[Fleabag laughing]
I hate myself.
We're gonna have sex.
Knew it.
Narrator: Usually, the main character
of the show "Fleabag" is able to speak to
or look directly at the camera
without other characters noticing.
That is, until this moment.
Fleabag: Won't last a week.
Priest: What was that?
Narrator: Suddenly, this reliable aspect
of the show is shattered.
[screams]
But it's not the only tenet that changes.
In fact, nearly all the rules of the show
fall apart in this 10-minute sequence,
revealing that these devices are even more powerful
when they're taken away.
Understanding the way that these rules break
proves why there can never be
a third season of "Fleabag."
The 10-minute sequence,
which occurs at the exact center of season two,
starts at the end of episode three
with this conversation
and continues into episode four.
Fleabag and the Priest go shopping,
go for a walk,
go to a silent Quaker meeting,
walk some more,
and then have a conversation in Fleabag's café.
There are three main devices
that make this sequence different
from the eight and a half episodes that lead up to it.
Let's start with the most obvious:
breaking the fourth wall.
The way Fleabag interacts
with the camera and the audience
is something that immediately sets the show apart
from everything else on TV.
