• 9:39
  Speaker 1: He letus have a little discussion.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: So let's talk about the first time you came in
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: contact with Gilmore Girls. Tell us about it, Rose the script,
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: What did you think?
• 9:54
  Speaker 7: So? I moved here from Chicago.
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: Chicago in November of two thousand and one, and it
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: was my birthday, and the very next day I had
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: the audition for Gypsy. I was so excited and I
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: went in and I knew that everybody was talking fast
• 10:17
  Speaker 8: on the show. That's all I really knew about the
• 10:19
  Speaker 8: show was how fast everybody talked.
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: So I decided to.
• 10:21
  Speaker 8: Give Gypsy an accent, and I went in and the
• 10:25
  Speaker 8: only note I got from Amy Sherman Palladino was Okay,
• 10:27
  Speaker 8: now go even faster. So that was the scene with
• 10:30
  Speaker 8: I can't look at this car anymore, and the.
• 10:33
  Speaker 7: Rest is history.
• 10:33
  Speaker 8: And I was so thrilled because I thought I was
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: going to do one episode and it ended up being
• 10:39
  Speaker 8: a seven year, lovely time and I just couldn't be
• 10:43
  Speaker 8: more grateful to be here with all of you, because
• 10:45
  Speaker 8: the fans, like Scott was saying earlier, we just love
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: you guys so much, and you make our lives so
• 10:51
  Speaker 8: rich and wonderful. When you think you get one job
• 10:54
  Speaker 8: in television and then it just goes away, this is
• 10:56
  Speaker 8: an enduring twenty five year thing, and don't you think
• 10:59
  Speaker 8: we should all do something really special for the twenty
• 11:01
  Speaker 8: fifth anniversary.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Emily, your first contact with Gilmore, what was that like?
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Do you remember it?
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 11:18
  Speaker 9: I remember, I remember getting the script and.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: No, I don't remember.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: But it's a good script and it's a good show.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: And I was when I went in. Yeah, I was like, uh, yeah,
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: talk fast. So I talked as fast as I could. Yeah.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: My girlfriend worked on the show and she goes, oh
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: my god, I can't talk that fast.
• 11:41
  Speaker 8: As a try, I always said, I don't talk too fast,
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: you listen too slow.
• 11:47
  Speaker 9: It's a good one.
• 11:48
  Speaker 8: I love being here because if Gilmore real. Gilmore fans
• 11:52
  Speaker 8: know that Missus Kim and Gypsy have never met. Never right,
• 11:58
  Speaker 8: Emily and Rose know each other. But if you think
• 12:00
  Speaker 8: about it, have Missus Kim and Gipsy ever been in
• 12:03
  Speaker 8: the same scene?
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: Never?
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: One that could be a nice spin off that could work. Gentlemen,
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: start your engines. Greg Henry, yeah, one of the great actors.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: What was your first experience with Gilmore?
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Well, my first.
• 12:28
  Speaker 10: Experience I think was was was on set as I
• 12:32
  Speaker 10: recall it, and uh.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: I met Amy.
• 12:37
  Speaker 10: We had a conversation and uh, and she was, uh,
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: very charming and very funny and and very quick, very fast,
• 12:46
  Speaker 10: spoke very fast actually, and uh. And then I went
• 12:50
  Speaker 10: to work on it and I think I think Jamie
• 12:52
  Speaker 10: Babbitt directed that one and uh and and that was
• 12:57
  Speaker 10: my first experience. And and then I, you know, I
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: was lucky have to do some.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: More Jamie Babbitt. Yes, Jamie Babbitt did a lot of episodes.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: She was did a couple of year, several a year.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: She directed the episode where I pushed Jess into the lake. Actually,
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: but on the walk up to that scene, right, there's
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: a walk and talk before I even do that.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Thirty takes we did.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: We were the first scene up and it was about
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: it was almost pushing lunch by the time we got
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: to do the lake push. And we only had the
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: opportunity to do one take because it would take so
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: long to read, you know, to dry his hair and
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: redo his makeup and you know, get him new clothes
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: because he would have to go all the way back
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: to base camp, which is here, and we shot it
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: somewhere over there, so it was just kind of one
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: take and then we went to lunch.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Most memorable scene, ted.
• 13:58
  Speaker 11: It has to be a little and that Sally and I.
• 14:02
  Speaker 11: By the way, Sally and I went to the same
• 14:04
  Speaker 11: high school in Portland, Oregon, if you can believe it,
• 14:08
  Speaker 11: and I had a little story lined up as you asked.
• 14:10
  Speaker 11: The first experience with Gilmore Girls was on the first
• 14:13
  Speaker 11: day on the set. Sally and I were sitting next
• 14:15
  Speaker 11: to each other in these director chairs. We hadn't even
• 14:18
  Speaker 11: talked to each other, but I knew that my dad
• 14:21
  Speaker 11: was purported to be her favorite teacher math teacher in
• 14:24
  Speaker 11: high school. And she was a big star from all
• 14:27
  Speaker 11: in the family when I was growing up, so I,
• 14:29
  Speaker 11: you know, I knew exactly who she was. And I
• 14:32
  Speaker 11: sat down next her and she goes, oh, it's so
• 14:34
  Speaker 11: hot today, just like today, right, And I said yeah,
• 14:38
  Speaker 11: and I like the summer's in Portland, Oregon. And she goes,
• 14:43
  Speaker 11: are you ed Rooney's son.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: She got it.
• 14:46
  Speaker 11: She got it. In that very moment, she remembered she
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: knew my dad. She saw this long face and she
• 14:51
  Speaker 11: recognized it. But then we had this lovely moment on
• 14:55
  Speaker 11: our steps. In one of the first episodes where little
• 14:58
  Speaker 11: romantic episode, it took a moment. I think it was
• 15:01
  Speaker 11: after Cinnamon had died, so we were kind of reconnecting.
• 15:05
  Speaker 11: And what I love about that moment, besides being with Sally,
• 15:09
  Speaker 11: was that Sam Phillips, who was one of my favorite
• 15:12
  Speaker 11: singer songwriters for the previous twenty years, had written the
• 15:16
  Speaker 11: Little Little you know how she writes these little yeah
• 15:19
  Speaker 11: moments and just for that thing. And so at the
• 15:22
  Speaker 11: Christmas party when I spoke to her, she said, yeah,
• 15:24
  Speaker 11: I wrote that just for you guys. And I'm like,
• 15:26
  Speaker 11: oh my god, one of my favorite writers, you know
• 15:29
  Speaker 11: alive wrote something specifically for us. I thought that was
• 15:33
  Speaker 11: so so cool. Oh and then t Bon Barnette, who
• 15:37
  Speaker 11: was her husband at the time, said hey, Sam really
• 15:42
  Speaker 11: wants to meet Lauren, and so I got to bring
• 15:45
  Speaker 11: Sam to meet Lauren. It was really cool, really cool
• 15:49
  Speaker 11: at the Christmas party.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Michael, Yeah, yeah, first experience with Gilmore Girls.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: What do you remember about it?
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: Well, it was before the show even aired. It was
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: just another thing that I did an audition for. And
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: it was supposedly four episodes about the I guess it
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: started about the seventh episode, but I had never seen it.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I had no idea what it was like. And I
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: got the script and I read it and I read
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: it again and I thought, now, is this laugh out
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: loud funny or is it something different? I never could
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: figure out, and then I got the part anyway, And
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: when I first came to work on it, I started
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: to hear about how fast we had to go because
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: what Amy and Daniel, her husband, who were both involved
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: in it, were great fans of nineteen thirty screwball comedies,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: which you may have seen on TCM or something like that.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: But they all just talked a mile a minute. Everything
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: went mile a minute, and so that's what they were thinking.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: And I found that out after I had the job
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: and started to learn this stuff.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: So it just rolls off the.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: Tongue really fast, no hanging around for anything. So my
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: first thing was that first day I started to work,
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: and then my first scene was with Scott and we
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: started our series long what is it clash? Yeah, I
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: was decorating the whole town for Halloween and he wanted
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with it. And so the first shot
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I remember very clearly doing was sneaking pumpkins up onto
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: the front steps of the cafe. And then about a
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: month ago I was on Scott's podcast and so we
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: were going to talk about that episode. So I watched
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: it again and that scene appeared nowhere, So I have
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: no idea whether I really shot that or I can't remember.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: Maybe I just forgot it or it just went away. Anyway,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: That's how it began. Fast talking that I think will
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: work for everybody.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: Have you ever worked on a show rose that required
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: you to speak so quickly?
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 18:04
  Speaker 8: This show and Scandal were the two where you really
• 18:07
  Speaker 8: had to move quickly. But I remember my very first
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: scene was with Ed Herman and Jared who played Dean.
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: And by the way, everyone asks me this, and I
• 18:15
  Speaker 8: must have said this maybe before to you, but they
• 18:17
  Speaker 8: ask which team.
• 18:18
  Speaker 7: I'm Team Dean, Because team Dean Dean, you know, maybe
• 18:22
  Speaker 7: not for Rory, but for me.
• 18:23
  Speaker 8: What a great kid. Now, not in a romantic way,
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: come on, but Gypsy loved Dean. She I love his car.
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: He had the best car, and that's how Gypsy judges
• 18:33
  Speaker 8: everyone whose car needs not so much work, you know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: But I loved him.
• 18:38
  Speaker 7: But it was a night shoot.
• 18:40
  Speaker 8: It's so crazy being back here because I was with
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: Ed Herman and Jared and we just had so much
• 18:45
  Speaker 8: fun late at night shooting. And I was telling Scott
• 18:49
  Speaker 8: this earlier. Just know that how you feel right now
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: in the sun. That's how hot it was. When we
• 18:54
  Speaker 8: were trying to pretend it was a chilli fall day
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: and stars Hallow, Connecticut. It was always right this hot
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: like most of the most of the time, or if
• 19:02
  Speaker 8: it was supposed to be really hot in the show,
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: it would really be freezing cold.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, says town hall meetings is like being in a
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: sweat lodge.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Michael and I lost a lot of weight.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: Everybody lost a lot of weight in those rooms in
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: our winter clothing. Right, it's a one hundred and twenty degrees
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: in there when they're Oh my god, probably fifteen sixteen
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: hours when we're doing those things because so many people
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: have to be covered. You know, Emily, did you ever
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: experience a town hall meeting?
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Were you in a town hall meeting?
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Ye? Ever?
• 19:30
  Speaker 9: I was so jealous of you guys.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, don't be we oh we It.
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: Was hotten there and it was enjoyable making the scenes
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: and they were great scenes, but boy, there was a
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: price to pay in sweat. We can't talk about Gilmore
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: Girls without talking about the Gilmore Girls, right, Lauren Graham
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: and Alexis Bludell.
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: I loved him.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: What was your Emily, your first experience working with both
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: Lauren and Rory.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: Like Rory, Alexis was just like Rory. She would always
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: be reading books. She was so quiet and we had
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: a termite scene and you know, I didn't want to
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: hurt her, so you know, she I was like poking
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: her with my thing, but I was trying to be
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: kind and she goes, Emily, just hit me with it.
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: It's easier, So I said, you sure, So I did,
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: and she liked that.
• 20:33
  Speaker 9: But she was just like her character.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: She just adorable, and Lauren was just like her character too,
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: by in many ways.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what about you? What about you? Rose?
• 20:47
  Speaker 8: I just remember the episode where it was the whole
• 20:51
  Speaker 8: town was split because you had broken up or there
• 20:54
  Speaker 8: were ribbons.
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: What was that one? Ribbons?
• 20:57
  Speaker 8: Yeah, And it was like I just love the line
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: you don't know a pistol from a pepperoni. And I
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: just remember thinking, like, you know, you fix your own truck.
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: So it was like Gypsy didn't care if Luke and
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: Laurel I ever got back together. But Lauren was so
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: much fun to work with and I played I played
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: it like Gypsy's secret was Gypsy really just thought everything
• 21:16
  Speaker 8: that Laura I did was just the best and she
• 21:18
  Speaker 8: just had a just a girl crush on her.
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: I just love that.
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: And then I remember getting to be in the Emily's
• 21:24
  Speaker 8: bachelor party, bachelorette party. Who's Emily? That was my favorite line,
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: Who's Emily? And I got to be in the house.
• 21:31
  Speaker 8: It was so exciting for Gypsy to be in the house.
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: It was really a cool experience.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: And you played more than one character.
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: That's right in the revival.
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: I'm so flattered that people are like I thought right
• 21:43
  Speaker 8: away the fans would go, that's Gypsy in a curly wig.
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: But I got to be Berta and Berta.
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: I had so much fun doing Berta because Amy wanted
• 21:52
  Speaker 8: a language that Spanish speakers cannot understand a thing of,
• 21:57
  Speaker 8: you know, she wanted it to sound just enough like Spanish,
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: like that no Spanish speaker could ever understand it.
• 22:02
  Speaker 7: So I made up my own language.
• 22:04
  Speaker 9: And lallo.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: A little more hello.
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: I just remember thinking I made a word for crab
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: meat that was kinda greppolo.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: Michael, do you remember the first time you worked with
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: either one of those?
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Well, I remember the first time I met Lauren. She
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: told me what my birthday was because it's the same
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: as hers. And right out of the choot. That was
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: the first connection I made with her, and we came
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: back to that often. And I don't remember what the
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: scenes were early on because I was just sort of
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: in a daze about what was going just getting through it.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: But I got to work with both of them quite
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: a bit, which was great. But of course I was
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: always sort of an antagonist toward almost everybody else.
• 23:01
  Speaker 12: That you run into in the show, so.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: We never had very sweet moments together.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I can't say that.
• 23:09
  Speaker 11: Ted, what about you, I'd have to say the Simmons
• 23:13
  Speaker 11: Wake episode. That was my big episode, by the way,
• 23:16
  Speaker 11: thank you, thank you, thank you. Yeah. But you know,
• 23:20
  Speaker 11: as a method actor, you have to imagine what if
• 23:22
  Speaker 11: your cat died, right, And so I spent some time
• 23:25
  Speaker 11: with that cat before they killed it because I asked
• 23:27
  Speaker 11: them to, because I needed to have that for my
• 23:30
  Speaker 11: No I didn't know, of course, not g whiz, but
• 23:34
  Speaker 11: still I wanted it to be an emotional moment. I
• 23:36
  Speaker 11: wanted to be true to the story, even though this
• 23:38
  Speaker 11: is a comedy, and it was so great to have
• 23:42
  Speaker 11: Alexis there right next to me when I'm having a
• 23:44
  Speaker 11: moment and she comforts me. So that was special. And
• 23:48
  Speaker 11: I'm very much in line with who she is too.
• 23:50
  Speaker 11: So she never really acted, by the way, She's not
• 23:55
  Speaker 11: that great of an actor. She just brings herself to it.
• 23:58
  Speaker 11: I guess that's what good acting is all about, though, right, No,
• 24:01
  Speaker 11: she's so sweet and she brings that to the camera
• 24:04
  Speaker 11: and keeps the tempo going too.
• 24:06
  Speaker 10: She's going, Greg, Well, I worked with Alexus most most
• 24:13
  Speaker 10: of the time. That's uh and uh. And and like
• 24:17
  Speaker 10: you said, I mean she was always just off reading,
• 24:20
  Speaker 10: you know, but she was always very very lovely and
• 24:22
  Speaker 10: sweet and smart and uh and funny and present and
• 24:26
  Speaker 10: in the moment and just a wonderful, wonderful actor.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 24:31
  Speaker 10: To contradict a little bit, but it's really amazing and uh.
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: And Lauren I I only.
• 24:38
  Speaker 10: Worked with one time, I think, uh and uh. And
• 24:44
  Speaker 10: it was when I was sort of screaming at Matt
• 24:49
  Speaker 10: and it was that's a whole sort of episode, and
• 24:52
  Speaker 10: so we we didn't really have much except like two
• 24:55
  Speaker 10: lines or something like that. So but I liked her
• 24:57
  Speaker 10: a lot, and I think she's really good.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: I remember getting up to We shot the pilot in Toronto,
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: as you all know, and there was a Unionville was
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: a town, right on the outskirts of Toronto, and that's
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: where the Lukes Diner was, and that's that opening shot
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: of the pilot. That's that nice little street in Unionville, Ontario.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: And I got into the set early on my first dad.
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: I was just hired as a as a guest star
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: for the pilot. But my manager said to me, you know,
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: the pilot script opens with Luke's Diner and it ends
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: with luke Diner, So I think there's something might be there.
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: This might be a chemistry check and if you pass
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: the test.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Maybe you can get more episodes. And I'm like, ah,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: probably maybe.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: And I got there a little early because I was
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: pretty excited to shoot and be there and just sort
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: of check out the Lukes Diner set. And I saw
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: I came in the back and I saw Lauren and
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: Alexis rehearsing those scenes, you know, the scenes they had
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: with the guys that are coming up and hitting on
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: them and all that, those funny scenes, and the.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: Chemistry between those two was electric. It was so amazing.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: That timing was there, the flow was there, everything was there,
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: and I really believed them as mother and daughter. So
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: I thought to myself, well, we've got something very very
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: special here, because if this works so well, then the
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: whole thing's going to work.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: And it did.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: And then when I did my first scene with Lauren
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: when she comes up and says a coffee, coffee, coffee,
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: I mean I could just tell that there was something
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: special there to work with and that it was going
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: to be a fun ride.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: So I was, you know, at the beginning of the
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: first day, I thought, this has a chance.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: You know, I really really thought it was a great
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: connection with everybody.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: Emily tell us about working with Keiko Agenna.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: She is, in my in my estimation, one of the
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: most unsung actresses in the business. I mean, she's incredibly
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: well crafted, works on a very deep level.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Well tell us about that.
• 27:15
  Speaker 9: Keiko and I hit it off immediately.
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: Everything Keiko, everything she did was honest and so pure.
• 27:26
  Speaker 9: So it was just a joy working with her.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: And by the end of the first season, I felt
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: like she was my kid, so I didn't have to
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: act anymore. So you know that scene where I kick
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: her out of the house, it was heartbreaking. It was
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: I almost couldn't talk because it's like when your child
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: lies to you for the first time and it rips
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: your guts out, but you have to for they're good,
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: you have to like kick.
• 27:49
  Speaker 9: Them out of the house or punish them.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: So all that stuff was so easy thanks to Keiko's
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: purity and her honesty in her work.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: I'm lucky, Rose, tell us your least favorite moment on Gilmour.
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: I knew you'd have a good surprise for me. I
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: have to say, what was going to do? The town
• 28:12
  Speaker 8: always smelled. The town either smelled like pickles, right, ratten eggs.
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: There was a smell.
• 28:18
  Speaker 8: So it was one of the episodes where they came
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: at me with a necklace made of trees like those
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: car freshener air fresheners, and wanted me to wear a
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: necklace made of those little pine trees. Yeah, and the
• 28:34
  Speaker 8: guy who made the the perps guy, was like, yeah,
• 28:37
  Speaker 8: I couldn't be in the same room with it, and
• 28:39
  Speaker 8: I was like, well, then, how am I going to
• 28:40
  Speaker 8: wear it for twelve hours? So that that was the
• 28:44
  Speaker 8: only bad memory that And when what was the episode
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: where the car whose car crashed through your diner window?
• 28:51
  Speaker 9: Oh?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, was that was that?
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: Remember? That?
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: Was that? TJ who?
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: Yes, that's right? Yeah, yes, thank you.
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: They know the show much better than any of us
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: you know that give yourselves a round of applause. So
• 29:07
  Speaker 8: I remember they wanted me to get under the car
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: and there was like this much room to get under
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: the car, so it was one hundred and eight in
• 29:13
  Speaker 8: the shade. So those are the only terrible memories where
• 29:16
  Speaker 8: the bad smelling car freshen her necklace and trying to
• 29:18
  Speaker 8: get under a car on a dolly, which was a
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: great ab workout to roll in and out underneath a car.
• 29:23
  Speaker 8: So I really missed those days of being gypsy having
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: to repair the cars. And I did learn a little
• 29:29
  Speaker 8: bit about automobile repair. Yeah, and I think I said
• 29:32
  Speaker 8: this last time I was here, but the motor oil
• 29:35
  Speaker 8: was always a one steak sauce, so I can't smell
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: that to this day. Scott, take after take of having
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: that sticky sauce on your hands. So that scene and
• 29:47
  Speaker 8: the scene I had with you, that was a fun
• 29:49
  Speaker 8: scene when it was like, you know, if guys you
• 29:51
  Speaker 8: strip your gears, you ride your brakes, and if if
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: we don't laugh when you make a joke, you think
• 29:55
  Speaker 8: we're stupid.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: I love that one. This is this is when I'm
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: investing getting Max.
• 30:00
  Speaker 7: You come and ask me about Jess, I think, I know, I.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Think okay, So it was just okay.
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: I just remember I hit a lot of car oil
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: to touch.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: I remember that episode too because I was working in Seattle,
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: which I did a lot of the time during the run,
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: and then it would come down for big chunks of
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: time and do the show. But this was one of
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: the first episodes of whatever season it was, and I
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: had to come down. I had to shoot everything I
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: did in one day because that's all I had. I
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: would fly down from Seattle, do the day, fly back
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: the next day.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I'd do a play up there.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Well this day a guy driving a car through the
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: front window. You get one shot at it. There was
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: only one time, and there was a lot of dialogue
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: and stuff before it getting up to it, and I
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: had one of those walking talks where I had a
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: long speech that I had to do word perfectly one time,
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: and so we'd ran, we'd run up to the crash
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: over and over again, and then finally, okay, we got
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: to do this, and uh, and we did. But it
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: was scary. It was scary, and then you watch the
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: guy drive a car.
• 31:15
  Speaker 12: Through the front of the set you've been working on
• 31:17
