You're the Worst · Season 1, Episode 2

Jimmy, Edgar and others in “Insouciance”

Jimmy

[watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off] This movie has one of the greatest villains of all time.

Edgar

Yeah. Principal Rooney is so mean.

Jimmy

Rooney? Rooney's not the villain.

Edgar

Oh, you mean the sister, that girl from...

Jimmy/Edgar

...Dirty Dancing/Wind.

Jimmy

Okay, first of all, Wind is what you retained from Jennifer Grey's career? And no, she's not the villain either.

Edgar

Then who is?

Jimmy

Cameron.

Edgar

Cameron? No. Cameron's his best friend, Cameron's his sidekick.

Jimmy

Edgar, I think I know a little something about Campbellian storytelling. Ferris is the hero, Jennifer Grey is the foil, Principal Rooney is the fool, Sloane is the sidekick, Cameron's the villain.

Edgar

Wait, how is Cameron the villain?

Jimmy

Ferris just wants to show Cameron a fun day for once in his pathetic little life, but Cameron acts like a whiny knob the whole time, subverting every attempt at fun with his passive-aggressive anxiety and relentless nay-saying, essentially ruining what might be Ferris's last day of freedom by being a miserable, agoraphobic, cockblocking enemy of fun!

Edgar

Cameron's sick, he doesn't even want to go out, but Ferris guilts him into it and...and makes him steal his father's luxury automobile.

Jimmy

Are we even watching the same movie?

Edgar

I think so.
