- 3:04Speaker 1: I'm not going on that far. I'm just not you know,
- 3:07Speaker 1: I'm not gonna. I don't. I'm not the guy in
- 3:09Speaker 1: the gym that lifts the shirt and I'm gonna get
- 3:15Speaker 1: to that point and then I'm gonna start.
- 3:17Speaker 3: I'm not gonna do it. Okay, Okay, I don't want
- 3:20Speaker 3: to be that guy. There's too many people doing that.
- 3:23Speaker 2: No, just just a little flex was good enough.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Here's a little synopsis anyway, gosh, I don't even credit.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Writer director.
- 3:34Speaker 3: This is directed by Kevin Dowling and written by Linda
- 3:38Speaker 3: Louis cell Music and it aired April twenty third, two
- 3:43Speaker 3: thousand and two.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Boy that was a long time ago. Synopsis.
- 3:46Speaker 3: Roy needs a mentor for a group of business project
- 3:49Speaker 3: at school, so she.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Has to retired grandfather Richard to help out. At first,
- 3:54Speaker 1: he's hesitant, but eventually gets a little too involved in
- 3:57Speaker 1: the endeavor.
- 3:59Speaker 3: He'll so begins to realize that retired life might not
- 4:04Speaker 3: be for him. Okay, So now we're at Rory's economics
- 4:07Speaker 3: project at the beginning along with the group has to
- 4:11Speaker 3: pitch a consumer product to present to the fair for
- 4:14Speaker 3: her econ class. Group needs parent business advisor, so she
- 4:19Speaker 3: has Laurela I, and Laurel I suggested Richard. Richard says no,
- 4:24Speaker 3: he wants to fix his car and gets sprayed with grease.
- 4:28Speaker 3: And then Emily you know.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Gets up his butt a little bit and says, dude,
- 4:33Speaker 1: you know he help your granddaughter, what's your pat wake up?
- 4:36Speaker 3: She smacks him around a little bit in the driveway,
- 4:39Speaker 3: and Paris pitches this stylish first aid kit made specifically
- 4:43Speaker 3: for the modern teenager. All right, so James Emily practically
- 4:48Speaker 3: forces Richard into agree to be Roy's advisors. Why do
- 4:52Speaker 3: you think he was so hesitant first?
- 4:54Speaker 2: I don't know. But this episode is fantastic actually, because
- 4:57Speaker 2: it really showcases so many care I mean, it goes
- 5:01Speaker 2: from Emily's relationship to Rory's too. I mean there's a
- 5:07Speaker 2: ending that is to die for, like a sucker punch
- 5:10Speaker 2: with Dean. So this episode is a good shot. So,
- 5:14Speaker 2: but it does start out I don't know why he's hesitant,
- 5:18Speaker 2: but I do know that it starts out with you
- 5:22Speaker 2: with your new Luke's Omelet Special, and you have like
- 5:26Speaker 2: this board that I'm sure you did not draw at all,
- 5:29Speaker 2: because I've seen your handwriting in real life, supposed to me,
- 5:37Speaker 2: because it was a very nice looking board with lots
- 5:40Speaker 2: of color, and the penmanship was very nicely done on
- 5:46Speaker 2: this board, you know, and it had your new Omelet special,
- 5:50Speaker 2: and and of course Lorla comes in to push your
- 5:53Speaker 2: buttons to like order the omelet because it's the newest thing,
- 5:58Speaker 2: and then totally changes her order, yeah, because she doesn't
- 6:03Speaker 2: want bacon bits in it, but she wants to side
- 6:06Speaker 2: of bacon. And then I mean, you two are just
- 6:10Speaker 2: so endearing and brilliant in this, you know what.
- 6:15Speaker 1: I damn geez, we got to make more episodes. Man.
- 6:18Speaker 1: I miss working with her. I know her timing is
- 6:22Speaker 1: so good.
- 6:24Speaker 2: Buttons are so fun to.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Push right right right. The relationship to characters.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Right, yeah, it was so great and so fast and
- 6:32Speaker 2: so great, and it just moved. I mean that was
- 6:35Speaker 2: like the beginning scene, yeah, and it went right from
- 6:38Speaker 2: there until like just right where you were saying, like
- 6:42Speaker 2: Rory goes to Richard for business advice well after being
- 6:45Speaker 2: hesitant about it and more. Lie is actually the key
- 6:49Speaker 2: component that convinces Rory to go to her grandpa to
- 6:53Speaker 2: ask for that help on the project.
- 6:57Speaker 3: Right, I'm have to pull the reins a little bit
- 6:59Speaker 3: on this stage.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Code. All right, you're getting way of the story here.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Oh I am.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Let's pull up here.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Let's okay, tell me, let's take a knee, have a
- 7:06Speaker 3: little water towel.

- 7:14Speaker 2: and drink some more of Scottie Peas big my coffee cousin.
- 7:20Speaker 2: It's so good.
- 7:21Speaker 3: I knew that Paris was going to have a great idea.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Oh that girl is brilliant and it was.
- 7:27Speaker 3: A great idea. James, let me ask you this, and
- 7:29Speaker 3: this is a deeply personal question. You don't have to
- 7:32Speaker 3: answer it, okay, all right? What design would you want
- 7:37Speaker 3: your first aid.
- 7:38Speaker 2: Kit to have in two thousand and two?
- 7:41Speaker 1: No, right now, gone now.
- 7:44Speaker 2: In two thousand and two, I wanted it to be Madonna,
- 7:47Speaker 2: But I mean right now, huh, oh my gosh, I'm
- 7:55Speaker 2: really loving Gilmore Girls would be a fun one, obviously.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Let's you know what that's right? You nailed it there.
- 8:02Speaker 2: It is like, can we just do that flashy young
- 8:07Speaker 2: more girl first Aid kit?
- 8:09Speaker 3: Would they give you a break on the licensing? Do
- 8:11Speaker 3: you get like an employee discount?

- 8:23Speaker 2: Let's do it. Let's let's make these I mean Paris's idea.
- 8:27Speaker 2: We do have to give her credit.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, okay, great, yeah, of course on on
- 8:32Speaker 1: the actual product, we'll give Paris credit. We might call
- 8:36Speaker 1: it something like, uh, I don't know.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Paris's first aid she and Bright first Aid Kit or
- 8:45Speaker 2: whatever it is.

- 8:49Speaker 2: remember that.
- 8:50Speaker 3: Part bandage and gauze and.
- 8:52Speaker 2: But the place for remember it, said CD Holder. Yeah,

- 9:11Speaker 1: No, well, I mean, so, so we got Paris and
- 9:15Speaker 1: Richard working very well together.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you think that those two are alike Paris
- 9:20Speaker 2: and Richard very much. So. Yeah, they're both grumpy as
- 9:24Speaker 2: all get out, and they stand up for what they
- 9:27Speaker 2: believe very strongly. Together. They were really fun to watch
- 9:31Speaker 2: in this episode. I was hoping for more.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Actually, mm hmm.
- 9:35Speaker 2: Do you know that it was pivotal this episode for
- 9:38Speaker 2: Richards starting his own business after this, there was a

- 10:17Speaker 3: an Episode's so all he did was grinn and laugh
- 10:20Speaker 3: Never never seen the guy do it. And then he
- 10:22Speaker 3: gets angry at loral I for mentioning I mean, like
- 10:25Speaker 3: really just like pitches a hissy right in the kitchen
- 10:31Speaker 3: because she mentioned to his mother that he doesn't eat carbs.
- 10:36Speaker 2: I know, yeah, Okay, I didn't know two thousand and
- 10:40Speaker 2: two was so that was a big storyline. I thought

- 10:47Speaker 2: with her.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Yeah, and now you know his mother. Now that his
- 10:50Speaker 1: mother has no she won't stop asking questions about his

- 11:00Speaker 2: To you that way at work, what would you do, James,
- 11:03Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, we'd have to have a talk, like
- 11:05Speaker 2: just just a little private talk, like you know, just
- 11:12Speaker 2: to set level, set everything. But I see why he
- 11:18Speaker 2: was the way. I mean, it really gave a look
- 11:20Speaker 2: into his upbringing, like and why the way he is,
- 11:24Speaker 2: Like he is flamboyant. His mother was super sam Boy flamboy.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Her name is Giselle, right, Jesu, jesus, can you do

- 11:57Speaker 1: Know what, It's inevitable.
- 11:59Speaker 3: It's like I go through my day, I'm always pissing
- 12:01Speaker 3: off a French person.
- 12:04Speaker 2: That The person that played Gizel was She was from

- 12:17Speaker 2: And I know that that was her first and only
- 12:19Speaker 2: appearance on Gilmore Girls out of all the seasons also, right,
- 12:25Speaker 2: but it was hilarious the way that they acted together
- 12:28Speaker 2: and how he just turned it on for his mama.
- 12:31Speaker 2: Do you ever turn it on when your mom was alive?
- 12:34Speaker 2: Did you have draft to turn it on for her

- 12:46Speaker 3: in like ninety four for a premiere.
- 12:48Speaker 1: I did a little big League movie and there's.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Yeah, that was good.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Cineramadon and she, you know, she was We were going
- 12:55Speaker 3: to circle talking to god Andy Seineman, and I think
- 13:00Speaker 3: Rob Reiner was there because he's part of Castle Rock,
- 13:03Speaker 3: and and I think it was Billy Crystal was there.
- 13:07Speaker 3: So my mom's talking to Billy Crystal and she had
- 13:12Speaker 3: just pretty much gotten off the flight, right right. She
- 13:15Speaker 3: was tired, and she had a couple of pops you know,
- 13:19Speaker 3: and and she was talking to Billy Crystal and she goes,
- 13:23Speaker 3: you know, I loved.
- 13:24Speaker 1: You and Sleepless and Seattle, I just loved you and
- 13:31Speaker 1: I like Albert or.
- 13:35Speaker 3: She goes, oh no, because then she said no, because
- 13:38Speaker 3: you're all so short, and she goes, I know all
- 13:41Speaker 3: the actors are very short, except for my son.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Of course. You know who was you know, Billy Crystal.
- 13:47Speaker 1: You should have seen him. He just like and he
- 13:50Speaker 1: just turned away. Oh I love that he smiled a
- 13:54Speaker 1: little bit.
- 13:56Speaker 2: But that's that's what Crystal probably loved her no more.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Actually, I mean she's she was the greatest. She was
- 14:02Speaker 1: the greatest. Have you ever been in a situation where
- 14:14Speaker 1: you've accidentally said something to someone's parents, you know, got
- 14:18Speaker 1: them in trouble or got you in trouble?
- 14:21Speaker 2: Oh yes, all the way. Yes, my whole teen's like
- 14:26Speaker 2: I was. I have a weird thing about myself as
- 14:31Speaker 2: a teenager where I couldn't keep the secret very well.
- 14:34Speaker 2: And so if we in high school, I was the eldest,
- 14:40Speaker 2: so I drove first, and so all the kids on
- 14:45Speaker 2: my block would pile into my car. And then we
- 14:48Speaker 2: used to have this thing. And I'm from Las Vegas,
- 14:50Speaker 2: so it was a lot of desert, and so we
- 14:52Speaker 2: would drive Sahara is a road. We drive to the
- 14:55Speaker 2: top of Sahara. It's also a hotel that is on
- 14:58Speaker 2: the road Sahara, and we drive to the top of
- 15:01Speaker 2: the hair and we'd light tires on fire and like
- 15:05Speaker 2: you know, little bonfires with other kids around and stuff.
- 15:08Speaker 2: And of course there was a little bit of I
- 15:11Speaker 2: guess other kids had zemas and such, and I would
- 15:17Speaker 2: like slip and I was having so much fun with
- 15:19Speaker 2: my friend's parents at their dinner and I would go,
- 15:22Speaker 2: oh yeah, Amy and I drove up to tap A
- 15:25Speaker 2: Sahara and we were like they were having these tires
- 15:29Speaker 2: on fire and like She's like sitting across from the table. No, no, don't,
- 15:33Speaker 2: don't talk anymore about that. They didn't even know I
- 15:35Speaker 2: left the block. So yes, but I just I have
- 15:41Speaker 2: a comfortable I feel comfortable with parents and kids or
- 15:46Speaker 2: just like spill. I guess it was a secret.
- 15:51Speaker 1: I guess she was in study group that night.
- 15:55Speaker 2: Thought kind of like Rory and Lane. At the end
- 15:57Speaker 2: of this episode, Wow, let's.
- 16:02Speaker 1: Let's dig into Rory and Deane. Okay, let's do this.
- 16:06Speaker 3: This was a major narrative running throughout this episode, Boy
- 16:10Speaker 3: that kid.
- 16:11Speaker 1: Have you ever been that guy?
- 16:13Speaker 2: Dean?
- 16:13Speaker 1: Yeah? Have you ever been that guy where it's just
- 16:15Speaker 1: like you just keep calling and like she doesn't like me,
- 16:18Speaker 1: and no, what's happening?
- 16:20Speaker 2: Huh?
- 16:21Speaker 1: You ever been that guy?
- 16:22Speaker 2: I get the message pretty quickly. I feel like I
- 16:25Speaker 2: could read people, and he is not reading her because
- 16:28Speaker 2: she is no longer interested. It is pretty obvious from
- 16:33Speaker 2: the beginning. I know he leaves her like fourteen messages
- 16:36Speaker 2: and like one day, Yeah, and did you sill have
- 16:41Speaker 2: an answering machine like that? M?
- 16:45Speaker 1: And yeah, we all did.
- 16:46Speaker 2: Did you save the message? I used to save messages
- 16:48Speaker 2: if I really liked him, I did too, Like before
- 16:52Speaker 2: my grandma passed, I'd go, I'm saving that message forever, right,
- 16:56Speaker 2: and then you have to throw away the machine.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Well you know, it's obvious that Rory's pulling away, Yeah,
- 17:04Speaker 1: because it's Jess. Because of Jess, he and he senses
- 17:08Speaker 1: that what did he do? Okay, what are you doing
- 17:11Speaker 1: in a situation like that? You take a step back.
- 17:14Speaker 2: Yeah, Laura, I gave really great advice to him. She
- 17:17Speaker 2: was a real friend to Dean, like a real friend.
- 17:21Speaker 2: He is gosh, I guess a little desperate looking in this.
- 17:27Speaker 2: So that is like a little bit of a you know,
- 17:30Speaker 2: a letdown and probably a turn off to Rory too.
- 17:35Speaker 2: But after talking with Laura, I like he like listens,
- 17:40Speaker 2: gets the message and that doesn't bugger so much.
- 17:44Speaker 1: Like so we think, yeah, the only move Dean could
- 17:48Speaker 1: make would be to hold up, to leave her alone,
- 17:51Speaker 1: hold up in a library and start reading all those
- 17:53Speaker 1: books exactly, oh my gosh, and then a month later
- 17:57Speaker 1: send clever little messages or.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Something, yes, and maybe start writing in the margins like
- 18:02Speaker 2: Jess does.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Like that writes really well in the margins.
- 18:14Speaker 2: Have you ever written in a margin. I've never written
- 18:17Speaker 2: in a margin.
- 18:17Speaker 1: Oh? Sure, I underline and write in the margin. Yeh.
- 18:20Speaker 2: I used to highlight or like crazy, but I destroy books.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Oh I like that because then if I read it,
- 18:27Speaker 2: when I go back and.
- 18:28Speaker 1: Reread them, that's what I read. The Oh the first
- 18:31Speaker 1: thing I read is when I go back. Yeah, read
- 18:33Speaker 1: this stuff.
- 18:34Speaker 2: And if you loan me in the book, I would
- 18:36Speaker 2: read your stuff even with more accuracy, like just like,
- 18:40Speaker 2: why does Scott have this highlighted? Why did you write
- 18:42Speaker 2: this in the margin.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I don't loan anything out. I don't loan books because
- 18:46Speaker 1: you never see again.
- 18:47Speaker 2: I see how you are.
- 18:48Speaker 1: You never seen it again. I've got people and I
- 18:52Speaker 1: still haven't. They never get it back. I'm not making
- 18:55Speaker 1: that mistake.
- 18:55Speaker 2: They're probably in someone's front yard in one of those
- 18:58Speaker 2: little boxes that you like do book sharing. If I
- 19:03Speaker 2: find it, I'm going to bring it back to you.
- 19:07Speaker 1: So you've never pulled a Dean and left like twenty messages?
- 19:10Speaker 2: No, I tell you I read people and get the message.
- 19:12Speaker 2: How about you? You no why because you get the
- 19:18Speaker 2: message and you read people.
- 19:21Speaker 1: I don't know. I've just always been really busy.
- 19:24Speaker 2: You're kind of a matter of fat kind of person too,
- 19:27Speaker 2: Like what does that mean? It means if someone's not
- 19:30Speaker 2: showing your interest, you're not going to show it back.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Oh I leave?
- 19:34Speaker 3: Yeah no, No, it's like whoa, Yeah, I don't get
- 19:38Speaker 3: all insecure. I just like think they're stupid. I lose
- 19:43Speaker 3: respect for him when I leave.
- 19:45Speaker 2: Okay, so now I see what you feel about Dean
- 19:48Speaker 2: in this episode. Yes, you are correct. The relationship is fading.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's been a little lone hitch.
- 20:04Speaker 3: She just wants it to go back to normal, which
- 20:06Speaker 3: never will, which means she just wants to meet him
- 20:08Speaker 3: again and not know who he is.
- 20:11Speaker 1: And he was so filled with mystery and cool.
- 20:15Speaker 2: Yes, like Jess says, now, right, and that's exactly what
- 20:19Speaker 2: her mom had in the beginning, right, like why she
- 20:23Speaker 2: got pregnant, Why Laurla got pregnant, same kind of thing.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Guy on the motorcycle jumping out the window.
- 20:29Speaker 3: See you later, Dean Deane, He ain't no James Dean,
- 20:36Speaker 3: all right, Chilton business fair, all right. So the Headmaster
- 20:40Speaker 3: Charlton names the winner. Oh thus this stupid locker alarm
- 20:46Speaker 3: that doesn't even work, and Richard.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Is livid as he should be.
- 20:52Speaker 1: Right you think, how did he handle that?
- 20:55Speaker 2: He handled it like any normal person would who had
- 20:59Speaker 2: a better idea? Right, he went right to him, And
- 21:03Speaker 2: I guess it's the decision of one We found out
- 21:05Speaker 2: it wasn't a committee. There was one person's like idea.
- 21:10Speaker 3: Do you sense a personal vendetta against Richard by Headmaster Charleston.
- 21:14Speaker 3: Do you think there's something personal there? Because remember remember
- 21:19Speaker 3: when they when when Headmster Charleston approached Richard and said.
- 21:24Speaker 1: Ah, here you retired. We were so shocked that you retired,
- 21:27Speaker 1: and good to see you. It's been so long, you're
- 21:29Speaker 1: not at the club anymore. You're not at the country
- 21:31Speaker 1: club anymore. It's as well, I've been busy the dead.
- 21:33Speaker 3: And then when Charleston ends the conversation, it says, you know,
- 21:37Speaker 3: I'll let's you know, I'll call Maggie, we'll set up
- 21:41Speaker 3: at dinner.
- 21:42Speaker 1: We'd love to see you. And then he walks away.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Richard turns his head and says, you do that to himself, So.
- 21:49Speaker 2: It sort of, yes, he speaks of some well, it's
- 21:54Speaker 2: because he's not in the working world anything.
- 21:57Speaker 3: But I know what I read from that was that
- 21:59Speaker 3: there's some history between these two when it ain't good.
- 22:02Speaker 1: So I'm kind of wondering what it is.
- 22:04Speaker 2: Let's make it up. I think it's money.
- 22:07Speaker 3: I think Richard has a lot of money, and there's
- 22:09Speaker 3: just there's your spinoff. Yep, Richard and Head and mister
- 22:12Speaker 3: Charleston and then me and Sean Gunn.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Yes, definitely.
- 22:19Speaker 3: By the way, Raleigh Galaxy Con, Yeah, tell me, two
- 22:23Speaker 3: thousand people showed up to our panel was standing room only.
- 22:27Speaker 2: Oh, holy heck, that's great.
- 22:29Speaker 3: We're like, we're like the you know, we're like the
- 22:32Speaker 3: Martin and Lewis of the Concertcuit.
- 22:34Speaker 2: I bet you're like a really great talker, and he
- 22:36Speaker 2: just says crazy stuff like I want to be in
- 22:40Speaker 2: your next one.
- 22:41Speaker 3: He's hysterically funny, he's really smart. We play off each
- 22:45Speaker 3: other really well. We enjoy each other's company and that
- 22:49Speaker 3: and that's really all it is.
- 22:51Speaker 1: That's all it. Yeah, yeah, you too are fun together
- 22:54Speaker 1: and and I think we both make pretty insightful comments
- 22:58Speaker 1: about the show and the questions that are being asked
- 23:02Speaker 1: of us. But it was we just have these raucous
- 23:05Speaker 1: panels at these at these contint they're so much fun.
- 23:10Speaker 2: How do you guys kick it off?
- 23:11Speaker 3: Just a moderator goes out there and says you're ready,
- 23:14Speaker 3: and we bring them out and they bring us out.
- 23:17Speaker 2: They show clips of you guys first, they play the.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Music or whatever. And it's not a lot of clubs,
- 23:23Speaker 1: but man, that's fun.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Okay, when's your next one? And where are you going?
- 23:26Speaker 2: And how do we get to see that? Get one together?
- 23:30Speaker 1: September's big. September is big.

- 23:40Speaker 3: September five or seven, anyway, and then and then I'm
- 23:45Speaker 3: in New Milford, Connecticut the next weekend, and then I'm
- 23:47Speaker 3: in Brighton, Michigan the next weekend. It's September's crazy.
- 23:51Speaker 2: You're busy. Yeah, oh, speaking of like fun events, you know.
- 23:55Speaker 2: In the episode, also, Suki gets so excited that her
- 23:59Speaker 2: wedding imitations were coming. Did you see that part? Do
- 24:02Speaker 2: you remember her?
- 24:03Speaker 1: I love everything Sukie does.
- 24:04Speaker 2: I love the entire Oh my gosh.
- 24:06Speaker 1: I mean I could just rewind it and watch it again.
- 24:08Speaker 2: I did that too, Yeah, because I rewatched it just
- 24:11Speaker 2: to get ready for this, And I had to rewind
- 24:14Speaker 2: that like twice because I just laughed so hard because
- 24:18Speaker 2: I feel like some of it is just improv a
- 24:20Speaker 2: little bit. No.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Oh none, none, none, James James.
- 24:25Speaker 1: But I know, I know, But I know you've met
- 24:28Speaker 1: Amy Sherman Palladino. I know, but you know how precise
- 24:32Speaker 1: she is. Oh, it's exacting.
- 24:36Speaker 2: You are true, you are that is the truth.
- 24:38Speaker 1: Oh, there's no improv.
- 24:39Speaker 2: It was fantastic, I mean, and she got stressed because
- 24:42Speaker 2: there was a typo on it. It was Susie Saint
- 24:45Speaker 2: James instead of Sukie.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Susie.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Who's Susie.
- 24:51Speaker 1: I had a mouthful of cookies. When she said that,
- 24:53Speaker 1: I spit him out, and I like literally spit him
- 24:56Speaker 1: out my son, like, Dad, what did you just do?
- 24:58Speaker 2: Oh my gosh? And then lore Life sets up the
- 25:01Speaker 2: whole customer service like rep and like that is one
- 25:05Speaker 2: of the things that I am friendly to lots and
- 25:09Speaker 2: lots of people, like I just love people. But sometimes
- 25:12Speaker 2: if I have bad customer service, like if the person
- 25:15Speaker 2: on the other end gets on me, then I pull
- 25:18Speaker 2: a suki like she went listic, and I won't go ballistic,
- 25:24Speaker 2: but people go, wow, you see mad.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's a big motor you got there, buddy.
- 25:32Speaker 1: There's no question about it in my mind.
- 25:34Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, I thought that was a cute moment.
- 25:37Speaker 1: Did you think Richard's reaction was childish? I mean the
- 25:41Speaker 1: way you just went off on Charleston?
- 25:44Speaker 2: Yes and no, of course, yeah, a little bit, But
- 25:47Speaker 2: I mean it was they had passionate about their project.
- 26:00Speaker 1: Okay, here's here's the burning question that I have.
- 26:03Speaker 3: Okay, why was in Paris up there yelling with them?
- 26:07Speaker 3: She's a complete nut job. Yes, that's her opportunity to
- 26:11Speaker 3: go up there and just sort of act out all
- 26:13Speaker 3: over the place.
- 26:14Speaker 1: Why didn't Why didn't she gang up on with Richard.
- 26:17Speaker 2: I don't know. Like Lorelei said, he grows another six
- 26:21Speaker 2: feet tall when he's like like making a point and
- 26:25Speaker 2: like angry or whatever. And I felt like that's what
- 26:28Speaker 2: he did. And Paris saw it and him and he
- 26:31Speaker 2: handed and he handled it.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Uh huh.
- 26:34Speaker 2: But that stupid locker thing, Yeah, that's work.
- 26:38Speaker 1: Look, Friday night dinner.
- 26:40Speaker 2: I love Friday and night dinners.
- 26:42Speaker 1: You know.
- 26:42Speaker 3: He finally comes out of the study, right, yes, all
- 26:45Speaker 3: in a jump. He's been thinking. No, he's been thinking
- 26:48Speaker 3: all afternoon, right, and he's feeling good. He sits down.
- 26:53Speaker 3: They have this dinner and you know, it's like he
- 26:57Speaker 3: wants to consult, he wants to teach, he wants to
- 26:59Speaker 3: take on partner setting up. You know, here comes Jason Styles.
- 27:04Speaker 3: Here we go, you know, uh, all right, But after
- 27:09Speaker 3: dinner in the car ride at home, Laurel Rory tells
- 27:13Speaker 3: Laurla she actually misses Dean, the old Dean, Yes, not
- 27:17Speaker 3: the pathetic you know this one whiny wailing Yeah, it
- 27:21Speaker 3: secure Dean, but.
- 27:22Speaker 2: The old guy. I think riyals them. She has a
- 27:27Speaker 2: soft spot form, But Laurela has a softer spot form.
- 27:30Speaker 1: In this episode, what's a nice kid.
- 27:33Speaker 2: He is nice. And that hair, Geez, Louise, that.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Hair, Now that's the guy with good hair that ain't

- 27:46Speaker 2: hair is good. Who are you talking about with like,
- 27:49Speaker 2: maybe not great? Are you talking about meat?
- 27:51Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? You get the best hair? I mean,
- 27:53Speaker 1: your hair is the best. I of course, I mean
- 27:57Speaker 1: I'm not talking about me.
- 28:00Speaker 2: For sure, No, but you know what I mean, I
- 28:02Speaker 2: do know what you mean?
- 28:03Speaker 3: Really great here and then yeah, that that was quite
- 28:07Speaker 3: a closing scene.
- 28:09Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean wow.
- 28:12Speaker 2: On the steps there right at laura Ies home. Oh

- 28:36Speaker 2: He was, Yeah, he wasn't in the episode. I don't
- 28:39Speaker 2: think he made one appearance in wonder.
- 28:41Speaker 1: He probably didn't get paid for that episode, even though
- 28:43Speaker 1: it's kind of now.
- 28:44Speaker 2: Layne made an appearance in the episode. Mm hmmm, and
- 28:48Speaker 2: her stuff is also funy, funny, funny, funny. This comic
- 28:53Speaker 2: relief that they intertwined within the whole episode is just
- 28:56Speaker 2: so fun. With her taking that career aptitude test where
- 29:00Speaker 2: she finds out after taking the test four times that
- 29:03Speaker 2: she's most suited for sales job and that is totally
- 29:08Speaker 2: not her wish. Right now, I want to talk a little.

- 31:45Speaker 2: the Friends Fountain. Friends is a Warner Brothers TV series two,
- 31:49Speaker 2: and so Miss Patty's was a building with no air conditioning.
