Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.

The guys are going back to one of George's oldest and most favorite movies to see if the Remedial Film Class is having any effect on his ability to see films for more than face value. And what better trip down memory lane than David Fincher's gritty grimy slimy serial killer classic: Sev-Seven-en?
12 Monkeys-Era Brad Pitt, Jason Goes to Hell-era New Line Cinema. David Fincher's first "not a music video or Alien sequel" movie. Se7en is great despite the odds!
Will George be able to center himself after the SHOCKING pop music revelations of the opening 6 minutes of this episode? Which of the Seven Deadly Sin(s) is Travis breaking with his dedication to the make-up effects of this movie? Will Dan and his strict insistence on "watching the movie as it was made" and "not making up additional plot that is not at all in the movie" drive Travis to change his mind after 27 years? Tune in to find out, and stick around to the end!
