I like the implication that either A. Steve brought the play Cats to earth with him inside of his head, and it proved to be not quite the world-defining hit it was on the clown planet or B. Cats, as a play, is an art object in the collective unconscious of the universe, such that ANY planetary society, after inventing writing and theatre, will eventually independently come up with Cats.

It's doing less hot for the fact that Clowns were pretty much invented in USA by appropriating English bastardizations of mainland European commedia dell'arte traditions, and jsut turned it into a hateful public mockery of drunks, on who the pale face and red nose is based on. The mockery then lived on in blackface because same culture so openly hates these other instances, that they want to make the PAINT a problem without addressing positive depictions of the same thing. And so they DON'T HAVE positive depictions like Aqualung by Jethro Tull. It's just blackface for an acceptable target, while blackface for genuine comedy is not even acknowledged as possible because Americans want to blame the depiction, and veer away from THEIR OWN hateful APPLICATION of it as the problem. For example japan happily uses archetypes in anime like Iyami from Osomatsu, but black people are openly encourgaed to become violent when even seeing same kind of imagery.

At the end of the day they NEED to be stopped and this was Cesare's BIGGEST case. He said his 1000 years were up, not that they were GOING to be up, which makes me think Cesare stayed on the forece knowing that if anyone could catch Steve it was him. Steve was his biggest case, he can finally hang up his badge knowing he finally put in everything he had for the force. Even if he feels sympathy or contempt for Steve, doesn't matter. He got the one Clown no one could catch off the streets. His jobs done, and that's the end of that.

4:38 Semi-fun fact! Assuming that Steve was roughly the average male clown weight of 100 kg at the time of his banishment (due to their denser and more comedic molecular structure) -- to cause the Chicxulub impact (estimated energy 300 ZJ), he would need to have been traveling at 182.7 times the speed of light! Or in Star Trek terms, warp factor 4.8. _Edit:_ We can therefore deduce that he was fired out of a Warp 5 cannon.

I went to go recalculate your results for the Siljan impact, which is the one I believe Worthi is attributing to Steve, with the presumption that the effect of the impact was artistic license so I wouldn't analogize to K-Pg. Unfortunately, it turns out that from what literature I could find, most Siljan impact structure research is focused on oil & gas, not the impact event itself, so trying to get an estimated kinetic energy for the impact to make a stupid little joke on KZitem would be like...... actual geophysics research.

I think he has actually held this title for mutplile years after getting it, since in the first flash-back with "back on Broadway yet again." he is actually seen singing. What i think happened is that in this performance, he had simply cracked under pressure from how long he had been doing this.

New clowns came in, new standards evolved, ever demanding more and more from him until eventually he just.... cracked. This wasn't some simple banishment, this was a high profile excising from clown society.

I..” then “NOT! ANYMORE!” So yeah he just seems to have cracked after millions of years of performance and then gotten banished.

The fish-creatures at 4:37 are Tiktaaliks, which lived during the late Denovian Period, over 100 million years before the earliest dinosaurs. They are believed to be an important link between fishes and four-legged (land) vertebrates. Coincidentally, the second of the 'Big Five' mass extinctions took place around that time. Specifically, it seems that Steve was likely the cause of the Hangenberg Extinction Event, which marked the end of the Denovian Period and the beginning of the Carboniferous Period.

@Levyafan
Жыл бұрын
My theory is, Steve was not chased by Cesare because he was a clown, but because he was perceived as an Underworld denizen. Cesare's other jobs included imps, which are small demons, and he was aiming for Andy Serkis, known best for his role of cave-dwelling Gollum - making me believe that his actual job is to send Underworld escapees back home. And the reason Steve was on the Underworld's radar was because he was slumbering under the ground for millions of years, having landed before humanity was even a twinkle in the Earth's eye - meaning nobody would ever know he is an extraterrestrial and likely perceiving him as some kinda primordial chtonic being. And the lyrics of Down do say "trickster gods rise from the deep", conforming that they see him as a god from the deep, not as an alien from above. Cesare's doubt, I think, is because he's wondering if Steve is actually a native underworlder; he never had to wonder before, but Steve himself being surprised at the "under the ground" bit did sow a seed of doubt. My prediction is that the next episode will end up with Steve being let out due to being out of the underground's jurisdiction. That, or other clowns come for him. Or maybe Cesare himself realises Steve does not belong here and busts him out.

"Cesare's doubt, I think, is because he's wondering if Steve is actually a native underworlder; he never had to wonder before, but Steve himself being surprised at the "under the ground" bit did sow a seed of doubt." When Steve is banished, he is shot from the circus looking planet where clown is more like elf than job. He later is an important leader in their society as his role of Dootz is critical to the show making the whole universe go. Where they hail from is not an underworld, but some weird magic place we can only begin to guess about. 9billion years ago, a race of clowns performed the stage play Cats...and even before then it seems the creator of all is a clown too. When Steve is sleeping "under the ground" that is literal. After he is banished from magic LSD clown universe, he is shown landing in the center of the Earth. He slumbers underground for billions of years in exile. After he awakens like some sort of goofy kaiju is when Cesare and "upper management" become interested in him. Cesare knows Steve is from clowntown, they were in clown cats together. I think his expression of disbelief is that Steve didn't remember the exile or realize how long he had been in the center of the planet. It might indicate that there is more going on with Steve, I agree with you there. But I believe it either means Steve was more active during his time in the center of the earth/awoke closer to the dawn of man than present day. More reveals via flashbacks and we learn Steve and hambergers were forever intertwined at some cosmic moment where he saved human history. Thus redeeming his failed performance as Dootz all along.. I think it is also likely we see Cesare learn how much unjust pain he causes Steve and others by blindly following orders from whatever their uppermanagment is. @@Levyafan

I waited 8 months and every second was worth it. Absolutely insane how cohesive yet crazy this lore is. In hindsight, there were so many hints at Steve's past that we brushed away as jokes. All those hints make sense now. It's interesting how in his flashback back in season 1 he successfully sang "The Moments of Happiness". Perhaps he repressed what really happened. Aside from Steve, I'd be remiss not to mention Cesare's story. His story was vaguely explained in the song "Friends In Low Places" but now we know that now that he's caught Steve his job as the watcher is done. This series is art.

If not their religion, then a highly regarded part of their society where absolute perfection is demanded by those performing it.

3:57 One thing I can't help but note is that the rest of the clowns are solemn about this. 'Munkustrap' himself, despite being the one who sentenced Steve, is the one who turns away with a single tear, unable to bear watching. Banishment of a clown is clearly a tragedy in their society - yet, it's a necessary tragedy, for the Cats Musical is too vital a ritual to be ruined.

@@bazzjedimaster You are very correct, though this makes me wonder: what if the Cats musical is so important that your role in it LITERALLY becomes your identity? Munkustrap and Old Deut do call each other by their role names, though I'm not sure if that's just something theaters do. Steve's mother did say that many clowns spend their whole lives training to play Old Deuteronomy, and Steve himself is in genuine fear about what would become of him now that he's failed at being the Old Deut; perhaps the banishment is less a punishment and more of just a natural consequence of a clown failing at their role and thus no longer having a 'role' in the society itself?

There's so many details to talk about, I'm especially obsessed with Cesare's pause and facial expression after he realizes Steve didn't know he was underground for so long, you can tell *so much* about his thoughts just from those few seconds alone. And just, the design of the clown planet is beautiful, and the unique writing system too?? And just, the sequence of Steve flying through space is amazing, this episode makes me feel so hard for him. I'm not even talking about a lot of the other things people have already mentioned, like with the insane Cats lore.... and what's with the secretary???
