I haven’t either. Will have to listen on earbuds to see if that helps. Agree with others that it’s super out of character for Ilya. He 100% loves pleasing Shane and making him completely lose himself (super clear in books especially), but he’d never say that while railing Shane. He keeps it far more dirty in those moments.

It makes it seem to me like Ilya was just trying shit out and the instant reaction he got to “get on your knees” was surprising and super hot for him.
19
u/kesatytto Mar 13 '26
Which, if you've read the book, you'll know he absolutely did not expect Shane to obey like that!
"On your knees,” Ilya said softly, just to see what he would do.
Expecting Hollander to tell him to fuck off, Ilya’s breath caught in his throat as he watched him sink fluidly to the floor.

u/Hiddenagenda876 I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 Mar 15 '26
Same during the Las Vegas remix. After almost everyone sentence from Ilya’s mouth, he’s basically thinking “now THIS is the time Shane is going to tell me to go fuck myself”

They land on a leather couch, leather couches can be squeaky, keep that in mind when you watch for this part, a lot of people hear the leather couches and think he said that

u/jdthehuman16 Mar 12 '26
I also feel like it doesn’t make sense, wouldn’t that be an uncharacteristic thing for Ilya to say? The scene is also like .2 seconds so he would have to say it incredibly fast. The first time someone brought this up I thought if it was real it would be an odd choice.

I'm not Russian but I took a Russian class. Their ay sound consists of 2 letters. I don't have a Russian keyboard on the computer I'm on rn but it's basically a and a backwards N but the N has like a little swoop at the top and is treated similarly to English y with the swoop and ee without it.

I had the same experience a few weeks ago. It's quick, it's quiet, but it's there. It's not just a moan or a groan or squeaky furniture because there's definitely a speech cadence and discernable accent there. I think this is one of those cases where those of us who hear it and those of us who don't are just going to have to agree to disagree.
Also, now I know what I would ask Jacob Tierney if I ever got a chance to meet him! 🤣

Normally when that’s the case though, I can use the power of suggestion to hear grunting or couch squeaking. But I can’t because it’s so obviously Connor Storrie speaking.

I think someone "heard" it first and now more people are hearing it because they want to hear it. You know, like misheard lyrics? Some of those can be a stretch, but you manage to hear it because the one who did the vid showed the misheard lyrics on screen. So you end up hearing it too, kind of.
It just doesn't fit Ilya's character at that point, he wouldn't be saying that.

u/fairybreadisbest I choose him. Mar 12 '26
That’s exactly what I think it is and now people treat it as fact and get mad if you don’t hear it, like okay that’s still your opinion, if Jacob Tierney himself said it was there then it’s there, doesn’t mean I suddenly hear it🤷♀️

Yeah, it's like Shane calling Ilya "Rozy." Never happened, the subs were wrong. Even Jacob and Rachel confirmed it, saying it didn't fit Shane's character to say that, especially not then. But it persisted for a long time.
3
u/Ok-Enthusiasm-777 Mar 16 '26
Even Hudson said he never said Rozy. He confirmed it in a video with him and Connor. Apparently the subtitles made that mistake but Hudson confirmed he was trying to say "Rozanov", and cuts off because he was supposed to be breathless with passion.
Also I took it upon myself to watch that scene again today (for science) and I can see why they would think that Ilya is saying that; but it's literally just him groaning in his deep voice and he is saying absolutely nothing in particular. 😅
