Chapter 1: What is the premise of The Edge movie breakdown?

5.74 - 14.804 Jenna Fischer

I'm Jenna Fisher. And I'm Angela Kinsey. We were on The Office together. And we're best friends. And now we're doing the ultimate Office Lovers podcast just for you.

15.185 - 36.112 Angela Kinsey

Each week, we will dive deeper into the world of The Office with exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes details, and lots of BFF stories. We're The Office Lady 6.0. Hello. Hey there. I'm smiling again. I know. It's the second part of The Edge and you couldn't be more tickled.

36.432 - 55.654 Jenna Fischer

Yes, everyone. Welcome back. You know, once we got into it, we realized we had a lot to say about this movie. Yeah, we needed to make it a two-parter. Because it's so good. I think, Angela, wouldn't you agree? It's just because it's so good, there's so much to say. There is a lot to say. Wait, but it's because it's so good.

55.674 - 61.238 Angela Kinsey

It's good, lady. It's good. It's so stressful for me, but I'm here for you.

61.538 - 81.107 Jenna Fischer

You know, maybe if that reviewer guy, James, listens to our breakdown, he'll gain a new appreciation for the movie. Wow. You are still really sour about James. I might write him a letter. He might get a letter from me. He's going to be so confused because he wrote his review. In 1997. Yeah. You know what? It's never too late. It's never too late.

81.647 - 87.608 Jenna Fischer

But first, I said last week that I would tell you what to do in a bear attack.

87.869 - 90.189 Angela Kinsey

Oh, I have been waiting for this. I'm grabbing my cup of tea.

90.889 - 116.312 Jenna Fischer

Well, let's get to it. First of all, brown bears, like the one in the movie, are more aggressive than black bears. However, the chances of being attacked by a bear are exceedingly rare, but it does happen. And according to all the experts, staying alive during a bear attack requires a presence of mind that is difficult for humans to muster under pressure.

117.287 - 124.414 Angela Kinsey

You think if a 1,700-pound thing swats you and you go flying that you're going to be like, I'm going to think right now.

Chapter 2: How can you survive a bear attack?

1011.968 - 1014.849 Angela Kinsey

Seriously, Bob, we don't need your snark right now.

0

1014.989 - 1031.455 Jenna Fischer

No, we do not. But lady, Charles doesn't care about Bob's snarky attitude. And what comes next is my next piece of Charles wisdom. And it is maybe my favorite Charles speech in the whole movie. I have a clip. Here it is.

0

1032.739 - 1039.482 Charles

We'll have to distract him and trap him, but it can be done. Do you believe it, Bob? Do you believe it?

0

1040.723 - 1057.632 Bob

I don't know, Charles. I don't think it'll work, Charles. It will work. No. It will work. What one man can do, another can do. You can't kill the bear, Charles. He's ahead of us all the time. It's like he's reading our minds. He's stalking us, for God's sakes.

1061.173 - 1087.331 Charles

You want to die out here. Well, then die. I tell you what, I'm not going to die. Oh, sorry. I'm not going to die. No, I'm going to kill the bear. Say it, I'm going to kill the bear. Say it, I'm going to kill the bear. Say it. Say, I'm going to kill the bear.

1088.552 - 1106.766 Bob

Say it! I'm going to kill the bear. Say it again. I'm going to kill the bear. And again. I'm going to kill the bear. Good. What one man can do, another can do. What one man can do, another can do. Say it again. What one man can do, another can do. And again. What one man can do, another can do. Yeah.

1108.107 - 1110.908 Charles

Today, I'm going to kill the motherfucker.

1112.609 - 1135.519 Jenna Fischer

That's right, folks. That's right. Wisdom moment number three, what one man can do, another can do. We got a letter from Alexis B. in Winnipeg who said, Hi, office ladies. The reason I wrote today is that I want to send a special thank you to you, Jenna. I have never seen the edge, and I'm so sorry. I likely never will. It sounds too scary, but...

1136.4 - 1151.69 Jenna Fischer

Jenna's quoting of the film has been playing in my head this last while, helping me to get through some more challenging times, reminding myself that what one man can do, another can do, has brought light at the end of the tunnel, even if I don't know what the whole story is with the bear.
