• 6:10
  Speaker 2: an apartment doing shots, getting drunk, and nothing's happening. This
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: is bonkers, you know, I mean, it's it's just goes
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to show you know it was destined to end in
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: such a way. I'm just surprised it didn't, you know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: end differently. But quite frankly, hot people just can't be
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: friends with hot people. And that's the I said it.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: You know what is said. You can't do it. You cannot.
• 6:33

• 6:42
  Speaker 2: You know, you want to have someone who you're you know,
• 6:46

  Speaker 3: because I love I love this concept.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I would say.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Back when I was at college at UNC Chapel Hill,

  Speaker 3: I'm the dog friend stop it, Megan, now to make
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: you all it is this this concept is real, but

  Speaker 2: We made a movie. It's on YouTube. Are you serious?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Dog Girl gets her Revenge? Yeah? Why have I never?
• 7:52

  Speaker 2: We're gonna we're gonna link it. That's gonna get some
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: good YouTube hits. Dog Wait, Dog Girl gets her Revenge?
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Megan, Oh, you know that's the thing. You hang
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: out with hot people, it's not gonna go well. You
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: hang out with dogs, it also might not go well.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: So you know what, hermit just hermit it up.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: The only way. Speaking of hermits, someone's inside of their
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: house and discovers there are cameras up in the uh
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: you know smoke detector, which we all wonder, don't you
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: just wonder even in your own house. You know, you're like,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: did I put cameras out there? Like? Did someone come
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: in here and put camera? You're just always wondering. There's
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: because there's you know, cameras are scary out there these days, guys.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Discovers the cameras up in there after
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: her figs get her bacon wrapped figs or something burns
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: yes in the oven, and I just didn't see that
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: it was going there.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: I didn't act it, and I was like, oh god,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: there's cameras and the smoke detectors. I also didn't realize
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: until that point that Tucker, her husband, was in the
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: security business. Somehow that had blown over my head. Maybe
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: I would have seen it coming or something, but that
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: was really a shock.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: That was a shocker. And boy, oh boy, oh boy,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: also a shocker. Tucker hired the guys to beat up
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Gary guys, guys to do it. I was like, oh
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: my gosh, he did he did it.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: He lets it slip by saying making a comment about
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: a tooth right, and she puts it.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Together like how did you know that? And he really
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: did it? Yeah, he really did it. What happened? He
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: did it? You know, I mean Tucker did it. He
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: is he has lined up everything in the last three
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: episodes to where we've had a big reveal on who
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Tucker is. And when they sit down at that bar
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: and he repeats the line to her, which is, if
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I tell you this will change everything. Because after she
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: comes home that morning of the wait of the well done.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: It's from traders, I recap that or but she comes
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: home that morning and he is just like, uh, ma'am
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: you know, and she's like, well, if I tell you,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: this will change everything. So now they are just like
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Bonnie and Clyde just live in their best life. They
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: got their sex life back because of the cameras. Yeah,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: and then they and then we find out that he
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: hired the guys to beat up Gary. We find out
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: that he has a gambling addiction.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: He's lost all their money, he has like not had.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: He's been telling her that he's been flying overseas, wow,
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: going to all these really cool places and lo and
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: behold he has been going to Vegas and gambling wow.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Or or the downtown I think he mentioned the downtown.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Casino, right MGM or whatever. I was like, Tucker, yeah,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Actually she seemed fine with him gambling in Vegas and
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Dubai or wherever he's been going. But the second he
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: was like, all was at Motown Casino, she was like, oh,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: how dare really? Oh Tucker, have we fallen? You know?
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: There was a great line during that when he says
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: something like, you know, this means that we can't go
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: to Saint Bart's anymore, and she's like, that's okay, I
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: don't mind that we can't go to Saint Barts anymore
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: because they're in financial distress.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: And he makes a comment about how a lot of
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: women in gross Point would mind.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I know, I just want to say, I haven't into
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Saint Bart's, Tucker, I have not been there.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: I haven't either. By Megan, I love that line because
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: he said he goes a lot of ladies in this
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: town wouldn't like that. Like this town, you know, the
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: big city, or like this affluent town. The ladies wouldn't
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: stand for it. And it just really did make me laugh.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: It was kind of an eye roll. It was like
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: that line was so cheesy and so great and so
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: many ways so great, so great also Saint Bart's. He
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: really nailed it with that. I mean, don't you feel
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: like when your friends, when I'm talking about like all
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: of my friends would go on these really expensive vacations
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: and I'd be like, we're driving five days down to Florida,
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: not in a van, uh so edan, I will be
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: stuck in the back seat right in the middle, and
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: if I cross over the line, I will get punched,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: you know, And.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: I will yees the line in the back seat, don't
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: you dare, don't not even finger?
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, if I was lucky, I'd get get some
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: property over on the bottom of the fliller. But like,
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: you know, it does check out. You know, the Saint
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Bart's the whole you know, the whole Caribbean area. You know,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: wouldn't you say, I don't know? Definitely, Yeah, a lot
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: of Florida less West Palm Beach and yeah, yeah the Keys,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: the Florida Keys.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, some people go to Mexico. But it's yeah, we're
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: we're talking some shehi Vay Case.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, that totally checked out.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: I loved that one. So but yeah, so he is,
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: you know, out of money, and she's like, I've got
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: your back. And now they're basically starting from zero where
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: they she's got a hustle when she actually this was
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: so interesting Megan seeing her go, well, it was a
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: quick it was a nice montage that they showed us
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: of her getting used to motherhood again because she was
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: a working woman, yes, and so you know she had
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: lost her job, right she wasn't She's not working for
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: that real estate company anymore because of Gaary. So she's
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: now like at home, and so we're seeing her more
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: hands on as a mother, and she's getting used to it,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: and you can tell she's having issues with, you know,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: the cleanliness and the organization and things like that. But
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: then of course she decides to go back out into
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: the world and get this great job with a new
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: real estate firm, into which she is presented with the
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: idea of you're going to choose your career or you're
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: gonna choose your your child in this moment, and she
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: discovers that she wants to make her kids a priority,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: and so she goes home and she realizes that, you know,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: motherhood is more important to her at this point to
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: be more of a stay at home mom. But now
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Tucker has lost the money, so she's like, let's get
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: to that contact list and let's try to sell some
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: houses and save our app Yes.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: Yes, And I really loved to hear some of the
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: gross point street names Devonshire and of course my mom,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: my mom lived on Bishop for several years, twenty years.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: I was like, Bishop, Oh, Megan, I couldn't believe they
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: said your street name.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, sod dress might have been right on our block.

  Speaker 2: I don't even know It probably was seven fourteen was
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: the address. I mean, wow, yeah, that hit home right here.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: That was really it hit home special, It really literally
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: hit home literally your home. So she goes to that
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: woman's house and the woman who's going to sell her house,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: which was the perfect gross point mansion. My god, did
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: it look like a gross point house down to that.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Walk in super huge closet with cases for shoes.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: It was amazing. The facade, you know, everything about the
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: exterior was perfection. And I loved that she was going
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: to give it to the guy with the bigger firm.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: And then she you know, hit her where it really matters,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: which is I know, the neighbors. Yeah, on either side,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: and you want my PTA list? That line killed me.
• 16:13

• 16:17
  Speaker 3: line there, saying like you could use well, I can't
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: find it right now, which is always helpful. But she
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: said something like, oh, you don't need Goldman's international contacts,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: you need my PTA tree.
• 16:32

  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I don't know what happened. I don't know. Okay,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: So so she's going to try and save their ass.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: But you know, Tucker, we knew something was a brewing.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: We didn't know what it was, and no wonder he
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: was so quick to forgive her. Yeah, I mean exactly.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: You're sort of like when that initially happened, like huh
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: really so fast? And then this makes sense? Yeah, and
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: you wonder you know what came first, the chicken or
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: the egg. So Tucker obviously started to be distracted because
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: he has a gambling problem, and so his mind is
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: elsewhere and not on their marriage. He's not prioritizing her.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: There's love is loss, there's no romance. Of course she
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: went looking, and so you could say it's his fault, right,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: you really good? You could make that argument. I'm just
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: gonna say it is so yeah, I like it. She
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: did what she needed to do, and I don't blame her.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Gold Hold. That's what we gross pointers do. We make
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: bold claims.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. We're unapologetic about it. I will
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: see what I've been thinking.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: About the show in broad strokes, and not a one
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: of their relationships is in a healthy place.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Isn't that perfect? Yeah? It is?
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: You're right, everything's a mess. You know, everyone has their
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: own demons. Everyone's struggling in their own way with their
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: relationships and their families. And that is relatable, you know.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: I think that it's a great thing to see because
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: not you know, that part is relatable obviously, the murder part,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: you know, not so much. But or maybe it is
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: to some of us. I don't know. You tell me
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: right in everybody confess right here right now. Yes, So
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: we do get you know, the flash forward, the flesh,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: you know, all that stuff to the moving of the
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: dead body. So we've got Catherine and Bertie that have
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: to move this dead body and they're in this Cadillac.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: They run out of gas and they now go and
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: make the worst mistake, which is Catherine goes in and
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: like gives pills and a bracelet to pay for the gas.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: And there was also a little clue when they open
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: up the trunk and they were going through the pockets
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: of the victim and they found matches and that later
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: was matched up to the bar where the CoP's wife works. Yeah,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Saint Clair Grill. We so nice, Saint Claire Grill. I
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: lived on Saint Clair for a little whilean apartment. It's
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: all coming together, so hilarious, both of Bart's trees. Okay,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: so she works at this bar, and we know that
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: that those are the matchbooks that she gives out there
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: clearly in this person's pocket, and you know, you're You're
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: just sitting here going like there's cameras everywhere. What are
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: you doing? What are you thinking? Oh God? And then
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: for Tucker to come through later by like this, go
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: to the tape, show the tape, and it is.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: Just paying off in spades that he works in security,
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: and so.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Like get it again. It I initially thought was.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: Just putting it in the smoke detectors. I'm like, okay,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: where's this going. No, this paid off huge.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Huge, Why aren't I working in security? That's what I
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: need to know. By need to go work in security,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: because I'm going to have to I know, cover my
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: ass at some point or someone else's that I love,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: and I'm fine with that, yes, or it pays to
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: know someone who works in security. So darlings, who do
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: you know? Send them our way? Yes, so that was impressive.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: But that poor gas station guy, it's like, you know,
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: just I swear it was she gave me the bracelet?
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah and now nope, sorry, sorry I missed.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I missed.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: How did they find him? Like, how did he get
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: picked up? I couldn't remember.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: I like missed that. But I'm like, how, I don't
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: know what happened. But that guy's going down. He's taking this.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: He is really big good. But you know what he
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: wanted the pills, you know he did. I think he
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: manifested that into his life and that's something that he
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: has to answer to. That's not our that's not our problem.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: It's certainly not Catherine's money money talks. So Marilyn, Okay,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: how much did you love her episode?
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Laarlin loved and it really felt from the house to
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: the storyline very gross. Point to me, I just thought
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: they nailed it that the house was another house, you know,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: I keep thinking, how are they filming this in Atlanta.
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: It looks every house looks like a gross Point house
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: to me. Yeah, they did a really really good job.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: And then she's in her kitchen cooking.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: And the relationship with Buzz, who's the mayor of gross Point,
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: which I love.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Another terrible relationship, I might add, she's is that a
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: mayor of gross Point? Yes?
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: There are five mayors, one for each girls Point Park.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Each. My mom's like, how can you not know
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: there's a mayor? Amy? My parents are like, Amy, really
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: five mayors? Really, that's a lot. It's a lot. Well,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: they're getting stuff done, okay, So there's five mayors for
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: each Point Carrie on.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and this one I don't know which one he's
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: the mayor of, but he is working late a lot,
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: which troubles her. She wants to make her also Buco,
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: which I've never had.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I had to look it up. I'm a vegetarian, so
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: I don't eat that stuff. What did you find? Tell
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: us about? Also? Buco?
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: An Italian dish which we can both relate to as
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: Italian Italian feel Italian veal dish very hard to make,
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: and she puts a lot of time into making this dinner.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: And then they shoot a scene that you would expect
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: to see in a gross point dining room. She's sitting
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: alone waiting for him to show up at the end
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: of this long dining room table and he's not there,
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: and there's the beautiful assobuco and.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: She smashes her plate. Yeah, that was killer. She took
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: the asabuco and slammed that down. That scene reminded me
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: of how Brett and I dine often like that, me
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: at one end, him not showing up at the other,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: working late, the Popeye's chicken, just sitting there getting cold.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Oh awful, terrible life imitates art. Yeah, exactly the same.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: We'll take a quick break and come back to Maryland's
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: episode in a second. We need to talk about menopause, ladies,
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: let's get on the same page. We're all darlings here, right,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: So this episode of Drama Darling with Amy Phillips is
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: brought to you by Alloy Women's Health. Dealing with menopause
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: or you're approaching menopause can be super duper and not cool.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: So you're having problems, sleeping, hot flashes, brain fog, wakeained,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: greased libido. Do I need to go on? So it's
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: inevitable but it's also relatable and it's also treatable. That's
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: why I'm so excited to be talking about this because
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: one of the biggest things that I hear about a
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: lot is not a ton of people are talking about menopause,
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: and then what do I do? Where do I go
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: if my doctor isn't talking about it. The thing that
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: is so great about Alloy is it's availability. Alloy solutions
• 24:41

• 24:43
  Speaker 2: short medical questionnaire and patient verification, and you'll work with

• 24:50
  Speaker 2: tailored specifically to your needs, and then you get your
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: three months supply boom once approved. So I mean, it
• 24:57

• 25:05

• 25:43
  Speaker 2: talking Gross Point Guarden Society and I'm with Megan Grano Megs.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: So Marilyn. She is, you know, obviously it's very obvious
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: her husband, Buzz is having an affair, and we get
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: flashes to her coming home and discovering something and then
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: she has blood on her. She eventually calls Alice. We
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: see that they are at the vet. Can you tell
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: me what happened? Here? Is this? What we saw? Is
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: that what happened? Are we burying the lead? Is Buzz dead?
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: What's happening?
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: I do not think Buzz is dead based on what
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: I saw, but they could always trick us. I mean,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: they're really good at like pulling the rug out. But
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: from what I saw, you know, there's Marilyn. She's there
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: at the gala the night of the event, trying to
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: sell the Gross Point quilt. Behind her that has just
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: each little thing is a stitch of gross point history
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: going back to the model t it says, and she's
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: trying to sell it and she looks down on her phone,
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: gets an alert like there's something going on in the bedroom.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: So she drives home in tears, and all I kept.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Thinking is it's Buzz. It's Buzz there with that woman. Yeah, okay, but.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: As we find out at the vet later, it's her cat,
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: that precious cat that I just want to comment on.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: Buzz in an earlier scene is pissed that mister Fingers
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: the cat is on the counter.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: And I got to say, I really related to Buzz there.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: We have two cats.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: They're always jumping on the counter and on our table,
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: and I always I felt very bonded to him there.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah you can't. I mean, it's cute for a second
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: and then you're like, get down. You can't have that.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: You just can't have a cat on the counter.
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: But you could see that they feel really differently about
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: the cat, because she was like, I don't mind, she's
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: like petting the cat in that same area where she's
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: going to make the us SO book.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: She doesn't know he'd mine, And yeah, she's he says that.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: She says that.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Buzz must have left the window open and a coyote
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: jumped in, which is amazing, and butchered her cat. But
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: mister Fingers survived. Mister Fingers survived. We do find that out.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: So are we to believe that that the coyote jumped
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: in the window. Is that what we're to believe? Yes?
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, do you believe that? Or no?
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: And so that it that she came in with that
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: knife and slaughtered the coyote, brought mister Fingers to the fence,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: and somehow mister Fingers survived that. I'm just putting the
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: whole timeline together. That seems like a long like she
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: gets an alert in the.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Window and then does she say like not again or
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: something like that, or doesn't say like bucket out. I
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: don't remember what it was, but it was something like
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: she was mad at Buzz or instead of like, oh
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: my god, mister Fingers, I'm coming.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: It's so it seems confusing, completely agree, Yes, like I
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: thought maybe it was I'm sorry to mean to cut
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: you off. Maybe the alert was the bedroom window is open,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: and then mister Fingers got out, and then the coyote
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: was outside of their way. That makes more sense.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: That makes a lot more sense because I'm thinking, how
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: did that coyote jump to a second floor bedroom?
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Like I was like, wow, that makes a lot more sense.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Cartoon coyote, But like, that makes a lot more sense.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Maybe there was also Bougo in there that that Buzz
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: ate and bed and then left out by the woe
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: my gosh. That is a very confused. I don't know
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: what happened. I'm very confused.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: Yes, I know that she loves that cat, perhaps more
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: than she loves Buzz. So I'm gonna go ahead to
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: make a call that maybe that's the problem in her relationship.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: She loves the cat too much. Yeah, I mean that's
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: fair and guilty guilty over here too, Just kidding. So yeah,
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: So she's covered in blood and then she has a
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: weird time with Alice and the vet at the I
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she calls Alice to come be with her, and
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: Alice of course shows up that morning after the gala.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: She's still in her dress, which Marilyn notes. She notes like, oh,
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: you're still in your dress, and then also notes that
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: when she was out she saw the black Cadillac and
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: the quilt hanging out of it. So it's like Marilyn
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: realizes something is up too, because that quilt she was
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: trying to sell at the beginning of the Gala.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: Ye, somehow it's hanging out of the Cadillac trunk, right,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: And whose Cadillac is that? I don't know. It's the
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: dead person.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I've been trying to figure that out because they kept
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: zooming in on some sort of insignia on the bumper
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: and I could not make heads or tails about.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: I kept rewinding. I'm like, what is that? I don't
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: know what that is because I thought it was because
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: I think Marilyn was also driving a Cadillac. But so
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: I think they're putting it out there like a lot
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: of people in gross point drive Cadillacs, which is true.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: It's very old school. Yes, sign of success money Troy, Yes, Yes,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: so yeah, I don't I don't know whose Cadillac that was.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: Obviously it must have been the dead person's, yes, yeah,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: but I thought they it can't. It couldn't have been
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: because they flamed. Had they have already burned up the
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: car at that point, Oh my gosh. Right, I don't
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: know because the timeline is tough to follow.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Yes, it is, because they definitely Catherine and Bertie in
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: that car make reference to the dead It is the
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: dead person's car, or at least so they think, because
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: they make reference going something about like how did this
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: person not get gased.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Drives without Yeah, it definitely is the car. Then they
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: just haven't burned it.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Yet, Okay, okay, Oh so we think that's the car
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: they burned later maybe yeah, uh yeah, that could be.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, so they have to move the body, Okay. The
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: mom buying the paintings, I knew that was happening, by
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: the way, of course, did you Oh my yeah, I
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: you know, last time that we had done this recap
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: and we found out that his paintings were like they
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: can't keep them stocked, we were like, who buys paintings
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: off of a coffee shop wall? Which is literally the
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: line that was said in one of these more recent episodes,
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: who buys paintings off of a coffee shop wall? So
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: there you have it. So now she's gonna you know,
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: break the bank supporting him so that they'll stay there
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: and then they're not gonna go, you know, retire in
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: Florida or wherever they were going to go, so that
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: they can pay to make them stay and have kids here. Yeah.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a it's a long way to go, but
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: you know that's what those gross point moms want to do.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: They want their kids close.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: And I guess that's what she's willing to pay the
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: big bucks to keep Doug close.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting. Okay, So let's discuss Catherine and Alice talking
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: in the car and they're talking about motherhood and Alice
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: is basically saying like, well, what is it really like? Like,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: what's it like being a parent? Yes? And I thought
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: this was a refreshing, unexpected conversation and incredibly well written.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: And that's why I feel like this show does a
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: great job to have these moments of actual, real, poignant
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: conversations and truth. And she painted the picture that you
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: you know, it's it's terrible, it's awful, you forget who
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: you are and then back yes, okay, yep. And then
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Alice is like, well, like then why would anybody do it?
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: And Catherine just says with so much joy, But there's
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: five minutes every day that are just absolutely incredible. And
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: I did think that was pretty accurate.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: Yes, I loved I thought that monologue was so good
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: that it gave me shades of America. For Ferrara's monologue
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: in Barbie where she talks about being a woman. It
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: was such a great Oscar winning monologue, and this one,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: I was like, hello, this is the end of towards
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: the end of episode six, for all the darlings listening.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: It's such a good monologue. Everyone should listen to it.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: On parenthood.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: I just thought it was so well written. That's such
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: a great point to talk about the Barbie movie that
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: because I really one of the things that I liked
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: about that movie was just that part. Everything else was
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: like okay, but I really the end was phenomenal, like
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: it made everything great, but that you're right, and it
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: just it was a beautiful moment for two women who
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: are in between, you know, society's pressures, their passion for work,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: their desire or non desire to have kids and to
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: whom do it for yourself or for someone else? And
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: are you not having them? Be because you feel too
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: much pressure and maybe you do want to have them,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: but you're not because you feel too much pressure and
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: you don't want to, you know, do it for the man?
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: You know, I don't know, so I thought it was
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: really really cool to discuss that, and then moving on
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: to Brett and Alice's friendship breakup, and he is just
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: now swiping right and she's got this new girlfriend named Cricket,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: which is so perfect, so perfect, she's so yes. I
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: love her.
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: I really had I looked her up. I'm like, I
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: swear I've seen her on something. She hoped is what
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: I had seen her in.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: She hulped. She was like the attorney, Oh okay, but
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I love her. She's so fun. She's really fun, and
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: it seems like their relationship is now coming to, you know,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: the point of no return with all the green juices,
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: his carburetors, all those things. I love when he gave
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: his carburetor a green juice cleanse.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Like I thought he was really turning a corner because
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: we saw I Forget.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: I think it was episode six. We saw his ex wife.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Melissa at their son's birthday party, and she's looking at
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: this relationship with Cricket and how I think they also
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: saw each other at yoga class and she's like, you've
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: got Brett doing yoga and drinking green juice and he's
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: so fun and all these things that he never was
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: when we were married, and she's expressing that she's kind
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: of pissed about.
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but it's nice to see.
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: It seems like it's that early love thing that you
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: do where you're like, yes, i'll drink the grain juice,
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: you'll change for you.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: By the end of seven he's just dumping that grain
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: juice right on the carburetor. He's eating fast food right
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: in front of her. He doesn't he doesn't care.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Anymore because people just don't change. I mean, it's just
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: you are who you are, you know. I mean you
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: can have small improvements, but for the most part, you
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: are what you are what you are. Yeah. Yeah.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: And there's a great show on that that we tried
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: showing the kids the other night's side note, which is
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: called seven Up, which was a documentary series done I
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: think the first episode they ever.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Did was in nineteen sixty four in England.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: And what the tagline is, give me a child at
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: age seven and I'll show you the person Like that.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: By the time you're seven, your personality is formed and
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: you're just who you are, just exactly what you said.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: You might have minor changes, but you're just And so.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: The documentary follows the kids starting at age seven. Right now,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: they're seventy seven years old something like that. They're either
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: seventy or seventy seven right now, and they still follow
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: up every seven years. No way, funny, Like there's like
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: fifteen kids and they really are all the same as
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: when they were seven.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, what is this on you? Where do
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: you watch it? I think it was like the BBC
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: that I think it's only on YouTube where you can
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: find it now. That is unbelievable.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: It's so cool, but it may I think you're right,
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: Like I love that Brett is turning it on here
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: for cricket, like I'm drinking the green juice, I'm.
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: Going to yoga doing it all. But yeah, I don't.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know that that's really who he is on
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: the inside.
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: I think he likes Tigers games and taking shots and yeah,
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: carbureators and eating late night fast food.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: I mean to think, like, because Megan, I'm Megan, Maddie
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: is seven, your son is seven, right, he's eight yet? Okay, Yeah,
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: but I think they are anyway they are. Yeah, Well,
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: whatever we did, it's done, you know what I mean,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: Like it happened so we're to finished. Boy, I'm glad
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: I've been available for the most part. I'm glad to
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: working from home now. Yes, yeah, Okay. When they had
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: the birthday party for the Sun and Connor gets up
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: there and does that word up dance, oh wow, wow, wow,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, that was that was next level. Okay,
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: First of all, he was amazing. Let's just say he
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: really knew what he was doing. He had the moves,
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: and in any other situation that may have killed. But
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: I love that they had him do it, and that
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: he committed so hard to it and they let it
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: go so far that it was so uncomfortable and you
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: could feel the pain of the children watching in the
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: sun watching Y's like what are you doing? Like this
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: is so embarrassing.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: Wrong place, you know, know your audience, know your audience.
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: Connor like cool moves, wrong place.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, wrong time, wrong place, and to be humiliated at
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: your own, you know, birthday party by this was terrible.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: So I appreciated Brett coming in and being like everybody.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: And then later Connor was sore about it, but he
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: still was thunder.
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I love that Brett made him admit that
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: he saved him.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: It was great. He was like, really, did Connor really
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: reach out and give him an olive branch? Or was
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: he setting him up like with the car business thing,
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: Like what is that all about?
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know for sure what he's doing, Like I
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: was trying to figure out. I feel like I finally
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: got his motivation that he wants to move to Chicago.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: See how gross pointers go to Chicagoe. Oh, yeah, you're right.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: He wants to move there and work at this big
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: law firm and he wants in order to do that,
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: full custody. So he's trying to dig up dirt on
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: Brett and just make this process so that they can
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: And I was like, oh, that's why he got the
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: PI to find dirt. I didn't realize what the motivativation.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: Well, I loved how they had to hit it over
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: the head with the PI that came in he found
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: off of like I don't know what Craigslist or whatever.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: But he was like, well he you know, he rolled
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: through a stop sign or whatever, and he's like, what
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: is our goal to get dig up dirt on Brett? No, no, no,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: it's the bigger goal. Well, so that you can get
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: full custody of the child, and then you can move
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: to Chicago and then be a part of this law
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: firm because you have an opportunity to get this job.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: It was like, thank you for spelling that out. I
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: appreciate that, Ny. We didn't have time to tell you
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: any other way. Right, so you know the right to
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: the chase and so yeah, I'm not sure about that
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: with the car thing. But that guy who came in
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: there and was looking at the car was pretty pissed.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: He was pissed. He liked all the acutra monts.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: He liked that the seats looked great and the exterior
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: looked great. But he wants to take that baby, that
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: Camaro for a ride and it don't run.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: He wants to open it up right there in ninety four,
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: you know, let her rip Connor's what is his wife?
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: Oh Melissa. But she says at that birthday party she
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: doesn't want to move to Chicago. Like that's a no go. Yeah,
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: that's good. So I think that plan is off.
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: So maybe he is genuinely like in thanking to Brett, like, hey,
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: I want to give you some I don't know, I
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: can't tell if he's a genuine guy or not.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, we're not sure yet. When the last episode,
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Alice goes into the coffee shop and she says, I'd
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: like an oat milk latte and that postmodern anti authoritarian
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: painting coffee. The prista was like, are you sure? Kind
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: of a crazy impulse buy? So what is she taking
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: her mother in law's credit card?
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's not coming out of her pocket. I
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: hope not.
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: I hope she's not like newly rehired at the school
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: in immediately using immediately using.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Her all of her salary. I'm assuming to buy this.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: That's right. I forgot. That's right. She's now, she's gone
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: back to teaching and she's not clashing.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: And this classroom just seems like a freaking nightmare.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: She's trying to teach Jean Paul Soctra. Yeah, you know
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: your French you speak.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: I can never decide to say it the American way
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: or the French way.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Oh that's but I don't do like you know here
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: in l A. I'm not like uh Spleveda. You know,
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: I'm not like Kawanga. You know, I'm like Kunga is
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: Paulvida French? It's Spanish. That was me trying to do
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: Spanish sadly okay, like I had no idea was French.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: That's really interesting in a world of Spanish the streets.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: They put one French one in for the one French
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: person involved. Oh my gosh. Okay, So we get we
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: get Marilynd who's like Donna smuggled them back from these
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: these Japanese riniculous bobs from from a trade fair in Tokyo,
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: and she's healing beautifully.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Got them and I am also like Birdie's like, I
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: want to know how she did it, and I'm like
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: me too, Man.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: Did you really put them all in your butt? It's
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: really all the way up there, those bulbs, boy, Poor Donna,
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: Poor Donna. And I love that Brett was like, I
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: can't have a legal bulbs in Europe and that they
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: had really like the seventh episode was very funny. They
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: had very comedic, a lot of comedic moments.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: Great comedic moments, including talking to the plants, which I
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: know from farmers is a very real thing. Wowoh yeah,
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: because my husband works with a lot of farmers and
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: it's true.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: It's a true thing. Yeah, they really do.
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: They'll get down there to those seeds, like they were
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: saying in the episode, like they hear or they feel
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: the vibrations, and I'm like, yeah, these farmers they will
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: tell you they really yes, yes, wow. And it was
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: funny the way they were talking.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: To it, right, you know right, I mean I was
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: surprised that those bulbs weren't emotionally traumatized. You know, that
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: those seedlings didn't come out like weeping.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Bertie's saying like real inappropriate stuff about stain in
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: size and you know she's going all Bertie to them.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: Just sexual. I'm not sure about that. Bertie and the
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: cup Wow. Wow? Wow? Is their chemistry hat hat? Hat?
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: I mean how about that? I love him just pulling
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: her over and then just getting mad and then making
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: out and then showing up better house being like house arrest,
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: and then it's just like and it's on, just this
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: is all so wrong, and they are getting together and
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: the plain sight, yes.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: In plain sight, and in Alga, her maid, who you
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: speculated might really be her mom.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: I think a long time ago, my friend Lisa Fuguer
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: husband said that she speculated that.
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm all on board with that, because she's
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: way too involved for just a housemaid's. She is not
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: liking this relationship. She calls it delusionship, which is one
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: of my favorite lines, Like, you know, Bertie, what are
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: you thinking this is? This guy is married. He is
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: not ever leaving that.
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: Wife, you know.
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: And Bertie's like, well, maybe when Ford goes to college
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: he'll leave her. And she's like, oh, come on, delusionship,
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: you know that's what you have.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: It was funny because she was like, and what, You'll
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: just be in his life and it'll go from there.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: And I thought, well, if this is if Oga is
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: Bertie's mom, it is kind of interesting because she had
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: the exact plan, which is to be in her daughter's life,
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: and she's in her daughter's life and it seems to
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: be going. Well. I completely agree. Yeah, it's a strange relationship.
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: We don't know what that's all about. Yeah, we don't.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: It is strange.
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: She has the balls to come in and yell at Joel,
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: officer Joel. She has the balls to scold him at
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: the fridge, like not to her. So it's interesting. That's
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: more than Yeah, I'm really on board with the mom
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: thing because it just seems way more than someone who's
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: just casually working.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: At the house. Right, Yeah, I agree, so well, that
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: we find out that Joel's wife is now has seen
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: them together, yes, and the sun is you know, hot
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: on their trail too, and is like, please leave us alone,
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: Please stop trying to give me money. Please just go away.
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: You're making things very, very difficult, and this is just
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: a sad, sad situation. But she really busts through that
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: door at the school and gives the principal the what
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: for about the how about that? Yeah?
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: She comes in late to the meeting where Ford is
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: getting busted for cheating on some sort of test and
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: he's already admitted to it.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: We find out like he's already admitted to it. She
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: comes in trying to defend him, and the principle was like,
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: you're too late. He already said he did it.
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: And she's like, well, you know that's because you coerced
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: him into it.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: She's not even gonna lie down at that point. She's
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: not gonna take it.
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: And they have this interesting negotiation where she essentially bribes him.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was amazing, Like, well, how about if the
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: Bertie Bradley scholarship is extended after Ford graduate? We like
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: that very much, even more if there were two scholarships
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: and done beats out.
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: And then Bertie meets with her ex husband, which was
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: a fun scene that was really fun.
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: He was the one, if I'm remembering correctly, it was
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: like the sanchrope.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was my accent there. Oh my god, Megan
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: killing it so good. Be sheep Saint Clair St. Clair.
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Okay uh. And then Alice Teaching and her Harry Potter situation,
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: which was interesting because the I don't know who it
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: is that comes in and is like, watch your back,
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: watch your back, you got your job again? Yeah, but
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: then comes in and I'm not sure either, and then
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: she's like, oh, looks like you know, Peyton's mom is
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: really happy with it. So she's going with this everybody
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: and everybody gets an A and you get an A
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: and you get an A. Interesting.
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what she's going to do when
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: it comes to state testing time.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: I'll say that I'll tell you what. You're in trouble,
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: little miss. Good luck to you. Okay.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: The Michigan Standardized state tests are gonna be hard.
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: You're gonna be a real pain in your ass. Honey,
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: look out, because they're not gonna get there with Harry Potter. Boy,
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: all right, is there anything else that we did not
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: touch on.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Well, I want to comment on they keep dragging out
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: the mystery, so we don't know, you know, we're at
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: the end of episode seven, but we have answered a
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: couple things here at the very end of episode seven.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: Kind of a big deal that I forgot to mention. Yeah,
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: it's it's.
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: Well, first of all, big deal to me that it's
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: not Tucker, like we know that for sure Tucker Catherine's husband,
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: because that all becomes clear that, you know, we already
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: talked about that, that she admits to him whatever's going on.
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: He saves her with the security cam. But they after
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: they are at the police station. This is in the future,
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: the day after the gala. They're having a drink and
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: in walks Gary.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: So he's alive. He's alive. But then remember when she
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: says about Gary, you don't have to worry about him
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: ever again. Yeah, but was that was before we see
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: Gary appear, right, yes?
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so I thought that was like weirdly misleading.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, okay, so it is he's dead, right, yeah,
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: And then he pops up and there he is and
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: they have a big chuckle. Yeah, it's a lie. Look
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: at that who knew and they laugh, You're right, like,
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: this is so we.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: Were led down that road that it was Gary totally.
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: We thought it was going to be Gary. But they
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: have answered that really plainly here at the end of seven.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: It's not Gary, it's not Tucker. Those were like two
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: of my top guesses for who it was going to be.
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: I thought, So now I'm back.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: To not knowing. I can't figure out who the heck
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: is going to get it. They also are showing that
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: it's more Catherine's fault and yeah, birdies than it is
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: anyone else's, right, that's pointing towards her, and she keeps
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: taking more responsibility than anybody. She does, Yeah, with who's
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: going to drive the body?
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: She says something like this is all my fault or
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: something like that, where so I don't know, you know.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: They gave us a couple back in a episode.
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: For the Doug and Brett fight the night of the gala,
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: But I don't know if that's Doug, I don't know.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know how that would tie to Catherine. What
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: if it's the gas station attendant, Yeah, that would be
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: I mean so boring if it was like who cares? Yeah, right,
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: that would be sort of a weird, a weird twist,
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: but it is so strange. Okay, all right, Well, what
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: a fun just bunch of episodes that we got to
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: take in. And I love it and I'm really impressed

  Speaker 3: long ago at a big security camera company.
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: Wow, And so it is real true.
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: These people have a lot of power because all that
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: stuff I got into. So I helped them prepare for
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: some speeches in a panel. And it is that's a
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: huge industry. Like when you think about how much is
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: on camera now everywhere. They're the people that are running it,
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: and it's up in the cloud. And you know, whether
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: it's like security cams that are on traffic lights and
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: on corners or personal security.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: It's a huge business.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: But at any rate, I meant to say that before
• 53:48
  Speaker 3: I helped helped them.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: Prepare them, dear, you know, like, really make sure you
• 53:54
