Emma: You’re listening to the Stunning Mass Podcast, your cozy consolation hear. This week we’re dissecting a favourite Consolation watch film for decor and residential inspiration. That is an ongoing collection for us, and this week’s choice is Father of the Bride, 1991, and Nancy Myers Basic. It’s a must to say what 12 months as a result of it’s a remake, which I don’t suppose I spotted after I first watched it as a result of I’ve really by no means seen the unique. So that might be a enjoyable one to do too. Which wouldn’t be a re-watch for me, it will be a primary watch.

Elsie: It’s produced from a film from 1950. After which additionally it was remade like final 12 months there was a Robert DeNiro father of the bride that you just watched. I didn’t see it however I bear in mind you informed me about it.

Emma: Sure, I watched it with my husband and he liked it much more than I did, I feel, and we each liked it. It’s so cute. 

Elsie: Nicely, I can’t wait to get to Father of the bride. I feel we’ll most likely do a separate episode sometime sooner or later for half two, which is the like they’re having infants. They’re each so good, I can’t choose which one I like extra, I like them each equal. 

Emma: Yeah, I most likely like them each equally, however they’re completely different. I like them for various causes. I really feel like Diane Keaton will get extra time in the second and I actually like that. She’s nice on this one too, however I don’t know. Anyway, if you happen to’ve by no means seen this one, we’ll let you know just a little bit concerning the plot. You may as well Google it, however basically it facilities round George Banks, performed by Steve Martin, who’s a father. His daughter type of shortly and unexpectedly will get engaged and he’s having a tough time letting her develop up, and that’s kind of what’s taking place in his life. So he’s the daddy of the bride they usually resolve to have the marriage at their home, of their yard. And he’s coping with his daughter rising up, accepting this younger man who’s gonna be a son-in-law paying for the marriage and type of all of the like humorous little, you realize, properly I’m the daddy of the bride, I gotta pay for, you realize, all these type of, I feel just a little bit quaint, however I additionally perceive it. 

Elsie: He’s bought this big quantity of complaining concerning the worth of the marriage and cash, which may be very cute. And yeah, similar to Steve Martin having his like freak-out scenes, there’s a really iconic scene the place he begins ripping up the hotdog bun bundle as a result of he solely needs the identical variety of hotdogs and hotdog buns. And I imply, I simply should say upfront, this film brings out my Steve Martin crush like no different. It’s actually intense for some motive on this film. I feel it’s one in all his greatest healthful film performances. I’ve all the time liked Steve Martin. We at the moment watch Solely Murders and I like him a lot, it doesn’t matter what, and Martin Brief as properly. However this film, there’s one thing about it, it’s prefer it was written for, you understand how typically they write a film only for the actor. I didn’t see that within the trivia, however I really feel like they most likely didn’t actually think about numerous different actors apart from Steve Martin. He’s excellent. 

Emma: Yeah. I don’t know however he’s excellent at this. 

Elsie: So do you’ve any reminiscences from the primary time you watched? I don’t, I don’t bear in mind the primary time I watched it. 

Emma: I don’t, I bear in mind rewatching it most likely like 5 or 6 years in the past and my ideas then, however I don’t suppose that was the primary time I noticed it, I doubt it, however it may have been. However one factor I bear in mind considering was like, oh wow, narration as a result of it actually opens with numerous. It actually nearly appears like a guide as a result of Steve Martin’s character, George may be very like narrating. You already know, we dwell on this home we blah, blah. He’s simply very very similar to providing you with a set of the scene, which doesn’t occur lots in motion pictures. I don’t really feel, it’s not tremendous, tremendous widespread. 

Elsie: I used to be already crying on his first opening scene when he’s like, I by no means wanna transfer, I like that we went tenting in our yard. All these little issues that he was saying, oh my god. 

Emma: Yeah, he’s reminiscing about all his reminiscences together with his youngsters, which he additionally has a son who’s not totally grown but, so there’s nonetheless like that within the film too. However yeah, he’s simply coming to phrases with growing old and his youngsters growing old and life-changing, which is difficult. However it’s actually candy. So for me, we’re gonna speak about decor and all that, however I additionally really feel like that is the film, not even simply the Nancy Meyers one, however of all the films, that simply feels to me prefer it may have been made in my city. I don’t essentially suppose it’s made within the Midwest or I don’t suppose individuals can be like, oh, this feels very midwest.

Elsie: It’s alleged to be a small city in California. 

Emma: Yeah as a result of the opposite home that’s like, you realize, the son-in-law, their dad and mom really feel much more California. And he drives round, I feel you see palm timber however there’s simply one thing about this home and I simply guess possibly the household sensibilities and issues, which is one thing that’s everywhere in the nation, however it simply felt to me very like, oh, this may very well be the place I’m from, which I don’t really feel that lots in motion pictures to be trustworthy, particularly in motion pictures from sure eras, because it appears like numerous California, New York, it doesn’t all the time really feel very center of the nation. I by no means really feel like this might have been in Missouri, so it simply has a really traditional, may very well be anyplace very relatable, despite the fact that the home is kind of huge and beautiful, however it simply appears like not a very unrelatable factor. 

Elsie: Yeah, it’s undoubtedly one in all my favourite film homes of all time. If I have been residing on an infinite price range in LA, that is the film home that I’d attempt every little thing to get, it’s so superb. It’s such a fantastic home, however I feel that our new home, one of many issues I preferred about it’s that I used to be like, it has just a little tiny little bit of father of the bride. I feel it appears just a little bit extra like a special film home. It has just a little tiny bit, and I’ll add extra over time, particularly the picket fence, I feel I can add that this 12 months. It’s actually a traditional, lovely house. I’ll hyperlink in our present notes, there’s this weblog that I like to take a look at referred to as Hooked on Homes, they usually have an entire submit concerning the father of the bride home they usually simply do film homes they usually type of simply clarify what’s actual areas, what’s a sound stage. It’s simply type of attention-grabbing for nerds like us. So, yeah, I’ll put that in there and you may take a look at footage if you happen to haven’t seen it shortly or it’s worthwhile to refresh your self. It’s a fantastic, iconic white clapboard home. So let’s speak concerning the decor. Oh my God, there are such a lot of good elements of it and I’ll say that they do present the inside variety much more within the second film. While you take a look at the images, simply take a look at each of ’em as a result of it’s nice each methods. However my favourite factor about this film is that they present a scene the place the home is roofed in snow, and it’s such as you actually haven’t seen a home till you’ve seen it lined in snow, proper? So the outside of the house, one in all my favourite issues about it, has shutters. It’s so cute and it has numerous vines rising on the entrance of the home, and numerous flowers rising, which I feel is so traditional and exquisite. Anytime I’ve ever talked to a landscaping particular person, they hate it they usually advocate in opposition to it and I assume it doubtlessly has its points. However positive this home, appears so good on there that it simply makes me wanna like develop vines on my home. 

Emma: Yeah, I imply, they’re all through the film prepping to have the marriage exterior, or at the least a part of the marriage is exterior, so that they’re wanting it to look actually manicured and all that. However I additionally suppose the outside, they do such a fantastic job of doing the identical factor with the exteriors, they do the inside, which is, it simply appears like very lived in. It doesn’t really feel like they simply purchased this home, or this film crew simply pulled as much as this new home and it doesn’t actually have a lot character. I don’t even know if it was another person’s home, I don’t know. We’re most likely gonna speak about that within the trivia, however I simply really feel prefer it appears like individuals have been residing right here for 10, 20, 30 years, it appears like that. It appears like they planted these roses years and years in the past and now they’ve the entire bush. It feels very cozy. I personally am not a lot of a landscaping exterior vegetation particular person as a result of we don’t even mow our personal yard. We rent somebody to try this. I simply do not need a inexperienced thumb, however I do love strolling by individuals’s homes who do. So I so admire it and I aspire, however man it’s not my period for it. Perhaps it by no means shall be, I don’t know, we’ll see what occurs in life and maintain my thoughts open to it. However I’d like to stroll by this home as a result of I feel it will odor superb. I simply suppose it will look lovely and yeah, they present us a scene the place it’s snowy, so that you type of get to see the completely different seasons and that’s enjoyable. 

Elsie: Subsequent time we go to LA we must always attempt to take an image there and simply be that loser for one minute as a result of it’s my favourite home. I do know it’s annoying that individuals try this, however one time in your very favourite one possibly. 

Emma: Hey, I by no means promised to not be annoying.

Elsie: That’s true. It’s in Pasadena and in response to Hooked on Homes, they use two homes to movie. I feel that the yard is a special home after which the entrance yard is that this home. So, the basketball is definitely from the opposite home, however I really feel like that’s an enormous a part of the nostalgia of this home is the scenes the place they’re enjoying basketball collectively and the film has numerous little flashbacks the place it reveals his daughter Annie as just a little lady, after which he realizes she’s a lady and it’s going forwards and backwards and it’s tugging at your heartstrings. Not too long ago our daughter requested if we may get a basketball aim at our new home, and I similar to about misplaced it and I used to be like, I’m gonna make it look similar to the daddy of the bride. I type of simply wanna make Jeremy into Steve Martin from Father of the Bride, is that dangerous? 

Emma: No, you must do it. For those who may do it, do it. 

Elsie: It’s an aspiration. It’s so romantic. I like the basketball scenes. It’s one in all my favourite stills. It counts as its personal room, I feel as a result of it’s so particular. 

Emma: It additionally has the additional advantage of all of the stuff you simply stated, but additionally it reveals off the footwear as a result of he owns a shoe enterprise referred to as Sidekicks. So that you’re seeing the tennis footwear as they’re enjoying basketball. However yeah, we additionally had a basketball aim in our driveway rising up. I bear in mind enjoying with our dad, we might play horse lots. The place you’re like making an attempt to make the hampers and spell out horse, issues like that. You have been extra into basketball than I used to be, however I’ve reminiscences of that. So I feel that’s a part of it too, is I’m like, yeah, that’s a factor. All households have the basketball aim within the driveway. That’s not essentially true however on this film, you get to see it and it type of hits house. 

Elsie: I find it irresistible. One other favourite a part of this house is the kitchen. It’s talked about usually. It’s kind of similar to the idyllic American kitchen, once you analyze it once you’re actually trying, it’s very cluttered. It’s not that nice, however it’s the sensation that it provides you once they’re having scenes in there may be actually, actually good. So yeah, I actually wanna perceive what it’s that makes that excellent kitchen feeling.

Emma: Yeah, I agree. While you actually take a look at it, it’s a huge kitchen however you possibly can type of inform from the skin of the home, it’s not gonna be a small kitchen. In order that’s not essentially shocking. It doesn’t really feel like there are any super-expensive finishes. It’s not like they’ve these loopy marbled counter tops or something. It feels type of relatable, though it’s a very massive kitchen. 

Elsie: Kitchens within the Nineteen Nineties have been actually completely different than now. There have been completely different countertop traits, I feel there are butcher counters. They usually actually didn’t have a stable floor and marble. 

Emma: Yeah. It was extra like tiled counter tops. That was extra in.

Elsie: Yeah, it was like tiled or butcher or regardless of the different type of fake-looking marble is named.

Emma: Laminate. 

Elsie: Yeah, laminate. For those who actually take a look at nineties motion pictures, you actually don’t see granite or quartz or marble except they’re exhibiting that it’s like an vintage kitchen.

Emma: And even just like the home equipment on this home, the oven and range high appears very nice, I don’t know the model. It type of regarded like a KitchenAid to me, however I don’t actually know. However then the fridge is like this black facet by facet. It doesn’t actually appear to be something, all that particular. It doesn’t look crappy or something, however I simply imply all of it appears relatable, good center class, not like loopy fancy, not like, oh, this can be a restaurant kitchen and cooks dwell right here. It doesn’t actually really feel that means, however on the identical time, it does really feel like an actual household there who cooks as a result of it’s a little cluttered. In a great way, I feel in a homey means, there’s like pans hanging above the island they usually appear to be they’ve been used. They don’t appear to be a model new set that some set particular person hung up proper earlier than they began taking pictures. Simply doesn’t all look tremendous matchy, matchy. So it feels actual, despite the fact that it’s not, it’s a film.

Elsie: Yeah. It’s an excellent feeling kitchen. One other factor that’s type of all the time in a Nancy Meyers film is an outside eating scene, they usually have a fantastic outside eating scene with candles and it simply each time see them, I’m like, why don’t we eat outdoor with candles? We simply don’t try this and I wanna try this. It’s like an aspiration that’s so attainable. It’s easy, however I simply don’t try this. So yeah, it’s one thing that I actually need to incorporate. 

Emma: Yeah, I guess your women would actually wanna try this too. They love consuming exterior, candles make it much more particular. 

Elsie: Sure. Okay. So about the lounge. Not too long ago I requested my husband, Jeremy, what do you concentrate on the sort of couch? And I confirmed him a white slipcover couch, like a Nancy Meyers. It’s type of in all her motion pictures. There’s type of by no means another type of couch apart from these white slipcover sofas. It’s very traditional. I don’t see as lots of my pals utilizing them although. It’s just a little little bit of an old-person factor, proper? I requested him, you realize as a result of they’ve them round and it’s attention-grabbing. It’s undoubtedly an attention-grabbing factor for somebody like me who switched sofas so many instances, this appears extra washable, one thing completely different, appears extra long-lasting. Looks like it’s not making an attempt to be the assertion of your room as a result of I’ve a factor for coloured sofas, which doesn’t all the time work out as essentially the most long-lasting buy choice. So anyway, I confirmed him the image and he was just like the strongest response. Completely not, he was like, no means and he by no means does that. So yeah, I used to be curious what you concentrate on them as a result of I feel I’m 50 50 really. I wasn’t making an attempt to speak him into it, I most likely may have. I used to be simply gauging the temperature and it was chilly as ice. Yeah. I’m curious, what do you concentrate on the white slipcover couch factor?

Emma: I’d like to know extra from somebody who has one or simply evaluations, I assume as a result of my impression is that they might be simpler to wash as properly. So if that’s really true, then I’m like, Ooh, that’s fairly attention-grabbing as a result of we’re a family that has youngsters and canines and I let Oscar eat snacks on the sofa typically and you realize, we get crumbs, all that. So yeah, I need issues which can be fairly washable. I additionally don’t have a robust sense of what these prices are versus among the different couches that we are inclined to gravitate in the direction of. However the primary factor that places me not ice chilly, however extra within the center or possibly just a little sizzling, is I like the concept that the sofa isn’t essentially the assertion within the room as a result of I simply are inclined to wanna have artwork or colourful throw pillows, or actually, I’m a type of individuals now the place I like wanna put out my Halloween throw pillows after which my Christmas throw pillows, my all 12 months spherical throw pillow. So I type of like a sofa that’s gonna exhibit my seasonal decor and like the opposite issues within the room, I type of preferred that concept. However after I’m purchasing, I haven’t shopped for a sofa in fairly a while, however I do type of transfer in the direction of the coloured ones or extra of an announcement piece as a result of they simply actually stand out. They only look extra attention-grabbing than a boring sofa. I assume not, these are boring, however you realize, much less of an announcement.

Elsie: Yeah. Nicely, that’s attention-grabbing. Within the nineties decor books, you understand how Elise has the nineties decor books factor she does on Instagram? They all the time have them, so possibly it is rather like a really nineties factor, however I do know they’re at Pottery Barn and locations like that, so I don’t know. I’m taken with our listeners, we might love to listen to what you concentrate on these sofas as a result of I don’t know, I feel it’s possibly considerably polarizing. And when you have them, please ship us a message and inform us what you suppose, if it’s higher, if it’s exhausting to maintain clear something, we don’t know. We’re clueless. However yeah, I’m interested by our new house, you realize, it’s like just a little extra conventional and I’ve not picked out any kinda couch but, and I must, and it’s like, what do I do? I don’t know. Anyway. Okay, so my favourite second from the entire film, is that if I have been going to make a wall artwork of 1 nonetheless within the bathtub with the swans in it. 

Emma: I knew you have been gonna say that, yeah. 

Elsie: Oh my god. Yeah, I need to be an artwork painter. It’s simply so cute, it’s iconic.

Emma: Yeah. It’s the second we have been like, oh man. 

Elsie: I find it irresistible. Okay, so different cozy inspirations from the film, could be style, meals, drink, or something. I actually suppose Diane Keaton is sort of a model icon. I need to be every little thing about her from all ages she’s ever been in her day. 

Emma: At all times and Eternally. Yeah, each film she’s ever in.

Elsie: She’s the final word lady. 

Emma: Yeah, she actually is. She really is and she or he appears lovable on this film. Not shocking.

Elsie: One among my favourite issues is that the opening credit of the film, the producer and all that is rather like champagne bubbles for like 5 straight minutes and I don’t know, I assume I didn’t discover it previously, however this time I used to be like, that’s really so cute, like lovable.

Emma: It’s, yeah. And it actually units the scene for this film’s a few wedding ceremony and celebration and romance, you realize? Yeah. 

Elsie: Yeah. It’s cute. The opposite factor is the marriage tent so ever since now we have been beginning to put together to maneuver to our new house, which does have an acre and a half. I dunno if I’ve stated that earlier than, it’s a reasonably large yard. I don’t know if I’d wanna say this out loud, however I’ll. Cuz why not? I’m obsessed that I need one in all my youngsters to get married in our yard and I feel it’s from this film. I’m obsessive about it although and it’s like, that’s not an inexpensive obsession to have as a result of it’s probably not your alternative and also you shouldn’t be into 

Emma: Yeah. Forcing one thing like that. Perhaps they are going to, however yeah. 

Elsie: And it may very well be one thing else too.

Emma: What about this although? What if we lease a type of tents for some type of celebration? Or, I imply, I’m gonna flip 40 in a pair extra years. We may very well be Emma’s birthday, a fortieth celebration, otherwise you and Jeremy have an enormous anniversary social gathering if you happen to needed to or one thing the place, you realize?

Elsie: I’ll make this sort of fortieth celebration the scale of a marriage, that’s superb. 

Emma: Okay, nice. Nice. There’s nothing I like greater than numerous consideration on my birthdays. 

Elsie: Yep. I’ll offer you a 10-minute-long awkward toast similar to I did at your wedding ceremony. I’ll do all of it. 

Emma: Oh my God. All I imply is if you need a type of tents in your yard, I guess we are able to provide you with a motive.

Elsie: Yeah, no, that sounds good. I agree. Just like the scenes with the greenery across the doorways and it’s simply so cute.

Emma: Yeah, we gotta do it within the spring or summer time. It could actually’t be my birthday now that I’m fascinated by it. That’s in January. That’s not gonna work. We gotta do one thing within the spring or summer time, possibly for our mother. Anyway, we are able to discover a motive to place that tent in your yard. Don’t fear about it. 

Elsie: Yeah, that sounds actually good. 

Emma: We may get some swans too. 

Elsie: May we actually? 

Emma: I’m positive we may, please. I don’t know what it prices, however yeah, I’m positive we may. 

Elsie: It sounds nice. Right here’s my bank card, signal me up. Okay. 

Emma: I like his little automobile, his like sports activities automobile that he drives round. I’m probably not a automobile particular person.

Elsie: What sort of automobile is that? 

Emma: I don’t know, yeah, we’d should look it up. It’s so cute. I used to be gonna say, I’m probably not a lot of a automobile particular person. I simply drive a Subaru and I’ve for years and I find it irresistible. Like, I don’t care. I’d by no means get myself a elaborate little automobile. It’s not an indulgence that I personally need, however I do like how a lot he appears to love it and he’s driving round. It’s like his particular little factor, clearly. And I type of similar to that vibe. I get it. After which additionally, I really feel like this film ought to get credited for just like the dad footwear as a result of he’ll put on this sort of particular tennis footwear due to his shoe firm. However I really feel like that’s the dad shoe look and I really feel like this film may be just like the origin story or one thing. 

Elsie: That’s true. How come that individuals say that Tom Hanks is America’s dad as an alternative of Steve Martin?

Emma: I don’t know. Most likely Steve Martin’s pissed about it. No, I don’t know. 

Elsie: I really feel like he type of earned it. 

Emma: You might have multiple dad. They may each be the dad. 

Elsie: That’s true. Why not be like Mama Mia? That’s superb. Okay, so I had down, did this film age properly, or did it not age properly? I feel it aged very properly on the spectrum of Nineteen Nineties motion pictures, which is what we’ve largely been rewatching just lately. I feel it’s up there on the very high. I feel it’s very watchable. Even Martin Brief’s efficiency, I don’t know if they might put that in a film now. However I feel it’s so dangerous that it’s good and it type of works. I don’t know. What do you suppose? 

Emma: Yeah, I feel that’s the one factor that I’m like, I don’t find out about that accent alternative or what sort of character he’s doing precisely, however he’s doing his factor, I’m unsure about that with the growing old, I don’t know. After which I additionally suppose it’s simply not as conventional now that, the daddy of the bride pays for the marriage. However I additionally suppose this film doesn’t deal with it, there will not be actually numerous sexist feedback about it. It’s extra, I take into consideration a person who’s growing old and coping with that and seeing his daughter develop up and stuff. So I really suppose all of that age like rather well and good. However I do suppose in the event that they remade it, I imply they do have a brand new one now, but when they’re making it proper now this 12 months, a few of that might dialogue and issues would most likely change. However I don’t really feel like something in it makes me really feel like, Ooh, that is so dated and that’s not good. I feel it type of works and ladders as much as the theme of the film. 

Elsie: I fully agree. Okay. Do you wanna hear some trivia? 

Emma: Sure. At all times. 

Elsie: Okay. This one is tougher to seek out numerous trivia on, however I’ll present you what I’ve. So the primary piece of trivia is that Eugene Levy seems in each movies, Father of the Bride and Father of the Bride, half two from 1995, however as completely different characters in every. 

Emma: Yeah, that’s true. That’s humorous. 

Elsie: Yeah, I didn’t discover that. 

Emma: I didn’t discover that and now you’re saying, I’m like, yeah, that’s true. That’s actually humorous. They only actually preferred working with him. They’re like, we must carry him again. However you realize, we had this completely different character we’d like, so. Yeah. 

Elsie: Yeah, I feel if I have been making a film, I’d most likely choose Eugene Levy each single time, it doesn’t matter what. In order that is smart. Okay, so the daughter on this film is known as Annie and within the Mother or father Entice, the Nancy Meyers model, the daughters are named Annie and Halle, that are the names of Nancy Meyers’s daughters. Cute, huh? Sure, so I’ve already stated this earlier within the episode, however that is my primary most coveted film home. Really, possibly I’d give it a tie for, I don’t know. I don’t know, however I’ll say, that is my primary most coveted film home in California. That is the one, it’s similar to, it’s so iconic. It’s so superb, and I simply love that it’s an actual home that somebody will get to dwell in, whoever they’re, good for them. 

Emma: I agree. Yeah, and identical, it may be tied with, It’s Sophisticated, Meryl Streep’s home. However I don’t know. I do really feel like this one feels extra, like may very well be within the Midwest to me, not simply Southern California, despite the fact that it’s in California. So I don’t know, however yeah, I like this home a lot. I like this kitchen a lot. All the things about it. 

Elsie: Yeah. It’s a really traditional century house. Okay, so that is fairly widespread, however the entire interiors from the film are a sound stage, so none of them are actually in that home. All of it’s simply began from scratch, and I feel they did a very good job. They’re like stained glass and woodwork and it feels very, very genuine for a historic house, particularly styled within the nineties. And yeah, simply the correct quantity of litter. Which I feel makes it really feel much less like a film set and extra like somebody’s actual house.

Emma: Agree. Yeah. They did an incredible job.

Elsie: Okay. So that is only a micro element that I similar to love, however within the first film there may be really, if you happen to look intently within the kitchen behind her sink and stuff, there may be really cow print tile on the partitions with little cows on it. After which when it comes again for the second film, it’s switched to impartial tile. Isn’t that cute?

Emma: I didn’t discover the cow print tile. Yeah. Now I wanna re-watch it once more simply to see the tile. Yeah, I didn’t discover that. That’s attention-grabbing. 

Elsie: After we have been in highschool, one in all our shut pals, his mother had a cow-themed kitchen that was a ten, prefer it was not just a little bit cow themed. It was a ten out of 10 cows-themed kitchens. 

Emma: I had one other good friend whose mother had a pig kitchen. All pigs. Yeah. Why did my kitchen have a theme? What’s flawed with me? Now that I’m fascinated by it? 

Elsie: Within the nineties, I feel individuals considered their kitchens just a little bit extra like a nursery the place you had a theme and I don’t suppose individuals do type of anymore. However yeah, I feel the cow factor is humorous as a result of it’s change into a pattern, once more, like a Gen Z pattern just lately, the previous few years. And it’s not for me, however it’s like I see that it’s there and I acknowledge that it’s trending. 

Emma: I prefer it for the nostalgia, I need to say. However there is no such thing as a means in hell if I had an entire pig kitchen, that Trey would come house and be like, that is completely superb, and I’m not gonna remark about this, there’s no probability.
