If I remember correctly, in the story of Don Juan there is another scene after he dies. Don Juan goes to Hell and meets Satan, who tells Don Juan he will play the role of a jester or a "Fool" in Hell. Don Juan claims he is not a fool, he is a great lover, and tries to refuse the role. Satan offers him a deal, if Don Juan can remember just one of the women he's banged he won't have to play the fool. They bring out all women, one after the other, and Don Juan keeps getting them wrong. Finally they are down to the last few, as Don Juan looks at her he notices she's crying. Don Juan asks Satan why she's crying and is told, "she really loved you." Don Juan then realizes that he was a fool.
Where is the part where a English detective appears on stage trying to defuse a boom boom that actually turns out to be concealed in the cake being brought to a peace negotiations across the road? Asking for a Holmes

Kool-aid mans in
Well damn
Ding dong the witch is dead
These are good bits, helpful but, what is with the oddly affected voice of the narrator? It just makes no sense.
no
worst African accent impersonation ever
Terrible synopsis. Woke Giovanni.
if only the voice wasn’t so purposefully cringy, plus the music is so bad
