  Speaker 1: Episode. Speaking of news and notes, let's talk about Hallmark specifically,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: some ratings of this weekend's movies. All right, as of yesterday,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: our recording of the Wedding Veil, these ratings were not out,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: but they are out, so we have ratings for both
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: The Wedding Veil Expectations as well as Family History Mysteries,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: and I'm going to tell you one of these movies
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: did better than the other, a lot better than the other.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: And before we talk numbers, I just want to say
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I'm honestly shocked by the disparity between these two numbers.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Me too, totally.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: So first up, let's talk the Wedding Veil Expectations. That
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: we did review that movie yesterday, but if you haven't
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: listened to that episode, give and listen. It's their waiting
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: for you. It came in at number fifteen in cable
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: news programming, with a whopping two point four eight for
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Million Live and Same debuters. A lot of people were
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: excited to see this one. It sounds like, yeah, it
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: did not do as well as last year's The Wedding
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Veil debut, which debuted at three point three nine viewers.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: It in fact, did not do as well as any
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: of the Wedding Veil original series.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Dabus oh Wow.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: According to show Buzz Daily, so all three beat out,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: but still a solid showing. It still puts it in
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the top ten if you were to rank it against
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. It would still make the twenty twenty
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: two top ten. I don't know what I'm trying to say.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what you're trying to say. Okay, please.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Lacy Shavert is still the Queen of Palmark really truly,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: That's what it comes down to. People like to watch
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: her movies done period.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Now today's movie, Family History Buried Past did not do
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: quite as well. It came in at number sixty eight,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: but with a solid one million, six thousand viewers. I'm curious.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know how movies and mysteries stack up against
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: standard hall Mark Channel movies. Yeah, and then Sunday movies
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: stacking up against Saturday movies. And then we're also in
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: like we're leading into football playoff season, and yeah, that's
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: stealing a big share of cable TV watchers at this point.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm. All in all, I was surprised by that discrepancy,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: but still think it was a solid showing. I mean,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the numbers don't lie, right. A million people watched it,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, Yeah, I didn't watch
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: it live, so but I still watched it. She would
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: move on to our synopsis. We should all right, family
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: history mysteries, Buried Secrets, genealogist Sophie McLaren is an expert
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: at bringing families together.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: When her close friends Jonathan, what, When her close friends
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Jonathan urges that doesn't make nice what it's a misplaced
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: s Yes, when her close friend urgently needs to find
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: a bone marrow donor, the case becomes personal. I have
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: a question, Yeah, just based on the synopsis, how do
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: we know that Sophie McLaren is an expert at bringing
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: families together? Like we never established that, Like they didn't
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: say that right at the beginning of this movie.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Yes they did, and they did that because they show
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: her wrapping up a previous geology case. Yes, those women together,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: That's that always throws me off because that seems like
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: an end of the movie at the beginning of the movie,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Yeah, I had forgotten that
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: little like thirty second opener.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: But you know the love letter don't have anything to
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: do with family, Well I guess it does. But all right,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: never mind my opinion about this use of family.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, let's do some news and notes about family
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: history mysteries. Okay, gonna throw me every time listen, listen.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you right now, one of my wish
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: fors is I hate this title of this movie because
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: it is straight. It reminds me of a Scooby Doo episode. Oh,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: every time I hear Family History Mysteries, I want to
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: hear like I hear like Scooby Doo in the background.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know. They could have just called it like
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: family History Buried Secrets or Family Mysteries Buried. Just it's
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: too illiterate. I don't like it here. I just have
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: to I just have to say it.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to assume that the writer Amber Benson
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: did not name this movie. She has seventy four acting
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: credits in addition to ten writing credits, which include the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: morning show Mysteries, so she is no stranger to writing
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: mystery series on the Hallmark Movies Miss what the fuck
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: is Hallmark Movies and Mysteries channel?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Is that all you have to say about Amber Benson?
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: You don't know who Amber Vinson is.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you why. Hold on, let me
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: tell you why. Okay these notes were taken before the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: IMDb page went up. Oh okay, I was not clicking
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: through to her IMD. You know what I'm saying. I
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: did research elsewhere, So tell me what else I should
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: know about Amber Benson. Well, first, let's clear if I
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: for the listening audience, we do pull a lot of
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: information from IMDb, and for this particular movie was not
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: updated until today, the day of recording, which is Tuesday.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: So we were like trying to search the internet in
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the dark web looking for information on this day movie.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: And even as of today, the IMDb is very sparse.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: It's a skeleton crew over there.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: There's no they lost four people in the movie.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Turn and puts them to work. These people need credit
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: for their work seriously.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Okay, So Amber Benson. Young adults of the nineties like
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: myself know her as Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: She was that didn't even occur to me.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Did you watch that series?
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Na? I've seen like an episode or two, But.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I was a girl like you said. She also wrote
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: morning show Mysteries that featured Holly Robinson Pete and a
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: ton of other like thriller crime true crime movies, including
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: and Rules A Murder to Remember hmmm, and I can't
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: remember it off the top of my head right now.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: It's She wrote the teleplay for the true crime story
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: of the Olympian who he was a para Olympian and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: he murdered his girlfriend. Do you know what I'm talking about? Oh,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: I'm going to leave a link to it in our
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: show notes. I know somebody's screaming at the radio right now,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: at the radio, you know, on their morning walk. I
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Oscar Pistorias. Yes, that's him, that's him. It's a little
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: true crime because Anne Rule, if I'm remembering correctly, is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: a true crime writer. Yeah, like the queen of true crime. Yeah, yeah,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: all right. So we just went on a wild ride
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: down a rabbit hole of an and Rule book that
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I remember reading as a probably a child, let's be honest.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: It was originally published in nineteen ninety two. It's called
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: If You Really Loved Me, and it is the true
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: tale of a young girl who was convinced to kill
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: her mother by her father. So, if you liked true crime,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: we do believe this one took place very near where
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: we both grew up. That's wild. I'd never heard of
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: that story. Add it to your twenty twenty three reading list.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that to disturbing for even us.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Well, yes, kind of a wimp these days.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Oh right. This movie was directed by Jonathan Wright, who
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: also recently directed The Royal Nanny, Jolly Good Christmas, and
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: a whole bunch of other Hallmark movies.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's also directed The Crossword Mystery, so he is
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: not new to Hallmark movies and mysteries mysteries either.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: There's too many repeating words here.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I can't handle it. We've talked about Janielle Harrish quite
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: a bit on this podcast, but let's just let it
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: be known. She I think most famously starred in Pretty
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Little Liars. She was also in a series that I
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: loved to all the boys I have loved before. It
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: was another book recommendation for you if you're looking for one.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: And of course she was in Kytie Creek Christmas and
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Right in front of Me, written by friend of the show,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Julie Sherman.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Woolf that one time we had Julie Sherman Wolf on
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: our podcast. She will always be a friend of the show.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: That's what happens.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Janelle also participated in season nineteen of Dancing with the Stars.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Did she She came in third place with her partner
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: val Yes, you love Dancing with the Stars. I mean,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I don't think I watched that season, but I do
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: remember her dancing like her first dance, and she did
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: like a like a you know when you say and
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: you put your finger up to your mouth. Oh yeah,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: And I remember that because that was very like reminiscent
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: of Pretty Little Liars. I think she either did it
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: there or it was in the opening sequence or whatever. Anyway,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: that's all burned into your memory. Yes, it is core
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: memory for me. For some reason, can't remember what classes
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: my daughter takes, but I remember that.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: So look, Neill, we have an apology made her to
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: give because Wendy looked up his Wikipedia. We've been called I.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I've been calling him Neil Matter for the two and
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a half years we've been doing this podcast.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't even know is it Neil or Nil?
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Oh Lord, I apologize because I honestly it's one of
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: my pet peeves. When people say like, oh, it's too
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: hard to say, like I can't, Oh, it's it's it's
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: somebody's name. I feel like we should take the bare
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: minimum and learn how to say people's names, which doesn't
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: mean I'm perfect at it, but if I have been unintentionally,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: is it Nile?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: I think it is, but I don't know for sure,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: and you know me, I'm doubly mad at myself. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: put your name's left and right on this podcast, so
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I think it is nil Mater.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, okay, well, two apologies from me to you.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: I would like it if you know for certain how
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: to pronounce this man's name. Please email us Megan and
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Wendy at gmail dot com, or jump into our Facebook
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: group and.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Send us a voice memo.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: A voice memo please, that would be amazing.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: He had fifty acting credits, including a Christmas Together with
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: You rip in Time and When I Think of Christmas.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: That was from twenty twenty two.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: It was a movie I did not watch.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Did you watch it by chance? No? That didn't make
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: the list for me this year. Yeah.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: I don't think it was well received from what I read.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: That's my understanding of that movie as well. A smiler alert.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: This movie has changed my opinion.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to agree
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: with you there. Let me finish here. He was in
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Never Kiss a Man in a Christmas Sweater from twenty twenty.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: It was one of the first movies that we watched
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: and reviewed. I hated it. I especially did not enjoy
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: him or his character. I will say not anything personal
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: against the actor. So in every movie I've seen since then,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I'm always like he's in it. You know. However, I
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: would like to say that has also changed for me.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Yes, one thousand percent. I rescinded my previous thoughts me too.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, I have a story about him.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I did a little digging last night. He was in.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: A horrible, horrific accident at twenty five years old, and
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I guess he was working part time on oil rigs
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: at the time, like trying to be an actor, but
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: also working on oil rigs, you know, to pay the
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: bills whatever. He was crushed inside of the cab of
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: a drilling rig and apparently it weighed seventeen tons and
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: he was terribly hurt, and I guess doctors were able
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: to save his leg. They were going to amputate it,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: they were able to save it. And it took him
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: months to learn how to walk again. Oh my gosh, crazy, right,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: And then he went, he said the article I read
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: said he went back to work on the oil rigs.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, he went back.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: To work, and either the day he returned or the
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: next day, somebody got hurt and he said, I'm out
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: of here.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: They're out of here. Yeah crazy. I know there's a
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: workman's comp claim. If there ever was one, I'm certain Well,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: speaking of backstories of these actors, I really wanted to
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: know who played Clark in this movie, and we're gonna
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about him later. But it's
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: not on the IMDb page. I did some digging. I
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: tried to look at the credits it was. I did
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: not have any luck. So I went to the Facebook group,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: and the Facebook group delivered with an actor named Bruce Horrak,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: who plays Clark, plays the boy's father in this movie.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: But here's what I love. And if you've ever listened
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: to an episode, you know that we like when Hallmark
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: hires actors with perhaps a physical limitation that they are
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: portraying to portray that role. And Bruce Horrack lost over
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: ninety percent of his eyesight to a childhood cancer. Now
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not celebrating that he lost his eyesight, but I'm
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: celebrating that an actor who has lost their eyesight is
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: playing a character who has lost their eye sight.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so cool.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: So more about Bruce coming shortly.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Morgan David Jones. He plays the brother what is his name?
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Jonathan Jonathan? Oh my gosh, he plays Jonathan. He has
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: forty six acting credit several holiday movies from twenty twenty two,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: not on Homework Channel. His resume also includes a feature
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: film called Molly's Game from twenty seventeen. And that is
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: a really good movie. If you haven't seen.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: It, I have not seen it is usual.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: No, it's not scary at all.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: It's about like gambling. It's so good.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: It's not for your it's not family friendly movie night watching,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: but it's if you. It's based on a book too.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: It's really good. Definitely watch it. I've written it down.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Hey, did you see who the executive producer of this
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: movie was?
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Well, I know that Nikki Diloche was one of the
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: executive producers of this movie. That's who I was gonna say.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: She was one. Yeah, they have kind of a deep
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: executive producing list on this movie. Produce the way Mickey.

  Speaker 2: And I watched I watch a lot of these movies
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: on my phone, so everything's like very small. But I
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: watched this particular movie in our extra bedroom. We had
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: this huge, way too huge of a TV for that
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: space for us.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: It's so big. Yeah, totally.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: My daughter like gets dizzy when she's watching TV in there,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: so she doesn't. Anyway, I was watching it on that
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: TV and I was like, wow, look at that smile,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Like it was just right there in my face.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Why don't you have swapped isn't that bigger than your
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: downstairs TV. Yeah, the quality isn't as nice though. See. Okay,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: so I want to briefly explain my DNA comment simply
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: because it doesn't have a better spot in our lineup. Okay. Now,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: one of the ways they use DNA in this movie
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: is they're trying to find their father and trying to
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: potentially find I assume other family members who can lead
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: them to their father. My husband has done twenty three
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and me, where you swap you cheeksnded in and they
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: send you back all this information about yourself and your
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: family members. But in this case, they had the DNA
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: processed by their friendly lab technician and then they just
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: sent it out to all of these d databases. Yes,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: thank you, And I thought, can you just do that?
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Can you be like, here's the DNA information, feed it
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: into your system. Now, keep in mind, the way this
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: works is completely beyond me. But I did find myself
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: fixating on that particular part of the movie, and thus
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: that was my first impression.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Well, I wonder if it's like they're like, let's just
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: like skim over this DNA part because people don't really
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: want to understand how it works. You know, you get
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: too like in the weeds if they're trying to explain it,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: and so yeah, maybe they're just like, Okay, now we're
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: past it.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: I like that.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Well. I also, that's funny you mentioned the databases because
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I was like, are there database You know, I'm kind
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: of an Internet stalker or have been at one point,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, are there databases out there that you
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: can just like type this information in and like look
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: for people beyond Google?
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Which information specifically are you?
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know. She was typing in like brown hair,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: hazel eyes, Boston, you know.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, I.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Don't know. Do like I know, she's not a detective,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: but she's a genealogist like some forensic genealogists. So does
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: she have access to like are there some super secret
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: databases out there with information about everybody?
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Or is she just using ancestry dot com?
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. Inquiring minds want to know. I
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: liked a lot a lot about this movie up Top.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I thought it had a compelling but an easy to
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: follow plot.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: I agree, I really enjoyed the story and what I
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: liked about it in particular, even though I am a
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: true crime fan. This wasn't about a murder. This was
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: about a missing person and we were looking for this person.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: And I was like, this is fantastic. Is this how
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: the next movies are going to be too?
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Like mmmm hmm, you know, I don't know. Yeah, speaking
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: of true crime, I thought the introg of the movie
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: it was brief, but it had a little bit more
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: of a TV show series style intro Megan, and I
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: was like, this is a series that I would absolutely
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: binge watch me too.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: It gave me real Veronica Mars vibes.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, did you watch that?
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Did you watch Veronica Mars?
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: I've seen the first season. Oh my god, I'm.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Like referencing all these movies. So it's like you reference
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: books to me and I referenced TV shows to you
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: that we've both never read or seen. Anyway, Uh yeah,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: I agree.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I thought I thought.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: I thought it was well done that way, like it
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: gave me like a TV Yeah, yeah, very much, very much.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: I want to say. I thought there was great casting
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: of the brothers of Morgan David Jones and Nio Mater.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: I thought they could definitely look like real siblings, so
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: totally agree. Applaud them for matching those two up.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I like Winston and esme together. Although Winston, you're super hot, dude,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: What are you so nervous about right for coffee? Like
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: she's clearly into you, just like put those shoulders back
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: and ask her out.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Man, Hey, did you notice how many donuts were in
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: this movie?
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: It's so funny because I was sitting here making my
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: notes and I thought, I want to say something with
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: the donuts, but I don't have anything other to say
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: other than lots of donuts.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: There were lots of donuts. And Sunday night, I watched
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: this after dinner and I was like, damn, I could
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: really go for one of those the donuts right now.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, man.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: At one point there, the name of the place was
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: on the box, but I couldn't see even on my
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: big as TV, I couldn't see what it was. I
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: did want to look it up to see, like, where
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: is this real donut place from? I thought Janelle and
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: niall had really great chemistry. I thought they were friendly
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: and flirty. They truly cared about each other. It was
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: a good pairing.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Thousand percent believe them as high school friends who like
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: transitioned into adult friendship.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: And what the app sense of I like you, I
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: hate you, now we love each other. It was so
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: freaking refreshing.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: And here's what I love about this movie is that
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: their story is just getting started. Right. The movie ends
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: on them like it's not a will they or won't they?
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Because we know that looks like they're gonna see where
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: this goes well.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: And then I was like, Oh, he's leaving his you know,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: big city job and coming back, but for very valid
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: reasons because his brother's going to be going through treatment
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: and like you know, getting.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Better from reconnecting with his father.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there's a lot there to dig into. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Finally,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: for me, there was this one conversation between the brothers,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Jackson and Jonathan, and it was about Jackson. Sorry, it
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: was about Jackson crashing and burning with Sophia, Sophia Sophie,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: and it was just sweet and light. I thought it
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: was very funny and very real, and I was like,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: how nice to have like a sibling relationship like that
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: where you can like talk about your love life.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: It's very nice. You ready for wishes?
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: I am first one. I already mentioned I hated the
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: title of this movie, but that's you know whatever for me,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: the movie did get a little bit confusing in the middle,
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: meaning hear me out. There are a lot of character names,
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: and we didn't know who was who. They were talking
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: about people and we never saw their faces, so we
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: don't you know what I mean, Like they're talking about
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Joe Schmoe here and Jane Doe here, and I'm like,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I don't who are those people? So it's hard to
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: keep track of all these people when they're not an
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: actual character on the screen.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, there wasn't a face to put to those names.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I agree with you. That is the one place where
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: my brain went, Oh, I really wanted to see them.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I wish there was a way they could have. Obviously
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: they couldn't because they didn't whatever. But yes, I agree
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: with you. I think this movie accomplished what it set
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: out to do in that it made me want more
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: from this crew. I want Family History Mysteries the series.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I will totally be the person who tunes in for them,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: who's excited for new installments more. I obviously we're gonna
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: get Sophie and her mom in our next movie. Give
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: me more.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Agree, I want to talk about something and I don't
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: want to be blamed for being an agist here. Okay, So,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: and maybe this has to do about casting. I don't
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: But when Sophie and Jackson find Clark's former best friend,
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: he's the guy working on the airplane. The man who
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: they hired to play this role looks to be in
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: similar age to Nile Mater, right, yeah, Jackson and Jonathan Yes.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, it really like threw my brain for
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: a loop because I'm like, aren't they looking for a
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: dad who may be in similar age to their mom?
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: But this is the best friend who clearly looks a
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: lot younger.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: So it.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Really messed with my brain a little bit. So I
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: don't know. I just don't want to be blamed for
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: being agist here. I just think they should have hired
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: somebody who maybe was closer in age, who would be
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: a actual, realistic best friend of this older man who's
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: supposed to be their dad.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Well, and I think there's more to be said there,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: because I don't want to say it, no, but I think, look,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: it's a numbers game. Bruce Horrak plays the boy's father.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: He plays Clark. That actor is forty eight years old. Yeah, okay.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Sherry Miller plays Jackson and Jonathan's mother. That actress is
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: sixty seven years old. There is a nineteen year age
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: gap between the actors, which is not possible, Like people,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, right, not impossible.
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: You mean that's what I think.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: I said, Yes, it's not impossible. But how old are
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: these boys? They've got to be what twenty five thirty?
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: It's not in the movie.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, no way, because that guy's aid doctor. He's got
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: to at least be in his like mid thirties.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's say at a minimum they're thirty years old.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: If Clark is playing his actual age, that would make
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: him eighteen years old when the boys were born. Now,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: as far as I recall, there was no issue. I
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: know he wasn't ready to be a father. He was
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: nervous about being a father. But from my understanding, the
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: only backstory that was brought up that might have contributed
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: to that was the fact that he didn't have a
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: great example in his own parents, not that he's so
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: young and is not ready to do this. So I
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: don't think it's ages to point out the fact that
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: these actors are nineteen years apart. However, here's the next question.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: We're just applauding them for using a visually impaired actor
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: to play a visually impaired role. Is there need to
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: be some sort of given take there? They're like, well,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: we could hire hire a visually impaired actor, or we
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: could hire one who's more believable in terms of his age.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. That's an interesting thought.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And I guess if I had to pick, I would
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: pick the visually impaired actor if I yeah, in terms
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: of those things. But it is no. Yeah, And by
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: the way, Sherry mal is a beautiful maman. I don't
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: think we're being agist. Okay, are legitimately nineteen years apart.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Don't send us your emails. Guys. I don't think we've
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: done anything wrong here. I'm treading lightly these days. Can
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: you tell money?
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Okay, here's something else I wish for? Okay, how terrible
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: is the step dad? I guess, the man who raised
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: these boys? I mean, you know that the bio dad
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: is alive, and you don't say anything, and fine, Like,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I understand you don't want the return of Clark to
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: upset your like new marriage and new family.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: But but then the.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Boy that you've raised his entire life, it needs a
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: bone marrow transplant, and you don't say a word about
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: the dad being alive.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Still. Yes, So in this movie I found there to
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: be a lot of threads that maybe think, huh, do
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I believe that could have happened? And I'll talk about
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Clark's thread in a minute, But George, do I believe
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: that Clark could have shown up and George could have
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: sent him away because he was insecure? Yes? Do I
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: believe that George, who loves these children like his own
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: biological sons, they are his sons, has a child who
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: needs a bone marrow transplant or he's going to not
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: live any longer, still keeps quiet, Still doesn't go to
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Sophie at that point, like still makes her figure it out.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: M h, I don't know, George, I don't know.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: It's not a good look, dude, Yeah, George. And at
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: one point they show him like coming back to the
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: house to talk to the mom, and I was like,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: did she kick him out because like he came to
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: the front door. Uh huh, uh huh, that's weird.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: But then they like, you know, all all is well
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: and forgotten. At the end, it's like, I'm sorry, Dorothy,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: get you bet?
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: Was that her name for Dorothy, I.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Think, so you better be more than sorry, dude.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, any more wishes One final small one. I did
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: not need the c S story of the love letter mystery.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: I didn't think it was.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: Necessary in this movie because you got like your A story,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: your a plot, right, and then to me, the B
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: plot is like Sophie wondering about who her birth parents are. Yes,
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: you know, she was like struggling with that a little bit,
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: with like her dad and all that whatever. So I
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: just like we didn't need this like side storyline of
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: like the love letters.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think personally there was something when they were
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: returning the love letters that makes so uh.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, she figures out like the School of Blind. Yeah, okay, okay, fine, fine, fine,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: I guess they needed that like through lying there. All right,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: that's fair. Yeah?
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Are you ready for did you see that? Yes?
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: I am uh oh, it's not uh oh. They're mostly
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: from the complaint corner. But let me start with the
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: first one. And I talked to you about it yesterday.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: It's the poster for this movie. I don't understand like
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: they have like the DNA.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: It looks like it's two.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: It looks like Terminator. You know, remember the Terminator poster,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: where like the half side of his face was like
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: terminator and the other side was a man. Am I
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: making this up?
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I know, I know what you're talking about.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: It reminds me of that a little bit, and you can.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: And I was like, why this one side of her
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: face look totally different than the other. But then when
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: we looked at it closer yesterday, You're like, isn't that
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: a DNA strand in her eye?
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: So I think you'll go up to that. Oh do tell.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: So you showed me this picture and it is a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: still photo and it's just kind of that purple tinged
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: photo close up of Janelle Parish's beautiful face. Later that day,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: I was following the hashtag on Twitter looking at what
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: people were saying, and I saw that same image but
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: in a short video. And in the short video it's
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: maybe three seconds, text slides in across her face and
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: it says it's in her DNA. Think it's in her
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: DNA to be this person, I guess. And so I
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: think the double helix we see in her eye ties
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: into that. Now, why her eyes are too different color?
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know, because I don't think Janelle Parrish's eyes
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: are actually two different color, and couldn't they made the
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: helix the same color as her other eye. I don't
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: understand that, but I do believe we've closed the loop
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: on it being the DNA double helix in her eyeball, Okay,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I have one mild Did you see that? And that
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: is at some point in the movie, they're talking about
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: some of their leads and they flash on a serial
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: killer style wall with red threads attached, yes things, And
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I was like, is this what are those red threads
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: attaching in this case?
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: How are these people? What's going on here? Did we
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, this will really look like we've got
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: a real investigation going on.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's why it gives me like PI vibes.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, but it's not it's not unlike that.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I mean I kind of wish like we saw a
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: big version of that, because I'm telling you, I was like,
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: who are these people they are talking about? And how
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: are they connected so well?
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: And that was what I was thinking when I stumbled
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: over my words earlier, and I was saying, I wish
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: we could have seen seen a visual when they were
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: discussing those people. What I was imagining is like a
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: b roll running behind the audio of them talking about
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: these people. That shows, you know, the research and how
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: this person may have been connected. But they didn't know
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: who these people were. They didn't have phone of them
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: as far as we knew. I don't know, like show
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: them pinning a photo on that wall as you're talking
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: about this person to your dad, you know what I mean.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we've seen enough CSI and n CIS and whatever else,
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: so see that, like that is possible, So give us,
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: give us that. Yeah, yeah, Hey, Sophie's character had the
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: worst shoes in this movie.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: I did not notice at all. At one point she
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: had these like terrible clunky boots on. I was like,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: that looks awful.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Not style wise, but that looks awful to be like
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: trapes in around the town and these big clunky boots
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: and then have these other like I don't know, saddle shoot,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: look at shoes on.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: It's just not great. Yikes, woman on Woman Crime.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry to who ever dressed her.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: It's not a personal attack wardrobe. I like my shoes.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: It was clearly cold when they were cold and Ottawa,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: She's like, let me have my boots.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: People, I don't they were Okay, I will send you
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: a picture of these boots.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: They were just like they looked like the heel was like.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: This big cork. I don't I don't know.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: This is just a question you find yourself wondering if
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: this was a realistic storyline, Like and I'm gonna give
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: you a spoiler alert. I came around to believing it,
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: but I find myself thinking like, Okay, he faked his
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: death right like why would somebody do that? Mm hmmm
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: why would they? And I you know, he was very
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: clearly did not feel confident in his ability to be
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: a father. He didn't feel like he had the tools,
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: and he felt like they were better off. But that's
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: a that's a big choice.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why didn't he just bounce be like peace, I'm
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: not ready for see you later instead of like tormenting
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: your family to think like I've heard that you're dead?
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Is yeah, kind of a jerk move. Well, I'm telling you,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: I put a lot of thought into this, And so
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: is the thought, well will it hurt them more if
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: I actively leave? Or he already thinks he's not good
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: enough for them? So is he gonna think about that?
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: They're going to be that hurt if he's gone. He
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: clearly felt like they were better off without him.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute, did he actually do we have clarification
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: on the fact that he actually faked his death or
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: was he actually trying to commit suicide.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think he was trying to commit suicide. I
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: think he was injured. I forget the story about he
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: wandered and was found and was injured and then but
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: ultimately remembers who he is and makes the choice to
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: not come back.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Right. This brings up another question. He still goes by him?
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Is like, given name, right? Is there not a utility
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: bill of this guy's name?
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, how do you what are the logistics actually
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: faking your death?
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: I have to go back to the Julia Roberts movie
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: where she swims away in the middle of the night
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: and gets away from her abusive husband and he still
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: finds her with a with the enemy.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: That's one of the scariest movies I've ever seen. It's
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: a great movie. It is a great movie. But when
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: she stacks up the towels and she turns around and
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: they're all straightened out. He was in her house, yes, but.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Remember she faked her death. Did she fake her death?
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: In that movie she did, didn't she remember? She like
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: didn't know how to swim, and she taught herself how
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: to swim in so then she he thought she drowned.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Out in the ocean.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, anyhow, she changes her name. Anybody who runs away,
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: gone girl changes her name, Like you're not. I'm just
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: gonna like, oh, I'm I'm going to move to Boston,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: which is not far from where they are in this movie,
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: right it takes place where do they live? Yes, there's
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: some physical record of him. I'm like, what why can
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: they not find him? Especially if he was in the
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: hospital for any extended period of time post to accident.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Somebody is going to know where this man is.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Right, because we have a tragedy in my parents' friend history,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: and the friend went missing and I remember I was
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: nine years old at the time, and I remember my
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: mom going to this woman's house and they were looking
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: for her husband. And they would call and they would
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: say do you have and they would ask the call
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: the hospital, and they'd ask for his name, and they'd
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: say can you spell it? And they would spell it
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: and they would say no, and they would say, do
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: you have any John Doe. The story was like they
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: would say, oh, can you spell that? Like she was
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: just so frustrated about the whole process, like can you
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: spell John Doe? They would ask, oh, gosh and so.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: But you would call the hot do you have anybody
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: who's unidentified? Is there is my husband there?
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: No?
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: To me vividly remember that, you would call the hospital
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: and ask, right with John Doe?
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: So, so the are we just to believe? The mom
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, he left and he's dead, so nobody's
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: looking for him.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's the story I want. I need at
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: some point in the Family History Mysteries a scene of
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: the crime a what happened in.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: The week Family Mysteries. Yes, exactly, take me back to
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: whenever this was supposed to be.

  Speaker 1: we're stars. So did I.

  Speaker 2: the next installment of the Wedding Bell. It looks kind
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: of like a bummer.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: Well, there's that scene, he goes, I need to talk
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: to you, and she makes that frownie thing, and I'm like,
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: what's happening? Because with Peter and Avery, they're so in
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: love and all of their conflicts are so minor. It's like, Oh,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: we're renovating this big, beautiful castle and we're gonna have
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: a baby, and I think maybe we're gonna have some
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: bigger conflict here.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: I hope, So, I hope it's give me some meat,
• 40:28
