phil orders rita's favorite drink and rita sets a trap for phil in #groundhogday minute 48.

from sure thing to 12:01, cause and effect to shadow play, maybe #groundhogday isn't all that original, but phil don't care; he's got not-so-great drinks to drink to impress rita in minute 47,

rita describes her perfect guy, phil checks off the details, but can he really change these things about himself while inside a time loop? what can you change in a time loop? it's #groundhogday minute 46.

vans, donuts, onions, and the social penetration theory (if i could only remember that name)... it's phil trying to get to know rita in #groundhogday minute 45.

phil's fiance, cheap movie tickets, phil as his own shadow, and hitting up rita for ideas on what to do with a time loop... #groundhogday minute 44.

phil embraces being weird for his date with laraine, i try not to get sidetracked by heidi ii, but do take a stab at interpreting the costume choices in #groundhogday minute 43.

phil is getting really familiar with the day, but that doesn't mean he's been at it for a long time (wolf gnards), in #groundhogday minute 42.

step three in phil connoring: profit. and the movie is careful to give us room to be forgiving; nancy needs to be into this or we might not like phil going forward. it's #groundhogday minute 41.
