But there's also, it's real. It's very meaningful. That's so nice of you to say. And actually, the original script was set in Mongolia. I was like 30 pages into the script of these two guys going to Mongolia to visit an old friend. You're the new Hope and Crosby. That's that. You're going to do travel, you know. Look it up, kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a really good reference.

Next week, we're going to the Orient, you know. But... It was basically like, uh, it was, um, yeah, that it was. And so like, I had this great dynamic and then the movie, this Mongolia script was not going well. And this is kind of funny, but like the script was not going well. I was 30 pages into the script and an ad popped up on the internet for Auschwitz tours.

And then in parentheses with lunch. Jesus. Yeah. That's what it said. Auschwitz parentheses with lunch. Auschwitz tours. Auschwitz tours. Yeah. With lunch. Yeah. With lunch. With, I know I'm getting it. I know. Should I say it again? I can come closer. Yeah. So basically, and I was like, first of all, I knew immediately what the ad was for.

I mean, but the implication of what the ad was for, which was just, you know, you want to do tours. The ad's a little tone deaf. Let's say you can mention with lunch, maybe elsewhere. Yeah. Maybe put an asterisk there and address the asterisk after you click the banner.

Now you're going to go to Auschwitz, you know, and you're doing your responsible tourism, which is a good thing to do anyway. But.

As soon as I saw that, I took the characters out of Mongolia and I set them on this Polish trip. But that was really the feeling. It's like you could drop these characters in anywhere, in any scene, and it will still be amusing. And so, like what you said, they're going to all of these places fraught with the history of trauma.
