• 6:26
  Speaker 1: eleven twelve. I'll be there, so check that out anyway.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: So I was so particularly interested in this episode because
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: David Rosenthal has taken a lot of heat because he's
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the one that inherited the show season seven. Interesting, he's
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: been getting lamb baseded or or you know, taking the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: blame because the tone was off and this was often
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of fans, you know, thought that Stevens season
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: seven wasn't as strong as as a previous season. So
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: I was particularly curious to see this episode because he
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: wrote it. And I gotta tell you something, Amy, I
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: thought it was one of the top five episodes. It
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: was fantastic on every level that I agree, seamless and great,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: and I was rolling all over the carpet as I
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: was doing some ab work.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Okay, fabulous.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I had to stop on several times just to start
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: roaring laughing.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: I feel the same. I thought, I have one scene
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: that I'll criticize. There's one scene that I just thought
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Rory was off and I can explain maybe why. So
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: I was like taken out of it in that scene. Otherwise,
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I thought every single part of this episode was awesome.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the monologues were and I think it's one of
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: the first. And I know the fans think Luke has
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: some funny lines here and there, and he's funny and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: all that, and the rants and all that. I've never
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: been sort of LAURELEI Gilmour funny before I had. I
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: think I did a couple of times pop a few
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: lines in here that actually made me laugh out loud,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: like that's that was really great.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: It's funny to say that, because I thought this particular
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: episode was funnier. They're all funny, right, and obviously when
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: the Paladinos right, it's really funny. This one is up there.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: There are a lot of lines in the episode that
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: are hilarious.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: It was fantastic.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: I totally agree.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So David Rosenthal, if you're listening to this, kudos to you.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: You didn't deserve to take that level of criticism. But
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: the one thing our fans are they are honest, and
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that's why we love them. And but I tell you,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: let's you know, let's keep it real here. This guy
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: hit it out of the park with this episode. This
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: is one of the great Gilmour right.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: The Gatelanka is a great addition to funny stuff because
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: right in that first scene, the dog's in the chair.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: First of all, you have to bring the muffins over.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: It's all the boys are in the kitchen, everyone's getting
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: their breakfast. The whole thing's got a lot of movement,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of Right from the start, You're like, is
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: that a dog in the chair. That's Paul Anker's chair.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: And I was laughing right from then.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: And even the heap alien stuff was hysterical.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Oh my god.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: And I never found that particularly funny. I you know,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I thought it was cute. I thought it was charming.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: But as far as you know, making me laugh out lot,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I mean Gill's line to the pastor.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: It's Sebastian Bach.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: He is so what I mean. But the dialogue was hysterical.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: So you know, if Jesus came back, he'd be hooking
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: up with you. First, dude, you're because you're awesome. I
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: mean what I just roared.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: Sebastian Bach is so awesome when he's driving that van, huh.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: I was literally like, First of all, it looked like
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: he was coming out of the window. I was like,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: these people are not properly buckled, Like they are.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Not buckled in more than one folks.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Those those old volkswagons were like that where the window
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: was right like the driver's was.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Very close to the steering wheel and it's kind of
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: straight awesome. It was great, What a great episode. I'm
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: actually going to watch it again after we get off here,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: because I just I missed a lot of stuff so.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Fast. Even the bit about TJ as over the top
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: as it is, I actually believe it, Like that's what's
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: so funny that Lorelei and Luke are so sweet that
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: they actually probably would pay that's a lot of money too.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I will say they're paying a lot of money to
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: TJ to make him think he's the contractor and it
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: fully tracks like that was hysterical, and him going around
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: and telling everybody what to do and paying Tom extra
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: to not reveal that he's actually the I'm dead, I'm dead.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: The mystic hamra bit was classic.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Oh there's a funny line that Luke has right from
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: the top about but you're related to him or just
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: because Liz married him, Like.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: It's like so good.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: The whole incident with the shower, Okay, so Lorlai gets
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: caught by all the guys in the shower and she's
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: like Joe Pete slim Billy had a really straight shot
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: teddy too. And then when the guy gives you the
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: the nod mm hmmm, the other like construction guy gives
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: you the nod like yeah, way to go, And then
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: she had the line, no one sees the goods but you.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I wonder if they made a reference to that Dustin
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Hoffman movie that he made early in his career and
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the English countryside where he and his wife, his beautiful wife.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: He's a college professor or something, his beautiful wife played
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: by I think Britt Eklund, I'm not sure, Okay, okay,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And so they were having some more done on the
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: house or outside the house, and it was a very
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: very dark drama about these handyman who who broke into
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the house and no.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and whoa I've never heard of that.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Did horrible things to the wife, Oh gosh, and all this.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: So I'm one of the glad glad you brought I
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: brought that up, aren't you. Everybody? Just to lighten them
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: on a little bit, We're like.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: It's the funniest episode ever.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Let's because because the reason the reason I thought about
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: it was because you know, the juxtaposition right right right,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Luke and how he was treating the workers. And there
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: in his house now and she's putting on a show
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: and they've seen her nake in the whole thing, and
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: it's just such a safe world right where it's the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: opposite of the Dustin Hoffins.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: And there's amazing face acting in this whole episode too.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: They call it face acting. People to understand different, Is
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: there a different category between regular acting and face acting.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Because it's all acting so correct?
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: I understand, we we but we get acting from body language,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: we get it from vibe, we get it from tone.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Like myself, okay, considers acting talking No face acting is
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: no talking.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense, I know.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: But just go with the face acting because you've got
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: some great face acting. There's the whole there's good face
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: acting here with the that the boys saw her naked,
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: and then there's some really good face acting, which we'll
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: get to later in that sort of monologue that Laura
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: I has about picking up the dog, trying to convince
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: you to take the dog. Oh, the paul Anka stuff,
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: And this is amazing.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: You know how you do good face acting?
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: You act? No, you listen, Yeah, you've taught us that before.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Good acting is good listening. You've gotta you have to
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: listen to your partner, your scene part You gotta just
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: listen to them, listen to what they say. I guarantee
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the rest takes care of itself. You don't have to
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: do anything. You just listen. You act with your ears.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Everybody listening to this podcast interacting.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: It's not facing excited the head acting.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Everybody right now. I was like, no, wonder, Amy's such
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: a terrible actor because I'm so bad at listening. They
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: definitely don't like when I interrupt. But I don't mean
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: to interrupt. I get excited in the conversation. So I
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: love the ping ponging.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: What did I tell you from day one? What did
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: I tell you I wanted from this podcast?
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: Have fun?
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and play jazz, play.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: Jazz, thank you. Yes, be a little bit behind.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: The music, be a little bit ahead of the music.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: It never be all.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: I love that descriptor for it.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's how I love that. I love it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: I love that. I love that. So it's like we're
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: the Miles Davis of the I think we.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Have such a good time talking about these episodes. So
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: I will have one. I have a couple criticisms of
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: this episode, one being come on, Emily, you know the
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: difference between a blueberry and a raspberry. They don't even
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: look alike.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: So that was a little okay, okay.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: So we go to the scene where they're having breakfast,
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: and look, I think Rory should go back to Yale.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: It's ridiculously insane that she's not at Yale. And we
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: can talk about that later, but I still like their scenes.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: I love the poolhouse is the most amazing living space
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: for Rory. It's freaking beautiful. I want to eat breakfast
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: with Emily every day. That being said, she should go
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: back to Yale, but I love that she's talking with
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: Emily about constants and the dar and Rory's on the
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: inside and there is there are there's some fun to
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: what they're doing. I just wish it was summer and
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: this was summer only and that she went back to Yale.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: But I'll still enjoy the whole thing. So the nursing home,
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: oh oh Graves. That scene. Yeah, yeah, it's precious, like
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: it's literally precious. But anyway, we'll talk more about that.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: So another sort of through line in this episode is
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Paris and Paris and Lorealized lunches and how she's terrorizing
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: everyone at the Dragonfly. So what did you what do
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: you kind of think about that? And Michelle being so.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I just say it was some of Michelle's best stuff
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: that I have seen. What he did, the he did,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: he did the sound effects. What did he do?
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: He did some sound the Wizard of Oz music I
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: can't do. I don't have the tune in my head.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: So do I feel some ice called wind coming down
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: the path? I mean? This guy? The dialogue was so great.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: It was so funny.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: Is she gone? The whole thing is so funny. And
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: then there's also that moment. The thing I love about
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: Gilmore girls in this episode in particular, they don't overseell
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: the joke, right like when he's doing the Wizard of Oz.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: They don't mention it further, just that thing. And did
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: you see the part where all the servers come running
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: into the kitchen like together.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: I saw. I was watching episode. Yeah, I saw it.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: I thought all of it was.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Great, great great detail, great humor, great stuff. David Rosenthal
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: did a great job, and.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I understand why Laura l I. Okay, so we're going
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: a little out of order today, but forgive us we're
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: off the rails. But the part where we sorry Paris
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: and Lourlai are having lunch, I think it's the second
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: line un and Paris talks about talking to Rory and
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: that she's got this job, and immediately Laura is like
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: what what job? Well, she was at her office? What office?
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: And they have that sort of back and forth, and
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: then Paris kind of gets upset, like are you only
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: having lunch with me to have get intel? And then
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: of course Laura's like, no, no, no, we can have
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: lunch anytime. It's all pretty real, like I understand Lauraai
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: why she's having lunch with Paris, and I get why
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: Paris wants that connection to LAURAAI, and that Laurlai wants
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: to know what's going on with Rory and this is
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: kind of a mess. And she finally says to Luke,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: I'm not picking a wedding date until things are sorted out.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Like there's the whole episode Hilary's with actual emotion and heaviness.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that bugged me a little bit. I thought that
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: really one flaw in the episode.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because it was too out of nowhere and very
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: much out.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Of nowhere, And boy, that hit him hard and he
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: covered you.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: So I have a theory on it. My take on
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: it is very similar, and I this is interesting. I
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: think the reason you didn't love it is the same
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: reason I love the proposal, because I think what's happening
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: is she's staring at you as you say, this is
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: what happened to the dog. The dog ate the chocolate.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I had to carry the dog that was closed. I
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: went to his house. The dog barfed. I fed him
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: water with a spoon, like all the things that you did,
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Very similar to when you're talking about we're going to
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: solve this problem with Rory. We'll go to Yale. We'll
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: drag her there, you know, and she's staring at you
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: with so much love. It's when she realizes, like, I
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: love this guy so much. This guy puts his entire
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: life aside for my kid, for my dog. So that's
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: when she wants to say to you, as soon as
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: things are good with Rory and I will pick a
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: wedding date. Because she doesn't want you to wonder why
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: she hasn't done it.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Has it done?
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: What picked the wedding date? So you, guys, because remember
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: it's acknowledged earlier in the etshole.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: That is a considerate act I did.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: I think she's saying, hey, I'm not picking the wedding
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: date for anything that has to do with you and me.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: It's because I want to be good with Rory for
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: our wedding. And I actually think Luke's like, I got it,
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: thank you, know almost, thank you for talking about this,
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: so I know why we haven't talked about it, and
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: I don't have to bring up the elephant in the room.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: And then he gets it. This is so big and
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: special to her. She wants her kid there, she wants
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: to be good with her kids. So I see why
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: it irritated you, because the same reason the proposal irritates you,
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: because you're seeing it from a different perspective. For me,
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: I'm seeing Loralai looking at you, going, this guy just
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: carried my dog like it was a baby all over
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: and held it while it vomited all over and this
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: guy is everything. Same thing as though, will you marry me?
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: In my opinion, same scene, different day.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a beautiful moment. Anyway, Hey Suzanne, how
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: you doing.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Hello?
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Sorry internet catastrophe over here.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: It's never happened to us. It's just I don't know what.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Jus Anne had my back? Did you hear what I
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: was saying?
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: I heard the end of it, So fill me in
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: on the first part.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Just that Laurelized has an excuse to delay setting a
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: wedding date. What do you think? What do you think? Yeah, yeah,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: you know, because I want to be right with Rory
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and all that, and you know there's you can make
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: an argument for that, sure, But how'd you feel about it?
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: I can see kind of both sides of it, because
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: I can see why she would want everything to be
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: right with Rory before actually getting married.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know that.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: That is enough to postpone setting the date, like you
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: could say, seventy a year in the future, right and
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: make sure everything kind of works herself out before then.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: So I definitely agree with her that she should have
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: that because I couldn't imagine her having a wedding to
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: Luke while she's not speaking to Rory, Like you can't
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: not have Rory at your well, Okay, I don't want
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: to have any spoilers, but why I'm not going to
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: continue that thought. But she wouldn't in a million years
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: have a wedding to Luke without Rory being there, So
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: I can see that side of it, but I don't
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: know that it would be enough to delay setting the date.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: But I think maybe what I'm reading between the lines here,
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: Scott is you're thinking that she's trying to postpone, like
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: she's trying to delay being together with Luke, and this
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: is a convenient reason to do that. I don't know
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: if I would go that far.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I get why Scott sees it because it's very
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: similar to the proposal and why that wasn't your dream proposal.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: It lands on you a little badly where I see
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: her love for him because of the dog, and so
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: she is saying, hey, this is why I haven't done it.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: It has nothing to do with her not being thrilled
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: about this engagement, it's my take.
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I can see that too, right, Like she's saying,
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: this is why I'm delaying.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you know what I think this comes
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: down to. It comes down to perception of reality, and
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: that I ask you, honestly and everybody out there, do
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: you think a show is stronger when we know there's
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: two clear leads in this show, Rory and Laura Lai.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: That's whose po V we're taking this journey with. Really
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: we are not going to take the le Luke po
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: V on this journey. Ever. It will always be, as
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: you know, a side hustle. Right, He's never gonna he's
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: never gonna drive his own narrative. He's never ever, no
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: other character in that show is going to get the
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: POV point of view from.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really fascinating question.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: But in this instance, I think it was a time
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: when maybe a Luke po V would have actually made
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: the show better. I'm not saying that for every episode,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: or even the majority of the episodes. I'm saying in
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: this instance, maybe the narrative could have shifted and the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: po V could have shifted a lit little bit toward Luke,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: where you know, we get to see it from a
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: fresh perspective. I really thought thought it was a missed opportunity.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying that I want
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: to be the master of the show and it's got
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: to be all about me. But I think the character
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: earned it, earned a POV on this one, and they
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: never gave it to him. So that's all I'm saying.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: No, it's a it's a really interesting thought because when
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: you said that, I realize I only watched this show
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: from Lorealize perspective. I don't even watch it from Rory's
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: I'm always Lorealized perspective. And because I like her so
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: much and I want to be her essentially, I'm good
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: with that because even when I watch Rory's stuff, I'm
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: watching it to me sort of Morelaurli. So I don't
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: that's my take. Was like, even with it being Gilmore Girls,
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: it's always to me Laura La M. Yeah, it's just
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: a different show if we saw it from Luke's perspective.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: What do you think, Susanna said, did I propose something
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: preposterous and off base the universe into a spiral of hell?
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: I think you're right, And I think we did get
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: a little bit of that in the last episode with
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: the whole conversation on the roof and how he's telling
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: her like, Hey, I know this is the thing between
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: you and Rory, but I'm caught in the middle because
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: he look both of them and he wants both of
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: them to be happy and both of them to have
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: their needs met, And nobody was thinking about how Luke
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: was in the middle of this. So I think we
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: did get a little bit of that in the last episode.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: But I think maybe you're right about the wedding piece
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: of it. You know, we could have gotten a little
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: more of his viewpoint about the the prospect of marriage
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: and when that was going to happen and that.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: Piece of it.
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: So I can see that point of view, but I
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: also agree with Amy. I tend to watch it from
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: loraalized point of view. Also, just because I was already
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: the first time I watched my show, the show, I
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: was already forty, so I wore that like in that
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: sixteen year old, you know, high school slash college student mode.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: So yeah, it was I was. I think I was
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: thirty almost thirty, So I always related to her much more,
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: which is why my crush on Logan is kind of fascinating.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: But I think it's because Zukri is my age. He
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: played younger. Speaking of I have such a comment about
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Zukri in this.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Well, look not to be labor the point. Let's let's
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: get to it. You know, we don't want to stay
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: on there.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: No, it's really interesting.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought i'd introduce it a little bit, but
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: you know, let's move on and continue with the episode.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: So we Okay, let's talk about Rory at the DAR
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: a little bit. I think I like it, but I
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: don't like it, And especially at the end there, I'm like, oh,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: this is just sad. They're all at Yale and she's
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: at the DAR. I like it that she had the office.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: I love that she's now, you know, taking control of
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: the community service too. She's like the big leader of
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: the community service, which leads me back to why are
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: we even here? Because she she is a leader, she
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: is successful. Why does she care what Mitcham said? It
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: doesn't make sense, like but whatever. The one thing I
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: didn't like I thought the Constant stuff was a little
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: bit mean. The whole thing, the spying on Constance, the
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: woman at the DAR that Emily doesn't like, and her
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: pill like the Altoyd's box that was filled with reals.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Why do you think it was mean?
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: It was a little too gossipy and mean for me, Like,
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: why are we judging this poor Constant woman. I get it,
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: maybe she's terrible, but like, I don't want to judge
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: her Altoid's box with pills and it just felt a
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: little I got the gist and that it was funny
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: and gossip on the side.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I think this is where somebody steps in and says, hey,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: come on, it's just fun the TV show.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know, it's a little it was a joke.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: It was a jokey joke thing that was that I
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: don't know played out for me. It's it matched the
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: spirit of the writing and the show, this particular show,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: because it was easy, breezy, you know. That's what I
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: loved about what David Rosenthal did. He he really interwove the
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: drama with the humor and it quite a seamless way,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: I agree, And it really made the humor pop even
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: more because it didn't you know, you didn't have to
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: stand in the drama line because now you're getting drama,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: and you didn't have to stand in the humor line
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: because now you're getting humor interwoven. He married the two
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: together in a way that you rarely say. So that's
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: that's impressive. Feat.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess I want to hear what Suzanne's perspective is.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: For me, Rory's getting a little too sucked into Emily's world,
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: even the negative of it. So it was just I
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: think she's getting just hooked into this sort of ladies
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: who lunch with money thing. She's a little too comfortable
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: with it for me. I mean, she really is.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: Emily's due over. And we've seen over the past couple
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: seasons that Rory fits into that Emily lifestyle pretty readily,
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Like she kind of fights it a little bit at first,
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: but she pretty much enjoys it, and we really see
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: in this episode that she is kind of underneath she's
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: still that same Rory that was, you know, a go getter,
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: and she's taken charge of all the people that are
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: picking up trash, and you know, she's gone from fighting
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: with the people to you know, directing them where to
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: pick up trash and what supplies they need and all that.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: So that was hilarious, hilarious.
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: And one thing about that trash scene, I noticed that
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: when the one girl says that they're going to go
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: for pizza, the girls are going to go for pizza,
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: and the guy walks up and says, I want to
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: go and she says, are you a girl? That I
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: couldn't remember why that guy looked so familiar to me,
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: and so I looked it up.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: He wasn't.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: He was in a previous episode. He was a children's student.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: Now in my brain I'm thinking, okay, that's another children's
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: student that committed a felony and now he's doing community
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: serv Oh my god. I think it's supposed to be
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: a different character. But it just made me laugh because
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: I'm like, something funny together in my head.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Good catch.
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: Wow, guy looks so familiar.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Go get another call from the lawyer again.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Well, speaking of little tidbits, I have a tidbit. Okay,
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: So the scene where Paris calls Rory at work. So
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: first Rory's on the phone. Do you know what I'm
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: gonna say, Susana. Rory's on the phone with like a customer,
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know what you'd call him, a dar potential lady.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: And she's talking to the lady and she puts her
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: on hold. Okay, then she does never went back to her.
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: She just hung the phone up. I was like, is
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: that intentional that she's supposed to be hanging let me
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: put you on hold, flick. Maybe that's the joke, Maybe
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: that's the thing that it's supposed to be, like, let
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: me put you on hold. But then she hangs up
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: on her, because this lady clearly is not a daughter
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: of the revolution, right, But I was like, either that
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: or she's so bad at her job. She forgot to
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: go back and get her. But I think now, I
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: think you're right, Susanne. It's that she didn't put her
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: on hold. She just said she wasn't hung up on her.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: That's actually not what I thought you were going to say.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: What was it?
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: I thought I thought you were going to talk about
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: Rory Gilmore sex book.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, that was funny too.
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: Ye did anybody else google that? Because I did?
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: And the no tell us? What is it that somebody.
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Apparently bought that domain? And if you go to Rory
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: Gilmour sexbot dot com there's a little like thirty second
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: video it's pretty hilarious.
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: Still, that's amazing. I love people that are like brilliantly.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: Probably not a lot of competition for it.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: What's website where you can buy the domains? Go Daddy? Yeah,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: oh gosh, you're just literally renting something from go Daddy
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: that's free. I don't know whatever. So okay, I have
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: to talk about it. Let's talk about the scene with
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Rory and Logan. So first of all, darling when Logan
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: comes into the nursing home, the dancing is darling. The
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: the funny lines, this like the whole that whole scene
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: is adorable and makes me like wish like I said
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: that it was just a summer and this was her
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: summer jobs, because I love seeing her in that element.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: It's just when I go, oh my gosh, she's doing
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: community service because she stole a yacht.
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: I thought it was kind of unprofessional though, like her
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: she's making kind of at work and then her boyfriend
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: comes in and he's like smooching all over her. I
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: don't know, I.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: I thought of that, But I also thought it was
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: so cute because I'm like, here he is and with
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: all these grannies, and it's so cute. The grannies and
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: the granpies are all having such a good time with
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: the day thing and they don't want their you know,
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: orange juice break. It was really cute. Fast forward to
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: the scene of Rory and Logan. Obviously they've just done it.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Or you could you could use the term post coital
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: I did. They've just done it.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: I would say it they did a Mather on the couch. Literally,
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what they're talking about, because all
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: I saw was Matt Zuker's arm pit.
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: I can honestly say I was not paying attention to
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: the armpits in that scene.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: No, what Amy is referring to is the is the
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: the curvature of his muscular shoulders and.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Truth, truth, that just me truth, but also just this
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: was his arm the whole scene. And I'm just like, bro,
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: all I I can't even see your face, Like anyway,
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: That's the only scene that I thought Rory was a
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: bit Why do I say this? That almost like Alexis
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: was reading the script instead of being Rory, because she's like,
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to go blue, Like I just was like.
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, when we were talking a couple episodes ago about
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: her voice, this completely highlighted that. For me, I was
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: not a fan of this scene at all. I think
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: you know, I I think Alexis is great, but this
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: was not her best work. And I agree this was
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: not Rory's best work either. She sounded kind of spoiled
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: and entitled, and she's when she said what did she say?
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: She's like, I've got my work, I've got my new pad.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: I'm like your grandma's poolhouse. Tell your new bad break.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: Dude, agree that scene. I was like, you sound like
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: an income poop, like you were at Yale and you're
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: saying to your boyfriend, Like, I don't mind if you
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: talk about Yale. I've got my work, Like, what is she? Yeah?
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: I agree, that's the point though, isn't that the point
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: that she's that she's she's a bit delusional, she's not
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: really seeing, you know, kidding herself, kidding her self. She
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: doesn't realize how far she's fallen.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: I think that was you know, mitcham Huntsberger really you know,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: laid the gloves on her, knocked her out, and this
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: is the result.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: So yeah, Yeah, I think you're right, Scott, because we
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: that scene was so.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: I empathized with her often. If it was supposed to
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: make us feel sorry for a root for maybe it
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: didn't achieve that for y'all, but I understood what they
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: were going for, so I forgave it.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for me, I think you're I think you're right, Scott.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: I think I didn't realize that when I was watching it,
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: because I wrote down insane, insane, and then I wrote
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: not my favorite scene. And I think maybe that was intentional.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: We're supposed to think what is wrong with her? You
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: sound like an idiot?
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it was just to show that she
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: really is in denial. She's trying to convince herself as
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: much as she's trying to convince Logan that.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Hey, I moved on.
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: Everything's good. And I think I think that I agree.
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: That was the point of that scene.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: And she did say a couple of times that she
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: was not going back to Yale, and it sounded like forever,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: I'm never going on.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: Totally, which also was insane, which yeah, Yale was a
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: good time, but good time in my life, but I'm
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: not going back. And it's like, what are you talking about?
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: Like you're at Yale woman, Like who go and take
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: take a different career path? Like what are you? It's
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: so infuriated.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Her entire life. She was preparing to enter the Ivy League,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: her entire life. That was the entire focus of this show.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: That was laurelized modus operendi from the time that Rory
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: was born and here she is, you know what was
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: she top of her class Chiltern and then she gets
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: admitted to She did get admitted to Harvard, didn't she Harvard?
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: And do you know what kind of grades you have
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: to have to get admitted to to all of the
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: Ivy League? Like they all want you. So we're talking
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: about somebody who is very, very advanced academically and can
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: compete on that level and beyond, and she just I
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: know it's it's it's tragic that she just throws it
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: all the way. I know it bothers me too.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: It's so really irritated.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: So do we think that's good for the show. Here's
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: here's the debate. Here's the debate. So we want her
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: back at Yale because we want to get the show
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: back on track because we don't recognize the show anymore.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: Is this an element of that of that voice in
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: your head that says, hey, this is Gilmore Girls. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: love Gilmore Girls. I love anything they do, but man,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: this this facocta storyline. You know what I mean? It's
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: like get her back to Yale, like the fans instinctively
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: knowing something's really off here in terms of the storytelling.
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: I think that's definitely a theme that is present throughout
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: the fan base. I think a lot of people have
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: trouble interesting seven. And Tarna even said when we started
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: season six, She's like, this is at the point where
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: I stopped my rewatch. Oh, Like I think a lot
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: of people do that because there's the tone definitely.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: Changes, oh boy, at.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: This point in the run of the show. So it
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: does definitely kind of lose its luster for a lot
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: of people. And I don't know, obviously, I don't have
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: any insight into what Amy and Dan were thinking in
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: terms of, you know, their their trajectory with the show,
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: because I know there were contract negotiations and conversations happening,
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: you know, behind the scenes that we don't know about,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: so I don't know how much of it was intentional,
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: but there definitely is a change in the way still
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: about the show.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: So what you're saying is, at this point in Dan
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: and Amy's career, they were going for the two year deal,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: which is standard on a hit show, because that's what
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Aaron Sorkin got for West Wing, and that's what other
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: successful writer showrunners get when their shows have to be
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: renewed after six seasons. That's a really good thing for
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: a network because so many of their shows tank, and
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: so the successful shows pay for the failures, and there's
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: twenty five failures for everyone hit, you know, something like that.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: So you're right, Susan. So you're saying, Susan that you
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: think that Amy and Dan potentially sort of lit a
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: match to this show storytelling wise and destroyed one of
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: the characters or maimed one of the main characters because
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: they were like, we'll show Warner Brothers they want to
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: mess with us and not offer us a proper deal,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: a proper respect. Well, this is what we'll do.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: I think that's definitely true by the end end of
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: season six. I don't know what point that started, though,
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: but I definitely think and this is just my Suzanne
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: French's opinion, nobody has to agree with it, but I
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: think that the end of season six, which obviously we're
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: not at yet, I think that was intentional what they did,
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: because they knew they weren't coming back.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: And they were either kind of checked out or intentionally
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: through it. One of the two, right, or a combination.
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know, But I don't know at what point
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: in season six that started, Like, I don't know if
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: we're already seeing that now or that's that stuff started
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: happening later.
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: The only reason I don't know if we're seeing it
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: yet is I do have when she goes to breakfast
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: with Logan and she's on campus and she sees the
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: girl giving the tour to the new students. My thing
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: was like, oh sweet, she's kind of longing for that gat. Yeah,
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: so I thought, Okay, their intention doing this knowing we're
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: going to get her back to Yale eventually, they want
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: us to not like her at home, meaning at the
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: Gilmore's Like, I feel like they're still showing us, Hey,
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: we're just showing a trajectory of Rory that she's had
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: this downworld spiral. But she's starting to think like, oh,
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: I'm a little jealous of that girl giving the tour.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: And then I think it's very clear when we're at
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: the end Norraia's got the weird short bangs at the DAR.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: I think we're left to say, what is she doing?
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: And we know it now and she's starting to know it. Yeah,
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: she knows this, I agree with that's ridiculous.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: So Susanna, that's interesting, Amy, Susanne, So you feel that
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: that could be not to you know, beat a head
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: horse here, but that could be intentional as a reaction
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: to negotiations that weren't bearing fruit for the Palladinos.
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, like I said, I wasn't there. I don't know,
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know them personally, but I can see how
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: that would have come through in their writing that maybe
• 44:08
  Speaker 4: they start to steer the story into a certain direction,
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: right because they know that they may not be coming back.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: So I know that, you know, the show runner, the
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: showrunner studio a relationship is very precarious because you know,
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: the studio since they're financing this, right, you know, they're
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: they're in the they're in the in the red for
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: five years before they sell this into syndication and then
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: they start making some money off of it. But man,
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: they go their deficit spending for four or five years
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: and we're talking, you know, it's one hundred million, it's
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty million dollars. They're in you know,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: they're in debt over one show, so before they start
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: getting any return. So it's a big risk. So they
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: do give notes to show runners like we we want
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: to see these narrative, we want to see these storylines.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: How about this? How about Rory does this? How about
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: Logan does that? How about you know this or that?
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: And the relationship between studio and a showrunner can can
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: blow up very easily if these notes aren't incorporated, or
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: if they're if they're rejected in such a way as
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: to offend the studio or you know, so you know
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: again we should try to get them on.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: You know, it's like, oh my god, that'd be amazing.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: So I have a couple of notes and questions for
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: you guy.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Let's un answered questions for that but interesting, interesting topic,
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: you know, So.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about Hep Alien for a second. Did that
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: beard come out of nowhere? I was like, does he
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: have a beard all of a sudden, Zach.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: Well, I think they've been for a couple of months.
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: They Yeah, they can't afford toothpaste.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: So if you can't affords Yeah.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: And I love that she managed to squire away nine thousand.
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: That's a lot so they can. Oh what's squire Away?
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Just not squire Yeah, that has nothing.
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: I think you made it up.
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: Now moving forward, when you talk about the squirreling Way money,
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: you say squire So from here to four it's squire
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: Away money.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: So I like, I liked I with you, Scott. Like
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: the hip Alien stuff was actually good. They sort of
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: sounded better than ever. The van scene is funny the
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: whole thing. So I was I was a big heap
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: Alien fan in this.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: Hey everyone, it's Sophia Bush, host of the podcast Work
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: in Progress, and I am thrilled to tell you that
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: Work in Progress is back for a third season. My friends,

  Speaker 2: us to have all of these big conversations together. We
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: are going to get educated, a little bit enlightened, and
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: we will definitely be entertained. I started Work in Progress
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: because I'm a curious person, and I realized there are
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: so many people I get to speak to that are
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: fascinating and rare, and so I thought, why not take
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: these conversations out into the world. I'm going to be
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: having deep chats with thought leaders, newsmakers, celebrities, entertainers, authors,
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: elected officials, and more. You can join us and listen
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: to Work in Progress on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts,
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: or wherever you listen to podcasts.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: Can we talk about the Smores cake? The s'mores wedding cake?
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: So I, first of all, I love that Suki says,
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: this is this wedding we're doing is going to be
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: a trial run for yours and everyone's like, we're But
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: the wedding cake looked a back.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: I first thought it was a sculpture from China. I
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: had no idea what it was. And then when she
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: said it, I still couldn't see it. And then I said, okay,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: I accepted it because they were saying it, but yeah,
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: that was mine. That was amazing with that scene. Thank you.
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: And then can we talk about Matt Zuger's finger? Yes,
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: obviously that was real? He obviously yeah, yeah.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: Because they wrote it into the show, right.
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they wrote it in. But he's got a finger injured.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think they would allow that level of character detail.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they would. Matt didn't go to
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: them say listen, I really want to come back from Europe.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: But but no, but he did. No, But it was
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: in the script, right, because he got injured chasing the.
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think they I felt like they had
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: to do it because he actually hurt his finger. Yeah,
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: because I was like otherwise, it's so.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: What a great excuse to have Matt back on the show. Huh,
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: let's get him back on.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: Oh we need to you know, he's an American horror story.
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: We need.
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, once the strike INDs, we need to get Matt back.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: He's he's he got cast and.
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's airing. I tried to watch it, but it
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: just was.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: Too main role.
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah he's yeah, like I think he's like the top.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: I watched part of the first episode and I think
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: he's like the main guy. Good for him, Yeah, he
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's great. We got to get him back on.
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: We miss Maddie. I miss Maddie.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: He's so great. So I will say it's dumb she
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: lives in the poolhouse, but man, this looks good, like.
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: I'd like to live there totally.
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: It's huge. It has that huge living room, huge kitchen,
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: and that's not even the bedroom. We've seen the bedroom
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: ones do. That thing was huge too.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like a tooth square.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: Bigger them. So okay, So there's that. And then I
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: do think it's important to acknowledge when TJ goes to
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: Rory's door and what's in here and they all freak
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: out and she's clearly so sad and they're a little
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: caustic about it. Leave the room alone, but like, she's
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: sad about all this. Yes, she hasn't really moved on.
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: She's putting up a brave face, but she hasn't moved on.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: So here we have the second story point that maybe
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Susanne you can enlighten us that the fans are bucking
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: hard against this, uh this this breakup between Mother and
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: oh like.
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: The fractured relationship. So do the fans hate.
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: That the fans hate that?
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: I think I think most people don't like that they're apart,
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: like because we all watch the show for the mother
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: daughter relationship and it's hard to see them fighting, although
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: that's a realistic part of Mother and so I think
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: most people don't like to see them apart. I actually
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: some I've read comments that people like, just skip this
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: whole part altogether. I actually don't mind it. I kind
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: of like the conflict and I like Rory. I like
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: her getting taken down a notch was there? Yeah, but
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: you know that's that's good to see, So I actually will.
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: I like the beginning of season six. It's gonna take
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: a turn pretty soon, but yeah, I think the beginning.
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: I had forgotten how much I liked these episodes until,
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: like I started watching for this podcast, But I really
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: enjoyed the beginning.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: But it does prove that even if they're not talking,
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: they're interesting enough characters all throughout the show that's going
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: to carry the show. And even though you might be
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: missing feeling like you're missing something. You're getting a lot
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: in return, replacement value with a development of the other characters.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: Because I thought the half alien stuff was the best,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: was great, and I wanted to spend more and more
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: time with them.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I like Logan the lot, Like this isn't his
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: best episode. He's a little too smiley in this episode,
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: in giggly almost, but like he's adorable.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: M mm hmm.
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: You know, yeah, you know, you know where I think
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: season so far, the Luke Lorelie stuff is really good.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: Oh, I think that's always solid. Yeah, I think it
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: really it's a thing that's has sort of replaced the
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: Laurlai Rory.
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: I agree with you, right, I agree with you. I
• 53:05
  Speaker 3: think it's just why you're.
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: Seeing longer scenes between them and cuter scenes and scenes
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: between them. Yeah.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: For me, when I look back on the series, I
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: always think of it having three leads you, Lauren, Alexis,
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: But really that doesn't happen until this season. This is
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: the real season where you become really a lead of
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: the show.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I didn't in my opinion.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: In my opinion, this is where and I think it's
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: because they're sort of splintered. If that's the word squired, who.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Are we going to find to replace the Rory? Let's
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: get that look character in there. That's pretty good.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: So she've elevated that those scenes because there aren't Rory
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: lore Li scenes. So it makes sense that in my mind,
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: I always thought that existed, but it is true, like
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: in the early seasons, your part is smaller.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So.
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: It's interesting.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: It's because in terms of screen time, Yeah.
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: Exactly precisely. And I think I find them to be
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: so enjoyable that I think it's why I don't hate
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: season six or so far, because I'm getting so much
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: of that and I love those scenes. And I have
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: to say I love the dog scenes in this where
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: you're taking the dog and running to the vet's house
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: and all of it. I was just like, this is
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: working for me. Paul Anka is working for.
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Me right now. I think my favorite scene partners in
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: my whole career didn't say a word, just what I
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: want him to do.
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: Maybe even more than Luke, paul Anka is who they
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: brought into place literally literally needs take care of something.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: Is it gonna be, Luca?
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: Is it gonna be?
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Let's go with a dog.
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: So accurate I can't wait.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Times we can put luc In the dog together and
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: then they'll forget about it.
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I can't wait to hear your favorite lines,
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: because may I give mine? Yes, you may this line.
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: There's a million great.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: Lies only this time, this one time, Thank you so much.
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: There's a million right lines in this But the one
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: that I just went I literally chuckled is she's gonna
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: go to his place and she's got to get back,
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: and so he's going to pack up her stuff and
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: she says, like the last time, I got four bras
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: and no pants, and Luke says, that could have been intentional,
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: And you deliver it too, because, like I said, it's
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: ever so obvious and it's just like that could have
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: been intentional, and I'm like, oh my god. There's some
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: really funny sort of double on tundra stuff in this
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: one too, like sort of sexy funny, you know, the
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: same thing. No one gets to see the goods, but
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: you there's very there's a lot of flirting between the
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: two of you, now, really cute flirting.
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: So they're really comfortable in each other's presence. They're very,
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: very comfortable, very busy, both of them.
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: Totally.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: It's wonderful when they come together. What no, Yes, Amy
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: in the front row or.
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: You do it. There's one other hilarious one. She's back,
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: she's coming back. Did she leave her spell book? Did
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: she leave her phone or her spell book? What are yours?
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: What are yours?
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: What's your favorite?
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: My favorite line was when it's it was really like
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: it was a throwaway scene. Basically when they were at
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: the inn and they're talking about who is going to
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: come back late for this wedding party that was going
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: to arrive at midnight or whatever, and Michelle well, I
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: would do it, but I don't want to.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: Uh huh uh huh. Mine was after TJ's uh speech
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: about enlarging the kitchen and you know, knocking down Rory's
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: bedroom walls, and Laura l i uh as you described her,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: was a little caustic. And then that she left and
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: Luke left, and so TJ is standing there and he and
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: he looks at Tom and he goes, is she Jewish?
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: The last thing I expected? Come on? I felt I
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: fell out of the chair. I don't know that. You know,
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: Michael da Luis is very impressive.
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: He's great. I some people don't like him in this
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: and I don't know.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: But there's a there's a there's a level of skill
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: that he brings. I mean, that's what he's doing is
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: he's created a character that is completely different from who
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: he is. I mean that is a character actor. That
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: is a masterfulformance of a character that he created.
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: And I think it's they don't like TJ. Not that
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: they don't like him, but for.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Some reason people don't try not like how could you?
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: I don't know, but he's on some of the worst
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: Gilmore characters lists, and I'm like, I.
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: Think he's I think he's like on I think of
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: all the guest stars and all the recurring characters, he's
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: the top dog.
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: I agree, he's the.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Top of the heap. And man, I wish he was
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: a serious regular because they too what a I mean, yeah,
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: it's a gift to be able to incorporate body language,
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: you know, the vocal part of it, the action.
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: Here's your condiments.
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: Oh god, it was brilliant, brilliant, it was. He's absolutely
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: I mean I bet you he's.
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: I think he's fat.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. So I and I love that scene
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: I had with him at the end, building them up,
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: you know, getting his confidence back.
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that my favorite men.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: You're a Q, You're like Jesus.
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so sweet.
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: Oh god, I love that scene.
• 59:23
  Speaker 3: I'm giving this episode nine point seventy five armpits.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm hmmm.
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: I'll give it.
• 59:36
  Speaker 4: I'll give it nine point I'm going to say nine
• 59:38
  Speaker 4: point nine. I really liked this episode, but I'm going
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: to take a tenth off because Emily didn't know the
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: difference between a blueberry and a raspberry. That was a
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: big red flag. So I'm going to say my point, you're.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: Here yet, but I agree that really was like what
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: are you talking about?
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to give it ten. David Rosenthal
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: GIRs oh because he doesn't deserve them. Because the guy
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: the guys really gifted. I don't know what the heck
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: went almost season seven behind the scenes and the storyboards
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: and all that stuff, but I gotta tell you that
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: guy can write his ass off. That episode was spectacular.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: It was hysterical, it was funny, it was fast paced
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: without being rushed. And I think I think Michael Zenberg
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: has something to do with that, obviously, because he really
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: knows where to put the camera. Great editing, great directing,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: great writing. Man. I love this episode. I love this episode. Yeah,
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: I thought it was seamless and perfect.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: And wait, Suzanne, I cut off Suzanne and didn't let
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: her give her nine point nine? Was it blueberries?
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 4: Oh no, I'm going to give it nine point nine
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 4: orange trash bags?
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, good oh from the community service community. All right,
