Christopher Lee said that turning down the role of Dr. Loomis was his greatest regret, and while I certainly would have loved his take, Donald Pleasence WAS Dr. Loomis in role, voice and spirit. Rest in peace.
Donald pleasance was the best fir this roll. Look up escape to victory this was a classic my friend
@@RJstudiosYT Wrong, he was a choice for Loomis along with Peter Cushing the man who played Grand Moff Tarkin they both turned it down. Lee did say he regretted turning the role down and that it was his biggest mistake in his career. They both turned it down due too the low pay which isn't surprising since the first halloween film didn't have the biggest budget.
Just look it up.
@The Automator John Carpenter and Debra Hill both said it in an interview later on. I think it was at an Halloween anniversary b4 Debra Hill passed away
@NotaHero🎭of911 you stupid idiotic fool
I said Christopher lee turned down grand moff tarkin.
I never said Donald pleasance auditioned.
Read carefully next time fool.
Donald Pleasance was perfect as Dr. Loomis. Christopher Lee - who is of course great - wouldn't have been as good, and the movie would not have worked as well as it did.
The whole movie is legitimized with this scene and Pleasance's acting. He looks and sounds as if he truly believes what he's saying
YES! This is the scene that sold HALLOWEEN.
I totally agree. I think this scene is what made this movie more than just a simple slasher movie. An absolute classic.
Yes
This is the best scene in the film with the music, without it, the film would not have been the same
Listen to his voice shake just saying, "I met him......".
Bracket: "A man wouldn't do that."
Loomis: "This isn't a man."
Loomis, you rock. RIP Donald Pleasance.
It's the boogeyman
Do you all like Halloween (2018) ?
Bravo and a round of applause to Dr Loomis for calling out that bigoted cop - How dare he assume Michael Myers' gender!
Chills
@@dashiesbbgurl
Correction..Michael is the cucuy..🎃
Easily one of the most iconic and well-acted monologues in horror movie history. Donald Pleasence's performance elevated the entire film.
In any movie history.
Donald Pleasence has been in some bad movies, he has been in some great movies. But he is excellent in all of them. A true professional.
Agreed he was an expert on Michael to bad nobody would listen to him
Absolutely he was and always will be the best to ever do it
His acting is absolutely dreadful, lmao.
THIS is how you do exposition. Loomis’ tone of voice and mannerisms tell more about how dangerous Michael is than any dialogue alone could
Exactly storytelling at its best
It helps if you've got a terrific actor
They had to fight to get him to do this film. Later he was glad he did it. The role is priceless.
@@kaihunlu2345 I had no idea
You don't know what dialogue is
The fact that Loomis admits he’s scared shows how powerful this scene is.
Really adds a whole "I'm scared" "Good. You should be"
But he soldiers on.
"The darkest eyes.
The Devil's eyes."
Most memorable quote of the Halloween series.
One of My Favorite Dr Loomis Quotes Bar None!
The blackest eyes*
Wrong, it's definitely: Trick or treat, muthafukka! 😂😂
@@stevennieto9898😂
“ yeah Mikey you lookin like a chicken fried mutha fucka “ 😂
Donald Pleasence could turn even the most hokey dialogue into Shakespeare. Great movie made even greater by a great actor. Rest in Peace.
Pleasence made this movie work. There's a reason the sequels he was in are actually watchable to an extent thanks to him. Even in declining health he gave his all in this part. He was an amazing actor.
He was a great actor.
You should watch wake in fright if you like Donald Pleasance in horror.
Donald was fantastic here because of the uncertainty in the tone of his voice and the delivery of his lines. He speaks them the way you would expect someone in his position to speak them. Stammering here and there, pensive looks darting across his face, and looking extremely nervous the whole time. This is what it means to suspend disbelief. Amazing acting.
Disbelief and fear.
May he Rest In Peace
And that’s why Michael Myers scares the hell out of me.
Jason kills cause people keep coming onto his turf and won’t leave him alone.
Michael kills simply because he’s evil.
Plus Jason has a limit to who he won't kill (kids)
@@FreshPrincex4 and animals. Michael is like this knife is Rated E for Everyone lol
No Michael doesn't kill kids even the rob zombie one doesn't kill kids
@@ripper6342 he killed a kid in the 2018 Halloween film
And he tried to kill his niece during that curse mark storyline
@@FreshPrincex4 Ah okay I forgot about that
"I met this 6 year old child with this blank pale emotionless face, and... the blackest eyes...the devil's eyes"
It's curious the way how Loomis describes Michael's face and the description is exactly what the mask looks like. What a creepy coincidence
Which is why I always hate scenes where you can see Michael's eyes; much better when it's just the black shadows.
@Adanus. It's as if Michael's wearing a mask of his own face basically.
It was the boogeyman
I wonder what they used to black out the eyes.
@@paulanthony5274 makes it feel like no ones under there, pure and simply evil
Donald Pleasance should have won an OSCAR for this role. A shame the award shows weren't all that into horror films back then.
The Exorcist was nominated for 10 Oscars, including Best Picture, in 1973. Rosemary's Baby won a Best Supporting Actress for Ruth Gordon in 1968.
The Deer Hunter won Best Picture for 1978 which also garnered an award for Best Director and Best Supporting Actor for Christopher Walken.
Halloween is a decent film, but it's far from Oscar bait.
@@TheRSTD1 Wasn’t the Omen nominated at the Oscars, too?
@@cashthecurator666 you’re absolutely correct, it won an Oscar for Best Original Score!
@@TheRSTD1The Deer Hunter is a horror movie? Never been into "genre" simplification when it comes to movies. Here's a deliberate, carefully written, obvious (a short sentence or word association within a paragraph is plenty enough) to get two things: unwarranted attention. exposure. The later might be unintentional.
John Carpenter at the very least should have got an Oscar nomination for best original score for Halloween.
Can't think of any other director who is capable of composing original music to their own movies off the top of my head.
The best part is the emotional pain from Loomis' realization that all of his professional expertise couldn't even explain the evil that lies within his patient. Great scene.
He IS evil. He's not a man. He's a force of nature. He's the bogeyman. The monster under your bed. The shadow on the wall. The shape. And that makes him, in my opinion, the most chilling and terrifying slasher of all. Freddy and Jason inspire fear. Micheal IS your fear
That’s the difference between Halloween and Friday the 13TH, the Michael / Loomis connection. Loomis adds to mystery of Michaels psychosis, Jason just runs around hacking away.
Have you seen the first Friday 13th?
irrelevant to my statement.
Not really.
Really.
Guess what?
Nothing's wrong with either approach.
LOVE the matter of fact way Dr. Loomis admits he's scared, such a great moment. Kay S
Hell yes, no shame in admitting it, Loomis knows what they're dealing with =P
I looked for this scene for that specific part.
You know Michael is so dangerous when even Dr Loomis, the one person he had any connection to and understands him the best, is afraid of him
That's the moment Brackett realises this is bad.
I think Loomis being scared is what makes the audience so scared.
Can we just acknowledge what a savage Dr. Loomis is. “I’m going to wait for him.” Wtf!?
He knew Michael had to be stopped at all cost, even his own life
He knew Michael was beyond cure, beyond anything but destruction.
Michael will never hurt go after him haven’t y’all notice that it’s safe to be around loonies at all times because Michael doesn’t see him as a threat more like a father figure
@@ivanpadron9372 he stabbed the shit outta him what u talking about??🤣😂😂
@@daro-ri5ns If you watch the original series before they retconned them, you'll see the stuff michael does to Loomis is pretty tame compared to what he is capable of, some examples are.
Halloween 2: A non lethal scalpel stab to Loomis's stomach, keep in mind it takes place in the same night as halloween 1, and he's already killed 16 people by that point.
Halloween 4: Doesn't kill Loomis at the Diner. Throws him through a glass door at the school to get him away from jamie(again not fatal).
Halloween 5: Non fatal cut to his stomach and throws him off about a 3 foot high stair, and proceeds to ignore him and make his way upstairs.
Halloween 6: They don't ever see eachother in this one.
Michael Never kills Loomis despite all the chances he had. I think this is because in some strange way, Loomis will for ever be his only "friend" and i am using that term loosely.
This isn't a man!!!
Dr loomis R I P DONALD
u were the BEST
Great actor
The way he says that line is chilling.
A great British actor at that
he was a dedicated and great doctor who made house calls.
"isn't"
Great english actor
The sheer terror and horror in Loomis voice.
He knows what Michael is and what he is capable of and still he followed him,trying to stop him. He is brave for sure but on the other hand he is as terrified as one could get..
Donald Pleasence was brilliant as Dr Loomis. He actually does sound nervous and scared, like even though he knows what Michael is, he still feels like he doesn’t exactly know what he is up against. Great acting.
2:59
"I've spent 8 years trying to reach him, and then another 7 and tried to keep him locked up because I realized of what was behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply...evil. And I think he'll come back.."
This man literally made the series on his own it feels empty without him in the newer films the elements he brought to the table are irreplaceable.
Agree, It would been great if he was still here, But I wonder would he be still playing Loomis today
@@deontaedouglas it would be a miracle he’d be over 100 years old he was 75 when he passed. It’s sad because in Halloween 6 the director disrespected him so badly that’s why we didn’t see him a lot in that movie.
@@robertbarber1198 Wow, I didn't know the director did that to him, It's sad Halloween 6 was his last movie
@@robertbarber1198 how did he disrespect him
@@secretlygray "they felt the film could carry without Dr. Loomis so his scenes were cut more and we saw less of him"
What's brilliant about this scene is that it feels like Michael is in it. Even though you've seen this movie so many times and know he's not there, you can just feel his presence. Carpenter knew what he was doing with this movie
So True and The First Time I Watched This Scene When I Was 17 I Had Chills in My Spine!
To all the film snobs who say ‘show don’t tell’ I give you this scene as proof that it’s okay to tell when your actor has a great delivery.
That's one thing. The actor. Then there is the writing. Also direction.
Because some things you're not able to show. You have to tell them.
And this is how you do it.
When it comes to horror, less is sometimes more. John Carpenter really knew what the fuck he was doing.
No way, JJ Abrams has it right. just do dozens of mystery boxes that never need to get resolved and flashy effects.
One of my favorite scenes ever. The brief monologue is so perfect. Perfectly written, perfectly performed, and perfectly scored. The way he exhales and looks up as he says “I met this...”, cued with the piano keys, is just magic. You completely feel and believe that this man is trying his best at describing an indescribable, pure, unearthly evil, and it lends such a heavy and profound presence to Michael Myers, even when he’s not around.
2:28 - “I met him, 15 years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this 6-year-old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face and, the blackest eyes... the Devil’s eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized that what was living behind that boy’s eyes purely and simply... evil.”
After telling Dr Loomis that he was "just plain scared", he hears this and is like, "holy shit fk", but says, "what do we do?"
The Greatest Quote Ever in Any Horror Movie!
It's eyes not face.
E-ville
Loomis ❤️
To me, this scene personifies why Halloween is the king of Horror movies. It's completely and utterly atmospheric, you feel the danger, the fear and harrowing stakes that are here. Some of the most horrifying and most captivating visuals and imagery ever, some shots make the goosebumps come alive and Pleasance's monolouge make the film feel human, grounded but almost sinister and supernatural like. He creates the idea of a real life boogeyman that will stalk you. A perfect film in my eyes, just perfection.
Michael was just 21. Damn. He was basically still just a kid
a 21 year old isn't a kid.
PUNKem733 a 21 year old is most definitely a kid in this world. A 21 year old has their whole damn life ahead of them, lmao.
And now he's 61 in the sequel. Evil never dies.
PUNKem733 micheal sort of is though because he was arrested when he was six and then stopped talking, so he really is just a 6 year old in a mans body
21 is not a kid!
Charlie Cyphers doesn't get enough credit for his role as Sheriff Brackett. You're the Man Charlie!!
More fancy talk
Still one of the greatest horror villain explanations, and one of the greatest movie lines of all time.
Donald Pleasence really brought more atmosphere such a great actor R.I.P God bless
was excellent the real man
I like the line, “You must think me a very sinister doctor.”
Sinister! I thought he said sensitive but it didn’t fit quite well. Also the way he says “Oh I do have a permit.” And shows it to the sheriff. He’s kind and scared.
One of the greatest monologues in cinema history. Flawless acting.
This and Quint’s monologue
Loomis was the counter balance to Michael's evil.
The series would never have done as well without Donald. He made the Loomis character his own and was (in my eyes) equally as important as Michael Myers in these films.
This is my favorite scene out of all the Halloween franchise because it just proves the evilness inside Michael and how terrifying he's become. Donald Pleasence sells the act showing just how terrified he is of Michael 🤌👌
Mine Too and The First Time I Watched This on VHS This Scene Was So Well Done When I Was 17 Years Old Then I Became a Fan of The Movie!
This whole speech is terrifying. It’s the most chilling dialogue I’ve ever heard. Donald Pleasance was a master. Such a underrated actor.
God rest his soul.
The one thing that makes Dr. Loomis so heroic to me in this, he admits he is afraid. Without hesitation, without and chest pounding, but he steps up to the plate nonetheless.
Finally someone praising the hero of the horror movie instead of the slasher killer.
Fun fact: John carpenter was inspired to create michel myers, when his class took a trip to a mental institution in Kentucky and he saw a young boy with the "most evilest eyes, the devil's eyes", as donald pleasance described in 1978s haloween (original).
Donald Pleasence is such a gifted actor. He explained the force behind Michael so perfectly
Donald Pleasance was so brilliant in this role. The character was so convincing in how genuinely scared of what only he knew Michael Myers was. It's almost as if he knew that he couldn't be stopped.
No joke, that door smashing the window actually frightened me. Shows every action was given lots of attention, even if they’re not remembered
I Love the music and how it goes so well with the eeriness of the Myers house, this scene really does make the film, without it it really wouldn’t be the same
2:44-3:10 the quote that started the whole franchise
E-ville
You cannot underestimate the importance of Donald Pleasance in the success of Halloween. He is Michael Myers nemesis and you get the feeling Michael himself likes having him around as much as the audience did. Only Loomis truly appreciates the evil that lurks within him.
In the official comic, death of Loomis, Michael Shows up just tae watch Loomis die.
This scene defines not only Michael but the franchise he is not a human he is The Shape and cannot die.
"I met him 15 years ago I was told there "
was nothing left no reasoning, no conscious, no understanding and even in the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this six-year-old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and, the blackest eyes, the devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because what I realized what was behind that boy's eyes was simply, and purely evil."
-Dr Samuel Loomis
Donald Pleasance got this role, because Christopher Lee's agent rejected it without consulting Lee. Lee was mad and fired the agent after watching Halloween. Christopher Lee as Samuel Loomis? Yeeeeaaaaah
Really I never knew that. As good of an actor Christopher lee was I honestly couldn't see anyone else but Donald pleasance playing this role.
I could imagine Christopher Lee bringing a certain notion of impending doom with his voice and tone which might have been epic, but Donald Pleasence delivers a much “creepier” feeling and the sense of abandoned sympathy that just feels right, dare I say perfect for this movie.
Lee would have been great as Loomis no doubt, but would he have done all the sequels? I don't see that happening. Donald Pleasance was the perfect choice for this role.
Only problem is that Lee is so often a bad guy, with a great villain's voice, that we'd be wondering if he was secretly in league with Michael for the whole movie.
As great as Lee was it was a blessing in disguise that he passed and we got Sir Donald.
This piece of music HAS to be featured in Halloween Returns. Definite foreboding/creep-factor for the audience. John Carpenter will definitely repeat this theme...
It wasn't Halloween returns in the last movie
man its the atmosphere, something many horror films dont have :(
You got your wish in Halloween kills 😩
What I like about Donald is,he wasn't greedy and took the part,unlike the other british actors who turned it down and because of this he became the icon along with Mm that is Halloween so fair play to him....
Christopher Lee was offered the role and turned it down, I believe he said something to the effect of one of his biggest regrets.
@@JnEricsonx Yes. Also Peter Cushing turned it down.
Officer: "Could have been a skunk. No man would do that"
Dr. Loomis: "This is no man"
No skunk would do that either. Also, chills set in.
Donald Plesence is a pleasant presence
Donald Pleasance is a fantastic actor. I love him in this film.
To bad his talents where wasted in the awful sequels.
The fact Michaels origins remains a mystery, what drove him to kill at age 6, and he spent his childhood, early years as an adult and of course his whole life (40 years) in a mental hospital is brutal
Just think.... He gived up his life at the age of 6
H6 gave explanations like so satanic cult and curse etc
Rumors say that Halloween ends coming out next year too bas some reasoning and explanations regarding Micheal's past and killing reason
Hope they would make us shocked
@@abhijithanilkumar4959 Technically none of that is canon anymore because of the 2018 reboot
As long as those explanations leave us with more questions than answers I'm good with it.
I was an odd 90's kid (others at school told me so). Dr. Loomis was a childhood hero of mine. He just struck me as a total badass.
There's something magical about John Carpenter films. Directed perfectly... composed his own music. I re-watched this in the theater the other night. It was crowded... and DEAD SILENT. People didn't even want to chew popcorn because of the suspense. I don't usually hear a packed theater that quiet.
Donald Pleasance's presence in the Halloween movies made them more relevant.
The greatest monologue in horror history
FUN FACT: The role of Dr. Loomis was first offered to Christopher Lee but he turned it down. And years later in an interview Lee would call it the biggest mistake ever in his life.

Creep Me Da Fuck Out That Story Some Else🤦🏾♂️
The lines, Donald P's delivery of them and Carpenter's simple, but sinister score make this scene so great.
Donald Pleasant is one of the best protagonist on film. Too bad he couldn't make this upcoming Halloween. He would've killed it.
(Pun intended).
As much I love Loomis’s character and given that Donald was 59 when he did this film, if he didn’t pass away in 1995 and lived 23 years longer, he would’ve been 99 at the time of the 2018 film
He sets the tone for the entire movie.
I have to admit that I had never watched a Halloween film up until 3 years ago. I was always into Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street. After seeing nearly every Halloween film in the last 3 years, I can say without a doubt I prefer the Halloween franchise now. A lot of that is due to the Loomis character. His pursuit and obsession of stopping Micheal Myers is what makes this franchise so good in my opinion. This was a very good film for it's time, and this scene here is so memorable. What a great performance by this incredible actor.
One of not just scariest scenes ever but BEST scenes ever. Gives me goosebumps every single time. Like it stops U dead in ur tracks n just holds u. Vulgar display of power lol
He fears Michael and yet he'll wait and face him alone... cause Loomis was a total boss and played to perfection by the late, great Donald Pleasence. My 2nd favourite character of this franchise behind Michael and ahead of Laurie
11 years later this cop was the GM of the Cleveland Indians.
?
There’s jake Taylor
Major League love that movie
Lou brown (rip) this is Charlie Donovan GM of the Indians.. How do you feel about coaching in the bigs this year?
Best baseball ball movie of all time😂
it's amazing to think that this film made on a shoestring budget would go on to be an iconic, classic film and would propel jamie lee curtis into superstardom.
And john was only 30!
We miss you, Dr. Loomis!
Yea sam
I love how he instinctively pulled out the strap when the window broke 😂
If you were a psychiatrist who had a 15 year history with a patient like Mike Myers, and knew the depths of his evil, wouldn't you be scared out of your mind, and defend yourself?
@@kaijufan6246 You would be but he doesn't have a clue lol
I think it made the scene better
“They may be right” hahaha loomis is so melodramatic I love it
he's hilariously hammy in almost everything he's in.
Now that Loomis is dead, Laurie will have to deal with Michael herself. But I think that's what she wants.
Not like she really knew Loomis anyway, he was just some crazy old guy who busted into the house she was at and shot Michael, then showed up at the hospital later and shot Michael again, then blew himself up.
That's the problem with any new Halloween film. No Loomis.
@@billjacobs521 Not the hospital bit, Halloween 2 isn't canon anymore. And I'm pretty sure they did get to know each other a bit after Halloween.
I wish they didn’t get rid of loomis in halloween 2018.
This is a REAL example of a scene which proves that that "show-don't-tell" cliche is utter nonsense. This is without doubt a scene where telling is FAR BETTER than showing!
This is one of my favorite films of all time. I've seen it countless times, and damn do I get chills every time I see this scene!
This Movie is One of My Favorite Horror Movies and The First Time I Watched This Film on VHS When I Was 17 I Had Chills Big Time Now I Have Halloween on DVD!
Classic movie and also the way Donald Pleasance explains about Michael Myers being a psychopath is quite chilling
It’s amazing how John Carpenter and Donald Pleasence were able to make the scariest scene in the movie a scene where Michael Myers wasn’t even in! Tommy Lee Wallace was right: It’s not what you see, it’s what you DON’T see…
The fact that Michael Myers isn’t present, yet talked about in such a way that can elevate the fear in the audience is phenomenal. Mr. Pleasence, you were born to play Dr. Loomis!!
True and Donald Was Great in This Film While John Did One Hell of a Job Directing!
It's subtle but the thing I love most about this scene is how quickly Loomis admits that he's afraid of Michael. Yes he's hunting him and yes he has a gun on him but he doesn't underestimate how evil Michael is!
One of My Favorite Scenes in This Classic Horror Movie Which I’ve Been a Fan of Since I Was 17 Years Old in 2007!
Saw this in the 90s when I was 5 or 7, still the best in 2022!

2:08 Donald does a wonderful job here of a terrified doctor who knows how dangerous his patient is, he looks completely on edge, what a great actor he was and helped make this film a classic.
Halloween wouldn’t have been the same without Donald Pleasance. Magnificent man.
I jumped when the window broke LoL
jack sammy so did I.

As did I. All those years ago.... saw it the 2nd week of it's initial run. Packed theater.
I did too
@@lidettemicciche6418 no you are
One of my favorite things about this movie is how the house looks like that. But during production they made it look it did during the opening scene at the end of production.
Also, this scene alone is arguably the best scene of the entire Halloween franchise.
Theres something about dr Loomis which is vital for horror movies but often missed. A good honorable person willing to fight the good fight. To stand his ground against the shape.
Without the light of good the darkness of evil drowns in apathy.
Some of the creepiest music in horror history.
Agreed The Music of Halloween 1978 Never Fails To Give Me Chills!
Without Donald Pleasence, Halloween wouldn’t have been the Same.
The police “what do we do?” Makes me laugh for some reason ...he’s thinking like oh shit lol
I've been a Halloween fan ever since I first watched this in the theater back in 1978. I was 5 years old and it's just as impactful now as it was back then. Over the years I compare this to the classic story Moby Dick. Michael Myers is the imposing entity wreaking havoc and mayhem and Dr. Loomis is the brave, steadfast and obsessive hero Capt. Ahab. Actually I recommend watching the first 2 Jaws movies and the first 2 Halloween movies. You definitely see a thematic connection.
11 years later the Myers house somehow becomes a mansion where Dr Loomis beats the shit out of Michael Myers with a 2x4
Dude, no other slasher has even been described this way, not only is he killable and human, but he is described as the definition of evil and his drive for bloodshed is so potent, that he is welling to risk death just to kill, how is Michael no your favourite (if his already not)
Both actors did a superb job in having the competing theories on whether Michael is a man or maybe…….. something else. The music adds the sense of apprehension in such a simple way. It’s amazing what you can come up with when you’re on a budget but have imagination.
Donald Pleasence was born for the role of Dr. Loomis. He absolutely dominated this performance.
This scene really summed up how evil and terrifying Michael is 💯
Agreed 100% and The Backstory by Loomis is Amazing!
@@vinceniederman💯👍

It gets tiresome. I hope you can understand,
"I'll check back ina hour" lmfao
Hands down the best lines of dialogue in the entire halloween franchise and beautifully acted by the late Donald Pleasence. R.I.P. Always be my Dr. Loomis
So the sheriff wanted to warn people through the media, but Michael's shrink told him not to? Way to go Loomis! Those kids died because of YOU!Nah just kidding. Great scene and great actor.
That is such a brilliant piece of acting -wow. “The darkest eyes - the devils eyes”
One of the best scenes in the film.
That, and where Dr. Loomis spooks the kids away from the Myers' house. (Low voice, but still able to carry), "Hey! Hey, Lonnie. Get your ass away from there!" The satisfied grin he gets from seeing those 3 bolt is priceless!
One of the best scenes in film history.
No shade to Rob Zombie's version but this scene alone tells us all we needed to know about Micheal Myers, no background story was needed.
Everything in a nut shell 🐚
Tells the sheriff that Michael is purely evil and then says I'm going to wait for him to come back 😂. Straight up G.
“He got hungry” mega chills after that 😂😂
