Brain: "Okay, first off, this is incredibly historically inaccurate. A lot of this stuff is edited around out of order to make for narrative impact."

Sqrlmog: "Uh-huh."

Brain: "Second, this is overexposed as HELL. Like, c'mon, you won't play Undertale but you'll listen to the most overexposed Broadway musical in history?"

Sqrlmog: "Fair point."

Brain: "Third, while I could have put this under "historically inaccurate", the NARRATIVE functionality of this musical is incredibly emotionally manipulative. It's a heavy-handed lean right on the audience's sense of empathy so hard it's a wonder the whole thing doesn't fold in half and snap."

Sqrlmog: "Mmm."

Brain: "...okay, so why..."

Sqrlmog, eyes spilling over with tears: "THE MUSIC GETS REAL SAD AT THIS PART."

Brain: "...why is there no fucking coffee in this apartment. I need it."
