Speaker 1 (00:00):
First of all, you don't know me. Were all about
that high school drama, Girl Drama, Girl, all about them
high school queens. We'll take you for a ride in
our comic Girl Cheering for the drama Queen's Girl Fashion,
but you'll tough go. You could sit with us Girl Drama, Queens, Drama,
Queen's Drama, Queen's Drama, Drama, Queen's Drama, Queen's Everybody. It's

(00:26):
episode twenty two. It's the season finale of season one,
One Tree Hill. Case you didn't know what show we
were all watching, It's One Tree. The episode is called
The Games That Play Us and it aired May eleventh,
two thousand and four. Somebody read us an opposite tell
us what happens in this episode, Sophia hit It says, okay, y'all.
Lucas and Nathan have to bear Dan's abuse as he

(00:48):
coaches them in the playoffs, pushing them both to the
breaking point. After Dan threatens her not cool, Hailey reconsiders
her relationship with Nathan, and Whitey learns that his medical
condition is serious and something left off the synopsis that
feels pretty important is that Lucas is moving to charm

(01:10):
Bang Deal really big deal. Didn't this feel like you
guys like they were prepping this for a series finale.
They were like, there's no promise that this thing's going
to keep going. Like, let's give everyone a happy ending.
So the happy endings of Haley and Nathan and Dev
and Keith finally hitting all that powerful energy, and finally

(01:32):
Brooke and Peyton ending up in bed together like everybody
got a happy ending, and Lucas left town, except we
left Karen and tears and Dan maybe dying, although that
might just be his my favorite you better hope I die.
I die. He's like having a heart attack or something.
I was like, what's going on. Something that I thought

(01:55):
was really cool as a device is that we basically
play aid this whole moment in time for all of
our characters and all of our little worlds in the
framework of the playoff game, And so the dialogue would
lead from the game back to a scene from the game,
to the cemetery from the game to Peyton's house, and like,
I don't know, it was it was a really cool divide,

(02:18):
like it I liked that you did. It was really confusing,
but eventually caught on because I didn't I forgot. So
I was watching this and I'm like, what is happening?
Why we keep this just all over the place? And
maybe it was just wasn't executed perfectly. I mean, you know,
God knows, when you're shooting a TV series and you're
prepping other episodes and you're dealing with lots of other stuff.

(02:39):
I understand how some you know, it's hard to get
meticulous at things like that, but it confused me until
about halfway through. I was like, you know what's funny.
I think I was so prepped for the playoff game
because the three of us have been like, but the player,

(03:00):
Lucas can't move away with Keith and play in the playoffs.
So I was really really ready for the game. Yeah, okay,
I want to talk about Lucas walking into Dan's office
of his own volition and saying, I guess I'm sorry
for resenting you, which I thought was honestly really unrealistic.

(03:20):
But the next thing he said what I really liked,
which because he was like, I'm sorry for resenting you
for not being there for me. Because I was like, no, well,
you shouldn't be apologizing to this guy. Why would you
do that? And I guess he's trying to be the
bigger person or do that for his own conscience sixteen
year old kid, or just be a sixteen yeard. But
that's what I was like, just sixteen year old boys
really like get that vulnerable and decide to go whatever.

(03:41):
But the next thing he said was something about what
did he say next? There was like a it was
a different apology, but it made sense. He went in
there and he said that thing about I'm sorry that
I resented you for not wanting to be in my life,
and I guess I never thanked you for saving That's
what it was. Yes, I really loved that. I really

(04:03):
appreciated that he was really tying up, trying to make emends,
tie up blues ends before he left and beat just
be a better man before he leaves town. I thought
that was really cool. Yeah. I liked the parallel also
that Lucas kind of you know, swallows his pride and
chooses to lean into his vulnerability with Dan, and it's

(04:24):
echoed as these boys are becoming friends and brothers later
with You and James in the Haley and Nathan moment
where he says, you know, my pride would tell me
to just say yeah, that's it and leave. But my
heart wants me to tell you that I love you
and then I'm not going to give up on us.
And and you see both of these. I mean, you're right,
these sixteen year old boys making very grown up moves

(04:51):
to be honest about how they feel, even though their
feelings are complicated. What was big of him to open
up a door for Dan? You know, everybody, it's like
so easy to vilify Dan, and if Luke is trying
to see the silver lining there, just to be like, hey,
in case you wanted to try to be that guy
again that you were at eighteen years old, like, here's
an opportunity for that. And it gets yeah, because we

(05:16):
all would love communities to go back and fix the
thing that we screwed up when we were young and dumb.
You know how many times do we get that chance?
And Keith gave that chance to Dan. Also in this episode,
when Keith says I'm leaving and you know, tries to
have one last moment of I don't know, reconciliation or

(05:37):
something something that the other moment that we just saw
with Luke and Nathan, you know, like, yeah, it was
so nice if they could just hug yeah, and Dan
gives him another sniper mark and I can't, can't do it. Yeah,
Dan really stabs at people in this episode. For me,
the the theatrical device of the juicy suits was incredibly powerful.

(05:59):
This because dead in that bed velvet Hailey at the
beginning of the episode in her own That's how we
knew she was about to get Yeah yeah, Dan, because
you were looking gorgeous like a snack, like a snack.
I almost said it, looking like a beautiful, juicy little snack.

(06:24):
When Dan does snip at you, and so then to
see it paralleled later with Barb just like I'm vulnerable
to juicy. Such is such a powerful thing. I feel
like we're going to have drama queen juicy suits. Y'all
better justice prep yourself. It happened done. We need to

(06:45):
d m those people on Instagram and figure it um
Dan's story. So Dan going to deb while she's crying
and signing the papers and that whole manipulative story about
I was going to leave you that day. And for Karen,

(07:06):
how about that super gus you told me you were pregnant.
I picked you, I picked you over the girl I
really loved so that was our first hint that he
really loved Karen. He went with the girl with the
most money, seemingly made his decision, the girl who dropped
him start his car empire. And then we know what

(07:27):
bugged me though, okay, it bugged me that after he
walked in and found Dun Dun Dun, Deb and Keith
wrapped up in the blankets, so hot, so hot, I
wanted to see more of it. Why did they make
us not watch that? Why didn't they? Right? They made

(07:49):
us like do every lingering kiss ever, we should have
gotten at least seven minutes seven minutes in heaven with Devin.
K wanted it, and Dan walks in and he sees
them and it was so vindicating, and then they both
go and try and apologize to him. He was like, man,
this guy has got people really wrapped around his finger,

(08:09):
Like why in the world he's stolen his brother's company.
He you know, has rubbed it in his face a
number of times that Karen doesn't want to be with him,
Like every dig Dan can get in he has. And
so I hope Deb had a whirl. I hope she
had a great time. I hope they earned it, you know,

(08:30):
they really did. That is a great point though, why
they're apologizing to him. I mean even it's it's so
hard in that scene we were referencing earlier to see
Dan be so cruel to Lucas and say, you know
you're already supposed to be on the court, you know,
go run win sprints like he physically punishes his boy
for being vulnerable. And then when Keith tries to talk

(08:51):
to him this one last chance before he leaves, that
it's such a gut punch when he says, oh, would
you do with the ring if your leave and you
must be proposed to care and she said no. I
was like, oh my god, brutal, Like why are these
people apologizing to this? Why are they Like is that
the right thing to do? Like do we have to
continually in our lives apologize to the dance Scots in

(09:13):
the world or struggle with this? Really struggle with this
because there's a huge part of me that's like I
want to be the better person. I want to not better,
Like my ego is saying I want to be better
than you. But if your better, Jake, it's that I'm bad.
I want to go to sleep at night knowing that
I've cleaned up any mess that's out there. You know,
if I feel like there's a mess and I have
any control over cleaning up some part of my portion

(09:36):
of it, regardless of what the other person has done
or said, my way of living, I try to clean
up my mess. Um. So I understand that. But also
there is also a codependent thing that kind of goes
along with that that I end up getting taken advantage
of a lot, I think because I do tend to

(09:56):
give people the benefit of the doubt, I too do
tend to you know, I don't want to be mean.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes. I don't
want to assume the worst. And so I do that
for long enough that you know that I end up
waking up and being like, wait, I'm being totally taken
advantage of. Why have I been allowing this to go
on for so long? Who does them to you? I'll
fight them. Do the list, you just pass it along.

(10:21):
It's my it's my whole life. And by the way,
that's I'm equally responsible because I allow it to happen.
And so that's the question of where why do deb
and Keith and Lucas and even Nathan sometimes like why
do all what is that about us that that makes
us feel that we need to perpetuate the cycle of

(10:43):
like allowing somebody to hurt us, and then we go
back and we're the ones who apologize even when they don't.
What is that? Yeah? Well I think you're right, though, Joy,
And perhaps I think you're right because I see myself
in the explanation you just offered. Are dead to me?
I hate your face. I need someone those boundaries, Hillary, Yeah,

(11:05):
we've been learning boundaries in our adult lives. Um. I
certainly think that for me, in trying to learn boundaries,
the thing that was the hardest to accept was not
everyone deserves the ever. Not everyone deserves you being the
bigger person to try to clean up everything, because it

(11:28):
puts you in a position where you're constantly afraid that
it's you, that you're failing, that you're doing something wrong.
And and really, what it takes me back to and
we've been we've all been talking about this dynamic with
him that is so well represented on our show, which
is probably why it hurts to watch. Those are abusive relationships,

(11:49):
Those are being in codependent relationships with Um users or
all the way up the ladder to narcissists. And I
think that it's like, uh, it's hard to know when
your desire to always figure out why something's happened and

(12:09):
learn from it and learn the lesson and heal from
it and make everybody be friends, Like do you really
have to do that with somebody like Dan Scott? I
don't think it's an optimism. It's a level of optimism
that's lovely. And I love being around optimistic people. And
for me, like as someone who's prone to say you
real fast, um, it is good for me to be

(12:31):
around optimistic people. And I like watching optimistic people. So
I like watching the characters in this episode try try again,
try and try again, um, and it may work out.
I mean, I don't know what the hell happened season seven,
eight nine? So does Dan ever? Does he ever? Circle back?
Is all the effort worth something? In the end, We're

(12:52):
going to find out. I'll find out. I don't know it,
but we have a lot of optimistic kids here, and
I think, yeah, I had no idea how many of
our like signature moments and signature like lines were packed
into this. I forgot to so many major things. Well, okay,

(13:15):
here let me This is one of my favorite quotes
of the episode. Keith says to Karen, let someone discover
how staggering you are to it killed me and the
two of them to I know, I know, and the
two of them together, and the way that they this

(13:37):
is watching two pro actors go at it because it
was so under played. They did. They weren't like, they
weren't milking it. No one was chewing scenery. For those
of you out there who aren't the Thespians, chewing scenery
is like He's like, when somebody just kind of takes
a very minimal scene and then they literally, you know,

(13:57):
they would nobody actually does this, but you're chewing on
the scenery like you're just like making you're making a
meal out of something that's smaller than that. They just
were so simple and dropped into their bodies and all
the eye contact and that he could see all the
emotion was washing all over them. They just sat there
and felt it and then set their lines and it
was so beautiful. Yeah, that really was a hard scene

(14:22):
to watch because he's like, did you ever love me?
And she just can't, she can't say yes, and that's
It's like she let him be her partner for so
long because for her that was enough. You know, I
don't need somebody to sleep with. I just need somebody
to like maybe cook dinner with sometimes and help. She
needed help raising her child's and he but also talk

(14:47):
about allowing things to go on like he could have.
He could have pulled the plug on that at any
moment and said, look, if I'm not if we're not
going to be together, I can't participate in this. But
he didn't because he was. He was getting something wonderful
out of it too. You know, even though it wasn't romance,
there was something else that was deeper and was intimacy
them that they needed. It wasn't simiththy Yeah. I think

(15:16):
it can be complicated for you know, two people who
would theoretically be attracted to each other or date to
be best friends, you know. And it's interesting to see
the adult version of it because there's so many people
that I know and so many conversations we've all had

(15:37):
about like oh yeah, before I was like young enough
to discern, and I thought I was supposed to date
that person who is my friend. You know, you're engaged
to your friend. Dude, you guys are friends for how
long before? Yeah, I represented didn't see it. I um,
And sometimes you do the opposite. And it's like to
see these adults being, um, the opposite thing on so

(16:00):
many shows like ours, which is what all of our
characters do. Like the kids are trying to figure out
who do they love, who are they really supposed to
be with? And I love seeing the inverse intimacy of
Keith and Karen because they they love each other so deeply,
but they've not crossed that line. They've never given it

(16:22):
a shot. And it's almost like it's been so long
that that for her she can't imagine doing that. And
for him, it's been his secret. You know, he doesn't
have that problem. Um. Brooke and Peyton, because boy, and
they loved to cut into that shot of us in

(16:42):
the gym over and I did they did? What what
was this guy? We're just making eyes at each other.
I'm like, hey, you're still looking at me. I'm still
looking at you. And it just kept going over and over.
It was was it the same shot over and over?
I think it was the same shot multiple times. They

(17:02):
just want like, go back to it, go back to
it cut back to Brigan Peyton, but then like we're
in the bar together and we're just smiling, and then
we're in bed at the end and we're just smiling.
Let's do something great together. I didn't realize how I
was looking at you. Maybe, and maybe I did realize
how it's looking at you. But looking back on it,

(17:26):
you know, almost twenty years later, I'm just like, yeah, duh,
that is totally a Roman. They're just they're so happy
to be back together and they're so happy. So what
you're saying is that episodes ago you were like, God,
Peyton is so gay for Haley, and now Peyton's back

(17:47):
to me. In business, it's like Jake Lucas Haley bro everybody.
Changers are experts at just ripping our hearts out and
handing them to every single person who looks at us
the right way. Me love me. But also that is
like a real thing, like that whole used to joke,
uh in the last season on One Tree Hill, when

(18:09):
I was like single and like kind of dating around,
and I would we played this game, you know that
children's book Are You my mother? Oh? Yeah, So I
used to joke like, are you my husband? Are you
my husband? Are you my husband? Are you my husband?
With like like people in bars and things, Hillary saying
I literally I told that, Like every time I see

(18:31):
a man reading on the subway in New York, I'm like,
are you? It could be honestly, it's it's like, uh,
I don't know, because that spark of seeing someone for
the first time, or that spark of like recognizing someone
that maybe you've known for a little while but you've
never looked at that way, that's exciting, and I think
that could almost even be addicting, especially to someone like

(18:52):
Peyton who doesn't have a stable home, and so it's like,
are you gonna be my fix? Are you gonna be
my fix? Are you gonna be my fix? And Brooke
is the ultimate fix, like that's the person who has
loved her through everything. But I think that's also part
of the depth of Brook and Peyton's bond. Neither of

(19:12):
them knows what a healthy adult relationship. So both of
these right, they've had nothing modeled, and so of course
these girls get into a messy entanglement with the same
boy of course they love deeply, and an entanglement they
you know, they love deeply, and they and they and
they hurt deeply together because there are two little girls

(19:36):
who have never had an adult teach them how things
are supposed to go. So they're desperately looking for the
thing that feels like home. They're playing house. You know,
if we can just like if you have have a
house and I have half a house, if we just
combine forces, then maybe we'll have like a whole situation.

(19:58):
Um and I, you know, knowing that we were on
the bubble and we didn't know whether or not we
were going to come back or not, I appreciate that
that's the storyline that they chose for us. That it
wasn't like all of us ended up with Luke one
of like I ran off with Jake. It was like, no,
this bond is the important end cap to this story. Yeah,

(20:19):
so's the reason why, you guys, this friendship was just
so epic on the show and and something that carried
so many people through I mean, I think that your
friendship was set an example for so many young women.
And you know, they just as much as Nathan and
Haley were this iconic couple, I think Brook and Peyton
were the iconic friendship friendship couple of the two thousands

(20:42):
and that shows up all the time, and fans we
never got a rainteller. Joy. Yeah, you guys had another rain.
I know. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to leave soon
because I have I'm in Nashville right now, and you
guys friends out there listening. It's been a real pickle
trying to figure out our schedules because we've all got
other other projects and children and you know, all these

(21:05):
other responsibilities and normally it's been so we find time,
but this week, for some reason, it was just really differs.
So anyway, this was our only kind of time slot
to get together. So you get me for the first
half hour, and then you get you got these other
two for the last. We're going to talk about and
making the thing. They're going to carry you out. But

(21:26):
before I go, I want to talk about that scene
with Nathan and Haley, because Okay, first of all, the
rain was so intense. It was like I was blinking
like I could not because James is so tall and
I my eyes. If you looked at them scene, I
couldn't even look up at it. I was just like
this pelts of rain. Somebody help me, diving into my

(21:49):
eyeballs um, but he looked so great in the rain,
by the way, him looking down with that angle and
that jaw and the rain just pouring in his face,
and he looked more like a man for the first time.
Totally agree. Yeah, I was, Yes, I was like, I
was like, baby Jake, I know, I know what. Hell God,

(22:11):
I remember that day though. I remember the scene in
the cemetery, and I really remembered shooting this episode. Watching
this back, I went, oh, I have visceral memories of this.
I remember being in the cemetery and how cold it
was that night and trying to you know, we were
just out there so late, and it was the first
time Chat and I had been able to do a
long night scene and just hang out and chat together
in a really long time. So that was super fun.

(22:33):
But this, Yeah, the speech that Nathan gives Haley about
she's clearly threatened by a sexual relationship was the one
line that really bumped me. To bump you guys too,
or was it just me that you were threatened by
a sexual relationship? It was that you were irritated. It
was on his computer, like, bro, you had this on

(23:01):
your laptop currently. And also and by the way, they
could have chosen, you know, our our episode aired last
week all about the porn they could have chosen, like
websites that didn't sound as like raunchy as the one
like some high ed material for Nat. They really did.

(23:22):
But I just it begged me because she wasn't I
don't think she was threatened by a sexual relation. What
would be threatened that? That's so insulting. Actually literally Peyton
drops her off to that scene. For me, I was like,
they're together. Oh yeah, wa if you were threatened, why
am I dropping you off? Like why yeah, Like that's

(23:44):
clearly not it. And what what bugged me about it
is it was again going back to the device of
like you shouldn't care about the sex because you have
my heart, And I was like, no, it's not about
the fact that this is a person who's been sexual Sure,
that can make you feel a little nervous about your
own whatever, But the whole point is that she's upset

(24:06):
that there has been a lot about sexual activity that
doesn't include and this is someone who clearly has a
very high view of sex. She doesn't see it as
a commodity to trade or something that is you know,
for her, this is something that she really values and
puts puts a high value in because it really is

(24:27):
meaningful to her. And you know that's complicated when you're
in a relationship with someone who hasn't functioned with sex
in that way. Um, and who knows, you know, how
things can change for for Nathan or how things have
changed for him. But I just thought that was really
the wrong line to choose. And I remember feeling like, guys,

(24:48):
I hate this line. Can't we change it? But it
wasn't my line, so it wasn't up to me. It's
so hard to change someone else's dialogue, like yeah, so
I just had to like, Okay, Hayley, it's going to
forgive him. I guess I will say props to James
because he took some lines that were gross and and
that device of like you have my heart that we've

(25:10):
been complaining about for weeks, just being like come on,
like have a real conversation, and and he was he
was to your point, like he brought a man's energy
to it, he brought his vulnerability to it. He he
he sort of got over the worst of the dialogue
as quickly as possible and leaned into the apologies and

(25:34):
into how he wasn't going to be a typical guy
who just sat in his pride and said we'll forget
it and and he brought all this other stuff to it.
I was really impressive. You know, he was eighteen years old,
like doing that scene and what a what a g
our friend is He threw away the bad lines. He
was like if I just see him really fast and

(25:54):
like yeah, and then he leaned into the good lines
and it was It was really sweet to watch because
even though I, you know, I feel for you in
that moment, joy and like I didn't like that either,
I still came away from that scene going I really
like that. I like that he chose vulnerability as a team.
It's just realistic too, by the way, because nobody just

(26:16):
changes their mind and it's rare that someone will change
their mind on a dime and everything's going to be
perfect all of a sudden. So it's fine that he
had to find you know, that was sort of where
the line that he could come to to make sense
of it, to keep moving forward and you know, give
him space to grow. I guess I don't know, am
I being too gener no? But you ended that scene perfectly.

(26:37):
I mean the will if you have to, was yeah,
and it was such a good kiss. And then we
were in his house and that bra from Edge of
Urge because the whole thing about that you have to
tell the bra story. Oh my god, you guys. In
my notes, I literally have that satin bra and on
my notes sheet, Joy, you looked so hot that probably

(27:01):
they wanted me in a regular bra. And it was
twenty one. I had never been in a regular bra
on TV before. I mean, now I'd be totally naked.
I don't have a problem with it, but you know,
whatever given, But yeah, at least I have no shame left,
Like I'll take all the roles Kate Winslet doesn't want.
But I You're like, paint me like one of your friends.

(27:24):
But back then, you know, I was. I was definitely
really nervous about that. I didn't want to be in
a bra on TV, and so I didn't know what
to do. And we found this sort of sports bra
thing that was satin, so it looked like something Haley
would wear. Um, but I do remember filming that scene

(27:44):
and it was, uh, I couldn't wear nipple pads because
they would have shown through the satin. And so you know,
it was a little cold in there when I went in,
and I remember, God, I'm trying to remember exactly what happened,
but I know that our director, I specifically, was like, listen,

(28:08):
I really don't like I'm in satin and my nipples
are going to show through this, and I really am
uncomfortable with that. Can you please just like shoot above it,
just make sure you're like or or just wait until
like it swarms up and it warms up a little
in here. And he said, no problem, absolutely, and then
they just sucking did whatever they wanted to do. That's

(28:29):
what they did around it. And I was so upset.
I was so upset because honestly, I could have chosen
a padded bra that at least it would have been
like a bikini top, but then I wouldn't have been
so exposed. But the fact that you can totally see
my nipples through that shirt and it was a satin
there beautiful. Hey, I got great boobs. I'm so happy
about them. But I'm so happy about them that needs

(28:50):
to be on a shirt. I'm so happy about that's right.
But at twenty one, I was like, oh my god,
it's a big deal. But you but you were scary.
You looked so beautiful and so innocent, but also it

(29:10):
was clear this is a girl coming into her own,
she's making decisions on her own, making a decision. I
thought that you played all of that really really well,
you know, and and it's iconic for for the you know,
cannon of the show. It's this episode you two kissing
in the rain and then getting married that carries through

(29:32):
the rest of the series. Lucas has such a good
reaction at the end when I'm like, we got married
last night and dropped the bomb, and Hayley and Nathan
just like like, it's cute, but Lucas was like, oh yeah,
you two. Honestly, we're so giddy and cute in that cute.

(29:55):
I remember getting those pages. Don't remember when they gave
us the pages were in red. The last like ten
pages of the episode were in red. In the script, yes,
because people were leaking our scripts for they were getting
leaked and the red pages with the black ink couldn't
be zero that's right, everything would disappear. So they gave

(30:15):
us the end of the of the episode in red
so it wouldn't get leaked. Onto the end. I was
in my trailer when I read this and I when
I saw that line, Haley was like, we got married
last night. I beats it out of my trail because
James and I shared a trailer and I busted out
of my trailer and I ran. I banged on his story,
like teach, what did he say? He was like, yeah,

(30:36):
I can't believe it. Crazy but that we could have
ended the show and everything was wrapped up. Everything was
nice and tidy. You two getting married was the hook
where people were like, wait, what this? It was smart
and back. It was very smart. It was very smart.
Inquiring minds want to know, how's this marriage going to play? Book? Girls?

(30:59):
You talk about it amongst yourselves. I love you. I'm sorry,
what are you doing? We want to we want to
cheer on whatever you're working on. Oh thank you. I
am you did a show, did a show last night
in Nashville. And I have some writing sessions and recording
stuff that I've been just getting into. And there's just
so many schedules to juggle and I had so many
of these things already set up, and I'm only here

(31:19):
for a week. So unfortunately this is my only give
us our new favorite record. Joy, I love you, girls. Hey,
talk about how much good music there was in this episode,
by the way, because the music in this episode was amazing.
Talk about Okay and Brooklyn so delicious with all of
the stuff with Nikki and I love I love their
schemes and Okay, too many notes, I love you one

(31:41):
to three ravens never more, goodbye, goodbye, I love you. Well, yeah,
we have had like a bonkers week. Um yeah, what
can we say about Joy while she's not here? She'll
love that? Oh my god. You know what I loved

(32:02):
Okay because the thing I have written under the satin
bra and all caps is um, I loved Joy chose
to play that scene. I saw her do two things,
like they come in from the rain and Nathan gets undressed,
and she has this very beautiful, like feminine reaction to him,

(32:28):
like she she allows her attraction to take her by
surprise as Haley, and then she makes a distance. Is
this exactly? I saw her realize that for the first time,
because she's been attracted to Nathan as Haley for so long,
but for the first time, her attraction didn't make her uncomfortable,

(32:50):
and she realized she was ready. This time, she had
the power in that moment. And that's a lovely way
to be in control of your sexual ality is when
you feel in total control and you're hungry for it.
You know, no one wants to eat a meal when
they're not hungry. But but if you haven't had anything

(33:11):
all day and you're like, you know what, I'm going
to eat this entire plate of Nathan Great. I was
expecting for the analogy, but I'm with you, I'm just
going to eat that boy. Yeah. But here's my question
was why wasn't Haley cheering at the game? Did I

(33:31):
miss something like? Wasn't she on the squad? I? I
was wondering. Also, I think she just did the Sparkle
Classic with us and then we convinced her to be
on the squad for real in the later seasons. Has
she not cheered at a game? We're gonna need somebody
to weigh in on this. I was just like, I

(33:52):
don't think she did. Yeah, I don't think so. I
think it was just the Sparkle Classic either way, Frankly,
I was mad she wasn't down there with us winking
and smiling and hold hands. Um. It was interesting to
me that that they did decide to use the turn

(34:13):
and wink to you multiple times. I was like, are
are we using it as a flashback? Like what why
do we keep repeating this? But I realized I think
they did it not well as a device to try
to lead the audience on the mystery Brooke is going

(34:34):
to betray Peyton? You know? I mean that, me knowing
what's going to happen never bought the misdirect. Are there
people out there? They did, like, are there people out there?
If you if you guys really believed the Who's going
to betray Peyton? You need to send us a note
because yeah, fans, will you tell us? I mean, Brooks

(34:54):
a good actress shadow hanging out in the My God,
that was so could go out as soon as like,
as soon as that scene came on, I was like, whoa,
that's a choice we made in the makeup trailer. James Brooks,
I'm a grown up and I have a fake I
d eyeshadow. Yeah, don't I look twenty used to wear
a lot of lilac eyeshadow. Maybe it's time for that

(35:16):
to come back. Honestly, I have a lilac jacket that
I like so much, so maybe I should just do
a whole you used to match your makeup with your
clothes all the time. Oh yeah, that was like Kelly
Jefferson and I who y'all know, we've talked about our
wonderful makeup artist on the show that was That was
a Kelly Jefferson. She was like, I think, this girl
who's so into fashion but also is a teenager, I

(35:39):
would think it's really cool to match her eyeshadow too
her outfits. And I was like, I'm obsessed with this.
We're getting the note that it's season three that Hayley
became a cheerleader because Brooke asked her to join the
squad after newcomer Rachel Gettina tries to take over the squad. Hey,
all right, one of our favorite a good team that
helps us with this stuff. You want to talk a

(36:00):
little bit about all those scenes between Chad and James
because they they played so well together. Chad did such
a good job, James did such a good job. It's
like they had the whole will they or won't they
relationship this whole season. So for them to end up
in that space at the River Court in the end,

(36:21):
it was just I was so touched by it because
it ran this really beautiful arc of Nathan trying to
help Lucas rehab them sharing in all of this experience
of Dan and him just being so vicious with them

(36:41):
as the substitute coach, and then that beautiful night shot
on the river court where all of Walmington's lit up
and Nathan says, I never thought during that first game
that I'd be here feeling like this, I'm gonna miss you.
And when he says, you know, because you're a great

(37:02):
basketball player, and they both almost laughed but they don't,
and then he says, and you're my brother cried. I
was like, chili bumps up as you're talking about it. Yeah,
Like I'm actually like teary eyed again. It really watching them,
Lucas and Nathan have that moment, it really got me.

(37:23):
It was beautiful. It's sad to see Lucas's family that
he thought he had falling apart. I mean, he had
a maternal person and a paternal person and they're basically
splitting up and he's having to pick which person he's
going to go with. And so for him to finally
have this new solid family member who loves his best

(37:48):
friend and who cares about him and who stands up
for him to Dan in the locker room, Like Nathan's
fight with Dan and the locker room was it was
so bad, and him hauling Dan on being a coward
and not being a team player back then, and Dan
like being so ashamed in front of all those boys.

(38:11):
Tis like, I'm good, that's fine, I have to leave.
I mean, the that relationship Nathan and Luke was something
that was fun to watch because it's not like, I mean,
at that point were we all hanging out outside of work.
I think by the end of the season, we were
all just like working twenty hour days and going home

(38:34):
and going to sleep. And so Chad James's relationship, the
way they were able to just come to work and
lock into that without they weren't living together at that point.
Uh yeah, It's just they made it look so easy.
Just Okay, we're gonna love each other now and they're
walking talks are really strong. Um. Hailey scene with Chad though,

(38:58):
was for me the saddest scene where she's like, I'm scared,
what do you mean You're not going to be here?
And then she starts listening all this stuff that I
like to do. She's like, who's gonna go thrift store
shopping with me and who's gonna go get dumb records?
And I'm just like Hi, It's like hill, Yeah, I mean,

(39:21):
I still don't understand Lucas moving away. I don't know
why that was part of like I always think there's
like a double reason why they do stuff. Was it
because Chad was doing a movie? They knew he was
doing a movie, and they knew they couldn't bring him
back right away? I don't really know, but I think
he is back right away. I really think that they

(39:44):
but that they used that. You know, Haley and Nathan
getting married was a cliffhanger. Lucas going away with Keith
was a cliffhanger. By the way, when you said, you know,
inquiring minds want to know what's going to happen with
this married teenage couple, and are minds want to know
who left a serial killer envelope on Peyton's door? That's right?

(40:07):
I was like, what is that? Who left that? And guys,
I really don't remember? And so I think that they
wanted with every kind of couplet, they wanted us to
have these cliff hairs. Dan's having a heart attack, Deb
finds him, Karen and Deb have been at the game together.
And that's so lay because when we first see them,

(40:27):
we don't know that Dan has told Deb this story
of I didn't want me with you, I was leaving
you to go back to Karen, and Deb still chooses
to sit with Karen at the game that Dan is coaching.
That is some deep drama in a small town. Well,
and I almost feel like because him saying that to her,

(40:49):
you know, she realizes that she's been just as screwed
over by him as Karen was. Well, yeah, because I
mean she talks about the first time she him. How
many times have there been? Do we think? I don't know?
Almost got me? So she talks out the first time

(41:10):
she tried to leave him, and then she gets like
suckered back into it and that sinking feeling of knowing
I was almost out of this, but I came back
because I thought you really loved me. And now you're
telling me this whole time I was pick number two,
Like I could have gone off without feeling guilty before.

(41:30):
It's gross. It is really Yeah, Well, she gets her,
she gets her payback. With the keith of it all.
Why yeah, I still I stand by it. We got robbed.
I wanted to see Barbara and Craig schefferd make out
so bad because there was so much chemistry. Do you
think it's like a director's cut somewhere. We gotta ask

(41:52):
Barb like did they actually shoot a love scene? Did
it not make it? Because remember our scripts were so long,
you guys, we would shoot so much stuff that would
get cut down. I get so pissed. I did a
whole storyline once. There's an episode in season two I
think that I'm not in because I shot an entire

(42:14):
like storyline that was separate from everyone else about me
going to hang out with this foster kid. And I
remember episode it wasn't in. I'm like, we worked for
days on this, but it was just because we didn't
have any like well, we just we didn't have time.
That was always the thing. We didn't have time. I
remember when we did the in season three, the school
shooting episode, and I got to shoot this amazing monologue

(42:38):
just having a meltdown about you know what all these
news reporters were doing when like my best friend was
inside and how this was the worst day of our lives,
and like they were just trying to get sound bites
and they were like, yeah, we loved it. We didn't
have time, so they put it on the extra scenes
on the DVD at the end of the season. I
was like, cool, I'm really glad, I really glad. I'm

(43:01):
prepared for that, and just left my whole heart on
the floor. Though for like streaming services, do they have
extra scenes like that we used to have on the DVDs?
Is that a thing? Oh my god, I don't I
don't know either. I don't know how it could be,
Like do you have to own the DVD in order
to get all that bonus footage. Let's talk about Barry

(43:21):
a little bit, because by the scene that he has
when Luke comes to see him, it's clear that like
he's having more trouble than Luke is having. Luke's doing
all the right things. He's going around, he's saying goodbye
to everyone, he's being an adult, you know, or is
as much adult as he can be, and he's trying
to right all the wrongs. And you see this coach

(43:44):
who doesn't have any children of his own, and who
knows what this boy is going through and has watched
his trajectory go from like smiling real big, like You're
gonna be great. Take care of Keith Man. I love you, guys.
We find out that Keith has like gone to sit
with Whitey after every single home game win or lose,
when when Chad leans in and hugs him and we

(44:07):
see his face just crack over Chad's shoulder and then
he has to regroup as Chad pulls back out. They
were so good together. Yeah, and Barry, I mean, what
a force like man. Now as an adult, I'm like, God,
I wish I'd just gone to work on all the

(44:27):
days Barry was working and I was. He was. He
was like a champion, like a nationally ranked champion in
like the Jeopardy game that they play in Bars, the
trivia game. I remember that I was there for some
of those nights. The other thing I noticed, too, is
that Barry Corbin has the most beautiful hands on the planet.

(44:50):
Did you see him holding the basketball? And he's got
these like angelic soft looking hands he does, which doesn't
make any sense because he's been like a ranch guy
kind of life. What is that, Mike? What does he do?
Does he go home at night and like put basselin
on him and stick him in socks? What if Barry
got manicures on a regular basis. That would be fun.

(45:12):
I want Barry Corbin to become a TikTok influencer so badly,
just like teach us stuff, Barry, how do we take
care of our of our hands and horses? Hands and
horses with Barry hands and horses done? Um? Okay with
it's the new. It's the new, Bob Ross and I'm
so ready for um. You know what was fun to um?

(45:36):
Speaking of the world of basketball on our show, I
got so geeked to see Brendan Kurs. Oh that's everyone
is guys. Brendan Kersh are sweet sweet basketball coordinator who
had been a basketball coach, who's just the loveliest man,
played the like you know, locker room medic in this episode,

(46:00):
and Brendan was with us through the entire course of
our show. One of James's best friends, Brendan kersh and
Lisa Goldstein, who played Millicent in the later seasons, ended
up getting married. Like isn't it crazy? Like such, he's
such a such a good suite, just like one Tree

(46:21):
Hill guy, I babysat his daughter for like five years.
Oh my god, I love that man. And I forgot.
This was his first time on camera and it was
so fun to see him, and he, by the way,
was a good actor. He did a good job. Like
I was like, oh my god, Brendan Kersh can act.
Could have heard more of this. As the seasons went on,

(46:45):
we got to to put more and more of our
own personal experiences into the show, and I think by
the time we reached this episode, we were so sick
of just shaking our pom poms at the games and
just going yeah, cool, oh yeah. The chance that we
were doing were real chance that I was doing in
high school at Park View, And so when I I

(47:08):
totally forgot that that we were doing like real cheers
that I knew that, I was like, guys, if we
do this, And so as we're doing like, let's go
Ravens in this episode, in my mind, I'm like, let's
go Patriots, And then when we say Ravens, I'm used,
I'm just like, hold on a second, my reality is
melding here. Um. But it was cool that we could

(47:31):
just like say, what are we supposed to be doing here? Oh?
I know, let's just do this. It's super easy, super fast,
and and to have two different high schools to claim.
The Other thing that was really weird for me is
that Lucas missing the shot is exactly what happened in
our state championship game at Parkfet High School in football
my senior year. We went to States. We had been

(47:55):
undefeated for years, like all four years of high school,
totally undefeated. We go in the championship game is on
a college field where the goal posts are just a
little bit narrower than they are in a high school field,
and it came down to a field goal. One point
is all we needed, and this sweet, sweet boy who

(48:15):
shall remain nameless, was our kicker, and the ball hit
the goal post the same way that Lucas's shot hits
the rim there and knowing that that kid just wants
to crawl into a hole and die, and so I
ran across the field and kissed him, um, which is

(48:36):
usually how I fixed things. But no one kissed Lucas. No,
he's just no. He had to go to the locker
room and get yelled at by day. I appreciate that
neither Brook or Peyton felt it was their responsibility. You know,
Nathan taps him on the shoulder, they're there, pal, and

(48:56):
everyone just lets him sit on the floor of the gym. Yeah,
and you you you have. I got plans tonight. I'm
so sorry. She's like, I'm getting married tonight. Everyone thinks
I've been talking about sex this whole time, but I'm
getting married. That is nuts. Did you know anybody that
was married super young like that? Like we had a

(49:18):
lot of chicks have babies in high school. That was
really common, but nobody. I don't think anybody was married.
She carried a duffel bag to Yeah, the duffel bag.
I was like, where are they going? Are they eloping?
Are they going to Vegas? Like, what's happening. I'm just
gonna wrap this little dress up, put a duffel bag.
No one will know. I'm gone. Where are her parents? Well?

(49:39):
Do you remember that in later seasons? Maybe it's in
season two, there's like flashbacks to their wedding and you
find out their parents. Oh my god, her parents were
there because they had to give them permission. So here's
what's crazy. I didn't I didn't remember almost any of
this episode, aside from are like winking, wink your face,

(50:01):
Like I forgot that that you know we did the
misdirect and that we plotted the whole thing to send
Nikki across, Like I have a sense memory of that.
And also, yeah, but we used to go drinking there,
so I could have it could have been any Thursday night,
Like I don't know that we were on set, but yeah,
I really remember, I think because we were all so like,

(50:26):
oh my god, they're getting married. I remember so much
of the Nathan and Haley marriage storyline. I don't remember
any of my own. Yeah, it is bonkers to me
that we went with it and like stuck with it
for years and then it worked, like it truly worked
and sent a really strange expectation for the rest of

(50:48):
the country of like, girl just made that kid, It'll
be fine. But then I guess death must have signed
the paperwork too, right, I don't know, because she went
to that basketball game knowing that Nathan was be married
after the basketball game and that she was going to
go burn Dan stuff and have sex with Keith. Like
that's a whole bag of weird. It's a lot that

(51:09):
I'm gonna have trouble analyzing. Also, I just want to
keep going back to our glancing at each other. How
came us glancing at each other isn't a meme yet,
Like I just feel like I need that to be
the meme that we are the gift or whatever the
kids call it. Are there gifts? I feel like we
deserve gifts of us just looking at each other. Yeah,
I also feel like we need we need more like

(51:33):
gift stickers like an Instagram. Where are all the gifts
of our show? And those little stickers? So I don't know,
you know what I mean? Crafts and crafts, young technologically
brilliant listeners, Can you help us solve this mystery? The
greatest line of the whole show, besides the one about
Karen being staggering, you know what it is. I know

(51:54):
what it is Karen saying the line, and I didn't
remember where it came from because it became such a
thing in our show that it was ubiquitous. It was
who we were. And to see them Karen and tears,
not wanting to say goodbye to her son and saying
there is only one tree hill and it's your Oh oh,

(52:20):
even I was so. I was so just like shot
in the heart by it. I took my notes and
I capitalized the words that she really emphasized with her intonation.
One and home and I was like, man, this is
well and it's the thing that like people bring us,

(52:41):
you know, things to sign at conventions, and that is
always there. And it was really like the first time
the title of our show made sense. Um, we've done.
Everyone's like one tree Hill. What Everyone's like, why is it?
They're like, if we're going to wrap this up, we've
got to make sense of this. Um. But yes, it

(53:03):
is an iconic line from the show, amongst a ton
of other iconic material in this episode. Um. You know,
if it had ended here, it could it would have
been Okay. I'm so glad it didn't. Um. But I
feel like we were put in a really like healthy
spot that it wasn't like trauma. So many of our

(53:25):
cliffhangers in later seasons were all about trauma, and the
cliffhangers here were just really about feelings and well, I
guess Dan's going through some trauma but we don't really care. Yeah,
it feels like karmac retribution on Dan's part. Fine, fine,
I don't care. Let him Dan, Dan. Hey, do we
have any listener questions hit us? I think we do. Um. Oh, man, girl,

(53:52):
this is this is savage. Christine, what should trying to
say here, what was your favorite and least favorite? It's
season one style, can I say everything? No, girl, you
rocked a halter top. You in a halter top was deadly. Yeah,
you know what I did like Actually, now that, now
that I'm thinking about it, the Night of the Boy

(54:13):
Toy auction brooks little like sixties super outfit. I loved that,
but like the super low rise Hawaiian print skirts that
have nothing to do with actual Hawaii, and like bad
tank tops, God just bury them, plase or burn them strift.
It was a really difficult thing to navigate. I have

(54:35):
a very long torso it's an incredibly long You're no,
you're you're not doing yourself very kindly. You are just
very long. You are like a long, lean, elegant person.
My belly button doesn't sit where other people's belly button sits,
So when you have low rise things on the shirt

(54:56):
covers the belly button, then all you see is it's
just like strip a lash and it's not cute. And
every other girl had cute little belly buttons with their
little piercings and things hanging out. Oh god, mid just
are so hard. We're never going back to that right. No, no, no,
just although I did, I did definitely see some things

(55:18):
hitting the inner webs about how like fashion shows now
that things are back from COVID, Like people are doing
low right there, like the nineties are back and I'm like,
not for me or two thousand four or whatever they are. No,
we had those Rock and Republic genes and they were
so low. But that's the waist is not what held

(55:41):
the pant up. It's that the thighs were so tight
that the butt, the but part could be as like
open and weekly as possible. It's just the thighs held
everything up. It was a rough time, guys. It's it's
a it's a no for me. Yeah, I mean okay,
so your favorite was the sixties? What did you like?
What did you like for Peyton? Obviously where we know

(56:02):
you're not a fan of the Geese, there was a
lot of sorting out with Peyton. I think in the
season two I just wear thermal shirts and baby T
shirts the entire season, which is not my favorite thing either. Um. Yeah,
I was uncomfortable so much on this show until Carol

(56:22):
showed up in what season four? Um, I think that's yeah,
I kind of I always too, because I'm not good
at fashion in real life. I was so hesitant to
give my opinion on anything because it was like, well,
I don't know, like I don't know, you guys tell
me what I should be wearing. And as I've gotten older,
I've learned that that's not a great idea unless it's

(56:44):
you putting me in a power suit, like you're the
only person addressed my body with its long, weird doors. Okay, yeah,
I mean I liked fashion on other people. Joy had
so many good looks, like her clothes. I honestly, Haley's
clothes were I know, they put her in that stupid hat,
they made up for it. Mostly her clothes were the best. Yeah.

(57:07):
She had that pretty and pink moment with the party
in Nathan's apartment and the dinner party with Nathan's family
was super cute. And her little foxy juicy seen this
episode well, and that cute like tank top peeking out
from that wide yeah last episode. I loved that. I'd
wear that now. Yeah, I'm telling she's a time traveler.

(57:31):
Yeah she really know all right, Thanks Christine for pointing
out our weaknesses. I appreciate you. We got another question
from page. She says, what was your schedule like when filming?
In between filming? Did you have a break between seasons
and what did you do for fun during that time? Um? Yeah,

(57:51):
we had a hiatus after every year, and so if
this aired in May, that means we would have shot
it in March ish April, March April. Yeah, because we
didn't have a long lead time, we would always go
till the end of April. So we ended filming not
knowing if we were going to be picked up because
they don't normally pick you up until end of May,

(58:13):
beginning of June, you know, Like, but then you've got
to be back at work July t which I know
because it was always two days after pay. So we
ended not really knowing what was going to happen. And
it's like, well do I go and try to book
a job, Like what do I do? What do you
do this summer after season one? Well, it's so hard

(58:33):
to try to book a job because most jobs won't
take you because your TV show has a thing called
first position, meaning they're the ones who basically own you.
And so if you get another job and then your
TV show gets picked up, then the job you're working
on is just screwed. So it was really hard. It

(58:57):
was really hard to find jobs that would fit in
that tiny hiatus window of May June because nothing, nothing
gets done before July ninth, because it's the fourth of
July in the US, So you had to kind of
try to find something that would fit in there. And
so yeah, I was like running around, you know, trying

(59:18):
to work on little movies and learn stuff. And it
definitely took me a couple of years, Like like you
were saying with feedback with fashion, it took me a
couple of years to be like, oh, yeah, I probably
shouldn't go do a job just because it shoots in
my hiatus. If the script, girl, I'm not actually gonna
learn anything there. But I was like, you know, twenty
and I didn't know anything. So I made some really

(59:40):
great movies and some that were not so great. But
that's just part of the Yeah, I mean, that was
the summer after Season one, I went and did my
very first movie with Jason Ritter and Autumn Research and
Beth Grant and Alison Janny and Cheryl Hines. Incredible was
like summer camp and it was such an easy, chill

(01:00:03):
set and our set had been so spastic that I
was just like, what the heck is this? And like,
Jason was number one on the call sheet on that movie,
A perfect human. He's a perfect human, and he was
such a good leader, and I I felt like I
learned a lot from him just about like empathy on

(01:00:26):
set and not knowing what everyone's going through and making
everything real light, like he keeps stuff light, but he's
still really caring. And so that was a perfect person
for me to work with after the chaos of One
Tree Hole because it really was like bananas on our set,
and that was a safe place to land. Plus I
went to Tennessee where a drink moonshine for the first time.

(01:00:49):
That was pretty cool. And we would send karaoke at
the Papa top Um. So I felt like I picked
those hiatus jobs just based on where they were, mean,
because it was like New Orleans. You and I both
did that. We both did New Orleans. We live in
New Orleans for the summer. Yeah, I was like, I
want to go there by done um, So yeah, it

(01:01:11):
was you know, I think it was important for us
to take breaks because we were shooting a show about
school and we were shooting it kind of during like
school year, and then we'd get our summers off, and
so I still felt like I was in high school
until we were what we were following the same cycle.

(01:01:32):
By the way, I still kind of followed that cycle,
like I do nothing. It's actually so funny. I remember
Joy and I once we were like sitting around talking
one night. We were like, hasn't been kind of weird?
Do you think? Do you think are we like a
little emotionally stunted because we were basically in high school
til we were yes, yes, does it? Does it hold

(01:01:55):
you back? And I was like, I don't know, maybe
that's why we feel young and foxy and fabulous, Like
maybe it's a positive thing. But yeah, it was very
weird to to sort of repeat high school for the
decade after high school. I mean, it's crazy. I tried
to explain. I've got all these people helping me with
the renovation here, Like there's house painters and there's like

(01:02:17):
carpenters and things, and they're all twenty five, and I
think like, hey man, we're peers. And then I realized
I'm the old lady. They're like, hey, you're like my
mom's age, and I'm just cool, tell me more kids.
You're like, Wow, Mom's age, Mom's and I are hanging out.

(01:02:37):
You guys like jin Blossoms. What baby? You want to
spin a wheel? I want to get you to bed.
I've been working so hard. I'm so proud of you
than I mean same. I just wish I had a

(01:02:57):
little time off and I could come help you. Lasyalo
all right, wheel most likely to win the Nobel Peace Prize,
I mean probably you. You're the advocate. So Fie is like,
is there a problem? I'm here to solve it? Check
out the hook while my DJ disolves it. Oh my god, dear,

(01:03:20):
I know you are a problem solver, and you are
tenacious and infatiguable, and you have already made such a
difference in so many people's lives. I think that's kind
of like a no DA. So you don't get to
fight me on that. That's a big duh. But you
get to pick the person the character in the show.

(01:03:41):
H gosh. I'm just trying to sit here and swallow
you more than anybody. I was wearing my I'm a
Voter shirt yesterday. Today I'm wearing my Tyler Hilton's shirt, Like, honestly,
what would I do with that our cast to give
me clothes. I love it. I love it. The urch
is so good. Um gosh, a character on our show.

(01:04:05):
I would most likely win the Nobel Peace Prize. I mean,
is it weird that Karen comes to mind? Like, I
don't know why. I'm just like she was the most
together person who was doing things like gentle Like in
the grown up years, was there anybody doing anything like
political or advocacy. We didn't really get into politics. I mean,

(01:04:29):
mouth in the grown up years becomes a journal. Okay,
so probably always big mouth. It's always mouth, but that's
because he's perfect, like the rest of us are a mess.
But you know he would he would probably be here.
I love it. He would like he would tell some
crazy story. He'd win a Pulitzer, and then he'd win
a Nobel Peace Prize and all would be right to

(01:04:50):
cover some like crazy injustice, shine a light on it. Okay,
I'm into that, don't you think, set Um. I'm excited
to come back for season two. I'm gonna level with you,
We're gonna have to address my hair in season two
because I burnt it all off the summer between one
and two. So once I get over that hurdle. It's

(01:05:11):
an emotional block for me. Um, I can't wait to
get into it because season two is bonkers. It's funny.
I don't remember season two because we were having a
really good time. Um, I love you so much. I
want you to go get some rest. I want all
of you to rest up, because season two is going
to be a banger. Episode one is the desperate Kingdom

(01:05:33):
of Love. God. That's okay, let's get desperate. Friends, We
love you. We'll get desperate, but in a fun way. Hey,
