  <description>Ian's out this week, so Maggie brought in her friend Lola to discuss everyone's favorite prototypical summer blockbuster: Jaws. They talk score, editing, tension, and the principle of Chekhov's compressed air canisters. Lola decides the shark was the true victim here, and Maggie explains why getting drunk on a boat while hunting a murder shark is a bad idea.
