Days of our Lives: Gabi’s Handbag Thief Exposed – Shocking Culprit
Days of Our Lives delivers Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) absolutely furious that her designer handbags have been counterfeited. She immediately assumed that Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) and Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) are behind the design theft.
Which honestly makes zero sense at all to me. Gabi was planning to bail them out. So, why would they ever screw her over? We’re going to get into the epic blindside coming Gabi’s way when the thief is revealed.
Days of our Lives: Gabi Horrified at Knockoff Handbag
Now, let’s talk about these purloined purse designs. So, Gabi was stunned when she saw Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) carrying one of her Gabi Chic bags. And at a glance, Gabi thought it was legit and was excited. But when she got up close and looked at Gwen’s bag, she saw it was a cheap knockoff of one of Gabi’s brand new designs.
Gwen didn’t know it, but she bought a very expensive, very fake bag online. And now, of course, Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) is involved, and before she went missing, he and Gwen were talking about it. They had discussed buying all kinds of fake designer goods on sketchy shopping sprees in the past. That was before either of them had much money to spend.
And Gabi explained how much this hurts the designer when these original pieces are copied and tagged with a fake designer label. It’s really bad for business. I personally feel her pain. My videos get stolen constantly. My thumbnails get stolen, my website name, my YouTube channel name.
There’s a sketchy channel that’s basically copied my thumbnail colors and style trying to fool you guys into clicking on them. So, Gabi’s all fired up and she’s got Leo and Gwen on board to investigate and find the thief. Of course, Gwen’s not going to be much help because she’s been kidnapped. And Leo got the go-ahead from Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) to write an article about Gabi’s counterfeit issue and the whole world of fashion fakes.
DOOL: Tracking the Counterfeit Designer Ring
So, at first, Gabi assumed it was the Titan co-CEO Xander and Philip. And Gabi thinks because Titan handles her overseas shipments, they popped open a crate, stole bags, and used them to make knockoffs. That’s why Gabi reneged on her deal to bail out Titan with her inheritance. Now, I’ll say this. She should be thinking about the last time she jumped to a conclusion on Days of our Lives.
That was after Philip dumped her because he found out she set them up and was doing corporate espionage on Tony DiMera’s behalf. If you remember, Gabi accused Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews) of spilling the beans, and she was 100% wrong. And I think she’s 100% wrong about Xander and Philip.
Days of our Lives: Kate’s a Likely Suspect
But Gabi invoked the morality clause that was in her contract with Titan, and she backed out of the deal that she made with them. And of course, she knows Xander and Philip can’t afford to fight her in court, but I don’t think they did it. So, the question is, who really is copying Gabi’s designs? One person to consider is Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow).
She plotted with Xander and Philip to set up Johnny with that plagiarism suit. That was dirty. Kate despises that Gabi did Philip so wrong and broke his heart. And as we know, Kate can be ruthless because it all came out, you know, Philip and Kate know that Gabi was spying on Titan and the reason she did it to get this CEO job with their chief rival, DiMera Enterprises.
It would have worked if Tony hadn’t double crossed Gabi and hired Theo instead. And Mama Kate doesn’t let anybody mess with her sons. She would go to bat for payback on Philip’s behalf in a minute. She doesn’t want Gabi to get away with what she did. So, could be that Kate is behind these phony Gabi Chic handbags. But I doubt that.
Days of Our Lives: Suspects and the Dark Truth
So, assuming that it’s not Xander or Philip or Kate, maybe it’s Tony DiMera. He and his fashionista wife Anna DiMera could be behind this whole operation. Tony may be annoyed that Gabi turned down the job when he asked her to be CEO after Theo decided to step down. We know DiMeras love revenge games and they love to manipulate people.
So, Tony might be trying to mess with Gabi. I mean, he might have set it up to even look like Xander and Philip did it so that Gabi would turn her back on them and she might reconsider being CEO of DiMera, answering directly to Tony because he doesn’t want Johnny in the job. But I doubt it.
Days of our Lives: EJ to Blame?
Another DiMera though could be behind this. Why not EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel)? He could be messing with Gabi. He hates that she got her hands on part of Stefan’s inheritance. She proved to Theo that she was Stefan’s widow, not his ex-wife. And of course, Theo knows Gabi wanted to use the money to bail out Titan.
So, EJ might have found out that Gabi was going to ride to the rescue and help Philip because she feels guilty. And if you remember, EJ set up a holding company and he bought Titan’s loan and set these terrible new terms, a lot higher interest rate, more frequent payments.
So, I wouldn’t put it past EJ to have his henchwoman, Rita, set up a counterfeit ring to sell Gabi Chic bags to mess with her and of course to drive a wedge between Gabi and the guys at Titan. I think EJ is able to multitask revenge plans quite cleverly. But I feel like he’s got bigger fish to fry than Gabi, so I don’t think it’s him.
Theo the Culprit on DOOL?
Another DiMera to consider though is Theo Carver. He’s totally plausible. He’s really angry at Gabi for assuming he blabbed her dirty corporate spy secret to Philip. And let’s face it, Theo is certainly smart enough to set up a counterfeit ring and those knockoff websites. He’s a computer genius.
So, Theo could have hacked into Gabi Chic’s servers and stole the patented designs from there. However, I don’t think Theo would do this because he had a big crush on Gabi that could still be lingering. Plus, Theo is one of the few good DiMeras. So, that brings me to the person that I think it actually is – somebody truly shocking.
We’ll see, of course, when the official reveal is made, but I suspect it could be Javi Hernandez’s (Jacob Martinez) hot new boyfriend, Gus (Michael Ocampo), who’s doing this. At a glance, he seems like a really nice guy, and Javi’s crazy about him, and Gabi approves of him. She’s still annoyed, of course, that Leo broke Javi’s heart.
Gus Makes Perfect Sense on Days
But here’s why I suspect it’s Gus. All these years, and Gabi’s handbag designs never got stolen, no issues. All of a sudden, there’s knockoffs for sale not long after Gus moved to Salem. Plus, he lives with Javi at Casa Hernandez and Gabi works from home a lot. And remember, she was living with Philip at the Kiriakis mansion, but he kicked her out and she moved back home with Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) and others. And then all of a sudden, knockoff bags.
We know her laptop’s been lying around the house, maybe even some design sketches. And remember what Javi’s job was when he first came to Salem? He was Gabi’s assistant at Gabi Chic. So, that means Javi had access to all her files. And based on proximity, Gus has access to Javi’s laptop. And since he’s family, Gabi might not have shut off Javi’s credentials to Gabi Chic’s files. So question is, why would Gus do this? Greed or a crime of opportunity or both?
DOOL Needs Gus Out of the Way
Javi’s boyfriend might have a sick family member that needs money. So, he might have a personal motive. In the end, the main reason I think it’s Gus is because he’s got to go. Presumably, Leo’s going to end up back with Javi and they need Gus out of the way. But right now, he seems like a super nice guy, a really good guy. Maybe a little too good to be true, though.
It’s no coincidence that Leo’s working with Gabi to crack this counterfeit case because I expect Leo to get the goods that proves it is Gus. But from there, Gabi and Javi won’t want to believe it. They might even think Leo is deliberately setting up Gus because he’s jealous. We’ll see how it goes. But Gabi’s handbag design thief might be right under her nose and the last person she’d ever think would betray her – Javi’s new love interest.

Netflix’s new true crime documentary explores a case that will leave your head spinning. Here’s what happened to the three people at the center of it.
Doctor Who might be on indefinite hiatus right now, but if the timey-wimey history of the world’s longest-running sci-fi show has taught us anything, it’s that the Doctor always finds a way to regenerate. The flagship BBC franchise has survived for over 60 years because its primary characters can be seamlessly recast, a built-in narrative reset button used to reinvent the show without starting over. Since no iteration of the Doctor or a companion lasts long-term, exit stories are a mainstay of the series, delivering action-packed and emotionally charged episodes to mark the end of their journey.
As the first companion of the revival era, Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) completely redefined what it meant to travel alongside the Doctor, setting the bar as a fiercely loyal, utterly grounded, and tremendously brave co-lead. It’s only fitting that her departure led to the best two-part storyline in Doctor Who‘s 892-episode history, “Army of Ghosts” and “Doomsday,” unmatched in the scale of its universal existential stakes, and the finality in its devastating, intimate conclusion. An exit story is, by nature, epic; what makes this two-episode finale rise to greatness is that, much like the character of Rose herself, it’s shot through with heavy doses of humanity, humor, and heartbreak.
Rose Tyler Built the Foundation for a Modern ‘Doctor Who’ Companion
In the classic era of Doctor Who, companions were students to the Doctor’s teacher. As mostly normal people with extraordinary skills but minimal personal history, they served as a relatable lens for the audience by asking questions of their deeply eccentric partner, and driving the plot in ways the alien Doctor could not. The 2005 revival made down-to-earth, working-class Rose Tyler not just a companion but a co-lead to the initially brooding, traumatized Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston) and placed heavy emphasis on her everyday life and family dynamics to give her depth. She still asked questions, but also took on the role of emotional anchor to help him heal from the Time War, and their bond grew from mentor-mentee to a partnership on equal footing.
The first farewell of the revival came quickly, as the Ninth Doctor departed spectacularly after just one season. The charming, goofy Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) was externally the complete opposite of his predecessor, but deep down still grappled with grief and loneliness. Fueled by real-life explosive on-screen chemistry and each character’s deep mutual need, another classic Doctor Who rule was scrapped with the addition of unspoken romantic tension to their relationship, which made the season they spent together feel charged with emotional realism. Rose built the foundation for modern companions with the Ninth Doctor; with the Tenth Doctor she became arguably the best companion of all time, challenging him to become more human and giving him something to fight for.
“Army of Ghosts” Starts Rose Tyler’s Exit From ‘Doctor Who’
The first of Rose’s two farewell episodes, “Army of Ghosts,” began in present-day London, where Rose and the Doctor drop by for a routine check-in with her mother, Jackie Tyler (Camille Coduri), reinforcing that, until the very end, despite the priority of the Doctor in her life, she still put tremendous weight on her family and those she left behind. They learn millions of ghosts have been appearing three times a day on a regular schedule, a phenomenon attributed to residual echoes of lost loved ones and accepted by humanity; Jackie, too, has embraced this through reuniting with her long-passed father, a bit of foreshadowing for what’s to come. After tracing the energy to the Torchwood Institute – home of Doctor Who’s best spin-off – it’s learned they’ve been conducting controlled openings into a temporal breach in the void between parallel universes, letting in the ghosts in “ghost shifts” and harboring a mysterious sphere that came through the breach as a source of unlimited energy, while unknowingly letting in a team of Cybermen, who have infiltrated the institute.
Rose’s ex-boyfriend, Mickey Smith (Noel Clarke), has also come through the breach; after traveling with Rose and the Doctor, he had decided to live permanently in the parallel universe as head of the Preachers, a human resistance group fighting the newly-invented Cybermen, and take care of his grandmother, who wasn’t alive in their world. Mickey’s return is one of the most satisfying moments of closure in the two-part finale, as the goofy, fearful kid who spent the better part of two seasons being wildly insecure is now a confident, assertive, seemingly happy adult, much like Rose had come into her own – but we’re only given a beat to consider this, as he tells her he was engaged in battle when the entire population of Cybermen mysteriously disappeared, and was following a lead that took him back to their world using a universe hopping device. It’s not long before we learn how they did it, as the team that infiltrated Torchwood force open the breach and the millions of ghosts on the ghost shift are revealed to be the millions of missing Cybermen, manifested all over the world and wreaking havoc.
“Doomsday” Makes ‘Doctor Who’ History and Doubles Down on Drama
At this point, things are still feeling a bit like a standard exit finale in many ways; lots of action, character returns, and a primary enemy, but just before the end of the episode, it’s discovered the mysterious sphere wasn’t just a space object, but a ship built for the void between universes, holding a second enemy: four most powerful Daleks, the Cult of Skaro. “Doomsday” pulls the throttle back at full tilt, giving an unprecedented initial face-off between the Doctor’s two biggest enemies, who had until this point never met in battle. We also get the most legendary robot diss battle in Doctor Who‘s 63-year history, and maybe in the history of any sci-fi show ever, in the form of an exchange Mickey calls “Stephen Hawking meets the Speaking Clock” that sees both sides mercilessly hurl insults and lasers.
It’s all fun and games until Mickey accidentally touches the Genesis Ark, a prison ship built by the Time Lords during the Time War used to banish the entire Dalek race, and releases millions of Daleks into the world to join the melee with the Cybermen, and all the humans caught in between. Now there’s double the danger, but to double the intrigue, Mickey’s fellow Preacher, Jake (Andrew Hayden-Smith), uses a dimension-hopping device to take the Doctor to meet with Rose’s parallel universe dad, Pete Tyler (Shaun Dingwall), a successful millionaire who once had a hand in creating the Cybermen, but fought to take them down and lost his version of Rose’s mom in the process. Pete tells the Doctor he needs his help to seal the breach between parallel universes for good, or both universes risk being destroyed. When Pete, the Doctor, Mickey, and Jake return from the parallel universe, we’re given yet another satisfying moment when Jackie gets to see a lost loved one, and this time, he’s real. While it’s awkward for a moment, the chemistry is nearly instantaneous.
A Heartbreaking ‘Doctor Who’ Farewell to Rose Tyler
The ongoing universe-ending calamity, now maxed out in terms of the stakes, shifts back into focus when the Doctor realizes, thanks to his spiffy 3D glasses, that everything that’s come out of the void is covered in “void stuff, and if he opens the breach and reverses it, the void will suck it back out of where it doesn’t belong. He sends everyone to the parallel universe to protect them, but the ever-loyal Rose returns to the Doctor’s side to help him. The plan works, but at the last second, Rose loses her grip and falls towards the void. Pete uses the dimension-hopping device to save her, but as the breach is now sealed, it means she’s trapped in the parallel universe forever, and separated from the Doctor for good.
It’s a heartbreaking moment of loss, and of desperation. Two people whose bond was infinite have now been torn apart with utter finality, unexpectedly and with absolutely no notice, which isn’t always the case in exit stories. A while later, we’re given a glimpse at the parallel universe, where the Tylers are reunited, Jackie and Pete in love, and Mickey still hanging around. It’s almost like we’ve started back at the beginning, but Rose still hasn’t had that closure of saying goodbye. A dream leads her to Bad Wolf Bay, where the Doctor has harnessed the power of a star to have one last exchange through the single remaining breach. They banter for a few minutes, but the dagger to the heart comes at the very end: Rose breaks down and tells him she loves him, but the connection cuts before he’s gathered himself enough to finish his reply.
It’s been a full 20 years since the “Army of Ghosts” and “Doomsday” two-part finale first premiered in July 2006, but there’s never been anything that’s come close to Rose Tyler’s final journey with the Tenth Doctor. The high-stakes, history-making spectacle that ends in an intimate moment that will always be a “what if?” remains the most compelling, hilarious, and heartbreaking story arc ever created in the Doctor Who franchise. It’s a true testament to the duo being two of the all-time greatest characters brought to life on the small screen, as even after all these years, it still packs one hell of a punch to the gut.
Former NBA point guard Ty Lawson is defending himself after he was arrested for allegedly stealing a bottle of vodka and calling one of the arresting officers a “white bitch” in the process.
Lawson, 38, is accused of taking a $34 bottle of Tito’s vodka from a Castle Rock, Colorado liquor store and bringing it to a nearby restaurant on Thursday, July 16, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. He was charged with theft of less than $300 and later released.
Lawson took to social media on Thursday, July 23, where he seemingly addressed the incident.
“Being black in America is tough,” he wrote via X. “Being lied [to] by a pasty face white woman wild… stay outta castle rock Colorado!!!!”
UPDATE 5/7/26 at 5:00 p.m. — Dallas Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale has spoken out after the battery charge against her was dropped following a court hearing on Wednesday, May 6. A judge dismissed the misdemeanor charge nolle pros, meaning the prosecution decided it no longer wanted to pursue charges. “We are pleased that the State […]
He added in a subsequent post, “This the wildest and more racist shit I been thru.”
An arrest affidavit obtained by FOX31 revealed that the shop owner witnessed the alleged theft and saw Lawson taking a sip from the bottle outside of the store before relocating to a nearby restaurant, “where he took the bottle by the fire pit, then sat at the bar with the stolen bottle. The owner advised that the man was possibly drunk, as she said she witnessed him stumbling.”
The affidavit continued, “When officers arrived, they arrested the man, later identified as Tywon Lawson. Lawson faces a charge of theft less than $300, shoplifting. During the incident, Lawson’s friend, who was holding the Tito’s bottle, was also detained, but later released after officers determined he had no role in the shoplifting. The arresting officer noted that Lawson emanated the smell of an unknown alcoholic substance.”
When police confronted the former North Carolina Tar Heel at the restaurant, they say he became hostile, repeatedly calling an officer a “bitch” and “white bitch.” He also allegedly kicked the glass wall of his holding cell and spit on the floor.
Delonte West, the former NBA guard whose public battles with mental health and substance abuse have drawn widespread attention in recent years, has shared a hopeful new milestone: 100 days of sobriety. On March 25, a man named Ted Sheely posted a video of West on Facebook. In the clip, West appeared in good spirits, […]
TMZ reports he later apologized to officers for his behavior.
Lawson, a former McDonald’s All-American, was selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the 2009 NBA Draft, though he was immediately traded to the Denver Nuggets. He played eight seasons in the NBA, including six in Denver.
Before that, he was part of the University of North Carolina’s 2009 National Championship team, playing point guard for what is generally considered one of the best teams of college basketball’s modern era.
Last week marked the seventh time Lawson has been arrested. That includes his June 2008 arrest before his junior season in Chapel Hill. He pleaded guilty at the time to misdemeanor charges of driving after drinking and driving with a suspended license.
Former University of Kansas basketball player Lagerald Vick has been charged with attempted first-degree murder in Tennessee following his Saturday, July 11, arrest. Vick, 29, was arrested for his alleged role in a July 4 incident that occurred in his Memphis home, in which the former NCAA player is accused of allegedly shooting a man […]
He was also arrested twice for DUI in 2015, once in Denver that January and another time in Los Angeles in July. He pleaded guilty to charges related to the first incident and a judge ordered him to attend rehab after the second.
In 2020, he was banned from the Chinese Basketball Association after posting on social media what the league deemed to be “inappropriate” comments “inconsistent with the social responsibilities and values.”
Lawson’s most recent arrest came in Madrid in 2022 when he was allegedly involved in two altercations at an airport restaurant, including one in which he reportedly threw a glass at another customer. Authorities then escorted him to a different flight.

One of the world’s oldest roller coasters appears to derail mid-ride, guest recalls ‘track split’
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/big-dipper-blackpool-pleasure-beach-072326-1-797391f970b6405897e04e995234d9da.jpg)
Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s Big Dipper roller coaster appeared to derail, per video shared to TikTok. EW has reached out to the U.K. park for more information.
Supriya Ganesh’s next role has been revealed after her controversial exit from The Pitt as Dr. Samira Mohan.
Netflix announced on Wednesday, July 22, that Ganesh, 28, has joined its cast for the upcoming 13 Going on 30 reboot. Other cast members confirmed include Taylor Zakhar Perez, Owen Thiele, Nasim Pedrad and Myra Molloy.
The cast will be rounded out by Emily Bader, Logan Lerman, Adeline Rudolph, Jessica Alba, Taylor Ortega, Tim Meadows, Dan Bucatinsky, Charley McCain, Henry Samiri, Audrina Miranda and Kai Zen.
Three months earlier, news broke that Ganesh’s character would be written off The Pitt after appearing on the medical show for two seasons. Reports indicated in April that Ganesh’s exit was a “story-driven” choice. One month later, Ganesh opened up about the fan reaction — and uproar — to her character’s exit.
Supriya Ganesh’s departure from The Pitt has sent ripples across the internet. Ganesh, who played Dr. Samira Mohan on the HBO Max medical drama, was written off the series ahead of season 3 in a decision producers described as “story-driven.” In the season 2 finale, Mohan had a conversation with Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) before […]
“I tried to take a step away, because it’s just been so surreal,” Ganesh told Variety in May of the reaction. “The day that news broke, I saw my name was trending on Twitter, and I was like, ‘Gotta put the phone down and go outside.’ So, I haven’t really been keeping track of it, to be honest, but I’ve been getting such sweet, lovely messages from people, and I’ve honestly just been surprised at how much people love the character and saw so much of themselves in her, and that’s what I’m going to miss.”
While Ganesh couldn’t confirm any future projects yet, she teased that there are a “couple of things in the pipeline.”
In June, Ganesh made a rare comment about why her character was written off, telling the Los Angeles Times in a profile that it was a “creative decision” made by executive producers R. Scott Gemmill, Noah Wyle and John Wells.
“They work with such intention on the show and make all the choices that they make for that reason,” she noted. “So I think it’s better to ask them for answers.”
The Pitt‘s Noah Wyle broke his silence on Supriya Ganesh‘s controversial exit from the show. “It’s an inevitability that’s going to happen every season with this show, because as writers we’re hard-pressed to figure out what a lapse of time we can have and keep most of the ensemble together realistically,” Wyle, 54, told Variety […]
Ganesh, meanwhile, is channeling her energy into being positive. “I’m going to treasure all the memories I had working with these two [Sepideh Moafi and Isa Briones] and everyone else,” she added. “It’s been so great just getting all the love from the fans. I feel sad for them, too, that they won’t get to see this character.”
The Pitt has been renewed for season 3 on HBO Max.

What Do You Think Roomies?
Roomies, it looks like G Herbo and his baby girl Emmy are already creating the kind of memories that have the internet cracking up. The rapper recently gave fans a glimpse into their father-daughter bond, and one thing is clear — Emmy might already have a personality bigger than the room.

Emmy Already Has G Herbo Wrapped Around Her Finger
In a video shared to social media, G Herbo can be seen outside, walking around with a smile while talking about his daughter and joking about her growing confidence. Wearing a backward hat, Herbo laughed as he admitted he doesn’t know what he’s going to do with Emmy, saying, “I don’t know what the f*ck imma do with my baby, this girl crazy.”
Herbo then shared a funny story from a recent trip to the Ice Cream Museum with Emmy. While he was getting her a keychain, she spotted a squishy toy and asked for it. After the employee explained that the item would cost extra, Emmy reportedly responded, “It’s ok, my dad is rich.” The moment had Herbo laughing as he joked that he’s not sure what’s going on with his daughter and might have to send her to boarding school.
Herbo Gives Fans A Glimpse Into Daddy Duties
The proud dad also gave fans a look at more moments from their outing. In another clip, Emmy stands on a diving board before jumping into a pool filled with sprinkles and popping up with a hilarious reaction after the splash. Herbo also shared a mirror selfie featuring Emmy, Essex, and another child, showing off more sweet family moments. Emmy also stole the spotlight with her adorable look, rocking a pulled-back, puffy ponytail, earrings, and a matching tank-top-and-shorts set. Fans couldn’t help but notice her resemblance to her dad, with her little expression giving major “I’m my daddy’s twin” energy.
Roomies Couldn’t Get Enough Of Emmy’s Confidence
Fans quickly ran to TSR’s Instagram comment section and lit it up over Emmy’s big personality.

What Do You Think Roomies?

One of the side effects of producing an entire episode of animated television in less than six days is that there’s not a lot of time for crucial quality checks. For Trey Parker and Matt Stone, though, maintaining that kind of Saturday Night Live energy allows South Park to stay on top of current events, for better or worse. It lets them sneak clever double entendres past the censors and pretty much make fun of whatever they want because they have the resources to turn whatever’s in the news into an episode, or in the case of Season 14’s “Insheeption,” knock out a parody while it’s still part of the pop culture conversation.
While being able to work so quickly certainly has its advantages (until election night), there are also blind spots, which is exactly what happened with “Insheeption.” Long story short (“I Should Have Never Gone Ziplining” reference … nice!), Trey Parker was accused of plagiarizing Dan Gurewitch and David Young of CollegeHumor, forcing the creative duo to call the guys themselves and issue an apology. The accusation spread quickly online because the similarities between the CollegeHumor sketch and the finished episode were difficult to ignore.
Unlike most comedians who get caught stealing jokes red-handed (looking at you, Denis Leary), Parker and Stone admitted to the impropriety and later credited Gurewitch and Young, who wrote the “Inception Characters Don’t Understand Inception” skit that inspired the now-infamous episode of South Park.
Trey Parker Hadn’t Seen The Movie He Was Making Fun Of
Like most South Park episodes, production starts on Thursday night, and the finished episode needs to be turned in to Comedy Central by Wednesday morning to make it to air on time. According to the mini-commentaries that Parker and Stone reluctantly recorded for every DVD release, it hadn’t occurred to them to parody Inception, a movie Trey Parker hadn’t yet seen, until their episode about Stan Marsh’s hoarding problem was already well underway.
As soon as the plot developed to the point where it’s revealed Mr. Mackey also had a hoarding problem, and hypnosis was the only way to help him and Stan overcome their condition, everyone on the writing staff thought the episode now known as “Insheeption” would make for the perfect Inception parody. There was just one problem: Trey Parker hadn’t seen the movie.
While Inception had a 25-week theatrical run, which is pretty much unthinkable these days, Parker and Stone couldn’t make it to a showing because of their grueling production schedule. They also couldn’t find any DVD screeners or anything else that would lead them directly to the source material quickly, so Stone, having seen the movie earlier in the run, started looking for parodies online, eventually landing on CollegeHumor’s “Inception Characters Don’t Understand Inception” skit.
In the CollegeHumor skit, several lines appear to have been lifted verbatim by Parker while he was working on the South Park episode, including how insane the dream-level logic is, how empty and scary the dream spaces are, and how every Inception agent was super stoked about how complex and cool it all was. In both the CollegeHumor skit and the South Park episode that followed, the characters meant to represent Leonardo DiCaprio’s Dom Cobb say, word for word, “Sometimes my thoughts of my dead wife manifest themselves as trains.” If you look at the writing on the wall, it’s obvious that South Park plagiarized CollegeHumor, but here’s the funny part: they absolutely didn’t mean to.
Captain Hindsight Has The Answer
While scrambling to parody a movie he hadn’t seen, using only parody content as source material because he couldn’t get a clean copy of Inception, Parker took Stone literally when they sat down to watch the CollegeHumor skit. The joke Stone was chasing and trying to convey to Parker involved how egregiously complex the dialogue was whenever the film explained its dream logic. When Parker and Stone saw the skit, the latter mistakenly assumed they were quoting the movie directly and presenting those lines out of context to highlight how ridiculous the dialogue actually was when delivered in a rapid-fire fashion.
In a conversation with The New York Times that surfaced after Parker and Stone faced backlash for ripping off CollegeHumor, Stone was forthcoming about what actually happened behind the scenes at South Park, stating, “It was like, Let’s parody the gobbledygook, because honestly, that movie, all those explanations, and explanations of explanations… We thought their joke was that a lot of those lines were actually in the movie, and they were banging them against each other, and showing that the ‘Inception’ characters didn’t even know ‘Inception.’ That was a mistake, and it was an honest mistake.”
The conversation was capped off with Stone saying, “It’s just because we do the show in six days, and we’re stupid and we just threw it together. But in the end, there are some lines that we had to call and apologize for.” In other words, thanks to Captain Hindsight, the South Park creators never tried to deny the allegations that they ripped off CollegeHumor, but they did everything they could to make it right after the fact.
Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 5.This week’s episode of House of the Dragon sees the plot thickening against Rhaenyra Targaryen’s (Emma D’Arcy) rule, as she faces crises in both King’s Landing and at home. In one of the episode’s best scenes, she and Daemon (Matt Smith) discuss the plot against her in the Sept, switching between the common tongue and High Valyrian so as not to be understood by those around them. Although they remain in disagreement, Rhaenyra and Daemon’s High Valyrian conversation is fascinating. It’s not the first time the ancient language has been spoken in the series, but it does act as a reminder that, right now, House of the Dragon is the only series in the A Song of Ice and Fire universe that can give us these important scenes.
2026 seems to be the year of the YouTubers as internet culture has taken over Hollywood during the first half of the year. First was Markiplier’s (Mark Fischbach) directorial debut, Iron Lung, which exceeded expectations at the box office and paved the way for the YouTuber to distribute his movie independently. Next was A24, which took in a young filmmaker whose directorial debut was not only a success in theaters, but also in the streaming charts.
The filmmaker in question is Kane Parsons, who runs the channel Kane Pixels, which has over 3.51 million subscribers and 51 total videos. The filmmaker is known for his videos based on the creepypasta story The Backrooms, a fictional location known for its liminal-space aesthetic and online notoriety. These videos went viral, with each installment earning millions of views; his first entry, “The Backrooms (Found Footage),” sat at 91 million views, and it was not long until film studios sought out the content creator to bring his viral hits to the big screen.
Backrooms was an A24 psychological horror released in theaters in May 2026 and now streaming. The feature sits at #5 on Vudu’s Top 10 Movies in the United States, sitting between 300 and Obsession. Backrooms stars Chiwetel Ejiofor as Clark, who discovers an entrance to “the backrooms” in his furniture store. Backrooms has a reported budget of around $10 million, and it became a box office success, earning over $384.4 million worldwide.
Is ‘Backrooms’ Worth Watching?
Not only did Backrooms perform well at the box office, but it also did well in the ratings, earning an 87% Certified Fresh Critics’ Score and a 74% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes, as well as a 3.4-star rating on Letterboxd. Critics praised Parsons for producing a successful film at such a young age and for how the feature made the concept of the Backrooms “haunting” but also “inviting”. However, some criticized Backrooms as “unsatisfying” and said it loses steam due to its ending. However, audiences praised Backrooms for being able to depict this online creepypasta on the big screen and want to see a sequel, as they believe the concept has potential for more storytelling. Collider’s Aidan Kelley gave Backrooms an 8/10 in his review, praising Parsons for his “marvelous sense of suspense and tension,” its production design, and actors’ performances, but criticized the choices made by the film’s characters.
Backrooms is available to stream on Vudu. Follow Collider for more updates.
