Tim tells a story about a predatory older kid from his childhood skateboarding days, then segues into a detailed discussion of the film LIE and its themes of pedophilia and Long Island suburbia.
- Tim discusses Paul Dano and Brian Cox in the movie 'LIE,' noting Cox's character is a pedophile who turns down a kid.
- The pedophile rejects the child over his anatomy, making him prove he has more than five inches—a moment Tim credits to Cox possibly ad-libbing as a smart actor.
- Tim explains the movie's tagline references lanes going east, west, and straight to hell, referencing the Long Island Expressway and deaths like Harry Chapin and Lee Iacocca.
- The film follows a kid whose corrupt builder father was played by the actor who appeared in a scene where someone threatens to kill Sinatra to void a house contract.
- Tim describes the plot: the kid ditches school and gets involved with a group robbing houses before being preyed on by a pedophile.
- Tim argues the movie could be set anywhere and questions why filmmakers don't make more stories about how fast food makes everyone fat instead.
