- 0:22Speaker 1: An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back another episode of
- 0:26Speaker 1: I'm All in Town meeting with myself, Tara and Susanne. Hello. Hello.
- 0:31Speaker 1: We're talking about season four, episode one, Ballrooms and Viscatti,
- 0:36Speaker 1: which aired on September twenty third, two thousand and three.
- 0:40Speaker 2: There was a lot of action packed into this one.
- 0:42Speaker 1: A lot, and I actually liked that we didn't jump
- 0:46Speaker 1: into like Yale yet, Like we kind of did, but
- 0:49Speaker 1: not really.
- 0:50Speaker 3: Yeah, like they talk about it, but we're not there yet.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Yeah, it would have been It would have been too
- 0:55Speaker 2: abrupt to just open at Yeah.
- 0:57Speaker 1: I like that they eased us back into the season
- 0:59Speaker 1: with basically.
- 1:00Speaker 3: All stars hollow.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like last episode like very town centric,
- 1:06Speaker 1: Like last time we had a town meeting. This when
- 1:08Speaker 1: we have the ice cream Queen open soda shop opening.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, so the soda shop was supposed
- 1:15Speaker 2: to open earlier and it got postponed because of friend's
- 1:19Speaker 2: death funeral, but they postponed it like a really long time.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Well, I wonder if they were waiting for Rory to
- 1:25Speaker 1: get back to be named the ice Cream Queen without
- 1:28Speaker 1: her approval, which, by the way, I thought it was
- 1:32Speaker 1: like At first, I was like, why is she so pissed?
- 1:35Speaker 1: But then I was like, if I'm dealing with the
- 1:39Speaker 1: thousand things and then someone expects something from me, I'd
- 1:42Speaker 1: be pissed too.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Yeah, especially if they didn't tell you they were expecting
- 1:46Speaker 2: something from you. They were just putting posters all over.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Like passive aggressive comments during the like the like speech
- 1:53Speaker 1: or like the grand opening up and she's just standing
- 1:56Speaker 1: there and he's like staring at her sitting and I'm like,
- 1:58Speaker 1: so funny. Yeah, I do have a really big bone
- 2:03Speaker 1: to pick for this episode.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Go for it.
- 2:06Speaker 1: This is so like it's a random bone to pick.
- 2:12Speaker 1: They bought four hundred gifts for everyone. Yes, why couldn't
- 2:17Speaker 1: they give one of the gifts from Europe to Luke
- 2:20Speaker 1: and then give someone else the jam.
- 2:22Speaker 2: That's a good question unless they had already distributed it.
- 2:25Speaker 1: They didn't though, Okay, they realized as they were distributing
- 2:29Speaker 1: that they forgot Luke right, or they were in the
- 2:31Speaker 1: process of.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Because they were talking about how they
- 2:34Speaker 2: were going to start at one end of town and
- 2:36Speaker 2: work their way around, So.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Why couldn't like, why couldn't Luke get the damn rosary
- 2:41Speaker 1: or something?
- 2:41Speaker 2: You know what I mean? That's true.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, you guys, you have a thousand
- 2:46Speaker 1: gifts you brought apparently in your in your backpack, which
- 2:49Speaker 1: also made no sense to me. Like they're like, we
- 2:51Speaker 1: bought gifts for the whole town, and they were naming
- 2:53Speaker 1: people in the town who I'm like, who's that?
- 2:55Speaker 2: And how did they get all that home? Yeah? I
- 2:57Speaker 2: was looking when they were putting name tags on things
- 2:59Speaker 2: that I was trying to like one of them said Christine,
- 3:02Speaker 2: and I think one of them said Amy, which I thought,
- 3:05Speaker 2: you know, probably a cute little nod to Amy. But yeah,
- 3:08Speaker 2: all these rando's in the town got but.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Amy's gifts couldn't go to Luke. Like it was one
- 3:13Speaker 1: of those things.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I was like, why are.
- 3:14Speaker 1: We doing this? Like I understand it's funny, but I
- 3:17Speaker 1: was also pissed off because I'm like, just switch a gift,
- 3:19Speaker 1: no one's gonna know.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's true.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Well no, but didn't wait hold on, didn't Kirk get
- 3:25Speaker 1: a gift?
- 3:26Speaker 2: No he did not.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Oh, he didn't get a gift because he was he
- 3:28Speaker 3: was upset.
- 3:29Speaker 1: That he didn't get fake.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Jam, right, he was upset that he didn't get anything.
- 3:33Speaker 2: And then Lorlay said, well, you know, so Lorlay said,
- 3:37Speaker 2: we didn't get Luke anything either, and then Kirk said,
- 3:40Speaker 2: I heard he got jam, but it was fake jam,
- 3:43Speaker 2: and yeah. Then he was like, you know.
- 3:45Speaker 1: That's but then, how okay, how did Christine get a
- 3:50Speaker 1: gift but Kirk and Luke didn't get a gift?
- 3:53Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess well they said for Luke
- 3:56Speaker 2: that they were looking for the right thing, Like.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, I guess.
- 3:59Speaker 1: But in that last moment of in the last moment
- 4:01Speaker 1: of oh crap, just switch it anyway, That's why, Yeah,
- 4:06Speaker 1: in my bone, But.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Then we wouldn't have had the funny scenes that we had.
- 4:11Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, But that one did bug me because
- 4:13Speaker 1: I was like, just because I think it bugged me
- 4:16Speaker 1: because we didn't need the scene of them giving him jam,
- 4:20Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
- 4:21Speaker 2: Yeah, it was the funny banter scene though, like I mean,
- 4:24Speaker 2: we're in season four now, so we're trying to get
- 4:27Speaker 2: Luke and Loralai kind of together.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It also I think led to I think it also
- 4:32Speaker 1: led to like what we find out at the end.
- 4:35Speaker 2: What did we find out at the end then he.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Got married and divorced?
- 4:39Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Okay, that wasn't the end end I got confused.
- 4:43Speaker 1: No, no, no, but yeah, towards the end, sorry, towards the end, yes,
- 4:46Speaker 1: which also I guess another thing. Couldn't that have gotten
- 4:51Speaker 1: an alment?
- 4:52Speaker 2: That's what I was wondering too, Like why did it
- 4:54Speaker 2: have to be a divorce? I don't Yeah, I've never
- 4:57Speaker 2: needed the marriage, so I don't know what the rule are.
- 5:00Speaker 2: But yeah, you would.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Think that they how many days do you need to
- 5:05Speaker 1: basically have an ann Like.
- 5:07Speaker 2: They realized it the next morning, so why.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Or like when they got off the ship, which could
- 5:12Speaker 1: have been like four days later?
- 5:13Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, didn't Britney Spears get an annulment she married?
- 5:17Speaker 2: Remember she married that guy in Vegas?
- 5:18Speaker 1: But she basically got an molment the next day? Mmm?
- 5:22Speaker 1: And also did they have to be on land? Like?
- 5:27Speaker 2: Yeah? Like what are the I don't know. I don't
- 5:29Speaker 2: know what the annulment rules are.
- 5:31Speaker 1: And I guess I also don't know the details of
- 5:34Speaker 1: an annulment like as a whole, like is it basically.
- 5:38Speaker 3: I'm gonna sound so stupid for asking this question.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Is there like a grace period orhen you sign your papers,
- 5:44Speaker 1: like if you pull if you pull out like last minute,
- 5:47Speaker 1: like then you you know what I mean?
- 5:49Speaker 2: Like I feel like when you buy a car and
- 5:51Speaker 2: they're like, okay, you have three days to change your mind.
- 5:55Speaker 3: Can you really with a car?
- 5:57Speaker 2: Yeah, with the cot there's a there's a word for it.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Get what the word is, but you can you can
- 6:01Speaker 2: nullify the.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Contract after that the one time, uh I because I
- 6:05Speaker 1: always there. It's so funny. You're either a leasing car
- 6:08Speaker 1: family or you're buying car family, and all my family's
- 6:10Speaker 1: a leasing car family. I got my car and it
- 6:14Speaker 1: was like the car that I've always wanted. I was
- 6:17Speaker 1: so excited because I was paying for it myself, so excited.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Four days, four or five days after I got the car,
- 6:24Speaker 1: I'm driving on the freeway and a rock hits my
- 6:27Speaker 1: windshield and the entire windshield shatters, like literally, it was
- 6:33Speaker 1: like spider. I just started crying. Well one because I
- 6:37Speaker 1: was like, holy shit, I'm gonna into sorry, I'm gonna
- 6:39Speaker 1: get into a car accident.
- 6:41Speaker 2: Yeah, that's terrifle on the freeway. That's terrifying.
- 6:43Speaker 1: And then I was like, what the heck do I do,
- 6:46Speaker 1: and like they couldn't find they didn't have it, Like
- 6:49Speaker 1: they basically couldn't exchange it because it like again, if
- 6:51Speaker 1: it happened like on my way out, I think, like
- 6:54Speaker 1: I don't know. So I basically had to get a
- 6:56Speaker 1: replacement and the piece had to come from Europe and
- 6:58Speaker 1: it took like six months. Oh my gosh, and I
- 7:02Speaker 1: was so sad. So I guess like when you mentioned car,
- 7:05Speaker 1: I'm like, I wish there was a grace period because
- 7:07Speaker 1: I didn't have one. Jumping back into the annulments of it,
- 7:20Speaker 1: all they were they were on a cruise in the States, right, Well.
- 7:29Speaker 2: So there's a there's a conflict there. So in the
- 7:32Speaker 2: last episode he told Lorelai and Rory that they were
- 7:37Speaker 2: going to drive through Western Canada and then take a
- 7:40Speaker 2: cruise to Alaska. But then in this episode where he's
- 7:43Speaker 2: helping Lorelei pack the truck and he's talking about how
- 7:46Speaker 2: he has luggage, he says, he just went on a
- 7:49Speaker 2: seven country cruise. So which is it? We don't know,
- 7:54Speaker 2: We don't know.
- 7:54Speaker 1: That would make the divorce very different, Yeah.
- 7:57Speaker 2: I mean right, because it were they in different country,
- 8:00Speaker 2: were they in Alaska? Were they in international waters?
- 8:03Speaker 1: I just realized when you when you take a cruise
- 8:06Speaker 1: to Alaska. Now I'm I'm not a cruise person, but
- 8:09Speaker 1: a lot of my friends are. And the Alaskan cruise
- 8:12Speaker 1: usually starts from Vancouver. So if they got married and
- 8:17Speaker 1: they were leaving Vancouver, would they have been married in Canada?
- 8:21Speaker 2: Well, they got married on the boat because it was
- 8:24Speaker 2: the ship's captain that married them. So we don't know where.
- 8:26Speaker 1: The Depending on where you are in the waters, you're
- 8:29Speaker 1: either in Canada or the United States.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Yeah, because it wasn't at the beginning of the cruise
- 8:33Speaker 2: because he was talking about how much fun they were
- 8:35Speaker 2: having in all the food, like it was after the
- 8:37Speaker 2: cruise had started, so we don't know.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Also, seven countries would have to be like a what
- 8:44Speaker 1: like a fourteen day cruise? You would think, yeah, because
- 8:48Speaker 1: you because I've done a set. Well, I've done one
- 8:50Speaker 1: cruise in my life and that one cruise was seven
- 8:52Speaker 1: days and we did like four three. Oh no, it
- 8:56Speaker 1: was Caribbean.
- 8:57Speaker 2: But see, and that was going to be my next
- 9:00Speaker 2: point was even if they had gone to Alaska, how
- 9:02Speaker 2: do you hit seven countries from Alaska? Right? Like we
- 9:07Speaker 2: could just do Canada like a river cruise in Europe
- 9:10Speaker 2: or something. Sure, but I don't know. It just it
- 9:13Speaker 2: doesn't match. YEA, from the one episode to Thegether.
- 9:17Speaker 1: My friend did a cruise from literally it was like
- 9:22Speaker 1: New Zealand, Alaska, and then went all the way to
- 9:24Speaker 1: Hawaii and then she move home from Hawaii. But it
- 9:27Speaker 1: was like a twenty one day cruise. She literally like
- 9:30Speaker 1: at one point she has service and she's like, I
- 9:31Speaker 1: cannot wait to get off this boat. Like it was
- 9:33Speaker 1: like a great concept at first, and then she's like
- 9:36Speaker 1: absolutely not.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Yeah, now I am not a cruise person. I drive
- 9:41Speaker 2: by the cruise ships all the time in San Pedro
- 9:43Speaker 2: and yeah, they look gorgeous. But I'm like, I do
- 9:46Speaker 2: not do boats.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Have you done one before?
- 9:48Speaker 2: No? Oh see, I've done the boat to Catalina and
- 9:52Speaker 2: that's it.
- 9:52Speaker 3: The boat to Catalina that is half a minute.
- 9:55Speaker 1: No, that is asking for to throw up, Like that
- 9:59Speaker 1: is the nauseating boat ride I've ever been on. I've
- 10:04Speaker 1: done a cruise once and we had literally the worst
- 10:06Speaker 1: time ever. I was by the way, it was also
- 10:08Speaker 1: a not very nice cruise line and I was like.
- 10:12Speaker 2: I have different personalities.
- 10:14Speaker 1: Yeah, it was not a disney one. I will say
- 10:17Speaker 1: that because I hear those are fun. But I had
- 10:19Speaker 1: a terrible time, and so my friends are always like,
- 10:22Speaker 1: let's do it a Disney cruise. I'm like, I feel
- 10:23Speaker 1: like I'm a no cruise girl. And also the thought
- 10:26Speaker 1: of being trapped in the middle of the ocean, yeah,
- 10:30Speaker 1: that long exactly. Also, have you seen Poop Cruise that's documentary?
- 10:33Speaker 2: Yes, oh my gosh. Yeah no, no, I'm not ever
- 10:36Speaker 2: doing a cruise.
- 10:37Speaker 1: That's like actually my nightmare. Yeah, like I would rather
- 10:40Speaker 1: stroll myself overboard.
- 10:42Speaker 2: I know if you if you are listening and you
- 10:44Speaker 2: haven't watched Poop Cruise, you need you need to watch it,
- 10:48Speaker 2: but don't like do it at dinner.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Because no, it's like, by the way, it's only like
- 10:53Speaker 1: a one hour documentary, like it's the shortest doccubent. It's
- 10:56Speaker 1: not a.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Huge commitment, but it's like it'll stay with you.
- 10:59Speaker 1: For anyway, we derailed majorly today from from an annulment
- 11:06Speaker 1: to poop Cruise. Anyway, but yeah, I didn't realize we
- 11:10Speaker 1: don't know where they went. And Jackie said she's having
- 11:14Speaker 1: a really hard time finding details because it depends on state, right.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Because I was thinking that too, like if they're residents
- 11:21Speaker 2: of Connecticut. Does that have anything to do with it?
- 11:23Speaker 2: Or is it only like where you physically got married.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 11:26Speaker 1: I don't know because I know like people who like
- 11:29Speaker 1: go and get married in like Hawaii, but I think
- 11:31Speaker 1: that they have their marriage license from like the state
- 11:33Speaker 1: they live in.
- 11:34Speaker 3: Oh likely you can take it with you.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Interesting, Yeah, but I don't know. I'm not married.
- 11:39Speaker 2: If you're listening and you've had an annulment, tell us
- 11:41Speaker 2: about it.
- 11:43Speaker 1: How dount we sound right now? I'm not gonna lie
- 11:48Speaker 1: to you. I was about to jump back into the episode,
- 11:50Speaker 1: and I'm like, what else happened? Where are we?
- 11:56Speaker 2: So I have I have a good mistake from the
- 12:00Speaker 2: opening scene. It's a two for one. It's okay, it's
- 12:03Speaker 2: two mistakes in one. So okay, so let me set
- 12:08Speaker 2: the stage. So they come home. First of all, super
- 12:10Speaker 2: shuttle remember super Shuttle? No, you don't remember super Shuttle?
- 12:15Speaker 2: Oh man, that makes me feel old. Okay, never mind.
- 12:18Speaker 2: They come home and the remember the airport vans like
- 12:22Speaker 2: they still have that. Not No, super shuttle is gone.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Like where you'd ride with other people, like you'd go
- 12:28Speaker 2: pick people up and then you'd all go to the
- 12:30Speaker 2: airport together.
- 12:31Speaker 1: I've seen Oh oh okay, I I didn't know that's
- 12:33Speaker 1: what it was called. I do know that. But there's
- 12:35Speaker 1: also oh, I guess it's different. There is like lots
- 12:37Speaker 1: you can park at and everyone takes a shuttle to
- 12:39Speaker 1: the airport.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Yeah, that's different.
- 12:41Speaker 1: No, super shuttle was when they came to your house.
- 12:43Speaker 3: I do remember, Okay, we.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Come pick you up at your house and then they'd
- 12:46Speaker 2: go to the next person's house and pick the next person.
- 12:48Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely not. I think we did it. I think
- 12:51Speaker 1: we did it once, but we went with my family
- 12:52Speaker 1: and so there it was only two stops because there
- 12:54Speaker 1: was such a big group. So that was it.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Yeah, we we've done that. We used to have to
- 12:59Speaker 2: do it because this was like way before uber and lyft.
- 13:03Speaker 2: So if you didn't want to leave your car at
- 13:05Speaker 2: the airport and your friends couldn't take you, you had
- 13:08Speaker 2: to Yes.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Well there's a taxi.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Super shuttle was like fifteen bucks a person.
- 13:13Speaker 3: It was yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 13:15Speaker 2: But yeah, those were the days. So anyways, but that
- 13:17Speaker 2: has nothing to do with what I'm about to say.
- 13:19Speaker 2: So they so that that comes and they all go
- 13:23Speaker 2: in the house and yeah, he's like making hot chocolate
- 13:26Speaker 2: or whatever. So they're sitting at the table and when
- 13:30Speaker 2: Laura I makes the she makes like the yawning motion
- 13:36Speaker 2: to Rory, like as a queue that has to be tired.
- 13:40Speaker 1: Yeah, And so.
- 13:42Speaker 2: When when the camera's on Louren and she's doing the
- 13:44Speaker 2: yawn thing, there is a grocery bag over her shoulder
- 13:50Speaker 2: that was not there throughout the entire rest of the scene.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Oh funny, there's like a grocery bag just randomly shows up.
- 13:57Speaker 2: So that's the first part of the mistake. Bonus part
- 14:01Speaker 2: of the mistake is that it was a Vaughn's bag.
- 14:04Speaker 1: No way, and they do.
- 14:07Speaker 2: Hollow.
- 14:08Speaker 1: There's no Vonns on the East coast either, And.
- 14:12Speaker 2: I looked just to confirm. I looked on the Vaughn's website.
- 14:15Speaker 2: They have like one hundred it's like one hundred and
- 14:17Speaker 2: seventy seven stores in California and then eight in Las Vegas.
- 14:22Speaker 2: And that's yeah, not outside California except for Vegas.
- 14:26Speaker 1: Because I was talking to someone once like when I
- 14:28Speaker 1: was when I was like younger, I didn't realize that
- 14:31Speaker 1: like Ralph's and Vons are not like nationwide like they
- 14:37Speaker 1: because there's like Safeway right right stay, Like I know,
- 14:40Speaker 1: like there's safe ways. And then there's the one my
- 14:43Speaker 1: friend talks about that she like their sandwiches in Florida
- 14:46Speaker 1: and I'm blanking on the name, but like, yeah, I
- 14:49Speaker 1: didn't realize it, but there was no Vons in Connecticut,
- 14:55Speaker 1: let alone and stars hollow.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Yeah, so rewatched that scene because there's no And then
- 15:01Speaker 2: when she does the yawning thing, there is suddenly a
- 15:03Speaker 2: Vaughn's bag sitting behind her on the table.
- 15:06Speaker 1: I wonder why that moment, Like, I wonder if they
- 15:08Speaker 1: have to come back and like redo that one part.
- 15:10Speaker 2: You know, it's a hot set, Like why would you
- 15:12Speaker 2: set a bag there.
- 15:13Speaker 1: Unless it was like in rehearsal and they were filming
- 15:16Speaker 1: it and they used it.
- 15:17Speaker 2: You know, Oh maybe yeah that could be.
- 15:19Speaker 1: We'll never know to be honest exactly.
- 15:22Speaker 2: So I have another speaking of bones to pick. I
- 15:24Speaker 2: want to talk about and.
- 15:27Speaker 3: To really ripping this episode apart.
- 15:28Speaker 1: I like that though.
- 15:29Speaker 2: There's a ton of mistakes in this episode. I haven't
- 15:32Speaker 2: even barely started, okay, but I want I, like I
- 15:35Speaker 2: alluded to in the in our last episode, I want
- 15:38Speaker 2: to talk about how long we think they were in Europe.
- 15:41Speaker 1: Yes, they apparently leave after graduation and come back when
- 15:46Speaker 1: she may Yes, well.
- 15:51Speaker 3: Technically it could have been June.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Well, the episode aired in May, so I just was going.
- 15:56Speaker 1: Oh, well, I was like, my high school graduation was
- 15:59Speaker 1: in June, was too, So let's hypothetically say June. Yeah,
- 16:04Speaker 1: and then I would say that she's moving in at
- 16:09Speaker 1: the end of or mid August.
- 16:12Speaker 3: So they were gone for about let's say two months.
- 16:16Speaker 2: So that's that's what it feels like, especially because Suki
- 16:21Speaker 2: wasn't really showing when they left, and when they come back,
- 16:24Speaker 2: she's like, yes, yes, pregnant, and Luke says when he
- 16:28Speaker 2: left them at the graduation, he says, i'll see you
- 16:31Speaker 2: in a few months. H But Emily asked them when
- 16:35Speaker 2: they were coming back, and Laurel I says, we'll be
- 16:37Speaker 2: back on the.
- 16:38Speaker 3: Twenty seventh of August, which seems.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Late to get to Yale.
- 16:45Speaker 1: You know, I will say, I don't know about schools
- 16:51Speaker 1: on the East Coast, let alone Yale, but if I'm
- 16:54Speaker 1: thinking about in California. It also is based on if
- 16:59Speaker 1: you're on a semester or a quarter system. Yes, So
- 17:03Speaker 1: like for me, I went to cal State Northridge and
- 17:06Speaker 1: we were semesters, so I always started the end of August.
- 17:09Speaker 1: My friends who went to UCLA, they are a quarter system,
- 17:13Speaker 1: and they always would start after a labor day because
- 17:16Speaker 1: you went to UCLA, right, Yeah, when.
- 17:18Speaker 2: I went to UCLA, we started at the end of September.
- 17:21Speaker 2: I very clearly remember when I was a freshman. My
- 17:23Speaker 2: first day of school was September twenty eighth.
- 17:26Speaker 1: I was like that, Wait, I I was one month
- 17:29Speaker 1: in yeah, like by that point.
- 17:31Speaker 2: So, but it seemed but Yale, we know Yale is semesters,
- 17:36Speaker 2: because okay, that's true, talk about it. But so the
- 17:40Speaker 2: twenty seventh, like August twenty seventh would be too late.
- 17:44Speaker 1: Wait, but is August twenty seventh the day they were
- 17:46Speaker 1: supposed to come back. Then they come back a week late.
- 17:48Speaker 1: So she came back September like fifth or whatever.
- 17:51Speaker 2: I think they only came back like two days late.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Oh okay, god, something like that kind of it's kind
- 17:56Speaker 1: of makes sense.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Well, but if they come back, if they come back
- 18:00Speaker 2: to twenty seventh, and they were like a day or
- 18:03Speaker 2: two late, let's say we do so it's August twenty
- 18:08Speaker 2: seventh is too late. Yeah, but then they have to
- 18:11Speaker 2: be at Yale like two days later. So if it
- 18:13Speaker 2: was July twenty seventh.
- 18:15Speaker 1: And she doesn't have her classes yet or anything, right.
- 18:19Speaker 2: But so they if because we know it's not August
- 18:22Speaker 2: twenty seventh, So if it was July twenty seventh, then
- 18:24Speaker 2: that's way too early to be going to Yale. If
- 18:27Speaker 2: they had to be there two days later, like they
- 18:29Speaker 2: wouldn't have them moving in this So I don't know.
- 18:32Speaker 1: I also wonder why twenty seventh because the episode aired
- 18:35Speaker 1: on September twenty thirty, so it was a like numbers thing.
- 18:38Speaker 2: Yeah, good point. Okay, don't they register freshmen usually like
- 18:42Speaker 2: at orientation, Like that's when you go meet with your
- 18:44Speaker 2: counselor and stuff.
- 18:46Speaker 3: I mean I have no, I don't remember.
- 18:48Speaker 2: I don't know. That's how we did it, and I
- 18:49Speaker 2: know that's how my son did it too, when he
- 18:51Speaker 2: went to college a couple of years ago.
- 18:53Speaker 1: No, mine was fifteen years ago at R but I
- 18:58Speaker 1: I will that takes me back to the paris of
- 19:03Speaker 1: it all. In June.
- 19:06Speaker 3: She wouldn't have known if she was going to Yale.
- 19:08Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you you would think what is it.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Called when you're like when you don't get in I
- 19:16Speaker 1: mean not waitlisted, but like, isn't there a way where
- 19:19Speaker 1: like you could maybe get in even if you were denied, Like,
- 19:22Speaker 1: isn't there something deferred?
- 19:24Speaker 3: Thank you?
- 19:25Speaker 1: Over the word? Could she have been deferred?
- 19:28Speaker 2: Well, but isn't deferred like you would start the next semester?
- 19:32Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 19:33Speaker 2: I never like she'd be starting in January.
- 19:35Speaker 1: I never looked into it because I didn't have to
- 19:37Speaker 1: deal with.
- 19:37Speaker 2: It, I know. So anyway, it's a mystery.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Honestly, I could talk about this for a long time, but.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, if Laurla hadn't said
- 19:49Speaker 2: they would be back on the twenty seventh, then it
- 19:51Speaker 2: would all make perfect sense. Yeah, but it's just that
- 19:54Speaker 2: that date is throwing me off.
- 19:57Speaker 1: Well yeah, if they just she didn't need she could
- 19:59Speaker 1: have said like, oh we came back Wednesday, you know,
- 20:01Speaker 1: it would have changed everything.
- 20:03Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, why twenty seventh?
- 20:05Speaker 1: I don't know. Someone wants to throw a date in there.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I think, yeah, they probably just picked a date and
- 20:09Speaker 2: figured that nobody was gonna be picking it apart like
- 20:12Speaker 2: I am. There was a clown pillow. Did you see
- 20:15Speaker 2: the clown pillow?
- 20:16Speaker 1: Yeah? Twice? Right, there's two two? Uh? Was it?
- 20:19Speaker 2: I only saw it once? When they were like kind
- 20:21Speaker 2: of arranging the souvenirs.
- 20:22Speaker 1: And there was a second time. I just don't remember where.
- 20:25Speaker 1: I just remember noting I saw it twice.
- 20:27Speaker 2: I missed it, darn it.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Yeah, but I did see it. It was actually like full display.
- 20:41Speaker 2: So Jackson doesn't want to know.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was I thought the I thought the
- 20:48Speaker 1: button was kind of funny.
- 20:49Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie the.
- 20:51Speaker 2: So there the button. Okay, can we talk about the button?
- 20:56Speaker 2: So did you notice in the scene where are talking
- 21:01Speaker 2: about the button and Rory is sitting on the couch
- 21:04Speaker 2: next to Jackson. One of the shots, you can see
- 21:08Speaker 2: she's already wearing the button and he hasn't even handed
- 21:11Speaker 2: it to her yet.
- 21:12Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't notice that.
- 21:14Speaker 2: You can just see like the very like edge of
- 21:16Speaker 2: her shoulder. It's like you can't you have to look hard.
- 21:19Speaker 1: It was like take seventy five at that rate. I'm sure. Yeah.
- 21:23Speaker 2: And then another thing that I have no explanation for
- 21:28Speaker 2: is that the button itself changed. So when she's talking
- 21:33Speaker 2: no the words, oh so when she's talking to Taylor
- 21:37Speaker 2: in the soda shop, her button says, I do not
- 21:40Speaker 2: want to know the sex of my baby. But then
- 21:42Speaker 2: when she walks back to Laurelized house and now all
- 21:44Speaker 2: of a sudden, the button says, I don't want to know,
- 21:47Speaker 2: Like it's a completely different button. I don't know why
- 21:53Speaker 2: that would have mattered.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Maybe there were multiples per per day, per outfit, but
- 22:00Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was kind of I don't know,
- 22:03Speaker 2: it's kind of old fashioned that Jackson wasn't gonna.
- 22:06Speaker 1: I actually know. I actually know a couple of people
- 22:08Speaker 1: who like to this day, still don't want it. I
- 22:10Speaker 1: want to know the sex, and they buy like neutral
- 22:12Speaker 1: colors like beige's and yellows.
- 22:15Speaker 2: I'm just supprised he didn't.
- 22:16Speaker 1: He wasn't gonna be in the delivery room with I
- 22:18Speaker 1: also find it really interesting that Jackson has a lot
- 22:20Speaker 1: to say about everything. Yes, you know what I mean,
- 22:24Speaker 1: there's just so many opinions.
- 22:26Speaker 2: He does well, and when they first get there he
- 22:29Speaker 2: rushes out. He's like, don't squish baby. It's like, you know, dude,
- 22:33Speaker 2: just shut up.
- 22:34Speaker 3: He kind of bugs I'm not gonna lie.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Yeah, he was kind of annoying about the whole thing.
- 22:39Speaker 1: Also, complete sidebar. I have to text you, guys. I
- 22:42Speaker 1: just looked over my dog to see what he's doing,
- 22:44Speaker 1: and he is just got.
- 22:45Speaker 2: I'm seeing these pictures that you're taking.
- 22:48Speaker 1: It's just because it's so funny. I'm so sorry. I
- 22:51Speaker 1: have to just like derail for two seconds because he's
- 22:54Speaker 1: like sitting on my pillows and he has a neck
- 22:56Speaker 1: pillow because he just got neutered, and it just is
- 22:58Speaker 1: so funny the way he's sitting. I just texted it
- 23:05Speaker 1: to you guys because I was like, I can't. You're
- 23:07Speaker 1: gonna be like, what the hell are you doing? But
- 23:09Speaker 1: there was a reason because it was so funny. He
- 23:15Speaker 1: looks like he's just in a pile of pillows that
- 23:17Speaker 1: good stuff, laughing at it. Anyway. Sorry, Okay, we're gonna
- 23:23Speaker 1: have to.
- 23:23Speaker 2: Post these on Instagram now so everybody else can share
- 23:26Speaker 2: the blurty.
- 23:28Speaker 1: We're just kind out man.
- 23:32Speaker 3: We are really just unhinged this episode.
- 23:35Speaker 2: And then did you see the hand, the mysterious hand?
- 23:39Speaker 2: So when when Suki and what's her what's her name? Lauralai?
- 23:45Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, how did I forget her name? When
- 23:48Speaker 2: they're walking out to the shed where Suki's hiding all
- 23:50Speaker 2: the baby stuff and she opens the door, you can
- 23:53Speaker 2: see like some crew member's hand reaches out to grab
- 23:57Speaker 2: the door, like, so it doesn't shot a flam. Yeah,
- 24:00Speaker 2: so you see like this mysterious hand reaching.
- 24:02Speaker 1: I feel like I don't know why I miss a
- 24:05Speaker 1: lot of those. I'm surprised that's all the shadow in
- 24:07Speaker 1: the last episode, but I'm usually just oblivious to it.
- 24:11Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, you know, it gets to the point where
- 24:13Speaker 2: you've heard the dialogue so many times, you're just looking
- 24:16Speaker 2: at everything else that's happening in that square.
- 24:18Speaker 1: You're right, there are some episodes that we've watched from
- 24:20Speaker 1: I'm like, I've seen this a million times. I already
- 24:22Speaker 1: know what's happening. I'm just looking around.
- 24:24Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's how we noticed the the mic
- 24:28Speaker 2: in the last episode. Like I had never seen it before.
- 24:31Speaker 2: It just this was the first time I had known.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Sorry to bring up the last episode. There was something
- 24:35Speaker 1: I forgot to bring up, which was the Dean conversation.
- 24:39Speaker 2: Mmmm, okay about the wedding gift.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I just want to know your thoughts.
- 24:43Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it was because they had
- 24:46Speaker 2: ended on bad terms before when he told her that
- 24:49Speaker 2: he was getting married and then he didn't like her reaction.
- 24:53Speaker 2: I have a nice live and he you know, goes
- 24:55Speaker 2: and stomps off. So I thought it was kind of
- 24:57Speaker 2: a they were trying to just mend that ridge.
- 25:01Speaker 1: It was a little awkward, But that's see, that's what
- 25:03Speaker 1: I thought. I thought it was awkward. I was like, yeah,
- 25:06Speaker 1: it just felt like it could have been like a,
- 25:09Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 25:09Speaker 3: I think she really went out of her way, and
- 25:11Speaker 3: so I was like, yeah.
- 25:13Speaker 2: I mean I think it was supposed to be awkward
- 25:16Speaker 2: because they had ended on a bad note before, and
- 25:18Speaker 2: so she wasn't sure like how he was going to
- 25:22Speaker 2: react to her. I guess, wait, is it was a
- 25:24Speaker 2: nice gesture?
- 25:25Speaker 3: Is what happens at the end of season four? Season five?
- 25:30Speaker 2: No, it's the end of four because it's when the
- 25:32Speaker 2: Dragonfly opens. That's right, because that's when Luke and Laurel I.
- 25:37Speaker 3: Have that right.
- 25:38Speaker 2: Yeah. Man, So back to fallow the.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Rest of the show.
- 25:47Speaker 2: One thing that bothers me about Rory in this episode
- 25:52Speaker 2: is how she totally throws Larela I under the bus
- 25:56Speaker 2: to Emily.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Yeah, why couldn't she just tell the true exactly?
- 26:01Speaker 2: Like, why couldn't she just say, oh, I wrote the
- 26:03Speaker 2: date down wrong. And so she's just helping me finish
- 26:06Speaker 2: up some stuff. She doesn't. She doesn't take the accountability
- 26:10Speaker 2: for her mistake, and she just lets Emily think that
- 26:14Speaker 2: Laura I doesn't want to come, which wasn't. I mean, well,
- 26:17Speaker 2: Laura didn't want to come, so that was true. But
- 26:22Speaker 2: Emily gets mad at Laurel I over it and it
- 26:25Speaker 2: was Rory's mistake, but Rory's just like, I'm not gonna
- 26:28Speaker 2: say a word about it.
- 26:29Speaker 1: Yeah. It also could have been like I messed up
- 26:32Speaker 1: the date. I didn't want to miss dinner, so Mom's
- 26:35Speaker 1: helping me out. And also in the last episode, the
- 26:38Speaker 1: agreement was that Rory will be yet Friday night dinner
- 26:41Speaker 1: every friend, right, so she kept her promise, so she
- 26:44Speaker 1: could have been like, I kept my promise.
- 26:46Speaker 3: Yeah, so mom's helping me out tonight.
- 26:48Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, we'll be here next week.
- 26:51Speaker 2: And Emily shouldn't necessarily have been expecting Laura I.
- 26:54Speaker 1: And then she gets so mad at her.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Yeah I know, and she was I don't know, she
- 26:59Speaker 2: just was and vindictive about the whole thing, like how
- 27:02Speaker 2: she totally dragged that meal out, and then she's like,
- 27:05Speaker 2: let's watch thirty years worth of ballroom dancing, Like, I
- 27:10Speaker 2: don't know. Emily was just mean in this up. I mean,
- 27:12Speaker 2: she's mean in all the episodes, but yeah, this was
- 27:15Speaker 2: just above and beyond, and it just bothered me that
- 27:18Speaker 2: the whole thing happened because it was Rory's fault. Like it,
- 27:23Speaker 2: she just couldn't admit to her grandmother that she had
- 27:26Speaker 2: made a mistake, and so she just totally let Laura
- 27:28Speaker 2: I take the fall, which.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't like that.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Speaking of the ballroom part, did you know that a
- 27:35Speaker 1: real life reference was made? Yes, this is like a
- 27:39Speaker 1: deep cut if you heard are actually if we did
- 27:43Speaker 1: this obviously we've watched these episodes before. You can go
- 27:46Speaker 1: back to the episode of this recap. So, Corky and
- 27:50Speaker 1: Shirley Ballas are two of like the most famous ballroom dancers.
- 27:57Speaker 1: Their son, Mark is Mark Ballas, who is on Dancing
- 28:00Speaker 1: with the Stars, and so they were referencing his parents.
- 28:05Speaker 1: But what was really interesting is didn't she mentioned She's like, oh,
- 28:08Speaker 1: their son, but his name is I literally had to
- 28:11Speaker 1: google his name and I'm like, his name is Mark Ballas.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Because they called him quirky this, yes, yes.
- 28:17Speaker 3: And so then I was like, is Mark's real name quirky?
- 28:20Speaker 1: Like I literally googled it and I was like, it's not,
- 28:24Speaker 1: it's just Mark. So And also Mark right now is
- 28:29Speaker 1: on Broadway in Chicago.
- 28:32Speaker 2: So and he came, Yeah, he came on the podcast.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 28:36Speaker 3: I actually I've known Mark for a very long time.
- 28:38Speaker 1: I'm trying to go to New York to see him,
- 28:40Speaker 1: and he's him and his wife are just like the
- 28:42Speaker 1: nicest people ever.
- 28:44Speaker 3: Literally, when I broke my ankle, he's on Instagram.
- 28:47Speaker 1: He's texting me.
- 28:47Speaker 3: He's like, are you okay?
- 28:48Speaker 1: Do you need anything? And I'm like, Hi, No, I'm good.
- 28:51Speaker 1: But they're just they're just great people. But yeah, I
- 28:54Speaker 1: actually was about to ask him. I'm like, was your
- 28:56Speaker 1: real name quirky? And we didn't know, but maybe I'll
- 28:59Speaker 1: ask him later.
- 29:01Speaker 2: Well, be sure to let us know if you do
- 29:02Speaker 2: ever get the chance.
- 29:03Speaker 1: Maybe maybe if I go to see him on Broadway
- 29:06Speaker 1: in Chicago, I'll ask him and report back. Yeah, Like,
- 29:09Speaker 1: why why were you a quirky ballast junior on the
- 29:12Speaker 1: Gilmore Girls? Also, what a like obscure reference to have,
- 29:16Speaker 1: Like like it's just be like, oh, my family was
- 29:19Speaker 1: mentioned on Gilmore Girls, Like it was just so like
- 29:22Speaker 1: someone must have been a fan of ballroom dancing.
- 29:25Speaker 2: Yeah, well I know Amy was a dancer. Just I
- 29:30Speaker 2: don't know. I think she did ballet more than ballroom.
- 29:33Speaker 1: So Shirley is also like, you know, Sureley, his mom
- 29:37Speaker 1: is basically who created the concept of Dancing with the stars.
- 29:40Speaker 1: So yeah, so it started in Europe, but like Shirley
- 29:44Speaker 1: basically created dancing with the stars.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Oh that's cool. I didn't know that.
- 29:48Speaker 1: It was kind of a funny thing when the two
- 29:50Speaker 1: of them at the end though, we are just watching
- 29:51Speaker 1: ballroom critiquing it, like.
- 29:53Speaker 2: Yeah, and Emily's asleep in the chair.
- 29:55Speaker 3: It looks so uncomfortable in that position too.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but she, you know, she was bound to
- 30:00Speaker 2: determine that she was going to be there, so yeah,
- 30:03Speaker 2: she'll sleep uncomfortably just to keep them from having an
- 30:07Speaker 2: evening alone.
- 30:08Speaker 1: The other thing about Rory is, even though she obviously
- 30:11Speaker 1: was caught in this live, she didn't tell the truth.
- 30:14Speaker 1: She could have said something at the end like she
- 30:16Speaker 1: just has no backbone with Emily. Yeah, agreed, And then
- 30:19Speaker 1: Laurel is.
- 30:20Speaker 3: A complete opposite and Lorelai will just say whatever the
- 30:22Speaker 3: hell she.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Wants, right, So yeah, two very different sides of the
- 30:29Speaker 2: coin there.
- 30:29Speaker 3: Yeah, do you have anything else this episode? I really
- 30:32Speaker 3: enjoyed this one.
- 30:33Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought this was a good episode two. It's
