Randal Grills Elias About Sex, Explained：piece together
A conversation about an internet rumor turns into a very personal interrogation. What sounds like banter keeps circling one question—whether the other man has ever had sex—until he offers a deadpan explanation about a tiny creature called Pillow Pants. “You're a virgin, aren't you?”
あらすじ
Two men are talking about a website one of them has described. One asks whether it is a hoax; the other turns the talk into an interrogation about the first man's girlfriend, Myra. The reply is a straight-faced account of a tiny troll named Pillow Pants.

What's really going on
At first the talk is about an internet rumor: 'how do we know this isn't a hoax?' The question of whether there are pictures turns into a test of experience—if he has never seen such things, he must be 'as blind as Anne Frank.' From there the pressure moves to Myra and whether the two have had sex. The answer is not a confession but a straight-faced rule about Pillow Pants, a troll said to live inside Myra and bite it off if he puts his thing in her. The absurdity keeps the exchange funny while the pressure stays personal: 'You're a virgin, aren't you?'
Theme
Dark humorA deadpan account of a troll living inside a girlfriend turns a crude interrogation into straight-faced comedy.
AbsurdityThe more earnestly the rules of Pillow Pants are explained, the more ridiculous the explanation for not having sex becomes.
発音のポイント
- am I gonna — Squeeze 'am I gonna' into one beat and stress 'who' and 'hang'.
- because of — Blend 'because of' into one unit and put the weight on 'Pillow Pants'.
- You'd know — Let the d in 'You'd' almost disappear; land on 'know' and 'ever'.
You know, I've never pieced this together until right now.Until this moment, the speaker had never put the clues together; the line marks the instant a suspicion becomes a clear conclusion.
You're a virgin, aren't you?The 'blind as Anne Frank' jab leads straight into the blunt question: if he has never seen such pictures, is he a virgin?
Well, we can't because of Pillow Pants.This is his explanation for why he and Myra have not had sex: a creature called Pillow Pants is said to be the obstacle.
Pillow Pants is her pussy troll.The line makes the joke explicit: Pillow Pants is the troll just described as living inside Myra and keeping them from having sex.
You'd know this if you ever had a girlfriend.In his view, the other man's lack of a girlfriend explains why he does not understand that couples talk about sex; the line is a jab, not a neutral observation.
このシーンについての質問
Why does the questioner suspect the other man is a virgin?
The suspicion grows out of the picture talk: one line says that if you've seen one such picture, you've seen them all, and the reply asks what if someone has never seen anything like that. The answer is 'then you must be as blind as Anne Frank,' which leads to 'You're a virgin, aren't you?'
Why does he say he and Myra cannot have sex?
Because of Pillow Pants: he says a little troll lives inside Myra and will bite it off if he puts his thing in her. He must wait until the troll is peed out on her 21st birthday.
What is Lister Fiend?
It is the name blamed for why a kiss has not happened; the next line asks if it is her mouth troll, but the dialogue never confirms it outright.
Why does he mention couples talking about sex?
It answers the doubt that Myra would tell him such a thing: in his view, boyfriends and girlfriends talk about sex, so it is normal. The next line becomes a jab: 'You'd know this if you ever had a girlfriend.'
