03:05 - I can only imagine him furiously smashing coffee beans with a hammer screaming 'STEVE CARLSBURG'

[@maxinemalfoy424]

The fact that he hates his brother in law describes my family

[@NovaStella_]

Just thinking of that Night Vale day. Buildings are burning, cars are crashing everywhere, people are running in the streets screaming their heads off. Then there's Cecil, walking through the streets calmly going, "Man, I really need some coffee." Probably passing Steve in the street and hissing, "I'll bet you took the rest of the store's coffee beans, _Steeeeeve Carrrlsbuuuurg_." And muttering to himself down the road.

[@professionalnerd4055]

Omg😂 This is such a hilarious mental image, thanks!

[@forgemakesstuff2734]

[@rosem2901]

What if "her" is from Cecil's past? Think about it, it has already been well established in episodes like "Cassettes" that Cecil has practically NO memory of his past. Heck, even in this episode he can't remember how long he's worked for the radio station. So "her" could very well be someone Cecil helped and has literally no memory of doing so!

[@gayplasma]

I think she is talking about Faye from the numbers episode, but that's just my theory.

The water in my house was shut off this morning, and this afternoon I tune in, and here that Night Vale’s got the same problem. I think this isn’t the first time something like this has happened to me with this show, and I love it. Night Vale’s giving me a little wave. Also, my bet is that ‘her’ is Janice.

Everything would probably be melting, evaporating or burning, it would be difficult to be alive and breathe properly and it would be impossible to look directly at anything without at least three sunglasses on, so it would probably just be a normal day in Night Vale

Doesn't Desert Bluffs have more than one sun? Man, these past two episodes just got me thinking that Strex-Corp, in some way, is factoring back into the story. Definitely think Kevin is coming back and that Carlos is gone in the same way that Kevin is "gone". Just theories though. Maybe the unraveling is happening and the unraveling is actually what happened to Desert Bluffs. Thank the Glow Cloud for guns though right? Whew. But still....Carlos is most definitely, for sure, 100 percent, absolutely, without doubt....quite handsome and let's at least be thankful for that.

Cecil might not remember a “her” because of a possible re-education he went through with station management.
