Remember the Starbucks cup that made its way to Westeros [1] and shook the Game of Thrones fandom in 2019? Well, allow me to introduce a similar phenomenon: the Yeti and plastic water bottle of Little Women [2].

Months after Greta Gerwig's film debuted in theatres, an eagle-eyed viewer noticed a couple of misplaced objects in the background of a scene with Timothée Chalamet. Tik Tok user @madelynrancourt [3] — who has seen the movie more than seven times — recently spotted the standout containers in a scene between the March sisters and Laurie [4] (played by Chalamet) in his grandfather's home. Plastic water bottles certainly didn't exist in the 19th century, and I'm pretty sure Laurie didn't have a hidden time-travel ability, so . . . I guess this movie has one singular flaw! The bottles even escaped the cast's attention when they broke down the scene for Vanity Fair late last year.

This discovery quickly ignited a conversation between fans on Twitter. How did we miss this for so long? Is it a Yeti or a Hydro Flask? (It's a Yeti.) Who's going to tell Gerwig? Who's the culprit? No one from the cast has commented yet, so it's really hard to say. I assume it's Chalamet purely based on promixity, but in reality, everyone needs to stay well-hydrated on set. Maybe they'll take a note from the Game of Thrones cast and start to point fingers during late-night interviews. All I can say is, this has inspired me to watch Little Women again. For research, of course.
