- 1:07Speaker 2: And oh, well, Susanna and I do town Meeting And
- 1:09Speaker 2: it's so fun because I get to really dissect every
- 1:12Speaker 2: single episode. As you know, Suzanne like finds every little
- 1:15Speaker 2: tiny thing in every episode, and she's rubbed off on,
- 1:19Speaker 2: rubbed off on me. I find myself being like, did
- 1:22Speaker 2: you see that? Like painting in the background and She's like, no,
- 1:25Speaker 2: I didn't. Actually, there was an episode we've recently watched
- 1:29Speaker 2: and there was a guy in the in the food
- 1:32Speaker 2: hall at Yale and he was wearing a blue backwards
- 1:36Speaker 2: hat and I thought it was you.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Oh I saw that guy. Yeah, yeah, I remember that guy. Yeah.
- 1:41Speaker 2: And I was like, now, I'm just paying attention to
- 1:43Speaker 2: all things Suzanne did. But it's fun. We're doing a
- 1:45Speaker 2: lot of things Amians, and y'all have the gazette. It's
- 1:48Speaker 2: all fun stuff.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Oh great, all right, here's the synopsis. Lane's band. What's
- 1:53Speaker 1: the name of her band? By the way, that has alien?
- 1:56Speaker 1: Is hep Alien? No? I haven't named it yet.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Oh yeah, not yet.
- 1:59Speaker 1: So they get a gig at CBGB's, the famous now
- 2:04Speaker 1: torn down replaced unfortunately CEBGEBIS in New York City. But
- 2:10Speaker 1: it doesn't come without a price. Luke and Lorlei make
- 2:13Speaker 1: up to silence the newly restored bells, not only after,
- 2:18Speaker 1: but only after Laura I realizes maybe Luke hasn't moved
- 2:21Speaker 1: completely away, as he claims that he lives in Lichfield,
- 2:25Speaker 1: but his apartment looks lived in and his bed looks
- 2:29Speaker 1: sleeped in. So she put a little Columbo and figure
- 2:33Speaker 1: in and connecting the dots. Rory confronts the laundry room Guy.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Directed by Michael Grossman, written by Sheila Lawrence and Janet Leahy. Overall,
- 2:43Speaker 1: what do you think? What do you think of this episode?
- 2:45Speaker 3: Tara?
- 2:45Speaker 2: I love this episode. I think it had some very
- 2:48Speaker 2: important parts with Lane and missus Kim for sure, And
- 2:52Speaker 2: I really was team Luke on this, I really was.
- 2:56Speaker 2: I think that Lorelei was a little harsh.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Her fear got the best of her, yeah, you know,
- 3:04Speaker 1: but yeah, he really he really stood as great. You
- 3:06Speaker 1: know what he's good at enforcing his boundaries, isn't he Yeah,
- 3:11Speaker 1: he is good at that.
- 3:12Speaker 2: He is good. Yeah, And you know, I think that
- 3:15Speaker 2: he's trying to figure this out on his own time,
- 3:18Speaker 2: and that's okay, and I think she needs to give
- 3:21Speaker 2: him a little bit of space. But I'm glad he
- 3:23Speaker 2: said what he needed to say, because you know, it
- 3:26Speaker 2: wasn't her business that maybe he had dishes in the
- 3:29Speaker 2: sink in his apartment and he slept there, like he
- 3:31Speaker 2: doesn't need to explain himself, so right. But I can
- 3:35Speaker 2: also understand because you can tell she really cares.
- 3:38Speaker 1: She cares, and it's almost like a plea coming from her.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Please chase me a little bit. You know, why aren't
- 3:46Speaker 1: you chasing me a little bit? Yeah, I'd like you
- 3:48Speaker 1: to chase me now. Yeah, she pulled his hair and
- 3:52Speaker 1: like and then she runs away. J Yeah, all right.
- 3:56Speaker 1: So Stan, old Stan has passed away. The old opening
- 4:00Speaker 1: is the church and there's a memorial service for Stan.
- 4:04Speaker 1: And one of his dying wishes was to get those
- 4:07Speaker 1: church bells ringing again. Uh so he left money to
- 4:11Speaker 1: repair them in his will. So they start ringing and
- 4:14Speaker 1: it annoys the heck out of the entire.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Town, which is really funny.
- 4:18Speaker 1: It was funny, Lorla I is it Luke? Since she's
- 4:22Speaker 1: surprised to learn that he has moved in with Nicole
- 4:24Speaker 1: and got an apartment in Lichfield three weeks ago in
- 4:28Speaker 1: another county, and she gets angry, you know, but he
- 4:32Speaker 1: didn't share that information. Doesn't feel like they have a
- 4:35Speaker 1: close friendship anymore. She walks out, and then Luke comes
- 4:38Speaker 1: to her house and is shoveling her snow, which he does,
- 4:43Speaker 1: you know, automatically, right, But she comes out and she
- 4:48Speaker 1: doesn't confront him. She just she's coming out to thank
- 4:51Speaker 1: him and say hello and all this. But he's you know,
- 4:54Speaker 1: he's he's loaded and ready to go, and he unleashes
- 4:58Speaker 1: yea and enforced his boundaries.
- 5:00Speaker 2: He's been waiting for that moment.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Right right, yeah, man, And Laurela is starving, so she
- 5:08Speaker 1: reluctantly walks to Luke's after that fight or after his
- 5:13Speaker 1: boundary enforcement speech, and she breaks the ice by saying,
- 5:17Speaker 1: you want to break.
- 5:18Speaker 3: The bells and he's like, oh yeah.
- 5:21Speaker 1: So they go upstairs there in cahoots now, and it's
- 5:24Speaker 1: kind of a brilliant ploy on her part, right yeah,
- 5:27Speaker 1: they don't really need to discuss what went down now.
- 5:31Speaker 1: She's just like she trumps all that with like this,
- 5:33Speaker 1: let's just go do this thing. And that's when she
- 5:38Speaker 1: sees his apartment because he used to go up and
- 5:40Speaker 1: get a jacket and get his toolbox to uh to
- 5:45Speaker 1: to disconnect the bells, and she sees all the evidence
- 5:48Speaker 1: that maybe he didn't move out. All right. Now they're
- 5:52Speaker 1: in the church, they're breaking the bells, trying to break
- 5:55Speaker 1: the bells. She asks about living with Nicole again, she relentless, right, yeah,
- 6:03Speaker 1: back down.
- 6:04Speaker 3: She went back.
- 6:06Speaker 1: And then he Luke presses her why she thinks so
- 6:08Speaker 1: important to her and then she says, that's the moment.
- 6:12Speaker 1: She says, because I care, Right, it's in the church.
- 6:16Speaker 1: She cares they're there to vandalize.
- 6:18Speaker 2: The church, but she cares about Luke.
- 6:23Speaker 1: She is about to admit her feelings when the pastor
- 6:27Speaker 1: walks in. Right, this is the moment, Tara, this is
- 6:31Speaker 1: the moment that Laurelai is like. And then I started thinking, man,
- 6:34Speaker 1: this is coming on hard and fast and kind of
- 6:36Speaker 1: all out of nowhere, out of the blue. And then
- 6:39Speaker 1: I realized this is season four and something momentous is
- 6:45Speaker 1: in the offing, which I believe is called the first kiss,
- 6:48Speaker 1: and I don't know what it's common, but it's coming
- 6:50Speaker 1: this season and it's coming in the next couple episodes.
- 6:54Speaker 1: So I think, oh, okay, all right, So they're ramping
- 6:56Speaker 1: it up, all right, So we're getting little clues here,
- 6:58Speaker 1: build up of her feeling in his feelings. The moment
- 7:02Speaker 1: almost happened, Terr. You think something would have happened if
- 7:05Speaker 1: he didn't walk in, she would have said something.
- 7:07Speaker 2: I feel like it would have come up eventually. I
- 7:09Speaker 2: think I would have been lingering there. Lorelei and Luke
- 7:12Speaker 2: are interesting, where specifically Laurai she doesn't want confrontation usually,
- 7:15Speaker 2: so I think it's usually the other person who brings
- 7:18Speaker 2: it up. And then yeah, I don't know, I'm I
- 7:23Speaker 2: don't know.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Yeah, she's smacked dab in the middle of dating.
- 7:28Speaker 2: That's right.
- 7:28Speaker 1: I forgot these styles, and I forgot too until I
- 7:31Speaker 1: just read this.
- 7:32Speaker 2: I forgot until I was reading our notes and Jackie
- 7:35Speaker 2: made and I was like, wait a minute.
- 7:36Speaker 1: So this is this is doubly significant that she seems
- 7:41Speaker 1: to be enamored with Jason and but what is she
- 7:45Speaker 1: doing in the church with Luke? Huh? But I tell
- 7:48Speaker 1: you this woman's got options, don't you. Yeah, she's not alone, man,
- 7:56Speaker 1: which is why Luke needs to doing force his boundaries,
- 7:58Speaker 1: because man, he don't want to get a caught up
- 8:00Speaker 1: in that or.
- 8:01Speaker 3: Else he does he does. Uh. Do you think she's
- 8:04Speaker 3: being a little hypocritical here?
- 8:05Speaker 1: Oh?
- 8:06Speaker 3: Yes?
- 8:07Speaker 1: Is this just an overreaction to Luke's quite serious love life?
- 8:12Speaker 3: Now?
- 8:13Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit of both, because when
- 8:15Speaker 2: she's dating someone, she doesn't take Luke's feelings into consideration,
- 8:21Speaker 2: and so it is hypocritical in that way. But also
- 8:23Speaker 2: she is overreacting because Luke and Nicole got married. It's
- 8:27Speaker 2: not like they just went on two dates. Now it's
- 8:29Speaker 2: like they're trying to get a divorce. They're trying to
- 8:31Speaker 2: figure it out. And Luke is so nice that he
- 8:35Speaker 2: you know, he when Nicole comes back and she's like,
- 8:37Speaker 2: I want to figure it out, he's also like, Okay,
- 8:39Speaker 2: maybe I'll give it a shot. Because Laurelai is doing
- 8:41Speaker 2: her own thing.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Laurel I is dating, she is sleeping with another guy.
- 8:48Speaker 1: She is in a church with functioning bells, and she
- 8:52Speaker 1: is trying to break up a marriage. I mean, that's
- 8:57Speaker 1: just reality.
- 8:58Speaker 2: Well is she trying to break up a marriage or
- 9:00Speaker 2: the marriage already broken?
- 9:02Speaker 1: I don't know. But he's married. That's a married guy.
- 9:07Speaker 2: True on paper, he is married. Yes, ship has.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Sailed, ship is gone. He left the harbor. Interesting. It's
- 9:18Speaker 1: an interesting situation that they she finds herself in. Yeah, boy,
- 9:23Speaker 1: but fun to watch, isn't it all? Right? Lane?
- 9:27Speaker 2: Yes?
- 9:29Speaker 1: Now I've been to CBGB's. I was at CBGB's in
- 9:33Speaker 1: the seventies. Oh wow, I know CBGB's. I know the
- 9:37Speaker 1: bottom line, I know all those places. I know Maxis
- 9:40Speaker 1: Kansas City.
- 9:42Speaker 2: Oh cool.
- 9:43Speaker 1: And CBGB's is no more.
- 9:46Speaker 2: When did it close?
- 9:46Speaker 4: Do we know?
- 9:48Speaker 1: I don't know. Ten years ago, five years ago, but
- 9:51Speaker 1: it's gone.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Isn't it sad to see places oh close in two
- 9:53Speaker 2: thousand and six.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Two thousand and six, there you go, twenty years ago.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy to sea places you grew up going
- 10:00Speaker 2: or been in the past like no longer exist. Because
- 10:02Speaker 2: I'm dealing with that, Like just places like nearby my
- 10:04Speaker 2: house where I'm like, man, I used to there's a
- 10:06Speaker 2: movie theater by it by me that's got demolished. I'm like,
- 10:10Speaker 2: I used to go there as a kid, you know.
- 10:12Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's heavy. It's heavy stuff, man, Yeah, yeah,
- 10:16Speaker 1: you would You would have thought that the city would
- 10:19Speaker 1: have labeled it in a store sor right, right. I
- 10:26Speaker 1: guess they don't think punk rock is historic for some reason.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Could have been like a museum or something historical.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Society steps in and like starts rock punk rocking out, yeah,
- 10:36Speaker 1: protecting the place. Now I just think it's condos, Oh really,
- 10:39Speaker 1: Or it's a different kind of store. Yeah yeah, they
- 10:41Speaker 1: just somebody bought it and then that's that.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Why do they always turn into condos everything?
- 10:47Speaker 1: Because that's for a real estate developer, that's the best
- 10:50Speaker 1: bang for the buck, and for the city, it's the
- 10:52Speaker 1: best bang for the buck with property taxes and small spaces,
- 10:55Speaker 1: get ten twenty different separate property taxes and got it.
- 11:00Speaker 1: It's yeah for the it's great.
- 11:02Speaker 3: For the developers in the city.
- 11:03Speaker 1: All right, So they got Lane's got to figure out
- 11:06Speaker 1: how to get by old missus Kim that battle ax
- 11:10Speaker 1: and laying the band await and go on at CBGB's.
- 11:13Speaker 1: But then this guy comes backstage and says, you've been bumped.
- 11:18Speaker 1: There's nobody out there. I sent everybody, and you're not playing.
- 11:24Speaker 1: And Zach Zach is being particularly annoying. He doesn't like Gil.
- 11:30Speaker 1: He's he's just it's like, I think the guy's going
- 11:33Speaker 1: to leave the band. Gil Why oh Gil?
- 11:36Speaker 3: Yeah, Gil.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Be super positive. Yeah, you know he's wearing the appropriate
- 11:44Speaker 1: gas station Vibe shirts as a rocker and uh yeah yeah.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Gil is coming off well. Lane's coming off very well.
- 11:56Speaker 2: But Zach, Yeah, it was a little annoying this episode.
- 12:00Speaker 2: I was like, all right, let's pump pump the brakes
- 12:02Speaker 2: a little bit.
- 12:03Speaker 1: Right, right, So so she's out. Lane's out. She hasn't
- 12:09Speaker 1: told her mom where she is.
- 12:10Speaker 3: She just left.
- 12:12Speaker 1: We find out.
- 12:12Speaker 2: Didn't it feel sudden, Like I feel like all of
- 12:15Speaker 2: this happening in one episode felt like, Wow, we got
- 12:17Speaker 2: a lot of Lane just rebelling in one episode.
- 12:22Speaker 1: But I yeah, I liked that storytelling. I like the
- 12:25Speaker 1: pace of that because we we kind of don't need
- 12:28Speaker 1: to see we already have seen.
- 12:30Speaker 2: Yeah, we're four seasons into it.
- 12:31Speaker 1: We're four seasons in. We know the drill with those two,
- 12:35Speaker 1: we know the dance, so there's no reason to see
- 12:38Speaker 1: it again. Yeah, called a timer lips, and I thought
- 12:41Speaker 1: it was used very well in this situation because I
- 12:45Speaker 1: liked being there. Yeah, it's good to be a little
- 12:48Speaker 1: bit behind the story, you know, where you feel like
- 12:51Speaker 1: you have to catch up. I think that's good. Keeps
- 12:53Speaker 1: it moving, m all right. So you know, the gig's
- 12:57Speaker 1: canceled and Lane has no work. She's not gonna home.
- 13:01Speaker 1: So she shows up at Yale, at Rory's dorm.
- 13:03Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out what time it was like,
- 13:05Speaker 2: was it like middle of the night.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Well they said that you know, it was probably two am, Yeah,
- 13:10Speaker 1: two thirty because their gig was at one that's right. Okay, Yeah,
- 13:15Speaker 1: so Rory calls her mom, wakes her up, says Lane
- 13:21Speaker 1: Steer and she hasn't call her mom.
- 13:22Speaker 2: What do we do.
- 13:23Speaker 3: What do I do?
- 13:23Speaker 1: Rory wants to call missus Kim, so Laura I calls
- 13:27Speaker 1: missus Kim, lets her know, and then and then we
- 13:33Speaker 1: find missus Kim outside of Luke's. Yeah, very early in
- 13:40Speaker 1: the morning.
- 13:41Speaker 3: Why was she going to.
- 13:43Speaker 2: I so I was thinking about this because I was
- 13:46Speaker 2: thinking she was going to get Lane and then stopped
- 13:50Speaker 2: at Luke's. That was just my assumption. I'm probably wrong.
- 13:54Speaker 2: I don't know. I thought she was going to get her,
- 13:56Speaker 2: but she was.
- 13:57Speaker 1: She was fine, like five am. Luke was getting the
- 14:00Speaker 1: let bread delivery and take it in the dinner still dark.
- 14:02Speaker 2: I don't know. I Also, it was such a telling
- 14:06Speaker 2: moment of when Luke's like Lane already told me she's
- 14:09Speaker 2: not coming. She's such a good kid.
- 14:11Speaker 1: That's why the scene was there.
- 14:13Speaker 2: That's why the scene was there. Yeah, but it was
- 14:15Speaker 2: just so like that was such.
- 14:16Speaker 1: A contacted me. She contacted Laurala. She didn't contact you. Yeah,
- 14:23Speaker 1: basically that was the purse. But she just ends up
- 14:25Speaker 1: it did. She stopped in the middle of the street,
- 14:29Speaker 1: she got out of the car and she called after Luke.
- 14:32Speaker 1: H and what did she ask him? Where Lane was?
- 14:35Speaker 1: But she already she already knew, right.
- 14:36Speaker 2: She already knew. She just said that Lane's not going
- 14:39Speaker 2: to be coming to work tomorrow.
- 14:42Speaker 1: That's the reason.
- 14:43Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean she could have just been going
- 14:45Speaker 2: on like a like a drive, couldn't sleep and trying
- 14:49Speaker 2: to figure out why her daughter did this, you know.
- 14:53Speaker 1: But I thought she was dry. She was heading to
- 14:55Speaker 1: g Gale.
- 14:56Speaker 2: That's what I assumed too. I mean, I think it's
- 14:58Speaker 2: I think it's up for interpretation, right, Yeah.
- 15:01Speaker 1: So anyway, yeah, she's on her way to yell. She
- 15:05Speaker 1: So the next day, Lane thanks Laurya for Rory for
- 15:09Speaker 1: letting her crash at her dorms. She'd admit she doesn't
- 15:11Speaker 1: think she has she has a good life. Lane doesn't
- 15:15Speaker 1: think and wants to have more of a spine when
- 15:19Speaker 1: it comes to her mom. So now we're setting up
- 15:21Speaker 1: for this big confrontation. And now missus Kim is in
- 15:24Speaker 1: Lane's room and she finds all of her secret hiding
- 15:28Speaker 1: spots and all of her CDs and the floor and
- 15:31Speaker 1: everything's out. And then Lane comes in apologizes. Missus Kim
- 15:39Speaker 1: blames herself. Lane tries to negotiate with her about how
- 15:43Speaker 1: she wants to live her life inside Missus Kim's house
- 15:47Speaker 1: and you know, in her house too, But her mother says, predictably,
- 15:53Speaker 1: you may move out and live like that somewhere else
- 15:56Speaker 1: and walks out of the room. Yeah, and then shows
- 16:00Speaker 1: up but Rory's dorm.
- 16:03Speaker 3: Room with a suitcase.
- 16:04Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what.
- 16:05Speaker 3: I think, You're right.
- 16:06Speaker 1: This all happened so quickly, but that's how it is
- 16:08Speaker 1: in life, right, Yeah.
- 16:10Speaker 2: I mean she can't, she can't change the decisions she's made.
- 16:14Speaker 2: She made them, she left, she stayed out, Like what
- 16:18Speaker 2: else was it, you know? And then I think it
- 16:20Speaker 2: was just to take it back a little bit. You
- 16:23Speaker 2: know the scene when Rory came to get a new book,
- 16:26Speaker 2: but it was really just a CD in the book,
- 16:29Speaker 2: and then missus Kim was like looking at the book.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Do you think missus Kim this whole time knew like
- 16:33Speaker 2: that everything was in the floorboards and all that, Like,
- 16:36Speaker 2: do you think she knew that Lane was hiding the stuff?
- 16:39Speaker 1: I think it was. Yeah. I kind of felt the
- 16:41Speaker 1: same way when she when Missus Kim looked at the book,
- 16:44Speaker 1: because I think thought she saw that the book was
- 16:46Speaker 1: a different color than the jacket, so it wasn't it
- 16:49Speaker 1: wasn't fooling her but she wasn't going to say anything
- 16:52Speaker 1: right then and there.
- 16:53Speaker 2: Yeah, God, how do you feel about this?
- 16:56Speaker 1: Like you just kicked out your own child, Like you're gone,
- 16:59Speaker 1: it's like my way or the highway.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I honestly not gonna lie. I teared up a
- 17:03Speaker 2: little bit. I thought it was an emotional scene. But
- 17:06Speaker 2: I also I think missus Kim had these rules and
- 17:11Speaker 2: Lane followed them even though they were really strict. I
- 17:16Speaker 2: don't know. I go back and forth because, like I
- 17:18Speaker 2: understand like following your parents' rules if you live under
- 17:21Speaker 2: their roof, Like I totally respect that, but I do
- 17:24Speaker 2: think some stuff was taken too far over the years
- 17:27Speaker 2: of like I don't know, just little things that we've seen.
- 17:32Speaker 2: But I think she's just trying to be a protective mom.
- 17:34Speaker 2: So it's like hard. I'm I go back and forth.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Well, people grow up, they mature.
- 17:41Speaker 2: But she is. She is old enough to move out,
- 17:44Speaker 2: so I think that's also probably the reason why missus
- 17:47Speaker 2: Kim said it as long as she's in high school anymore,
- 17:50Speaker 2: she's in community college, like she that's kind of the
- 17:53Speaker 2: age eight. She's probably eighteen when kids move out.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Very powerful scene. I'm sure a lot of viewers have
- 18:02Speaker 1: been in that situation and could relate. Well, this is
- 18:06Speaker 1: going to be a turning point for her, for Lane,
- 18:09Speaker 1: and you know she can try to suggest a way
- 18:13Speaker 1: to make both her and her mom happy. So I
- 18:18Speaker 1: mean I can relate actually to both sides of this. Yeah,
- 18:23Speaker 1: that's the beauty in the writing, right, you can. You
- 18:25Speaker 1: can see both signs, all right. So here we have
- 18:38Speaker 1: Rory at Yale, Yes, and she is signing up for
- 18:44Speaker 1: and you know, let's talk about this confrontation with the
- 18:49Speaker 1: he doesn't have a name, but the laundry room guy
- 18:51Speaker 1: that she asked out for coffee who said no, is
- 18:55Speaker 1: making her life a living hell. You so you would think, yeah,
- 19:02Speaker 1: and he's telling apparently, according to Rory, he's telling that
- 19:07Speaker 1: story to everybody that will listen in a mocking.
- 19:11Speaker 2: Tone and basically calling her a stalker.
- 19:13Speaker 1: Correct. Yeah, What she doesn't get is that he's not
- 19:18Speaker 1: talking about her, right, It was a different person who is.
- 19:23Speaker 3: Actually sort of a borderline stalker.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Different situation. Yeah, but for me, it feels like this
- 19:30Speaker 1: is setting up a potential romance between these two. What
- 19:33Speaker 1: are your thoughts?
- 19:34Speaker 2: I always Susan and I talk about this, but I
- 19:38Speaker 2: I like that Rory is single in this first season.
- 19:41Speaker 2: In this season her first year of college. But I
- 19:44Speaker 2: want to see her dating more so, Like I would
- 19:47Speaker 2: have liked at the end of that confrontation in the
- 19:49Speaker 2: dining hall for him to like ask her out or something.
- 19:52Speaker 2: But I feel like that keeps happening, where like she
- 19:56Speaker 2: tries to say something and then it goes nowhere, like
- 19:58Speaker 2: you know, the guy who was sitting under her tree
- 20:00Speaker 2: like things like that, Like it just went nowhere.
- 20:03Speaker 3: Right, you know, nowhere.
- 20:05Speaker 2: Yeah. I just wanted to see more, Like I would
- 20:08Speaker 2: have liked to see it developed, maybe at least go
- 20:09Speaker 2: out on one date.
- 20:11Speaker 1: But I like seeing her, you know, with her thick
- 20:16Speaker 1: skin and her steely spine confronting him and saying paulitely
- 20:22Speaker 1: but with an edge like knock it.
- 20:23Speaker 2: Off, yeah, fella, yeah, or else there's.
- 20:26Speaker 1: Going to be trouble in River City and you know
- 20:29Speaker 1: it's like, don't mess with me, guy. Yeah. I like
- 20:32Speaker 1: that in Rory.
- 20:33Speaker 2: I actually like the scene in the in the classroom
- 20:35Speaker 2: as well, when she's like debating with him. I kind
- 20:37Speaker 2: of like I like that too.
- 20:39Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, she's not to be trifled with. No, you know,
- 20:43Speaker 1: she's she's changing, she's getting really you know, she's coming
- 20:46Speaker 1: into her own yeah, you know, embracing her power.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it.
- 20:51Speaker 1: I love seeing it, you know, I I really enjoy
- 20:54Speaker 1: I just really so much more enjoy the Yale scenes
- 20:57Speaker 1: because I actually visited Yale recently. Yeah, yeah, we were up,
- 21:02Speaker 1: you know. I took the band out on a tour
- 21:04Speaker 1: and New Haven. We played a place called Toad's Place,
- 21:07Speaker 1: which is right across the street from the Sterling Library,
- 21:11Speaker 1: the famous Sterling Library, and it's like right there, towering
- 21:15Speaker 1: over that street the other side of the street, and
- 21:18Speaker 1: Yale just you know, dominates that entire small town of
- 21:22Speaker 1: New Haven. Uh. And so I went into Sterling. We
- 21:26Speaker 1: were there for a couple of days, and so I
- 21:28Speaker 1: went into Sterling Library one day and took a little tour.
- 21:32Speaker 1: I didn't know you could just walk in and you
- 21:34Speaker 1: can just walk in.
- 21:36Speaker 2: That's so cool.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh so you know then the then, of course,
- 21:41Speaker 1: you know, the it was finals week, right, so the
- 21:45Speaker 1: students were tons of students in there just reading. Everything
- 21:49Speaker 1: was super quiet. You could feel the energy, the the
- 21:53Speaker 1: the the the studying energy of the of these kids
- 21:58Speaker 1: and it was just great. And then so so got
- 22:02Speaker 1: recognized and then took a selfie here and there. I
- 22:06Speaker 1: was just like, you know, mine in my own business.
- 22:10Speaker 1: But then it started. Then it started becoming like a
- 22:13Speaker 1: sort of a mini convention where you like, teams of
- 22:16Speaker 1: people were taking study breaks into you know.
- 22:19Speaker 2: I met you. So many of those kids watch gil
- 22:21Speaker 2: girls who they do.
- 22:22Speaker 1: They grew up with it, they love it.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like their their little dream of going
- 22:27Speaker 2: to Yell like Rory did. I'm sure.
- 22:29Speaker 1: I got to tell you something. These were the greatest kids,
- 22:31Speaker 1: and they're all so great and they want to help
- 22:34Speaker 1: the world. And there's you know, they're studying economics, they're
- 22:37Speaker 1: studying political science, engineering. I mean, it just just really
- 22:43Speaker 1: great kids. And they were all so so enthusiastic and
- 22:48Speaker 1: told me about their experiences discovering the show and watching
- 22:51Speaker 1: the show and and a lot of them said it's
- 22:53Speaker 1: the reason we picked Yelle because Rory did.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Oh that's so cool.
- 22:57Speaker 1: Yeah, so I had. And then I went back the
- 23:00Speaker 1: second day because I wanted to see more of the campus.
- 23:02Speaker 2: And then it was a mini convention again, but but.
- 23:05Speaker 1: I was outside a lot, but still you know, turned
- 23:07Speaker 1: into another mini convention, and they took me on tours.
- 23:11Speaker 1: They they took me. There was a couple of couple
- 23:14Speaker 1: of girls took me to the secret part of the
- 23:18Speaker 1: library that you can only get in if you have
- 23:19Speaker 1: a pass right. It's it's it's it's the inner bowels
- 23:23Speaker 1: of it, the Egyptian Room and places like that, the
- 23:25Speaker 1: Philosophy Room, all the stuff.
- 23:27Speaker 3: And it was just fascinating.
- 23:29Speaker 1: It was fascinating to be back there and to have
- 23:32Speaker 1: that kind of an access.
- 23:33Speaker 2: So, I mean, I haven't been to a lot inside
- 23:35Speaker 2: a library and since I was in college.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Oh it's beautiful. Yeah, Oh, it's just staggering. Miss it.
- 23:42Speaker 1: It's like a museum itself. It's got to old books.
- 23:46Speaker 4: Oh god.
- 23:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 23:47Speaker 1: I think I gained maybe five six IQ points just
- 23:52Speaker 1: for a couple of hours. Yeah, but then I lost
- 23:56Speaker 1: them pretty quickly when I.
- 23:58Speaker 2: When I when I got back on the point.
- 24:03Speaker 1: But such great kids. It was so so moving to
- 24:07Speaker 1: just be around those but be around that kind of
- 24:10Speaker 1: energy you know at these Yeah, and there's you know,
- 24:13Speaker 1: there's several universities like this. These kids are so enthusiastic,
- 24:18Speaker 1: just so great, just so great. I can't wait to
- 24:20Speaker 1: go back. I want I should go.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Back every year.
- 24:23Speaker 2: Yeah, finals week.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Yeah, just why not, right, anyway, but a lot of
- 24:30Speaker 1: this scenery in this episode reminded me of that library,
- 24:35Speaker 1: like the interiors of the library when they're sitting on
- 24:37Speaker 1: those uh those plush chairs as sort of low leather chairs.
- 24:43Speaker 1: It kind of that's kind of what it looked like
- 24:46Speaker 1: on the first floor. So anyway, just a great experience
- 24:51Speaker 1: all the way. Yeah, all right, so laundry room guy,
- 25:03Speaker 1: what do you think potential there getting Let's let's get
- 25:06Speaker 1: back to the serious stuff here. I mean, what are
- 25:08Speaker 1: you saying?
- 25:09Speaker 2: He kind of seemed like a jerk. I'm not gonna lie.
- 25:13Speaker 1: He did. He came off like an entitled jerk.
- 25:15Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't know, not Rory's type. I would
- 25:18Speaker 2: have liked to see her maybe go on one day
- 25:20Speaker 2: and just go terribly and then she moves on.
- 25:22Speaker 1: But yeah, but that's the kind of thing where you know,
- 25:26Speaker 1: it can be a meeting of the minds. There's a
- 25:28Speaker 1: click that happens. It's going really badly and what a
- 25:32Speaker 1: jerk and brings out a bad side of her and
- 25:34Speaker 1: aggressive side of her. But then but then he tells
- 25:36Speaker 1: a little sub story and she starts to sympathize or
- 25:40Speaker 1: you know, who knows.
- 25:40Speaker 2: I like, how at the end, she was like, because
- 25:42Speaker 2: people were turning around when she's confronting him and she's like,
- 25:45Speaker 2: please don't tell anyone this. I thought that was actually
- 25:46Speaker 2: really funny. Half the half the table behind you totally
- 25:50Speaker 2: heard the whole thing right.
- 25:52Speaker 1: Right right overall. What did you think of the episode?
- 25:54Speaker 2: I loved it. I thought it was a great episode
- 25:56Speaker 2: all around. You got Rory in school, you got Luke
- 25:59Speaker 2: and Laurel I. I think it was great. We were
- 26:02Speaker 2: just missaying Emily and Richard, but I feel like that's okay.
- 26:06Speaker 1: You know, I didn't really miss them for this episode.
- 26:10Speaker 2: They were not needed, Like, I think this stood alone great.
- 26:13Speaker 2: I just like seeing them You're and there bantering.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Very very strong episode, you know, because you've got You've
- 26:21Speaker 1: got Rory, Laurel, I, Luke Lane all dealing with stuff. Right,
- 26:27Speaker 1: it wasn't so spread out. I mean it was four
- 26:31Speaker 1: characters who were really like dealing with it. You know,
- 26:35Speaker 1: life was coming out all of them hard. So it
- 26:38Speaker 1: was Yeah, it was a great episode.
- 26:40Speaker 2: And to think that this air This aired in January,
- 26:42Speaker 2: so this was like the season was back from a
- 26:45Speaker 2: holiday break, came full force. They didn't disappoint all right, Well.
