Finally, the very-nearly-lost episode on Luc Besson's action-packed space adventure THE FIFTH ELEMENT is here! Get French with us, and be sure to bring your Multi-pass 'cuz we're goin' to Fhloston PARADISE!

In this episode, we investigate a rivalry between two magicians, one with a closely guarded secret that the other desperately wants. We discuss this tale of obsession and turn-of-the-century intrigue while unpacking Nolan's narrative design and approach to storytelling. Prepare for loads of Michael Caine impressions.

In this episode, we fight the evil Ming the Merciless and save the lovely Dale Arden with the help of Prince Vultan as the music of Queen plays triumphantly in the background!
