Two Liam Neesons Kidnap Each Other's Daughters - Animated

[@samreich]

I LOVE this

[@DeepBlueInk]

Thanks Sam! ❤️

[@placeholderdoe]

Does the R in dropout stand for Reich or am I pulling at straws?

[@commentor93]

​@@placeholderdoeOh, youre absolutely grasping at straws, the first one being thinking that Dropout is an acronym despite them not giving any reason for that.

[@placeholderdoe]

@@commentor93 I thought it was an Easter egg, like how in Star Wars they constantly mention darth Vader. If you look closely you can see he is mentioned in a lot of the earlier movies, tying them all together universe wise

[@commentor93]

@@placeholderdoe Where is Vader mentioned in the Prequels? Or are we talking about the original trilogy in which he is the main antagonist of the first two movies? And either way, there's a difference between an Easter egg in movies and an acronym, especially when the acronym is never mentioned or addressed in any other context.

[@greenredblue]

"I have a _particular_ set of skills" being used to mean "I don't have many skills" is hilarious.

[@Axius27]

"I have a particular lack of skills"

[@MiracleMags]

Brutal to ask his remaining daughter to drive him to the airport when she’s clearly just made that cup of tea

[@aria5614]

I think she knew the negotiations would take awhile longer

[@basementdwellercosplay]

You can't have the cup on the way, that's just uncivilized!

[@chucknasty1732]

Not only that, but it seems like Cassie is on the table as a bargaining chip to get the other two daughters back

[@sonablom]

Plus he doesn’t drive! He has a particular set of sills, but that doesn’t include driving.

[@lisah-p8474]

​@@aria5614 She's clearly seen this happen before. You can tell by how completely nonplussed she is by the whole situation.

[@joganesha4151]

The whole thing stopped being a kidnapping situation and more like 2 guys trading daughter-shaped pokemon cards

[@Mechenthusiest]

Or organizing daughter sleepover transportation responsibilities.

[@sarah.s.flanagan]

Can we all just appreciate the varied circumstances that had to come together in order for the phrase "daughter-shaped pokemon cards" to make sense?

[@3possumsinatrenchcoat]

"and for the second daughter I'll offer a holographic rosiated spoonbill..."

[@JDM-is-my-name]

​@@Mechenthusiestwith the way Cassie is acting, it might as well just be two very confused dads who did not understand how to organise the sleep over

[@zoezelni1757]

Wait, which is the 1st edition and which is the "shiny"?

[@goplayer7]

"I have a particular set of skills." "I also have a particular set of skills." "Maybe I can train you in one of my skills that you are missing for my other daughter?" "No, because then my set would no longer be particular."

[@mudfish6861]

I like how confused both Liam Neesons got when deciding how to do the daughter trade. I especially love how unbothered any of the daughters seem to be and how agreeable Cassie is, even after her father Liam Neeson asked her to drive him to the airport

[@PaganBibliophile13]

Cassie does not care, at all, that her two sisters have been kidnapped.

[@DarkHarlequin]

My headcanon is that this happens not infrequently and Cassie is quite used to having daughter hostages in the household 😁

[@sprightlyoaf9583]

Maybe this is like an exposure therapy dealie

[@gothicbutterfly013]

Its not a hostage situation, its a custody agreement/dispute.

[@yuki97kira]

Its just a regular tuesday

[@TRquiet]

I love the Daughter Tea Party. Like, they’ve been through this before, they’re just trying to stay cordial while the Liams work out the plans.

[@jeremysmith7176]

This is just two dad's figuring the logistics of getting kids home after a miscommunication on the daughters of whose house they were hanging out at.

[@LibraryAce]

Cassie and the other Liam's daughter are dating now. He'll have to return her sisters to help plan the wedding.

[@m.jasondoty9062]

"It's been the third time this month..."

[@namara-ashina]

Clearly, the solution is that they should get married so that they have FOUR daughters between them

[@panickedscorpio3308]

And they wouldn’t even need to change their last names

[@dialog_box]

THIS

[@loreleiloriestone9179]

You're right and you should say it!

[@AbhorrentDelight]

New Brady Bunch idea just dropped

[@aandyy4791]

This is blatant Cassie erasure and I won’t stand for it.

[@mortua_conjuga]

i keep watching this. "then again i've always wanted a big family" makes me think that the liams should get married and then they'd have all their daughters in one place.

[@averycheesypotato]

If they don’t sort out the daughter situation and go find the kidnapped wife/wives? quickly, they’ll both be single and have no choice

[@AmericanArchon]

Unless this is a very messed up custody hearing.

[@3possumsinatrenchcoat]

he has a very particular set of skills. multiverse negotiating is not one of them.

[@nebulamess6875]

And driving is also not one of them

[@TransCattyAcid]

DBI has a particular set of skills. Mostly making funny bits even funnier.

[@stealthlock6634]

I was reveling in the one guy’s superior impression of Liam Neeson, until the other guy dropped that hilarious and genius use of “yeah I mean,, I have a *particular* set of skills,,??”

[@DarkHarlequin]

By how carefree Cassie is, can we kind of infer that this happens more often than you'd think? She was very much giving 'Teenage daughter who doesn't mind what her dad is doing but is also kind of doing her own unrelated thing' vibes to me 😅😄

[@AdmiralWinfrey]

Cassie is just glad she wasn't Taken this time. There isn't a rotation system for the daughters, so it's literally "catch as catch can," and Cassie got Taken like five times last month. She earned that break.

[@salenstormwing]

The diagram makes this so much better. Maybe if both Liam Neesons were there, they could BOTH figure out the diagram together. I'm pretty sure they both have a particular set of skills...

[@TheSabadine]

Thank god for the whiteboard 😂

[@doctorwhom1]

I choose to believe that they're married and this is very aggressive father-daughter-daughter-daughter-daughter-father bonding time negotiation.

[@caitlin4598]

They're trying to figure out custody of their respective step kids.

[@tortillachips3911]

This concept makes it so much better

[@isa-belva]

"don't talk to me or my daughter or my daughter or my daughter or my daughter ever again." "ONE OF THEM IS _MY_ DAUGHTER"

[@ffreed]

@@isa-belva”Fine, then THAT one is your daughter.” “No, that’s the neighbor’s kid, whom you ALSO somehow managed to kidnap.”

[@sylph8005]

Seems more like they’re divorced

[@Nightfire613]

This is just two dads of a friend group who did NOT coordinate the sleepover properly

[@freddogrosso9835]

Cassie with the "ah, sure". She's the good one, Liam!

[@PichuBro8]

This is just what coordinating multiple kids across a divorce is like.

[@U.Inferno]

I enjoy Cassie for what small of a presence she has. She seem pretty chill and along for the rides while her dad is arguing with his clone.

[@johnnyshortfor]

Love how the lighting makes it look like they each tied up their own daughters based on skin tone XD I only realized that wasn’t it when Casey walked in and didn’t match her kidnapped sisters!

[@AmphibiousGentleman]

Honestly that was the one bit I found slightly confusing.

[@LordCrate-du8zm]

This is definitely some kind of paradox. Liam Neeson kidnaps another Liam Neeson's daughter, but the other one did the same. So, who did it first?

[@Shatterverse]

Liam Neeson, obviously.

[@airplanes_aren.t_real]

They both did it at the same time

[@man-throwing-thing]

This is just Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

[@DiabeticDivine]

I think the one that took two daughters. He stole one first, then the other Liam Neeson took his in retribution, and then the initial Liam Neeson took the second daughter

[@man-throwing-thing]

@@DiabeticDivine but why would Liam Neeson kidnap Liam Neeson’s daughter in the first place?

[@maxfieldhamel6569]

Man shared custody for the Neeson family seems rough

[@excrubulent]

"Yeah, I mean I have a *particular* set of skills" just came unbidden into my mind and I had to look this up again.

[@tortillachips3911]

As an artist, I instantly noticed the slightly different colors of the two Liams, so my brain assumed it was a lighting difference before I saw ANY daughters, but I also like the theory that they're a couple and working out custody/family time, and that's why it looks to so many people like "they kidnapped their own daughters"

[@ryangriffin1998]

"I also have YOUR other daughter" "But I only have the one daughter" "What, really?" "Yes, so that other one isn't mine-" "She swore to me she was your daughter!" "She's obviously lying! She's not my daughter!" "Yeah, the thing about that is, I did the DNA test..." "Oh my god." "I'm sorry you had to find out this way..." "No, this is amazing! I have two daughters!" "I mean, you will once you give MY daughters back."

[@ohmydinosare]

I thought I'd seen the original but it must have been an edited version, because this went on so much longer and was so much funnier as a result, what a great scene. One thing I like a lot is how all the little noises people make are animated, that sniff is animated in there, it's great.

[@tortillachips3911]

Probably saw the shorts version? Maybe? I also saw a shorter, edited version

[@ohmydinosare]

@@tortillachips3911 I think it was the cut-down one from shorts, yes.

[@Crimser3]

Understandable confusion, the exchange rate on Liam Neeson daughters is constantly fluctuating

[@syedrahim6199]

We know why... Inflation

[@Unownshipper]

During the actual bit, I was waiting for them to up the ante: "I have your daughter... AND your son!" But what they did still managed to be hilarious.

[@magiceagle8086]

Imagine the response was “I don’t have a son, my daughter is the only child in the family.”

1:30 When he reaches through the frames to take off the glasses, it kills me 😂

[@erinbates6660]

Okay but the self-depreciating roll of his eyes he does when Liam 1 says he's got a particular set of skills after admitting he doesn't drive is just sooooo well animated

Ok, I laughed so hard when I saw this episode, but this animation just elevated it. I mean you always do that, but the stuff going on in the background on this one. Cassie's role being expanded so much. Just wonderful.

[@exveemonking]

The Glasses at 1:18 is not only a nice touch, but also makes him look like Clark Kent(Which is weird because he doesn't look like Superman without the glasses).

[@starvalkyrie]

I love that it just kept getting deeper in the weeds until finally Liam just wanted to help Liam

[@emilylike-the-soup2502]

The little “reserved” sign on the chair killed me! 😂 These improv skits are already hilarious, but the little details you add make them ten times better!

Liam: "So in order to get the two daughters you have back, you want me to give you my third daughter in ADDITION to your own daughter?" Liam: "Yes, I'm glad that's perfectly clear now." Liam: "In exchange for my second daughter, would you accept someone ELSE'S daughter, entirely?" Liam: "Hmmm. . . Perhaps." Liam: "Wait. . . Upon reflection, this whole situation is already too convoluted. I think I would rather just find you. . . and then kill you."

[@thomasswingler174]

This is my favourite skit

[@veggiet2009]

[@snowybookwyrm]

i like to believe that the liams neesons got married after this

[@YvonTripper]

My take on the subtext is that Liam Neeson is actually the father of all *four* daughters, and that Liam Neeson isn't the father of any of his three (but the paternity tests keep coming back saying "Liam Neeson", so he has been tricked into raising them). But now that Liam Neeson wants a bigger family, he has kidnapped two of Liam Neeson's daughters (who are actually his own daughters, but he doesn't want to raise them) as a ploy to get back Cassie, since she is the only one who is worth her salt: she can make tea, drive and not get kidnapped.
