I have been wondering since i watched Simon and Marcy. What is chicken soup Simon's referring when he found out Marcy sickness became more worst?
Note that Simon is a smart guy and there is no way a chicken soup able to cure Marcy.

- Chicken soup is well known for it's anti-cold effect. Every mother know about it, actually before people started to use penicilin as antibiotic, it was the chicken soup that was saving lives, so yeah, it was pretty reasonable to search for it.77.50.136.199 14:27, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
- It was just plain chicken soup. Sure, soup really doesn't contain specific medical qualities that help fight disease, but eating soup when sick is something people have done for years on end. In a post-apocalyptic world where you can't find medicine you settle for soup. - Alchemical (talk) 01:03, May 14, 2013 (UTC)
The way Simon says it leads me to believe that he's saying chicken soup as a stand in for some kind of serious medication that young Marcy would not be familiar with, its also likely that Marcy was remembering it the way she understood it at 7. The Soupery is very similar to a drugstore and the Clambulance could easily be just that, a food truck Simon mistook for an ambulance. It seemed like this to me from the first viewing, so I may be missing something by underanalyzing it. Epicification (talk) 04:22, July 28, 2014 (UTC)
