- 7:15Speaker 3: people that get to be there in person.
- 7:18Speaker 1: We are going to recap and.
- 7:22Speaker 3: It was a doozy. This episode's a doozy.
- 7:27Speaker 1: It certainly was.
- 7:28Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I have thoughts, you know, we.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Have some thoughts on this. I think let's uh, let's
- 7:37Speaker 1: synopsize with the newly annointed great one. Here Susanne French mispopularity.
- 7:45Speaker 1: We like to call it off. You know, she can't
- 7:48Speaker 1: she can't even she can't even walk to lunch without
- 7:51Speaker 1: getting stopped a million times for selfies and all kinds
- 7:54Speaker 1: of things.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Suzanne, have you been have you been recognized? No, it'll
- 8:05Speaker 3: be any.
- 8:05Speaker 4: Day now, don't I have not, But you know I've
- 8:07Speaker 4: got I'm just I'm ready anytime, you know, I've always
- 8:10Speaker 4: got my mascara on.
- 8:11Speaker 3: So yes, we learned about the importance of mascarett of
- 8:14Speaker 3: Suzanne when we had to get up at four in
- 8:16Speaker 3: the morning.
- 8:18Speaker 4: All right, this is season six, episode twelve. Just like
- 8:22Speaker 4: Gwen and Gavin by the aired on January seventeenth, two
- 8:26Speaker 4: thousand and six. Logan keeps trying to reconcile with Rory,
- 8:30Speaker 4: but she keeps brushing him off until he talks to
- 8:32Speaker 4: the one person who can change Rory's mind. The Winter
- 8:36Speaker 4: Carnival takes over stars Hollow, with Kirk taking the reins,
- 8:39Speaker 4: and Loralai finds out about April, but from April herself
- 8:43Speaker 4: and not Luke.
- 8:46Speaker 3: The title is great good because at the time it
- 8:52Speaker 3: was so accurate. Unfortunately, now although the title is still
- 8:58Speaker 3: accurate in the sense that this did happen to Gwen
- 9:01Speaker 3: and Gavin, they are no longer married and she is
- 9:05Speaker 3: married to Blake Shelton and all they're all still quite famous,
- 9:10Speaker 3: so that it's a bit jarring. I don't know if
- 9:12Speaker 3: anyone else had that, because there's a whole thing and
- 9:15Speaker 3: you're just.
- 9:15Speaker 1: Like mm hmmm.
- 9:19Speaker 4: It's one of those things that was so topical at
- 9:22Speaker 4: the time that it didn't really stand up over the years, right, Right.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Were they trying to say? I thought they were kind
- 9:31Speaker 1: of denigrating their singing ability a little bit.
- 9:36Speaker 3: A little bit they did.
- 9:37Speaker 1: But but the thing is is Gwen's I mean, you know,
- 9:40Speaker 1: go ahead take your shots at Gavin Rossdale, but you know,
- 9:44Speaker 1: Gwen Stefan, you can sing her tail.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:48Speaker 1: I mean she's a very very talented and unique vocalist
- 9:51Speaker 1: with a very unique style. I mean, just go listen
- 9:54Speaker 1: to her that debut single that that put her on
- 9:57Speaker 1: the map.
- 9:59Speaker 3: Yeah, they kind of I mean, what a song they
- 10:02Speaker 3: gave him a little bit of a dig.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Yeah, why, I don't know that Fani, she's like the
- 10:08Speaker 1: coolest person on earth with a golden throat.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Well, I don't think I really think Gavin Rossteel is
- 10:13Speaker 3: like a bad singer.
- 10:13Speaker 1: He's like a no, no, no, I'm not saying bad. But
- 10:16Speaker 1: if you're going to rag somebody, rag on somebody in
- 10:18Speaker 1: that relationship, it's going to be him.
- 10:20Speaker 3: And there's so many more singers in the world. I mean,
- 10:22Speaker 3: I thought the point was well taken and that they
- 10:24Speaker 3: talked about that there was a child that Gavin didn't
- 10:27Speaker 3: know about, right, It was just sort of maybe like
- 10:31Speaker 3: an added dig to just like rip on him a
- 10:34Speaker 3: little bit. But whatever, it's a little shade.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Shade shade at Gwen Stefani. I don't know, she's a badass.
- 10:43Speaker 3: I'd agree she's gone on to have like even a
- 10:46Speaker 3: bigger career than she did then.
- 10:48Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, you sit there and go to
- 10:50Speaker 1: see her in concerts, see that band, you'd be blown away.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Well, she's also an epic performer, so whether you like
- 10:56Speaker 3: her voice or not, no, she is a awesome on stage,
- 11:01Speaker 3: like she really is.
- 11:03Speaker 1: She has what is known that rare quality in the
- 11:06Speaker 1: Great Ones is she has emotional power in her voice
- 11:11Speaker 1: when she does her thing. It's it's just like, whoa
- 11:16Speaker 1: I like.
- 11:17Speaker 3: I like Blake Shelton too.
- 11:19Speaker 1: There you go. I mean these people stars for a reason. Couple, yeah, right,
- 11:23Speaker 1: for a reason? Right?
- 11:25Speaker 3: So yeah, well, let us continue.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Let's dip our lines, hooks and sinkers and baited baited
- 11:35Speaker 1: hooks into the water to see what we catch on
- 11:37Speaker 1: this episode, fellow fisher people, So right out the gate
- 11:43Speaker 1: being influenced by Nova Scotia. I'm still here, by the way.
- 11:46Speaker 3: Those Oh yeah, I know, I feel like you're never
- 11:49Speaker 3: leaving Canada.
- 11:49Speaker 1: No, no, we got it's about eight more days. Oh
- 11:52Speaker 1: my gosh, we're counting down the days.
- 11:55Speaker 3: It's well, I am, it's very lengthy. Anyway, at least
- 11:59Speaker 3: you'll be home in Jenny, January seventeenth.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Get your tickets now, I'll try to make it for
- 12:04Speaker 1: the event.
- 12:05Speaker 3: Okay. So the immediately the bells were ringing and I
- 12:09Speaker 3: had actually forgotten this. This open. So you see paul, Anka,
- 12:13Speaker 3: Luke and Lorelar in the bed and all of a
- 12:15Speaker 3: sudden three twelve am.
- 12:17Speaker 1: But it didn't look like it was dark out the window.
- 12:19Speaker 1: It looked light.
- 12:20Speaker 3: It looked like it was really I thought it looked
- 12:21Speaker 3: dark to me.
- 12:22Speaker 1: No, there was a little corner of a window behind
- 12:25Speaker 1: Luke and it was lit.
- 12:27Speaker 3: Probably was accidentally lit. Maybe that was supposed to be
- 12:30Speaker 3: the moonlight. Was that moonlight?
- 12:31Speaker 1: Moonlight? Oh what?
- 12:36Speaker 3: Obviously maybe shot Maybe you shot this during the day
- 12:40Speaker 3: and they tried hard to make it dark, and.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Well you just black. You just blacked the darn thing out. No,
- 12:45Speaker 1: I don't know. Good, what do I know about lighting?
- 12:49Speaker 1: I mean, look at me. I mean, you guys look great.
- 12:51Speaker 1: I look terrible.
- 12:54Speaker 3: First of all, you don't. It's like I've stopped he
- 12:56Speaker 3: is just more lighting, just more keep adding ring light
- 13:03Speaker 3: after So okay, so here's what I'll say about the scene.
- 13:06Speaker 3: The bells will were hilarious. I love the hole that
- 13:09Speaker 3: she's like, we gotta get up and go. Your car
- 13:12Speaker 3: dream was super boring.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 13:18Speaker 3: Then you come to the town meeting and actually your
- 13:22Speaker 3: outfits were pretty cute, like Luke and Lorla had it together.
- 13:25Speaker 3: Some people in there were in their pj's are looking
- 13:27Speaker 3: a little bit more disheveled.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I was gonna say, yeah, I thought a very cute
- 13:34Speaker 1: scene in the town hall meeting. I enjoyed it. I
- 13:37Speaker 1: loved Taylor on the video. It was it was with
- 13:39Speaker 1: the ping pong.
- 13:40Speaker 3: Ball and Timmy. It's like, nephew Timmy.
- 13:42Speaker 1: Like do head. I am not a do head. And
- 13:50Speaker 1: speaking of personal invective, uh, there was a rather shocking
- 13:55Speaker 1: expletive expressed in this episode and we'll.
- 13:57Speaker 3: Get to it, and it was do doohead and it.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Was not due to it was actually very shocking.
- 14:03Speaker 3: I can't wait. I think I have slipped by me.
- 14:06Speaker 1: I think I didn't slip by Susanne. It did not slip,
- 14:09Speaker 1: did not you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, I was,
- 14:14Speaker 1: I was can't wait I was so, I was really shocked.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Don't forget.
- 14:19Speaker 1: No, absolutely not. It's my whole reason for coming on today.
- 14:23Speaker 4: Yeah, it is my favorite line. It's probably Scott's favorite
- 14:26Speaker 4: line too, so I have to fight over it.
- 14:28Speaker 3: How did I miss this?
- 14:29Speaker 1: No, it's not my favorite line. It's my favorite line.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Oh really, I thought it did not fit in this
- 14:36Speaker 1: piece in this world?
- 14:38Speaker 3: God, should you tell me now?
- 14:39Speaker 1: No? No, no, We're going to make you wonder.
- 14:42Speaker 3: It's a good tease because I'm definitely hooked. Yeah, the
- 14:45Speaker 3: whole podcast now.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Uh huh.
- 14:56Speaker 4: Going back to the town meeting, I liked this whole well.
- 15:00Speaker 4: First of all, I noticed how long the cold open was, Like,
- 15:03Speaker 4: the whole bedroom scene and the town meeting were all
- 15:06Speaker 4: before the credits. Sorry that struck me, But I really
- 15:10Speaker 4: liked the town meeting. It was so nonsensical. How it's
- 15:15Speaker 4: three twelve in the morning, and why is I mean,
- 15:18Speaker 4: Taylor's in the same time zone as they are. Why
- 15:20Speaker 4: is he three twelve in the morning. Why is this
- 15:23Speaker 4: random nephew up at.
- 15:24Speaker 1: The front right right?
- 15:29Speaker 4: It's just so nonsensical. It just made me laugh.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Right, So by that time, it's put what three uarter
- 15:34Speaker 1: to four? Yeah, exactly what are these kids going up
- 15:37Speaker 1: in the in the in the rumpus room playing ping pong?
- 15:39Speaker 3: I love the whole town being like and then and
- 15:42Speaker 3: what right?
- 15:43Speaker 1: The big announcement comes and then they cut to the
- 15:45Speaker 1: wide shot of the whole town. Nobody reacts. That was
- 15:48Speaker 1: really funny. And then this.
- 15:49Speaker 3: Patty's just like can you do it?
- 15:53Speaker 1: Like?
- 15:54Speaker 3: Okay, meeting and then he's still talking, Taylor's is still
- 15:57Speaker 3: talking and every right kind of a good advanced technology
- 16:01Speaker 3: they had in Stars Hollow in two thousand whatever it
- 16:04Speaker 3: is right in Yeah, they had zoom meetings before he
- 16:09Speaker 3: did that.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Huh. Al Gore invented the Internet and the invented the zoom. Seriously,
- 16:17Speaker 1: look at that.
- 16:18Speaker 3: Although I felt like he obviously couldn't see them, they
- 16:20Speaker 3: could see him anyway, he didn't know they all left.
- 16:25Speaker 1: That's a good question to ask.
- 16:27Speaker 3: Let's pose it he could not see them, but they
- 16:29Speaker 3: could see him.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Does anybody out there know the answer to that? I do?
- 16:34Speaker 1: What is it?
- 16:35Speaker 3: He couldn't see them, but they could see him because
- 16:37Speaker 3: he kept talking even though they all left.
- 16:39Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, well somehow.
- 16:41Speaker 3: He could hear them. Though there's some flaws.
- 16:43Speaker 1: You do not have to yell at me about that.
- 16:45Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'm just I'm.
- 16:46Speaker 3: Just trying to just to talk about the title again.
- 16:51Speaker 3: There's some flaws in the zoom technology back then. But okay.
- 16:55Speaker 3: So then we come back from the credits and another
- 16:58Speaker 3: pop culture sort of moment for me. So we get
- 17:04Speaker 3: we're at the diner and Laura's realizing she's getting so
- 17:07Speaker 3: much done because she's been up since three twelve am.
- 17:10Speaker 3: And then she makes a reference to Katie Couric and
- 17:13Speaker 3: she's never seen the first five minutes of the Today Show.
- 17:16Speaker 3: And then you get the matt lower mentioned, which you're
- 17:18Speaker 3: just like again, ooh like, but we got through it.
- 17:25Speaker 3: Then one of my favorite lines, Matthew mcconoey really gets me. Rarn,
- 17:34Speaker 3: She's like, I'm raring to go. Well, Matthew mccona.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Really gets me. I just saw a video of him
- 17:40Speaker 1: making a pickle margarita. Pickle margarite, some dude.
- 17:46Speaker 3: I feel like I saw that too. Who was that
- 17:48Speaker 3: dude it was?
- 17:49Speaker 1: I don't know, it was just lady. Maybe it was
- 17:52Speaker 1: his partner in the pickle margarita. You know, these celebrities
- 17:56Speaker 1: are coming out with so many alcoholic drinks. That got
- 17:58Speaker 1: to invent new ones.
- 18:00Speaker 3: You know, celebrities love a side hustle. Celebrities do they
- 18:03Speaker 3: love a side hustle.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Everybody's got a tequila bread? Yeah, everybody. Everybody's got a
- 18:08Speaker 1: tequila bread.
- 18:09Speaker 3: George Clooney, Well, I mean.
- 18:11Speaker 1: He I think he was the first. Yeah, and when
- 18:14Speaker 1: he you know, well, let's not.
- 18:16Speaker 3: That one's probably done pretty well for the clue.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Oh sure it's good stuff.
- 18:20Speaker 3: Yeah, that one's pretty legit.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Yeah, it's quality stuff. I think probably a lot of
- 18:24Speaker 1: the Mark quality stuff. I think they probably go to
- 18:26Speaker 1: the same agave farm in Mexico. Yeah, probably slap on
- 18:30Speaker 1: a new name.
- 18:30Speaker 3: I don't drink tequila, so I have no idea.
- 18:33Speaker 1: Oh I drink it all day, all day?
- 18:34Speaker 3: Is that your go to?
- 18:36Speaker 1: No, I don't drink at all. Actually, little wine at
- 18:40Speaker 1: dinner once in a while. No, I don't. I don't.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I can't. I can't drink anymore.
- 18:46Speaker 3: There's a lot of things I can't do as I
- 18:48Speaker 3: get older.
- 18:50Speaker 1: Oh my god, I guess I can still ride a bike.
- 18:53Speaker 3: I can ride a bike, but yeah, getting up out
- 18:55Speaker 3: of things is.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Getting up out of things? Huh up. That sounds like
- 19:01Speaker 1: a country song.
- 19:05Speaker 3: Sorry for those Sorry for those that hate when we interject,
- 19:09Speaker 3: did anybody watch Leave the World Behind this weekend? So
- 19:14Speaker 3: it's the new Julia Roberts Netflix movie. Okay, so it's
- 19:19Speaker 3: actually pretty good, but there is a huge shot I
- 19:25Speaker 3: won't give anything away of the Gilmore Girls DVDs.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Come on, come on, we're gonna get paid. I'm gonna
- 19:31Speaker 1: get paid.
- 19:32Speaker 3: Yeah, do you. I don't know if you get paid
- 19:34Speaker 3: for that, because they just show the DVD boxes. Somebody's
- 19:37Speaker 3: getting paid.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Warner Brothers getting paid. They should, they should.
- 19:42Speaker 3: There must be some Warner Brothers time with this movie
- 19:45Speaker 3: because Friends gets a lot of shout outs, The West
- 19:47Speaker 3: Wing got a lot of shout outs, Gilmore Girls got
- 19:49Speaker 3: a big Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Are these all Warner
- 19:52Speaker 3: Brothers starting to come together?
- 19:54Speaker 1: Yes? Okay, yes, these are all shows un I believe.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Shepherded by the great and now retired President of the
- 20:07Speaker 1: TV Division, Peter Roth, one of the most beloved executives
- 20:15Speaker 1: during his tenure at Warner Brothers. I always had a hug.
- 20:18Speaker 3: He was like, oh, that's nice.
- 20:20Speaker 1: Always had a hug for you. And he was super positive,
- 20:23Speaker 1: super nice guy, super supportive, great guy.
- 20:27Speaker 3: It's good to hear. So I semi recommend that movie,
- 20:31Speaker 3: So everybody tell me what they think. Okay, So back
- 20:33Speaker 3: to now. We go to Rory's apartment and there are
- 20:35Speaker 3: some flowers everywhere, and we immediately know Logan is sending
- 20:40Speaker 3: flowers on flowers on flowers.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Yeah, or or Logan with his wittle heart. He's in
- 20:49Speaker 1: such pain, he's little heart boken. What's he gonna do?
- 20:53Speaker 1: Little witch boy? He can't have everything he wants immediately,
- 20:58Speaker 1: and he's so turned on by this his challenge. Do
- 21:01Speaker 1: you think once he gets her back, if he gets
- 21:03Speaker 1: her back, he's just going to revert back to his
- 21:07Speaker 1: sort of fabulously arrogant self. M what do you think?
- 21:10Speaker 3: I'll never tell?
- 21:15Speaker 1: I Actually I'm rooting for him.
- 21:18Speaker 4: I mean he still is his fabulous erring itself like
- 21:21Speaker 4: he's not. There's nothing to revert back to because he's
- 21:24Speaker 4: still acting.
- 21:24Speaker 3: That way, and I kind of love it.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Well, you think you think you think you think this
- 21:28Speaker 1: is disingenuous? Do you think this is just?
- 21:30Speaker 2: Oh?
- 21:30Speaker 3: I don't.
- 21:31Speaker 4: I think he feels I don't know that he's doing
- 21:35Speaker 4: it on purpose, but I think the only way he
- 21:36Speaker 4: knows how to do things is to throw money at it,
- 21:40Speaker 4: because that's just how he's.
- 21:42Speaker 1: Can't can't he just give our friend Matt a little
- 21:45Speaker 1: credit for the effort he went to the mother, Scott,
- 21:51Speaker 1: I agree with you. That is a risky move and
- 21:55Speaker 1: that could backfire hugely once Rory finds out, like you
- 22:00Speaker 1: to my mother.
- 22:01Speaker 3: You need to know what's in that letter. We're not
- 22:03Speaker 3: to it yet, but I need to know what was
- 22:05Speaker 3: in that letter, she wrote.
- 22:06Speaker 1: I want to know what this. I wanted it not
- 22:08Speaker 1: too I shouted out. I said, read it out loud.
- 22:13Speaker 3: You know, Okay, when we get to it, we'll talk
- 22:14Speaker 3: about that. There's two I'm going to throw two things
- 22:16Speaker 3: out right now.
- 22:17Speaker 1: M hm.
- 22:18Speaker 3: And we don't have to discuss it yet, but I
- 22:20Speaker 3: don't want to forget to discuss it at the end.
- 22:22Speaker 1: I love it when you double up like this, Go
- 22:24Speaker 1: ahead and thanks.
- 22:25Speaker 3: I was ready for two things to happen in this episode.
- 22:28Speaker 3: That did happen, one being Rory and Logan are starting
- 22:33Speaker 3: to get back together. And two is that Laurelin knows
- 22:37Speaker 3: about it. Had they dragged either of those things out further,
- 22:41Speaker 3: I think I would have started to really be like, oh,
- 22:46Speaker 3: so we can talk about that at the end of
- 22:47Speaker 3: the episode. All right, So now we go to the park,
- 22:51Speaker 3: the very snowy park, where Luke is clearly having sort
- 22:55Speaker 3: of his first father daughter meeting. April's on the bench
- 23:01Speaker 3: and there's some funny surprise.
- 23:06Speaker 4: I thought that scene was so cute, like the awkwardness,
- 23:09Speaker 4: because Luke's like, April's like, why are we at the park?
- 23:12Speaker 4: And Luke is, you know, don't kids like the park.
- 23:15Speaker 4: He just doesn't have any idea how to do this,
- 23:16Speaker 4: and so he's doing his best. That's how the Avian
- 23:23Speaker 4: flu is spread.
- 23:24Speaker 3: First of all, I don't do handshakes because you're gonna
- 23:29Speaker 3: have a lot less risk with a hug, I think.
- 23:31Speaker 4: Well, and they both had gloves on, so it was
- 23:33Speaker 4: funny that she even said that.
- 23:35Speaker 1: I give a lot of elbows now, oh elbows.
- 23:39Speaker 3: M So, did you guys notice she sells the pink helmet.
- 23:43Speaker 3: The pink bike helmet.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Was especially the ice. Yeah.
- 23:47Speaker 3: Of course, Luke's like Snowball Fight, Bowling movie Zoo and then.
- 23:55Speaker 1: I missed Snowball Fight. They were so much fun.
- 23:57Speaker 3: Well, aren't you gonna do one? Aren't you going to
- 24:00Speaker 3: the snow for Christmas?
- 24:02Speaker 1: Darn right? I am. That's the first thing I do
- 24:04Speaker 1: when I get off the plane. I'm gonna start chucking
- 24:06Speaker 1: ice balls other kids.
- 24:09Speaker 3: Your kid?
- 24:10Speaker 1: Oh, why would I do that?
- 24:12Speaker 3: He probably likes a snowball, but.
- 24:14Speaker 1: He's liable to retaliate. M I'm not stupid, you know,
- 24:19Speaker 1: I get ruined.
- 24:22Speaker 3: So okay, Well, so she wants to come to the diner,
- 24:28Speaker 3: and you sort of see the a lot of face
- 24:30Speaker 3: acting in this episode, and.
- 24:31Speaker 1: You see this so many faces acting, a lot of
- 24:34Speaker 1: face acting, super super good face acting.
- 24:37Speaker 3: And then I wasn't mused that they wanted to stare
- 24:39Speaker 3: at the frisbee guys and kind of mock them.
- 24:41Speaker 1: So that who's throwing a frisbee in a park in
- 24:45Speaker 1: the snow? What is I've never seen that? Who throws
- 24:49Speaker 1: a frisbee in the park.
- 24:51Speaker 4: I can't remember the last time I saw something throw
- 24:53Speaker 4: a frisbee?
- 24:54Speaker 1: Oh, I see frisbees in the wintertime. Who's throwing a
- 24:58Speaker 1: frisbee in the wintertime?
- 25:00Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not really a winter activity, but I there
- 25:02Speaker 3: was a lot of frisbees. I almost got a light
- 25:05Speaker 3: up frisbee for a stocking stuffer for my nieces. Like
- 25:09Speaker 3: lights up.
- 25:10Speaker 1: Frisbees are still nighttime frisbee.
- 25:13Speaker 3: Frisbees are hanging on they've been around. I tell you
- 25:16Speaker 3: days of your and their.
- 25:19Speaker 1: I've had many Frisbee outings. Yeah.
- 25:24Speaker 3: So all right, so then we're at the Inn and
- 25:28Speaker 3: Kirk sort of discussing with Loralai her her booth at
- 25:32Speaker 3: the carnival, and we find out that Lorelai has broken
- 25:36Speaker 3: many a promise to Kirk or Kirk or Kirk and
- 25:40Speaker 3: then the Maple Syrup Council, which actually kind of made
- 25:43Speaker 3: me laugh.
- 25:44Speaker 1: That was funny, and that thought it.
- 25:47Speaker 3: Came Plaine Maple Syrup did gag me, which it later
- 25:51Speaker 3: gags Lorela and Suki and I had to just get
- 25:54Speaker 3: a pancakers. We're not to that. But so then we
- 25:59Speaker 3: go to the Pace, which these are sort of those
- 26:02Speaker 3: the papers. Paris is so unhinged it just is almost
- 26:06Speaker 3: too much for me.
- 26:08Speaker 1: But yeah, my one flag on the play here is
- 26:12Speaker 1: just this entire you know, the dictator in Paris, which
- 26:19Speaker 1: was just it wasn't even again strained credulity that anybody
- 26:22Speaker 1: would tolerate that. Yeah, all of those really smart, really
- 26:27Speaker 1: privileged kids, you know, sorry, they're not having it. They're
- 26:31Speaker 1: not for five minutes. They're not going to wear a
- 26:34Speaker 1: numbered hat exactly.
- 26:35Speaker 3: And also even in her just being so Parisy, she's
- 26:40Speaker 3: not going to do that. So that was sort of
- 26:42Speaker 3: my thing where I'm like, we're just hashtag trying too
- 26:45Speaker 3: hard with this stuff.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Well, I'm hearing screaming outside my unit. It's not it's
- 26:50Speaker 1: just a TV show. They're yelling at me. I can
- 26:56Speaker 1: already hear the emails whizzing through the cloud at me.
- 27:02Speaker 3: The magnet board, and she's going and typing. It's just
- 27:05Speaker 3: too I'm like, come on, Paris.
- 27:06Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, Paris is one of my favorite characters.
- 27:10Speaker 4: But even for me, that was like, she's like walking
- 27:13Speaker 4: this fine line. Yeah, this is this is a little
- 27:16Speaker 4: over the top.
- 27:19Speaker 1: And look part of what we love about the show, though,
- 27:21Speaker 1: isn't it.
- 27:22Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it's that fine line because I want to
- 27:25Speaker 3: push it. But then when it.
- 27:26Speaker 1: Goes over, I go, yeah, we threw a flag.
- 27:32Speaker 3: So then the coffee cart, which actually was believable and funny, amusing.
- 27:38Speaker 3: I do think he would do that, so.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Yeah, that was pretty funny. But would they have allowed
- 27:44Speaker 1: it inside the pub?
- 27:46Speaker 3: No, I thought of that. I actually thought of that. No,
- 27:50Speaker 3: for so many reasons.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Yeah, so anyway, we're not throwing a flag on that though,
- 27:55Speaker 1: because it paid off.
- 27:56Speaker 3: No, I agree, this is.
- 27:58Speaker 1: The referee did throw the flag, but he picked it
- 28:00Speaker 1: back up and just waved it off.
- 28:12Speaker 3: So whatever the opposite of a flag is is how
- 28:15Speaker 3: I feel about this coming scene because I thought for
- 28:18Speaker 3: all the people that don't like Anna, I thought she
- 28:21Speaker 3: was very correct and appropriate in this scene. So now
- 28:26Speaker 3: we have Luke calling Anna and there's some chitty chatting
- 28:31Speaker 3: about the swooshing grease. Well, well they'll be swooshing grease
- 28:34Speaker 3: around her, and you know, he sort of pulls the
- 28:39Speaker 3: bs of like, well maybe this just isn't a good
- 28:42Speaker 3: time for me, And I thought she nailed it, like,
- 28:47Speaker 3: screw you, dude, you want to be involved. We didn't
- 28:49Speaker 3: ask for this. You don't get to choose when you're
- 28:52Speaker 3: going to be a parent, you are one.
- 28:54Speaker 4: I thought that was interesting because she did make that
- 28:59Speaker 4: choice for Luke. She chose not to tell him he
- 29:02Speaker 4: was a parent, so well, you're just a parent. You
- 29:08Speaker 4: have to just do it like that was that was weird.
- 29:12Speaker 4: But I do agree with though the mama bear part
- 29:16Speaker 4: of it, that like you you either have to be
- 29:18Speaker 4: there for her or not, like don't get her hopes up.
- 29:21Speaker 3: I did agree with that part and correct she was wrong,
- 29:26Speaker 3: full stop. Wrong by not informing Luke about this. But
- 29:31Speaker 3: now it's come out. So the past is the past.
- 29:34Speaker 3: She made those mistakes. We can dig into that forever.
- 29:37Speaker 3: But she was right in that Luke can't be like.
- 29:41Speaker 1: Oh I can I ask you guys something? Does this
- 29:46Speaker 1: seem like a real departure from who Luke is? Like
- 29:51Speaker 1: if he's so caring, I mean, even though it's a
- 29:54Speaker 1: big shock to find out you have a daughter, right,
- 29:57Speaker 1: can he lack the skills to this degree when he
- 30:02Speaker 1: displays such such a toolbox, if you will, of skill sets,
- 30:11Speaker 1: dealing with Laurel I and dealing with Rory all these years,
- 30:14Speaker 1: and then to turn around with his own daughter, you know,
- 30:18Speaker 1: squirming around, trying to get out of it, no she
- 30:21Speaker 1: can't come, and not telling Laura. He's almost unrecognizable at
- 30:25Speaker 1: this What happened to this solid guy who everybody can
- 30:29Speaker 1: depend on and he's the rock and now he's just
- 30:34Speaker 1: acting like an idiot?
- 30:37Speaker 4: Well just wait till the next few episodes.
- 30:40Speaker 3: We've seen small inklings where he gets So I think
- 30:46Speaker 3: his dishonesty comes from a place of love, right, Like,
- 30:51Speaker 3: I don't think he has bad intentions ever, And I
- 30:54Speaker 3: think he's trying to navigate this relationship with April with
- 30:58Speaker 3: good intentions. And I understand why he was nervous about
- 31:00Speaker 3: her coming to the diner because he hasn't told lore lies.
- 31:03Speaker 1: So so tell her it's not that hard. You take
- 31:08Speaker 1: a break from uh, you know, Caesar take over. He
- 31:11Speaker 1: goes over the dragonfly. He tells her, what's you know,
- 31:13Speaker 1: it's ridiculous.
- 31:15Speaker 3: I agree, Well, he tried it in the last episode.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Come on Fries in this one to tell her correct.
- 31:21Speaker 3: He should have just ripped the band aid off right
- 31:23Speaker 3: when it happened.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Right, and he would have. He's that guy. He's the
- 31:27Speaker 1: stand up guy.
- 31:29Speaker 3: Yes, but he's so nervous about this is so major
- 31:33Speaker 3: and he's nervous. And I get that too, Like I
- 31:36Speaker 3: don't hate him for his mistakes. I sort of have
- 31:41Speaker 3: competitive I'm not.
- 31:42Speaker 1: I'm not hating on him. It's just it's just it's
- 31:46Speaker 1: so out of character. Yeah, you know, it's just it's
- 31:51Speaker 1: just isn't him. It's almost like it's a it's a
- 31:53Speaker 1: it's another character that has absolutely no idea how to
- 31:59Speaker 1: navigate his day to day life.
- 32:02Speaker 3: I mean, he's very hypocritical to.
- 32:04Speaker 1: He's been through the he's been through the fire with
- 32:07Speaker 1: Christopher and dealing with all of that, and he's you know,
- 32:11Speaker 1: he's been a hero, you know, all this build up
- 32:15Speaker 1: with this character, and then all of a sudden, his
- 32:17Speaker 1: daughter shows up and he goes all now tole Eel
- 32:21Speaker 1: and he's not It just didn't recognize him. I couldn't.
- 32:24Speaker 1: I did not like this portrayal of this character in
- 32:28Speaker 1: this world.
- 32:28Speaker 3: It's so hypocritical. Like I said, he has been so
- 32:32Speaker 3: adamant about transparency with Laura Leo, about Christopher, about everything,
- 32:39Speaker 3: and then he does not do that. So, m that's a.
- 32:44Speaker 1: Bit the one guy in the world you would expect to,
- 32:49Speaker 1: you know, just sort of plow through it and face
- 32:52Speaker 1: the music right away and be honest. And I think
- 32:55Speaker 1: I think it hurts the character. I think it hurts him.
- 32:59Speaker 1: You know, I don't know fans out there listening in
- 33:04Speaker 1: chime in, We want to know how you feel about that.
- 33:07Speaker 3: It doesn't make him. We can't put him on a
- 33:11Speaker 3: pedestal because he's definitely makes mistakes. So okay, So we
- 33:16Speaker 3: go there's some sort of Paris more Paris Rory stuff,
- 33:19Speaker 3: which we don't love. Then we go into the hub
- 33:23Speaker 3: and Rory realizes, like, oh, here's everybody from the paper
- 33:28Speaker 3: sort of having this meeting. So I sort of agree
- 33:32Speaker 3: that they need to have some sort.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Of a.
- 33:37Speaker 3: Mutiny against Paris. Is that what it's called? What's the
- 33:40Speaker 3: right word?
- 33:41Speaker 1: Yeah? That works. Yeah, she needs to be voted out.
- 33:44Speaker 1: I mean it's it's really a coup d'etas. Yeah, get
- 33:48Speaker 1: rid of her, you know, take over the institutions aligned
- 33:52Speaker 1: with the military and go in there and remove her.
- 33:56Speaker 3: So them lower live bumps into Tailor in his.
- 34:03Speaker 1: I gotta tell you that was hysterical. He bumps into her.
- 34:08Speaker 1: She says, how's it going there? Eight mile?
- 34:14Speaker 3: And also when she says like the rain in Spain
- 34:17Speaker 3: because he.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Says ele line was so good, So suddenly we're line dancing.
- 34:27Speaker 1: What's with the line dancing?
- 34:33Speaker 3: So okay, So then we have Zach, which I can't
- 34:38Speaker 3: decide if I like or don't like the Zach stuff.
- 34:42Speaker 3: There's definitely some funny stuff. So Zach sort of helping
- 34:45Speaker 3: with the booth, and you can tell that he's just straw. Right.
- 34:51Speaker 1: If anybody's the illegitimate child of Luke, it could be
- 34:54Speaker 1: Zach because he's such a ranter. He's just ranting all
- 34:59Speaker 1: over the place.
- 35:00Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe we just talked about it early cranky, that's
- 35:03Speaker 4: a good point, the ranting.
- 35:05Speaker 3: And then I actually was thinking, who is that guy?
- 35:09Speaker 3: He's so handsome and then he calls him like the Clooney.
- 35:13Speaker 1: And the Asian cloney.
- 35:15Speaker 3: Yeah, because that guy was a total babe. I was like,
- 35:19Speaker 3: who is this guy? And then it was a little
- 35:20Speaker 3: creepy when we find out he's the uncle and we
- 35:22Speaker 3: all were like, because I was definitely going down the
- 35:24Speaker 3: one path of like are they getting set up? And
- 35:28Speaker 3: he's so unhinged throwing the milk bottles? What did you
- 35:31Speaker 3: all make of missus Kim though saying I'm not standing
- 35:34Speaker 3: in your way? That was a point.
- 35:39Speaker 1: Maybe she was drinking some of more of that plumb
- 35:42Speaker 1: wine or something and she was talking to Why would
- 35:46Speaker 1: she say that to Zach?
- 35:48Speaker 5: Maybe she didn't lead anywhere, so no, but maybe she's
- 35:53Speaker 5: finally saying like she's not gonna stand in her daughter's
- 35:58Speaker 5: way anymore.
- 36:00Speaker 1: It yeah, like.
- 36:03Speaker 3: I don't know, I sort of.
- 36:06Speaker 4: It's an open question.
- 36:08Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, well we'll leave it to the forum to
- 36:13Speaker 1: but uh. And then and then you know the uncle
- 36:18Speaker 1: is they're throwing the bottles and Zach's just Zack looks
- 36:21Speaker 1: like he's got a pretty good pitching arms Old Todd Lowe.
- 36:25Speaker 1: Maybe there's some old baseball experience in his background. He
- 36:30Speaker 1: was firing some seeds right at the wow and then
- 36:35Speaker 1: comes the most out of place line, because this one
- 36:41Speaker 1: just took me out of the show. Like he called
- 36:44Speaker 1: the uncle a the B word.
- 36:49Speaker 3: The B I t h yes, I mean.
- 36:53Speaker 1: He got that was his last line. That was they said, yeah, well,
- 36:56Speaker 1: you know, maybe I'll throw them harder next time you
- 37:00Speaker 1: And then he said and then he said it, and
- 37:03Speaker 1: the guy just turned around and walked away, and I thought,
- 37:05Speaker 1: what show am I watching him?
- 37:08Speaker 4: So that was, well, we probably are going to talk
- 37:12Speaker 4: about it in pulp culture because that was a quote
- 37:13Speaker 4: from something else.
- 37:16Speaker 3: I missed this company.
- 37:17Speaker 1: I don't care if it was a quote from something else.
- 37:19Speaker 1: It's like, how did that phrase theology end up? And
- 37:23Speaker 1: gill my girls, it's the last show. It was a
- 37:27Speaker 1: little shocking where to hear something like that.
- 37:29Speaker 3: I miss I missed the whole thing. Oh, I'm like
- 37:33Speaker 3: maybe I was just too heart eyed at the at the.
- 37:37Speaker 1: Uncle I shouted out in my unit. I was like, no, no,
- 37:41Speaker 1: they had to come up and knock on my door.
- 37:43Speaker 3: Okay, it seems well we will be uh dissecting that
- 37:47Speaker 3: line in pop culture. So okay, so we did go
- 37:50Speaker 3: out of order a little bit. I'll get us back
- 37:52Speaker 3: on tracks.
- 37:52Speaker 1: So since you did, so you missed it, so we
- 37:54Speaker 1: don't get to talk about it. That's it.
- 37:56Speaker 3: Oh, We're definitely going to talk about it. I think
- 37:57Speaker 3: there's a lot to talk about because it's a huge
- 37:59Speaker 3: pop culture reference that I didn't know but I just
- 38:02Speaker 3: got a note about. All right, so we can talk about.
- 38:06Speaker 1: I think we have to tiptoe around that. We have
- 38:08Speaker 1: to tiptoe around.
- 38:08Speaker 3: This about about the B I T c.
- 38:11Speaker 1: H swear word, swear word, A legit swear word, but
- 38:15Speaker 1: it's a but it's like a you know, it's denigrating.
- 38:19Speaker 3: Are any of us going to say the word.
- 38:21Speaker 1: I'm not saying it. I'm not saying it. I'm not
- 38:24Speaker 1: saying don't say kids listen to this. No, no saying it. Okay.
- 38:30Speaker 1: Sometimes I think perpetuating this word.
- 38:32Speaker 3: Sometimes I think we say s A S H I
- 38:36Speaker 3: T on this show.
- 38:38Speaker 1: But that's something that we all do. That's that's that's
- 38:43Speaker 1: the universal common.
- 38:46Speaker 3: Daily that's true.
- 38:47Speaker 4: It's biologic function.
- 38:49Speaker 1: The the the B word is a slur against you know,
- 38:54Speaker 1: it's not okay, Yeah, it's not okay.
- 39:03Speaker 3: I don't know. Okay, So what I know is there's
- 39:05Speaker 3: a pop culture connection to it that has to do
- 39:08Speaker 3: with the show that the OC and Gilmour Girls. So
- 39:10Speaker 3: we'll get let's dig into it in pop culture. Okay,
- 39:14Speaker 3: keep going through here, so we'll spend some time.
- 39:17Speaker 1: That is hardly a justification. If that's the right, well,
- 39:20Speaker 1: we'll have.
- 39:21Speaker 3: To analyze it. I don't know.
- 39:22Speaker 1: I don't I'm going to start writing letters. I'm going
- 39:24Speaker 1: to start writing letters.
- 39:25Speaker 3: I missed the line completely, So I'm feeling like we
- 39:28Speaker 3: do do it? Okay. So Lorlai gets the phone call
- 39:34Speaker 3: from Luke and uh says, there's something I need to
- 39:40Speaker 3: run past you, I think he said. And she's with
- 39:43Speaker 3: the Syrup Council and definitely won't be coming by the diner.
- 39:47Speaker 3: So we sort of have that exchange, right.
- 39:50Speaker 1: I thought, ridiculous, smarmy, not in character. Don't recognize him,
- 39:56Speaker 1: so you're definitely not coming to the diner. Oh good,
- 39:59Speaker 1: I can just see. Oh good. You know, it's like what.
- 40:03Speaker 3: That was weird?
- 40:05Speaker 4: I had just a minor flag on that because she's
- 40:07Speaker 4: standing there saying I just don't have time to come
- 40:09Speaker 4: over and repeating over and over. She's standing like five
- 40:12Speaker 4: feet away from the diner. The thing she could have
- 40:15Speaker 4: like turned around and even seen him standing there.
- 40:18Speaker 1: That's right.
- 40:18Speaker 3: She's square and there's never a day she doesn't go
- 40:23Speaker 3: to the diner. So I was a little bit like,
- 40:25Speaker 3: am I supposed to be falling for this nonsense? It's
- 40:28Speaker 3: so like, yeah, that was like okay. So then April's
- 40:34Speaker 3: at the diner, which I love that she like parked
- 40:37Speaker 3: her bike and was just like blocking the whole sidewalk.
- 40:39Speaker 3: But the funniest thing for me was the strangler. It
- 40:43Speaker 3: could be a strangler that she's like, oh, walk my bike.
- 40:49Speaker 4: He's like, no, it's a safe town, don't watch.
- 40:53Speaker 3: And then which will talk. Then when she meets Laura
- 40:55Speaker 3: La and tells Luke, well, she said she wasn't a strangler.
- 40:58Speaker 1: That's funny. Again, it doesn't track for me, even though
- 41:02Speaker 1: it was a really funny scene and really well written,
- 41:05Speaker 1: it doesn't track for me that he's this clueless as
- 41:09Speaker 1: a father when he's been a father to Rory all
- 41:11Speaker 1: these years. Right, does you want to sit in color? Like?
- 41:14Speaker 3: Do you want the sit in color?
- 41:16Speaker 1: Part? Really yeah, she though.
- 41:18Speaker 3: She wants to refill the salt and pepper shakers and
- 41:20Speaker 3: she wants to work. I was all good with it.
- 41:23Speaker 3: It has its moments and it's pop. This is a
- 41:26Speaker 3: mixed episode, so okay. Then we go back and we
- 41:29Speaker 3: do have the scene with Suki. I think it might
- 41:31Speaker 3: be our only scene with Suki and Loura LII with
- 41:34Speaker 3: the syrup council and there have like twelve jars of
- 41:38Speaker 3: syrup in front of them like it's a wine tasting.
- 41:41Speaker 3: And then no pancake or waffle like bucket.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Mm hmmm.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Then Logan, So, Logan's at the inn and tells Laurai
- 41:54Speaker 3: he misses her and wants her help. He Logan's got moxie.
- 42:00Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 42:02Speaker 3: What do you guys think?
- 42:04Speaker 1: I think he's doing what a lot of young men
- 42:08Speaker 1: do when they know they've blown it and they know
- 42:12Speaker 1: they really let maybe the one slip away, and they're
- 42:18Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna try to make amends and fight for it,
- 42:21Speaker 1: and you know, starting to get a little stockery here,
- 42:24Speaker 1: stocker ish.
- 42:28Speaker 4: I think he was getting desperate because he's seeing, Okay,
- 42:31Speaker 4: I thrown all this money at her and it's not working.
- 42:35Speaker 4: So what do I do next? And that was what
- 42:38Speaker 4: he came up with.
- 42:39Speaker 1: So I m hm.
- 42:41Speaker 4: You could see that, like he's getting a little desperate.
- 42:46Speaker 1: Yeah again, you know, I I'll shut up. No, no,
- 42:54Speaker 1: I mean it's like I don't recognize these characters now,
- 42:59Speaker 1: you know.
- 43:00Speaker 3: Oh that's interesting.
- 43:02Speaker 1: You know.
- 43:02Speaker 3: It's just I'm still pretty in. I'm still in. I
- 43:05Speaker 3: don't have as many complaints about the characters. I'm still
- 43:10Speaker 3: there's little things. But for me, Luke is still Luke
- 43:13Speaker 3: at his core, even though he's making little mistakes Logan's logan,
- 43:15Speaker 3: loreal lies, Lorelai. I'm good with pretty much all of them.
- 43:18Speaker 3: And for me, they're not making any more mistakes than
- 43:21Speaker 3: they've made for the last five years. They're still just.
- 43:27Speaker 1: Flawed, right, I know, but picture that's flawed Jesus flawed.
- 43:32Speaker 1: They're just acting. Luke's acting crazy. I mean, it's just
- 43:36Speaker 1: like it's just weird.
- 43:38Speaker 3: Bad though, Like would you do if you Okay, so Scott,
- 43:41Speaker 3: you find out tomorrow sorry that you have a kid?
- 43:45Speaker 3: Mm hmm, what do you do?
- 43:48Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you take responsibility.
- 43:52Speaker 3: I mean you call your wife, I mean immediately, Like,
- 43:55Speaker 3: don't you want to get your facts straight first?
- 43:59Speaker 1: At that point, it would be excellent because if you
- 44:01Speaker 1: were still married and you didn't know you had a kid.
- 44:03Speaker 3: Say that's Gwyn and Gavin. So you're married, right and
- 44:07Speaker 3: you find out, So say you find out you have
- 44:09Speaker 3: a thirty year old kid, I don't know, just say
- 44:11Speaker 3: whatever somebody before you met your wife, obviously, don't you
- 44:17Speaker 3: first kind of get your ducks in a row, like
- 44:20Speaker 3: or do you tell her this? I don't know. See,
- 44:23Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know what I would do.
- 44:25Speaker 3: It's so it's so complicated, like would you call her
- 44:29Speaker 3: right away and be like this just happened. Somebody called
- 44:31Speaker 3: me and said I have a kid from thirty years ago.
- 44:33Speaker 1: Pretty much, And yeah, you love somebody and you trust them,
- 44:37Speaker 1: that's what you do. Yeah. Yeah, that's why I'm not
- 44:40Speaker 1: buying into this.
- 44:41Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.
- 44:42Speaker 1: I think it's really clunky and clumsy, and it's it's
- 44:45Speaker 1: it's it's not believable for me.
- 44:48Speaker 3: Yeah. And he didn't do anything wrong. That's the thing too,
- 44:51Speaker 3: Meaning it's not like he cheated on Lorely and has
- 44:54Speaker 3: a two year old. This was way before her. He
- 44:58Speaker 3: was in a relationship with this person and she did
- 45:00Speaker 3: not tell him, So it's not like, you know, it's.
- 45:06Speaker 1: I mean, it reveals his complete lack of trust in
- 45:11Speaker 1: Laurelai to be able to handle this information and process
- 45:18Speaker 1: it in a way that won't disrupt his narrative, which
- 45:24Speaker 1: is the wedding. And I mean, it was kind of
- 45:26Speaker 1: bizarre that he brought up the fact that he needed
- 45:29Speaker 1: more time and we let's not get married June third,
- 45:33Speaker 1: which is months and months away. I mean, it's like
- 45:35Speaker 1: it's wintertime, right, it's probably six months away, and he
- 45:38Speaker 1: wants to delay it because he just I mean, it.
- 45:40Speaker 3: Just that was weird to me too, like like.
- 45:43Speaker 1: What I mean, It's like I was shocked by this.
- 45:46Speaker 1: I thought it was laurele I and I you know,
- 45:49Speaker 1: when I was hearing about and I hadn't seen the
- 45:51Speaker 1: episodes and I forgot you know, I read the script
- 45:54Speaker 1: twenty years ago or whatever it was. But but I thought, oh, well,
- 45:59Speaker 1: this whole blow up is causing laurel I to have
- 46:02Speaker 1: second thoughts and she's going to delay the wedding. No,
- 46:05Speaker 1: it's him he is now. He wants to delay until things.
- 46:08Speaker 1: It's like, what just a bizarre, bizarre turn of events.
- 46:13Speaker 4: I think it speaks to Luke's inability to deal with
- 46:20Speaker 4: any kind of change that's thrown at him. He does
- 46:23Speaker 4: not deal with change well. And so I think he's
- 46:27Speaker 4: and I'm not saying this is justified, but I think
- 46:30Speaker 4: he's just overwhelmed by everything that's going on right now,
- 46:34Speaker 4: and so he's like pulling back. And so when Laura
- 46:40Speaker 4: I were kind of jumping ahead, but when Laura I
- 46:42Speaker 4: presented that option of postponing the wedding, then he was
- 46:45Speaker 4: like he kind of saw that way out and dove
- 46:48Speaker 4: for that exit. Not that that is right, I mean,
- 46:53Speaker 4: I agree that I personally feel that it is kind
- 46:59Speaker 4: of a trust issue, like when he if that had
- 47:03Speaker 4: happened to me, I would have said something to my
- 47:06Speaker 4: partner the second that she came in the diner and
- 47:09Speaker 4: pulled chunks of hair out of my head, like I
- 47:12Speaker 4: wouldn't have even waited for the results. I would have
- 47:14Speaker 4: been like, you know, the weirdest thing happened to me today,
- 47:17Speaker 4: Because if you trust your partner, then you want them
- 47:20Speaker 4: to help you through whatever.
- 47:22Speaker 1: You know.
- 47:22Speaker 4: The scenario is, so I mean maybe.
- 47:25Speaker 1: I mean, are they trying to make us believe that
- 47:28Speaker 1: you know, you know, he's so enamored and so insecure
- 47:33Speaker 1: and so nervous that she's just going to go away,
- 47:37Speaker 1: that he can't possibly tell her the truth about this
- 47:39Speaker 1: because he'll definitely lose her. I mean, that's that's what's
- 47:42Speaker 1: going through his head. Yeah, that's not the character that
- 47:46Speaker 1: I portrayed. That's not how I portrayed it, and or
- 47:49Speaker 1: the character.
- 47:49Speaker 3: Or her right, that's not what we know of her.
- 47:53Speaker 1: Very good point. Both of them are acting strangely, you know, and.
- 48:00Speaker 3: Well she wasn't given the opportunity, like he knows her right,
- 48:05Speaker 3: So he's acting weird for his own character. But he's
- 48:08Speaker 3: also putting some assumptions onto Laurali that she's never really
- 48:11Speaker 3: given us any kind of evidence that she would behave
- 48:13Speaker 3: that way. Yeah, I agree, I don't know. It does
- 48:17Speaker 3: make me think. I mean I started as you guys
- 48:20Speaker 3: were talking like whoa, it's true, Like I do think
- 48:23Speaker 3: I would immediately say something.
- 48:26Speaker 1: Yeah, anybody, anybody would.
- 48:28Speaker 3: It's so much that you almost want to tell your
- 48:33Speaker 3: significant other because it takes some of it off of you.
- 48:38Speaker 1: Exactly, that's your best friend. You will talk to them
- 48:41Speaker 1: about it, help me. This is yeah, it's your partner,
- 48:49Speaker 1: this is your life partner.
- 48:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm also a firm believer. If you're going to
- 48:53Speaker 3: marry somebody. So this is how I always say it.
- 48:56Speaker 3: You're going to marry somebody, that means they have the
- 48:59Speaker 3: decision and to pull the plug on whether you live
- 49:02Speaker 3: or die. Right, You're gonna give somebody that decision, but
- 49:06Speaker 3: you don't trust them with like, hey this happened. I'm
- 49:09Speaker 3: always like, that's so weird to me.
- 49:11Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just he's just he's acting like a cuckoo birds.
- 49:15Speaker 3: It just him, it's not Yeah, he's sort of a mess.
- 49:19Speaker 3: But why have Okay, I know we have a few
- 49:21Speaker 3: more things to talk about. One flag though not even
- 49:24Speaker 3: a flag, a call out. So you know, in the
- 49:27Speaker 3: scene at the carnival, right, so I can't remember exactly
- 49:30Speaker 3: what part, whether it's when Zach's hurling the balls at
- 49:34Speaker 3: the milk bottles, or we see the what was it
- 49:40Speaker 3: called the swami.
- 49:42Speaker 4: The doggy swammy, the doggies.
- 49:45Speaker 1: Dogs.
- 49:45Speaker 3: Somewhere in this whole thing, did you notice the background
- 49:50Speaker 3: actor in the letterman jacket that quite possibly could be
- 49:54Speaker 3: the worst background actor of all time?
- 49:57Speaker 1: What was he doing?
- 49:58Speaker 3: It was a girl and a guy and they are
- 50:01Speaker 3: just so over the top, like just every motion was
- 50:08Speaker 3: like crazy and they showed up again, like I was like, oh,
- 50:12Speaker 3: there's the crazy girl in the letterman jacket again. They're so.
- 50:17Speaker 1: Were they were they taking their moment, their opportunity, definitely, and.
- 50:20Speaker 3: They're so that I'm like, I had a hard time
- 50:24Speaker 3: paying attention to what was happening.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Well, it was too big. The director would have said, hey,
- 50:27Speaker 1: you know, calm down.
- 50:30Speaker 3: Well the director probably said that and then still had
- 50:33Speaker 3: to use the use it because that was nuts.
- 50:37Speaker 2: No.
- 50:37Speaker 1: No, if you if you defy a director in your background,
- 50:41Speaker 1: they'll just you know, replace you.
- 50:44Speaker 3: Jackie. How hard is it to pull up the scene
- 50:49Speaker 3: so they can see, Oh good, she's already looking for it.
- 50:54Speaker 3: I would it's right around where missus Kim says to
- 51:00Speaker 3: to Zach, I'm not going to get in your way,
- 51:02Speaker 3: So it sort of a little bit before that, and
- 51:05Speaker 3: then after there's also a fur jacket that we should
- 51:08Speaker 3: take note of that was fabulous in this scene. But yeah,
- 51:11Speaker 3: everybody needs to watch this because this letterman jacket couple
- 51:16Speaker 3: was just.
- 51:18Speaker 4: While Jackie's looking. There was one other kind of funny
- 51:21Speaker 4: moment going back to the scene where what's his name?
- 51:27Speaker 4: I'm totally blanking remember his name? When he's at the
- 51:32Speaker 4: Dragonfly and one little kind of Laureliism. I had to
- 51:36Speaker 4: laugh when she said that she and Rory didn't speak
- 51:38Speaker 4: for five months three weeks.
- 51:39Speaker 3: Oh yeah days. Did you catch that? Of course? And
- 51:43Speaker 3: I also math is like all weird, it was so good.
- 51:46Speaker 3: And then she also says I hate your father and
- 51:48Speaker 3: he says like, yes, so okay. Well, while Jackie pulls
- 51:55Speaker 3: that up. This is where we sort of have the
- 51:58Speaker 3: moment where Scott talked about where they postpone the wedding,
- 52:04Speaker 3: and it's like she's trying so hard to be sort
- 52:08Speaker 3: of supportive and okay with it, and you.
- 52:10Speaker 1: Just right, but well she wouldn't be okay with it.
- 52:13Speaker 3: It would no And she should have said that to
- 52:14Speaker 3: him too. That was my other thing, make any sense? Like,
- 52:19Speaker 3: you know, she says, do you want to postpone the wedding? Oh,
- 52:21Speaker 3: that'll really help, and I just was like, why did
- 52:25Speaker 3: he even say that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, Well Jackie also
- 52:34Speaker 3: finds this. I think we forgot to say. Tickets are
- 52:36Speaker 3: on sale now, So while you're listening to this, get
- 52:40Speaker 3: your tickets, get.
- 52:42Speaker 1: Your January seventeenth. iHeart Radio Theater and the stream.

- 53:11Speaker 1: available for a week. Now it's two weeks for the stream.
- 53:14Speaker 3: Yeah, we're making five and a lot of people always
- 53:17Speaker 3: want to know, well, we air it as a podcast.
- 53:20Speaker 3: We will never air it in its entirety as a podcast.
- 53:23Speaker 3: There'll be some things you'll be able to hear, but
- 53:25Speaker 3: you'll never be able to hear the whole thing as
- 53:27Speaker 3: a podcast, So I won't say that too. So there
- 53:31Speaker 3: is a reason to do this. So Jackie can't get
- 53:37Speaker 3: us the video, so we'll have to watch it individually.
- 53:39Speaker 3: But do yourself as a favorite. Oh maybe Jackie, you
- 53:42Speaker 3: could even find it for Instagram. The Letterman Jacket girl.
- 53:55Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about h that's the letter. Go ahead, Amy,
- 53:59Speaker 1: What think was in the letter is my thing? Who
- 54:02Speaker 1: knows it was the most nail biting scene. I was
- 54:08Speaker 1: talking to TV says, so, what's what's a letter? Read
- 54:11Speaker 1: it all out? What are you doing? I kept, I
- 54:12Speaker 1: got up and I tried to look over her shoulder.
- 54:14Speaker 1: It was weird too.
- 54:15Speaker 3: I really was like, can you zoom in? At least
- 54:17Speaker 3: I could shot it.
- 54:20Speaker 4: There is, and I should. I should have found the
- 54:24Speaker 4: link before we got on the air this morning. I
- 54:26Speaker 4: didn't think to do it. There is, apparently on the
- 54:31Speaker 4: Warner Brothers tour there is a copy of the letter
- 54:35Speaker 4: are you serious? And it's on there's pictures of it.
- 54:39Speaker 4: It's probably on like Pinterest somewhere. But and I can't
- 54:44Speaker 4: remember now what it says, but the content is out there,
- 54:49Speaker 4: at least as it was imagined by the prop department.
- 54:51Speaker 3: Who oh my gosh what it really said? But okay,
- 54:55Speaker 3: I think I have it. Hold on, oh man, I
- 54:58Speaker 3: do have it? So hard to read? Okay, okay, got it?
- 55:03Speaker 3: Dear Rory. So right now you're reading my sealed words
- 55:06Speaker 3: of wisdom. The tormented, foolish but persistent Cad hangs off
- 55:12Speaker 3: every nuance of your reactions, his heart and mind in
- 55:16Speaker 3: a dizzying flurry of questions as to how the outcome
- 55:20Speaker 3: will play out as you read this, delight in the
- 55:23Speaker 3: knowledge that this love sick, cut off puppy maybe before
- 55:30Speaker 3: you does not have a clue now Ordinarily, after a
- 55:33Speaker 3: fool has taken my daughter's love for granted, if I
- 55:36Speaker 3: did not kill him through a slow and excruciating, painful death,
- 55:40Speaker 3: I would instruct my daughter, much like missus Havisham did
- 55:46Speaker 3: to Estelle, in great expectations, to be cold blooded and
- 55:49Speaker 3: calculating to dash his hopes and crush him. However, the
- 55:54Speaker 3: decision is all yours. To make love is elusive and
- 55:56Speaker 3: all encompassing. When you fall under its intoxicating spell, you
- 56:00Speaker 3: have little recourse but to live out its devices. If
- 56:04Speaker 3: you love this boy, maybe you want to give it
- 56:06Speaker 3: another chance. Good luck, Love you mom.
