As we wrap up our deep dive into EL James' "The Mister", we have a lot of questions. Well, one question really: What the hell?

But also: Why was absolutely nothing resolved? Why do Maxim and Alessia treat her father like his opinion should matter at all? How much were they paying that translator? Is that another half-finished hotel? Do automobiles actually qualify as a "fun theme"? Why is our hero thinking about his mother during sex? Tickety-boo????

We'll address some of these questions, but we've also got a ton of listener emails, Dumb Sentences, an Amazon review quiz, a Goodreads review quiz, a look at the role of Albanian translators in perilous situations throughout history, as well as a listen as to what Alessia's father's wedding toast might have sounded like.

We ALSO have a very fun anacrostic puzzle that listener Amanda made for us. Download it and give it a shot here!

Thank you for reading along with us on The Mister, especially everyone who wrote in, created fanfic and memes, and shared their comments here! This one was a lot of fun. We'll take next week off for the fourth but will have a book giveaway and a Trucking Through Time assignment soon!

I've found use of "tickety-boo" is a useful indicator of someone at work I'm not going to get on with. Textbook use of passive-aggressive cutesy phrases. (I think I'm just pouring all my vitriol into two specific people I can't stand, actually.)

Especially when you're having a case of The Mondays.

Oh my god yes I was trying to think of a possible American equivalent phrase and that one is PERFECT. Someone who wants something done "tickety-boo" would definitely accuse you of having a case of the Mondays.

Tickety-boo is the poor man's Tinkerty-Tonk, anyway.
