  Speaker 1: Yeah. Plus, I don't think people want to like spoil right,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: come on over.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Before we get into our recap, I wanted to share
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: that we got a message and I apologize if it
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: was you who sent it. I dug into my Instagram
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: at DMS, I looked on our email. I don't know
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: where this comment came in, but it was in regards
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: to Kat using the name Rose and the grief support
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: group and it is. Commenter pointed out that the name
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: of their boat is the Delilah Rose, So apparently that's
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: her mother's either middle name or it's a nickname that
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Colton had for her.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I see, I see.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I've noticed this is not unique to the Way Home.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: But like typically when they choose previously on scenes, they're
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: choosing scenes that will feed It's not like just last episode. Yeah, Like,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: let's choose scenes that are going to be about what
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: this is about, right, So I want to tell you
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: just what the previously on was for this before you
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: jump into our.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Recap, tell me, because I don't know if I paid
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: that close attention.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: We get Colton singing to dell in the past when
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: he's with Alice and Dell Is coming down the stairs.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: We get a way throwback to Cat wondering who sent
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: the note to your mom. We hear dell Is really
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: said on the idea that there was another woman, and
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: then we get Elliot mad at Cat that she's not
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: here with him, and I had to say a real
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: accate representation of what we're going to get in this episode.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Definitely Are you ready?
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: It opens we see the full moon and then we
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: see Colton's car crash again. Kat Alice are running through
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: their woods sobbing, coming out of the cold pond in
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: present day, and Elliott there is there and Cat is
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: screaming it was my fault, It was my fault. And
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: I got to say, like, wow, that was a great
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: scene by Kyler Lee where she was like freezing cold,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: shaking out yes with the realization of what just happened.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yes, I wrote masterful performance from Kyler Lee there.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We cut to Elliott's home.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Alice is asleep on the couch and Cat's talking to
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Elliott saying she should have listened about Elliott saying what
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: has happened will always happen, And Elliott repeats that. Cat
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: wonders if he would have died anyway, if she hadn't
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: gone back, would Colton still have died? And this is
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the kind of time travel circular logic that again makes
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: my brain short circuit. But she's telling Elliott Colton knew
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: who she was, he recognized her, my cat, my Catherine.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: She wonders what that means, and Elliott doesn't know either.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: That's That's what I'm find confusing and hard to believe,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: is because Elliott has always stood firm that like what
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: has happened will always happen, But how does he actually know?
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: That gets to be frustrating for me as a viewer,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Like he's not all telling it, like he doesn't know everything.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: I agree with you. There, we get some perspective into
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Elliott in this episode.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah I will wait.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: For but I think speaks to his firm belief that
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: what has happened will always happen.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but like it just drives me crazy. Where Kat's
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: like trying to She's like talking through it, right, like
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: she needs, and I'm the same way, like I need
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: to verbally process yes, and I need somebody just to
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: listen to me. Yes, but like for him to be like,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm telling you that what happened has
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: always happened, but I don't know, like if he would
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: have died or not. So I just it's a thing.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: It's a me thing.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Kat's angry with herself that she put Alice through, that
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: that Alice had to see that accident, and she remembers
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Alice was at Colton's funeral and that this is going
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to be the last time that young Cat saw Alice,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: and she and Elliott are realizing this is going to
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: be Alice's last trip back. Elliott wants her to tell
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Alice that it's over, that they need to move on
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: and be in the presence.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Cut to the opening title, We come back and Alice
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: and Kat are at home. Alice tells Kat that Coltman's
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: death was her fault because Kat chose Alice over Colton.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: That's what I've written here.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: That's correct, okay, And she saved her in the street, right,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: So she feels guilt.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, you know that it was her fault, not Cat's.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Fault.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: So Cat tells Alice that they need to have faith
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: and believe that what happened what has always happened. She's
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: just reiterating what Elliott has been telling her this entire time.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: And we hear a horn honk, and Cat remembers that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Brady's in town to visit, and Alice is like, I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: can't deal with him or I don't want to deal
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: with She knows what's coming.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: She just saw her grandfather die. She needs a minute.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: She just needs a minute. It doesn't want to deal
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: with her dad.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Brady's waiting out front, and he asks Kat how she's
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: been doing, and of course Brady has absolutely no idea
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: what Cat has been reliving. So he's just thinking about
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: in terms of their separation, really and he asks if
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: they should do this. He has Kat they're divorce papers
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: and says is this the right thing to do? And
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: then he says, give me a call when you guys
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: are ready. And I wonder what does Alice have to
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: do with this? And I it occurred you. We find
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: out later on that apparently it's like a secret that
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: they're filing for divorce. You live in another country. Your
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: daughter is very smart. She knows what's going on.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: You're with another woman.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Kat is with Elliott at this point. Yeah, like, oh,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: we're gonna surprise, we're getting divorced. I don't this is
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: not the big reveal. You think it's great?
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, why they need this big sit down talk?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Like I think she realizes what's going on.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Brady hasn't been there. I think Kat knows
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: that Alice knows, and Brady feels like they need to
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: have like a I would hope that Callus knows like callous.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I mean whatever, Yes, it's stupid, Yes, stupid detail on
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: this storyline.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: First, it was not needed all the.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Extra subterfuge, like yeah, the divorce papers I think are
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: a nice button on this season.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Next thing, we have Cat and Dellan and are in
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the kitchen and don't let's to know who was honking?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: That would be me, who's honking out front? So rude.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Then they move on to talk about Byron's sudden departure,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and here it is Kat asks who's going to take
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: over the Harald.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: I wrote with Wendy Wright question mark, I'm telling you, well,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: who knows.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: I'd be right for next season? But it's still is
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: very unclear to me, like why Byron just bounces Like,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: of course we don't have any closure with him. In
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: this episode, you mentioned like you don't think we're fully
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: done with him, and maybe we're not.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: I didn't, but we'll get there, okay.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Dell is annoyed that Byron has left, and Kat reminds
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: her that she's the one who showed him the road,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: which was quite funny.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a, Dell says, easy to releave when the road
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: gets tough, and I liked Kat's line, you showed him
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: the road.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And then right after Kat says it, Dell makes
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: this like smirky Yeah, I thought it was great.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Cat checks in on Alice and lets her know that
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Brady is back at the hotel, and Alice is looking
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: through the family almanac for Colton's funeral date, and they
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: find a page where Jacob has sketched his little Jacob
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: and Cat logo in the almanac. And I did, at
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: this moment think like, oh, that's interesting, Like when did
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: that happen? Right, It's just kind of such an obvious
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: pointed moment. Yeah, Alice wants to go back and be
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: there for the funeral, and she wants Cat to come
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: with her, and we see them jumping in the pond together.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: In this moment, I wonder, how cold is that pond
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: water every time they have to jump into it fully clothed, well.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Like in real life. Yes, well, this is what I
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: was thinking. I recently went on a WB back tour.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and they had this pond there, and the
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: person was telling us that like they fill it up
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: with warm water, that the pond has these heaters underneath
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: it so when they fill it up, it has warm
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: water for when your actors jumped into it. But with this,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, it could be just wonder older jumping in
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: because they make it look so cold, not a real.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Pond or jumping into it. I think it's a pool
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: sure in a sound stage somewhere. I like this saying
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: because this is everything Cat has wanted for so long.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: She wants Alice to want her, and I think, as
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: a mother of a teenage daughter, I've felt very like
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: that's all I want for my own daughter.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she wants her to love her as a mother
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: as much as she loves Cat. Her young best friends.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: We find young Elliot. He's looking out it window. I
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: think from what I called the treehouse. I don't know.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, I always call it the barn.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Are they in a barn?
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Isn't it that big barn?
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I think it is a barn like upstairs, But for
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: some reason, I couldn't remember last night when I was
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: taking my notes if it was a tree house. I
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: think it's a barn. I think you're right. Alice comes
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: in and Elliott's been crying. He said about Colton's death,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: and he remembers that he's built this space for them,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: and he tells Alice it will mean a lot that
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: she's there for the funeral, and she's soaking wet, and
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: she tells him that she needs some clothes. He and
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: she wants him to bring her some options, which Elliot's
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: super annoyed by this request. He calls her like demanding
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. But we know as viewers, like,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: she needs clothes for her mom. Yes, she's not letting
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: young Elliott know that adult Cat is there. Yeah, blows
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: tiny mind.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he says, I'm only doing this for Cat, and
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, you are well. Actually, we see young
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Cat and Brady and Dell arrive at the funeral and
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: it's it's really striking to see just Cat and Dell.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: You know, there's no Colton, there's no Jacob. Alice an
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: old Cat approach together Cat, but Alice leaves Cat behind.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Kat stays in the shadows, but she's very much in
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the open here.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: God, And at.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: This moment, we just see the family and Elliott. In
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: my notes, I say, no, da, but give it a second,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: because I'm just taking notes in real time. Cat really
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: looks broken here, and Dell gives a nice speech about
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Colton and what he loves, and right in the middle,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: I write, oh, there's Rita, and Jude and Joyce are
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: there as well. Delle calls Colton their North Storm, and
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: we see Cat crying behind a tree, and Dell spots
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: her and just has this long moment like she's trying
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: to make sense of who this woman is. Cat doesn't
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: even make an attempt. She just stands there sobbing very openly.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: She should have did that, you know that, Homer some meme.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: We're here.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: And this is where Della assumes she's the other woman.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I want to comment on this because you had asked
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: in a previous episode you for a long time have
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: positive cats the other woman. We now have proof. We
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: knew that, but we'd have the proof. And you said,
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: but if delsa cat, wouldn't she know? And here's the thing.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: If I would like to think if I see my
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: daughter twenty three years from the future in front of
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: me across a field, that I would recognize her. But
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: it's how do you make sense of that when your
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: actual daughter standing right next to you. Even if you think, wow,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: that woman looks like my child, is she going to
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: make the leap? She's a time traveler from the future.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: You're not going to make the leap to a time traveler.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: But I think there would be some sort of mother's instinct.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: It would make your hair stand up on the back
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: of your neck. I think there would be some sort
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: of something, and.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: That this goes back to the easiest explanation is that
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Colton was having an The easiest explanation for Dell in
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: this moment is that's the other woman. Everyone approaches Dell
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: to comfort her, and we see Kat and Cat is
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: coming to another realization another it was me.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: It was always me moment, Well, how is she not
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: there yet?
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Okay? So I have been thinking about this because I
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: made a comment later on that Cat's always the last
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: person to get there right the bike was her. She
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: caused Carlton's accident. She's the woman at the funeral, which
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: she should have realized once the support group was happening.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: But I think the reason they give Kat this device
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: is because they need the viewers to get there in
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: that moment. If you're not picking up what they're putting
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: down ahead of time, they need to kind of provide
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: that oh moment for the viewers.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: And Cat is kind of an unfortunate vehicle there next
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: thing her back in present day and Elliot walks into
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the point and he sees Brady sitting there. You can
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: see Elliott kind of like like stops and like has
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a moment of like should I turn around a walk out?
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: And Brady calls him over to sit down. And at
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: this point, like I hate Brady like so much, Like
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: I just feel like he's holding court there a little bit,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: like come on over, dude. I just really dislike this character. Yeah,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Monica asked what to get them, and of course their
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: orders are very Brady and very Elliott.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: And Elliott is almost like, so Elliott to spite Brady absolutely,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: even if Elliott would normally drink a lot day, He's like,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: I'll have a house coffee black.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Brady tells Elliott that he knows he has feelings
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: for a cat and always has, and that the divorce
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: papers have been served and now that you know that's done,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: he can have her, basically, which I was like, you
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: are such a jerk. Yeah, And he goes on to
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: tell him that he was actually threatened by Elliott as
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: a teenager because Elliott was smart and he's the one
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: that Kat turned to when Kat was feeling hurt and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: during the hard times. And Elliot's like, I didn't make
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: that connection when we were teenagers, but.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you were such a dick you never acted threatens.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly?
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Is that ever?
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: The scene?
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: And I mean, Elliott kind of tries to shrug it
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: off and he's like, yeah, we were kids. Then he
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: quotes Cure Reguard, which is just, oh yeah, so funny
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: to me because Elliott is clearly the smarter of the two,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: like Brady's success we know is based on nepotism, based
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: on his family's connections, and Elliott is the.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Actual smart dude here, right, And I thought, I can't
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: remember the quote, but it was fitting for the moment.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: In two thousand and we get Alice thanking Elliott for
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: all of his help, and she says, Hope, I didn't
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: ruin anything for you. I just wanted to be a
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: part of this world. She tells him how important he
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: is to her in the present day, which I think
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: is really lovely. And Alice watches everyone get in the
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: car and go and not one of those weird scenes,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: no one's like, Ellis, how are you getting home from
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: this middle of nowhere? Yeah, but I guess you just
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: appear from the woods. She turns to look at her
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: mom and both women kind of share this broken hearted moment.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Now here's the thing. Could dell have come to the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: conclusion that maybe that was Alice's mom hanging back in
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: the bushes during the you know what I mean, instead
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: of like the worst, Oh Colton was having unfair with
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: this lady, Like, wouldn't it make more sense that Alice
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: was at a funeral with a parent, but the parent
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: was clearly like not welcome because it was a very
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: small group.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: So maybe this private moment.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Yes, every funeral I've ever been to, if I hardly
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: even know the person, I mean full tears.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Of course people are sharing lovely stories.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: It's moving so like it's not a huge leap to
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: be like, oh, maybe that's just Alice's mom.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Yes, And if my child's best friend's father had an
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: untimely death, I would be in tears at their funeral,
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: even if I had never met this person. That's tragic.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, so yes, it was a weird scene. They all
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: like pile into the car by poor Alice's left at
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: the great site by herself, like, I don't why didn't
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: they invite her to come to the house.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: We go to commercial and then when we come back,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Cat and Dell are at the kitchen table, and I'm
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you, I have become very fond of like
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: their being in their kitchen. I don't know what it is,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: and I will I'm not spoiling anything here. I did
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: watch the beginning of Ride after this, and they have
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: kitchen scenes like in this at the top of the episode,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, but I miss the Landry kitchen compared
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: to this one.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: It's weird. It's really weird.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: It's almost like you grow this like connection where these
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: people are at just like with like nine O two
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: one zero, like them being at the peach pit or
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: the wal the Walsh home. It's it's the home actually
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: for me, and I think mostly because like that's something
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: that I always desired as a child growing up, is
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: having that like everybody around the dinner table kind of
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: meeting of minds. Anyway, total side note from me. But
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: they're at the kitchen table and Dell basically says that,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: you know, cats being unusually quiet, and Kat goes on
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: and tell her that she's been thinking about Colton and
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: that she thinks that Dale's been hanging on to this
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: idea of Colton having an affair because it makes it
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: easier than the pain of losing him. And I gotta say,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I think you said that I did right either her.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: To be angry than it is to be sad it is.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Delle brushes it off Dale Gonadell but talks about a
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: memory she's recently had of Colton and it's the evening
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: that he says he's going to explain everything, but then
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: that ended up being the night that he died, and
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Kat asks when when did she remember this? And as veers,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: we know this was in the last episode. She had
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: this like weird sort of out of body moment dancing
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: with Colton and like all that all that I read
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: on Reddit Actually people were like, oh, but did you
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: notice that Colton's hair was more gray in that scene
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: and they were trying to figure out the time.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: That was the most unusual scene I think we've had,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: because we have actual time travel, we have memories, and
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: then we have this scene which is unlike both of
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: those things, Like it's Dell in the present day having
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: a visceral memory.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Pulton, right, it was, You're right, the weirdest scene that
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: we've ever had. Ye. Delle brings up the woman at
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: the funeral and Kat assures her that the woman was
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: no one of importance, and Delle asks it if it's
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: okay to just let all that stuff go now, And
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all of this lead up to this, like
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: mystery woman at the funeral, where Kat now has an
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: understanding that it was her, and Delle's like, let's just
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: you know, Dell has for weeks just wanted to leave
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: the past in the past, so her asking Kat in
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: this moment, like can we just like put an into
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: it and finally let it all go? And they agree,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Cat agrees, Cat heads off to bed, and Dell pulls
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: out the business card from the grief group, which twenty
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: three years.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Later, Kat gave it to her last week.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: I know, but does she think that this grief group
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: is still a meeting twenty three years later?
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: You know, I made the wrong assumption about this when
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: she looked at the card. I thought she was going
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: to go all investigative journalist and try and track down
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: this woman. And see that's not at all what she does. Dell, Yes,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about more. Yeah.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Alice is up in her bedroom and she's looking at
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: what I wrote down as Colton's funeral paper. I don't
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: know program. I was like, what is that called? It
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: was real late when I watched this last night, and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: she has this memory of him telling her that she
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: was a singer, not to let that go. She's looking
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: at the guitar. She has this like moment, this epiphany, yes,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: that she's gonna now go on and do other things
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: with the singing, and.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: We cut to so what I think might be the
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: next day, it's unclear. Alice arrives at the point and
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: she's asked Spencer if the Roxy is still looking for
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: people to play at the opening, and he says yes
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: and told her how excited he is, that how much
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: she's looking forward to catering it, and that the appetizer
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: he made the night he made dinner for Alice's on
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: the menu, and thank you for this full circle moment writers,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: because impop Zoe and says you made Alice dinner and
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: she gets this look like what is happening? And I say,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: here we go. They're interrupted by Brady who wants a coffee,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: and Spencer can't get out of there fast enough and
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: bounce it all over it. We get no resolution, but
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: we do get another look from Zoe like, what's happening now?
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: I just had a reaction as you were reading that,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: because I think it was last week I read before
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I called Zoe Chloe. Yeah, and last night I called
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: her Sophie. I cannot remember her name, And when I
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: was writing down Chloe, I was like, no, that's not right,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: it's Sophie. It's actually Zoe. I'm sorry, my apology. I
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: just don't know why I'm such a brain blog when
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: it comes to her and the next thing, Ellie. It's
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: reviewing his own notes about time traveling, and I had
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: to watch this scene over and over again. What I
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: gather are these were notes that he had taken as
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: a teenager about the visits, and he was checking off
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: the last one of the funeral.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Kat walks in and tells him that the woman that
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Dell had suspected about the affair was actually her and
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: his response was perfect. I was super dry and he's like, okay,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: taking that in just phenomenal acting by Evan Williams. Heare
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Cat wonders what the point of time travel is if
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: there's nothing to be changed from it, and she's going
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: on and on about her being the root of all problems,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: and he's just like enough, stop and she here apologizes
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: that he has to be a part of this whole thing.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: You know that his life was disrupted by this too,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: and she promises that she will try to let go
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: of the past and then they kiss.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but don't forget that. Elliott has a moment where
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: he's like, I am the only one in all of
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: this who has known my future since the past.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: I think that comes later.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: It's both times. Oh really, he brings it up. He's like,
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: I am the only one who has known all of.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: This, and Ket's just not listening to him.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's not listening to him, and later on she
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: seems very surprised. We'll get to but he brings it up,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: and I wrote, that is a perspective that I hadn't
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: yet really thought about. Now, that's an interesting perspective. Since
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: he was fifteen years old, he's known a good portion
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: of the trajectory of his life and of cats as well. Right,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: and I wrote, Elliott's a sucker for calf her. They
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: kiss at the kitchen table. Adult Brady is telling Kat
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: that Alice is going to be singing in a concert,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: and this is one of those moments where he's like
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: really trying to be the parent.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: She's like, I know, dude, Yeah, I don't need you
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: to tell me.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: What our kid's doing. And right, that was a personal
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: reaction there, and Alice is really nervous about it, and
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Brady wonders if this is a good time for their
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: dun dun dun chat, and Alice is like, y'all, we
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: don't need to have a talk. I get it. This
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: is for the better. She bounces, She gives them the
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: old I'm fine and goes upstairs.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's upset and annoyed and Cat runs after her
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: and they have like this moment and she says like
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: she wants to go back to the two thousands.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Well, first, she says, divorce is nothing compared to what
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: my friend.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Cat right, that's right, that's right. And you know in
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: this scene, Kat goes says something like I.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Know it was me.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought that was such a rude response, Like
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: it was like rude. So Alice runs out basically, well.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: Don't forget that.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Tell me.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: She wants to go to the pond, but Cat's like,
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: you never came back, right. Alice doesn't want to believe this,
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: and she's upset and she's like, why didn't you tell me?
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: And she's insistent on trying, and we get two back
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: to back scenes.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: We get present day Dell pulling up to the grief
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: counselor's house. It's a quick scene. We cut away to
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: Alice emerging from the pond. We don't know where. She's
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: peeling off her wet clothes, sees the farmhouse and says,
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: when am I right now?
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Let me go back to Dell pulling up to the
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: grief support house. Do you think I know? Later on,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: she says, I went to the house. It's not my thing,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: like the griefs I personally think that Dell went to
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: see who opened the door if it was the same
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: woman she saw at the funeral.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: So that's a good point. When I said earlier, I
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: made the wrong assumption. I meant I thought Delle right
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: wanted to see if this woman or maybe someone involved,
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: maybe this one would have some insight into Colton's actions.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: But I took her at face value later on when
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: she says, I went to the grief support group. But
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: your point is a good one.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't get any any inside, Like what happens.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Does she go to the door, does she not go
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: to the door? Does she meet the person? Does she not?
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Like, Yeah, it is Dell the biggest mystery.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Of all in this show. Right, So, like you said,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Alice is at the farm, but she she's looking around.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: It's clearly not wintertime anymore. There. To me, it was
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: like springtime, like we were in a completely different different
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: time frame. I mean it was obvious to me.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And the car parked and the driveway tells me
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: it's much more present today than it went And she's.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Like, when am I, Oh, I mean that's good. She
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: approaches the house and she can hear Dell telling Rita
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: to let it go, but Rita is pleading with her
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: that she needs Kat there, she needs her family now
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: now that Jacob has been finally declared dead, Delle tells
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: her she's fine, and she regrets showing Rita something. Of course,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: we realize later that it's the letter to Cat and Alice,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: which makes me super nervous goes into the actual house
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: because watching them talk, and I was like, how can
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: they not see her?
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: How can they?
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: I hear somebody come in.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: I write. Alice breaks and enters to Evestrom.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, it distresses me. Out of course that's
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: not going to happen. She's watching them talk and they're
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: talking about the letter that was mysteriously send a Cat
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: way back in episode one. So now we know that,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: like Alice is in present day but a few months.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, prior in the very recent.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Past, yes, and you know we see Dell. She throws
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: the letter away and they leave the kitchen and Alice
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: goes and digs the letter out of the trash. I
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: mean here obvious to me. I was like, oh, Alice
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: is the one who sent the letter. We get confirmation
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: of that a little bit later in the episode, but
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I don't know why we didn't
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: think about that.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: There were a lot of things that happened in this
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: episode that I never thought of. Yeah. I had two
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: things in all caps from that scene. One, Rita's like,
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: don't you think it's time you meet your granddaughter?
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: And I wrote she's never met Alice in all caps,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: which I don't know that I knew that.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because when they actually come in episode one, was
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: there this like.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: I think she has like an I'm your grandmother moment
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: can recall? And then I also wrote does Alice mail
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: the letter? Which, of course after the commercial, we see
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Cat signing the divorce papers at the kitchen table, and
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: she looks a little sad, but there are no tears.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: It's just kind of like the end of an era,
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: letting it go. And in walks Alice, fresh from her
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: recent mass time travel, Cat asks if she saw a
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: young cat, and Alice says the pond took her where
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: she needed to go, not where she wanted to go.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: In walks, Brady happy to see his girls, and I
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: roll my eyes at this. He gus Alice a hugs,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: is They're going to be fine. He'll see you at
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: the concert, Kat gives him the completed papers and Brady says,
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I love you both, and he leaves, and Kat heaves
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: a sigh of relief. And I'm gonna be honest if
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: we don't get much Brady. I like this actor me too,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: which is a bummer, but I hate his character and
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: the way young Brady behaves and the way adult Brady behaves,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: especially toward Elliott. You're an adult, let's let it go.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: I just it's so unlikable. I don't like the contentiousness
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: of it. So I will be okay if we don't
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: get a lot of Brady, which I think we might not. Well.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Also in this scene, there's no follow up from Kat.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: When Alice goes it didn't take me where I wanted
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: to go, but where I needed to go. There's nothing
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: like Kat goes, well, what's a supposed to mean? I
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: would be like, what are you talking about? Like give
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: me the details you went where?
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Instead like me too?
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: No follow up? Nothing?
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: Did you find Jacob? Yeah?
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Did you find Jacob? And the next time, we're still
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: in present day and Alice is playing her guitar and
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: she's up in the barn slash treehouse and Dale walks
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: in says she heard Alice singing from like I don't know, downstairs,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: out in the farm whatever, and she hasn't been up
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: there in a really long time, and tells Alice how
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Colton built in for the kids, and she says, I
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: heard a rumor that you're gonna be singing out the
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: opening of the Roxy, Alice is super happy about it,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: says she has to keep the landry singing tradition alive,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: and dell here wishes that Colton could have heard his
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: granddaughter sing.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. We cut to the opening of the Roxy. We
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: see Spencer serving, Monica and Kat talk briefly. Monica brings
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: up Brady, but Kat just says she's gonna head over
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: and see mister Elliott. And things are clearly not all
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: right with Cat and Elliot, because all Kat can talk
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: about is how nervous she is for Alice, and she
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: asks him to hold her hand, but they kind of
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: get interrupted by the bell ringing to bring them into
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: the theater, and they don't appear to hold hands. The
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: opening song is by a band called JJ and the
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Pillars called Way Home, and no, I do believe that
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: is actually JJ and the Pillars singing on stage based
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: on the photo of them, I saw all right. Yeah,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: and during this song, which is a cool song, actually
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: cat catches Alice from the wings, and she catches her eye,
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: and Alice is looking around a little bit nervously, and
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: then we see Brady finally show up, and everyone kind
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: of relaxes because he's shown up for his daughter, and
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Elliott rolls her eyes when real enjoys them in the audience.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Look, I think if you are a co parenting, it
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: is nice that you have both parents show up and
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: they just sit next to each other and like, and.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: They're not making it more awkward for their daughter by
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: not speaking and not being excited for her in this moment. Yeah.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: So I'm a little bit annoyed by Elliott here in
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: this scene, mostly because like, be supportive of like their situation. Like,
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I know, you hate Brady, but this is what's best
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: for Ali, right exactly.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Alice takes the stage to big cheers, and she looks
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: as terrified as she did in the opening scene of
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: this show. Another great callback. I think she sings, you know,
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: the opening bars of a song pauses again, really mirrors
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: that opening pilot episode, and then she kind of relaxes,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: and she says, you know, this song wasn't the right one,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: and she starts over by singing Colton's song and Hanny
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: McDowell just acts her ass off.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: She's right, I have chills right now.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Yes, she's blown away, having this moment of like I
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: can't even begin to imagine what she's thinking. Like, first
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: of all, here's the song that the love of her
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: life sang to her and how special it was. But
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: her granddaughter is singing it, and that alone is a lot.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: But how does Alice know this song? Dell's really going
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: through it. Kat's having a moment too, She kind of
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: checks in on Dell. Well, let me just say, Sadie
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Snow can sing, and she's really good. There's just a
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: lot of talent in this caust. We learn that Evan
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Williams also sings as well, not in the show, but
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: he should.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: No. His song is featured at the end of the episode.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Oh is it y Well, I'll get to it, but
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: he himself Elliott is not singing, is what I mean?
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Elliott's not singing? Yes, Evan Williams is set.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, Del cries what appears to be tears. Cat and
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: Brady squeeze each other's hands, and Kat and Elliott sare
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: looking again. Elliott back off, this is not the cat
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: not being their moment for you that you think it
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: is right, And then there's big applause at the enemy
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: cut to a commercial.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, when they're watching Dell in this
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: kind of full realization of things that are happening, I'm wondering,
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: like because like you see so many emotions like I'm
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: you're right. Annie mcdell is such a fantastic job in
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: this scene, Like you see that she's stunned, she's elated,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: she's confused, like she's having all these feelings while watching.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: And I was like, give me more, give me more.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Does she does Dell know? Does Dell know? That's what
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: I need to know? And I think that's still very
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: much an unanswered question. We come back from commercial, we
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: have cat. She pulls up to Elliott's house and he's
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: like collecting sticks in the yard, which I was like,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: is that a thing you do on farms?
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: Like maybe it's firewood for his fireplace. Okay, I don't know.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I wrote, Elliot collecting sticks? Question Mark would question Mark?
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. They chit chat about Alice and her performance
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: and Brady being there, and she asks, like, why didn't
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: you come over to the house last night? And she
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: lets him know that she has signed the divorce papers,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: and I feel like she has a really nice moment here.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: She tells Elliott that she doesn't take him for granted
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: and that he means so much to her, but he
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: wants to have a.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Talk about that. He says, yikes. He says, I've been
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: a spectator of my whole life, that everything was set
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: in stone before he could live it. And I think
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: we talked about this earlier, but I think this is
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: part of why he rides hard, for everything that is
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: going to happen has already happened. I think because of
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: his own experience. He says, I can make my own
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: choices now I feel free, And this is a really
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: beautiful breakups speech, but it's also very heartbreaking. And Kat
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: doesn't seem to get where he's going.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: She says, I get it, and I write Kat is
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: never one step ahead. Elliott says he loves her, but
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: he has to start fresh and he wants her to
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: understand where he's coming from, and Kat definitely does not
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: understand like this is our moment. I'm here for you.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, I'm giving you my heart.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: I don't understand either. This is a man who has
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: wanted this woman his entire life, since he was a teenager,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: and now that that whole, like everything he has known
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: to happen, has finally happened, he does not want to
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: pursue anything further with her.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: I agree with you. And unless Elliott knows more than
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: we write, he's kind of at the end of what
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: he knows, right, so his future is unwritten. He does
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: get that chance, why not make it with Kat. We'll
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: get to a mo where I think it's actually advantageous
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: that they have this breakup at the very end. I'll
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: explain why. Oh okay, But behind the scene, a version
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: of Time after Time is playing. That's thee Evan Williams
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: song Oh Bright World is his band. When I shazammed it,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: it said, oh Bright World music. Evan Williams Bright World
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: the solo project of actor singers. So he is that
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: is him, And Elliott cries and when he takes off
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: his glasses to wipe his eyes, I'm a bit of
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: a goner.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Really, Yeah, I don't know. I just was kind of
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: mad at him in this scene.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: I felt that emotion too. I felt for both of them.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: I think Elliott has been put in an unfair position
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: throughout all of this, and I think he just wants
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: some control and he doesn't feel like he has any
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: of it. And I think Kat is in this woman
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: coming to him saying, like, I sign the divorce papers
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: and I think co parenting's really going to work out,
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: and he's like, none of this is in my control.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I had to wait for you to be done with Brady,
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: and I had to wait for that story to be over,
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: and I'm constantly waiting and I don't have any control.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: And I just don't think he likes.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: It, like I am on everyone else's timeline.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: But I think he's making a bad decision here, Like
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's cutting his nose off despite his face.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: That's exactly the line I see your face wondering if
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: it is. Also, I thought, well, how are you gonna
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: do this? Because this is a very small town, so
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: you're just gonna I think they live very close to
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: each other too, mm hmm, So you're just going to
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: see other people while seeing Kat and Alice.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: Everywhere you go yeah, I don't understand.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: And he was close to Dell prior to all of that, right,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: so many questions.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: Next up, we have Dell, Kat and Alice and they're
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: sitting at the kitchen table and.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Dell asks Alice about the.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Song and like where she learned that from, and Alice
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: says it's something that Kat taught her as a child,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: which is a nice cover up. Yes, perfect here deal
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: says she went to the support group, but that it
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: wasn't her thing, and she tells Kat sorry for being
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: lost in her own grief and why she wasn't there
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: for her as a teenager. And I was like, this
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: is what we've been waiting for between these two forever.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: Now they have well, Kat has some clarity I think
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: about it wasn't her fault, yes, but.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: It wasn't them blaming her. Yes, that's it that caused
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: their distance. Was less about her and they were just
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: stuck in their own reave.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: And there's something like a teenager's not going to understand that.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: No, right, I'm your child, show up for me. You know,
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: teenagers are wonderful but incredibly self centered, like they are
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: the center of their world. So I don't think the
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: teenage Cat would have had the ability to think.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Right, And I have to say, like Dell, yes, she
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: did not show up for her child, but a lot
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: of parents don't. A lot of people are selfish as adults,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: and even without this tragedy, right, So it was nice
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: that they finally had this moment. I just wish that
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: it wasn't such.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: Like a blip. You wanted more. You wanted like a
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: big emotional but that's.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Not dope, I know. I know then I was happy
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: that they finally did it. And she goes on to
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: say how her heart is full now that they are
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: back in her life, and like, I'm telling you, this
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: is like the most like vulnerable like we've seen del
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: By with Kat and she's you know, expressing how happy
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: that she's there with them. And Kat says that she's
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: thankful that Delle sent that letter, and Delle's like, I
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: swear it wasn't Meting sent it. And now we have
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: this flashback of Alice leaving the farm putting the letter
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: in the mailbox, the mailbox outside their home. She dropped
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: it in like a blue postal box. I don't know,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: it was just funny. So now we know confirmed that
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: it was Alice who sent the letter.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: This is the countdown to the end. So Finn the
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: dog comes in and he's soaking wet, and Dell's like Finn,
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: and he has a ball and this comes at you
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: real fast and furious. So Dell says he just can't
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: stand out of the pond. And in this moment, Kat
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: has a memory of Jacob saying I saw that dog again,
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: and he plops the baseball on the table much like
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: the one Finn has just dropped at their feet, and
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: we get another memory of Cat dropping Jacob off at
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: home after the carnival, and we hear after she sends
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: them into the house and she, by the way, runs
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: off into the woods again, which is such a bizarre choice,
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: but we hear the dog barking in the background. Cut
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: to present day Cat. She has a memory the almanac
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: from earlier where they see the Jacob and Cat logo.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: She runs to the family almanac and she sees that
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: the page right before that is torn out, but she's
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: more focused on a quote on the side of the
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: page that says the explorer found a home, but he
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: still looks to the stars when he feels lost. A
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: lot of questions here we get another memory Jacob and
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Cat looking at his glow in the dark stars as children,
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: and Jacob saying, did you know the explorers used to
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: look to the stars when they got lost. In comes
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Alice to Kat looking at the almanac and ask what
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: she's doing, and I apologize. So this is when we
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: have the memory of Cat running away after dropping Jacob off.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: But we get that moment continuing. Jacob goes out the
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: front door and he chases the dog running back to
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: the pond. He chases them right up to the edge
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: of the pond and we see Finn jumping in. We
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: don't see Jacob go in, but we do hear a splash.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: Cat shells Alice back in present day. Jacob chased Fin
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: to the pond on the night Cat saved him, and
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: in comes Dell asking what is going on, and Kat
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: turns and says, I know what happened to Jacob. You
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: get a tidle sequence on the screen that says poor Haven,
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: New Brunswick, eighteen fourteen. And here's this opening scene again
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: of the woman running through the woods. And there's been
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of speculation about who that woman is, and
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: I will say that we never speculated this, we see
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: everything that we saw and from behind knowing what I
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: know now, and like, that looks more like Alice's hair
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: than Dell's hair.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: I agree, yes, And.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: Then they swing around to the front and it's Cat Yes,
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: with incredibly long hair now, and she says, I'll be
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: back for you, Jacob, I promise, and into the pond
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: she goes.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: I have so many questions. I came this morning. I
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: was like, you're gonna have to explain this me, but.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: I don't think we have any of the answers. So
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: question one is how long has she been there? Right
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: in the past. We don't know, but because her hair
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: is so long, my feeling is she's been there a
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: long time.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: But how does that affect present day?
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: That's the other thought I had is if she's been
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: there for a long time, a year two for her
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: hair to be grown out like this. Again, I'm leaning
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: heavily on the hair because I feel like it's an
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: important detail. What's happening in present day? Where's Alice? Because
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: has she just left her daughter behind?
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I don't know now you.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: And a previous episodes had said, are we just going
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: to keep traveling to different time periods now and you
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: know you really didn't want like a back to the
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: future three situations.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: Yes, but I'm not sure.
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: That we had really envisioned this, had you her spending
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: time in eighteen fourteen?
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: No, And I got to tell you at the end
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: of the episode last night, I was like, I've enjoyed
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: revisiting the nineties and the early two thousands. I don't
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: know if I want to visit eighteen fourteen.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: Interesting. And then the other thing I said earlier, I
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: think it's fortuitous that Elliott has ended this relationship because
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: Kat isn't done with the past. The second she realized
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: what happened to Jacob, we knew she wasn't going to
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: be able to resist going back to the pond. We
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: don't have the same insight into her experiences in the
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: past as we do about Alice's. Right, I think we
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: can assume that the pond took her to eighteen fourteen,
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: But is Jacob living there as a child with that?
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: Lots of questions, tons of questions.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for a season two, but again, I don't
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: know if I want to, Like, I mean, we're just
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: going to totally lose our fun noticed in the ninety segment.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, we are going to ask to redo our segments
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: for season two. I have one more question. Yeah, why
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: doesn't Dell recognize Alice?
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: That's a good question.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: Your daughter's best friend twenty three years from now reappears
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: in your life. Alice had a significant impact on their life.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: Is it just the trauma of the time she doesn't
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: have access to those memories.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: Well, I think I recall from an earlier episode this season,
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: Kat asking Dell do you remember my friend Alice? And
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Dell is like, not really, hmm, that sounds familiar, but
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: she was there quite a bit, And why can't Dell
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: remember that?
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: And late we have these scenes like we had last
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: episode where it's just Dell and Colton and Alice, and
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: Alice is at the funeral with a handful of other people.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Seems to me I would remember everyone at my husband's
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: funeral if there's only seven people there, right, So Dell
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: might be the biggest mystery and all of them.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. You were gonna mention something about Byron.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: Well I had said last episode, I don't think we're
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: done with Byron, But in this episode, Byron bounces, and
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: then when we get to the end of the episode.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: I'm very curious to see how these characters are we
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: gonna spend more time in eighteen fourteen. Is it gonna
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: be like a back and forth situation like we've had
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: I hope so. I really like the contrast of the
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: present day in the past. I'm very curious if Kat's
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: going to be spending an extended period of time in
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: the past.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Maybe, well, that's this is another thing too, is like
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: if we're not going to be revisiting the nineties anymore,
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: how sad that we're not gonna have those We're not
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: gonna see those.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: Characters, those actors anymore.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: We're never gonna see Colton again, maybe not, which really
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: bums me out. I really like Jefferson Brown. I would
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: love to see him in at something else. All those
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: actors who played the younger versions I thought were great, Like,
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: we're not gonna see them anymore.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: Well, and if we get Jacob back, are we going
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: to get him back in twenty twenty three? So Dell's
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: going to be raising this eight year old nine year
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: old Jacob's not.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Coming back to twenty twenty three, I don't think.
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: But if they get him back at all, are they
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: going to return him.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: To the nineties. I don't know. It's too much for
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: my brain to compute. I'm dying to be in the
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: writer's room. I would love to know what they're doing here.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I just want to say I thought this was
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: a very satisfying season finale. Yes, I agree, so many
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: open threads that I had kind of forgotten about. I'm
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: glad they touched on the Zoe Spencer of it. All right,
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: they're not leaving things hanging.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, I felt like, Okay, thank you for

• 46:54
  Speaker 1: I wonder when season two will come out? You think
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: next year?
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Well someone asked and on an official Hallmark one of
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: the social media accounts, and they said, we don't have
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: a release date. Yeah, so we don't know the answer
