“It’s irrational.”
“But it’s exhausting, too.”
THIS.
Cried through this entire scene the first time I saw it. If this doesn’t tear you up, I’m happy you had a healthy childhood lol
Didn't have a healthy childhood - I was just on edge the whole scene waiting for the narcissism to kick in tho 😅
you ain't never lied waiting for the other shoe honestly and I don't know if you meant it this way but what a cool way to acknowledging that others may not relate to this the same way, because I didn't cry but it still made me a little tense
I’ve seen it now like 10 times and cry just as much each time. For someone to put words to the ripple effects.
I literally cried during the whole episode
"I don't remember your mom."
"You don't wanna."
Devastating, devastating, devastating. So often abusers are just trying to protect the broken child within themselves. This line destroyed me because it shows the cycles of hurt and pain that cause generational trauma. Hurt in the place of love.
Thank god for the writers on this show. This is some of the realest depiction of generational trauma I've ever scene. This episode so laden with hope but still so filled with pain. But that's how it really is. Anybody who's been through it knows.
So true. Every word you said. 😢❤
@@elijahk357 That's my favorite line too. Heartbreaking.
Amen to that truth
However bad DeeDee was she was also clearly trying to protect them from someone much worse.
I had no idea Jamie Lee could do THAT. Just a remarkable performance by both of them - the way they fed off each other's emotions. Wow.
Never doubt *the* Final Girl.
Abby Elliot did an amazing job in this scene as well as the entire series.
This was seriously one of the most special scenes I have seen on TV. Obviously, like Sugar, we are anxious that her mom was the one to show up for her. I was waiting for one of the others to come, her husband, anyone. I felt angry towards her, for making it about her, but then, the scene goes on... wow. It felt so real- they finally got to talk things out, and this episode felt like one of those times the universe was placing you with the right person to help you, and they had this special opportunity of mutual connection and understanding. The way her mom is not all "bad"- you can see the love in her and what makes you love her, just like her kids do, at the end of the day. This wasn't the best season, but this episode was the standout (alongside Tina ep). So special, crying to the very end of the ep. They both did beautifully, but Jamie Lee is incredible. It truly felt like they are mother and daughter.
Yes, and life is both sweet and sad and it all worked so beautifully.
I cried the whole time when I 1st saw this scene. The roller coaster of emotions a woman feels while giving birth. A mother seeing her own baby giving birth and knowing how much pain she's in and how she's going to go through the contractions 100 more times.
“It’s not sweet. It’s fucked up”
Like that’s just a sentence that everyone can say but it being said IN THAT MOMENT meant so much more and dug really deep into what traumatized children go through even when they grow to be adults.
It IS fucked up. No one should ever have to feel terrible for doing that was supposed to be a good thing before it turned to indirect abuse. No one should ever have to be miserable just so the people they love can be happy. And no one should ever feel like everything they do isn’t enough no matter how long they try. The internalized “If I keep doing this then they’ll be happy” while not being guaranteed that it will finally make them happy is so damaging that not a lot of us can even recognize that giving up so much really isn’t sweet.
THIS. It's seen as "noble", meanwhile that person is struggling to be happy for themselves.
Watching this episode and I am reminded of why I (We) love Jaime Lee Curtis. She's amazing. She needs an award for this episode. A Prime time Emmy award something... Seriously!
This is the best work of Jaime Lee Curtis' legendary career. Tell me when I'm lying.
I wonder if those who were not abused as a child felt this scene as strongly as those who were abused felt it. Speaking for myself: The expressions on each face, the ebb and flow of communication between actors Curtis and Elliott so well done. I have rarely seen a movie/TV where the consequence of child abuse is so expertly conveyed. Generational trauma, which is just recently being acknowledged in American society. Not as strongly, as it should be. The wiring of Donna’s brain was
seriously damaged during her childhood until the brain stops growing at approximately age 25. Ms. Curtis facial expression, sliding from pain to love, seconds of terror rip across her face, a need to run and protect her daughter from a ghost that lives only in her implicit memory. Natalie’s facial expressions, wanting to protect herself and her child from her mother’s terrible pain and behavior, while simultaneously expressing love and empathy towards Donna as she rotates through the chaos of her mind. Critics were being hard on this season? I did dislike the cliffhanger, but a lot was conveyed emotionally in this season and I thank all who were involved.
Generational trauma. There are just too many families who suffer with it.
Jamie proving why she was worthy of that Oscar win!!!!! Phenomenal woman!!! Phenomenal Actor!!!
This show is perfect. It dwelves with the most intimate aspects of the human experience. From personal ambition, generational trauma, the complexity of relationships, etc. etc.
the monsters never realize they are monsters; that they are creating nightmares that may never go away...
Some of them are pretty convinced that their own children are the monsters. That makes them and the nightmares they create even harder to live with.
@@hippomancy If you’re referring to Donna, I believe she knows very well that she is broken.
I like to believe jamie Lee Curtis won her Oscar for this role because I don't know if they will ever acknowledge how great she is in this
Hands down the best scene off all time
Best comedy of the decade!
That was hilarious!! Best Comedy Series!!
@@GD-ec2xu 🤣🤣🤣 I know right
Hands down the most touching episode of The Bear!❤
This scene absolutely broke me. When she played the Ronettes, which was the song I walked down the aisle to, I was in floods. Floods. So heartbreaking.
By far the best episode of any TV series I have seen and that includes every episode of the highly acclaimed West Wing and the first which receives my personal rating of 10/10 for production, directing, acting and original script. The director in my opinion demonstrated so much confidence with both his stillness and in his actors to deliver with a camera positioned at 90% choke close ups. I was so impressed The quality of the predominantly two character driven narrative was so impressive. Unlike anything produced for a long time I offer. Flawless. One line change perhaps...When Donna replied she is trying when asked how is it going by Natalie. I would have changed the line remarked by Donna instead to: Its a lot of stuff.. Great stuff.
Faks at the end of this one destroyed me.
The one time this season their presence felt welcome.
What a hearbreaking scene. Cried!
Yeah Jamie Lee Curtis is getting back to back emmys
I think this might be one of my favorite seasons of TV of all time and this episode might be one of the best episodes I’ve ever seen.
I was going to make a comment on jamie lee’s incredible performance here but i was kinda blwon away by what sugar said. I see a lot of my own thought processes in her. In feeling that you are in trouble all the time. It can be exhausting
I swear to God if they don't give her an emmy for this...
Crying!
Omg a beautifull woman without the Kardashian plastic Jamie Lee you are so real and a real beauty
Is Donna ok?
@@pottytheparrot310 Oh, Natalie. Rose Berzatto! Do you know how much I hate when you ask me that? Do you KNOW... how much I HAaATE!... that you ask me that?
Can you please upload Donna's fish tank dream clip?
As someone who had a similarly terrible relationship with my mother, I found myself wishing for it to end as soon as it began. It also felt like a throw-away episode, like the budget was blown so let’s just put these two powerhouses in a room and hope for the best.
I have a DD like mom myself. I feel the opposite. Maybe pain is so hard that makes you think that way. Send you a big hug.
@@CanCanHikes Agree. It was a fuller episode that didn’t further the overall narrative
Yeah, but so what? The acting was incredible. I didn’t care about the rest of the show watching this. I was captivated by two of the best acting performances I’ve ever seen. And yes, I too have a terrible relationship with my mom. She reminds me a ton of this woman. And her parents? No picnic. It’s a pain and hostility that just keeps getting passed down.
I just "finished" this episode, I put it in quotes because I couldn't make it past the 15 minute mark I was so bored. I hear about this big emotional revelation between these to two characters, but I couldn't make it to that point because it sucked so bad, not sure I would have even cared if I did make it to be honest.
It is, in the simplest terms I can think of, an absolute insult to these two insanely talented actors that they have to share a billing and act in scenes with Ayo Edebiri. She drags the entire show down with such dull, predictable, and one-dimensional acting. So much so, I almost give up on it completely every time an episode showcases her or even has her as a supporting character. But I don’t. Because then you stay with the show and you get this. A full blown masterclass on what I think is just about the highest level of acting.
It’s no coincidence the best scenes don’t involve her lol 😂 tbh I like Sydney as a character but the show is the BEAR it’s about their family. Idk why this season spent half the episodes of Sydney not having the balls to either sign on long term or go pursue something different. Jesus Christ lol make a choice haha
Revolting over-acting. Worst episode ever. Who watched The Bear to see labour?
I agree 100% , this show is called The Bear. This whole season was a let down I didn't see any bears at all.
Yeah, what an atrocity. Bears have never in history been members of the UK Labour party, any bearbaby knows that.
stick to reruns of the big bang theory then chief
It's a very clarifying episode to understad why Michael killed himself, why Carmy and Natalie are like they are.... and that is important because.... they own the restaurant called The Bear.
Pain hurts so bad that (as Clair bear said) you don't feel it anymore. And then you watch an episode like this and found it nonsense. I undesrtand you. It hurts.
@@marimdq thank you. But I’m over birth/labour scenes (cliched and gratuitous), and I can’t stand Jamie Lee Curtis’ overacting. I too like some background info on main characters, but this just strayed too far from the core narrative for me. Felt like a filler episode IMHO and I fast forwarded through it. But I’m glad others enjoyed it of course.
Boring
Then go watch Transformers
Sociopaths of the world...here is your leader.
