- 0:50Speaker 3: Number one, I will say and I know that last
- 0:56Speaker 3: week's episode, meaning TV episode, was not your favorite. And
- 1:01Speaker 3: what I have learned from reading all the comments is
- 1:04Speaker 3: many fans agree with you. Yes. A lot of fans
- 1:09Speaker 3: actually said they when they're doing their rewatches they skip
- 1:12Speaker 3: that one.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah.
- 1:16Speaker 3: And a lot of people agreed like it wasn't very
- 1:19Speaker 3: luke like how he was, So you should feel okay
- 1:24Speaker 3: that it wasn't your favorite.
- 1:26Speaker 1: All of my self worth is tied up in this
- 1:29Speaker 1: podcast justice ever, so I'm going to have a good week.
- 1:37Speaker 1: This is good news, thank you.
- 1:40Speaker 3: The other one was we you know, look we try hard.
- 1:44Speaker 3: We try hard, but we blow it. Sometimes we totally do.
- 1:49Speaker 3: We messed up. We forgot Kyle.
- 1:51Speaker 1: What we did? We do that we do we forget?
- 1:54Speaker 3: Have you forgot him? You just didn't really like chime
- 1:56Speaker 3: in when Tara and I come.
- 1:58Speaker 1: Look, I was dialing your line at midnight and it
- 2:02Speaker 1: wasn't going through it. Just I tried. I tried, like heck, so.
- 2:05Speaker 3: We own our mistakes. I mean, I pride myself on
- 2:08Speaker 3: being very knowledgeable on many shows, not just this show.
- 2:13Speaker 3: And I did not place him. I screwed it up.
- 2:17Speaker 3: So our apologies and.
- 2:19Speaker 1: We were you know how many times bab Ruth struck out.
- 2:22Speaker 1: He struck out more than anybody in major league history. Okay,
- 2:27Speaker 1: don't feel bad, Yeah, don't feel so bad.
- 2:29Speaker 3: And he's like the best basill player of all time ever,
- 2:32Speaker 3: so it's like, yeah, you can't get one hundred if
- 2:36Speaker 3: you I love I love that everyone was reading Justice
- 2:40Speaker 3: for Kyle, Justice for Kyle, And I will tell you
- 2:43Speaker 3: this inside baseball story that could explain it. Many moons ago,
- 2:48Speaker 3: when Kyle made his first appearance, I did reach out
- 2:52Speaker 3: and try to book him because he's the kid from
- 2:55Speaker 3: the Sandlot and I can't remember why, but he wasn't available, right,
- 3:00Speaker 3: like he didn't want to do it or he doesn't
- 3:03Speaker 3: do interviews or whatever it was. For some reason he
- 3:05Speaker 3: couldn't do it. So I'm wondering did I purge him
- 3:08Speaker 3: from my mind? Like like, oh, he doesn't want to
- 3:13Speaker 3: come on our show?
- 3:14Speaker 4: Okay, he doesn't exist.
- 3:16Speaker 3: He doesn't exist, so that like I just forgot about him.
- 3:19Speaker 1: So anyway, imagine not wanting to come on this show.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Can you just getting that call and saying no? I
- 3:26Speaker 1: can't imagine.
- 3:27Speaker 3: It barely happens. That's the thing. The Gilmore stars love
- 3:32Speaker 3: Gilmore Girls, so pretty much everyone says yes. So I
- 3:36Speaker 3: think maybe that's why I was like, what he doesn't
- 3:39Speaker 3: want to come on? What? He didn't exist to me anymore?
- 3:44Speaker 1: Well, look, it was a very funny video. It still is.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Go check it out on Instagram account.
- 3:52Speaker 3: And and Justice for Kyle Kyle does Exist.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Again joined a movement hashtag out of it. We're going
- 4:01Speaker 1: to stand by.
- 4:01Speaker 3: We should ask one more time, Danielle. Maybe we just
- 4:04Speaker 3: ask his name's Chauncey, right, yeah, let's ask him one
- 4:08Speaker 3: more time. Maybe we just try one more because now
- 4:12Speaker 3: it's justice for Kyle all.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Right, So listen, I'm going to do a little piece
- 4:18Speaker 1: of business here everybody. I'm going to be at Louisville
- 4:22Speaker 1: Popcorn middle of June, so go to Louisville Popcon website

- 5:22Speaker 1: than never. You're pretty early, so good. Good to see yourself.
- 5:27Speaker 6: I made it right on time.
- 5:28Speaker 1: You were right there. Yeah, no, no, you'll go right
- 5:30Speaker 1: on times. Yeah, yeah, I mean late. You're pretty early, Yeah,
- 5:34Speaker 1: you're pretty early.
- 5:40Speaker 3: There's so much to talk about in this episode. I'm overwhelmed.
- 5:44Speaker 1: It's I gotta tell you. My my reaction to this
- 5:47Speaker 1: episode was just give me more, Matt Secret, more and
- 5:52Speaker 1: more and more more. I've never seen I've rarely seen
- 5:56Speaker 1: a better introduction to a character in my whole life.
- 5:58Speaker 1: This is the way you introduced I agree.
- 6:03Speaker 3: I know we talk about it when we go in order,
- 6:05Speaker 3: but like when he put that hat on, it said
- 6:07Speaker 3: press and he did that hit.
- 6:09Speaker 1: I still.
- 6:11Speaker 3: So awesome.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Genius, genius.
- 6:14Speaker 3: I am obsessed with him. I agree.
- 6:16Speaker 1: I think it was a television history and that that's
- 6:21Speaker 1: the thing that you would show, like I don't want
- 6:23Speaker 1: to be morbid, you know, but when we all croak,
- 6:26Speaker 1: you know, maybe they'll maybe they'll feature something for me.
- 6:29Speaker 1: I don't know, a cut like this is definitely Matt
- 6:33Speaker 1: will right like eighty years or whatever, it's going to
- 6:36Speaker 1: be sixty seventy years, they'll play that clip. That's that's
- 6:39Speaker 1: the beautiful clip. Sorry, Matt, I don't mean he's got
- 6:42Speaker 1: a lot, a lot of movie.
- 6:44Speaker 3: So I have a question for you guys. And it's
- 6:46Speaker 3: not a criticism, it's not a compliment. I don't know
- 6:49Speaker 3: what it is. The opening scene for me was good,
- 6:54Speaker 3: but it was so frenetic it kind of made me uncomfortable,
- 6:58Speaker 3: Like I was like, oh, did anybody else feel that?
- 7:02Speaker 1: Like there was you know what I think it is?
- 7:03Speaker 1: I think I think it's my fault. You know what.
- 7:05Speaker 1: I think it's my fault. I think it's my fault
- 7:08Speaker 1: as an actor because I got too caught up in
- 7:10Speaker 1: Lauren's speed and her rhythm and I didn't maintain my
- 7:14Speaker 1: own rhythm. Really, it wasn't really Luke like, was it.
- 7:19Speaker 3: No, And now that you say it, something was like
- 7:22Speaker 3: it was a funny scene and kind of Laura I like,
- 7:26Speaker 3: but almost a lot.
- 7:27Speaker 1: No, no, no. I thought she was great. She was fine.
- 7:29Speaker 1: She's doing her stick, that's what she does, and she's
- 7:32Speaker 1: great at it. I just don't think I served that
- 7:34Speaker 1: scene very well because I tried to speed everything up.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I tried to speed my speech up instead of just
- 7:40Speaker 1: sort of living in it and let it exist with me.
- 7:43Speaker 1: There's a way, there's but there's a way to pick
- 7:45Speaker 1: up your cues when you don't have to rush anything,
- 7:47Speaker 1: but you're not slowing the other person down. I don't
- 7:49Speaker 1: think I achieved that.
- 7:50Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 7:51Speaker 3: I thought it was funny when you said I can
- 7:52Speaker 3: never pick you up here again.
- 7:55Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 7:56Speaker 3: It was just very frenetic with it, like with the
- 7:59Speaker 3: socks and then in the bites and the jeep on
- 8:02Speaker 3: because I was.
- 8:04Speaker 5: Just like, nobody does that. No one puts their socks
- 8:09Speaker 5: in the oven.
- 8:10Speaker 6: And I got distracted because then I was like, well,
- 8:12Speaker 6: now I know that the oven doesn't work, so they're
- 8:14Speaker 6: not warm.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Right.
- 8:17Speaker 3: It was just I'm not saying it wasn't good. I'm
- 8:20Speaker 3: sure people.
- 8:22Speaker 1: Because you know how dared you, right, I mean, it's
- 8:26Speaker 1: this is this is us you're talking about. Man.
- 8:29Speaker 3: It does not be critical anywhere.
- 8:32Speaker 1: I agree with you. I thought that. But there I
- 8:34Speaker 1: gave my reason, and there it is.
- 8:36Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an interesting reason because I don't know what
- 8:39Speaker 3: it was for me. It was just and I don't
- 8:42Speaker 3: know if I'm using the right word, but I think
- 8:43Speaker 3: frenetic is the right word.
- 8:45Speaker 1: It's hard, it's hard not to get caught up and
- 8:49Speaker 1: and what she's doing, you know, but you can't let
- 8:52Speaker 1: yourself get get seduced so much. You got to maintain
- 8:55Speaker 1: who your character. Truth is, character truth is. Yeah, yeah,
- 9:00Speaker 1: it's just it's not a big adjustment. I just don't
- 9:03Speaker 1: think I made the I made the adjustment here and there,
- 9:05Speaker 1: but I just sort of let it. It was swept
- 9:08Speaker 1: away in it. It's not I was.
- 9:09Speaker 3: Worried about the keys, and the keys are on the door,
- 9:11Speaker 3: those are little doors. The socks are the oven, and
- 9:15Speaker 3: then the corp light's broken. I was just like, ooh,
- 9:19Speaker 3: I don't feel good.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Yeah, was that the first time that Linke and Laurrela
- 9:25Speaker 1: have churned your stomach?
- 9:28Speaker 3: But you know what I did like about the open What.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Did you have for dinner that night?
- 9:32Speaker 3: I have an ant acid. The thing I did like though,
- 9:37Speaker 3: that I thought was super cute was the door open,
- 9:40Speaker 3: because it started actually slow, door open, Hey, hey, back kiss,
- 9:45Speaker 3: and I'm like, they're a couple. Whoa, that's cute.
- 9:48Speaker 1: And then it just well, he kept the door. He
- 9:51Speaker 1: kept the front door open, hoping to get her out fast,
- 9:53Speaker 1: and then when he realized it wasn't gonna happen, he
- 9:54Speaker 1: just gave up the closed door.
- 9:57Speaker 3: So then I have another question. I usually press skip
- 10:02Speaker 3: on the credits, but this time, I didn't, and I
- 10:06Speaker 3: think there might have been some new footage. So next week,
- 10:10Speaker 3: can everybody watch because I've been skipping, so I'm not sure.
- 10:13Speaker 6: Yeah, I usually skip too.
- 10:15Speaker 3: So we got to watch the credits and just see
- 10:16Speaker 3: if there's some new things.
- 10:18Speaker 1: More homework, I mean it never ends the emails, the
- 10:21Speaker 1: text can you do this? Can you do that?
- 10:23Speaker 3: Now?
- 10:24Speaker 1: Live on the air, you guys have more homework.
- 10:26Speaker 6: To do that extra thirty seconds.
- 10:31Speaker 3: So anyway, okay, then we get to First of all,
- 10:36Speaker 3: I did notice in the credits, not the opening credits,
- 10:39Speaker 3: but the you know, once the show starts, we knew
- 10:42Speaker 3: that Matt was back. I think he's like special guest
- 10:44Speaker 3: star or something in this. So I was thrilled Paris
- 10:48Speaker 3: had the dream about Rory. Rory really wants to get features.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Rory's in a pink, cute, pink sweater. That's sort of
- 10:56Speaker 3: what's happening.
- 10:57Speaker 1: I like Rory in the what is it called the
- 11:00Speaker 1: al Daily News? What is it called it? Yeah, what
- 11:02Speaker 1: is the paper? What is it called? What is it called?
- 11:04Speaker 1: What's the newspaper called?
- 11:05Speaker 3: We have to look that up exactly, and I mean
- 11:07Speaker 3: Savior letters. We know we should know it.
- 11:09Speaker 1: All the topic at Yale Newspaper. It says, but I
- 11:13Speaker 1: love being in there, I love the action. I love Doyle.
- 11:16Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, the Yale Daily News, Yale Daly.
- 11:20Speaker 3: Did you know Doyle whose real names out of my
- 11:23Speaker 3: head right now, created that Michael Keaton show about the
- 11:27Speaker 3: opioid crisis? That guy is legit.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Yeah he. I think he won or was nominated for
- 11:34Speaker 1: an Emmy for that, the Al Gore yeah election, the
- 11:39Speaker 1: Hanging Chad thing.
- 11:41Speaker 3: Yeah, and what's the opioid show with Michael Keaton? Someone
- 11:44Speaker 3: give me that.
- 11:45Speaker 1: He did Empire too.
- 11:46Speaker 6: It's Danny Strong he created.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Yeah, and I didn't realize he also did that Michael
- 11:52Speaker 3: Keaton whatever it was. Somebody tell me the title. And
- 11:56Speaker 3: I saw him the dope Sick, Dope sick Yeah.
- 11:59Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah.
- 11:59Speaker 3: He's been on the news a lot because ultimately he's
- 12:02Speaker 3: a writer, and so he's on strike with all the
- 12:05Speaker 3: writers right now, and so he's been on the news
- 12:09Speaker 3: quite a bit. But to me, he's Doyle prolific.
- 12:12Speaker 1: He's a prolific writer. Yeah. Yeah.
- 12:15Speaker 6: So it's so nice to see Rory like not just
- 12:19Speaker 6: in her dorm like last freshman year, she was just
- 12:22Speaker 6: always in her dorm and I'm like, oh, she's like mingling.
- 12:25Speaker 6: Like finally, it's like a a whole year.
- 12:28Speaker 3: You get here.
- 12:29Speaker 1: I thought it would hurt the show, separating mother and daughter,
- 12:31Speaker 1: but it actually enhanced it. Yeah, they figured it out.
- 12:34Speaker 1: It's like I like her, Yeah, I like her. Now
- 12:38Speaker 1: she's now she's in the belly of the beast. She's
- 12:42Speaker 1: making a friends, she's doing stuff, she's interacting, and it's
- 12:45Speaker 1: all she's busy. I like to see it. I want
- 12:47Speaker 1: more to come.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Shout out to Glenn forgetting in the New York Times.
- 12:50Speaker 3: And then the bit with Doyle was.
- 12:52Speaker 1: Another another great Glenn appearance, totally like what's the big deal?
- 12:57Speaker 1: I don't care?
- 12:58Speaker 3: And Rory trying to see the bright side for Doyle,
- 13:00Speaker 3: and then Doyle just flipping the script on her like oh, okay, really,
- 13:05Speaker 3: I'm the Muncie Messenger or whatever. He's a good character.
- 13:09Speaker 1: He is.
- 13:10Speaker 5: I didn't like him at first, but now I'd rather
- 13:12Speaker 5: enjoy Doyle.
- 13:13Speaker 3: Danielle, do you have any predictions for anything you see
- 13:17Speaker 3: with Doyle, Like just anything that comes off the top
- 13:19Speaker 3: of your head of what you might just predict a
- 13:21Speaker 3: Doyle prediction. Doyle prediction.
- 13:26Speaker 7: You know.
- 13:28Speaker 1: He's gonna ask Rory out to the dance.
- 13:30Speaker 4: Oh good, I did not. That was not on my radar.
- 13:36Speaker 4: But now that you said it, we're.
- 13:37Speaker 6: Not going to tell you.
- 13:38Speaker 3: We're just wanting to know for the two virgins in
- 13:40Speaker 3: the group.
- 13:44Speaker 5: On he is totally going to get a crush on Rory,
- 13:49Speaker 5: but then Rory's going to get a crush on Logan,
- 13:51Speaker 5: and then Doyle and Logan are going to hate each other.
- 13:59Speaker 8: Are we close?
- 13:59Speaker 3: Are We're not gonna answer that.
- 14:01Speaker 6: I'm not saying.
- 14:03Speaker 4: It got with the assist. I appreciate that. That was good.
- 14:10Speaker 3: So then she goes home, goes down on the bed,
- 14:15Speaker 3: she's reading the paper. She's got Loralai on the phone. Oh,
- 14:18Speaker 3: Luke did a bit, which is I've seen this episode
- 14:21Speaker 3: a lot of times for some reason, this one and
- 14:23Speaker 3: the next one like two of my can't out. But
- 14:27Speaker 3: I'd never have loved the bit about Luke doing a
- 14:31Speaker 3: bit when he's in the oven and hitting his head.
- 14:35Speaker 3: But I don't know's I guess it's funny. I don't know.
- 14:41Speaker 1: She's just relax and love and enjoying herself and having
- 14:44Speaker 1: a grand old time. Life is good, the inn is open,
- 14:47Speaker 1: she's got her relationship going on, it's and she she
- 14:52Speaker 1: owned that, you know, and she was just sitting in
- 14:54Speaker 1: that chair talking to her daughter and raised her daughter
- 14:57Speaker 1: daughter's at Yale. Life is good, you know.
- 15:00Speaker 3: I do love that she's so comfortable with Rory, with Luke,
- 15:03Speaker 3: do you know what I mean? Like, yeah, there's none
- 15:05Speaker 3: of this like not sneaking around like she had to
- 15:09Speaker 3: do before, but sneaking around like she had to do before.
- 15:12Speaker 3: It's very much like I'm here, Luke's here. This is
- 15:15Speaker 3: this is real.
- 15:17Speaker 6: And even at the end when she's like you sound happy,
- 15:19Speaker 6: it's like yeah, like she is happy, and it was
- 15:22Speaker 6: kind of like not that she needs Rory's approval, but
- 15:26Speaker 6: I feel like it felt like that, like thanks, Like yeah,
- 15:29Speaker 6: I am very happy.
- 15:31Speaker 1: I've never understood Rory better or empathized with her more
- 15:35Speaker 1: than this episode because she got to measure her upbringing
- 15:41Speaker 1: Luke versus Christopher in a very definitive way and it
- 15:45Speaker 1: was very touching and it was very sad. Actually I
- 15:49Speaker 1: got very very sad, and now I understood Rory more
- 15:54Speaker 1: and better because of this episode.
- 15:56Speaker 3: It's a powerful moment. This episode, for being light and fun,
- 16:04Speaker 3: really actually has a lot of deep meaning.
- 16:07Speaker 1: It'll punch into life there and give you some moments.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Like yeah, then I really I can't wait to talk
- 16:12Speaker 3: to you guys about it. So as we get there, because.
- 16:15Speaker 1: We'll show because I really want.
- 16:17Speaker 3: To talk about Sherry leaving and all of it. It's
- 16:21Speaker 3: like it's it's major in anyway. In the meantime, we
- 16:26Speaker 3: kind of get that Rory is sort of feeling a
- 16:28Speaker 3: little stressed because she didn't do an internship and she
- 16:30Speaker 3: feels behind and you know, so we're getting a little
- 16:33Speaker 3: of that, but it's a that's a really good scene
- 16:38Speaker 3: other than like morel laughing at Luke's head, hitting that.
- 16:43Speaker 3: I didn't think.
- 16:44Speaker 6: That Rory wasted two months being in Europe, did you guys,
- 16:48Speaker 6: Because I was like, that's a whole experience that most
- 16:50Speaker 6: kids don't get at that age.
- 16:54Speaker 1: That's experience. Yeah, I was time either, time all spent.
- 17:00Speaker 1: You know. You can you can be in a couple
- 17:03Speaker 1: of dozen riots. You can get back on your bike
- 17:05Speaker 1: keeping bike to another ryot.
- 17:07Speaker 4: It's wonderful and good food, good drinks. Yeah, and she's
- 17:11Speaker 4: of legal age to drink. You know, lots of bros.
- 17:16Speaker 1: I think for the rioters it's wonderful.
- 17:19Speaker 3: I think Tar's point of spending that time with your
- 17:22Speaker 3: grandmother is invaluable. You may not see it in the moment.
- 17:26Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but yeah, no question.
- 17:31Speaker 3: So then we meet Norman Mailer at the Inn, which is.
- 17:35Speaker 1: Fact, that's actually her getting your PhD and.
- 17:38Speaker 9: Snooty yeah, or also I think you look back when
- 17:44Speaker 9: your grandparents aren't here and you're like, oh, thank god
- 17:47Speaker 9: I did that. Yeah, so we meet Norman Mailer at
- 17:52Speaker 9: the Inn.
- 17:53Speaker 3: Now, did everybody know who Norman Mailer was?
- 17:58Speaker 1: Yes?
- 17:59Speaker 5: No, I thought he was a fictional character until now.
- 18:06Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, so who is Norman Mayler?
- 18:16Speaker 1: Who is Norman may Well? I mean, yeah, he's the
- 18:19Speaker 1: guy who went to Harvard and graduated with a degree
- 18:22Speaker 1: in aeronautical engineering and was drafted into the war, volunteered,
- 18:28Speaker 1: and he fought in World War Two, and when.
- 18:29Speaker 3: He came back A lot about Norman.
- 18:32Speaker 1: When he came back, he wrote The Naked and the
- 18:34Speaker 1: Dead and it made him an instant literary star. When
- 18:38Speaker 1: when writers used to be the top of the food
- 18:41Speaker 1: chain and the entertainment business in America, he was the
- 18:46Speaker 1: shining light. He was the novelist. It was. It was
- 18:49Speaker 1: him and Philip Roth and John dos Passos and a
- 18:54Speaker 1: couple of others Updyke was up there and saw Bellow
- 18:57Speaker 1: and people like that. I mean he was a guy
- 19:00Speaker 1: who with a big ego and a big brain.
- 19:02Speaker 3: And yeah, he wanted to be a little controversial.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there was. He he did a lot
- 19:09Speaker 1: of he did journalism too, and he kind of you know,
- 19:13Speaker 1: he blended the subjective complexity and artistry of the novel
- 19:18Speaker 1: with journalistic objectivity.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Now I don't be wrong, but allegedly he also stabbed
- 19:25Speaker 3: his wife with a pen in the heart.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Oh my god, apparently in the heart.
- 19:32Speaker 3: Yeah that so was he not controversial when you all
- 19:38Speaker 3: had him on the show, like even though because he
- 19:41Speaker 3: allegedly stabbed the wife.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Like in the sixties, Yeah, he found his fame. I
- 19:48Speaker 1: mean I think they put Naked and the Dead was
- 19:52Speaker 1: published nineteen forty eight, so he was a star from
- 19:55Speaker 1: nineteen forty eight on. And then you know, the perception
- 20:00Speaker 1: was that he never matched The Naked and the Dead
- 20:03Speaker 1: and that and that by the time the sixties and
- 20:07Speaker 1: seventies rolled around, he know, he was publishing books that
- 20:10Speaker 1: didn't measure up according to some critics, and gore Vidal
- 20:13Speaker 1: went after the hardest. His friend, Well, I grew up
- 20:18Speaker 1: with with with Gurvidal and Norman Mailer. I mean, every
- 20:23Speaker 1: every man that graduated the Ivy League of the gi
- 20:28Speaker 1: Bill that was, you know, an English major wanted to
- 20:32Speaker 1: write the great American novel when they graduated, and he's
- 20:34Speaker 1: the guy that did it. My father included in that bunch,
- 20:38Speaker 1: and he never got the opportunity to do it until
- 20:40Speaker 1: later in his life. So right, interesting people used to
- 20:44Speaker 1: aspire to be writers. They wanted to be great novelists.
- 20:47Speaker 1: They did Hemingway. You know, everybody was so turned on
- 20:51Speaker 1: by Hemingway. Men, women, everybody wanted to be Ernest Hemingway.
- 20:55Speaker 3: Interestingly, the person interviewing him is his son, So he's
- 21:00Speaker 3: not playing his son. He's playing the journalist interviewing him.
- 21:03Speaker 6: But that is it's his real son.
- 21:05Speaker 3: Yes, so that's played by Stephen Mahler. So you're welcome
- 21:11Speaker 3: for the history.
- 21:11Speaker 1: But Mailer was controversial in that he was, you know,
- 21:15Speaker 1: pugilistic in his his academic style, his debating style. He
- 21:22Speaker 1: ran sure, he got physical with certain people, you know
- 21:26Speaker 1: New York mayor. He was kind of a tough guy.
- 21:29Speaker 1: He was, you know, he he went up, went went
- 21:33Speaker 1: against Gloria Steinem and the Women's movement, and he debated
- 21:37Speaker 1: them in very nuanced and interesting ways, but then got
- 21:41Speaker 1: labeled as a male chauvinist pig, which was yeah, yeah,
- 21:46Speaker 1: the phraseology of the time in male chauvinist pig, you're
- 21:50Speaker 1: a chauvinist.
- 21:51Speaker 3: He had six wives, nine children, so it's kind of
- 21:56Speaker 3: interesting that he lived his life that Amy Sherman Palladino,
- 22:00Speaker 3: you know, wanted Norman Mayler. Yeah, because it's also like, okay,
- 22:04Speaker 3: if you think about this, when they're like Norman Mayler
- 22:07Speaker 3: is in the Inn, that only really had significance to
- 22:11Speaker 3: like the older viewers of Gilmore Girls back in two
- 22:14Speaker 3: thousand and four, right, Like, it wasn't like she came
- 22:17Speaker 3: back in and she's like Angelina Jolie is in the Inn,
- 22:21Speaker 3: you know what I mean?
- 22:22Speaker 1: Yeah, Norman Mailer was to writing what Jackson Pollock was
- 22:29Speaker 1: to painting.
- 22:30Speaker 3: He did learn that Billy Joel has come into the Inn.
- 22:33Speaker 3: We didn't get to see it, but we did learn
- 22:35Speaker 3: that Billy Joel came in and ate a lot of things.
- 22:38Speaker 3: But Norman Mayler just gets iced tea.
- 22:42Speaker 1: So and Billy Joel barely hides it.
- 22:48Speaker 6: Have you guys ever gone somewhere and you ordered like
- 22:50Speaker 6: just a drink, and then you feel bad and order
- 22:52Speaker 6: like a snack just because you're like like I've done that,
- 22:54Speaker 6: or you're like, I'll just get an appetizer because I
- 22:56Speaker 6: feel bad.
- 22:58Speaker 5: I've never never just ordered a drink, unless it's like
- 23:01Speaker 5: at a coffee shop.
- 23:03Speaker 3: That's what I was thinking, Like, I only order.
- 23:05Speaker 4: There's always food on the table when goes there.
- 23:09Speaker 1: But he's but he's there doing an interview. That was
- 23:11Speaker 1: the purpose of it, meet me at the Dragonfly interview.
- 23:14Speaker 1: He's not going to sit there and stuff.
- 23:16Speaker 3: His face throw a flag on the play. If you
- 23:19Speaker 3: own an inn, right, you own an inn. There's lots
- 23:22Speaker 3: of people staying at the inn that will be coming
- 23:25Speaker 3: downstairs just for a drink, just for a cup of coffee.
- 23:29Speaker 3: So Suki maybe was totally overap, being kind of inappropriate,
- 23:35Speaker 3: Like who cares this guy. It's a it's an inn.
- 23:38Speaker 3: People can come down just to have a lemonade or
- 23:40Speaker 3: water or sit in the lobby if they want to.
- 23:42Speaker 3: They don't have to order even a drink. They already
- 23:44Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
- 23:45Speaker 1: It was manufactured sort of territorial sort of thing going on.
- 23:52Speaker 1: But it's Norman Mailer. I mean doesn't she know who
- 23:55Speaker 1: Norman Bayler is? And also the deal when that guy
- 23:58Speaker 1: comes and sits down in your restaurant, that's an icon
- 24:01Speaker 1: right there.
- 24:02Speaker 5: So I think it would be different if her dining
- 24:05Speaker 5: room was full for lunch, you know, and Norman Mayler
- 24:08Speaker 5: was there and only getting icedy.
- 24:10Speaker 1: I think she'd be like, I can't get a table,
- 24:12Speaker 1: taking the table.
- 24:13Speaker 6: And she's getting her lunch taken away, So I feel
- 24:16Speaker 6: like it's just oh yeah.
- 24:17Speaker 5: So my point being, she wouldn't be bothered if there
- 24:21Speaker 5: was meant other people for her to cook for.
- 24:23Speaker 4: But the fact that.
- 24:24Speaker 5: He's the only one there and she's not serving him
- 24:27Speaker 5: food he only wants iced tea.
- 24:29Speaker 3: Well, and I they should be more bothered if he
- 24:31Speaker 3: was only getting iced tea if the room was full,
- 24:33Speaker 3: because he's like, like Scott said, he's holding the table.
- 24:37Speaker 1: But then also, if I own an inn and the
- 24:40Speaker 1: chef is hassling somebody drinking tea, who's you know, a
- 24:44Speaker 1: major celebrity, I'm firing that totally.
- 24:47Speaker 3: That's why Lorelai was sort of like a pom your
- 24:50Speaker 3: self down.
- 24:51Speaker 1: It's like, what is going on? Man?
- 24:55Speaker 3: They want learn it's because she's pregnant. We'll just get
- 25:00Speaker 3: to the punchline. There he learned then she's crazy in
- 25:03Speaker 3: acting nuts. So okay that Doyle gives out the assignments
- 25:08Speaker 3: and Rory gets features, Glenn gets crime, Paris gets religion.
- 25:14Speaker 3: This seems big to me that Rory got features when
- 25:17Speaker 3: it's like her she's so young on the paper.
- 25:20Speaker 1: But cool, Well, let's see what she does with the opportunity.
- 25:26Speaker 3: I was on.
- 25:28Speaker 6: I will say I was on my high school newspaper,
- 25:30Speaker 6: and I loved features because you could basically write about
- 25:32Speaker 6: like anything you wanted, like you just could. He didn't
- 25:35Speaker 6: have like sports or whatever. You got to fully pick
- 25:39Speaker 6: what you wanted to do.
- 25:40Speaker 3: And then it happens in walks logan into the newsroom
- 25:46Speaker 3: and just Doyle freaking out is just like the greatest
- 25:49Speaker 3: thing ever. And did you see, like he who's that girl? Now?
- 25:53Speaker 3: He had a girl and.
- 25:54Speaker 4: He kind of a girl that he lanted planted a
- 25:57Speaker 4: speech on.
- 25:57Speaker 3: Is that the same girl that he had in the
- 26:00Speaker 3: episode when they walked by the coffee cart?
- 26:02Speaker 1: I think it was.
- 26:04Speaker 3: Can somebody from either our staff or the crack staff
- 26:08Speaker 3: figure out if that was the same girl? So that's
- 26:11Speaker 3: like somebody's mission for the next thirty minutes. So what
- 26:15Speaker 3: do you guys, I mean, I love him already, So
- 26:18Speaker 3: what did especially Scott and Danielle, what did you guys
- 26:21Speaker 3: think when here he comes and you see how studley
- 26:24Speaker 3: he is, and then you learn he's got this big,
- 26:26Speaker 3: rich father who's in the newspaper business.
- 26:30Speaker 1: He's such a cool customer and to come into a
- 26:33Speaker 1: scene like that and just take over and be cool
- 26:35Speaker 1: and relaxed, and it just showed how how strong an
- 26:38Speaker 1: actor he is, and what a wonderful debut for him,
- 26:44Speaker 1: and what a great character. I just think, man, Amy
- 26:46Speaker 1: must have had a ton of fun writing that character.
- 26:48Speaker 3: Oh, I agree. So he's in the Gilmore Woldan he's
- 26:53Speaker 3: got that different rhythm right Oh yeah.
- 26:55Speaker 1: Man, he's just this old guy and he I mean,
- 26:59Speaker 1: you know, is just reeking from him. It's just pouring
- 27:02Speaker 1: off him. Privilege and class and money. It's just pouring
- 27:06Speaker 1: off him. And he's not apologetic about it. You know.
- 27:10Speaker 1: He's ourgany kind of and he's distant, yet he's familiar
- 27:15Speaker 1: and i and warm at the same time. It's just
- 27:18Speaker 1: he's playing all these opposites. Wonderful, just wonderful to watch.
- 27:24Speaker 5: I still don't like him.
- 27:28Speaker 4: Sorry, I still like him.
- 27:30Speaker 7: But.
- 27:33Speaker 1: I'm waiting. I still don't like him.
- 27:35Speaker 5: I'm waiting for the episode to find him a little
- 27:38Speaker 5: more human, like the episode where you're like, oh, I
- 27:41Speaker 5: get it now.
- 27:42Speaker 4: I'm still waiting for it. So I still don't like him.
- 27:45Speaker 5: But what I will say is I do like what
- 27:48Speaker 5: he makes the people around him do. Like I do
- 27:51Speaker 5: like how Doyle is like flubbering around him like that
- 27:55Speaker 5: makes that made me laugh and I loved that scene.
- 27:59Speaker 5: And I also like how he's making Rory like call
- 28:02Speaker 5: him out, you know, like Rory is actually like like
- 28:07Speaker 5: not standing up to him, but she's kind of like,
- 28:10Speaker 5: you know, like hey, dude, what's up?
- 28:11Speaker 4: You know that kind of It's.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Such a great point you're making there because so far
- 28:18Speaker 3: they're pretty much going toe to toe. It's like who
- 28:21Speaker 3: has the leg up? But I'm going to say it's Logan,
- 28:26Speaker 3: and I think it's the first time that that's ever happened.
- 28:29Speaker 3: Like they're going toe to toe, but like which we'll
- 28:31Speaker 3: get to. She has to agree to the conditions, right,
- 28:35Speaker 3: and when they kind of have that confrontation when she's
- 28:37Speaker 3: sort of stalking him and waiting for him, like he
- 28:40Speaker 3: won that so it's sort.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Of like, yes, yes, that's what she does.
- 28:47Speaker 3: Yes, she's close and she's leveled up, right, so, which
- 28:50Speaker 3: I think he's intrigued by because most girls just kiss
- 28:53Speaker 3: him and don't don't even give him any kind of anything.
- 28:56Speaker 3: But it's still like point logan to me.
- 29:00Speaker 1: Again, absolutely absolutely absolutely, and it's like he's in control.
- 29:06Speaker 1: She wants the info from him. He's going to have
- 29:09Speaker 1: fun with her totally. And then you know, and you
- 29:12Speaker 1: don't have to necessarily like a character to enjoy the character, right,
- 29:18Speaker 1: And he's so easy to enjoy. Are you not enjoying him, Danielle,
- 29:22Speaker 1: You're not like he comes on the screen. What is
- 29:24Speaker 1: your experience? Are you're not laughing? Or you know?
- 29:26Speaker 5: Like I said, like I like what he's doing with
- 29:29Speaker 5: the people around how the people around him are responding
- 29:32Speaker 5: to him. Like I'm enjoying that a lot. So his
- 29:35Speaker 5: presence is giving me that, But him as a human
- 29:38Speaker 5: as and as a character, I'm not sold.
- 29:41Speaker 1: I'm just sing Okay. So here's the thing. Here's the thing.
- 29:43Speaker 1: When we meet a new person, right and we don't
- 29:46Speaker 1: know them, and it's not like everybody's a little anxious,
- 29:48Speaker 1: but then they make you laugh out loud. You love
- 29:51Speaker 1: that person immediately, It's like, oh, I love this guy.
- 29:54Speaker 1: I love this girl. She's funny and and Logan does
- 29:57Speaker 1: that when he puts the hat on and he said,
- 30:00Speaker 1: you know the whole thing, I just I howled this is.
- 30:08Speaker 4: I don't know, like just.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Like I love this guy. I don't care what he does.
- 30:14Speaker 1: You can cut a Dean all day and a cowboy
- 30:16Speaker 1: finger knoed Logan man entertaining.
- 30:25Speaker 4: I mean, here's the thing.
- 30:26Speaker 5: When Dean first came to the picture, I was sold
- 30:29Speaker 5: within the first episode. Same with Jess, like just with
- 30:33Speaker 5: like you know, being mysterious and and different, like I
- 30:37Speaker 5: loved it right away.
- 30:38Speaker 4: But with Logan, it's just taking me time.
- 30:42Speaker 6: Is because he like came in hot. Is that why?
- 30:45Speaker 4: Maybe I don't know. I'm just like he's just like
- 30:48Speaker 4: not it.
- 30:49Speaker 3: For me right now.
- 30:50Speaker 5: That's fine, But I appreciate his presence in the show
- 30:54Speaker 5: so far.
- 30:55Speaker 6: I think Scott has a point too. It's like you
- 30:57Speaker 6: don't have to love like the care but you still
- 31:01Speaker 6: enjoy watching. That's such a great way of explaining it,
- 31:03Speaker 6: because that's how I felt like, I mean, clearly I
- 31:06Speaker 6: know what happens, but like even going back I'm like,
- 31:09Speaker 6: you know what, he is really fun to watch.
- 31:11Speaker 3: Oh god, he's so good. I mean, and just like
- 31:14Speaker 3: the way they dress him in the turtleneck with the blazer,
- 31:17Speaker 3: like you just know he's rich and he's handsome. And
- 31:22Speaker 3: I think it's the confidence. And what I haven't ever
- 31:25Speaker 3: figured out is is Matt Zukri playing Logan so confident
- 31:30Speaker 3: or is Matt Zugri also just so confident and natural
- 31:35Speaker 3: that he just can play Logan.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Let's ask him.
- 31:40Speaker 4: We do need him on?
- 31:41Speaker 1: We do? Oh yeah, we need to, we needed we
- 31:47Speaker 1: need We.
- 31:48Speaker 3: Get a little glimpse into Logan's sort of life and
- 31:51Speaker 3: that he like had Daddy's yacht and sunk it, and
- 31:54Speaker 3: we learn a little bit about Mitcham. Yeah, so we
- 31:59Speaker 3: learn we learn of Mitcham's existence and that Logan is
- 32:03Speaker 3: a Huntsburger, you know, and then the hat and the
- 32:07Speaker 3: whole thing. I just literally was like.
- 32:09Speaker 7: Oh.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean, this character is taking us into
- 32:15Speaker 1: a completely new world. It's a portal that that that
- 32:20Speaker 1: Rory is going to walk through, and I am going
- 32:24Speaker 1: with her.
- 32:24Speaker 10: Man.
- 32:25Speaker 1: I mean, this is the best storyline in the show
- 32:28Speaker 1: in quite a while. It really truly is. I mean,
- 32:31Speaker 1: this is just the whole experience in and of itself.
- 32:33Speaker 1: This is a whole show in and of itself, right,
- 32:37Speaker 1: I think I think the spin off shows may be
- 32:41Speaker 1: inspired by this Light the Light Brigade.
- 32:44Speaker 11: Is that what they call themselves, not to Life and Brigade,
- 32:47Speaker 11: Life and the Life and the Light Bride, you know,
- 32:52Speaker 11: And I just it's just a just a terrifically fun
- 32:55Speaker 11: fantasy experience that having you.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Yeah, I was waiting for more scenes with Logan, like
- 33:04Speaker 1: let's go there.
- 33:06Speaker 3: This new energy.
- 33:08Speaker 6: Yeah, and this was kind of this episode was like
- 33:10Speaker 6: a tease of that.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Yes, right, yeah, yeah, that's a great point. So we
- 33:17Speaker 3: go back to the inn and we've got Suki is
- 33:21Speaker 3: still going with her whole thing, which was entertaining, but
- 33:25Speaker 3: not my favorite part of the episode.
- 33:27Speaker 1: It's like, it's a little shrill.
- 33:29Speaker 3: It's a little shrill.
- 33:30Speaker 1: I think I found myself turning the volume down.
- 33:34Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. And it was just sort of like
- 33:37Speaker 3: no one's doing that. No proprietor essentially is like yelling
- 33:42Speaker 3: at Norman Mailer, do you know what I mean? So
- 33:47Speaker 3: it was.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Funny when she went out and grabbed the book and said.
- 33:53Speaker 3: It was all amusing and we understand that she's pregnant
- 33:55Speaker 3: once we get the payoffs, so it's like, okay, fine.
- 33:57Speaker 1: But that was that was a great how she realized
- 34:02Speaker 1: that was a great real.
- 34:08Speaker 3: We then learn that Doses is doing the what I
- 34:12Speaker 3: call the seven eleven special, having the hot dogs, the nachos,
- 34:17Speaker 3: the icy. First of all, I love an Icy, but
- 34:21Speaker 3: the hot dogs looked not good.
- 34:25Speaker 4: I love a nacho, so I'll take the nachos.
- 34:28Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:29Speaker 3: I love when Laura, I don't. I can't remember if
- 34:31Speaker 3: what happens to you. I think it's later when she's
- 34:33Speaker 3: like cruising down just eating. It's like so epic.
- 34:38Speaker 6: I like how it's like the top of the town, like,
- 34:39Speaker 6: oh we got an icy machine and hot dog, Like
- 34:41Speaker 6: it's like a whole thing.
- 34:43Speaker 3: I do love an Icy though, I do too. Now,
- 34:46Speaker 3: do you have a preference over Icy to Slurpee? And
- 34:48Speaker 3: are they the same to you guys? Or are they different.
- 34:55Speaker 6: Like slurpies? Right?
- 34:56Speaker 1: What's the difference? The brain freeze you get the higher
- 35:01Speaker 1: you get a quicker brain freeze with the Slurpee. With
- 35:03Speaker 1: the Icy, it's a little more subtle.
- 35:06Speaker 4: I don't think there's a difference. Is maybe just the brand, just.
- 35:09Speaker 6: The brand I think yeah, yeah, I don't know. ICs
- 35:12Speaker 6: are always at like the movie theaters.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Yeah, Surer have colder ice.
- 35:17Speaker 5: I like the different it's the same products, but bold
- 35:23Speaker 5: under did anybody have the the at home? Slurpy won't
- 35:27Speaker 5: thank the makers, Like it's like an easy bake oven, but.
- 35:30Speaker 3: But it's funny. They still sell the icy one and
- 35:33Speaker 3: thinking of buying it for the summer.
- 35:35Speaker 5: So dope, but like it makes like one like you
- 35:38Speaker 5: have to work really hard to.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Make it a pool at your estate? Do you have
- 35:43Speaker 1: a pool?
- 35:44Speaker 3: I mean there's like a community pool.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Well sure, I mean you can have your icy over there.
- 35:50Speaker 3: So the easy bake oven literally we cooked cakes with
- 35:53Speaker 3: a light bulb.
- 35:54Speaker 4: I know.
- 35:56Speaker 5: But that's how the Slurpy, the slurping machine I'm talking
- 35:59Speaker 5: about it.
- 36:00Speaker 1: It's like, but I Slurpy was like a social totally
- 36:04Speaker 1: now people we hang out with the seven eleven.
- 36:07Speaker 3: Yeah, there's seven eleven right by our house and we
- 36:11Speaker 3: go every day like literally slurpy every day. I'm sure
- 36:13Speaker 3: it's not good for you too, You're just like drinking.
- 36:15Speaker 4: Red sugar, red dye and sugar.
- 36:20Speaker 3: But so that was kind of Dean looked adorable, don't
- 36:24Speaker 3: get me wrong, but they also are having sort of
- 36:27Speaker 3: a struggle because they can't schedule time. I'm not feeling
- 36:31Speaker 3: good about their future.
- 36:34Speaker 4: No, not really.
- 36:35Speaker 5: That went out the window a few episodes ago.
- 36:37Speaker 1: Life got in the way.
- 36:39Speaker 3: There was sort of a funny line though, like when
- 36:42Speaker 3: he's like sex can do that also, and she's all, amen, brother, it's.
- 36:45Speaker 6: I don't like it.
- 36:47Speaker 3: Why is it so weird?
- 36:49Speaker 1: That's tough.
- 36:50Speaker 6: I think it's weird because I don't know why. Like
- 36:52Speaker 6: I feel like it wouldn't be weird if it was
- 36:54Speaker 6: like at this rate, like Logan and Rory, but because
- 36:56Speaker 6: it's her in Dean, it just.
- 36:59Speaker 1: Go Yeah, he's getting all porny on her talking about
- 37:04Speaker 1: that marketing Gilmore. Girls don't do the porny talk.
- 37:08Speaker 4: No, it's just weird. Like I get you guys.
- 37:14Speaker 5: Had sex, but like yeah, like well you don't need
- 37:17Speaker 5: to talk about it.
- 37:18Speaker 3: Oh god, Okay. So then we go to the meeting
- 37:21Speaker 3: with the accountant, which here's my question. If a inn
- 37:25Speaker 3: is seventy five percent occupied, that's like major.
- 37:30Speaker 8: So there was a little bit of like huh because
- 37:32Speaker 8: she's like, when we get the profits up from what
- 37:35Speaker 8: I know, seventy five percent occupied is like amazing, like
- 37:39Speaker 8: I heard hotels, you don't even want to be like
- 37:41Speaker 8: ninety nine percent occupied because you're not able to handle that,
- 37:46Speaker 8: like when a hotel's book this goes down and all
- 37:48Speaker 8: these things.
- 37:49Speaker 1: So they're just.
- 37:50Speaker 4: Probably so in the hole, you.
- 37:52Speaker 1: Know, Like I mean, they need to they need to
- 37:54Speaker 1: maximize profits to get back to even because they're Yeah,
- 37:57Speaker 1: they're in the rest, that's true.
- 37:58Speaker 3: True.
- 38:00Speaker 1: All that the big spend they did on breakfast.
- 38:03Speaker 3: And dinners, it sounds like are going great, but lunch
- 38:04Speaker 3: is problem.
- 38:05Speaker 1: No breakfasts, break even dinners are making some money.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Did she say that? Yeah, oh I missed that, but great,
- 38:12Speaker 3: m and then I love that Michelle wants to deduct
- 38:15Speaker 3: his suits, but Suki's all.
- 38:16Speaker 1: Mad and my accountant would be able to deduct those suits.
- 38:21Speaker 3: Well, your accountant might be better.
- 38:23Speaker 1: I think he is, and I don't. I don't think
- 38:26Speaker 1: he auditioned for that part. Weirdly, so day from Delta Airlines,
- 38:35Speaker 1: I got a new they're still looking for my John.
- 38:40Speaker 3: They still have not found it.
- 38:41Speaker 1: They're giving it another two weeks and then they're giving up.
- 38:44Speaker 1: But they just wanted to. They just wanted me to
- 38:46Speaker 1: know they're working hard.
- 38:47Speaker 3: When they give up, do you get any money or
- 38:50Speaker 3: is it just too bad?
- 38:52Speaker 1: No, it's too bad. Oh you don't.
- 38:54Speaker 3: I don't know that. So when you put your suitcase
- 38:56Speaker 3: on that thing, you're kind of like.
- 38:58Speaker 6: I signed off.
- 38:59Speaker 3: Just hope for the best.
- 39:00Speaker 1: I handed it to that guy. I should have just
- 39:04Speaker 1: said bye bye John, Bye bye Church. I don't want
- 39:10Speaker 1: to home now.
- 39:12Speaker 3: And every day I think good choice on the no flying. Okay,
- 39:17Speaker 3: So then we go to Rory, who's trying to do
- 39:19Speaker 3: this boring feature, like the story she picked is so boring,
- 39:23Speaker 3: and we're in this random guy's room and he's trying
- 39:26Speaker 3: to explain like I don't know CDs or something. To her.
- 39:30Speaker 6: I was like, he is trying to explain LimeWire.
- 39:33Speaker 3: It was so boring, like and I think it was
- 39:36Speaker 3: intentionally boring. Like I was like, even I don't want
- 39:38Speaker 3: to hear anything this guy's saying right in his messy,
- 39:42Speaker 3: messy dorm room.
- 39:44Speaker 6: The detail, by the way I was laying at when
- 39:46Speaker 6: that was his name, the detail in that scene of
- 39:49Speaker 6: just like I was looking in the room, like the
- 39:51Speaker 6: set design was amazing.
- 39:53Speaker 3: Totally totally that was like a crazy, legit, kind of
- 39:58Speaker 3: geeky music y guy's dorm room yeah, but the bore
- 40:02Speaker 3: is so plainful. I couldn't get out of there fast enough.
- 40:06Speaker 1: So and then she's you were not entertained.
- 40:12Speaker 3: So she goes to the bathroom because she lost her
- 40:14Speaker 3: train of thought because she was so boring. She goes
- 40:17Speaker 3: to the bathroom and then she sees the girl monkey
- 40:20Speaker 3: head and gorilla mask. Yeah, gorilla masks.
- 40:23Speaker 1: How did that girl not see her in the mirror? Though?
- 40:27Speaker 3: Great point, great point.
- 40:28Speaker 1: I mean she's like raked off to the side. The
- 40:30Speaker 1: mirror has a pile of very wide you know the
- 40:36Speaker 1: things I notice.
- 40:37Speaker 3: It did make me go and watch the Planet of
- 40:39Speaker 3: the Apes this weekend, though, it did make me want
- 40:42Speaker 3: to watch Planet of the Apes, which I did. I
- 40:44Speaker 3: finally watched the original nineties yeah boy, which is not bad.
- 40:51Speaker 3: It's not good, but I think it's not good in
- 40:55Speaker 3: twenty twenty three because like just the like the actual
- 41:00Speaker 3: effects is basically just turning the camera in circles, rightly,
- 41:05Speaker 3: what so bad? But it was like kind of amusing.
- 41:10Speaker 1: Yeah, let's put.
- 41:20Speaker 3: It and it's like crashes in the water. But really
- 41:23Speaker 3: it's just like a camera going like this, and you're just.
- 41:25Speaker 1: Like technique seventies techniques.
- 41:29Speaker 3: Yeah, so anyway, but.
- 41:30Speaker 1: The ones are good, oh boy.
- 41:34Speaker 3: Yeah, not the Mark Wahlberg one was like, yeah, that's
- 41:38Speaker 3: not great. But then the other ones.
- 41:41Speaker 1: Were put Mark Wahlberg in the jungle, I don't know.
- 41:43Speaker 3: And it was Tim Burton, but the yeah and the
- 41:46Speaker 3: different ending, right, I don't know if you've seen it,
- 41:49Speaker 3: but it's got the different ending.
- 41:50Speaker 1: I mean I couldn't. I couldn't get through.
- 41:52Speaker 3: Now I'm doing a deep dive in Plant of the Ames,
- 41:54Speaker 3: probably thanks to Logan Huntsburger. But so Rory follows out
- 41:58Speaker 3: and she sees her get in there escalade or the you.
- 42:01Speaker 1: Know the.
- 42:03Speaker 7: Es.
- 42:03Speaker 3: Oh good, okay, and uh now she's intrigued.
- 42:11Speaker 4: What did she say before she got in the car?
- 42:14Speaker 1: Oh?
- 42:14Speaker 3: She says in omnia. What does that mean?
- 42:20Speaker 4: What does that mean?
- 42:21Speaker 3: It means she looked it up? It means what does
- 42:24Speaker 3: it mean? It means we do we learned?
- 42:27Speaker 5: Means ready for everything, for anything, ready.
- 42:31Speaker 4: For anything, anyone in this.
- 42:42Speaker 1: But if we were, we wouldn't.
- 42:43Speaker 5: If I'll admit it, if I can bet money, it
- 42:47Speaker 5: would definitely be amy you too.
- 42:52Speaker 3: I can't tell you what mine was, but yes, I
- 42:54Speaker 3: got a weird letter like in my mailbox and the
- 42:57Speaker 3: sorority and it said like go it was I think
- 43:01Speaker 3: it was even like I can't remember if it was
- 43:03Speaker 3: handwritten or it was like a professional like embossed letter
- 43:05Speaker 3: and it said be ready this time.
- 43:08Speaker 4: No, No, this is so cool.
- 43:11Speaker 3: So I know my parents and I was like, what
- 43:13Speaker 3: this weird letter? And where do they say?
- 43:16Speaker 10: They're like, go, my dad's like it's skulling keys or
- 43:19Speaker 10: something like full secret society that's like a massive drinking thing,
- 43:23Speaker 10: which I'm like, it's definitely not that, like because I've
- 43:26Speaker 10: never even had a sip of alcohol in my life.
- 43:28Speaker 3: But he's like, it's definitely a secret society. Just be ready.
- 43:33Speaker 5: Was it something that he was a part of or
- 43:35Speaker 5: were you like that you were you inherited?
- 43:38Speaker 3: Trying to figure out what I like, he was not
- 43:40Speaker 3: in it, but he knew of it. So he was
- 43:44Speaker 3: not in it because it was only girls. But he
- 43:47Speaker 3: once at the time he knew, like I wasn't going
- 43:50Speaker 3: to be murdered or something, you know, He's like, You're
- 43:51Speaker 3: not gonna be murdered. You're like, you're fine, do it. Yeah,
- 43:54Speaker 3: And my mom didn't know of it, but they still
- 43:57Speaker 3: went to the same college as me. So that's why
- 43:59Speaker 3: they would.
- 43:59Speaker 4: So you did it?
- 44:00Speaker 3: Oh I did it. Yeah, I'm in it. I can't
- 44:03Speaker 3: tell you what it is.
- 44:04Speaker 5: That was the excitt that I got was sorority with
- 44:08Speaker 5: the secret handshake and words and things that you know.
- 44:11Speaker 5: But that this is a secret society is a whole
- 44:13Speaker 5: different level than that.
- 44:14Speaker 3: What I can say is, so, for like I don't
- 44:19Speaker 3: know how many years, let's say fifty years, I think
- 44:21Speaker 3: probably fifty, there's a certain number of people in it,
- 44:25Speaker 3: and each person picks one in the class below. So
- 44:29Speaker 3: there's now a line of us that are in the
- 44:31Speaker 3: secret society in this one.
- 44:34Speaker 4: So who picked you?
- 44:36Speaker 3: She can't say answer.
- 44:38Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, Amy. I think I know
- 44:40Speaker 1: what you're talking about. Do you guys do get togethers
- 44:43Speaker 1: at the grove?
- 44:45Speaker 3: At the grove? Well, because it's in Berkeley, it's in Berkeley.
- 44:52Speaker 3: Is there a secret thing at.
- 44:53Speaker 1: The grove the grove? That's not it? Okay, you've answered
- 44:57Speaker 1: the question, thank you.
- 45:00Speaker 3: And I do remember who picked me, and I remember
- 45:03Speaker 3: who picked her, and I remember who picked that person,
- 45:05Speaker 3: So I can go back that far.
- 45:07Speaker 5: Do you call them like you're big and little, like
- 45:09Speaker 5: you're doing sorrity or no?
- 45:11Speaker 2: No?
- 45:12Speaker 3: And then I remember who I picked, but really I
- 45:15Speaker 3: want for me this was weird, and people listening are like,
- 45:18Speaker 3: so born.
- 45:20Speaker 4: I was intriguing.
- 45:22Speaker 3: It's that's why I'm saying. This whole thing is real
- 45:25Speaker 3: that they're doing. No, we didn't like do weird. We
- 45:28Speaker 3: didn't have to jump off you'll learn. But anyway, it
- 45:33Speaker 3: was very important to me the person too below me.
- 45:36Speaker 3: So when I picked the person, I said, I don't
- 45:38Speaker 3: mean to like overstep, but this is the person that
- 45:41Speaker 3: I really is. And that person did pick that person,
- 45:44Speaker 3: and then I don't know what happened from there.
- 45:46Speaker 6: Do you still talk to these people who who the
- 45:48Speaker 6: one who picked you and the person who.
- 45:50Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I definitely talked to the person the most
- 45:53Speaker 3: who's one, two, three, four above me, but we don't
- 45:58Speaker 3: talk about it very much, like forget like I can't
- 46:00Speaker 3: really remember.
- 46:00Speaker 4: What we did, and do you do things like do
- 46:03Speaker 4: you do like?
- 46:04Speaker 1: You do?
- 46:05Speaker 3: Get an email every year that there's a luncheon for
- 46:09Speaker 3: the secret Society of all the people, but.
- 46:13Speaker 5: It's only a year like a luncheon only I've never
- 46:16Speaker 5: gone to the luncheon. But what's the point of being
- 46:18Speaker 5: in part of the society if it's just a lunch
- 46:20Speaker 5: once a year, I think to because you need a party.
- 46:24Speaker 1: I need like yeah, you get together and they help
- 46:27Speaker 1: each other out, and it's a thing.
- 46:30Speaker 3: When you're in school. So you did, we did like
- 46:33Speaker 3: maybe five things when you're in school. But I think
- 46:35Speaker 3: it's also to be like cool, like you're in this thing.
- 46:39Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, I might need to like bring up
- 46:41Speaker 3: like are we supposed to be doing something? And it's secret?
- 46:45Speaker 3: Like I don't have a pin or any proof, like.
- 46:47Speaker 1: There's nothing to prove too, very simple. Yeah, there's a
- 46:53Speaker 1: lot of their circles.
- 46:55Speaker 5: Yeah, I wonder if they're at like every school because
- 46:58Speaker 5: like I don't remember that at my school.
- 47:01Speaker 3: Well, what was that Paul Walker? Was it Paul Walker movie?
- 47:03Speaker 3: Was there a movie Skull and Bones or whatever? Wasn't
- 47:06Speaker 3: the key? What was that movie?
- 47:08Speaker 1: And it was Matt da Was it mat and Skull
- 47:11Speaker 1: and Bones or was it not Paul Walker?
- 47:13Speaker 3: It was some cutie with guys? What was that movie?
- 47:17Speaker 3: It's all about one of these secret societies, because even
- 47:21Speaker 3: they mentioned skull and Bones that was sort of I
- 47:23Speaker 3: think a famous one, right.
- 47:24Speaker 1: Yeah that's what the Bush family. That's Yale, that's yeah.
- 47:29Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, skulling Bone, the Skulls has Paul Walker
- 47:33Speaker 5: and I knew. See, I'm sorry, it's about a secret society.
- 47:40Speaker 6: Yeah, watch this.
- 47:41Speaker 1: I got to do a secret society once in the
- 47:43Speaker 1: mountains where we're in a hot tub and I said,
- 47:45Speaker 1: you can get in if you get out and roll
- 47:47Speaker 1: around in the snow and freeze. And I did it,
- 47:49Speaker 1: and I realized it wasn't that big deal. They were
- 47:51Speaker 1: just joking with me. Couldn't skate it. Next he.
- 48:01Speaker 3: We still need to talk about Logan more, but let's
- 48:04Speaker 3: dig into Christopher because this is where Christopher calls Laura
- 48:10Speaker 3: Lai and you know he needs help. I sort of
- 48:17Speaker 3: was like, oh my god, like, where the heck have
- 48:20Speaker 3: you been.
- 48:22Speaker 4: I didn't expect him to come back.
- 48:25Speaker 5: Oh really yeah, I didn't think he was coming, Like
- 48:27Speaker 5: I thought we were done with Christopher.
- 48:30Speaker 1: Really well, they just had to bring him back so
- 48:32Speaker 1: Rory could knock him out.
- 48:34Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I do think.
- 48:36Speaker 3: I do think he was working on another TV show
- 48:38Speaker 3: that obviously got canceled, so he's available for Gilmo Girls,
- 48:40Speaker 3: but he's still calling her lare Yeah.
- 48:43Speaker 6: I have a question for everyone. Do you think that
- 48:47Speaker 6: it was wrong for him to call Laura l I
- 48:49Speaker 6: or do you think it was wrong for her to
- 48:51Speaker 6: go over there.
- 48:56Speaker 1: But but thinking of the welfare of his child, so
- 49:01Speaker 1: he doesn't. It's it's always appropriate when the welfare of
- 49:06Speaker 1: your child is at stake, you call anybody in everyone.
- 49:10Speaker 4: Yea, yeah, I can't pick.
- 49:14Speaker 1: Exactly it was inappropriate, but it was absolutely appropriate if
- 49:19Speaker 1: you look at it.
- 49:20Speaker 5: Yeah, like he he shouldn't have, but he didn't have
- 49:24Speaker 5: a choice, so like I agree there, Like, yeah, from
- 49:28Speaker 5: a moral perspective, he shouldn't have called someone that he
- 49:31Speaker 5: left that, But.
- 49:34Speaker 1: You know, it's the health of the child. The child,
- 49:39Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of a dangerous situation.
- 49:42Speaker 3: So empathy for Lurlai going because that is Rory's sister. Yeah,
- 49:49Speaker 3: and this is the father of her child who literally
- 49:53Speaker 3: needs help. It's like, what is she supposed to say?
- 49:56Speaker 5: No, I do think that like Christopher and Laura I
- 50:00Speaker 5: have gone through so much together that they're always there
- 50:03Speaker 5: for each other no matter what, like, no matter how
- 50:06Speaker 5: ugly they they left.
- 50:08Speaker 1: Let me let me stop you right there. What have
- 50:11Speaker 1: they gone through together? Besides having a child at sixteen
- 50:15Speaker 1: and then I mean that's a massive thing to go
- 50:17Speaker 1: through and like that was when they were sixteen. What
- 50:20Speaker 1: have they gone through since well they've.
- 50:22Speaker 3: Really they've gotten back together, so god, so together.
- 50:26Speaker 1: They've been there. He's been there all these all these years.
- 50:30Speaker 1: Who's been there for them? What have they gone through?
- 50:34Speaker 1: Very much?
- 50:35Speaker 3: I mean they've gone through there.
- 50:38Speaker 1: I'm sorry. He's a deadbeat dad. Let's let's call him
- 50:42Speaker 1: what he is. Let's call him out for what. He's
- 50:44Speaker 1: a deadbeat dad who abandoned his kid, and that's what
- 50:48Speaker 1: he is. So sorry.
- 50:50Speaker 5: I have to if he was there, if he was
- 50:52Speaker 5: there for Rory, he would know how to help his
- 50:55Speaker 5: child exactly exactly.
- 50:57Speaker 1: Guys nailed it, and I'm done. That's a poster you
- 51:01Speaker 1: just got, Polister.
- 51:02Speaker 3: He didn't actually abandon them. He was wanting to marry Larelai.
- 51:07Speaker 6: She left, she left. I was about to say, she's
- 51:10Speaker 6: the one.
- 51:11Speaker 3: She left so and she he didn't her after her
- 51:14Speaker 3: and go live in stars Hollow. But he wanted to
- 51:16Speaker 3: marry her.
- 51:17Speaker 4: He was he didn't want to.
- 51:20Speaker 1: He was the child.
- 51:23Speaker 5: He didn't He didn't want to marry her. He was
- 51:26Speaker 5: being forced by his parents to marry her. There's two
- 51:28Speaker 5: very different.
- 51:29Speaker 1: He wanted to marry her though there's a way to
- 51:32Speaker 1: legally compel the other party. Uh to agree to include
- 51:39Speaker 1: the father in that child. He didn't do that.
- 51:43Speaker 3: That was correct, And the reason he didn't do that
- 51:46Speaker 3: is because that would have meant Lorelai had to stay
- 51:49Speaker 3: in with the Gilmours, and he knew she wanted to leave.
- 51:54Speaker 3: She did not want to be with Richard and Emily anymore.
- 51:57Speaker 3: She wanted to take the baby and go out on
- 51:59Speaker 3: her own. So, yes, your argument is correct. It's another size.
- 52:04Speaker 1: Was he an alcoholic? Was he a drug addict? Was
- 52:06Speaker 1: he a criminal? No he was. He was not any
- 52:09Speaker 1: of those things. He could have fought for his child.
- 52:12Speaker 1: Sixteen years at least. I don't care how old he
- 52:15Speaker 1: was a child into the world.
- 52:17Speaker 3: But you're missing the one point that was trying to do.
- 52:21Speaker 1: He didn't try hard enough. He disappeared out of their lives.
- 52:24Speaker 1: Wait and then he comes floating back in and out,
- 52:26Speaker 1: and I'm glad he got.
- 52:27Speaker 3: I agree that you can have angst and animosity towards Christopher,
- 52:31Speaker 3: but at the same time.
- 52:32Speaker 1: It's no. It's anybody abandons their child and doesn't fight
- 52:37Speaker 1: for their kid.
- 52:38Speaker 3: But then how come you're not mad at Lauren for
- 52:40Speaker 3: taking the kid, Loraly for taking Rory away. She took
- 52:45Speaker 3: Rory and left. He's sixteen, right, he's not even eighteen.
- 52:49Speaker 1: There's because she did okay, because she did that for
- 52:53Speaker 1: her child. She Christoph thought what she did was best
- 52:56Speaker 1: for her.
- 52:56Speaker 3: Christopher did it for Lauralai. He was sixteen years old,
- 53:00Speaker 3: and Christopher's gotten His.
- 53:02Speaker 1: Obligation isn't to Laurel, it's to his child. No, but
- 53:05Speaker 1: it's to be around and be in her life, whether
- 53:08Speaker 1: it's at a distance or infrequent, but be in the
- 53:10Speaker 1: area so he's available. I don't, I don't.
- 53:12Speaker 5: I don't think you can fault anybody for what Larelai did.
- 53:16Speaker 5: I don't think you can fault Christopher for what he
- 53:18Speaker 5: did at sixteen years old.
- 53:20Speaker 4: But he had many years to figure it out and
- 53:23Speaker 4: he never did.
- 53:24Speaker 1: He never did that.
- 53:25Speaker 3: I agree he reas him. To be mad at Christopher
- 53:30Speaker 3: is not the first five years of her life. It's
- 53:33Speaker 3: the next you know, after that, And how now he's
- 53:38Speaker 3: got his himself together and he doesn't call and he
- 53:42Speaker 3: doesn't he isn't involved, So the being mad at Christopher
- 53:45Speaker 3: to me really comes later.
- 53:48Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, And I think I also think that Laurela
- 53:53Speaker 6: is not the person to say no if someone's asking
- 53:56Speaker 6: for like straight up asking for help, and I think
- 53:59Speaker 6: her going over there, like I don't think she wanted to,
- 54:02Speaker 6: but I think she knew that he's He's basically it's
- 54:06Speaker 6: him and the baby, and she's been through that by
- 54:09Speaker 6: herself with Rory, and she's like, well, I.
- 54:12Speaker 3: Also think there's something in Loralai who likes to be
- 54:15Speaker 3: the savior, right correct. So Christopher calls he needs her,
- 54:20Speaker 3: she goes running because she can fix everything and save everything.
- 54:23Speaker 3: I also think she said to Christopher, He's like, I
- 54:26Speaker 3: can't do this, and she basically said, in my opinion,
- 54:30Speaker 3: you have to because you didn't do it the first time.
- 54:33Speaker 6: And I got I had the same takeaway Amy. I
- 54:36Speaker 6: thought the same thing. It's like she's like, I did
- 54:38Speaker 6: it on my own, so now you have to do
- 54:40Speaker 6: it on your own.
- 54:40Speaker 3: Right, you blew it the first time, and now you
- 54:43Speaker 3: you you can't blow it this time.
- 54:45Speaker 1: He's always worming out of God.
- 54:48Speaker 5: It's just man, But now it's making me feel like
- 54:52Speaker 5: he should. Like to answer your question, Tara, I think
- 54:55Speaker 5: he isn't the wrong for calling her, Like, if I
- 54:57Speaker 5: had to pick one of the other scenario, it's that
- 55:00Speaker 5: because he left her to do.
- 55:03Speaker 4: To raise Rory, by her herself.
- 55:05Speaker 3: It was very selfish.
- 55:06Speaker 4: So you know what, now it's time for him to
- 55:07Speaker 4: figure it out.
- 55:08Speaker 5: Like, that's very like if I had to pick after
- 55:11Speaker 5: this conversation we had, it makes me feel like Teeter
- 55:15Speaker 5: on that side.
- 55:16Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
- 55:18Speaker 1: Because he's feeling so whiny about it and yeah, feeling
- 55:22Speaker 1: so sorry for himself that he's in this. It's like
- 55:24Speaker 1: you just want to smack him and say, stop complaining,
- 55:28Speaker 1: stop whining, take a shower, shut up and raise your daughter. Yeah,
- 55:34Speaker 1: for God's sake, you know, really, stop stop acting this way.
- 55:37Speaker 1: Your life, the life you knew is gone. Now. It's
- 55:42Speaker 1: not about you, any part of you anymore. You take
- 55:45Speaker 1: care of that baby and you get act. I mean,
- 55:48Speaker 1: it's just like Laurel. I should have braced him a
- 55:50Speaker 1: little harder, but she couldn't have done it in front
- 55:51Speaker 1: of it.
- 55:52Speaker 4: Yeah, I think she did it the best way she could.
- 55:55Speaker 5: Like I think saying I did this by myself, you
- 55:58Speaker 5: can too.
- 56:00Speaker 6: Yeah. I think the part that bothered me was that
- 56:02Speaker 6: he's like, well, I was traveling and then I came
- 56:04Speaker 6: back from being gone for so many months. Then she's
- 56:06Speaker 6: gone as if like he also didn't seem like he
- 56:09Speaker 6: was there for Gigi, right or yeah, or Sherry. So
- 56:14Speaker 6: it kind of is like, now he's like, oh, I
- 56:16Speaker 6: feel bad for me, you know, even though he also
- 56:20Speaker 6: wasn't there.
- 56:22Speaker 1: He can't avoid but.
- 56:23Speaker 6: But he made it seem like he's never there, like
- 56:26Speaker 6: traveling for work. I understand if you're gone for like
- 56:27Speaker 6: a couple of days at a time, but it made
- 56:30Speaker 6: maybe I need to rewatch it the way he made
- 56:32Speaker 6: it seems like he was gone for like a chunk
- 56:34Speaker 6: of time.
- 56:35Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 56:36Speaker 5: I think now he's he's realizing he's stuck because Sherry's gone,
- 56:40Speaker 5: so now he has to like figure it out.
- 56:43Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 56:44Speaker 3: Well, and what do we think of Sherry leaving?
- 56:47Speaker 6: I mean, I mean that.
- 56:50Speaker 3: Conversation Christopher, like she left with a note.
- 56:57Speaker 6: With the nanny.
- 56:58Speaker 3: Yeah, just unbelievable, And nobody really brings that up in
- 57:03Speaker 3: the episode, like wtf Sherry.
- 57:06Speaker 1: Yeah, well, it's just so shocking. How to even address
- 57:10Speaker 1: it in the moment. Yeah, that's right right there. She's poor,
- 57:17Speaker 1: poor kid, So the kid's the one that suffers.
- 57:21Speaker 3: I guess we'll come back to talk about the scene
- 57:24Speaker 3: with Rory. In the meantime, we've got Doyle and Paris
- 57:28Speaker 3: having their moment about you know, you think he's going
- 57:31Speaker 3: to be so mad at her because she's being a lunatic,
- 57:34Speaker 3: but instead he's super happy about it. You know how
- 57:37Speaker 3: she's like offending essentially all the religious leaders. So then
- 57:42Speaker 3: Rory wants to change her story. And now she's digging
- 57:44Speaker 3: into the Secret Society and she learns about the life
- 57:50Speaker 3: and death Brigrade and the Umbrella Jump. We sort of
- 57:52Speaker 3: start to see the pictures. We learned that that Mitcham
- 57:56Speaker 3: was in it, or we assume Mitcham's in it because
- 57:58Speaker 3: the other the.
- 58:00Speaker 6: Grandfather, yeah, Logan's grandfather.
- 58:05Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 58:06Speaker 3: We do get that funny scene where they go to
- 58:09Speaker 3: Friday night dinner and neither of the grandparents are there.
- 58:13Speaker 6: I know, I was kind of excited to see Emily
- 58:15Speaker 6: and Richard and then I was like, oh yeah, and then.
- 58:17Speaker 3: They want to like tear up the house and eat
- 58:19Speaker 3: pizza on the floor, and that's when she's like ready
- 58:23Speaker 3: for the gossip. Sherry left your dad Like that was.
- 58:26Speaker 1: Sort of like that's when I felt horrible for Rory.
- 58:29Speaker 1: Did you sear your Yeah? She just yeah, I felt
- 58:35Speaker 1: all of her I felt all of her abandonment issues
- 58:38Speaker 1: with Christopher and all of her protective instincts for her
- 58:43Speaker 1: mother and this relationship come out in a couple of
- 58:45Speaker 1: different expressions.
- 58:46Speaker 3: It was amazing acting by Alexis, right.
- 58:49Speaker 1: Because brilliant. Brilliant.
- 58:51Speaker 3: Yeah, because I was very worried, and I knew immediately
- 58:55Speaker 3: that Rory was worried not about Christopher. Somehow she can
- 59:00Speaker 3: made in her emotions and faith. She was worried about the.
- 59:04Speaker 1: Pain that she of, that that void in her life. Right,
- 59:09Speaker 1: the pain of it would have been you know, what
- 59:10Speaker 1: would have been better off if he had just disappeared
- 59:13Speaker 1: and she'd never known him, Right, But the teasing of
- 59:18Speaker 1: it over the years and him letting them down constantly,
- 59:22Speaker 1: you know that that's a big hole inside her.
- 59:23Speaker 3: Yeah, you knew that this was much good she she
- 59:26Speaker 3: Alexis really did an amazing job. Because we all got that.
- 59:31Speaker 1: We all were like, oh, yeah, she's very good. She's
- 59:35Speaker 1: very subtle, she's very lunch. She's very very good at this.
- 59:38Speaker 1: It's amazing somebody that didn't even study. She just has
- 59:41Speaker 1: all that intelligence and all those instincts. She's very easy
- 59:45Speaker 1: to watch if you just watch her face. You know,
- 59:49Speaker 1: every there's not a lot, you know, it's not histrionic.
- 59:52Speaker 1: It's not big facial movements or is. She's very controlled and.
- 59:57Speaker 3: Such a good That's such a great point because I'll
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: skip ahead when Logan and Rory are instant messaging, you know,
- 1:00:05Speaker 3: on the computer. There's no talking, and it's like one
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: of the best scenes ever because they're both like doing
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: amazing you know whatever, we like to call it face acting.
- 1:00:17Speaker 3: And then when they're doing that and then she says
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: I agree and he is, He's gone.
- 1:00:22Speaker 6: I was just like, Oh, she loved that banswer too totally.
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: She I think she's starting to love him.
- 1:00:31Speaker 6: Yeah, I think she's feeling challenged by him.
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: The only part I will call out from the episode
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: that I thought was weird is I think she would
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: have called him Logan, not Huntsburger. You know, when she's
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: stalking him and she's all, hey, Huntsburger.
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: I was like, yeah.
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: But the thing I loved is it's the first time
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: Ace Ace. So remember Scott, in the beginning you did
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: not like it. But in the beginning of I was
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: doing this podcast, But now do you like it little
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: bit more?
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: When you love I love everything about it. I get
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: it now. I never saw the show, and then now
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: I get it.
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: He's like, Hay, and I'm like, I just died.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: It was so good. That's a total one ad on
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: my part.
- 1:01:15Speaker 3: There wasn't a lot of Luke in this episode. There
- 1:01:18Speaker 3: was because he obviously.
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: Was in the opening scene and how much can you
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: really taske he's fixed.
- 1:01:23Speaker 3: In the oven and then now he has the meltdown
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: over Kirk in the costume, which also made no sense
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: because it's like Sukie would never serve.
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: But that but that was Kirk's disconnect and what a
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: crappy thing to do to Luke. Here is this this
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: this guy trying to destroy his base.
- 1:01:46Speaker 3: He's dating the owner, right, that was weird.
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: It was a weird move right, and we got the comedy.
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: It was funny as heck, But you know, also it
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: was like, as a community, why would you do why
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: would you try to missile somebody's business like that, you know,
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: to help somebody else?
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: It was weird, totally agree, totally great and that was.
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: A strange, a strange.
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: So then.
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: I did see I did enjoy the visual kirkinghut, you
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: can't you can't live there.
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: Shout out to Sean Gunn because not only the Guardians,
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: he also just died on The Good Doctor. Just he
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: died so fast on the boiler alert, brutal.
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: What is what is The Good Doctor?
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: The Good Doctor is an amazing show on ABC that
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: stars Freddie Hymore and it is really a good show.
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: And he was on there as he was a guest star.
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: Just super fast, like he basically was in a car
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: wreck with the kids. It was gnarly, there was fog,
- 1:02:46Speaker 3: and then you think he's fine and then he literally
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: just like died.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Well, he's got a big movie coming out to the Guardians.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: I know, he's got a big part. This is like
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: kind of his coming out party.
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: In this strench well, and his brother is like the director, right.
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: His brother's the writer director. And also the Marvel Studios.
- 1:03:06Speaker 3: I mean, wow, it's.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Hard to blow that addition, right studios. My dad's so sorry. Yes,
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: thank you, good catch, Hannah and jack thank you.
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: Let's talk about the final scene.
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: Easton, Thank you, Easton, Thank you, Jackie. Just taking.
- 1:03:28Speaker 3: What do you think about Rory going to see Christopher?
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I never liked her more, I never liked him.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: It's exactly what she needed to do. It was very
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: cathartic thing for her to do. She's probably been wanting
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: to do it off and on for her whole life,
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: and it.
- 1:03:43Speaker 5: Needed to come from her, you know, like if Laura
- 1:03:46Speaker 5: I said I need you to stop, it wouldn't stop.
- 1:03:48Speaker 5: Like it needed to come from Rory.
- 1:03:52Speaker 6: And I like when she said, you can call anyone,
- 1:03:55Speaker 6: you can call me, but don't call LAURAAI.
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, leave mom alone.
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: She's protecting She's protecting everybody's heart there. She's protecting her
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: own because she doesn't have it. She doesn't really feel
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: much for him anyway. I mean she I think she
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: likes him because you know she likes him, right, she
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: gave him a hug and you know, I'm still going
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: to be in your life, but we don't rely on
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: you and don't you know, don't do this. I thought
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: it was a wonderful moment, her highlight. That was a
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: highlight for me.
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: And it just shows I know I always say this
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: and I'm so redundant, but it just shows the like
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: juxtaposition you can have in these episodes where it's like funny, funny, exciting, exciting,
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: you know, laughy, laughy, and then it's just like whah,
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: because it was like yeah, oh yeah, And not to
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: make light but those are. That is an instance when
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: it's okay to say leave mom alone. You don't have
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: to say leave my mom alone because the mom is related.
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: So I love this episode. I did too.
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: It was Yeah, I mean, what's the what's the measuring stick?
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: You were going to choose, Tara.
