- 0:00Speaker 1: I Am All in Again. Oh that's just you.
- 0:17Speaker 2: I Am All in Town meeting with Suzanne French and
- 0:21Speaker 2: Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back to
- 0:25Speaker 2: the other episode of I'm All in Town Meeting with myself,
- 0:27Speaker 2: Tar and Suzanne.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Hello.
- 0:29Speaker 2: Hello, Today we're talking about season two, episode eighteen, Back
- 0:33Speaker 2: in the Saddle Again, which aired on April twenty third,
- 0:37Speaker 2: two thousand and two. And just before we started, we
- 0:40Speaker 2: were like, hold the conversation, and Suzanne.
- 0:43Speaker 4: Said, what did you say?
- 0:45Speaker 3: I didn't really care for this episode.
- 0:47Speaker 2: So much, and I'm the complete opposite. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
- 0:53Speaker 3: I started out like, I thought that the Richard and
- 0:58Speaker 3: Rory stuff was cute. I thought it was cute how
- 1:00Speaker 3: he was getting so involved in her project and all that.
- 1:03Speaker 3: So I did like that part. But then I didn't
- 1:05Speaker 3: understand at the end why they made him be a
- 1:07Speaker 3: complete a hole, Like why did he.
- 1:11Speaker 4: No the head master no, I know, to the head master.
- 1:14Speaker 3: To the head master, like why did he throw a
- 1:16Speaker 3: complete like they were having this whole nice experience and
- 1:19Speaker 3: that he goes and ruins the whole thing. I didn't
- 1:21Speaker 3: like that part.
- 1:22Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I totally understand what you're saying. I
- 1:25Speaker 4: think I saw it more of.
- 1:29Speaker 2: I think he it was to make him realize obviously
- 1:32Speaker 2: we know it was for the payoff of that he
- 1:34Speaker 2: doesn't want to be retired anymore, but like he is
- 1:38Speaker 2: passionate about stuff, and so I took it more of
- 1:41Speaker 2: like he cares about work and he's really doing He's
- 1:45Speaker 2: literally been doing nothing besides poking at that car for
- 1:48Speaker 2: like two weeks or whatever. Emily said, Yeah, so I
- 1:52Speaker 2: took it as like a character arc instead of like
- 1:56Speaker 2: a he was just a jerk, Like I was more like,
- 1:59Speaker 2: I don't know, because I think I get the same
- 2:01Speaker 2: way in the sense of like I was in this
- 2:04Speaker 2: job where like I was just so unhappy and it
- 2:08Speaker 2: made me like kind of not the nicest person. So
- 2:11Speaker 2: I think that's why I did relate to that a
- 2:13Speaker 2: little bit.
- 2:14Speaker 4: But it I get what.
- 2:15Speaker 2: You're saying, like you're just kind of like, why are
- 2:17Speaker 2: you a jerk? And like maybe do it like not
- 2:19Speaker 2: so publicly, right.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Right, And I think he just took it like way
- 2:23Speaker 3: too personally, And I totally get that. You know, he's
- 2:28Speaker 3: he's getting back in that mode where he's feeling productive
- 2:32Speaker 3: and he's feeling useful, and he's like, I'm really enjoying this.
- 2:34Speaker 3: I want to get back to work. And I totally
- 2:37Speaker 3: get that.
- 2:38Speaker 4: But then the the whole, you.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Know, he like turned me. He made the whole, he
- 2:43Speaker 3: made it all about himself, and you know he I
- 2:47Speaker 3: don't know, I just it just bothered me. And Rory
- 2:49Speaker 3: was embarrassed. He's like, no, please, don't say anything, and
- 2:52Speaker 3: he embarrassed her in front of her friends and her teachers.
- 2:55Speaker 3: I don't know. I just didn't like that aspect of it.
- 2:59Speaker 2: I I feel like, but was she embarrassed because I
- 3:02Speaker 2: mean yes, in the moment, yes, but like she was
- 3:05Speaker 2: fine by the dinner, like she didn't really like completely care,
- 3:07Speaker 2: like she didn't make it a big deal.
- 3:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I mean she asked him not to say anything, and
- 3:12Speaker 3: then at the dinner she told Emily and Laurel I
- 3:15Speaker 3: that she felt horrible about it.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 3:19Speaker 4: I mean, here's the thing.
- 3:20Speaker 2: I also was thinking it was very parallel to Laurel
- 3:24Speaker 2: I freaking out on the Headmasters.
- 3:26Speaker 4: So she's already been there. Yeah. So I don't know.
- 3:30Speaker 2: For me, I think I think it's because I enjoyed
- 3:34Speaker 2: Richard's scene with Rory and we don't get those moments
- 3:37Speaker 2: as much, and it's starting to come like within once
- 3:42Speaker 2: we get to the college and stuff like that, like
- 3:44Speaker 2: we'll see more of that, so I think. But you know, weirdly,
- 3:47Speaker 2: the the part of this that I really liked, and
- 3:50Speaker 2: I think it's why I really respected what's her real name,
- 3:56Speaker 2: Paris her uh Eliza, while Liza. There was this one
- 4:01Speaker 2: look that she gave Brad when he's like Paris and
- 4:04Speaker 2: she just gives him this look and I was like, man,
- 4:08Speaker 2: she is so good, Like it was just like that,
- 4:11Speaker 2: no words, but just that look, Like I just loved
- 4:14Speaker 2: her for it, and I was just like, yeah, I
- 4:16Speaker 2: would love to be in a room. I've never met her,
- 4:18Speaker 2: but I love to be in a room like watching
- 4:20Speaker 2: her do that because she seems like I don't know,
- 4:23Speaker 2: I've seen she's brilliant.
- 4:24Speaker 3: I love everything I've seen her in. And I really
- 4:28Speaker 3: liked the Richard and Paris, Oh yeah, interaction like that
- 4:31Speaker 3: was great. I did enjoy that storyline, and that's why
- 4:35Speaker 3: I think that's why I was even more disappointed by
- 4:37Speaker 3: the ending, because it was like this great thing leading
- 4:40Speaker 3: up to it, and I felt like they could have
- 4:41Speaker 3: just ended it on a high note ye. But instead
- 4:44Speaker 3: they like kind of crashed Richard, and I don't know.
- 4:48Speaker 2: I think they also could have just been like, oh
- 4:50Speaker 2: they lost he got upset, left and then came to
- 4:52Speaker 2: dinner and he's like, guess what I'm going.
- 4:54Speaker 4: Like they could have just like I get where you saying.
- 4:55Speaker 4: They could have like cut out the.
- 4:58Speaker 3: Arguing right right right, and then the whole the other
- 5:02Speaker 3: the other thing too, the storyline with Michelle's mother, That
- 5:07Speaker 3: entire thing just fell flat for me, Like there was
- 5:09Speaker 3: nothing about that that I enjoyed well.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Between that and I think everything that happened at the end,
- 5:14Speaker 2: we could have completely cut out of this episode. Yeah,
- 5:17Speaker 2: like Suki, Like the only thing that happened with Sukie
- 5:20Speaker 2: is like her name was misspelled, And it would have
- 5:22Speaker 2: been one funny moment, like.
- 5:24Speaker 4: It would because Susie Susie saying James.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Like, I like she was kind of funny, and the
- 5:28Speaker 2: one like just like Lorali handing her the phone and
- 5:32Speaker 2: then her arguing. I didn't need to see the second
- 5:34Speaker 2: scene of her arguing, right, Yeah, so like you like
- 5:39Speaker 2: like one time, just like if you needed to fill
- 5:41Speaker 2: a scene. But we didn't go anywhere with the Michelle's
- 5:46Speaker 2: mom thing, So all we got was that he doesn't
- 5:48Speaker 2: tell her that she eats car he doesn't eat carbs.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a weird. It was weird for me,
- 5:55Speaker 3: Like it didn't there was kind of no purpose to it.
- 5:57Speaker 3: I am the fake accent was not good. I don't know.
- 6:01Speaker 3: And then the same thing with Sukie's wedding invitation, Like
- 6:03Speaker 3: they didn't really wrap that up either. We got like
- 6:07Speaker 3: two scenes of her screaming at somebody on the phone
- 6:09Speaker 3: and then Michelle walks in and interrupts the rest of
- 6:11Speaker 3: the conversation yell at Laura I about the pasta. So
- 6:15Speaker 3: it's like we never we never got.
- 6:17Speaker 4: The It's so funny. I thought you were going to
- 6:19Speaker 4: talk about Dean.
- 6:20Speaker 2: So I also forgot about the whole like in scenes completely.
- 6:25Speaker 4: So it's very memorable Dean.
- 6:28Speaker 3: I mean, let's talk about Dean. So Dean was super annoying.
- 6:31Speaker 3: He was bugging the crap out of Rory, and you know,
- 6:35Speaker 3: at the end you feel bad for him because you
- 6:38Speaker 3: you see like it's dawning on him that you know
- 6:42Speaker 3: she likes Jess. I did feel bad for him in
- 6:45Speaker 3: that last scene, but he was so annoying with all
- 6:48Speaker 3: the phone calls.
- 6:49Speaker 2: And have you maybe not a relationship or or a friend.
- 6:54Speaker 4: I've had it both ways.
- 6:55Speaker 2: Like have you been in a relationship or had a
- 6:57Speaker 2: friendship where you just felt smothered a little bit? Yes, yes,
- 7:00Speaker 2: Like I a couple of years ago, I dealt with
- 7:03Speaker 2: a friend and like I just got busy with work
- 7:05Speaker 2: basically that's all.
- 7:06Speaker 4: It was.
- 7:06Speaker 2: Like I got busy and we used to like hang
- 7:08Speaker 2: out all the time, and then like you become an
- 7:10Speaker 2: adult and life gets the best of you and you
- 7:12Speaker 2: just get busy, and like I still try to hang
- 7:13Speaker 2: out with friends, and his friend just was like every week,
- 7:16Speaker 2: are you free?
- 7:16Speaker 4: Are you free? Are you free?
- 7:17Speaker 2: And I was just like, oh my god, Like I
- 7:18Speaker 2: didn't want to hang out with her because I was
- 7:20Speaker 2: just like, yeah, so a little bit different than this,
- 7:24Speaker 2: but kind of the same at the same time. It's
- 7:25Speaker 2: like I actually, for the first time agreed with Laurel
- 7:29Speaker 2: Wi's advice of just like let her breathe. Yes, but
- 7:33Speaker 2: I already knew it wasn't going to end well, Like
- 7:35Speaker 2: I just like I understood or her advice is I
- 7:38Speaker 2: don't think that, like I don't know, like you would
- 7:41Speaker 2: hope that Dean could talk to his parents about it,
- 7:44Speaker 2: or like he could have a friend, or I would
- 7:47Speaker 2: have preferred the advice to come from Lane instead of Loaureli.
- 7:51Speaker 3: I think it's a.
- 7:51Speaker 2: Little bit weird that it's her mom, Like I would
- 7:54Speaker 2: have preferred if he like ran into Lane or you know,
- 7:57Speaker 2: like in just at the grocery store wherever they are, Yeah,
- 8:01Speaker 2: Antlain and be like, hey, can I ask you some
- 8:02Speaker 2: advice about Rory? Because I feel like if that was me,
- 8:06Speaker 2: if I was in Dean's shoes, I'd ask the guy
- 8:10Speaker 2: I'm dating's friend for advice.
- 8:12Speaker 3: Right, right, I totally agree with that we've seen. Now
- 8:15Speaker 3: this is what like the second or third time that
- 8:17Speaker 3: Laura Lai had bought it in to you know, Rory's
- 8:20Speaker 3: relationship with either Jess or Dean, and like she just
- 8:24Speaker 3: she just needs to not be the friend in that
- 8:26Speaker 3: moment and just like be but this.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Was the only time that I give her a little
- 8:32Speaker 2: bit of grace.
- 8:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I totally agree with what she said.
- 8:37Speaker 3: I just like you said, it should have been coming
- 8:39Speaker 3: from someone else.
- 8:39Speaker 4: Not yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:41Speaker 2: And I did feel bad for him at the end
- 8:45Speaker 2: because like, you know, Rory was so happy.
- 8:48Speaker 4: She's like, oh, he's only texting me twice in two days,
- 8:50Speaker 4: and it's like.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Yeah, well then go see him, and she's like, oh,
- 8:53Speaker 2: it's making me miss him, Like are you gonna go?
- 8:54Speaker 2: And also yeah, what do you think that she was
- 8:59Speaker 2: actually going to hang out with Lane?
- 9:01Speaker 4: I think she was, but they were gonna go to
- 9:04Speaker 4: Luke to then meet up with Jess.
- 9:07Speaker 3: Yeah, I think she was going to Lane's, but I
- 9:09Speaker 3: think she underplayed the Luke's part because she said it
- 9:13Speaker 3: and then she's like, oh, well maybe not. We don't
- 9:16Speaker 3: even know if we're gonna go, like I think they
- 9:18Speaker 3: she knew she was going to Luke's, like I.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Yeah, she it was to hang out with Lane to
- 9:24Speaker 2: take her and Lane to go see.
- 9:26Speaker 3: Jess right exactly exactly.
- 9:28Speaker 4: And Laura I knew that.
- 9:29Speaker 2: But also it made me the one note I have,
- 9:33Speaker 2: like my one critique, and maybe I missed something from
- 9:37Speaker 2: all the miss calls and stuff, or you know, the
- 9:40Speaker 2: fourteen voicemails to the last scene.
- 9:44Speaker 4: Do you think he's always known that she's like Jess
- 9:48Speaker 4: or like what was the realization?
- 9:51Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 9:52Speaker 1: I think.
- 9:54Speaker 3: I don't know how he finally got to that step
- 9:57Speaker 3: where he like, I don't know where the switch flipped.
- 10:01Speaker 2: That's the thing, is like all it was was that
- 10:04Speaker 2: she didn't answer, or maybe she did. She's not hanging
- 10:06Speaker 2: out that night, Like he knows that they were at
- 10:08Speaker 2: Friday night dinner and he was already It's not like
- 10:11Speaker 2: he was any she was anywhere else. So I was like,
- 10:13Speaker 2: I know that he like underlying, had a feeling, but like,
- 10:17Speaker 2: where was the real I wish we knew the realization. Yeah.
- 10:20Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's a good question because you can see
- 10:22Speaker 3: at the I think it was the end of the
- 10:24Speaker 3: last episode where he was looking through the diner window
- 10:27Speaker 3: at her talking to Jess and he's standing there with
- 10:30Speaker 3: Laura I, and he's like, she wouldn't lie, would she?
- 10:32Speaker 4: And hmm.
- 10:34Speaker 3: So he's already got the seeds of doubt at that point,
- 10:37Speaker 3: and then you can just see in this episode he's
- 10:39Speaker 3: so paranoid. He thinks she's slipping away. Yeah, that's why
- 10:42Speaker 3: he's like so clingy. And they both Dean and Rory said,
- 10:49Speaker 3: I wish it could just be like it used to be.
- 10:52Speaker 3: They both said that at different times to Laura I.
- 10:54Speaker 3: And so, so you're right, like we know that he's
- 10:58Speaker 3: got that anxiety going on, but I don't know at
- 11:00Speaker 3: what point he just like gives up and shows up
- 11:03Speaker 3: on the front portrait.
- 11:04Speaker 2: Unless it's just been on his mind and he just
- 11:07Speaker 2: finally was like I'm done.
- 11:10Speaker 6: Yeah that could be yeah, Like it's probably just you
- 11:15Speaker 6: know sometimes when you hold things in, it's like a
- 11:16Speaker 6: therapy session of when you like hold things in and
- 11:19Speaker 6: then you finally you're just like if I say it
- 11:20Speaker 6: out loud, I think it means I realized it, Like yeah, yeah.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of therapy. I loved the part where they
- 11:28Speaker 2: totally it was such a like of the Times thing
- 11:31Speaker 2: where that generation is so against therapy and Emily's like
- 11:36Speaker 2: like see a therapist or like whatever. She's like, who
- 11:38Speaker 2: would do that? Like I was like, oh, it sounds
- 11:40Speaker 2: like my grid.
- 11:41Speaker 3: Yeah, I know they're out there looking parking meters.
- 11:43Speaker 2: See that was funny. That was actually funny. Fine, did
- 11:48Speaker 2: you see the clown pillow.
- 11:49Speaker 3: I did when laurla I was reading the book.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Yeah, And I all had a question about that scene
- 11:55Speaker 2: when she's reading the book on the table next to her,
- 11:58Speaker 2: there's like a I think there's like a lamp or
- 12:00Speaker 2: something and there's a picture.
- 12:02Speaker 4: Who is that in the picture?
- 12:03Speaker 3: So there were two pictures, one of them.
- 12:06Speaker 1: Is Jackson.
- 12:09Speaker 4: Oh, it's like who is that?
- 12:11Speaker 3: Yeah, there's one of them you can see in Jackson's
- 12:13Speaker 3: like in his overalls. And then but then there was
- 12:15Speaker 3: another picture like in front of it that look more antique,
- 12:19Speaker 3: and I don't know what that one was, but one
- 12:20Speaker 3: of them is suiting Jackson.
- 12:21Speaker 4: Okay, I didn't.
- 12:22Speaker 2: I wasn't thinking it was them because it was also
- 12:25Speaker 2: not very clear, and I was just like, who are
- 12:28Speaker 2: these two random people?
- 12:30Speaker 3: There's other episodes where you can see it more clearly. Oh, okay, okay, yeah,
- 12:34Speaker 3: so it kind of floats around.
- 12:35Speaker 2: I got distracted, like in that scene, I had to
- 12:38Speaker 2: rewind it because I was like squinting.
- 12:39Speaker 4: It was like who is that?
- 12:41Speaker 2: Yeah, the overalls threw me off because I was like,
- 12:43Speaker 2: it's not Christopher. It's not like, yeah, anyone, So the
- 12:47Speaker 2: overall threw me off. Okay, well that makes more sense.
- 12:49Speaker 3: It's Jackson's farm clothes.
- 12:51Speaker 4: So funny.
- 13:01Speaker 3: Speaking of getting distracted, so because I was a little
- 13:05Speaker 3: bored watching this episode, I was paying attention when they
- 13:08Speaker 3: were at the scene where they were the fair where
- 13:12Speaker 3: they were presenting all of their projects, and I was
- 13:15Speaker 3: paying attention to the details in that, and so I
- 13:18Speaker 3: kind of. I kind of went deep on this one.
- 13:20Speaker 3: So Rory is standing there and she's holding one of
- 13:24Speaker 3: their first aid kits that they created, and it had
- 13:28Speaker 3: like a cartoon on it, and I never really paid
- 13:30Speaker 3: attention to it.
- 13:31Speaker 4: Yeah, what was it?
- 13:32Speaker 3: It looked at first I thought it was Archie comics,
- 13:36Speaker 3: but then I so I paused it and I looked
- 13:38Speaker 3: really close and realized it's it's a thing from So
- 13:42Speaker 3: it's a cartoon from I think it's like the twenties,
- 13:45Speaker 3: but it was popular in the seventies. It's keep on Truckin'
- 13:49Speaker 3: and it's these guys with big feet. They're very stylized,
- 13:55Speaker 3: but it's it's from a comic strip that the comic
- 13:58Speaker 3: I think was back from the twenties, but then the
- 14:00Speaker 3: phrase became popular in the It was kind of a
- 14:04Speaker 3: hippie thing like in the sixties and seventies. And I'm
- 14:08Speaker 3: not even sure how I know this or how I
- 14:11Speaker 3: noticed this, but Tony Danza has a tattoo of this.
- 14:18Speaker 3: I don't know why I know that. And I used
- 14:21Speaker 3: to watch Who's the Boss, so I maybe I guess
- 14:24Speaker 3: I just saw it, but I don't know why I
- 14:25Speaker 3: knew that. But anyway, so I googled it and confirmed, Okay,
- 14:28Speaker 3: that's where it came from. Was this guy drew it
- 14:31Speaker 3: for a comic and then it was popular in the
- 14:33Speaker 3: sixties and seventies. But then I had to laugh because
- 14:35Speaker 3: later in the episode there's a Who's the Boss reference?
- 14:39Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say that there is a Who's
- 14:40Speaker 4: the Boss reference?
- 14:42Speaker 3: I assume it was just coincidental, Like, I don't think
- 14:44Speaker 3: they're they put it Who's the Boss reference because of
- 14:46Speaker 3: Tony Dance's tattoo. I don't know that they would have gone.
- 14:49Speaker 2: No, it wouldn't surprise me if Amy actually did that,
- 14:51Speaker 2: though that's true, like has he had that tattoo forever?
- 14:56Speaker 3: So I googled it and there's pictures of him from
- 14:58Speaker 3: taxi and you can see se it was in the seventies. Yeah,
- 15:01Speaker 3: so he probably got it when it when that was
- 15:03Speaker 3: a podcast.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Then I need a google this image Tony Danza.
- 15:09Speaker 3: But it was, And then I was thinking, like, why
- 15:11Speaker 3: would they put that on their first aid kit? Like
- 15:13Speaker 3: it's completely not relevant anymore in the in two thousand
- 15:18Speaker 3: and what was.
- 15:18Speaker 4: This two thousand and three, two thousand and two, two.
- 15:22Speaker 3: Thousand and two. Yeah, So I don't know why they
- 15:25Speaker 3: Why the art department or whoever created this prop would
- 15:28Speaker 3: have chosen that image for their first DAID kit.
- 15:31Speaker 4: That is so weird, random, isn't it?
- 15:35Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 15:36Speaker 4: Is it from anything else?
- 15:38Speaker 3: Like not that I know of, Like I vaguely remember
- 15:41Speaker 3: it from being a kid, like I remember the phrase
- 15:44Speaker 3: keep on truck and from being a kid, but I
- 15:47Speaker 3: haven't heard it in probably I don't know, forty years.
- 15:53Speaker 3: It is, it's random.
- 15:54Speaker 4: I'm gonna go down a rabbit hole about Tony.
- 15:57Speaker 3: This is what I did while I was watching the
- 15:58Speaker 3: episode because I was so board with it.
- 16:01Speaker 4: Oh my god.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so there's a there is now an image.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Well there's there's an image of it, just like written
- 16:08Speaker 2: out like a cartoon instead of just showing I was
- 16:11Speaker 2: looking for his tattoo, and I'm like, oh, this is
- 16:13Speaker 2: way more clear. I can actually see huh. Well, I
- 16:17Speaker 2: know what I'm doing tonight. I'm going down a rabbit
- 16:19Speaker 2: hole about Tony Danza's tattoo. Also, my first thought when
- 16:24Speaker 2: I saw those first of all, they were very cute.
- 16:25Speaker 2: I'm not gonna yeah, but at first, when I was like,
- 16:29Speaker 2: when Richard's like, this is genius, I'm like, is it
- 16:32Speaker 2: like you know, I knew it was for the storyline.
- 16:34Speaker 4: But then I remembered, uh, this is probably like I
- 16:37Speaker 4: don't know.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Ten years ago, I was on set of a Disney
- 16:40Speaker 2: Channel show called Bunks because I was working at Radio
- 16:43Speaker 2: Disney at the time, and there was like a pr
- 16:45Speaker 2: press day and they gave everyone like these like press packets,
- 16:49Speaker 2: like sometimes it's like a T shirt with the name
- 16:51Speaker 2: of the show or whatever.
- 16:53Speaker 4: The show Bunked.
- 16:54Speaker 2: The premise was that they're at camp and they gave
- 16:56Speaker 2: everyone these bags and in it was an.
- 16:59Speaker 4: Entire first that I still have to this day.
- 17:02Speaker 2: It was an entire first aid kit themed as the
- 17:05Speaker 2: show like you're at camp cut and so like the
- 17:08Speaker 2: band aids were like different colors and stuff like that.
- 17:10Speaker 2: And then I like it took me all the way
- 17:12Speaker 2: until like the episode when they actually show or sorry,
- 17:16Speaker 2: the scene where they actually showed like the first aid
- 17:19Speaker 2: of kids.
- 17:19Speaker 4: Are I'm like, oh, I kind of have something like that.
- 17:21Speaker 5: It's cute, but I was like, you know what, like
- 17:25Speaker 5: it was a good idea because band aids are I mean,
- 17:27Speaker 5: as an adult, I'm like, whatever, it's a band aid,
- 17:29Speaker 5: but like as a kid, I was like, oh, I
- 17:30Speaker 5: want the Barbie band aid.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought they were cute. I now my high school,
- 17:35Speaker 3: we had very small lockers that would if that was
- 17:38Speaker 3: in my locker, that would have been all that was
- 17:39Speaker 3: in my locker.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Lock My locker situation was like you had to pay
- 17:43Speaker 2: for it, but they weren't going to give it to you.
- 17:46Speaker 2: Oh really, yeah, we didn't really have Like mind you,
- 17:50Speaker 2: I was not about to carry thirty books in my backpack,
- 17:52Speaker 2: but like, you had to pay for it, and some
- 17:55Speaker 2: people just decided not to.
- 17:56Speaker 5: Oh.
- 17:57Speaker 3: Interesting, Yeah, we used our locker all the time. My
- 18:00Speaker 3: kids high school, they were assigned lockers, but they never
- 18:03Speaker 3: used them like.
- 18:04Speaker 2: They just wait, I just realized, I don't know anyone
- 18:08Speaker 2: in high school right now. I have friends with little kids,
- 18:11Speaker 2: But do they use lockers still? Like, are people using
- 18:15Speaker 2: books or is everything digital?
- 18:17Speaker 3: Most so for both my kids, so I just finished
- 18:21Speaker 3: eight years of high school between the two of them. Oh,
- 18:24Speaker 3: most things are online or they have a classroom set
- 18:28Speaker 3: of books, so they're not really carrying that many books
- 18:32Speaker 3: back and forth because they'll use the book in the classroom,
- 18:35Speaker 3: leave it there for the next class, and then do
- 18:38Speaker 3: the rest of their stuff online.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Oh my god, do you remember when like school started
- 18:43Speaker 2: and you had to go check out your book and
- 18:45Speaker 2: then you'd open it and you'd have to write your
- 18:47Speaker 2: name on who had it.
- 18:48Speaker 4: But then you can see like previous years whose name.
- 18:51Speaker 2: You're like, oh my god, I had this person's book
- 18:52Speaker 2: from like ten years ago or.
- 18:55Speaker 4: Whatever it was. Yeah, And then you'd buy.
- 18:57Speaker 2: All your like textbook covers and they'd be all like
- 18:59Speaker 2: fun and like colorful. I never did the brown bag thing.
- 19:06Speaker 2: I always went and bought I fee like the brown
- 19:08Speaker 2: bag like we always.
- 19:10Speaker 3: I always my mom covered mind.
- 19:11Speaker 2: For me and oh we like for us, like we
- 19:14Speaker 2: would go. You could buy them at like the school
- 19:16Speaker 2: like fair or whatever. Okay, and they were different color
- 19:19Speaker 2: ones and they were like stretchy, like it was like
- 19:21Speaker 2: an actual cover.
- 19:22Speaker 4: Yeah, we didn't have those anyway. Did you have anything else, Susanna,
- 19:26Speaker 4: We really went off topic with textbooks.
- 19:28Speaker 3: I did have one more weird deep dive.
- 19:32Speaker 2: Okay.
- 19:33Speaker 3: Then I have two other little other small points. But okay,
- 19:37Speaker 3: so this is this is a little complicated, so try
- 19:40Speaker 3: to follow.
- 19:41Speaker 4: Okay.
- 19:41Speaker 3: In the pilot, there's a scene where Rory is at
- 19:46Speaker 3: stars Hollow High and the girls around her are painting
- 19:49Speaker 3: their nails. Yeah, and the teacher in that class. Later,
- 19:55Speaker 3: that actress plays Crazy Carry, but in the pilot her
- 19:59Speaker 3: care characters, they didn't say her name during the episode,
- 20:03Speaker 3: but in the credits she was listed as Missus Traster. Okay,
- 20:08Speaker 3: And so in this episode, when Headmaster Charleston announces the winner,
- 20:14Speaker 3: he says, from Ms. Traster's, oh, she transferred schools.
- 20:19Speaker 4: So she.
- 20:21Speaker 3: Either transferred schools or you know, her sister or I
- 20:26Speaker 3: don't know. I just thought it was funny they reused it.
- 20:28Speaker 4: She wasn't in it. It was just the name.
- 20:30Speaker 3: It was just the name and the captions. Now, I
- 20:34Speaker 3: know people are gonna come at me, so I'll let
- 20:37Speaker 3: me head you off at the path. The captions are
- 20:39Speaker 3: wrong because the captions I because when I heard him
- 20:43Speaker 3: say it, I'm like, I had to go back and
- 20:45Speaker 3: put the captions on because I was like, how did
- 20:47Speaker 3: I miss this before? The captions say missus Chester. But
- 20:51Speaker 3: if you listen to what he's saying, he's not saying Chester.
- 20:55Speaker 4: He says Tracter Tracer, and it says that in the credits, not.
- 21:00Speaker 3: Of this episode, oh oh, not in the credits from
- 21:04Speaker 3: the pilot that character is It says, you know, Missus
- 21:07Speaker 3: Traster was Jill Brennan. But in this episode he just
- 21:10Speaker 3: says it when he's announcing the winner. It's not in
- 21:13Speaker 3: the credits, and that there's no like actress, but he
- 21:16Speaker 3: just says miss Trayster's class. So somehow she transported from
- 21:20Speaker 3: stars Hollow High.
- 21:21Speaker 4: To that is so detailed.
- 21:23Speaker 2: I would have you couldn't pay me a million dollars
- 21:26Speaker 2: figure that out.
- 21:27Speaker 3: I yeah, I don't know. I seriously, this is how
- 21:29Speaker 3: bored I was watching the episode.
- 21:31Speaker 4: I'm such a bummer. I liked it.
- 21:42Speaker 3: Then the other thing, I think I think that we
- 21:45Speaker 3: commented on this in the first go round to the podcast.
- 21:48Speaker 3: But when when Lane and Rory and Dean are standing
- 21:51Speaker 3: outside the market and he's trying to tell Rory to
- 21:53Speaker 3: come to his softball game, there's a guy in the
- 21:55Speaker 3: background that has a chicken in his bag, like a chicken.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Like it like a fake chicken.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Like a fake live chicken in his shopping bag.
- 22:05Speaker 4: That's so funny.
- 22:06Speaker 2: I The thing I was trying to pay attention is
- 22:08Speaker 2: when they first start walking, like right by the gazebo,
- 22:12Speaker 2: there's someone pushing a stroller and I was like trying
- 22:14Speaker 2: to really like to see if there was a baby
- 22:16Speaker 2: like at all. It looked like just a blanket. But
- 22:17Speaker 2: I was like, maybe there's a fake baby in there.
- 22:19Speaker 3: Yeah, and I've noticed they used the same stroller like
- 22:22Speaker 3: over and over.
- 22:23Speaker 4: It's just it's just one to like just parked on
- 22:25Speaker 4: the lot somewhere.
- 22:26Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. And then one other like totally minor detail
- 22:31Speaker 3: that when they were talking about the wedding invitations. So
- 22:34Speaker 3: this episode aired, what did we say, April.
- 22:37Speaker 4: Two thousand and two, Yeah.
- 22:39Speaker 3: April twenty third. She says in the episode that the
- 22:43Speaker 3: wedding is May fifteenth, so they're like three weeks out
- 22:48Speaker 3: from the wedding and haven't sent the invitations yet.
- 22:51Speaker 4: But I'm sure they sent save the dates, right maybe.
- 22:56Speaker 2: You know what's interesting is I'm I'm I'm in my
- 22:59Speaker 2: friend's wedding here, and she sent to save the date
- 23:02Speaker 2: like in like March, so I just knew, like I
- 23:07Speaker 2: just knew about it. Yeah, And because I'm in the
- 23:09Speaker 2: wedding and we're doing the bachelorette and I have to
- 23:11Speaker 2: go to New York for the wedding and.
- 23:12Speaker 4: All this, I've known the date that she told me.
- 23:16Speaker 2: She's like, oh my god, the wedding invitations are going
- 23:17Speaker 2: to come through and I'm like, do we not get it?
- 23:20Speaker 2: And she's like, no, not yet, and I was like, no,
- 23:22Speaker 2: I swear you said it. She's like, no, that was
- 23:24Speaker 2: the save the date. Yeah. So I wonder if people
- 23:27Speaker 2: I don't know, I've had, not been married.
- 23:30Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 23:30Speaker 2: I don't know the protocols, but like, is the save
- 23:33Speaker 2: the date just like assuming like you already know you're
- 23:36Speaker 2: coming or not, and the invitation is just like a
- 23:39Speaker 2: formal like.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I think because they also and I don't know
- 23:43Speaker 3: if this would apply to Suki or not, but they
- 23:45Speaker 3: need a headcount for the food because they have to
- 23:47Speaker 3: tell the people how many they're going to be serving.
- 23:50Speaker 3: So I don't know, maybe because it's a small town thing, yeah, or.
- 23:54Speaker 4: Maybe this episode was supposed to air sooner.
- 23:57Speaker 3: Yeah, she's not giving them a lot of time to RSVP.
- 24:00Speaker 4: Well, no, they said that.
- 24:00Speaker 2: They said that the invitation has to go out like
- 24:02Speaker 2: in a week, so really, realistically she was gonna get
- 24:05Speaker 2: people like two weeks.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Yeah, but usually you have to give the head count
- 24:10Speaker 3: like the week before. Yeah.
- 24:11Speaker 2: Well, and at the time, it's probably not like I
- 24:16Speaker 2: mean two thousand and two, it definitely was not like
- 24:18Speaker 2: go to this website and say if you're attending or not.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Like how things are these days, right, it's definitely like
- 24:23Speaker 2: you gotta put a stamp and mail that thing back.
- 24:26Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because that was only three years after my
- 24:29Speaker 3: wedding now that I think about it, which, oh my god,
- 24:32Speaker 3: that means it was a really long time ago. And
- 24:36Speaker 3: like we didn't I don't know how common it was.
- 24:39Speaker 3: We didn't do save the date cards when I got married.
- 24:43Speaker 2: I feel like it's hit or miss these days, Like, yeah,
- 24:46Speaker 2: I definitely have been to like a handful of weddings
- 24:49Speaker 2: the last two three years, and a lot of people
- 24:52Speaker 2: did save the dates, but I always like, okay, a
- 24:54Speaker 2: lot of the weddings I went to, the save the
- 24:57Speaker 2: date came in the mail and then the the actual
- 25:00Speaker 2: invite was like an evite. Oh interesting, So they switched
- 25:04Speaker 2: it up like that was actually very common because you
- 25:06Speaker 2: had to mark off like do you want chicken or
- 25:09Speaker 2: fish or you know, whatever it is.
- 25:10Speaker 4: So they did it all.
- 25:11Speaker 2: Online, but the save the date was like more of
- 25:14Speaker 2: an invitation that they sent.
- 25:15Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I don't know, okay, And I know, like
- 25:18Speaker 3: the people I knew that were getting married, like a
- 25:22Speaker 3: destination wedding those people would send to save the date
- 25:25Speaker 3: because you have to like make travel plans and save
- 25:27Speaker 3: modding and all that. But yeah, yeah, all all of
- 25:30Speaker 3: my friends like that we got married locally.
- 25:32Speaker 1: I don't.
- 25:33Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Maybe that's why I like with my friend. I mean,
- 25:36Speaker 2: she lives here, his family lives in New York, but
- 25:39Speaker 2: a lot of the friends are here, so we're all
- 25:41Speaker 2: traveling to New York for the wedding. Yeah, so that's
- 25:43Speaker 2: probably why the save the date. In my head, it
- 25:44Speaker 2: was the invitation. Yeah, but good point because Suki seems
- 25:49Speaker 2: to be an organized person and this is the very
- 25:52Speaker 2: last minute of her Yes.
- 25:54Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I didn't. I didn't hate the episode.
- 25:57Speaker 3: I just was a little bored by it. I didn't
- 25:59Speaker 3: really here for the Michelle's. We didn't have a Laurel
- 26:02Speaker 3: story in this episode.
- 26:03Speaker 4: She was kind of just there.
- 26:04Speaker 3: Yeah, she was just kind of floating around like the.
- 26:07Speaker 4: Omelet thing was kind of funny.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
- 26:10Speaker 2: She basically like told him to take absolutely everything off
- 26:13Speaker 2: of his Omelet special and just give her eggs.
- 26:15Speaker 3: That was a good scene. I had forgot about that.
- 26:17Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a good scene.
- 26:18Speaker 3: That was classic Luke and Laureli.
- 26:20Speaker 2: It was a little slight, like a little slip of like, oh,
- 26:23Speaker 2: that's Jess's handwriting. So it was like a Laurel I moment,
- 26:25Speaker 2: but like we got to get the Yess there.
- 26:28Speaker 4: But there was no Jess in this episode.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Oh you're right. We just talked about him.
- 26:32Speaker 2: We talked about him so much I think that we
- 26:34Speaker 2: were like, oh, yeah, he was in it.
- 26:35Speaker 4: He was not.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well he's gonna play a starring role in
- 26:39Speaker 3: the next episode.
- 26:42Speaker 2: Which brings us to next week. We're talking about season two,
