  Speaker 2: fangirling so hard right now. Thank you for having me,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Thanks for having me.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: So you may have appeared in the series, but you
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: know stars hollow like you said, oh yeah, And before
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: we jump in, I got to ask, Okay, when did
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: you first become a Gilmore Girl fan? Who or what
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: pulled you in?
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I was late to it, so I didn't watch it
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: growing up. I didn't watch it, you know when I
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: was in high school, which is like everyone my age
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: watched it in high school. And then throughout my twenties
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: and my early thirties, I mean I'm thirty six, everyone said,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: you would love this show, Gilmore Girls. You would love it,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: you would love it. This is so you, this is
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: so up your alley. And then when I was pregnant
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: with my seconds. This was two years ago. I was
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: pregnant with my second child, my son, I decided like, okay, well,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to commit to a show postpartum, because
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you know when you have a baby, then you kind
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: of have like a month or two to just like
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: relax and nest. And I'm like, what is that show
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: going to be? And I chose Gilmore Girls. And when
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I tell you, it didn't take It didn't take me
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: two months. It took me two seconds. And my daughter
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: watched it with me. My husband would come in and
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: watch it with me, and so I became obsessed, like
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: a couple years ago. So I'm new, but I know
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: all the things.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Wow, you know all the things.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I know all the things all.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Right, Hammers and veils. Here's a little synopsis. Laurla I
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: tries to decide what veil length she would like to
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: wear for her wedding to Max while Rory starts the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: summer session at Chilton and volunteers to build houses for
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: the needy. Meanwhile, Dean is feeling left out of Rory's
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: life when she starts planning a slew of extracurricular activities.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: And might I add that Luke is feeling a little
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: butt hurt here?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Can I ask you about that?
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: As an actor who was playing Luke, I mean you
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: are Luke to me? Like, did you guys know when
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: you started filming that your love story was gonna be
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: like the one throughout every season? Or were you just
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: surprised every like did you know that you were supposed
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: to be It's clear to the audience, like you have
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: a thing for Loralai and Lorela is a thing for you, right,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: but it takes so long for you guys to get
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: together that I'm like, was he I look back at
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: that episode, I'm like, was he butt hurt because he's
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: not with Loralai? Or is there's like something else going on?
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Because it took y'all so long.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: But I think that's the magic of this, of that storyline,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: is that it did take so long. Yeah, because you
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: don't see that. You don't see that anymore. You don't
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: see it at all.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: No, you really don't. And the build up is so
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: satisfying ones, yes, yeah, yes, And.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: So in fact, we're discussing this just recently about how
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: special that relationship is and how long it took to
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: develop and how lucky I feel being a part of that,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you know, and being able to inhabit that character that long.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: But I mean we knew, I mean, my team and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I knew from the beginning because I was cast as
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: a guest star in the pilot. I wasn't even a
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: series regular, and it was a kind of a heat
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: check with Lauren. So when I went up to Toronto
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and you know, they'd all read the script just like
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I did, and they said, well, the diner appears the
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: very first scene. It is the very last scene. So
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: this is a thing, you know, so they want to
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: make this work and build this over this over the seasons.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: It's a successful show. So we kind of knew that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: that was like the relationship. And as the years went on,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the first couple of years, the fans were so enamored
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: of that relationship. We kind of knew that anything can
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: happen in television. Anybody can get sort of like pushed aside,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and you know, we felt pretty good about it lasting well.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Because y'all's chemistry was off the charts.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty good. That's pretty good. Directed by the
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: great Michael Cattleman and written by the great Amy Sherman Palladino.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: We're going to talk about storyline, So let's talk about
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the Paris and Rory stuff. Okay, as much as Paris
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: wants to avoid Rory, she keeps Clock and Rory throughout
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the episode. Your initial thoughts on the Paris and Rory
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: storyline overall and this episode particular.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Well, overall, I love it, like I love I love
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: when there's like a mean girl with heart. I don't know,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: like the evolution of that of seeing that like someone's
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: just like not so one dimensional and that there's like
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: pain underneath there, and there's reasons why she's doing the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: things that she's doing and the pressure that she's under,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: and that she's actually just really insecure at Paris is
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: just really insecure, and so she's taking all of her
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: insecurities out on Rory, even though she's drawn to Rory
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: and you could tell she wants to be friends with Rory,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: so like, I'm a big fan of that friendship. Over
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: the course of every single season, I mean, in this
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: episode you can see her kind of soften a bit
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: in moments, you know, I just, yeah, I really like Paris.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Did you find it odd that Paris told her gave
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: her all of that information about extracurriculars and how Harvard
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: views extracurriculars and that she's like, if she's enemies with her,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: why is she telling you this stuff?
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Right? But that's what makes this show so interesting is
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: because it's like not obvious, right, you know, it makes
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: you think and it's so so it's like, oh, Okay,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: there's something there with Paris where like she want you
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: see that bit of heart in her where she's like,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: I want to be close to Rory in some way,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: you know, Right now, like if I don't like someone,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: I'm not doing that, I'm not helping them out.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: So maybe it was Paris felt she was so far
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: ahead of the game and Rory was so far behind
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: the game in terms of extracurriculars. She was just rubbing
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: it in her face, like it's too late for you. You're
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: not getting in Harvard. This is why I've been doing
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: this since I was four years old, volunteering in Boom boom,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: boom boom, and look at you. You're you know you're
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: gonna graduate in a couple years. You've got nothing. So
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I'm going to Harvard. You're not Boom, there you go.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: So she felt secured imparting the information.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: For sure. I also feel like that was her like unloading,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Like that was her getting out like everything that she's
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: been stressed about and having to deal with her whole
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: life and like do more, do more, accomplish more, it's
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: never enough. It like almost felt like it was like
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: a little therapy session for her. She just like wants
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: to purge and she wants someone to connect with her
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: and she wants someone to listen. But at the same time,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: because she's so like frustrated with how her life is
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: she has to just like make Rory feel like shit also.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Right, you know, and it's like Paris is not the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: type of person that really cares about any of these people.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: She's just doing it because she has to do it. Yeah,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and now Rory's put in the same position she's She
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: had that one line that did not age well. By
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the way, very few things in this show don't age well.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: There's not a lot. There's some stuff, right, but it's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know it was. It was a line, right,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and so like these people don't care, they don't mean,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like their heart's not in. They're just
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: doing it to get into harm.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I know, yes, are.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: You a little surprised? Whore? I didn't know that to
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: begin with, about the extra currimulars.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: You know, one would think, you know, because when I
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: was growing up, we knew the drill. You can't just
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: make good grades.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: No, everybody knew it.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: You know, you gotta be doing I knew it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: In junior high school. I know it in high school.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: You know. It's like, yeah, that's common knowledge.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: One hundred percent. So you know, I hadn't thought about
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: that when I was watching the episode. But you're right,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: like she should have known that, But also who who
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: was going to teach her? I don't know her mom
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: wasn't going to Laurelize not isn't helpful in that department.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: But like, you know, you kind of just in your
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: own school. You grow up just hearing conversations from other kids.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: You just you know, to do the most.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Even from Richard and Emily, especially Richard.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: You went to Yale, right, but like how close were
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: they up until first episode?
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Extra curriculars extracurricularus. So now she's building homes. One of
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the the funniest moments of the whole episode for me,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you, was the bejeweled hammer and then I
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: want iff yeger Biff Jeger takes it. He looks at it,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he's holding it and he's just staring at it. Says, yeah,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: my mom dressed it all up. He goes, yeah, yeah,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: she dressed it all up. All right. She's just at like,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: what's going on?
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but where can we get one of those hammers?
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: You know, that's the way to get me to hang
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: things in my house. You know, I'll stop paying People
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: are asking my husband if I have a bedazzled hammer.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: You know what that's that's a good idea. I think
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I'm going to bring this up with consumer products at
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Warner Bus. Make a mini one, not a big one,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: like like a mini that's not bad, But damn you no,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: it's not. You think that would sell? You think fans
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: would love a mini bejeweled pink hammer?
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, especially put it on a keychain? Are you joking?
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Would be good, wouldn't it? It would be really good.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: It does kind of represent Laurela. I mean it's like
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: all the fluff and the.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Fun and it's a hammer.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Got mess with her here?
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Correct?
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if Lorelai wasn't inanimate object, definitely the bedazzled hammer.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: So true. All right, So now we had the little
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: confrontation between Paris and Rory. It's hurt. It's Paris a spot.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: She's been working on that spot. Get out of here.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: What can I just say? Is that how people go
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: and build houses?
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Because I've done that.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: So how did you know what to do if I
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: showed up to go home, build house? Where do you
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: put the nail?
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Well? They show you. And Plus I worked on construction
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: sites when I was growing up, So my stepfather was
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: a contractor, so my summer jobs would be, you know,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: basically cleaning out giant areas of sheet rock that was
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: all broken up and it took forever. But sometimes hammering stuff.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't trust me to build a house
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: like that if I found out my house was made
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: by people like Rory.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: No, it's a social scene because when I did it,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: when I did Habitat for Humanity, the first time I
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: met both Derek, Oh, we were hammering next to each other.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Oh, so you guys are mingling, you know, work in
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: the room.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we were mingling so much, but
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: you know, she was next.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: To me CNBCNE while making a house exactly.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: All right, so she's balancing school. Rory's balancing school, community
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: service college apps. Let me ask you, Stussy, Were you
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: a Rory at Paris? Maybe Lane in high school? Who
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: are you?
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Oh? I kind of think I was more like Lane
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: actually really really yeah, I kind of kept I had
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: my inners. Just I wasn't like a girl with like
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: a shit ton of friends. I didn't really like go
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: to parties that much. I just I made good grades.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I had my group of like five core friends. I
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: was like president of the drama club and like that.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Those were all my extracurricular activities and I kind of
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: kept to myself, so I wasn't so obsessed the way
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: that Rory is. You know, I wasn't like a brainiac,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: and like I definitely wasn't like Paris like all on
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: top of her shit like that. And I actually like
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: didn't bully people, So there is that. I feel like
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: I was more like a lane.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, all right, let's talk about this storyline
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Rory summer plans and Deans insecurities.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Deans such a little weasel.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: It's an he gets really triggered fast.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I know. He's just like, he's such a little weasel.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: And it's hard for me to talk about this episode
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: just specifically without the rest of the seasons clouding my judgment.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna try. I'm gonna try real hard.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Opine away, don't don't restrain yourself.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: It's just like, I know, ever see any good moments
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: from Dean. I'm never like that there nice night, Yeah right, No,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Dean is just kind of like naggy.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: He's not exactly supportive, is he not at all? He
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: doesn't really understand and he kind of just.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Like gaslights a little bit and then he just you know,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: he throws a hissy fit, and then they don't talk
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: for a while, and then he's like, oh, I'm sorry,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, that's exhausting. That's exhausting.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: It is, it is exhausting. He even like kind of
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: raises his voice to her. Donny gets a little aggressive
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: throughout the show. Yes, and this guy's six. She sees
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: six 'y four. You imagine being shrieked at by six
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: y four when you're like, I mean, you know, Alexis said,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: was she five five five six five seven?
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but good point. Tall dudes, listen up,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: No shouting at us.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Stop shouting at people. Tall dudes. Later, at Lorelized engagement party,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Dean apologizes, you know, he just sort of shows up there.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: He is, you know, which that would annoy me because right, okay,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: you have this giant party and like part of parties
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: are looking forward to the party, like you know, everything
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: leading up to the party. That's half of the whole
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: point of the party. So you're telling me that she
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: was she had to spend that whole entire time not
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: knowing if he was going to come, so she didn't
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: get to enjoy the lead up to the party because
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: she's like, I don't know if my boyfriend, my weasel boyfriend,
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: is going to show up or not. And then just
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: midway he Waltz is in making it about him. Can't
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: even be on time right right?
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know. No, it's a tough one for Dean.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Have you ever felt threatened by someone's future? You ever
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: been in Rory's or Dean?
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: No, I think everyone's always just been threatened by my future.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: That was my next question, Who has been? Has anyone
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: ever felt threatened by your future?
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: I've been in relationships where dudes were threatened to by
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: my future, So yeah, I feel that I feel Rory, were.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: You this motivated by school? Did you want to get
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: to a certain college when you were in high school?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I knew I just wanted to go to college in
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: LA because I'm from New Orleans originally, and so I
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: wanted to go to USC or Loyola Marymount. It didn't
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: have to be like a Harvard school. I just knew
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: where I wanted to be, and I knew I loved
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: school and that it was important to me. So but
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: I'm also the type of person where I do just
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: like the amount that I'm required to do so that
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: I know I'll get what I want. Like, I'm not
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: going way above and beyond, Like I can see the
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: line of like I know how to get into this
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: school and this is ABCD. I'm not going to do
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: more than that. I'm not going to do more than that.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do exactly what I need to do
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: and then enjoy my life.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Hmm, all right, Okay, laurelized engagement in Emily's response, Okay,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: if we're gonna talk about this storyline, she finally Laurel
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I does accept Max's proposal. However, she doesn't told her
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: mother yes. So what a great setup at that dinner,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: that Friday night dinner was the perfect set up. Talk
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: a little bit about that.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Well, first of all, house goals, I need to say that,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: like that Emily Gilmore's house Richard, that needs to go
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: on my vision board in terms of just like you know,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: home decor. Emily's my favorite character. Okay, So, like this
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: was this scene hurt. Thank god for the end of
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: this episode, okay, where we find out why, but this
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: was so cruel in the moment and for like the
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: viewers to not understand why Emily would be so dismissive
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: of Laura. I it was just like it was shocking.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: It was like, that's like parent, that's like a child
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: abuse and it just kind of like hits home where
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: you know, when you become an adult, your relationship with
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: your parents change and you see their flaws and they're
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: not like the perfect person that you thought they were.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: It kind of just it makes you think about your
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: own parents. But yeah, that scenes, really that's a hard
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: watch scene.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, funny they managed if Lauren managed to find the
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: humor in it, you.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Know, I mean I did. I guess when her and
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Rory are walking away like walking through stars hollow afterwards,
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: because Laura always uses humor, you know, to cope, which,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: like I get it, relate, definitely relate, But in the moment,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I don't remember any humor. It was just more like,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: holy shit, how could she say this? How could Emily
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: say this to her? Maybe we'll be there. If not,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: we'll send a gift.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: That's cold, man, it's so cold. Yeah. Well, I mean,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: you know, she and get told.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: We find that out in the end, though, So I
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: had what people like me have to watch thirty more
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: minutes of television before we find out why it felt
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: like why Emily?
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: That was in the previous episode.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: No, we find out in the end I did the
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: rewatch yesterday.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: No. No, But in the previous episode we see that
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Suki makes the phone call to Emily from the kitchen
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: and says, how do you want to do this engagement party?
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: And she didn't let Emily didn't let on that she
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: didn't know.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: She just I forgot about that.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Listen, right, And she listened and said, well, I'll let
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: me think about it and I'll get back to you,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and she hoped the phone. Devastated.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I forgot about that. Yeah, Oh that changes everything. That
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: would have you know, it would have been I should
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: have just also rewatched the previous episode because it would
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: have made my life, no selfishly, because I was just
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: like heartbroken watching it again yesterday, and that would have
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: eased my pain a little bit to like know her
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: motivation and freason, right.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right, So there's yeah, So there's that. And
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I loved the scene with Richard and Rory me too
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: make a nice yeah, and he was so happy, No,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: it was so terrified that he'd ruined that relationship. Yeah,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: it was quite quite a couple of scenes. So you're
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: married in a mother Stacey, I.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Am, and you know what, I married a luke. We
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: joke about this all the time because my husband loves
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: a flannel shirt and he wears a blue Rams baseball
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: cap almost every single day. I'm just like, and he's like,
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: can be kind of curmudgeony. You know, he's the nicest,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: best human being in the world, but like, you know,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: he's got that curmudgeony like vibe to him sometimes, maybe
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: because we have kids. So I'm like, you are luke,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I married a luke.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: They're out there. There's a lot of them out there,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: you know, you just got to find them, all right.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: So do you think do you think that either Emily
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: or Laurela handle this situation poorly or do you understand
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: their perspectives because I don't know. I kind of understand
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: where both of them are coming from, and that's kind
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: of the beauty of the writing. Yeah, I mean, I
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: mean they both had their reasons to be bent, right
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: for sure.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: I just kind of prefer in life a more direct
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: approach to solving problems instead of just like you know, Okay,
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: So since Emily knew and we found out that Emily
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: knew about it, Like it's got it's such a passive
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: aggressive girl move to just be like maybe we'll be
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: in town where it's like, this is your daughter. This
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: isn't the moment for passive aggression. This isn't the moment
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: till just like this isn't this isn't about you. This
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: is also her wedding, right, this is about Laura. I.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: You know, sometimes the parent needs to be recognized that
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: they're the parent. And even if your kid's grown and
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: they're an adult now, they're still the child.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: But I think this episode is about insecurities. Everybody's displaying
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: their insecurities in a way that we've seen before. But collectively,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: it's like every single character is vulnerable and insecure. Look, yeah, Max, Laura,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: La Richard, everybody's insecure. Everybody.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: You should rename this, Rename this episode the warmer. Security
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: needs to be in it.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Hammerson vails the reckoning. Yeah, so who would use dosy
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: expect to take the high road in this situation. You
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: would expect it would be emily right.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Correct, But it wasn't.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Wasn't.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was actually surprised by Laura. I I was
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: surprised by Loralai coming then and asking for Emily's advice,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: you know, her veil like that and extending that olive branch,
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: and that was surprising because like Laurai doesn't always make
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: the best decisions. That was a good one.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: But what a great scene between those two, right.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Also where a Tiara more people need to get married
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: and Tiara's I said it.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Your head's too big for a veil. I wore Tiara.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: That was a devastating line, right, I wore it to you.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: It'd be like me, let's have it. That's her pleading
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: with her to connect. Yes, yeah, you know the writing
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: is so good.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: It really is so good. Did you guys have people
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: with posters off like the side of the No, you
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: guys memorized all of it. But it's so much dialogue
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: and it's so fast. That's so impressive. Could never be me.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: You could do it if it's a muscle, right, it's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: just a muscle that you develop. Yeah, if you've had
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: any kind of real training, then you've done the classics,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: You've done big chunks of dialogue before you know, and
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: you know how to kind of memorize stuff. And look,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: if the writing's really great, it's not that hard to
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: memorize stuff because there's this sort of emotional logic to
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: it and you learn that through your training and you know,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: theater experience and all that stuff. But yeah, this is
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: why this was such, this is such a beautiful show.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: It's because that stuff it flows. So yeah, you know,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: as Lauren says, it's like music. It's just music.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: It's got a rhythm. It's a music, and the only
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: way it works is if you really nail it. And
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: it's just I'm not going to say it was easy
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: to memorize at all, but it wasn't that hard because
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: it if it's bad writing, that's impossible to memorize. That's
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: when you're blowing lines all the time because it's like
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: your brain doesn't hook into the to the dialogue because
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: it's like and that's when people start like calling writers
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: producers singless. And I was thinking, maybe it'd be better
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: if we if I said this or said it this way,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: or you know whatever, right, because you know, they're just
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: trying to impose some logic on it emotionally speaking. But
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: nobody ever had an issue with this writing. That's so cool. Yeah,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: it is, It's really cool. Yeah, otherwise nobody could have
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: memorized a paragraph it was if it was if it
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: was jumbled and lousy writing and it didn't make any sense.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: What do you think about the scene? First of all,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: what do you think about that engagement party on the whole.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: It's pretty spectacular, I mean, incredibly unrealistic. Show me a
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: town where everyone's happy for one person, but follow like yeah, no,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I know, yeah, but like so unrealistic. Who's paying for
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: all of this? There were like crystals in the trees
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: like that, it looked pricey, lovely but expensive, you know,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: everyone coming together to make it happen. Like the two
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: chairs that they sat in, is that like a tradition
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: somewhere that I was unaware of that they had to
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: like sit in these two chairs with their gifts and
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: open gifts. Pretty spectacular though, yeah, it was, it was.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: It was really something. Then Lurlai uh and and even
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Max showing his insecurities going off to Toronto to teach
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: for the summer two months, Why don't you come?
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: And he's like, is it you know? And we're setting
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: it up for those two months because I'm now I know.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: In the next episodes, it's good back it's gonna be gone.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Luke's going to be you know. Yeah, I mean, let
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: me fix your porch, so good your toaster? Yeah, and
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: she goes she goes to the diner. What do you
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: think of that scene? She goes to the diner.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: That was kind of crazy because if I'm at my
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: engagement party and my husband or my future husband is
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: like my fiance, it's like, you know, excuse me for
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: a second, and leaves these two giant thrones to go
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: into the diner and to the girl who's there, and
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: she's like, you know what, I think it would mean
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: a lot for you to be there when like there
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: is like that sexual tension, there's that chemistry, rude beyond shady.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: But like lor liaes shady, Yeah, Lorlai is shady.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: A lot of these people are shady. A lot of
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: these characters are shady.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: Wow wow, So you thought it was it was a
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: shady terms of in terms of character, like a loving
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: woman who was in love with her fiance would never
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: have would.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Never, would never do that. It's like even if you
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: felt that, let's just say you're not in love with
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: your fiance, you know in your brain that you're making
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: a mistake. At least have the respect for your fiance
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: to not do that. Way to day, wait, way to day.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Wait a day, Like.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: You know, oh, man, who's he talking to with that
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: engagement party? Now he's alone on that throne, right without
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: a queen, without a queen, his queen went hither yonder. Yeah,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: am I happy that she did it because as a viewer,
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: that's very satisfying to see, but like not the best
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: move in terms of her character, like her morals, who
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: she is as a character.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: But even those lines that she said to him, it
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: would mean a lot if you were there for me.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Why tell me.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Why you think that's a.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Little you think that's a little cruel?
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: I think, yeah I do. And like if it's because
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: why we all what we all know? Because she has
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: feelings for Luke, Like that's also mean to Luke. Why
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: are you wanting Luke to then see you at your
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: engagement party? We don't want to just torture him. I
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: That's well he does. He shows up and it's like
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: that classic shot with the three little kid ballerinas and
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Luke sitting there.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of mean of LAURAAI.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Wow, all right, the honesty. I love the honesty. Okay,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: so why is she there? What is she seeking from Luke?
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: What do you think? Why did she go in there?
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: What was she after? I don't want to believe that
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: she's mean. Let's just say, let's just for the sake
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: of argument, let's say she's not mean. What was she
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: doing in there? What was she after?
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: I don't think she's cruel or mean. I think she's
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: selfish and so it's really just a and she doesn't
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: think through her what her actions will do to other people,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: or like how it will make other people feel. Like
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: when she leaves Max to go to the diner, I
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: don't think she's thinking this is mean to Max, or
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: like this is not this isn't right. She's just like
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: she she's impulsive and goes on goes off on her
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: urges and and does it. And I don't think when
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: she goes to Luke she's thinking, well, why Luke, that
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: would be hurtful for Luke to see me at my
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: engagement party. She's just thinking about what she wants and
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: she is she does not have that connection with Max
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: that she does with Luke. And I think she's just
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: like so desperate for that connection, but she doesn't.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Know that she is.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: She needs therapy.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: I kind of see it as Rory's going to graduate,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Laura is going to be an empty nester. Rory's going
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: off to college. Laura doesn't really feel she has a life.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: She wants a life, she wants she wants a full life.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: She wants she's, she's, she loves men, She's in love
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: with being in love, right, she wants that feeling. She
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: hasn't really I mean, has she had a successful relationship
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: in her life.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: No, she needs to do some inner work, but.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Right, but she hasn't had a successful relationship in her life,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: has she? No, you can't say that Christopher was as successful.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: That's I mean, it's a great kid came out of it.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: Christopher is the worst, right start him.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Here's this Max guy who seems like, I mean, he's
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: checking all the boxes, isn't he?
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: And he suit her like, you know, in a fairytale sense,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: pursued her, and you know, maybe she's just a bit
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: over her skis, as they say, right, and maybe going
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: into Luke was like get me out from over my skis,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: a little bit, balance me a little. Maybe she goes
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: to him for balance.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's so fair of you to just give
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: her that credit. I just think that she is in.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Love with Luke, but she doesn't does she know it?
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, don't you know when you're attracted to someone
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: and you feel like everyone knows, you know, when you
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: feel that that thing pulling you to someone, you know,
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: give me a break?
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: But isn't she also very very good at compartmentalizing things
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: because she had to do it with her parents in
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: order to get away and survive and keep them away
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: and thrive and have Rory thrive. And now it's a
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: situation where yes, she may be pulled by Luke, but
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: there's this guy Max, and he's kind of perfect and
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: he's really pursuing her. So like, let's do that because
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: that feels really right, and it's not there's nothing wrong
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: with it, even on a subconscious level. My parents will
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: approve of Max because he's an educated he's a man
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: of letters. Yeah okay, and they what can they say?
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Maybe he's not wealthy, so whatt.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think there's something to that where the
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: whole reason she is with Max is just because she
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: thinks that that's what she should be doing. And on paper,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: it's it's right, right, you know, right, but that's not
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: who she is.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: But it looks like they're very attractive to one another, right,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I mean they're they're steaming up the screen there quite
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: a bit.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Sure, but not like you guys. God, you guys are
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: just talking about ketchup and stuff and it still is like,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: oh four play.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: You make a salient point, really really great point. Have
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: you ever been a part of a community like Stars Hollow?
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: You know where do those exist? No? I don't want
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: everyone knowing my business all the time. I only know
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: like three of my neighbors. Give me a break, No way,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: I need some privacy.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: That's La. Are you in La?
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: I'm in La?
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, it's pretty typical. It's it's kind of unusual
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: of your neighbors. Man, it's like those people hide out
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: actually know. I knew when I lived in La, I
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: knew my neighbors really well. In fact, the people across
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: the street, we would spend a lot of time at
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: their house and vice versa and parties and things like that.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: They were fun. Depends on who your neighbors.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: Are, right for sure? Have you ever lived in a
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: town like Stars Hollow?
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Kinda yeah, I kind of grew up in a place
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: is like that.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Really where everyone just like knew each other?
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And so when you like were walking down the store,
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: it wasn't.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: It wasn't as small as stars Hollowing, Right, it was bigger, Right,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: it wasn't. It wasn't rural. And I think Star's Hollow
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: is a little bit rural maybe, yeah, okay, but no, no, no,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: this this this town was in the middle of a
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: big population center, but it was it was a small
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: town definitely.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Did you just like always see people walking down the
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: street that you knew? Yeah, and did you cross the
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: street to avoid them?
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: No?
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: I would sometimes I just don't want to. I don't
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: want to talk, you know.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Well, okay, so let me ask you this. Did you
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: find yourself more team Emily or team lorel Eye when
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: it comes to this mother daughter drama?
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, normally I'm team Emily on everything normally, Okay, in
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: this situation, I relate more to Laura LII, which makes
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: me be more team Lareli because we all just want
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: to relate when we're watching something, right, right.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Right, All right, okay, good, all right, Now we're going
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: to focus on you, Stacy. Oh okay, that's about it.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: If I was a Star's Hollow resident, where would I
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: be working? All?
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Right? Now I have some questions. Okay, okay, here we go.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: How many times have you watch Gilmore Girls? Oh, all
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: the way through?
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: All the way through? Two times? Because I just did
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: it in the last few years, a couple of years.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: So what's your what's your favorite season from.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: The first season?
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Me too, so far.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's nothing like the first season.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: What do you think made it so special? Just because
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: of the newness of it?
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: I think it was the perfect storm of a million things.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: It's like, you have all of these interesting characters. You
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: have the writing and the dialogue that's so quick, so funny,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: so witty, and then you have this like environment that's
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: not what like any of us are used to, and
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: it seems so comfy and quaint and charming. And then
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: you add the seasons changing onto that, and you're like,
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: what now I get to see like Autumn, and I
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: get to see Christmas, Diamond Stars Hollow, and then like,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: to me, the seasons are also like main characters in
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: the show. I just think it was the perfect storm
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: of like everything all at once.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Right, would you would you think Christmas. If we did
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: a Christmas special, you'd be there for that.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Could you make me an extra? I will act this
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: out of that role. Give me no lines, but let
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: me stand. Let me be an extra.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, right now, there's no talk. I'm just you know, well,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: you said something in an interview, Amy people are talking
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: Let's make it go viral, right now, Let's make the people.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: You know what, when people hear things talking about things,
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: they that's how manifesting start, it is, you know, that's
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: how you put it out into the universe.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: When the brainwash sync up and it gets the coal
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: into the subconscious collective. Yeah, then things can really happen.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Uh huh. What character can you relate to most on
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: the show? Oh?
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: Well, relate to most is different than favorite. Oh I mean, okay,
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: so Emily is my favorite. But I guess I relate
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: to Laureli the most, which is, like I don't like
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: to admit because loralai Is is not the best. You know,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: I love watching her, but she's very selfish and chaotic
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: and makes a lot of poor decisions over and over
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: and over again.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Just like we all do.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's why I relate. I see, like all the
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: worst parts of myself in lore Line.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: Who would you want to be friends with from in
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: real life?
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: About Emily?
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you want you want to hang out with them?
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I want to hang out with Emily. I want to
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: go to fancy lunches. I want to. I want to.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: I aspire to be like Emily, you know, just like
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: in my estate, just like with someone to cook for me.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: And I have courses in my dinner every night, Like
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: I have a bread basket at my dinner table, a
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: bread basket within the salad course. That it's goals.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: I you know, I think you're on your way to that.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: I mean you seem to be.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of kicking ass and taking names.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Thanks. Uh.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: Is there a character that you're not a fan of?
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Dean. No, I really don't like Dean. I
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: don't like Christopher at all. I think Jess at this
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: whole debate over like whether it's Dean Jess or Logan.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Logan is the only answer. Okay, Jess was so awful
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: to her, Like we forget like the people when people
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: are like, I'm team Jess just because he's broody and
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: cool and like understands where he more than Dean does
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: like that doesn't make him the good guy. That doesn't
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: make him a good partner for Rory, Like he literally
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: left her on a bus, like and didn't say anything
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: to her. You guys, Team Jess people, are you mental?
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: Like that? I can't get down with that.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: If you have a favorite moment or a line from
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: the show Man.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I wish I would have thought about
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: that one ahead of time. So much, there's so much
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: right right.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: We'll come back to it. All right, let's talk about you. Okay,
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: you got a lot happen, and you get a new baby,
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: best selling book news and now season two vander pump Villa. Yeah,
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: what can you tease about this next season? Oh?
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Well, it's really fun because it takes place. We all
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: go to Italy and I got to bring my kids
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: and my husband and we stayed in a twelfth century
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: medieval castle in Italy and where or Viedo. Okay, it's
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: this small town that's like on a plateau and the
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: castle is right outside the town. It was like incredible
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: to experience being there for a summer and just like
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: immerse yourself into that town and everything. And it's about
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: a staff of people young you know, young adults, you know,
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: twenty somethings that are just the staff at this castle
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: and they're hosting all of these different events and these
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: guest groups are coming in and it's just a wild,
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: fun show with just such a beautiful backdrop that sounds magical. Actually,
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: it really was like to live in a medieval castle, right, Like,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: what am I ever going to get that chance again?
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: It was kind of amazing.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: So what do you think makes vander Pump Villa feel
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: different from your vander Pump Rules days.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, we're not you know, they're not focusing on
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: our you know, shitty apartments in West Hollywood that we
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: used to live and that's it's it's a completely different setting.
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: That's I think that's what makes it so unique is
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: there aren't that many reality shows out there where you
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: you see this like beautiful historic setting and this a
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: different country and all of these people going to that
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: country and then to see like almost like it's kind
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: of like Downton abbeyish where you see the upstairs downstairs,
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: you know, you see both at the same time, where
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: it's like you see what the guest groups are experiencing.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: These VIP guests and you see all the luxury, but
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: then you also see what goes into making those events
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: happen and those guests happy. So it's just like a
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: whole blend of everything.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you, how, how do you think Laura
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Gilmore would fit into the vander Pump Villa or even
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: reality TV for that matter.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: She'd be such a great reality star. She would be,
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: really would. She's so unhinged, she's so uninched. She just
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: doesn't give a which is like, really, that's what makes
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: a great reality star. You you gotta give, Like it's
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: impossible to give zero Fox, but like maybe you could
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: give like a few, but you really got to not care,
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: and she doesn't. So like she would fully excel on
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: a reality show. Now, I don't. I feel like on
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: Vanner Pump Villa, if she was a staff member, she
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: get fired halfway through.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Right, Who do you think is scarier, Emily Gilmore or
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: Lisa vander Pump.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: I would have said Lisa back in the day when
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: I worked for her one, But nowadays we kind of
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: have like a buddy relationship. I'm older now I don't
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: work for her, so we're friends, so I'm not I'm
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: not like terrified of her anymore. I'm gonna go with
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: Emily Gilmore.
