Transcript
- 0:01Not many people. Know how to process of me doing
- 0:04the glow episodes Go So allow me to explain to you how I watch
- 0:12these episodes. I watched them twice the first
- 0:17time around. I'm enjoying the episode, but
- 0:19I'm also pressing the windows button and H which audio records
- 0:24everything. I used to do it with the headset
- 0:29on and just do a play by play and describe everything that's
- 0:32going on on the show. But then I realized I could just
- 0:36leave it on near the microphone near the TV and it will just
- 0:43record everything by itself. Which leads me to just watch the
- 0:49entire episode once over the 2nd viewing is myself editing what
- 0:57was just posted, what was just said, it going through the
- 1:01dialogue of a 30 minute show with lots of pausing and
- 1:07playing, which equals up to maybe 3 or 3 1/2 hours only
- 1:12because I have to edit out what the windows age.
- 1:18Thought it said. They're having a conversation
- 1:22and the AI thinks it's saying something random, some different
- 1:26conversation itself. Let's just say that this, let's
- 1:34just say that this episode ended up being that way because I was
- 1:38Easter egg hunting ended up being, let's just say that this
- 1:44episode ended up being me watching it for three hours
- 1:47because I was Easter egg hunting.
- 1:51That's right, I was hunting for Easter eggs in one of the
- 1:55scenes. Sam Sylvia who plays the
- 1:57director of GLOW and is inspired by the real life director of
- 2:01GLOW, Matt Zimmer goes to a banned Horror movies Film
- 2:05Festival because of one of his movies is playing as well.
- 2:09As he makes his way to the entrance of the movie theater,
- 2:11camera pans on a few movies that you can make out that were
- 2:14banned. So I figured, why not just look
- 2:17at these movies up and see the reason they were banned in the
- 2:201st place, which will save a lot of trouble by having it on top
- 2:23of the show. It's the middle when I'm trying
- 2:26to tell a story, the story of Gorgeous ladies of wrestling the
- 2:33episode. So here they are in its entirety
- 2:36#1 Alice, Sweet Alice in 1976, an American psychological
- 2:41slasher film Co written, directed by Alfred Sole and
- 2:45starring Linda Miller, Paul Shepherd and Brooke Shields in

- 2:54suspect in the brutal murder of her younger sister at her first
- 2:57communion, as well as in not a series of assault stabbings that
- 3:01follow. While not prosecuted for a city,
- 3:04the film was seized if confiscated in the UK under
- 3:07section three of the Obscene Publications Act 1959 during the

- 3:15his parent. Anti Catholic Themes #2 Beyond
- 3:20the Door 2 Originally called Shock in 1977 Italian
- 3:25supernatural horror film directed by Mario Baba and
- 3:28starring Darya Nicolotti, John Steiner and David Collins
- 3:31Junior. Its plot focuses on a woman who
- 3:34moves into the home she shared with her deceased former
- 3:37husband, where she finds herself tormented by supernatural
- 3:40occurrences. It was Baba's last theatrical
- 3:43feature before he died of a heart attack in 1980 in the
- 3:47United States. The film was released on the
- 3:49title Beyond the Door 2 as an unofficial sequel to Beyond the
- 3:54Door 1934 and 2nd entry into the Beyond the Door Trilogy #3I Spit
- 4:00On Your Grave, a 1978 American rape and revenge film written

- 4:09Jennifer Hills, played by Camille Heaton, a fiction writer
- 4:13based in New York City who exact revenge on her four tormentors
- 4:16who gang rape and leave her for dead.
- 4:20I Spit On Your Grave is noted for his controversial depiction
- 4:23of extreme graphic violence, particularly the lengthy
- 4:26depictions of gang rape that takes up to 30 minutes of his
- 4:30runtime. During his wider release, it was
- 4:33branded a video nasty. In the United Kingdom, it was a
- 4:36target of censorship by film commissioning bodies.
- 4:39As such, film critic Roger Ebert became one of the most notable
- 4:43directors of A Detractors. I'm sorry, detractors, if I spit
- 4:47on your grave calling it a vile bag of garbage.
- 4:51The film remains highly controversial to this day, even
- 4:54being considered to be one of the worst ever made.
- 4:58For some, it is this controversy which has led to it being deemed
- 5:02A cult classic. Despite the controversy and
- 5:06overwhelmingly negative reviews, the performance of Keaton was
- 5:09praised by critics. In 2010, I Spit On Your Grave
- 5:15was included in Time Magazine's top 10 ridiculously violent
- 5:18Movies. The film spawned the 2010
- 5:22remake, which just spawned 2 sequels of its own, I Spit on
- 5:26Your Grave Two in 2013, and I Spit On Your Grave 3 Vengeance
- 5:29is Mine in 2015. A direct sequel, I Spit On Your
- 5:33Grave Deja Vu, was released in 2019, where Zarki and Keaton
- 5:38both returning. In her memoir Inside Out, Demi
- 5:42Moore confirmed that she is scantily clad woman in the film
- 5:45poster with her back turned. Not only did Ireland ban the
- 5:51original 1978 theatrical version, but the 2010 DVD
- 5:54release as well. Next one they call Her One Eye.
- 6:02Originally a Swedish movie called Thriller A Cruel Picture
- 6:078/19/73 Swedish rape and revenge exploitation film written and
- 6:10directed by Beau Arne Vivienus under the pseudonym Alex
- 6:14Friedolinski and starring Christina Lindbergh and Heinz
- 6:17Hulfe. It tells the story of a mute
- 6:19young woman who was forced into inherent addiction and
- 6:22prostitution, and their subsequent revenge on the men
- 6:25responsible. The film was released in the
- 6:28United States in a truncated version of Bi American
- 6:30International Pictures under several international titles.
- 6:34I'm sorry. The film was released in the
- 6:36United States in the truncated version by American films
- 6:39National Pictures under several alternative titles such as They
- 6:42Call Her One Eye, Hooker's Revenge, and The Swedish Vice
- 6:46Girl. The original running time was
- 6:50107 minutes. After being banned by the
- 6:52Swedish from Censorship Board, the film was truncated by 204
- 6:56minutes and then 86 minutes, but still banned.
- 6:59It was finally released after being cut down to 82 minutes in
- 7:03the United States. The film was viewed by American
- 7:06International Pictures, also in a truncated cut, running 82
- 7:10minutes. American National Pictures
- 7:13released the film in May 1974 under the alternative thrillers
- 7:18and they call her One Eye. The American National Pictures
- 7:23released the film in mid 1974. Fuck.
- 7:28The original running time was 107 minutes.
- 7:31After being banned by this footage film censorship board,
- 7:33the the film was truncated to 104 minutes and then 86 minutes
- 7:37was still banned. It was finally released after
- 7:39being cut down to 82 minutes. In the United States.
- 7:43The film was distributed by American International Pictures.
- 7:47All of a sudden the truncated cut running 82 minutes.
- 7:50American International Pictures released the film in mid 1974
- 7:54under the alternative titles thriller And They Call Her One
- 7:58Eye and in 1975 as Hooker's Revenge.
- 8:03It was marketed as the first time film ever to be completely
- 8:06banned in Sweden, although the first one actually was Victor
- 8:09Smalls Drums the Gardener. From 1912 it has received a
- 8:13call. Following was the basis behind
- 8:15Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill character L Driver played by
- 8:19Daryl Hannah. Next film Suspiria, a 1977
- 8:25Italian supernatural horror film directed by Daryl Argento, who
- 8:29Co wrote the screenplay with Darya Nicolotti.
- 8:31Partially based on Thomas de Quincy's 1845 SHS video de
- 8:36Profundis, the film stars Jessica Harper as an American
- 8:40ballet student who transferred to a prestigious Dance Academy,
- 8:43but realizes after a series of murders at the Academy's affront
- 8:46for A Covenant of Witches. It also features Stefania
- 8:51Cassini, Flavio Bucci, Miguel Bosé, Alita Vali, Udo Kiir and
- 8:56Joan Bennett in her final film role.
- 9:00Director Dan Argento's original idea was that the ballet school
- 9:03would accommodate young girls no older than 12 years.
- 9:06However, the studio and producer saboteur Argento, his father,
- 9:11denied his request because of film.
- 9:13This violent involving children would almost certainly be
- 9:15banned. Dalio raised the late she
- 9:18limited the girls to 20 years but did not rewrite the script,
- 9:22hence naive of the characters and the occasionally the
- 9:24childlike dialogue. He also put all the doorknobs at
- 9:28about the same height as the actresses head, so they would
- 9:30have to rate their arms in order to open the doors just like
- 9:34children. Another movie, Burnt Offerings,
- 9:39a 1976 American supernatural horror film Co written and
- 9:42directed by Dan Curtis and starring Karen Black, Oliver
- 9:45Reed, Betty Davis, and Lee H Montgomery, with Eileen Heckert,
- 9:50Burke and Mehta and Anthony James in supporting roles.
- 9:55It is based on the 1973 novel with the same name by Robert
- 9:58Morasco. The plot follows a family who
- 10:01begins to personally interpersonally dissolve under
- 10:04supernatural forces in a large state they have rented for the
- 10:07summer. Produced by Arvento Grimaldi's
- 10:11Porzoni E Rupee Associati PEA, Burnt Offerings was filmed on
- 10:16location at the historic Dusmere House in Oakland, CA.
- 10:21It was given the domestic limited theatrical release
- 10:23through the United States in August 1976, which expanded
- 10:26later that fall. While the film received mixed
- 10:29reviews from critics, it won several awards in 1977.
- 10:36In the years since its release, the film has been analyzed by
- 10:38Skip Film Scholar. That's a commentary on
- 10:41materialism and the dissolution of the American family.
- 10:44Next up, The Leech Woman, a 1960 black and white American formal
- 10:49film directed by Edward Dine, produced by Joseph Girshinun and
- 10:53starring Colleen Gray, Grant Fillings, Gloria Talbot, and
- 10:57Philip Treary. The plot follows a middle-aged
- 11:00American woman, desperate to be young again, who uses an ancient
- 11:04secret African potion to regain the lost youth and beauty.
- 11:08The potion works, but only temporarily, requiring repeated
- 11:11usage. Produced in 1959 Leachwoman's US
- 11:16theoretical release from Universal International with its
- 11:19double feature with the Brides of Dracula in 1997, it was
- 11:23featured as a part of the movie mocking sketch TV series Mystery
- 11:26Science Theater 3008 season. As for Sam's movie, Gina is a
- 11:33Machina, which we all know is not based on anything in real
- 11:35life. However, Sam Sylvia is actually
- 11:37based off the Globe director Matt Cimber, who was most known
- 11:40for his mid 70s Black's potation films The Black Six Lady Coco
- 11:44and The Candy Tangerine Man, which have all over the years
- 11:47been praised by Seminole Jackson and Quentin Tarantino.
- 11:51Were any of them banned? Well, according to John Squires
- 11:54from Bloody Disgusting, Simba's first and only stop in the
- 11:58horror genre in 1976 with The Witch Who Came from the Sea.
- 12:02Starring Millie Perkins, Lonnie Chapman, Vanessa Brown, Peggy
- 12:05Fury, Rick Jason, George Buckflower and Roberta Collins,
- 12:11the film centers on an emotionally scarred woman who
- 12:13goes on a killing spree, have taken a job as a waitress in a
- 12:16seaside bar. It's tightly refers to The Birth
- 12:18of Venus, which figures in the film.
- 12:21Dean Conti served as associate photography on the film The
- 12:26Witch Who Came From the Sea was classified as a video nasty by
- 12:29the United Kingdom Department of Public Prosecutions and was
- 12:32considered prosecutable for violating obscenity laws, but
- 12:36the prosecution proved unsuccessful.
- 12:39Retrospective reviews of the film have been generally
- 12:41positive. Welcome back, my father's
- 13:25behavior Squad. This is EVO and we are $100 away
- 13:31from doing our own 20 minute promo on social media.
- 13:36It will air exclusively on from under the apron.
- 13:41I will have the Rock video as entirely in the show notes, but
- 13:45there was something I said on Twitter that I wish we could
- 13:47implement from now on. And maybe it had to do with The
- 13:49Rock doing it for 20 minutes straight.
- 13:52But before I do, after The Rock publishes 20 minute promo, Cody
- 13:56Rose reached out and reacted. After The Rock published this 20
- 14:06minute promo, Cody Rhodes reacted on his Instagram when a
- 14:08meme that read I ain't Watching all That.
- 14:10I'm Happy for You though or Sorry that Happened, which ended
- 14:14up getting more likes than The Rocks promo itself.
- 14:16Basically saying this could have been an e-mail or not even that.
- 14:25This is like basically saying those were paragraphs after you
- 14:31have a fight with your significant other, or you so
- 14:35happen to insult someone and they come at you with paragraphs
- 14:40and you're like, oh hell no, I ain't reading that.
- 14:44So this is what I said on Twitter.
- 14:46Can we get these types of promos from now on?
- 14:48Have an edited version of it on the show, but in order to see
- 14:51the full promo you have to go to their page.
- 14:53I would love that and it kind of happened because later on on
- 15:00Smackdown you he said exactly the same thing.
- 15:03He said exactly the same promo. Well, not really.
- 15:07It was more or less like that, but it was like you know, you
- 15:12know where he was going. He he had the same insults that
- 15:16he threw in in the 20 minute promo.
- 15:20And then he brought it up. To smack down, oh, this one has,
- 15:24let me say it. But you know, if we do get
- 15:30something like this, that's great.
- 15:32Do it, do it again, do it again, do more of that.
- 15:35Have him do a big promo. Then have him do the tease of
- 15:40the promo and say like, hey, there's more to that over here.
- 15:47That 'd be great. Just imagine that Rock being the
- 15:52most busiest person in the world creates another 20 minute promo.
- 15:55Instead of trying to go to the show, he can do this in his
- 15:57home, in the comfort of his own home. 20 minutes. 20 or so
- 16:02minutes. Maybe more of him bringing up
- 16:04clips of other people's podcasts who are shedding on him or
- 16:07praising him. Maybe this one.
- 16:09Who knows? Who knows some stuff he said
- 16:12within the span of a month. Some, you know, highlight reel
- 16:16or having dinner with his family and his friends and making fun
- 16:19of his opponents. This isn't no longer expensive
- 16:23Shirts rock. It kind of is when he was back
- 16:28then. But but him talking is not that
- 16:31Mutton chops with sweats Rock number him.
- 16:33Corporate rock the people's champ.
- 16:35Rock. Hollywood Rock.
- 16:37No, this is no longer him. This is the board of Tikio Rock
- 16:41bringing up his status as he can mess with your life or your
- 16:44career. Like can he fire any of the
- 16:46wrestlers? Maybe for storyline purposes to
- 16:49make point, but then Triple H says no and brings them back and
- 16:55that would be the storyline. That would be how we get
- 16:57tribulation to the storyline against the Rock.
- 17:00It's something I was thinking about, something that I know
- 17:04will never happen of. Course on this episode of GLOW
- 17:10on Netflix Season 2 episode 6. For those that I knew, this is a
- 17:13recap and review episode of the TV series GLOW on Netflix.
- 17:18A show about the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling that was set in the
- 17:2180s. I will have bits of trivia here
- 17:24and there with additional interviews from the creators,
- 17:26directors or stars of the show throughout the years.
- 17:31All in all, it makes for an awesome episode if you haven't
- 17:34watched. If you haven't yet watched GLOW,
- 17:37I suggest you do so and follow along.
- 17:39I start, recap and tell you what I saw of the episode.
- 17:42And if you haven't yet, check out episode 133 where I talk
- 17:46about the first season and pilot episode of GLOW.
- 17:49If you want to go back and listen, that is episode one 23
- 17:57This is GLOW Season 2, Episode 6.
- 17:59The episode title of the episode is titled Work the Leg.
- 18:03It was directed by Lynn Shelton, also directed season one,
- 18:06Episode 9 The Liberal Chokehold. The first episode of Season 2,
- 18:10The Viking Funeral, written by Marquita Robinson, who wrote the
- 18:14first episode of Season 2 Viking Funeral as well Synopsis Facing
- 18:20new competition, the woman bowed to amp up their wrestling.
- 18:24A startling discovery changes Sam's outlook on the show.
- 18:30Short cold open, I walk alone by the pills.
- 18:35It's playing as Cherry is leading a jog.
- 18:37While all the girls are right behind her.
- 18:40Yolanda runs beside Cherry, asking her what her new
- 18:43character is going to be suggesting.
- 18:44Maybe a crooked cop? Cherry tells her she's junk
- 18:49chain, Yolanda tells her. But she's junk chain, Jerry
- 18:53says. We'll see.
- 18:55She turns around and motivates the other girls to pick it up
- 18:58toward the back. Ruth and Debbie are running
- 19:00beside each other, not speaking to one another, and then we see
- 19:04the infamous GLOW logo. Next scene, Sam and Bash arrive
- 19:09at the KDTV headquarters station, and as they walk from
- 19:14the parking lot to the building, they're discussing wanting to
- 19:16know why they moved them into this shit stained time slot.
- 19:20Nobody watches TV at 2:00 AM, Sam says.
- 19:23They need to know what they think their crew did wrong.
- 19:27Bash asked if they have an appointment.
- 19:29Sam says they're storming into the meeting and an appointment
- 19:31would defeat the purpose of storming.
- 19:34Bash says Bitchin as they head into Tom's office, who is
- 19:39practicing his golf swing and says you win some, you lose
- 19:42some. I guess Sam says enough with the
- 19:45platitudes. They're there to talk and they
- 19:47want to know why they were moved to 2:00 AM.
- 19:51Tom lies and explained to them that they were replaced with a
- 19:53men's wrestling show. They asked why Tom just says
- 19:57because he wants to glow at 2:00 AM and men's wrestling at 10:00
- 20:01AM. He asked them both inside his
- 20:03office, though the original Glow was on syndication, so nobody
- 20:09knew to be the politics behind it.
- 20:12I would start it. I would always start my sun
- 20:15Saturday mornings with cartoons. It was always the same ones.
- 20:20Master the Universe, Thundercats, GI Joe,
- 20:23Transformers and then a certain time.
- 20:25I believe maybe around 11 W Super Saturday Morning
- 20:28Superstars and around 10 AMI would always look forward to the
- 20:31gorgeous ladies of wrestling up until I got grounded and told no
- 20:36I can't watch this. Can't believe I got grounded all
- 20:40because of the skit. All right, so later after the
- 20:44meeting, Bash tells the entire girls that they gave the men's
- 20:47wrestling show their time slot and the reason being is because
- 20:50they are better. They fly higher, they hit
- 20:52harder. The rest of the girls are
- 20:54disappointed. Ruth knows exactly what the
- 20:56truth as to why. Ruth says they fly higher and
- 20:59hit harder because of physics. Bash says fuck physics.
- 21:03He tells him he needs them to take everything they got and
- 21:05push it all the way to the limit.
- 21:08Carmen says she don't know what else they can do.
- 21:10They've been training almost every day.
- 21:13Bash yells at Carmen, saying he doesn't need to hear excuses.
- 21:16He needs to hear results. Carmen says OK and apologizes.
- 21:21Cherry tells her not to apologize.
- 21:24She turns to Bash and tells him fine, he will get bigger moves
- 21:29or they will get bigger moves. Bash says That's what he wants
- 21:33to hear. He knows this is going to be
- 21:35hard, but he believes in miracles and they are going to
- 21:38make a miracle happen. I love how Sherry comes back and
- 21:44asserts her female dominance. She has that.
- 21:47Don't fuck with my girls. My toddy.
- 21:50Earlier she told you Lana, that she was Junk Shane.
- 21:52If she gets her way, she will stay Junk Shane.
- 21:54I mean, why not right here? She's been gone for half the
- 21:59year, making ATV show and being insecure in front of a bunch of
- 22:02men trying to direct her. But she trusts Sam Sylvia, so
- 22:09she went back to him. And this moment she decides
- 22:11nobody's going to yell at these girls when it's none of their
- 22:14fault and in front of her. So she tells Bash to stop
- 22:18yelling. They will get it done.
- 22:22Also, Bash asking for a miracle. I don't know about y'all, but it
- 22:27reminds me so much of when ABC sportscaster Al Michaels is
- 22:30yelling on commentary. Do you believe in miracles after
- 22:34the US national hockey team beat the Soviet national team at the
- 22:371980 Lake Placid Winter Olympic Games to advance to the middle
- 22:42round? So Bash saying Miracle is like
- 22:44he watched that moment. He's been waiting for a moment
- 22:46like this to say it. I mean, he is a wrestling fan
- 22:49after all. He wants to copy catchphrases,
- 22:55looks he was standing in front of his mirror looking up at.
- 23:02He was looking up at one of his favorite wrestlers and posing as
- 23:05him back to the show. Bash asked if Sam has anything
- 23:10to add. Sam says no, not at all.
- 23:14He's added all he could over the last 10 weeks.
- 23:16He just don't think he could possibly add anymore at this
- 23:19point. They all agree, Debbie says that
- 23:22if they break their bodies and wrestle harder, would they
- 23:25magically get their time slot back?
- 23:27Bash says yes. Thank you Debbie.
- 23:30He has heard it from Tom Grant that this is what they have been
- 23:33missing. Debbie turns to look at Ruth,
- 23:36who is still mad at her from the last episode.
- 23:38She then turns to Bash and as in that they both met with Tom
- 23:41Grant without her. Bash apologized to the Debbie
- 23:46saying that it was a guy thing. They had to storm the gates.
- 23:49Sam says not to get back up on her feminist high horse.
- 23:52They didn't leave her out. They just think her focus should
- 23:55be on performing this week against Ruth, and they have a
- 23:57big match coming up. The continuing table of the
- 24:00bereaved mother and the insane Russian Sam looks at the rest of
- 24:06the girls and tells them they're going to be posting more matches
- 24:09later in the afternoon. Bash whispers something in Sam's
- 24:14ear and Sam calls for Jenny to create another gold jumpsuit for
- 24:18Cherry. He couldn't say this on his own.
- 24:22He had to whisper Daddy's ear. Don't forget.
- 24:28To Oh yeah. Hey, don't forget you need to
- 24:30create another costume for Cherry.
- 24:37And don't forget to. Also, we're having a match
- 24:44between them to what Loser leaves town?
- 24:53Match. You couldn't say this.
- 25:00Yes, he couldn't. Shit Bash whisper something into
- 25:05Sam's ears, Sam. Because Sam called for Jenny to
- 25:08create another code judgment for Yolanda, for Cherry.
- 25:11Yolanda speaks up saying that it's her costume.
- 25:13Sam says they are doing a Luther League town match.
- 25:16It was Bash's idea. It's going to be Chola junk
- 25:20chain versus black junk chain. Jesus.
- 25:23Sort of like the South Central turf war offensive.
- 25:27Cherry rolls her eyes at Yolanda, who is scared that
- 25:30Cherry might be taking her spot. Bash doesn't Enough talking.
- 25:35He calls Carmen, saying that a lot of riding.
- 25:39Bash says enough talking. He calls Carmen saying that a
- 25:43lot is riding on her this week. Do not disappointment him.
- 25:48He claps his hand and everyone walks away, muttering under
- 25:51their breath. Ruth asked Debbie what time does
- 25:54she want to rehearse today? Debbie says any time, really,
- 25:57from sun up to sundown. It won't make a difference.
- 26:00Her of all people should know that.
- 26:02She walks away, leaving Ruth annoyed by that next scene.
- 26:08Cherry's watching a tape of Carmen's brother Russell taking
- 26:12notes. Kurt, playing by Carlito, is
- 26:15training with another wrestler. He gets on the top of the rope
- 26:18and continuously yells chop chop, chop, chop.
- 26:22He jumps from the top and performs a double X handle on
- 26:24the back of his opponent and then goes for the pin.
- 26:27Cherry jumps up and down and wants to add that chop on her
- 26:30list. Carmen says they can make
- 26:33something similar. Cherry asks why can't they use
- 26:36that move. Carmen says that the lumberjack
- 26:38chop is Kirk's signature move. If they use it, that would be
- 26:42considered stealing. Jerry says it's a wrestling
- 26:45move. They're wrestlers.
- 26:46What is going to happen to her Gets sued, Carmen says.
- 26:50It's just isn't done. You don't steal another person's
- 26:52finisher. Jerry tells Carmen not to make
- 26:55this hard on his C to be. They're sitting on a gold minded
- 26:58moves. Use them.
- 26:59Carmen continues playing with her pad and pad.
- 27:04I hate to say it, but I'm going to.
- 27:06We live in a society today. We live in a society.
- 27:10No, really. Back then the finisher was
- 27:13protected. You had Hulk Hogan with a leg
- 27:15drop, Macho Man, Renny Savage Flying Hubble drop, the Middle
- 27:19Dollar Man or Virgo with a chokehold and they just caused
- 27:21the middle dollar dream because it made you go to sleep.
- 27:23It is basic move. Wrestlers had basic finishers
- 27:27and other wrestlers from other companies would be like let's
- 27:30use that move and have that other wrestler kick out of it.
- 27:33And the concept of a basic wrestling move as a finisher
- 27:37continued on into the late 90s. Shawn Michaels with a kick to
- 27:40the face. Jake Roberts or Raven with ADT
- 27:44which drops them face first on their head.
- 27:48The Rock doing the People's Elbow which was basically an
- 27:50elbow drop. Even the powerbomb from a 7 foot
- 27:55tall Diesel. Those moves are used today.
- 27:58Just normal moves, kick to the face done almost every 5 minutes
- 28:03and matches. ADT uses a setup for a top rope
- 28:06elbow drop and then the leg drop.
- 28:09I used to work an entire match using all those moves.
- 28:12No big deal. Everybody steals moves from
- 28:16other people when back then was protected and I don't know about
- 28:20the sewing part. I don't think Hulk Hogan called
- 28:23up a girl from Global saying to stop using his move before doing
- 28:25another basic move to score the win.

- 30:20Next scene, Ruth is at a gym in the locker room area.
- 30:24Justine walks in and she gets asked about school.
- 30:27Justine says who cares? She asked Ruth if she knows Gina
- 30:30the Machina is closing out this film fest at the Highland Park
- 30:33Theater Wednesday. Justina seen wearing the Dead
- 30:36Milkman Metaphysical graffiti T-shirt.
- 30:39The album Metaphysical Graffiti was released in 1995, years
- 30:43after this season takes place. And she did another another.
- 30:48What a goof moment when she was wearing a shirt that wasn't
- 30:51supposed to be out there in 1984 yet, or 1985 yet last season.
- 30:59Justine says it's a small and obscure festival that only shows
- 31:02banned horror films from the late 70s, but it's still
- 31:05awesome. She hands Ruth a flyer and tells
- 31:07her she should go. Justine says they gave Sam a
- 31:10bunch of seats to fill if he could.
- 31:13She invited some people, but she just thought it would mean a
- 31:16lot. If Ruth was there, then she is
- 31:18like his friend. Ruth Asked if he said that about
- 31:21her, Justine says she don't know.
- 31:23He just seems to like Ruth more than anyone else but Sam.
- 31:27It's all relative. Justine walks away, leaving Ruth
- 31:30looking down at the flyer, wondering if she should go.
- 31:35Next scene, Cherry and Carmen are showing Debbie and Ruth what
- 31:38they're going to do in the ring. Cherry tells Debbie what she's
- 31:42going to do. Cherry throws Carmen to the
- 31:44rope. Carmen reverses it.
- 31:46On the way back, Carmen kick Cherry in the gut.
- 31:48She tells Ruth that she's going to do a suplex.
- 31:50Debbie and Ruth are across the ring from each other, unsure of
- 31:53this training moment. Carmen gets up and tells Ruth
- 31:57then she's going to work the leg, stomping on cherry leg as
- 32:00well as putting her knee on top of the leg.
- 32:02Carmen says to top it off, Ruth is going to do a submission
- 32:04hold. She cherry.
- 32:06She places cherry into a half Boston crab and Cherry tapped
- 32:09out. Debbie explains that Livery Bell
- 32:12should have the finishing move. Carmen says they'll just reverse
- 32:15it. Ruth interrupts and says that
- 32:16doesn't make any sense. She is supposed to be totally
- 32:18distraught because her daughter was just kidnapped.
- 32:21She can't win the first time around.
- 32:23She wins. There's no chase, there's no
- 32:24chase and there's no story. Debbie says she understands the
- 32:28concept of chase, but Liberty Bell is on a winning streak.
- 32:33She's won fifteen straight matches.
- 32:37She asked Carmen. Wouldn't it be a little weird
- 32:38for her to suddenly do to someone who has ring rust?
- 32:42Ruth asked if ring rust is a thing or does she just make up.
- 32:45Make it up just to make her feel shitty?
- 32:48Carmen asks. They're OK.
- 32:49Usually they do a better job at keeping their weird friendship
- 32:52stuff out of the ring. Debbie says it won't be a
- 32:54problem for her, but she hopes Ruth can keep up.
- 32:57Carmen asks for them to do the suplex outside the ring.
- 33:02In another area of the gym, Artie is talking to the ozone
- 33:04girl. Stacy tells Artie maybe she
- 33:06should just try that roll thing that Carmen roll talked about
- 33:09earlier. Artie asks why?
- 33:12So that klepto twins can steal it?
- 33:15Stacey asked. How can they steal it if they're
- 33:17literally in the same match? Don says it's not their fault
- 33:21you still have to play a terrorist, Rd. says.
- 33:24Actually, it is. She had an exit strategy.
- 33:27Merrill says she understands her play, for she too have been the
- 33:31victim of theft. Jenny says she did not still
- 33:34feel he was never hers, Merrill says.
- 33:37But you know what was hers? The jacket.
- 33:40Jerry yells and asks what is up with everyone.
- 33:43They have a big match coming up. Everyone needs to focus.
- 33:46Yolanda tells Jerry to calm down.
- 33:48They're just airing their shit out.
- 33:50Jerry asked her to not to tell her to calm down, but why
- 33:55doesn't she? Yolanda says she is calm and
- 33:58ready for their tango. Jerry yells at Jolanda to stop
- 34:02footing her. She's straight as she's married.
- 34:05Yolanda smirks out. She eyes cherry up and down.
- 34:08Stacey tells Artie Darren actually gifted show women.
- 34:12Everyone starts arguing with each other.
- 34:14Artie tells the sisters. Our harms.
- 34:17Artie tells the sisters they are hands with hacky jokes.
- 34:20Jenny says she did unspeakable things for that jacket.
- 34:23Melrose says she knows Jenny sewed extra sequence of the
- 34:26crotch area of her costume. Jenny says maybe her vulva is
- 34:30overly sensitive. Carmen tells everyone to shut up
- 34:34and ask them if they want to stay at 2:00 AM because if
- 34:37they're wasting a lot of time talking about complete nonsense,
- 34:41she asked them If they want to know why the men are better,
- 34:43it's because they shut up, they do their jobs and they don't
- 34:46talk about their feelings ever. So stop arguing about petty
- 34:49bullshit and get back to stretching because this week is
- 34:52going to be impossible. Everything can be hard and the
- 34:55girls might not even be able to walk by at the end of all this,
- 34:59but the wrestling is going to be great.
- 35:02She looks around the room and asks who's ready to do this.
- 35:06The scene changes to a training montage with Far From Over by
- 35:09Frank Stallone playing in the background.
- 35:13The montage starts with the girls jogging transitions into
- 35:16everyone trying to do sit ups. They transition back to the
- 35:19jogging with Devi and Ruth leading the charge.
- 35:22It transitions back to them doing sit ups while Carmen's
- 35:24count has gone up to 48. Next transition is cherry
- 35:28picking Avilanda over her shoulder with Carmen helping out
- 35:32Sheila wrenching Carmen's arm. Ruth and Devi having problems.
- 35:36Carmen tells them both to look at each other and communicate.
- 35:39This is basic stuff. Transition over to Rhonda,
- 35:44trying to hit a dropkick on Carmen but can't seem to get it
- 35:47right. Carmen yells at Cherry, telling
- 35:50her she has to get along with his butt over her shoulder or
- 35:52this isn't going to work. Ruth asks Debbie if she's ready,
- 35:55and Debbie says yes. Ruth runs up to Debbie for a
- 35:58Sunset flip, which is a dive over an opponent who is mostly
- 36:02facing her, usually bent over forwards, catching the opponent
- 36:05of waistlock from behind, landing back first behind the
- 36:08opponent. You need to look it up, Sunset
- 36:11Flip. Carmen says that what they did
- 36:14was closer to what they were trying to do earlier.
- 36:16Cherry, who's been watching them train, scoffs and rolls.
- 36:19Her eyes transition to Rhonda jumping on her bed and kicking
- 36:22the wall behind her bed. She jumps up and drop, kicks the
- 36:24wall again, and lands safely on the bed.
- 36:27She realized she can do more of this and continues to jump off
- 36:29the bed for the dropkick and land safely on the mattress
- 36:33which transitions over to her during the move in the ring on
- 36:36Carmen who tells her she did a great job.
- 36:39Same with Tammy who jumped from the middle rope to splash of
- 36:41padded mat in the middle of the ring.
- 36:43Another transition to Stacy saying she doesn't know what to
- 36:46do as Artie runs up to her over and over again.
- 36:48Stacy grabs a hold of Artie's waist and spins around as they
- 36:51all celebrate. They did a basic move, all basic
- 36:54move guys. This transitions to Debbie and
- 36:57Ruth doing the sunset flip in real time and it connects
- 37:00Melrose Coop Slam. Jenny Sheila is training with
- 37:03Carmen again, as all three producers are aside watching
- 37:06them go over the moves. Debbie clinches the submission
- 37:09move by Ruth and has if she's ready.
- 37:10Ruth says yes and she taps out. Everyone cheers.
- 37:14Carmen looks over at Bash, who gives Carmen the thumbs up for
- 37:17training the girls. Next thing, Sam grabs his keys
- 37:23and cigarettes from the table and tries to wake up Justine,
- 37:26who's sleeping on the couch. Sam says.
- 37:28OK, wake up, let's go, Hey Sleeping Beauty.
- 37:32He continues to push her, but she's snoring.
- 37:35He says. Oh, you're kidding me.
- 37:36Come on, I hate going those things by myself, Justine, he
- 37:40continues to yell. Oh, hey, Billy.
- 37:42Hey, Billy's here. She.
- 37:44Still doesn't wake up, he says. All right, fine.
- 37:48Sam covers Justine, then click Sam covers Justine and then
- 37:52takes the covers off her, immediately thinking she's going
- 37:55to wake up. But she doesn't, he says.
- 37:57Wow. Well, sleep tight covers her
- 38:00again and leaves. He arrives at the Film Festival
- 38:03Gina Machina. He passes by a poster that
- 38:06reads. I'm with the band, a list of the

- 43:07Back to the episode. Sam walks right in and he looks
- 43:10around, wondering where to sit at the movie theater.
- 43:13He sits all the way in the back, getting seats by himself, trying
- 43:16to make himself comfortable and tapping his knee, waiting for
- 43:20the movie to start. Ruth walks in with popcorn in
- 43:23her hand and sits behind Sam. Sam turns to look behind him and
- 43:27ask what she is doing. Ruth says she wasn't sure.
- 43:29If he wanted. Her to sit near him, Sam says.
- 43:32So you you chose to sit right behind me.
- 43:36It's creepy. Ruth gets up from her chair and
- 43:38jumps over to the chair in front of her so that she can sit next
- 43:41to him. She tells him James Dean invited
- 43:43her and ask where she is. Sam says she's sleeping.
- 43:46He SH Ruth asked if she's OK. Sam says.
- 43:49T doesn't know. Sam asked Ruth to where her
- 43:52boyfriend Russell is. Did he ditch her tonight?
- 43:55Ruth says no. They didn't become a thing.
- 43:57It kind of failed before it started going back to Debbie
- 44:00blocking her from having that date.
- 44:02And Usher asks Sam to induce the film and say a few words from
- 44:05all the way back there if he likes.
- 44:07He tells the usher he just wants to skip that part.
- 44:10Ruth asks Sam to say something. Annoyed by Ruth, Sam stands up
- 44:14and grabs the microphone and says This is Gina the Machina.
- 44:17He made it when he was younger and he thinks there's something
- 44:19good, Says there's some good stuff in it he doesn't remember.
- 44:23The audience clap their hands and the movie starts.
- 44:26The movie shows scenes of a meet grinder and Ruth asks if this is
- 44:28the one with the anal birth. What?
- 44:32Sam again looks at her, annoyed after an hour or so watching a
- 44:36movie to create his role on a fake movie.
- 44:38Some of the names are listed in the credits of Sam's Movie.
- 44:41Gina Machina are crew members on GLOW, Gina being played by April
- 44:45Watkins from Costume and water Department, Steve Voorgies and
- 44:49Vanessa Rago from Art Department.
- 44:50David Garcia from the sound department.
- 44:52Vince Typical from Accounting, Chris Peress, cinematographer
- 44:56Amanda Hamaday, Victor Vuccio, David Labrich, Steve Solomon,
- 45:01Glenn Majors and Brian Hoffman for the camera and electrical
- 45:04department. Four teenagers approached Sam.
- 45:08A kid named Matt, according to the I The IMDb page, played by
- 45:12Philip Leibs, tells him he's a genius.
- 45:14Sam says wow and not to call him.
- 45:17Hit by his last name, Mr. Sylvia, and thanks them.
- 45:20Franklin, played by Christopher Avila, tells Sam his use of
- 45:23jumping the line and how it ate and the dysfunctional
- 45:26disorientation factor is masterful and Justine told him
- 45:30they would love it. Sam asks.
- 45:33How do they know Justine. Matt tells Sam they are on AAV
- 45:37Club together. Sam is impressed as teenagers
- 45:40walk away. Ruth smiles and tells Sam that
- 45:42he has a whole fan club of teenagers that adore his movies
- 45:47that they are for sure too young to see.
- 45:50Sam smirks. Ruth tells Sam she almost didn't
- 45:52make it. She thought he was still angry
- 45:54with her. Sam says he's not angry with
- 45:56her, but he's an insecure old man.
- 45:58He gets defensive. They both sit there and Ruth
- 46:02tells them she liked this movie, Sam says.
- 46:04Oh, come on, really, she says. Yes, those kids were right.
- 46:08It was disorienting. He was going, he was doing his
- 46:11own thing. She would apologize and says he
- 46:14still is doing his own thing. Sam says Ruth is right, that he
- 46:19Sam says Ruth is right. That was him 20 years ago, and
- 46:22he had his hands all over everything, making everybody
- 46:24crazy. When he was trying to get that
- 46:26shot at the meat grinder, he made his operator so frustrated
- 46:29that he quit and, like, almost threw the camera at him.
- 46:32Sam had to shoot the rest of the movie by himself, and he did, he
- 46:36says he's accustomed to a certain level of failure.
- 46:38He's just the one project usually goes wrong.
- 46:42He knows exactly what happened. It's usually him getting in his
- 46:44own way or not listening to the other people, but with the glow,
- 46:49he has no idea why they shit. Can them?
- 46:51No clue. None.
- 46:54Ruth says she knows why and tells Sam the real reason Tom
- 46:57Grant called her in a meeting for Ruth says she knows why.
- 47:04It tells Sam the real reason Tom Grant called her in for a
- 47:08meeting in his hotel room and he came on to her, but she took off
- 47:11before anything happened. But he wanted to sleep with her
- 47:14and she didn't give him what he wanted.
- 47:15And maybe that's probably the reason why Sam asked if she's
- 47:18kidding. Ruth says.
- 47:19No, she's not, Sam says. Fuck that guy, Tam Grant.
- 47:23What a sleazebag dickhead. Ruth asked if he's upset.
- 47:26He says no, he's not upset. He's grateful the show is being
- 47:30burnt out because of a Dickhead Network president.
- 47:32Not because of him, not because of her, but because of that
- 47:35asshole. That's great.
- 47:38But because of that asshole, that's great.
- 47:40It's the best news he heard all week about Tom Grant, the
- 47:43douchebag Mariah, the usher played by Paloma Esparza.
- 47:47Ravinov comes up and asks him to leave already.
- 47:50They apologize and walk out of the movie theater Next seeing
- 47:56Debbie's at a car wash and she notices Mark a few feet away who
- 47:59is holding baby Randy. She smiles and gets out of the
- 48:02car as she makes her way over with a huge smile on her face.
- 48:05A woman walks up and Mark and kisses him on the lips.
- 48:09Debbie stops dead in her tracks. Debbie tries to go back to her
- 48:14car, but she just lunges forward to meet up with them and says
- 48:18good morning to Randy, Mark, and now his new girlfriend.
- 48:22Mark is unsure of this, but Debbie tells him to calm down.
- 48:26She would just love the pleasure of knowing the name of the woman
- 48:28that has been spending time with their son.
- 48:32Mark says They are both taking a personal day.
- 48:34Mark's secretary introduced herself to Debbie.
- 48:37Yes, Susan. Debbie immediately recognizes
- 48:39her as a secretary as they spoke on the phone about the bed.
- 48:41When she asked if Mark ended up buying the bed and is she
- 48:44enjoying it, Susan nonchalantly says yes.
- 48:48It's nice. Mark apologizes, and this is not
- 48:51how he wanted Debbie to find out.
- 48:54Debbie says that it's fine. Life doesn't always go as
- 48:56planned. Debbie tells Randy she loves
- 48:59him, tells both of them she has to run, enjoy the rest of their
- 49:02day. Debbie walks away crying.
- 49:07Next scene, Sam shows up at KDTV looking for Tom's parking spot.
- 49:11He parks behind Tom's car. He gets out of his car, takes
- 49:14out a tire from his trunk and hits Tom windshield and hood of
- 49:18the car. Glenn comes up from around the
- 49:21corner and stands there watching Sam get in the car.
- 49:24Glenn says Tom pisses off a lot of people.
- 49:27It could have been anyone. That was a short ass scene.
- 49:30He just needed to like, break everything.
- 49:34Next thing Ruth walks into the gym with a smile on her face, on
- 49:37the bleachers Jenny's making out with Phil, Russell says don't
- 49:42mind him just setting up for the both of them.
- 49:45He knows he's super busy. Sarcastically.
- 49:49He turns and sees Ruth, who tells him to have a good show.
- 49:51He tells her the same. Justine walks in and asks for
- 49:55Sam. He's not in the office.
- 49:57Sam walks in and says good evening to Ruth and Justine.
- 50:00Justine says she's such an idiot she can't believe she fell
- 50:02asleep. Sam tells her to meet her
- 50:04friends and Tim tells her he met her friends in the AV Club and
- 50:10asks her if she wants to man the booth tonight.
- 50:12He then turns to Phil and Jenny. He says hey Phil, yeah hi, we're
- 50:18shooting the show tonight. OK, he's not firing him, but he
- 50:22just want to give him a little more time to finger his
- 50:24wrestler. Backstage, Jenny stops kissing
- 50:28Phil and says that Sam is so inappropriate, laugh and then
- 50:32goes back to making out with Phil.
- 50:35Sam turns to Justine, tells her to just watch the shots and tell
- 50:38him what she sees. He knows she has opinions.
- 50:40Justine smiles and walks away. Ruth smiles, also witnessing
- 50:45this wholesome moment, and tells him he just looks so much
- 50:48younger. Sam tells her shut up.
- 50:52He walks away and she laughs. Debbie walks in finally, after
- 50:56the whole car wash thing. She's annoyed she has to share a
- 51:00locker room with Daisy, Don, and Melrose, who are so loud.
- 51:03So she walks in Sam's office and tells him she needs her own
- 51:06space. Some of us need time to sink and
- 51:09breathe and wash the shed off the world off of us before we
- 51:12get to go be a fucking pride American Princess.
- 51:16Damn. Sam tells her to ghost.
- 51:19Sam tells her to save the misdirected anger for the ring.
- 51:23He tells her to sit down. Take it easy.
- 51:24He hands her his flask of vodka and she drinks it.
- 51:28She drinks it all. He tells her that divorce is
- 51:31rough. He tells her that divorce is
- 51:35rough and she will get through it.
- 51:36He gets up from his desk and tells her to get ready in the
- 51:38office. He just doesn't want her
- 51:39murdering anybody just yet. Sam walks out of the office.
- 51:43Debbie continues crying. She grabs a cigarette from the
- 51:49table and find Sam's secret stash of coke.
- 51:52She places some of her palm, sniffs it, and she begins to
- 51:56calm down for a bit. Next scene, Chola junk chain
- 52:02versus black junk chain is happening.
- 52:04I can't announce it like this. All right, fine.
- 52:08Bash is announcing it. The loser leaves town and it's
- 52:12really heating up. Cherry tells you Lana that it's
- 52:15about to light up as a Cherry tells Yolanda there's about to
- 52:18be lights out for her. She does the chop motion as a
- 52:22crowd gets into it and starts saying chop as well.
- 52:25Chop, chop, chop, Bash says. There's a lot of chopping in
- 52:29this crowd. It looks like Black is refusing
- 52:31to crack. Oh dear God, Cherry gets on the
- 52:33top rope and Bash continues. She's not going to let Cholo
- 52:36Junk Chain take was hers Cherry Lance and chopping you along his
- 52:40back. In Sam's office, all the girls
- 52:45are watching from the top trying to tell Justine who is directing
- 52:48the episode. Jenny walks in and asks why
- 52:50don't Why did anyone tell her they were watching it from up
- 52:53there? Tammy asks.
- 52:54When would they have told her during her match or why she was
- 52:57tonguey Mr. Surfer Boy Justine shushes everyone telling them
- 53:01that she is working. Yolanda rows up Cherry a key
- 53:05task. If Yo-yo is really going to win
- 53:07one, Jerry doesn't want to be a generic rapper anymore and tells
- 53:10Keith to count to 3/2. Keith asks Sam to get out of his
- 53:14ring 3. Sam says he's the director.
- 53:16He can do whatever he wants. As he's filming the ending,
- 53:19Keith announces Cheryl, a junk chain, as the winner.
- 53:26Backstage, Ruth and Debbie are getting ready to go out.
- 53:28What? Bash tells the crowd it's the
- 53:30rematch they all been waiting for.
- 53:32Out first is Zoe to destroy Ya. In the ring, Livery Bell yells
- 53:36at Zoya that she wants her daughter Savannah Rose back and
- 53:38called Zoya A calming scum. Zoya asked if she means the
- 53:42Moscow Potato Blossom. The only mother she knows now is
- 53:46Mother Russia. Livery Belle yells that she
- 53:50wants her daughter as she runs up to Zoya who double kicks her
- 53:52back. Zoya does the sunset flip spot
- 53:55on Liberty and it goes well. Debbie gets up and is lost.
- 54:00Ruth. Debbie gets up and she is lost.
- 54:04Ruth looks a bit confused. Debbie kicks Ruth down.
- 54:07Keith checks in on Debbie and tells her to slow down.
- 54:10Debbie pushes Keith out of the way.
- 54:12Ruth locks up with Debbie and pushes through the corner,
- 54:14checking up on her, asking if she's OK.
- 54:17Debbie pushes Ruth back. Debbie is coked out.
- 54:21Debbie kicks Ruth in the gut and hits a suplex up in the office.
- 54:26Sheila says it's like watching a speeding train is riveting.
- 54:29Back in the ring, the Liberty Bell raises her hand in the air.
- 54:31She looks like a mess, trying to walk.
- 54:34She'd kick Zoe on her back again, pushing her down.
- 54:37Debbie is unhinged. She's looking out at the crowds,
- 54:40getting different reactions, feeling a little bit dizzy.
- 54:43She gets Zoe in the submission mood, working.
- 54:45The leg half crab sinks it in some more.
- 54:48You hear Debbie's heartbeat as the crowd continues to chant her
- 54:51name. But then you also hear a crack,
- 54:57and the episode ends with Root yelling Debbie.
- 55:00The credits roll. No music.
- 55:03It's just silent credits for his entirety.
- 55:07OK? In 1987, there was a freak
- 55:10accident on the set of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.
- 55:13You heard me describe the sunset flip as a, you know, just a
- 55:16basic move as I was watching, as I was watching this episode
- 55:19twice, you know, because it just dawned on me that they were
- 55:25practicing the move that legit injured one of the girls in 1987
- 55:29in a master of pitted Susie spirit played by Laurie Thompson
- 55:32and Debbie, Debbie Tot versus Mina and Micah, AKA the
- 55:36Headhunters. Susie attempted do a sunset flip
- 55:38on Micah and Susie's arm completely did a 180 and broke
- 55:42out of socket. Susie Spirit would go on to
- 55:47recover, but as the Headhunters were no longer with the company
- 55:50upon her return, they had to create a new one to allow Susie
- 55:53to get her revenge. On June 23, 2017, Alberta
- 55:58Lupiton posts an article on the Law and Crime website about Lori
- 56:01Thompson and what she's been doing since her after her time
- 56:04with the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.
- 56:06When she joined the company, The Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling,
- 56:08she had no experience. She was a dancer on the Las
- 56:11Vegas Strip looking to break into television.
- 56:15I saw this interview for a TV show over at the Riviera Hotel,
- 56:18she said. I thought that's perfect, But
- 56:20she didn't know the wrestling company until their interview.
- 56:23Thompson got ready to leave because she had no experience in
- 56:25that kind of thing. They changed her mind, Matt
- 56:28Timber said. We're just creating something
- 56:30brand new, something that's never been done before, she
- 56:33said. We're going to look, we're going
- 56:36to use the hook of wrestling, but what we're going to do is
- 56:38make these women superheroes. The next thing you know, I was
- 56:42in GLOW. The experience didn't last
- 56:45forever ago. She left in 1987.
- 56:47Her life has changed a lot in the last 20 years.
- 56:51Thompson got her JD in the 90s, became a mother and has gone to
- 56:54teach at law at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas.
- 56:57She also works as an attorney at Greenberg Turret, specializing
- 57:01in intellectual property, and serves on the board for
- 57:03children's charity and the Nevada valet.
- 57:07She appeared in the first two seasons as wrestler Susie
- 57:09Spirit. It was fun, it was exciting and
- 57:12we were in it together so we were all helping each other out,
- 57:16Thompson told the outlet. As always, follow our social
