Entire Napoleon Dynamite Plot Pieced Together Through Friends' Quotes
AUSTIN, TXâAlthough he has never seen the 2004 indie hit Napoleon Dynamite, Michael Osman, 23, has cobbled together its entire plot via his friends' endless quoting of the film. "Well, Napoleon's brother said, 'Don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day,' and then got a visit from his Internet girlfriend," Osman said. "Then Napoleon told his Uncle Rico that he could make 120 bucks 'in like five seconds,' and went to work on a chicken farm. Then Napoleon gave Trisha a drawing, said, 'It took me like three hours to finish the shading on your upper lip,' and asked her to the dance." Osman added that he has a pretty good idea what a liger looks like.
"Some things are just morally reprehensible, like using science to save people's lives."
"They're not stems, they're babies! And they're not cells, they're babies! And it's not research, it's babies!"
and so on.
