Ant-Man And The Wasp: 19 WTF Moments

9. The Truth Serum Gag

Perhaps the funniest single sequence in the entire movie sees Sonny Burch (Walton Goggins) having his henchman Uzman (Divian Ladwa) interrogate Luis for the location of Scott, Hank and Hope.

Uzman has "psychoactive" means to acquire the information, and when Luis remarks that it's basically a truth serum, Uzman gets hilariously offended, as apparently no such concoction exists.

The "suggestibility" cocktail quickly makes Luis truthfully answer any question he's asked, but combined with his tendency to tell long, rambling stories, it also causes him to detour several times as he discusses Scott's divorce, his grandmother's jukebox, X-Con's financial struggles, and Scott and Hope's relationship issues.

By this point, Burch is infuriated and implores him to explain where Scott literally is at this very moment, to which Luis quickly replies, "The woods."

What a sequence, and what a wonderful way to one-up Pena's fantastic work on the first movie.
