I know it's TV, but it made me audibly go, ugh.

So, listen, Clayton, I'm curious what you think of the portrayal of rattlesnakes inside of this episode.

Here's a question about that.

I'm just going to jump ahead to this.

You know, there's a great Esquire piece out, written by my pal Anthony Bresnikin, about Nate's death.

It went up as soon as the credits rolled.

So, Bres talked to Sam Levinson and all the people sort of about why this is how Nate went out on Euphoria.

Was it my favorite character death?

It was not my favorite character death at all.

But my question is, why would you show us the snake bite scene?

And that of any kind of tension when the coffin is open, we know that Nate's dead.

Because I don't, I'm not a Clayton.

I don't know a ton about snakes, but I know if you're in a confined space with a rattlesnake and it bites you during the day.

when your wife and high school girlfriend find you at night, you're dead.

You're already dead.

You're cooked.

So, like, is it interesting to, for us to already know that's a dead guy in the ground?

But not to, like...

Sunday Night Live quarterback this episode.

But wouldn't it have been interesting for us to watch all of that happen with the tension of like, Maddie's in danger.
