Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I Am all in again.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Oh, let's just you.
- 0:17Speaker 1: I Am all in Town meeting with Suzanne French and
- 0:21Speaker 1: Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back to
- 0:25Speaker 1: another episode of I'm All in Town meeting with myself,
- 0:27Speaker 1: Tar and Suzanne. Heh, Hi, Sorry if I sound a
- 0:31Speaker 1: little nasally. You've got this winter cold that's going around.
- 0:35Speaker 2: You do sound a little congested.
- 0:37Speaker 1: It was worse yesterday. I took a suit of fed
- 0:39Speaker 1: so feeling a little bit better. All right. So today
- 0:44Speaker 1: we're talking about season three, episode fourteen, Swan Song, which
- 0:47Speaker 1: aired on February eleventh, two thousand and three. And I
- 0:51Speaker 1: have to start by saying, at last time Susanna and
- 0:54Speaker 1: I were on, she told me that this theory that
- 0:58Speaker 1: I didn't know about about the Swan situation with Jess
- 1:02Speaker 1: and that people don't think it's true.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Well that's my hot take, Okay. I think everybody else
- 1:09Speaker 2: believes the Swan story. I personally think he was lying.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Okay, So I watched it with a completely different mindset
- 1:16Speaker 1: this time, and I think I'm on your side, yay.
- 1:20Speaker 1: But the thing is is, like I can understand where
- 1:23Speaker 1: everyone's like, oh, well, like it's definitely true. Because it's
- 1:27Speaker 1: just such a Gilmore thing, like it's so stupid, right, yeah,
- 1:31Speaker 1: but there's no payoff, right, I mean there is a payoff.
- 1:34Speaker 1: The payoff is that he claims that like, oh I
- 1:37Speaker 1: got hit by a swan, but like that's it.
- 1:41Speaker 2: Yeah. So I've mentioned this in Facebook groups in the past,
- 1:45Speaker 2: like a long time ago, and everybody like jumped all
- 1:48Speaker 2: over me and they were like, well, they went and
- 1:50Speaker 2: they saw the swan, so of course it was the swan.
- 1:53Speaker 2: That doesn't prove anything, though, I mean, the fact that
- 1:56Speaker 2: there's a swan in a lake does not prove that
- 1:59Speaker 2: it attacked Jess because they went to see the swan
- 2:02Speaker 2: and the swan did nothing, like it ignored them. And
- 2:06Speaker 2: I just have a hard time thinking about Jess kind
- 2:08Speaker 2: of as a person and all the shenanigans that he
- 2:11Speaker 2: gets into when he comes to Stars Hollow. He doesn't,
- 2:14Speaker 2: especially to grown ups. He doesn't tell the truth, and
- 2:18Speaker 2: I just have a hard time believing that Luke would
- 2:22Speaker 2: be the one person that he tells the truth too.
- 2:25Speaker 1: So I don't know.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And I remember even the very first time I saw
- 2:29Speaker 2: the episode, when my very first run through of the show,
- 2:32Speaker 2: and I remember like when the episode ended, and he
- 2:35Speaker 2: because he talks about the swan and then he tells
- 2:37Speaker 2: Rory he got hit in the face with a football,
- 2:39Speaker 2: and I remember the episode ended and I thought, but what,
- 2:43Speaker 2: like how did how did it happen? Like I was like, wait,
- 2:45Speaker 2: that's the end. They can't just leave with me, Like
- 2:48Speaker 2: I never thought that we got resolution to that question.
- 2:50Speaker 2: So I don't think it was this one.
- 2:52Speaker 1: There's no payoff, and even like in the episode after
- 2:54Speaker 1: still nothing happened. But also I feel like he was
- 2:58Speaker 1: extra angry, So I would be not that I'm I
- 3:02Speaker 1: would fight someone, but yeah, it would be that level
- 3:05Speaker 1: of angry if I got into a fight with someone,
- 3:08Speaker 1: not if like I tripped and got a bruise. Like
- 3:13Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many times where like I've banged
- 3:15Speaker 1: my like elbow or hip or something into like you know,
- 3:18Speaker 1: like the corner of the table. The amount of times
- 3:20Speaker 1: I've hit a corner of a table on my hip
- 3:21Speaker 1: and then my my hip bone gets a bruise, Like, yeah,
- 3:25Speaker 1: what am I angry at the table? Right? You know,
- 3:28Speaker 1: like especially that angry. I also know that he didn't
- 3:32Speaker 1: want to go to Friday night dinner, so right.
- 3:36Speaker 2: And we've also seen him get in random fights. Before
- 3:38Speaker 2: there was that fight the Dean trying to break up. Yeah,
- 3:42Speaker 2: like just getting on some random guy. So like it
- 3:46Speaker 2: seems like it probably was just he just had some
- 3:48Speaker 2: sort of a conflict with some random person.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know.
- 3:54Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how he got the black eye.
- 3:56Speaker 2: I just don't think it was the Swan. And it
- 3:58Speaker 2: was finning. My husband watched this episode with me and
- 4:01Speaker 2: he did the opposite, like he always distrusted that story also,
- 4:05Speaker 2: but then this time he's like, you know, I don't
- 4:07Speaker 2: know it was Swan because his point, and I can
- 4:11Speaker 2: see his point, was that why would if he was
- 4:16Speaker 2: making up the story, Like why would he have gone
- 4:18Speaker 2: to all that trouble to go to the lake? And yeah,
- 4:22Speaker 2: so I can kind of see that too. But at
- 4:24Speaker 2: the same time, he was also by then so committed
- 4:27Speaker 2: to the lie, maybe that he had to prove his point.
- 4:30Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know the right answer. I
- 4:33Speaker 2: just my gut feeling is that it was not a Swan.
- 4:35Speaker 1: I'd love to hear people's opinions on our Instagram. Yes,
- 4:39Speaker 1: I'd love to hear because I'm a little torn because
- 4:42Speaker 1: then when you put it that way, Like, why would
- 4:44Speaker 1: he go out of his way to go canoe into
- 4:47Speaker 1: the lake? Just a full effort in the Luke.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Right for a lie? I mean yeah, I just feel
- 4:53Speaker 2: like I.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Would have believed more like, Oh, I was playing basketball
- 4:55Speaker 1: and got hit in the face, Like I feel like
- 4:57Speaker 1: that would have just been better. Yeah, or playing I
- 5:00Speaker 1: don't know, right.
- 5:01Speaker 2: But then he comes up, He's like, oh, I was
- 5:03Speaker 2: throwing a football with a buddy and I got hit. Well,
- 5:06Speaker 2: you know that's a.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Lie, but that was more believable.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Well, but just doesn't have buddies, Like who the hell
- 5:12Speaker 2: is he gonna be throwing a football with?
- 5:14Speaker 1: It's okay, complaints Luke. He was playing with Luke.
- 5:20Speaker 2: So I don't know. I feel like it's an unresolved
- 5:24Speaker 2: question for me personally, and I think I'm in an
- 5:27Speaker 2: already in that and I'm okay with that.
- 5:29Speaker 1: But yeah, my one thing is Rory pissed me off
- 5:32Speaker 1: of Friday night dinner because she might freaking drop it.
- 5:35Speaker 2: She was terrible.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Just wait, just wait one hour and then deal with it.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Yeah, and I you know, Jess is not my favorite person,
- 5:43Speaker 2: but I was one hundred percent on his side in
- 5:46Speaker 2: this episode. She made it so much worse than it
- 5:49Speaker 2: needed to be.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Yeah, especially like.
- 5:51Speaker 2: She knows, don't do that crap in front of Emily,
- 5:55Speaker 2: She of all people know, is gonna latch onto that,
- 5:59Speaker 2: and it's gonna like she's never gonna let it go.
- 6:02Speaker 1: And and when she's like, oh, Grandma was cool with it,
- 6:05Speaker 1: blah blah, we know she's not. Like you know that
- 6:07Speaker 1: she was hiding it.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Right exactly exactly. She made it so much. And then
- 6:12Speaker 2: she like drags him into the other room.
- 6:14Speaker 1: And that part it was one thing to bring it
- 6:17Speaker 1: up over and over at table, So then drag him
- 6:21Speaker 1: to the other rooms talk about it, and then to
- 6:22Speaker 1: go on and then to go ask Dean. I was like, yeah,
- 6:26Speaker 1: at this point, you have to shut up right.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Well, and the whole Dean thing for me, like we're
- 6:34Speaker 2: going totally out of order. But that's okay, I gotta
- 6:36Speaker 2: I gotta say this. So the whole Dean thing for
- 6:40Speaker 2: me that spoke volumes about her relationship with Jess. Yeah,
- 6:45Speaker 2: because Jess is saying we didn't get in a fight,
- 6:48Speaker 2: we didn't get in a fight, we didn't get in
- 6:49Speaker 2: a fight, And Rory's like, you're lying, tell me the truth.
- 6:52Speaker 2: I don't believe you, and then Dean says exactly the
- 6:55Speaker 2: same phrase. Dean says, we didn't get in a fight,
- 6:58Speaker 2: and Rory's like, oh okay, like she believed right, she
- 7:03Speaker 2: wouldn't believe Jess. But when Dean says exactly the same thing,
- 7:07Speaker 2: and then She's like, oh okay, you know, carry on.
- 7:09Speaker 2: So I think that kind of that that lack of trust.
- 7:15Speaker 2: I mean, their their relationship is pretty much doomed from
- 7:18Speaker 2: the start because and she even says later in the
- 7:20Speaker 2: episode that she doesn't trust I forget how she phrased it,
- 7:25Speaker 2: but she said something about she doesn't trust Jess as
- 7:28Speaker 2: much as she trusted Dean, and she said that to Jess.
- 7:31Speaker 2: I mean, ye, that says a lot about the future
- 7:34Speaker 2: of their relationship. I think, yeah, but yeah, but I
- 7:37Speaker 2: thought it was a good episode. I really enjoyed.
- 7:39Speaker 1: It was a great episode. It was just yeah, she
- 7:42Speaker 1: she bugged me, which is weird because like, I feel
- 7:45Speaker 1: like I should have been more like on Rory's side,
- 7:47Speaker 1: but Rory was pissing me off, so I was like
- 7:50Speaker 1: I was a little bit more like, Okay, Jess is
- 7:52Speaker 1: being annoying, but like at least the like give it
- 7:55Speaker 1: a beat, like right, just wait to talk to him,
- 7:58Speaker 1: and also she I feel like she's also searching, yeah,
- 8:03Speaker 1: for a problem, right.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Well, And I feel like she's second guessing the way
- 8:10Speaker 2: that it all went down, that she basically broke up
- 8:14Speaker 2: with Dean because she checked out of that relationship, you know,
- 8:17Speaker 2: way before the dance marathon. I think she's just kind
- 8:20Speaker 2: of feeling bad about that and second guessing herself, like
- 8:24Speaker 2: did I make a mistake here? And so I think
- 8:26Speaker 2: you're right, she's kind of like like poking at it,
- 8:30Speaker 2: trying to see, wait, did I do you know? Did
- 8:33Speaker 2: I make a mistake here? Should I have stayed with Dean?
- 8:35Speaker 2: So she's almost like looking for something to be wrong
- 8:40Speaker 2: so that, you know, she can get out of it
- 8:43Speaker 2: or make a different decision. I don't know, but yeah,
- 8:46Speaker 2: I think she's definitely second guessing herself.
- 8:48Speaker 1: With that being said, I think Jess was very rude
- 8:51Speaker 1: to Emily.
- 8:54Speaker 2: I think Jess was himself.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I feel like, just how he is, he kind have
- 9:01Speaker 1: buttered it up a little bit, you know.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he could have been He definitely could
- 9:06Speaker 2: have spoken with a nicer tone of voice.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Like maybe that's it.
- 9:09Speaker 2: He was kind of snarly, yeah, but you know, he
- 9:12Speaker 2: answered her questions.
- 9:14Speaker 1: And with a she.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Wasn't gonna accept him no matter what, Like he could
- 9:19Speaker 2: have been super nice and tried to butter her up
- 9:22Speaker 2: and it wasn't going to make a difference. But yeah,
- 9:26Speaker 2: I mean Jess was Jess.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Yep.
- 9:29Speaker 2: But can I also say as crappy as Rory's behavior
- 9:33Speaker 2: was in this episode, her hair was on point. I
- 9:37Speaker 2: loved the curly hair. Yeah, I thought it was super
- 9:41Speaker 2: cute this entire episode.
- 9:42Speaker 1: Ye. Yeah, did you see the clown pillow?
- 9:55Speaker 2: I did? Yes, In right right before Alex in the
- 9:59Speaker 2: lor life, we kissing on the.
- 10:00Speaker 1: Porch, which like so awkward.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, that was a little clunky.
- 10:08Speaker 1: I know that when we watched this the first time around,
- 10:12Speaker 1: I think with Amy we were like, oh, we like
- 10:14Speaker 1: this relationship. That makeout scene maybe I don't know what
- 10:20Speaker 1: it was.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's so he was in it. So
- 10:25Speaker 2: I think we said last time he was only in
- 10:27Speaker 2: three episodes and this was I think this was the third. Yeah,
- 10:31Speaker 2: I feel like we didn't get enough of a chance
- 10:33Speaker 2: to really we don't have enough information to go on with.
- 10:37Speaker 1: He just started he just kind of like started dating
- 10:40Speaker 1: LAURALI Like it wasn't like Max Medina where we had
- 10:43Speaker 1: a build up. It's like, oh, okay, they're double dating
- 10:46Speaker 1: with going on double dates with Suki and yeah Jackson,
- 10:49Speaker 1: and like, okay, he's in the picture. I guess, all right, And.
- 10:52Speaker 2: And he comes off a little one dimensional, like he
- 10:57Speaker 2: just seems flat to me. And I don't know if
- 11:00Speaker 2: that's because we they I don't know why he was
- 11:02Speaker 2: only in three D episodes if he you know, because
- 11:05Speaker 2: I know he did Twilight, maybe he moved on to.
- 11:07Speaker 1: That and Twilight was way after this is two thousand
- 11:10Speaker 1: and three. Twilight had to be like two thousand and
- 11:12Speaker 1: seven or eight.
- 11:14Speaker 2: Yeah, you're probably right, So I'm not sure why it's
- 11:17Speaker 2: it's that arc got cut off so abruptly, but I
- 11:21Speaker 2: feel like they didn't really develop him very much, and
- 11:24Speaker 2: so it's kind of like he was just kind of boring,
- 11:27Speaker 2: Like I would have liked to have seen more of
- 11:28Speaker 2: them together to make a decision.
- 11:31Speaker 1: This might sound terrible, and I haven't seen that I
- 11:34Speaker 1: know of any of his other work. He kind of
- 11:36Speaker 1: has the same vibe in Twilight, so like like he
- 11:41Speaker 1: was he was Bella's dad in Twilight, and he was
- 11:43Speaker 1: just kind of like right, Well, they had the same feeling.
- 11:46Speaker 2: Super laid back, and I don't know if that's why
- 11:49Speaker 2: he seems flat to me, because he just isn't he
- 11:52Speaker 2: just he was.
- 11:53Speaker 1: More exciting in his first episode in my opinion.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I feel like we didn't really get enough
- 12:00Speaker 2: information to make a decision how we feel about.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Him because this was his last episode, right, Yeah, yeah.
- 12:05Speaker 2: They mentioned him again, but we don't see him again.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Yeah, that was it exactly.
- 12:11Speaker 2: They did give up. There was like a throwaway line
- 12:14Speaker 2: in one of these upcoming episodes where she's like, oh, yeah,
- 12:17Speaker 2: I don't see him that much anymore, and like they
- 12:19Speaker 2: tried to close that loop, but they didn't. Really.
- 12:21Speaker 1: That's what makes me think that he got a job,
- 12:23Speaker 1: because you wouldn't make her in such a legit relationship.
- 12:27Speaker 1: And then he's just he's a one word sentence in
- 12:30Speaker 1: another scene.
- 12:31Speaker 2: Right, I definitely get the feeling that was supposed to
- 12:34Speaker 2: have been more. Yeah, I didn't for whatever.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Reason, or maybe they just were like, eah, we're over it.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I don't know.
- 12:45Speaker 1: I had one little tiny thing, uh in the first
- 12:49Speaker 1: kitchen scene, because there was two kitchen scenes, Okay, the
- 12:53Speaker 1: first one behind Lurli in the shelf is a to
- 12:58Speaker 1: Go coffee cup, and in the second time we're in
- 13:02Speaker 1: the kitchen, that coffee cup is not there. So it
- 13:05Speaker 1: made me think it was definitely someone's like side like
- 13:10Speaker 1: sides on set side little coffee.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's funny, Like Lauren.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Yeah, you can literally see it behind her head, because
- 13:19Speaker 1: in my head I was like, I don't think she's
- 13:21Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. The house is such a mess,
- 13:23Speaker 1: who knows, but I don't think she'd be putting her
- 13:25Speaker 1: to go coffee cup in that shelf. And so when
- 13:29Speaker 1: in the next kitchen scene, whatever it was, I don't
- 13:32Speaker 1: remember where in the timeline of the of the show,
- 13:34Speaker 1: but it's not there anymore.
- 13:36Speaker 2: That's funny. I didn't even notice that one.
- 13:38Speaker 1: I noticed it the first time and then so like
- 13:40Speaker 1: like the first scene, so then I kind of was
- 13:42Speaker 1: like fixated on like is it coming back?
- 13:46Speaker 2: That's funny. One thing I have to give credit to
- 13:49Speaker 2: my husband because he noticed this one I didn't. In
- 13:52Speaker 2: the opening, when they were talking about inviting Jess over
- 13:55Speaker 2: for dinner and Emily was talking about serving lamb and
- 13:58Speaker 2: Laura Lai even makes a comment about you know, it's
- 14:01Speaker 2: gonna be every It's gonna be nice for everyone except
- 14:03Speaker 2: the lamb. But then when he when Jess actually came
- 14:06Speaker 2: over for dinner, they had primary. I got that they're
- 14:09Speaker 2: gonna have lamb.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess not. By the way, a quick update
- 14:13Speaker 1: from our producer Jackie that Billy Burke was doing episodes
- 14:16Speaker 1: of this the series twenty four during two thousand and
- 14:20Speaker 1: two two thousand and three, and he was in seven episodes.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't even know that. My husband watched that show. Religiously,
- 14:26Speaker 2: I didn't even know Billy Burke was in that.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Yeah. I never watched it, so probably overlapped. Yeah, this
- 14:33Speaker 1: episode aired February two thousand and three, so yeah, I
- 14:36Speaker 1: was filmed in twenty twenty two, which probably overlapped with
- 14:40Speaker 1: his twenty four schedule. Yeah, that's probably it.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting, I didn't even know that. Okay, well there
- 14:46Speaker 2: you go. So you learn something new every day.
- 14:48Speaker 1: YEA.
- 14:49Speaker 2: One other thing I noticed, and this is just kind
- 14:51Speaker 2: of a silly thing. So, speaking of the kitchen scene
- 14:55Speaker 2: in the first one, she makes some comment about Jim
- 14:58Speaker 2: Dunning is coming over I think to fix the garbage disposal,
- 15:03Speaker 2: and they've used that name before. Jim Dunning was in
- 15:07Speaker 2: when when Luke was on the roof of Lorelei's house
- 15:11Speaker 2: and she was trying to remember somebody.
- 15:12Speaker 1: He was supposed to fix something, right, I remember then it.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Was like the auto body guy or something, And Okay,
- 15:18Speaker 2: I don't know if that's like somebody that the writers knew.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Personally, like it may have been one of the writers,
- 15:23Speaker 1: who knows.
- 15:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I just thought it was funny that they repeated that.
- 15:26Speaker 1: He's just the repair man apparently. Yeah, at least they
- 15:29Speaker 1: were consistent with it.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, let's see. So we also had what else
- 15:38Speaker 2: happened in this episode? So it was oh, so we
- 15:42Speaker 2: also had Miss Patty's uh weird little show that that
- 15:48Speaker 2: Dean and Rory got sucked into watching, So that.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Was oh yes, how could we obflict my apologies to
- 15:55Speaker 1: the listeners? We watched two episodes this week, and I
- 15:57Speaker 1: thought that wasn't the second one, so I had a comment.
- 16:01Speaker 2: About that as well, Oh well, let's do it.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Which my comment was is, why wouldn't she tell Jess
- 16:08Speaker 1: that she saw Dean today?
- 16:10Speaker 2: See, I didn't think it was that big of a deal.
- 16:12Speaker 1: I think because of the history, she would have learned
- 16:16Speaker 1: her lesson. Yeah.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Maybe, I don't know. I don't feel like she owes
- 16:21Speaker 2: just an explanation of her day. Though, I mean it
- 16:26Speaker 2: was it wasn't anything.
- 16:29Speaker 1: It wasn't bad. It wasn't like in the moment, I
- 16:32Speaker 1: didn't think it was like like when she sat down Exdeen,
- 16:36Speaker 1: I wasn't like, oh, she needs to like rush over
- 16:38Speaker 1: to tell Jess. I didn't think that. Then when it
- 16:41Speaker 1: was published in the newspaper, I was like, hmm, she
- 16:44Speaker 1: probably would. But then wouldn't you, like, I don't know,
- 16:48Speaker 1: with your with your partner, wouldn't you have a conversation like, oh,
- 16:53Speaker 1: what did you do today? Oh? I got dragged? And
- 16:55Speaker 1: also it was so outrageous, like, oh my god, Miss
- 16:57Speaker 1: Patty dragged us into this thing for four hours and
- 17:00Speaker 1: I saw Dean by the way, Like it wouldn't have
- 17:02Speaker 1: been like I don't think it had to be, hey, Jess,
- 17:06Speaker 1: we have to have a conversation I saw Dean today.
- 17:08Speaker 1: I think it could have been like, oh, like you
- 17:09Speaker 1: know today, like miss Patty dragged me into the thing
- 17:11Speaker 1: and then talk about this yeah, and then be like
- 17:17Speaker 1: by the way I saw Dean, so just the heads up, Yeah,
- 17:20Speaker 1: I mean.
- 17:20Speaker 2: I guess I can see that. I just felt like
- 17:23Speaker 2: Jess was a little overly aggressive in being mad at
- 17:26Speaker 2: Rory that she didn't tell him right away, like it
- 17:30Speaker 2: was just and she even said, like they're friendly and
- 17:34Speaker 2: he knows they're friendly. They live in this little tiny town,
- 17:37Speaker 2: like they they're gonna run into each other. I just
- 17:40Speaker 2: feel like she had to report to him, you know, no,
- 17:44Speaker 2: I it just kind of rubbed me the wrong way.
- 17:46Speaker 1: I mean it was definitely like a what the hell,
- 17:50Speaker 1: like you can't trust each other. But then it goes
- 17:53Speaker 1: back to the thing of trust is Yeah, that's the
- 17:56Speaker 1: thing is. So he's keeping this swan I thing a
- 18:02Speaker 1: secret quote air quote secret. Yeah, and then she's kind
- 18:07Speaker 1: of keeping So it's like it goes both ways. Like, also,
- 18:10Speaker 1: why didn't you have a conversation with your Like I
- 18:13Speaker 1: just don't understand these two don't talk.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, And it gets even worse in the next episode. Yeah,
- 18:21Speaker 2: it's just very noncommunicative, and you know, Rory is frustrated
- 18:28Speaker 2: by that but won't confront it.
- 18:30Speaker 1: Yeah, like she's still trying to.
- 18:34Speaker 2: I think she's still in the back of her mind.
- 18:36Speaker 2: She's like, well, this is what I chose because I
- 18:38Speaker 2: broke up.
- 18:38Speaker 1: With Dean, so I'm stuck.
- 18:40Speaker 2: So I'm stuck but at the same time she's like, ah, this,
- 18:43Speaker 2: you know kind of sucks.
- 18:44Speaker 1: I don't know, they just she likes certain parts of Jess.
- 18:48Speaker 1: She doesn't like all of Jess.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Yes, I absolutely, that's a good way to say it,
- 18:53Speaker 2: Like they are intellectual equals. But then it kind of
- 18:57Speaker 2: disintegrates after.
- 18:58Speaker 1: That, which I think as someone who loves Jess, I
- 19:02Speaker 1: think that's why we like Jess, because we blackout moments
- 19:06Speaker 1: like these. Yeah, because at this moment I freaking hate him.
- 19:09Speaker 1: Yeah he sucks, yeah, but because he's intellectually on the
- 19:13Speaker 1: same like wavelength as her. It's that's the reason why.
- 19:17Speaker 2: Yeah, Like they had that nice scene where they were
- 19:21Speaker 2: sitting in the park and they were talking about books,
- 19:24Speaker 2: and I made a note of it because it was funny.
- 19:26Speaker 2: They were talking about a Venice Beach beat Nick, which
- 19:28Speaker 2: made me laugh because later on Jess winds up on venue,
- 19:32Speaker 2: which I thought was funny. But like, they had this
- 19:34Speaker 2: nice conversation about this book, and you know, it was
- 19:37Speaker 2: like good banter and they were, you know, on each
- 19:39Speaker 2: other's level. But then it gets offset with some of
- 19:44Speaker 2: the other shenanigans that that he especially in the next episode,
- 19:48Speaker 2: but like he yeah, you're completely right. She likes parts
- 19:52Speaker 2: of him and doesn't like other parts of him.
- 19:54Speaker 1: Yeah, and I just have.
- 19:56Speaker 2: To give Luke a shout out for knowing all of
- 19:59Speaker 2: Loralli's clube when he was like, you have the black
- 20:03Speaker 2: jacket and the red jacket, and you have three I
- 20:06Speaker 2: don't even remember everything.
- 20:07Speaker 1: But men don't remember that unless you like someone right exactly.
- 20:11Speaker 2: I thought that was a cute little moment. He like
- 20:13Speaker 2: listed off all.
- 20:15Speaker 1: The Yeah, Luca's four outfits. He just rotates them, so
- 20:18Speaker 1: I don't think he he's not paying attention to his own.
- 20:23Speaker 1: That's very cute. Though.
- 20:34Speaker 2: This was a good, solid episode. I thought we have uh, oh,
- 20:40Speaker 2: we have the scene with missus Kim seeing the band
- 20:44Speaker 2: that's right in the car. That was that was pretty fun.
- 20:47Speaker 1: I was like actually holding my breath because I totally
- 20:50Speaker 1: forgot about that scene and I was like, oh my god,
- 20:54Speaker 1: she's ruining it. She's ruining it, like it's ruined, but
- 20:58Speaker 1: the boys are so dumb that like, it was fine.
- 21:03Speaker 1: And the way that my Kim was like she has
- 21:05Speaker 1: a bit of a crush on you. At least she's observant.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Yeah, and Dave's like totally playing it cool. That was
- 21:11Speaker 2: me I did. Can I make one other call? I'm
- 21:15Speaker 2: just looking at my notes the very last scene where
- 21:20Speaker 2: they're sitting on Laureli's couch in the takeout food and
- 21:23Speaker 2: again Rory's hair looks really good. But and Rory says
- 21:27Speaker 2: that she tells Laurela she's been thinking about it, and yeah,
- 21:33Speaker 2: I wants to know before it happens. But what the
- 21:40Speaker 2: hell is that? Like that is so weird to me,
- 21:44Speaker 2: Like I can't imagine telling one of my kids tell
- 21:48Speaker 2: me before you have said you know what I mean,
- 21:50Speaker 2: Like you make sure that they know the foundations of
- 21:53Speaker 2: how to prevent disease and pregnancy and all that you
- 21:56Speaker 2: don't need to know. I don't know. I can't imagine
- 22:00Speaker 2: saying that.
- 22:01Speaker 1: But that's how I took it. But I'm also the same,
- 22:03Speaker 1: like that stuff is not a conversation I'm having or
- 22:06Speaker 1: had with my with my with my mom, you know.
- 22:10Speaker 1: But like I took it as hey, when you are
- 22:16Speaker 1: ready to do it and if you need anything, let
- 22:20Speaker 1: me in the sense of like this sounds okay, I'm
- 22:22Speaker 1: not it makes sense in my head. Is not coming
- 22:24Speaker 1: out properly, But like they have they never talked about
- 22:29Speaker 1: the birds and the bees like you know what I mean, Like, yeah,
- 22:31Speaker 1: that's what I took it as.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Right, because they already because remember the whole Chiltern dance
- 22:40Speaker 2: thing when Laurala thought that Dean and Rory spent the
- 22:43Speaker 2: night together and they didn't. But she's like, you're going
- 22:46Speaker 2: on the pill and blah blah blah. Yeah, yeah, they
- 22:48Speaker 2: have this open relationship, and you would assume that Rory
- 22:52Speaker 2: already knows about birth control and things also smart. Yeah,
- 22:56Speaker 2: she's a senior in high school by now, so I
- 22:59Speaker 2: assume that they've already had those conversations. So I didn't
- 23:02Speaker 2: think that's what Laura I was saying at all. It wasn't.
- 23:05Speaker 2: That's not how I read it as like, hey, let
- 23:09Speaker 2: me know so that we can get you on birth control,
- 23:11Speaker 2: because Rory said I'm thinking about it, Like that would
- 23:13Speaker 2: have been the time right there to be like, okay,
- 23:16Speaker 2: you know, let's.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Well, maybe that was it she was thinking about it,
- 23:19Speaker 1: but maybe it's like when you're ready to go on
- 23:21Speaker 1: birth control, let me know, we'll get you worth like
- 23:23Speaker 1: without saying it up front. It was a weird way
- 23:26Speaker 1: of wording it that could have been. But yeah, you're right,
- 23:28Speaker 1: I forgot she's a senior in high school. Senior in
- 23:30Speaker 1: high school, people are I'm sorry, people are having sex
- 23:33Speaker 1: in like ninth grade.
- 23:35Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean look at Laura. She already had
- 23:37Speaker 2: a kid by the time she was that age.
- 23:39Speaker 1: I'm saying, like in general, like she doesn't need to
- 23:43Speaker 1: learn about it is seeing everyone. I would say, like
- 23:46Speaker 1: eighty percent of the senior classes probably if not done it,
- 23:52Speaker 1: they know about it.
- 23:54Speaker 2: And I just didn't understand, like because Rory is saying
- 23:57Speaker 2: right now, she's saying, I'm thinking about it, So why
- 24:01Speaker 2: does she need to tell Loralai again when she decides to,
- 24:05Speaker 2: Like that is just weird to me.
- 24:08Speaker 1: See, I thought I think I was thinking more of
- 24:10Speaker 1: like not when she says not right before, like that, like, yeah,
- 24:14Speaker 1: what are you gonna do like making out with your boyfriend?
- 24:16Speaker 1: You're gonna call hey mom, it's about to happen. Click,
- 24:19Speaker 1: go have sex. Like that's the part where I was like,
- 24:21Speaker 1: that's weird. But now that you like, actually we break
- 24:24Speaker 1: it down, like yeah, it was weird life She's like.
- 24:26Speaker 2: No, don't say right before, but just before. But that's
- 24:29Speaker 2: what Rory's doing now, it's before and she's telling her.
- 24:32Speaker 1: Is that a way of the network like trying to
- 24:36Speaker 1: like not talk about You have to remember this is
- 24:40Speaker 1: two thousand and three. Like, I feel like shows now
- 24:44Speaker 1: there's a lot more talk about having sex in high school,
- 24:48Speaker 1: but in two thousand and three it was kind of
- 24:50Speaker 1: and it's a family show.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Well, I don't know, we've already talked in season one
- 24:53Speaker 2: about her going on the pill.
- 24:55Speaker 1: No, I know, but I'm saying about protection. So like
- 24:58Speaker 1: I wonder if like and also so if someone's watching
- 25:01Speaker 1: season one, I'm sorry, someone's watching season three, it's two
- 25:05Speaker 1: years after season one. Yeah, so maybe that maybe the
- 25:08Speaker 1: network needed some kind of like if you are having
- 25:13Speaker 1: sex at a young age, talk to your parents. I
- 25:15Speaker 1: wonder if that's what it was.
- 25:18Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I don't know.
- 25:20Speaker 1: It was a weird because sometimes networks have a certain
- 25:24Speaker 1: say in scripts when it comes I don't know, I
- 25:27Speaker 1: don't know everything for sure, but I do know that
- 25:29Speaker 1: like when it comes down to that stuff, they can
- 25:31Speaker 1: change scripts based on what they do, you know what
- 25:35Speaker 1: I'm saying, like based on like their their guidelines. Yeah,
- 25:40Speaker 1: for that show, because if it's also in like you know,
- 25:43Speaker 1: if it's a show at eight o'clock, that's going to
- 25:46Speaker 1: be different than what's airing in a show at ten o'clock.
- 25:49Speaker 2: Right, so it's true.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Yeah, but very weird. I agree with you.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just a weird interaction. Like I can't
- 25:55Speaker 2: imagine having that conversation with my kid. It would be like, hey,
- 25:58Speaker 2: you know, if you're thinking about doing this, here's what
- 26:01Speaker 2: you need to.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Know just tomorrow tomorrow afternoon.
- 26:03Speaker 2: Yeah, not be like tell me. I don't know. It
- 26:06Speaker 2: just wasnge.
- 26:09Speaker 1: I mean, I get there close, but I don't know
- 26:10Speaker 1: if we needed that that moment anyway.
- 26:16Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay.
- 26:19Speaker 1: On that note, Uh, next week we're going to be
- 26:22Speaker 1: talking about season three, episode fifteen, face Off. We'll see
