Five Characters in Search of an Exit

No, exactly.

Another one that I remember identifying with because, you know, it's that recurring nightmare that a lot of us have was Five Characters in Search of an Exit.

Oh, yeah, that's a good one.

It's funny.

Yeah.

And so I said to my editor, like, I need to put like a quick blurb.

And one of those was five characters in search of an exit.

And I guess I realized it's because there's no real autobiographical element to it.

What episode are we gonna look at this week?

Well, we're gonna look at Five Characters in Search of an Exit.
