Yes. now that you said that.... she is definitely saying "I have to be quiet"


This makes the most sense, a tagruato reference would have been nice but have we gotten anything useful from these videos or the myspace pages? Nope, just back story to help flesh out the characters a little for the movie and I'd bet thats all we get.


Jamies 1st video had bowel movement, then paraffun shows up w/ helps bowel movements, She did clue us to something, Just like bowel movement in 1st, Cornbread means something.

That's my opinion, but i watched that section about 8 times in a row... The first time that's what i heard and 5 out of 8 that's what i gathered from it.


ON the Other-Hand... I guess i could hear i got your text message earlier from tagaruato corp... The only problem i hear with that is I distinctly hear a T at the end of her sentence, and seeing as she is an actress, they tend to enunciate quite well. It could be she was acting drunk (or if you do it as a character thing, she was drunk). But hey, her saying the corporation's name would lead to a question with the answer six...


True it does sound alot like shes saying tagaruato corp. Only problem is the company is Tagruato not tagaruato.


In the Tagruato thread, http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21307&start=15 Duckie enlightens us with the Japanese pronunciation - TA GU RU A TO.


You can also hear the "official" pronunciation in the Tagruato phone message.

 		[SPEC] Cranberry Juice? Poisonous Monster?
Remember that cranberry juice is a natural diuretic, meaning that they help regulate urine production in the kidneys. Many women take it while on their period. (Could she be trying to get pregnant?)

However, in Video 1, Jamie asks for cranberry pills because of a "bladder infection". Yet, if one does the research they will see that cranberry juice, or diuretics in general, are used to treat "heart failure, liver cirrhosis, hypertension and certain kidney diseases".

Nothing says anything about bladder issues. At first, I took this to mean that Jamie is perhaps medically ignorant and doesn't realize this.

But then, if one looks further, you may see that diuretics do much more than treat.

Some diuretics, such as acetazolamide, help to make the urine more alkaline and are helpful in increasing excretion of substances such as aspirin in cases of overdose or poisoning. I don't know if this info could help at all, in less of course, the boys upstairs are trying to tell us that this monster will be poisonous. Shocked Now that would explain why, in the clip revealed by Ain't It Cool News, everyone freaks out when they find out the girl's been bitten.

And third, Diuretics are often abused by sufferers of eating disorders, especially bulimics, in attempts at weight loss. Hmmm... I don't know why this would apply, but if Jamie said "bladder infection" simply to sound convincing, she could be trying to hide the fact that she has an eating disorder. Again, I have no clue what this means plot-wise. This is all just speculation, as the message is labelled.

Please, your thoughts...

 		I'm leaning towards a cran & vodka, myself, maybe with a twist of slusho. It's pretty clear that she's drunk or on her way there and pre-gaming for a night out. Its too light-colored to be just cranberry juice, IMO, so its either diluted or is something else. Jamie's thinking "hey, I can get wasted and prevent a bladder infection at the same time! score!"

Also, 98% of all girls over a certain age know that you drink cranberry juice to prevent/cure bladder infections, and they sell the aforementioned cranberry pills at all drugstores under the guise of preventing/curing them. So if she is in fact consuming cranberry juice, I am sure that's why.

 		tagruato corp
i'm almost 100% sure that Jamie said wen whispering:"I got your text message earlier from Tagruato Corp"Since she isn't like Japanese or anything,she may have mildly misspronounced the word "Tagruato"
I think that Tagruato corp is the only big link with Jamie and Rob,since Rob most likely works there along with jamie's BF(Teddy)....so thats how they might've known and met eachother.

 		The only problem is

a) The phrase i got your message earlier from tagruato corp, when you think about it, doesnt make a whole lot of sense. Why would she say tagruato corp instead of work?

b) Secondly, im still convinced that Rob doesnt work for Taguato, at least not yet.

Oh and by the way, this may be a long shot. But could teddy be short for Johnathon?

 		Re: Transcript...
(Thank you for discovery Nenya)
I think she says, " I got yur text message earlier from Tipper Gore,"...

Tipper Gore = Al Gore...

The monster is global warming!!



Seriously...

Tagruato is too many syllables even for her drunk ass to slur into one.
I thought she was saying, " I got yur text message earlier (from?) tipico,"...
which tranlates to the equivalent of average in spanish...

* La paella es un plato típico de España.
* Paella is a typical dish in Spain.

Which probably isn't what she's saying, because it makes as much sense as Lascano getting a text from Tagruato. Rolling Eyes

Next...

 		Then again, it is possible shes saying nothing. And its simply meant to be a nonsensical noise.

Too light colored to be cranberry juice. Too "clear" to be a frozen slusho drink.

Looks like she's drinking cheap wine, probably white zinfandel ... and I thought she was a Jack girl Wink

Not frozen = not Slusho!

I'm thinkin vodka & cranberry or the wine...

On another note...
I'm 99% convinced that, in the part where she mumbles, Lascano says...

I also got yur text message - sorry -
*whispers*
I got yur text message earlier - I'm tryin' to be quiet.
