Why Frank Hates Phil

Why Frank Hates Phil (full title: Why Frank Hates Phil | A Story From Phil's Past) is a one-shot and the first video in Spyman's Cosmos made by The Philmer. Its main purpose was introducing his character into the universe. It was released on May 6, 2016 and was inspired by OkiWan's similar video titled Why Frank Hates OkiWan, which had a similar story, but was sadly deleted.
The video features only two characters: Phil and Frank and is mainly set in one location - Frank's flat doorstep.
== Plot ==
The story takes place in 2014. After hearing about a new neighbour moving in, Phil decides to visit him into the neighbourhood by giving him cookies and milk. When the neighbour accepts the offer, it is revealed that he is Frank. He humbly takes a glass of milk and drinks it, only to spit it out quickly. He asks Phil if the milk was soya, which it wasn't and says he's allergic to regular milk. Phil tries to calm him down and apologise, but Frank turns away from him and closes the door, calling him an idiot. However after a second Phil presses the doorbell, making Frank open the door again. The boy tries to apologise one more time, but his new grumpy neighbour doesn't accept it. Another second passes and the situation repeats itself, only this time Phil asks Frank if he knows who he really is. After a ridiculous argument and Phil's reveal of his other name, which wasn't even real, Frank finally gets rid of young Phil.
Later, Frank leaves his house to go eat something in town and terminate the taste of milk. Soon we see him already in front of the restaurant, looking at the sign with its name. He says he hopes for a better day now, after which it is revealed that the restaurant's name is OkiWan's Restaurant.

== Trivia ==
=== General ===
* A prequel to the deleted Why Frank Hates Okiwan.
* The video's inspiration from OkiWan was uploaded the same day, early in the morning. The Philmer saw it right after he woke up and he got so inspired that he managed to do everything - creating the story, making Frank's template, animating and editing - in the span of six hours.
* At the end, when the name of the restaurant Frank went to was revealed, a time card appears, followed by a rage meme animation, that is meant to represent Frank's rage. The time card says "2 minutes and 24 seconds later", which is the exact runtime of OkiWan's video.
* The Philmer's first Spyman's Cosmos video and actually his first video with a plot overall.
*Both this video and A Christmas Carol by No-Life also have versions in Polish, as at the beginning of his career, The Philmer wanted to release videos in English and his native language. However the Polish version for this video has been made unpublic due to having strong connections to Spyman's Cosmos, which some Polish people wouldn't get without watching it first and of course knowing English.
**However the Polish version of A Christmas Carol by No-Life is still available, as it can be easily watched without knowing the universe.
=== Continuity ===
* A direct clip from this video appears in Corrupted Chaos and the event is mentioned by OkiWan.
* This video is referenced in the 2020 remake of its own inspiration - Why Frank Hates OkiWan - 2020 Edition.
=== References ===
* The simple design of the staircase in Frank's block is inspired by the one in The Philmer's real life house, which has a two-coloured yellow and white wall.
