“We’re not like parents in tv dramas”

Right, more like parents in Shakesperian tragedies

Two more days guys! In the meantime, a mini analysis for you all!

The Romeo and Juliet act where they commit suicide is actually represented in Bad Buddy!

Remember this scene? aka the only moment we get to laugh in this curse ep?

Here me out. So we all now Bad Buddy is somewhat based on a modern version of Romeo and Juliet.

[Pat is Juliet. Fight me.]

So. In the ending of that tragic play we have the iconic sequence in which Juliet supposedly drinks a poison that kills her, but in reality just makes her appear dead. Then Romeo follows killing himself for real, and then, Juliet stabs herself, and the whole thing is a mess of non-communication.

So let’s compare, shall we?

1. We have Pat, “throwing away” his cellphone chip. Aka, Juliet faking her death.

2. We have Pran, doing the same right after Pat. Aka, Romeo actually following Juliet.

A this time we’re all like. Shit. They really did that.

But THEN

3. “Haha, you dummy!” Aka, no, Romeo, Juliet was not really dEAD! Pran really threw it out? He really actually killed himself?

4. Haha! You thought! Of course he didn’t! And then this:

“Do you really think I don’t know you?”

Here’s WHY I think this scene heavily shows a representation of the suicide scene in Romeo and Juliet:

Let me start with a question. How many of you would simply get rid of you’re phone number? Throw it away into the sea without a care? Throw away your whole life, cause FACE IT. It IS your whole life. Your family? Your friends, a huge part of yourself?

Exactly. You’d have to be in a lot of pain to do that right? Commiting suicide is the very last stage of indescribable pain. Throwing away the “heart” of your phone could be thought of as throwing away your life.

But they didn’t. Here’s where it obviously goes differently. Pran knows Pat to a point where he knows he would never do that. Pat knows Pran to a point where he knows Pran would never believe he’d do something like that.

Here’s where it doesn’t end up tragically. They both live.

Because they know each other. They understand each other. They communicate. They love each other too much to ask the other to take such risks.

And I think that’s beautiful.

Thanks for reading!

“you happy now?”

Riam is right here, my dear Kwan.

- It’s nothing 

- What do you mean?

- It doesn’t mean anything.

Pat, open the door! She’s your sister. But you’re my boyfriend.
