  Speaker 3: If you listened to last year's The Way Home series.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: We did like a straight scene by scene recap, and
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: we decided based on our own thoughts and opinions and
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: the feedback from Facebook group members, to change it up
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: this year.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so a little backstory here. Five minutes ago, we
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: were literally figuring out like what we were doing. We
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: did we wanted to see the first episode first before
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: like figuring out how we were going to structure this episode. Right, Yeah,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I'm excited about what we came up with.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I am too. I think it touches on everything, a
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: little bit of recapping key moments, a little bit of
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: It's similar to our movie reviews, but not identical. And
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: I think one of the things that's hard is, like
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: we knew the structure of season one a lot, like
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: we knew we were gonna get ninety ninety moments in
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty three moments. We don't really know what this
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: season's going to bring, so there may be some segments
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: we have to bring into the mix as the season progresses.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: So, first up, we do know from season one that
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: they do title every episode with a song title, and
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: this week's episode is The Space Between, which is a
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Dave Matthews Band song from the year two thousand and one.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Are you a Dave Matthews fan.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: It's not like the full catalog. I do enjoy their music,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: but not not like everything. I'm not like one to
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: go to the yearly concert or anything like that. Yeah.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: I have been to two Dave Matthews Band concerts. Wow,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: that's news in my much younger years. Interesting, I was
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: like a throw at Dodger Stadium one year.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Did you have a tied ie shirt on?
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I didn't look. I will tell you that I went
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: with some women that I worked with who were hardcore,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: and the events that took place in my car prior
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: to the concert were not done with my sanctioning. Because
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I'm a very good girl. I can only imagine.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: I was like, we're gonna get arrested.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Jesus, oh my god. Of course you were driving.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Of course I was driving. Who's going to be the
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: only one nut bombed out of her mind with this concert?
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: It's over to get his own.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: That's funny.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Let's talk news and notes.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, I have a big one.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Please.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Hallmark is advertising that The Way Home reairs on Hallmark Movies,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: now right, Yeah, it's on Peacock too. Don't let it
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: get the it twisted here. I watched it on Peacock
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so you're saying, don't pay for that Hallmark Movies
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Now subscription if you got a Peacock subscription, exactly.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I mean I think just Hallmark wants people to like
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: utilize Hallmark Movies Now, which I do. I pay for
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: a subscription myself, as do, but I also have a
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Peacocks Peacock subscription, so I think there's some misleading advertisement
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: happening there.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: So if you missed it, I did see a comment
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: come in on our Instagram someone saying they had missed it.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Check out Peacock or you know, get a free Homemark
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Movies Now at trial if you don't have Peacock well.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: And especially if you want to watch the fan favorite
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: movies that were reviewing this year. I watched them on
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Hallmark Movies Now so too. I mean, I just don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: like that Hallmark has been like, oh the way Home
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: is you know airing the next day. Well, it's all
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Peacock too, any.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Cool, lots of options if you don't have traditional cable, yes,
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: put on the friendly app. Oh yeah, all right, I
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: have a director. Note this episode was directed by Grant Harvey.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: He did direct four episodes in season one of The
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Way Home, episodes one, two, five, and six. There is
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: no updated IMDb info for any of these. I had
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: to find that information elsewhere, so I do not know
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: what future episodes he has directed. Of this season. He
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: has forty five directing credits, tons of TV series and
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: shows like Heartland, Why Known, irb, Orphan Black. He definitely
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: veers a little bit more towards the serious than the
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: rom com.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: So I think for this episode, it's important to get
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: listeners up to speed on where everybody is at in
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Port Haven.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: So I wanna go character by character.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's start with Kat. Sure, she's the editor in
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: chief at the Herald Now, which has now become a
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: weekly newspaper, not a daily paper.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Which quite frankly is all porth Haven needs. I'm serious.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how much news is happening overnight? There?
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Quality over quantity.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Alice is getting ready to finish the school year and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: she's headed to Minnie, Minneapolis to be with her dad.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: For the summer and girlfriend Rachel Elliott has been off
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: traveling the world. Super Curious how science teacher Elliott was
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: paying for these world.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Travels, super interested in finding out how science teacher Elliott
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: left during the school year too, got a Mexican vacation
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: what not?
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Just he was everywhere, I know, but everywhere.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was sending postcards last from Mexico.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Dell appears to have expanded her enterprises to include beekeeping
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: and honey sales.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. My note says Dell is doing be stuff. I mean,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what was she doing before?
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Farm stuff?
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I don't arm stuff.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she have jam I believe that the high school
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: kids would harvest.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't remember.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: And we also find out that Dell's neighbor is gonna
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: sell his farm and as a result, he will no
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: longer be farming her land. This just feels like a
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: little bit of like exposition, right. This neighbor shows up.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: If we've seen him before, it's been very brief. I
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: don't recall this man. Do you recall this man? I don't,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: And I watched last season pretty carefully. I feel like
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: we're setting up for you know. He says, well, you
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: could probably get someone else to farm the land, and
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Dell so she'll handle it. She's not going anywhere, and
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: we're going to talk in the next segment. You know,
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Delle's having a little bit of like a existential crisis
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: about her place in the world, and so that might
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: influence how she feels about what they're going to do
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: with this land and the Landry Farm and the history
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: that lives there.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she is the owner of the restaurant. I can't
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: remember the name of it right now. Anyway, she seems
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: to be very good friends with Cat now they seem
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: very close.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they seem to have let go of their antagonistic
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: relationship because they were hot and cold in season one.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if you caught it. When Spencer
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: picks up Alice for school, you hear a voice over
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: say I got into that cooking school or something like that.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, is Spencer going to be leaving?
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Well, she says, like what in Italy or in France?
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: It's somewhere far away.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, And is that just setting us up
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: for like Spencer's not going to miss her When they're
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: on their spoiler alert later in this episode time travel Escapades.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Perhaps, perhaps perhaps we also know that Cat has been
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: cheesing down leads on Jacob in lieu of time traveling.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: They have stopped jumping in the pond, and so she
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: was working with a historical society because based on information
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: she found in the almanac, she knows that Jacob was
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: somewhere in time after the Almanac existed. He left her
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: that clue about explorers looking to the stars, but she
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: has come up empty so far. Dun, dun, dun.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: They're gonna go to the pond again. Spoiler. They also
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: introduced three new characters. Evelyn Goodwin, who we learned just
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: recently passed and she is part of the founding family
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: of Port Haven. We're going to talk about her and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: a little bit more later and then also Elijah and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Rebecca Landry are also founding family members. Never heard of
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: them before this season, never knew about their initials in
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: the fireplace, nothing like that before.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Yes, it makes me wonder if Rebecca Landry is perhaps
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: the answer to one of the questions we're gonna ask
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: later in this episode. Oh right, all right, so well,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: let's hear a synopsis of this episode.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Sure Dale recreates traditions of family summers past, Alice misses
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: her friends, and Kat grapples with Jacob's mystery in the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: wake of losing Elliott.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: I feel like that does a good job ignoring a
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: major plot point that we're going to discuss every episode,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: kind of the key plot points happening moving our story forward.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: And I think the big key plot point in this
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: episode is you said Evelyn Goodwin? Is it Goodwin or Goodwin?
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Did I write it down correctly?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I might have written it down incorrectly.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Well, she wouldn't be on IMDb because she did. Okay,
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Evelyn has passed away. She's a town legend, and in
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: her will she has left a number of assets to
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: the Herald that Kat now has to dig through. And
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: I think Kat shows up expecting maybe there's going to
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: be a box of documents or items, but no, in fact,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: there's rooms upon rooms of cardboard boxes and cat She
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: comments that, like this is like the ending of Indiana Jones, right,
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: like the treasure they find, which that was quite funny.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I didn't really get it. It's been a long time
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: since I've seen an Indiana Jones movie.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: I just think like at the end, they're always discovering
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: some treasure or another. It's always bigger and more vast
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: than they expected it to be. That's okay, my understanding
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: but certainly there are bigger Indiana Jones fans out there
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: than I. This kind of sets off like a trajectory
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: for both of our moms. We've got Cat and Dell
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: both kind of experiencing some things as a result of
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: this visit to the Evelyn estate. Yeah. Cat among the
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: boxes discovers a portrait that looks shockingly.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Like Cat herself. Yeah, I guess.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: I was like, it's her with the inscription my Catherine.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: And that portrait is two hundred years old. So we
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: know some things, right.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Like why is it hanging in this house?
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, that's another good question. Dell is on her
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: own little exploration in this home, and it's really kind
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: of sad because she comes across this room, which is
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: like Evelyn's sick room. All of her medications are still there.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: There's like a reclainer pointing out the window, and Dell
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: just realizes, like, this woman kind of died alone in
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: this big house. And I think she has a moment.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: I know she has a moment because she discusses it
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: later where she's like, wait, I don't want this to
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: be me stuck in time. I want to move forward,
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: even in the midst of the tragedy of my life.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Did you notice the binoculars in that scene? I did.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: They're on a stand right, It.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Was just weird they're by the window. In my mind,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I'm like, what is she looking out over the Landrys farm?
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Because in my head, and this may not be the
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: actual logistics, but I feel like that mansion what did
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: they call it, Lingamore something like that overlooking the Landry farm.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Here's why I don't think it's that, because they talk
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: about having to take a drive out to oh X location. Yeah,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: so I think it might be not on their land.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: So do you think maybe the binoculars are just significant
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: because it's this old woman who's alone in her house
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: and she's looking out over the town because she's sad.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: I think that scene gives us more questions and answers
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: because there's a couple like flashbacks, but audio only for
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: both Kat and Dell. Did you remember hearing that like
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: there's some yelling in the background, something seems like a
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: party scene happening. Yes, but we don't there's no visual,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: so we don't know. We don't know what those moments
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: are referencing. We don't know what this house has to
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: do with them. There's a lot we don't know about
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: this house and it's connection to the Landry women.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Well, especially I thought it was interesting when Kat tells
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Dell that she's going up there, like, yeah, I'm going
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: with you, you know, So, like, what's the significance of this house?
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: How did it play a role with this family? I'm
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: interested me too. All right, let's talk moments. We liked
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: what grabbed you in this episode. Well, Rita really coming
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: in hot with her jokes, and I loved it when
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: she tells Kat. Did she tell Cat? Yeah, she told
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Cat that Elliott had a glow up in what the
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: kids are calling a hot boy summer. I about died.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: My daughter watching this with me, rolled her eyes. I
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: thought it was hilarious. It's literally the first thing in
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: my notes Rita. Rita drove me crazy last season, but
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: maybe I like Rita this season.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Rita's coming in hot. So in general in this episode,
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: I like the way the flashbacks were handled. We don't
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: have any time travel up until the very last scene,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: so we don't get the normal movement of nineteen nineties
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: present day, but we did still we have nineteen nineties
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Landry moments in flashback form and particularly in the summer
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: firework party parallel and then the party after party at
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: the Cove, and I'm so glad that we're still getting
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: those moments, like we're still seeing Colton, we're still seeing
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: the happy Landry family pre tragedy in the nineties, because
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: that's so core to this series for me. We know
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: that according to Elliott, Alice never time traveled back to
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the nineties again, so it was unclear and I was
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: a little nervous. Second seasons of shows can struggle, yes,
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: and I was drawn back in immediately like they wasted
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: no time. This was a plus episode for me.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I think so too. I will say I the first
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: five minutes were super chaotic, and I was like, this
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: feels like an end of an episode versus the beginning.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: But we just had, like the end of the you know,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: it was winter season, Alice gets trapped under the ice,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: which like unlocked a lot of fears. Me too. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: was like, oh God, awful, awful, awful, But that felt
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: like so weird and chaotic to open the episode like this,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I thought, any other moments that you liked or stood out?
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: I liked Kat and Elliott's kiss, and I like that
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: it sets up for us that they both still have
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: feelings for each other.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: But here's what I like.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: I like that their roles have reversed a little bit.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Kat is the one who steps back, you know, Elliot
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: broker heart he needed more, he took off, and Elliot's like, wait,
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: obviously he wanted that moment to go on. We see
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: in the text that he deletes later that he wished
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: that moment had continued. And I'm wondering in Elliott's perspective,
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: is he like, Okay, now I've had my room springer,
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: so to speak. Is he going to be like, Okay,
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: I'm ready now you should be waiting for me. And
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: she wasn't kind of like it.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not like she's like moved on to
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: somebody else either, you know what I mean. She's just
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: she chose her right, you know what I mean, and
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: to heal and to repair her relationship with Alice and
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: her mom. And I mean, it's good they have to
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: continue the tension between these two, obviously because it was
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: a significant part to last season. So of course I'm
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: rooting for them to get together.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: There's no way these two aren't the endgame of this show, absolutely,
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: all right, it's time for some unsolved mysteries, and there's
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: a lot of them in this episode.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Like I told you, I feel like we're not getting
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: any closer to an answer. This episode just opened like
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: a bigger can of worms, you know, Like I feel
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: at the end of season one, we kind of got
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: an understanding that, yes, we all believe Jacob jumped into
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: the pond and it is somewhere time traveling somewhere, right.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: But now, well, first of all, it opens the episode
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: where we have this old woman and Jacob. Who is
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: the old woman one? And I don't know if you.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: Know, Landry, I don't know.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know either, And I kind of thought that
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: their clothes look dated, like eighteen hundred dated, like two
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: hundred years old dated. Agree, Yes, so maybe that's where
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: everybody's headed is back to.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, we know from the final scene of Slash one, yeah,
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: that they're headed pretty far in the past based on
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: long haired cats dressing gown that she's running through the
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: woods in, so that that stands to reason. But then
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: it's the question she says, you know, you have to
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: stay here now for a while, and why, what's happening
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: where and when? And why are all the questions, Yeah,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: what's the horse doing? Is the horse time traveling? Did
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: the horse trump in the pond? Are there wild horses?
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Clearly Dell is taken by this horse. It's not a
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: regular occurrence. So what's the deal with the horse? And
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: they really like hit you over the head with it,
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: Like if you didn't notice this horse in the first scene,
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: here's two more scenes where we're gonna make sure you
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: realize that there's something to this horse, y'all.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, did it come out of the pond? Like is
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: it going to be wet at some point? And they're
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: gonna be like, oh, it's from the pond. I don't
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: know is the horse?
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: What the heck am I doing here? And where is
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: my farm? I cannot find my hay Lady with the honey,
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: please feed me?
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: What's this wild horse just running around Port Haven?
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Weird? Okay? Who is watching Colton and Elliott's conversation?
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: Me?
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Personally? I think it is Colton?
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Oh you think it's Colton?
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I paused it. The hair looks similar. He's wearing a
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: plaid shirt. It's giving Coulton vibes. But I don't know
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: from when, from before he died.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, I don't know either.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I could be wrong. Who do you think it could be? Watching?
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Well? I thought it was Elliot from another time, like
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: adult Elliot.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: But that's not his style though, my lad.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: Shirt, well, he's got to steal it from somebody. He's
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: coming out of the pond. Maybe he's pulling it off
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: their clothesline. That's a good point, it's not his style.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: My other thought was maybe it's Jacob. That doesn't make sense.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: It could be Jacob as an adult.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: I don't there's too many questions. I am glad that
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: they gave us that scene twice because the first time
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: it was very easy to miss the did you hear that?
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: And then they move on and then we get it
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: again and we pull back and see the shadowy figure.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Who is it? That's interesting? Didn't occur to meet this
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Culton But.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: But no, I think maybe it might be Jacob. I
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: don't know. Oh, this so many questions.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: Hey, friends, Megan here and I had to add this
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: emergency note to this podcast episode. It is currently Tuesday morning.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: We recorded this on Monday. The episode drops on Wednesday.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: I couldn't wait another week to discuss this. I saw
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: on Instagram while scrolling this morning, someone said, I think
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: Elliott might be a villain, and look, I'm not ready
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: to go there yet. I still think Elliott's one of
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: the good guys, but I don't think he's been truthful.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: I now strongly suspect that Elliott was not traveling but
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: time traveling while he was gone. And I also, in
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: addition to that, believe that he lied to Alice when
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: he told her that she never returned to nineteen eighty
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: nine porth Haven.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Again, we'll see why.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: I don't have the answers to that, but I think
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: we're onto something here. All right, back to the episode.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Well, here's another question that ties into this. Alice and
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Kat jump into the pond, and we don't know when
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: either of them are. Alice emerges from the pond and
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: sees young Elliott. I assumed that meant she was in
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: the nineties, but you pointed out I.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Think young Elliott might be in current day.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's why I'm like, wait a minute, when
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: you said that, if young Elliott is time traveling, maybe
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: adult Elliot also does some time traveling, because when he
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: sees cat Analys go back to the pond, I don't know.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Maybe because that scene when they jump into the water
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: when they're holding hands and Kat gets ripped from her
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: because she gets all caught up in the weeds, right,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Alice to me, I assume she swims up. She's getting
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: out in twenty twenty four, let's say, and we see
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: young Elliott, So I I think young Elliott is in
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: current day.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: The only reason I didn't think that is they jump
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: in the pond in the summer. When they come out,
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: it's like foggy and give the image of it being
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: cold outside even when Alice comes up again. This is
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: filmed in Vancouver. It could very well have been cold
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: and they just couldn't do anything about that. I don't
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: know more. When they jump in the pond, who were
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: those voices we hear? You know, I commented earlier and
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: were prepping our notes that the seaweed talks. Obviously it's
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: not the seaweed, but we hear voices saying something like, oh,
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: don't you want to know what she's doing here? And
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: then they the sentient seaweed grabs her and pulls her under,
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: and then where does she go? And who shoots her?
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: And obviously she does not die, so what is going
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: to happen?
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Who shoots her? And I was trying. I don't know
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: anything about like weapons, So I was like, is this
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: like an old timey gun? Yeah?
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: I like it right, current time gun. I don't know
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: a musket. I don't know either. I don't even know
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: what a musket is. It just sounds old again, don't know. Yeah,
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: so many questions, You're right, and of course the cat portrait.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: What is the providence of that portrait? No idea. I
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: wish I had some answers. I don't more questions. Another segment,
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: did we find Jacob? Which is going to be an
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: ongoing segment, And I would like to say that I
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: feel like there's a couple of things that I personally
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: feel like I know to be true. Tell me we
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: are going to find Jacob this season. I don't think
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: they can. I don't think they can do it to us. Again,
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: I think we got to find him. Whether we get
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: him back or not, somebody has to put eyes on him.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: One of the present day Landry ladies. Yes, that would
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: be awesome, especially knowing that at the end of season one,
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: Cat says Jacob will come back for you.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Yes. Look, I'm fully hung up. I am now convinced
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: that it was Jacob who was watching Cold and Jacob
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: It just wait a minute, wait, wait, wait, No, what
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say next is not going to make
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: sense because I was like, doesn't Jacob isn't he as
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: a child? Isn't he wearing a plaid shirt? Well, he's
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: not going to be wearing the same damn plaid shirt
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: as an adult, So no, I don't know. Well that
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: goes to my other point we've talked about before, like,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: when we find Jacob, what form is it going to
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: be in?
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: Right? We know that in the Way Home Universe, when
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: you time travel, time passes at the same speed it's
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: passing at the time you came from. Right, So when
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: they find Jacob, he will be adult Jacob, like when
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: adult Cat finds Jacob. Making the assumption that's he will
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: be an adult, He's not going to be stuck in
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: his eight year old body, right, because less unless she
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: goes back to the moment he goes back. Right, That's
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: where it gets confusing. Let's with made up numbers. Let's
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: say he goes from nineteen ninety to eighteen twelve. Moving forward,
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: he would get older every year. But if kat goes
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: from twenty twenty four to eighteen twelve. Then he is
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: still eight years old. This hurts my brain. I was
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: having a whole thought to myself last night on my
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: walk with the dog, really trying to process how we're
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: gonna find Jacob, and I thought, I know what I know,
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: but maybe I don't time travel. Every time it gets me.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: At the second I think I've got it, it throws
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: me for another loop.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, hey, here'd be a real curve fault. What
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: if they bring Jacob back as an adult and he's
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: played by Tyler Hines. How about did you would imagine?
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: Here's why that doesn't work for me because he's a
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: little boy. I know he's an adult at this point,
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: but I'm like, cute little Jacob. It's not The cognitive
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: dissonance is not gonna work with like hot dude Tyler Hines.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: Although let's not forget how hot young Nick is. Oh yes,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: we got to see hot Nick again. Hot Nick is back.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Man, this show is just all over the place,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: But I love it. That's what makes the show so good.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: It makes you're thinking about it while you're walking the dog.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Also, I do want to say that Alice nailed the
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: teenaged thanks in this episode. She's annoyed with everybody and
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: I loved it. She's like, Elliott, you suck like she
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: just I loved it.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Tell me exactly why she's pissed that Elliott bounced, because
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: I think.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: Elliott is like a parental figure in her life and
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: he was like, I will be here for you, and
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: then he took off. Okay, And I don't think fifteen
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: year olds can process the need for an adult to
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: do their own thing.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Make some space for themselves, right right? Can we move
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: on to our next segment? Oh my gosh, yess, we're
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: not done. Okay, Okay, Like you said, I think music
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: is a big part of the show. Obviously it was
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: a big part of season one, so I thought it
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: would be fun to like highlight it in these podcasts
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: going forward. M hmm with a segment we're gonna call
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: Gen Piken does it again? Now you're like, who the
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: heck is Jen Piken? Well, she is the Emmy Award
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: winning music supervisor for The Way Home and you won
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: her Emmy four.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: She won her Emmy four This is Us for the
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: music supervision This is Us.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: She has also worked on so many things. I'm gonna
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: name a few of them. Workaholics, Las Vegas, One Tree Hill.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: My personal fave. This the music in One Tree Hill.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: It has burned a memory in my brain. I remember
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: how good it was Alias Felicity. And also a movie
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: called Reality Bites, which is one of the best soundtracks
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: movie of my youth. Yeah.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Jen Piken's a real legend.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: She is. I mean, I like followed her on Instagram today.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: She does like a masterclass and music supervision. Oh she's
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: the real deals. So let's talk about the music. In
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: this episode, when Kat's running, she's listening to a song
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: called Decode by Paramore from two thousand and eight. And
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: as I'm watching this last night, I even tweeted I
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: was like Paramore on the Hallmark channel like unheard of,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Like that's so freaking cool. I just loved it, loved it.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Great song choice. Also, of course the song of the
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Summer Still My Sunshine by Lynn, which had to be
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: a one hit wonder because I remember the song. I
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: don't remember the band at all. It's from nineteen ninety nine.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: This whole scene where they're like singing it in the
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: kitchen made me very uncomfortable.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: It kind of felt like when you go to a
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: concert and you see people trying to sing a song
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: that they don't know the words too. I felt like
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: they didn't really know the words the song, and it
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: made me feel very old.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the Dell moment especially, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry. Yeah.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: And then of course we got All for You by
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Sister Hazel from nineteen ninety seven. This is a repeat
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: from last year. If I recall, I love that song.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Can we share the deep dive that somebody shared with
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: and our Facebook group about that song?
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: Please?
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Do you remember it? No, let me go back and
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: find it. Oh, I have it? Okay, read it to us.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: While listening to the replay of the Way Home reviews
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: in prep for the release of season two, this is
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: the post you're talking about, right, Yes, they were discussing
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: the song that Elliot and Kat listened to on the
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: road trip, All for You. I wondered if Megan and
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: Wendy realized that Sister Hazel is the reason that Sixth
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: Man got started, and sixth Man is who is producing
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: the Hallmark Christmas Wild coincidence. That is wild, And of
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: course we will be on the Hallmark Christmas cruise and base.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Oh wouldn't that be cool if Sister Hazel is there?
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine? That's why I love our Facebook group though,
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: because they all know, Like, it's not just a one
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: off that someone posted that deep cut information.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well everybody there knows something. It's awesome.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: Yes, thank you for reminding me of that moment.
