Summary

Every closet on Dateline has some secrets in it, but none so big as in BEHIND THE CLOSET DOOR. When a loving mother and librarian is found murdered in her closet by her mild mannered Home Depot engineer geologist boyfriend, police think they’ve got their killer. But it’s not until several embarrassingly awkward sting operations, a dedicated son, and a prison straight out of Les Mis that it’s revealed that the whole theory could be a giant mistake by police! Thank goodness we have Josh Mankiewicz on the case, because he’s putting on his floaties and is plunging straight into the deep end of this mystery. Will his tweets give us a hint to the real answer? Do you think the boyfriend was involved? Did you crumble crackers on the grilled chicken gyro? Does Kimberly live in an actual shoe box? Who had the last A & W Root Beer? The answers all lie BEHIND THE CLOSET DOOR. Official Description from NBCU: After a mother is found murdered in her Virginia home, her son embarks on a 20-year quest for justice that leads him down a dark and twisted path.

0:24.5

When to the movies where they're conditioning and I saw a movie that I need to tell everyone about Katie and I were reached out about it by the producer Julie Cohen who's like an internet friend of ours like we pretend we're friends.

0:37.9

I might brag that we know her she directed the RBG movie that was nominated for Oscars and stuff like that she was on the directors of that so and she was a producer on date line was she directed this new movie it's called everybody and so date line and Liz Cole and Liz Cole who's the head head head honcho at date line who we also know is one of the producers on it and it started with this story that key.

1:37.7

So good wow everyone should see it everyone that wants to be an ally everyone that is lgbtq plus i a I said that in the wrong order with the if you don't know what the ice stands for this is what the ice stands for anyways it's a date line movie essentially it's a full on date line feature it was featured if everyone gets their news letter every week which we do which tells you the story that's coming up I highly recommend if you're not getting date lines E blast they have all of their stories that they're working on that week.

2:07.7

And this was featured in that too so just a little plug thank you Julie you created another masterpiece so go check it out everybody so we're covering the episode that we skipped which was the main episode that everyone asked us to not skip behind the closet door because they wanted to know what we thought and I have thoughts I'm assuming Katie has a lot of thoughts so I have some thoughts but I do also got manks thoughts because manquist pretty candid on Twitter about how.

2:37.7

He feels which is not normal he normally tries to be much more vague he's fairly candid straight up in the episode you can tell there's a.

2:48.1

He does have a tall or him yes for sure for sure so this episode is called behind the closet door and it is season 31 episode 25 it aired June 23rd 2023 hosted by our beloved manky and we learned that Andrea

3:05.8

and god loved swimming we're getting so much swimming B roll ominous swimming B roll yeah correct

3:12.6

or you're always looks ominous yeah you're right it well even at the Olympics you think so if it's B roll it looks ominous if it's if you're watching somebody compete just in live video feed that's fine if it's shot in any kind of an artistic way there's something about swimming that seems sinister

3:34.4

you things or doing the spin at the end of the pool we need to get around the other way yeah diving in yeah I mean me have always had a huge phobia about the filter at the bottom of the pool I thought it was going to suck me in I could never go near it which was compounded when I saw this movie recently where these two girls are trapped underneath the metal cover of a pool do you know what movie I'm talking about I don't but I would understand that these women get trapped by a sadistic killer

4:04.2

underneath a cover a metal cover in like wreck pool that's bad what obvious that the one of the worst movies I've ever seen and I maybe we should cover it was it a saw it's like a saw it's like was made by Hulu or something or it's it was bought by Hulu for very little money to air on Hulu

4:26.0

out scathing review yeah it was so bad that I went on rotten tomatoes to see what other people thought okay so this is about Andrea Sincata she loves swimming she went every day she also loved reading and became a librarian

4:40.7

which we learn about from her one of her best friends a gentleman named Kermit Kermit Frazier I'm obsessed yeah it's beautiful he's a great he is so dignified looking especially for her

4:56.0
