"2014 Movie Catch-Up" is the first episode of the fifth season of film review web series Half in the Bag, and 77th episode in the series overall. The episode aired in two parts on September 23 and September 26 in 2014 on Blip.[1][2]

In this episode, Mike and Jay have survived the gas leak. They seal up the pipe and discuss 2014 films they have not yet covered. Their quick fix has unforeseen consequences, however.[2]

Plot[]

The noxious gas did not give Mike or Jay superpowers. After recovering from the gas, Mike and Jay seal the toxic exhaust pipe with duct tape, which clears the air in Mr. Plinkett house. They talk about movies in 2014 they have seen but have not discussed together and movies they anticipate seeing.

However, sealing the pipe causes the gas to back up in the nearby waste facility. A panicked employee in a hazmat suit cries out as alarms go off.
