Closed Captioning on the GB2 doesn’t have it, but does anyone know what Peter is mumbling in the beginning of the World of the Psychic? All I could catch was “they washed their hair with their own urine” but I couldn’t understand the rest. Anyone know what he’s saying? :lol:

2

That’s funny! :lol: I never paid that close attention to it before. I’ll have to watch it and see if I can hear what he’s saying.

I thought he said: “…but my father encouraged it.”

same here, something along those lines…

Oh that part, he was talking about his hair. Then that when he said my father encouraged it.

haha I hear it now. Cool. To me it sounds kinda like “This GI I knew in Brooklyn knew Eskimos who washed their hair with their own urine…the father encouraged it” haha thats just an interpretation of what I’m hearing from my DVD late at night with my ear next to the TV…

probably only a few people are gonna know exactly what Bill Murray mumbled. One of those would be Bill Murray…awesome find. I never even listened that closely but I definetly hear the hair urine part now…only Bill Murray would come up with an off the wall comment like that.

EDIT: Actually looking up to see if there was any significance there is a thing..urine therapy. Do some more researching. This may be what Murray was talking about. There was something about it doesn’t freeze as fast as water and other stuff..

Another site.

I’d be interested to know if anyone heard this similar to me.

Thanks for all the responses :slight_smile:

Wow, never knew that anything like urine therapy existed. Might have to look into it some more

Did anyone bother to try and find a script to see if there was a written line for that scene?

If it was even written, Bill Murray is known for his improvision.

Just looked at the script online and its absent of course. For something that probably wasn’t meant to be really heard(return from commercial for Venkman’s show) it was likely they told him to just mumble some stuff. :lol:

It definately sounds like the urine thing.

BTW is it me or is his female guest trying not to laugh as the lights go on?
