Through puppets, bullies, and unnecessary horse death we discover that not only is the main character reading a story, but the story is reading him. Join Liz and Greg as they break down this tale and discover it may be just one big metaphor for grief, and how the following sequels are essentially unwatchable.

Claire's, Abercrombie, the food court.....The mall was a place where you could get a pretzel, a pair of shoes and a pet but it wasn't just a place where you shopped.
