Bon Voyage, Agent Mega | SPIES ARE FOREVER Act 2 Part 7

The American Secret Service - A Few Days Later - Agent Mega, recovering from his encounter with Owen, makes an important decision about his future in espionage, but not before a series of tough goodbyes and new beginnings.
SPIES ARE FOREVER is a new musical that follows the suave, yet arrogant, Agent Curt Mega after a tragedy forces him to reconsider the unstable world of espionage. But before long, Mega finds himself thrust into the shadows of Cold War politics, entangled with a Russian femme fatale, and uncovering a super villain’s plot to rebuild the Nazi empire. With a license to kill and the voice of an angel, Mega must stay alive, complete the mission, and prove to his enemies that the deadliest weapon of all is a little song and dance.

Everyone’s saying they want a sequel. But I want a prequel, of Curt and Owen’s adventures, misadventures, and developing feelings for each other, before the incident

Owen's actually kidnapped by Chimera, and Curt has to save his boyfriend with Tatiana's help. -Gay -Curtwen/Cowen/Whatever -Tatiana -What even is angst?

Originally I was disappointed by the "bury your gays" trope it went with. But I fail to think of an alternative direction.

[@athena1491]

@@scw55 is it still that trope, like, the main character is still gay, or bi? is unclear, but, im not sure the trope applies here, i think there is a difference between a gay character dying in the story, and the author killing them off so they dont have to deal with them. Like, there is, "bury your gays", and then there is "sometimes people die, regardless of who they are", especially in a story that has such a high body count

Hoe Mazzello it wasn’t subtext though

[@threeleggedcat]

Musical Theater not in the end obviously but it isn’t explicitly said until this scene, it’s obvious in the confrontation between the two, and throughout when you already know, but when I first watched I just assumed it wasn’t because my experience told me it never is, but I still had the thought and that’s what I mean by this, it is ‘subtext’ until it is explicitly stated or clear enough that anyone can understand

[@musicaltheater8942]

Hoe Mazzello in the staircase scene, curt says “the time we shared, the feelings we had… for each other” which is really when it was confirmed

[@bravelymore8864]

When a person who is gay dates someone of the other gender to hide their attraction to their own gender the person they date is known as a beard because they are being used to cover up the first person's sexuality (like how a beard covers your face). Sometimes a gay man will date a lesbian like in Glee (Santana and Karofsky) so they both can hide their sexuality.

I have to say, of all TCB/Starkid-adjacent shows, this is probably the one that left me wanting to hear more, see more, learn more. And I don’t mean this in a bad way : the story’s straightforwardness and (relative) sobriety is one of its great qualities, it does a great job at being a pastiche rather than a parody. Being a big Bond fan, I was expecting the Trevelyan reveal from the very first second, and yet I was still completely engrossed by it, between the DMA cover (which I actually didn’t expect) and the romantic relationship (I saw the hints, but wasn’t daring to hope for more than a joke). Thanks to Curt and Joey’s beautifully restrained and heart-wrenching selling of their confrontation, the retrospective emotional intensity of both the first scene and, especially, the torture tango packs a freaking punch ; I keep coming back to them, thinking about everything lying under the surface. It’s just enough, and yet keeping me wanting more!

[@walshling16]

i think in the end, the most impressive part of this story is when it came down to it, owen couldn’t kill curt, curt was the one who killed owen. owen had the gun to curt’s head and he couldn’t pull the trigger because he still cared for curt, but curt didn’t care for him anymore

[@KTr0ck]

curt had already spent plenty of time grieving owen. he was shocked by owens return initially, but in the previous part, the more he chased after him the more he came to realize that the owen he knew and loved was indeed already long dead. and what loomed over him was nothing more than a ghost that he felt it was his duty to put to rest for good thats not to say that moving on will be easy for him, just that he knows the feeling well enough and now he even has friends to be his support system. so i dont think curt doesnt care anymore: i think hes trying to put it aside for the greater good, making an effort to consider his actions in a way that he hasnt before. this time he isnt running away from the consequences of his mistakes...

Omg I cannot express how much I love this show and how important it was to me. The entire cast is so talented- with such amazing voices!- the set and costumes were perfect, and the music is just UGH it almost annoys me how good the music is! So catchy and works so well with the story and characters I love it. The story is so well written as well, the journey and character development Tatiana went on was so well done and distinct, and she wasn't even the main character! I really enjoyed how this show embraced key well-loved tropes of spy stories but was also new and unique and did the unexpected. The second half of 'Doing This' made me so happy- a male-female friendship that doesn't progress beyond that or underrate the importance of friendship- in a spy story no less! As a queer person, I loved the Curt-Owen relationship reveal, it made me go back and rewatch the whole thing from the beginning seeing it in a completely new light. I thought the relationship was handled really well by both the writers and the actors, and act two part six absolutely broke my heart (which means it's doing it's job!) Well done to everyone involved, and if there is going to be a sequel I CANNOT WAIT.

I knew coming into this Curt and Owen dated. I saw and laughed at the ambiguity But as a pan person, hearing a queer main character be open about their sexuality without it being a big thing is amazing. Ester did it in Solve It Squad, and it made me so happy; this even more so. Thanks tcb!

[@sillyinq]

Why joe walker changed back into the cowboy outfit I don't know but I love that he did

[@lilly-b874]

Ok ok ok ok. We got impotant character development tea to spill. Ok basically we know curt just killed Owen as a way of 'getting over him' or some shit, and then in this scene with my girl Lauren he says 'always end on a high note I say' quoting Owen with an English accent, now I don't know about everyone else but I think it's a sign that he is no longer heart broken by the thought of Owen but can look back on his memories with Owen and smile because he has developed in a way that he knows he won't truly be able to forget his relationship with Owen but now remembers it in a nostalgic sort of positive way.

[@ashlynnheller8400]

So I for some reason like to torture myself and count the number of coustume each has and how many times they change so... Due to the dark lighting the characters in Spies are forever may not be completly accurate. There were two Russian men and i couldn't see who was playing them. Curt Mega Agent Mega #1 Agent Mega #2 Agent Mega #3 Agent Mega #4 Agent Mega #5 Agent Mega #2 Mary Kate Wiles Mystery Woman Tatina #1 Scientist Women in Casino Tatiana #2 Women who "loves" the prince #1 Tatiana #1 Tatiana #3 Tatiana #1 Tatiana #3 Lauren Lopez Cynthia Random Russian Women in restaurant Deadliest Man Alive acomplice #1 Cynthia #1 Scientist Waitress in Casino Gretel Cynthia #2 Mama Mega Prussian Prime Minister Mama Mega Cynthia Mama Mega Tessa Netting Barb #1 Random Russian Women in restaurant who slaps Curt Deadliest Man Alive accomplice #2 Barb #2 Woman in Casino Hedi Women who "loves" the prince #2 Barb #3 Barb #2 Al Fallick Random Russian Informant disquised as waiter Susan #1 Man in a Casino Informant disquised as dealer Wernher Susan #2 Informant disquised as woman Informan disguised as a Prussian Susan Joey Ritcher Owen #1 Sergio Scientist Man in Casino Owen Hans Owen Vanger Prussian Official #1 Owen #2 Joe Walker Random Russian Bartender Deadliest Man Alive Scientist Man in Casino Richard Big (Dick) Deadliest Man Alive man who "loves" the prince Random Dude Deadliest Man Alive Old Man Richard Big (Dick) Brian Rosenthal Oleg Random Russian Scientist Waitor in Casino Baron Van Nazi Vladimir Poopin Baron Van Nazi Curt has 6 Mary-Kate has 10 Brian has 7 Joe has 12 Joey has 10 Al has 10 Tessa has 10 Lauren has 14

[@priyat762]

Please let there be a prequel so we can see more Joey Richter with a British accent and see how curt and Owen got their six minute best

[@rosefranco2276]

Was it Lauren who choreographed that last number?

[@tincanbros]

She choreographed all the dance numbers!

[@rosefranco2276]

They're all brilliant!

[@yanetportillo5593]

+The Tin Can Brothers AWESOME WORK

[@gotosweetstxr]

If Owen miraculously survives in the sequel I am going to SCREAM- (also WHAT THE HELLLLLLLL I CANT BELIEVE THEY ACTUALLY PUT IN MEANINGFUL REPRESENTATION TCB AND STARKID ARE ACTUALLY A BLESSING-)

[@brooklyn9923]

they all bowed so in character wtf

[@sherdogholmes576]

Honesty the prop cigarette had me fooled really well in this show, it literally looks so realistic except for the few moments where you can see the metal ring around where Lauren holds it. Likely the prop e cigs

[@BestWishesBaz]

Wait, WHAT?!?!?!?!!?!?! YOU'RE NOT MESSING WITH US??????????? THERE'S GOING TO BE A SEQUEL?!?!?!!?!!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!!?!?!?

[@PrincessDiva702]

THey said in the livestream maybe but not until at least Winter 2017.

[@PrincessDiva702]

They also may do a prequel instead.

[@BestWishesBaz]

YES!!!!!!! That could be so great!

[@PrincessDiva702]

Curt and Owen's big gaycation?

[@MartynaPac]

You're reading in my mind! Best line ever: "What about our secret? It's time to share. Feelings we had... to each other.". Let's ship them ^^

[@ShesUrMan]

You’re telling me that this whole thing was a musical about spies??? No wonder I had no idea what was going on!!! They really should have told us that before the very last scene, jeez

[@musicalfan1159]

It’s been three years and I’m still waiting for a sequel.....

[@harpykrates]

So many people give Spy Dance so much hate- man it just gives me a lotta joy- like, it's one of those songs where as soon as I hear it I start dancing around, I love it

[@WhatsHerNameAgain]

Im glad at the end they did clarify this was a musical about spies. I wasnt quite sure

[@camicamcam14]

I don't think as a collective we talk enough about how Chimera won. Like. They have the super computers. All our information is basically for sale. All secrets are open. It makes the musical even more painful to watch because you want to side with Curt and you want to feel his hope, but we know, somewhere down the line, Chimera won.

[@maeline1570]

"Spies are forever, it's a musical.. IT'S ABOUT SPIES" 😂

Honestly seen this soooo many times and is one of my fav musicals, idk if its Lauren and/or both walker's and joey's British accents or just everything I F***ING LOVE THIS MUSICAL AHHHH

[@joeybunny8044]

Curt: Did my beard look ugly? Tatiana: I think you don’t need a beard to look cool aka heck yeah!

[@jeffblimisinahurry]

I. Am. OBSESSED. A couple days ago I watched the show, yesterday I listened to the cast recording, and today I watched the show again. Everything about this is just brilliant. It is laugh-out-loud funny, jaw-dropping dramatic, and the story is constantly taking incredible new turns. I adore the set and costume design and the lighting and sound were magnificent. All of the performers were pure geniuses and seeing them switch from character to character so quickly was just amazing. The acting was so well done, singing gorgeous - and the music (of course) and the libretto were absolutely awesome too! Seriously, I cannot say enough good things about this show. I have a new musical to put on my list of favorites. I can't wait for the sequel!!!

[@ahobbit1273]

This was so good! I thought it was weirdly short, but turns out it was just so good that I didn't realize how long it was. So many plot twists, catchy music, and great characters and acting! I really hope y'all are serious about a sequel!!! I love all of the og Starkids who are in this, and I haven't seen Mary Kate since the Lizzie Bennet Diaries! She's amazing.

[@camillechauve1352]

Have you seen any Shipwrecked projects?

[@flynn5011]

Ok but "Its not so easy burying your ex lover who returned from the grave to kill you" is basically the whole plot of this musical if you think about it

[@potatosaurrawr3628]

GUYS IS IT OVER AM I CRYING AHHH SPIES ARE FOREVER I LOVE YOU I LOVE THIS WHAT IS LIFE NOW

[@vanillaplanifoliae]

hi from 2023! love the show so much, it's truly wonderful

[@tincanbros]

Hello from the future? Sounds like Chimera technology…

[@lamarlatrell5045]

there needs to be a sequel in the 80's with lauren as the spy

[@ZainR]

This, and Poe Party are the some of the highlights of my summer. Thank you.

[@firewordsparkler]

So glad they timed it the way they did.

[@bxby_doll6796]

i love how curt just murders owen as a breakup and they’re just vibing dancing together in spy dance

[@letmepukeinyourmouth8520]

Everything about this musical was so well made and executed. It was spectacular.

[@greenhay6237]

"spies are forever it's a musical about spies" has the same energy as duder's a spy

God this was amazing, I loved everything about it! Fantastic music, phenomenal acting, incredible story! It subverted tropes in such a beautiful way and I'm honestly so grateful. Here's hoping there really is a sequel in the works!

[@starfox5165]

i can’t tell if i’m imagining it, but i swear DMA reaches to check his mask when curt says ‘owen?’ during torture tango. either way my heart was too busy breaking to notice the first hundred watches. this musical is too beautiful

[@penelopestoneee]

"it's not easy burrying your ex-lover returned from the grave to kill you" truer words have never been spoken

[@thatdisabledprincess]

I've heard people say that they don't believe Curt moved on from Owen this easily. I think they're right, Curt did not move on that easily. For the sake of the musical and wrapping up loose ends was why they show Curt moving on, I think. In reality, he would probably have a much more difficult time.

[@karmazballz]

8:00 “even when we’re buried six feet under the ground” dude that would be an amazing segment to like a sequel where somehow owen is still alive

[@Ray-hk1zm]

Y e s And Curt gets him the help he needs (because that boy needs help: "What happened to the man I knew" "It's a little late for an interview" "You're dead" "Well, part of me is" and a couple other lines imply - at least, to me - that Chimera seriously screwed him up, and I hope-believe that he can be saved) And They Fall In Love And It's O k a y .

Second watch, and this time the golden sentence "Spies are forever, it's a musical, it's about spies" managed to make me at least smile. In other circonstances it would have me dying of laugher, but that previous scene takes away all my happiness and joie de vivre so...
