mixed bag. Really. Oh yeah, we all have our you know,
we've got our We got our and I don't even
some of my my my minus says, I've come turned
out to be pluses. And I always like to I

(04:27):
always like to try and you know, flip it a
little bit and be like, well, I like that. Some
some things are negative, but you know it can lead
you to positive stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
So I've thought that too, you know, as a lifelong
sufferer of anxiety, I was always like hated that about
myself because it is crippling at times.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah, but not like but you know what, that makes
me a very.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
Sensitive person who stops and thinks about things, and yeah,
thinks about other people's feelings. And you know, I'm just
I'm kind of a deep thinker, a cerebral thinker, and
so that in that sense, the anxiety is positive. I'm
well for I'm very well prepared for all of my.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Things, right exactly. There are great things about being an
anxious individual. Sleeping is probably not one of them.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
But uh, hey, no sleep is sleep is the best.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
No sleep is sleep is my that is my Like, oh,

Speaker 1 (08:51):
Such a good one. Welcome back to how Rude tan
Rito's I'm Andrea Barber and I'm Jodie Sweeten, and today
we're discussing season three, episode two, called Back to School Blues.
It originally aired on September twenty ninth, nineteen eighty nine
and it goes a little something like this. DJ goes

(09:11):
to her first day of junior high and figures out
that it's much different than elementary school. When the older
popular girls tease her, she tries to change herself, but
it doesn't turn out the way she wants it to.
Oh so relatable, Oh so relatable.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
From middle junior high. Yeah, yeah, junior high, middle school
this yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Oh, it's big milestones here, big milestones for sure. It
was directed by Billy Fausta Coffee Coffee, coffee right, and
written by Jeff Franklin. Yay, we have some great guest
stars this week. We have Lucy Lee Flippin as the
teacher miss Agbobbian Is that her real name?

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Not obviously miss Agbobbyan, but Lucy Lee Flippin'.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
I don't know if that's a stage name, we're a
real name, but it's great either way.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
I'm in And she was.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
She's best known as the school teacher Eliza Jane Wilder
on Little House in the Prairie. Ah, yes, that's yes,
I'm like, she looks kind of familiar.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Not that I wait, she played Eliza Jane Wilder. Yeah,
the teacher see Leaflippin played Eliza Jane Wilder. Yeah, a
lot of three names. And we have another one coming
up too.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
Oh we do, oh yeah, we do. Oh yes, very
exciting and Lucy Lee was also known as Frank Castlebury
in the TV show Flow, which was a spin off
of the sitcom Alice. Next, we have Anne Marie McAvoy
as the legendary Kathy Santoni.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
We finally meet Kathy Santoni and put a face to
the name we have we met Kathy at this point,
she has been merely a mention.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
We've talked about her. Remember she kind of stole when
Jonathan Brandis, well, yeah, yeah, she DJ. Then he went
for Kathy Santoni. We've talked about her a few times.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
She spent She's sort of the like, not the nemesis,
because she's not like a mean girl per se, but
she's just like she's just kind of the thorn in
like DJ and Kimmy's side. I feel like she's like
the like the girl who's becoming popular and it's like.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Oh yeah, she's the antithesis of right, DJ and Kimmy.
She's like she's popular, she's developed, she's like, right, the
it girl now and it's very intimidating, but oh, I
love it.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
This is her first of four episodes of Full House. Uh.
And she was also in Children of the Corn. Oh.
I don't know if you knew that.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I did not, but I do love that movie.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Mm hmm. Next we have Shonda Whipple as mean girl Colleen,
and she's known for a gazillion guest appearances. She was
a quintessential child star. Right, She's in Highway to Heaven,
Punky Brewsters, Small Wonder Kids Incorporated, Who's the Boss, and
Growing Pains, all of.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
The best, all of the best, like, oh, love it.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
And she also appeared in the movie Purple People Eater
nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
I don't that's a classic.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
It's just hey, we we watch it. We rewatch it
every every Christmas. I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, it's yeah, it is a huge tradition in my family,
The Purple People Eater.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
That's almost as good as a Skateboard Kid two, which
was we still have to watch that.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
And oh my god, Skateboard Kid too. Skateboard it was
Skateboard Kid two.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
That's the movie I did when I was fifteen. Right,
it's the worst. It's the worst.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Well, it was worse than Skateboy Kid one.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
That's it was definitely worse than that. But it was
just like bad special effects super cheese. Anyways, I'm getting off.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Okay, Well, well that's gonna be I feel like that's uh,
that's gonna be a minis at some point. Anyway, it's
gotta be gotta be.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah. And then last, but certainly not least, we have
Chantell Stebbins as Susan, also known for the mini series
I know, my first name is Stephen and a ghost ship.
I think she must be the friend at the end,
the where DJ finds some decent friends, because I'm like, yeah, Susan,

(13:08):
I don't know who Susan is. It must be the
one of the nice.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Girls, Yeah, Susan, and the other one at the end, and.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
The other one, the other one that doesn't speak so
she didn't get paid as much.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Well she's background so she can't speak right right, not aloud? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Okay, So we open with our teaser. In the living room,
Jesse is counting for a game of hide and seek
on the couch and Michelle creeps out from behind the
couch and says, here I am Jesse. Picks Michelle up
and tells her that's not how you play the game.
He explains the game and asks Michelle capiche. We got

(13:41):
our very first capiche, ladies, ze.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
First, I thought we had it in the last season.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Did we have one? I don't know, we've had a
had Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Yeah, because the capiche started entering the picture around the
time that John went from Elvis to Sinatra.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Oh really that?

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah? The capeche, I feel like, came in around season
two when we started leaning more into the rat pack thing. Okay,
also evidenced by the fabulous suspenders and silk shirts in
this episode.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
I noticed that he definitely has a little shift in
his wardrobe.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Is we're heading more towards rat pack? We've we've started
as rock or Jesse. Season two was a little kind
of moving out of that, and now we're fully into suspenders,
wingtips and silk shirts.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Okay, I'm here for it. I like it. I'm here
And this is how I learned what the word capiche means.
Like it's this is full house is educational. It is
educationally it has taught us so many lessons and.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Reading Rainbow sasame Street full House.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
That you know what. That is not even debatable. That
is a fact.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
So Jesse proposes that they play again, and this time
he'll be the one who hides. Michelle counts as Jesse
leaves to hide, she counts to five before saying again,
here I am. Jesse pops out from behind the couch,
looking disappointed, and Michelle tells him I win again, capiche,
and Jesse responds capiche and tackles her on the couch.

(15:14):
Oh so cute.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
I didn't know I was a capeche. I wonder where.
I mean, I know where it came from, but like,
was it a Is it like a thing that John
said often or was it just a new we're trying
out some new uh something and have mercy alternative? Yeah,
I wonder.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
My gut feeling is that it's a John. But I
don't know why I feel that way.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Well, because it's a very because it's a John, because
we know John, and because we know that if something
made it into the script and stuck around that it
was probably something that he was like I'm going to
say this, like.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Yeah, it doesn't matter, definitely doesn't.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Maybe his idea, Yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Let's let's that's our consensus is that this originated with John, and.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
It originated with John, and all I care about is
the suspender right right, and he's super tan. So you
can tell this is early beginning part of the season,
after we've all come back from summer.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Well in Hawaii, Like you are also dang tan because
this was the episode after Hawaii, and so I'm like,
they really.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Well, but Hawaii was season two.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
We no, no, no, no no, that was the last episode
that was That's right, first of season. Yeah, so I
feel like I don't know when you guys went to
Hawaii or when we went to Hawaii, but yeah, your
Hawaiian tans are definitely still definitely full in effect here.
And then there's Me Pale Me, who walks in and whatever.
So next we are in the girls room. DJ is

(16:36):
fixing her hair and Steph says DJ, if it's not
ready by now, put on a hat. DJ explains that
it's her first day of junior high school and she
wants to look perfect. After fiddling it with it some more,
she gets her hair just right. She has Steph help
her spray her hair do with two cans of hair spray.

(16:57):
Steph pokes the hair and admits very natural. Yeah, what
were okay, what were you using? It? Was it? Was
it hairspray or was it?

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Like no, I think it was just it was like, uh,
water vapor, just water vapor.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
So it looks like spray, Yeah, like a spray eavy
on misted sort of things. So it looks like hairspray,
but you're not actually just inhaling two cans of hairspray.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Okay, good, because I got worried for your for your
lungs for a minute. There.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
No, we're not. We're not inhaling hairspray.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Okay. Good. So DJ is excited to finally go to
a school without a sandbox. Stephanie asks how can she
be so happy if they will no longer be attending
school together. DJ explains that she is a young adult
and Stephanie is a child, so starting now they're going
to be living different lives. Stuff points out that they

(17:45):
don't even live in separate rooms.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
She's the voice of reason. You can't really is like
I don't, Yeah, you can't. We're not living very separate lives.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
You cannot argue with Stephanie's reason because she's just she
has the best comebacks. So Stuff puts her arm around
DJ and begs her to stay at school with her.
She needs a big sister to stick up for her.
What if someone calls her a lameoid zombie dog?

Speaker 2 (18:10):
That would be horrific.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
That's the worst possible thing that could happen to a
second grader, right.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
I was like, wait, did I make that upward? Did
someone write that? I want to true someone wrote it,
but it was a strange I was like, wow, I
thought that too.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
I was like, I wonder, I wonder if Jody, like
not not that you would add lib at that age,
but like, yeah, it sounded like maybe it came from you.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
It was it was written up. I guess it was
written okay.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
So DJ says she didn't have a big sister to
stand up for her, and she was fine. Steph says
that when she gets to junior high, DJ will be
in high school, and when she finally gets to high school,
DJ will be in college. And then when she gets
to college, DJ will be working at McDonald's. Hey, don't
knock it. I've got, yeah, my seventeen year olds looking

(18:57):
for a job right now. So I'm like, don't knock it.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
You know, Hey, jobs are important, everybody. We all need
jobs of varying degrees.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Absolutely not knocking that sure. So next we're in the
living room. Joey's on the phone with a client while pacing,
and Jesse trails behind him, listening attentively.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
With more suspenders on, more suspenders.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
I like this look. I really like this.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Low suspenders and that shirt. You can see the silk
it is. It is still probably not great for sweating in,
but it's lovely.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
I'm sure he was sweating profusely under those hot lights.
But hey, you know what, the whole look worked. It
worked for me anyways. So Joey conveys his and Jesse's
excitement to the client and their eagerness to share their ideas,
while Jesse continues grabbing the phone from him and repeating
exactly what Joey said, just adding the word extremely before it.

(19:56):
The doorbell rings and Joey says to Jesse, you get
the door, don't worry, I'll say everything twice. Jesse runs
to the door and it's Becky. Jessegay, Hey, thank goodness
for Beckye. Jesse knows that she's there because she couldn't
get through the day without a good morning kiss. Becky
tells him she's there because Danny needs a ride to work,

(20:16):
but as long as she's there and they kiss. Kimmy
enters through the front door, sees the kiss and asks
this early, I hope you brushed.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Thank you, Kimmy. Thank you. They yeah, you walked in.
You're like, excuse me, you're blocking the door with your
making out again.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
Yes, like normally I would say, Jane, Kimmy, that was rude,
but no, they served this, Kimmy.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
This was yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
I've also noticed that my hair is slightly less offensive
than season two.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
It has deflated considerable.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
It's deflated. I've got like a little the little half up. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yeah, it definitely looks more like it's actually growing out
of your head.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
Yes, it doesn't look like a wig anymore. It looks
like real hair. It's got like that wavness to it. Yeah,
I mean it's not it looks great. It's not my
best hair, but it's way better than season two.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
It's I don't know, the bar at the bar is
pretty low.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
I don't know what the hell happened to.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
Your air in season two, but it was it was
a thing.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
It was this gigantic well she's you know, she's going
to junior high. Now, she's got to have better hair.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, yeah, you can't, ye, you can't walk in with
hair like that.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
She in no way, she wouldn't last a day with that.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Fit in the door. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
So Jesse proposes that this is the year that maybe
dj should pick Kimmy up on the way to school instead,
to which Kimmy responds, no, can do. My dad eats
his breakfast in his underwear, and that's not you know.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Or things we know about the Gibblers.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Well makes sense to me, of course he eats in
his underwear. Why get dressed.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
They've got a pet ostrich. The underwear eating breakfast is
not the weirdest thing that they do.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
This is the least concerning thing about the Ghibblers, right.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
So Joey finishes up his phone call and Jesse runs
up to him, asking what happened. Joey excitedly breaks the news,
explaining that they are going to be meeting up with
the client and pitching the idea over a game of golf.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
We know how excited Joey is about golf from Hawaii.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's right. Oh I forgot about that
this is a good through line. Yeah, he's still still
into golf, but Jesse is not. Jesse immediately declines this idea,
saying golf is a game for little ladies. Becky buttson,
I play golf, and Jesse quickly adds, oh and hot
young babes, which is funny because Laurie really does love golf.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
H Lori and Dave are both very big golfers.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Yeah, so Joey walks over, laughing to himself, and Jesse
asks what Joey says? You can't play golf, can you?
Joey and Jesse hit each other back and forth, fighting
about whether or not Jesse he can play golf. Jesse
gets up and demonstrates himself playing golf and describes a
game of miniature golf, the best kind of golf, that is.

(23:09):
You know, why bother with the real thing?

Speaker 2 (23:12):
When you come any distance, I need wind mills, yes.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Wind mills. Clown mouths. Yeah, like bridges, and the clown
mouths are a little freaky, but well okay, but wind mills,
wind mills, wind mills, yeah, and those little mazes. You
know how you have to get through the maids. Oh,
it's as.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Volcano love it.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
So Danny cheerfully walks into the room, shouting, girls, I
have your lunches, and DJ responds, Dad, we're right behind you.
Kimmy tells mister Tanner to wake up. In junior high,
the cool kids buy their lunch.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Oh, yes, I remember this transition. This hasn'tened then. I'm
pretty sure that they just don't eat lunch at all. No,
did you eat? Yeah? I had a Snickers And you're like, what.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Why don't they eat?

Speaker 2 (23:55):
That starts somewhere in like junior all of a sudden
cool for some reason. Eating around other people is one
of those embarrassing human things that you do where people
are like, no, you can't, like it looks weird when
you eat, and you're like, but you're okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
But then you have to go six or seven hours
without eating, like like I need that.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Just yapping away at each other anyway, So they yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
They don't care, but yeah, this is true. So I
wonder if they're just pocketing the lunch money.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Mm see probably, But my kids don't have It's like
they have a little account at school. Yeah, that's how
mine work to get like free lunch stuff. Now.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's right, because all the kids get Yeah. Anyway, okay, anyways, tangent, tangent. So,
Kimmy tells mister t if you want to be a
good dad, give her a bag of cash. Danny gives
DJ some money for lunch and a little extra money
to make some new friends.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
I feel like that money went straight to Kimmy for sure. Yeah.
She's like, I mean, since your dad gave them out,
I'll take it.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
I'll take it right. She's hey, she has a she
has an ostrich to feed, so she needs a little extra.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Cash a lot. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Becky tells DJ and Kimmy that junior high is when
she got her first boyfriend, her first slow dance, and
her first slow kiss. Danny gives Becky a warning look,
and she adds, oh, and then I woke up and
it was all a dream. That seems young to me.
I mean, granted I'm a little prudish, but I'm like, really,
junior highs when you get your first boyfriend kiss. Oh.

(25:28):
I was a late bloomer.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
I was like eighth grade.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Oh yeah, yeah, I know a lot.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
That's my Yeah, I think I have my Yeah, I
think I had my first kiss in seventh grade. Oh wow,
behind the art room.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Oh really? Yeah? So wait, your first kiss wasn't on
Full House. Well besides that.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
I don't count that because that is not like that
was like you know what I mean, like stage kiss
was yeah, okay, like an actual the one that counted.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
So my then okay, so my first kiss was on
Full House. But if we're not counting that, yeah, I
feel so I remember my first kiss. I think I
was fifteen, so I was late. I mean I was
already well into high school. I was a late bloomer.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
But whatever, that's okay, that's fine, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Look at me now, uh okay, where am I DJing?

Speaker 2 (26:16):
What's happening?

Speaker 1 (26:17):
What is happening? I'm so distracted now thinking about my first.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Cais is what happens when we go away for a
few weeks and then all of a sudden we come back.
We're like, how do we do this again?

Speaker 1 (26:24):
How do we podcast again?

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Right?

Speaker 1 (26:27):
So, DJ and Kimmy begin to leave when Michelle walks
in and runs after them, yelling for them to wait
for her.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
I go to.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Joey runs up to Michelle to remind her that she
doesn't start nursery school until next year. Stephanie announces to
the family, well, I'm going now the only Tanner left
in my school. Her father tries to interrupt, but she
keeps going, no, really, it's a beautiful thing. Why is
Steph suddenly like a forty year old?

Speaker 2 (26:58):
You know she always is. She's got this weird little
side of her. She's like, no, please, it's fine. I've
got it myself. Yeah, she's so dramatic. You can get up. Yeah,
very dramatic.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Danny knows that she's scared, but he assures her that
everything's going to be fine. Steph asks, so I shouldn't
even bother with the phony cough. Steph leaves and everyone
gives her words of encouragement. As she goes to open
the door. She turns back one more time and repeats
the only Tanner and sighs before exiting. Dramatic, dramatic, beautiful performance.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
Joy, ste You'll be fine.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
Michelle looks at the adults and says, well, now what,
and they all shrug in response. Next, we are at
the Joy Here we go. Oh, I just I love
this so much. DJ is looking over her schedule as
a group of popular girls bump into her, saying look out,
scrub these new kids are so tiny, they're embryonic. They

(28:00):
laugh as they walk away.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
It was like this was like early Euphoria though with
the outfits. Oh yeah, it was like who wears stuff
like this in middle school? Anyway? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (28:09):
No, it was the looks.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
Yeah, it was like the Euphoria high school alvids where
you're like, who what is Who's wearing this?

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Who wears that to school every day?

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Right?

Speaker 1 (28:19):
It worked though, you know, it works, totally worked.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Kimmy spots DJ in the crowd and DJ grabs her tight,
don't ever leave my side again. A tall boy with
a mustache walks past, and DJ points at him, saying,
that kid has a mustache.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
It is the difference in junior high. It's there, the
wide range. It's like seventh to ninth grade. It's you
you don't know what you're gonna get. Yeah, there's a
there's a six foot tall one. There's a kid that
still looks like he's in fourth grade. There's a girl
that looks like she could be teaching the class. There's
a one that's got it picked out like it's just
they're all over the map, nobody, and they're all a mess. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yes, junior high is that time period where you just
can't predict when you're gonna hit puberty.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
When you're get right when it's gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
It's so funny, And I'm just going to say that
kid with the mustache, I'm just going to say that
is Ripper with the rattails kid, Like I'm just gonna
say that is my hypothesis.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Doesn't he kind of look like him too? He totally
did the facial and and then and a penchant for
uh for hair yeah yeah expression.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
So that's.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Is mustache guy.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yep, yep. So Kimmy's in shock, she says, these people,
they're like totally mature. A couple starts making out in
the hallway, and DJ points it out, saying, where are
we the young and the restless Junior High? Seriously, Kimmy
checks dj schedule, realizing they only have one class together,

(29:52):
six period Spanish. DJ size, great, the only time we're together.
We can't speak English. A girl walks up to DJ
and Kimmy and excitedly greets them. DJ asks do we
know you? And the girl says, duh, we only went
to school together for the past six years. She reveals

(30:12):
herself to be the Kathy Santoni. Oh here we are
rocking a crop top and I'll write a little pencil
skirt rack.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
I was like, what what's happening? Hey?

Speaker 1 (30:26):
You know this? This was just I love it. I
love that Kathy Santoni is finally here.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
She's finally here, finally here.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
DJ and Kimmy look at each other and shock and
then they say in unison, Kathy Santoni. Kimmy admits, you
grew up, and DJ looks her up and down and
adds big time. Kathy responds pretty intense summer. Kathy begins
to tell them everything that she's found out so far.
All the cute guys take metal shop, and everyone makes

(30:56):
out after school on the football field.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Everyone just just it's just just a field full of
seventh and eighth graders just making out randomly.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Yeah, yeah, everybody. Well, and that Kimmy asks that everyone
like she's all so excited to be included, right, And
Kathy brings her back down and was just like, well
maybe not everyone. Oh poor Kimmy. The school bell rings
and this all the students disperse for class. The popular
girls walk past Kimmy and DJ again, pointing and laughing,
at them. DJ tells Kimmy, I might go back to

(31:27):
the sixth grade. Stephanie really needs me. I just I
can feel it, like I could feel that visceral like
insecurity and just anxiety.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Everything. Everything's just miserable and you're like you want to cry,
but you also are like I'm fine.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
And it's oh the emotions, the emotional roller coaster.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
You hate everyone, yourself, your parents, Yeah, it's it's the word,
your friends. One minute with somebody, then you're not the
next then you hate, like, oh god, it's just exhausting. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
I this this episode is so relatable. It brought me
right back to those feelings. Oh yeah. So next, we
are in the backyard and Joey's practicing his golfing and
Michelle joins him with her own toy clubs. Joey sits
her down so she can watch Jesse's golf lesson first
and Michelle responds, got it, dude, Okay, I'm gonna say

(32:20):
a little look a little thumb I got a little
thumbs up. I'm gonna say this is our first. You
got it, dude, even though she dropped the U.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
This is our first.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
You got it, dude, You got it? Dude, I think so.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
Let's like, I see I keep feeling like, no, I've
seen that before, but they I don't know.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Well, our fan Uritos will tell us if right. Yeah,
they're gonna tell us. But I was very excited. She
had the thumbs up and everything.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
But it could be. I'm not gonna say it is
or isn't, because I'm probably wrong either way. Okay, we
think it.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
I think it is, but if not, Fos, please correct me.
So Jesse comes out of the house wearing a pastel
pink golf Outfit's great. I thought he looked great too,
Like he was. He was looking the part. But yeah, uh,
but Joey and Michelle burst into laughter at the sight
of him. Joey reminds Jesse that they're doing this to

(33:16):
impress the client, and Jesse jokes how by burning out
his retinas he is.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
He is bright, but you know he is great. But
he looks great. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Joey tells him to watch his demonstration swing. Jesse watches
and asks, that's it, that's the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
He's a cake. It does look deceptively easy.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
It does.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
It looks very I mean, not that I've ever really
attempted playing golf, but it looks you're like, ah, just
swing a thing at a thing.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Yes, oh no, it's there's a lot more skill involved
than just that, but it is it looks deceptively simple.
Jesse takes the club from Joey and proudly tells him
to watch the kid take care of business. Before taking
his swing. Jesse circles hips and begins to move like Elvis.
This is such a John's so great, He's so into this.

(34:09):
Joey butts in Jess, Elvis never made one golf movie.
So Jesse practices his swing and hits the club into
the ground, picking up a mound of grass in the process.
Michelle says, uh oh, and Joey jokes, very few golfers
can drive a lawn that far.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Yeah, that's usually what happens to me. M chunk divots, divots.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
So Joey gets up behind Jesse to give him a
hand with his stroke.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Did you really have to write and say that sentence?

Speaker 1 (34:44):
It's accurate, it's.

Speaker 2 (34:47):
True, but you you just know the guy.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
How many takes did it take the guys to get
through this this scene? Jesse slowly turns his head to
look at Joey behind him and says, I hope this
is gold related, and Joey says if it wasn't, he
wouldn't be doing it. Joey instructs Jesse on exactly what
to do with his swing. He asks if Jesse is

(35:10):
ready to try one for himself, and Jesse sarcastically says, no,
I want to play like this for eighteen holes.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
Get off.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
Joey hands Jesse a large pink ball to hit. Jesse
misses the ball completely, hitting the grass again, and Michelle says,
daddy be mad.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Michelle takes a turn practicing her swing on the ball
and hits it on her first attempt. She says, I'm good,
and Joey asks Jesse see how she kept her head down.
Michelle's so confident, Like, I love the confidence of.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
A two second Yeah, I got it. Anyway, I'm done by.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
All right, we're back in the Junior High. DJ walks
into the cafeteria, nervously scanning the room for a seat.

Speaker 2 (35:56):
Oh, trauma, It's just that's the worst.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah, Like, who are you gonna sit with? What if
your friends aren't they're doing that now?

Speaker 2 (36:04):
If I go somewhere or like at like lunch with
like crews, and you're like, oh no, oh no, I
have to find.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
This oh no, oh ah. Yeah, it's terrifying. Yeah, it
doesn't matter how old you are when you walk into.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
A room full of unknowns and you just can't help
but feel like lame carrying a tray. It's just you
have a train, you're like the like. It just you
just feel stupid because now your because I think it
reminds everyone of being back in like elementary middle school
and the horrors of going through the lunch line.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah. Well, because once you're carrying the tray, you're committed.
People know that you're here to eat lunch. It's not
like you're just passing through, right, Yeah, exactly, You're here
to eat lunch. And so if you don't find a
place to sit, there's nowhere to go go. Right So,
unbeknownst to DJ, a girl walks in directly behind her.
The popular girl from before yells and DJ's direction over here,

(36:54):
I saved you a seat, and DJ walks over to
her in relief.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Oh then they've done that. This is the worst O.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
This is relatable. DJ gets to the table and says, thanks,
my name is and the girl responds, not you scrub,
The seat's taken, and the girl behind her sits down cool.
One of the teachers, missus Agbabian, walks in. She reminds
DJ to keep the aisle clear. Once DJ and the

(37:21):
teacher are standing next to each other, it becomes very
clear that they are wearing the exact same outfit.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Just a hole would have to open up in the
middle of the school cafeteria and swallow me right that
in there, like that's it. I'm I'm like beneath the
school now.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
The hits just keep on coming, like it just keeps
getting viner.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
And you know what the thing is too, is I
was like, I actually when I saw her outfit too,
like in the first Sea, I was like, oh, that's
a cute outfit. That's a cute little DJ outfit.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Right, I thought it was stylish for you know, nineteen
eighty nine, and well it was, Yeah, it was stylish,
but so the teacher apparently the teacher so too, oh dear.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
Which means it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Yeah. So the whole cafeteria laughs at this discovery, and
before walking off, the teacher compliments DJ, that's a very
snappy outfit. Worst the whole cafeteria laughs, including the Ripper
with the rattails son, Ripper with the ratail Junior. He's
laughing at her too.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
With Ripper with a rattail mustache. Yes, and DJ, it's
actually it's Ripper Junior with a mustache. Yeah, but I like, yeah,
oh yeah, Ripper Junior Tail Junior with a mustache.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
Rattail Junior with a mustache. That's it. That's it.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
That's the name or mustache rattail Junior. That would be
his official name on his you know, government stuff.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Oh wait, mustache rattail junior mustache, Ripper with the rattail
is senior.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Oh okay, then mustache rattail Junior.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
So what's the nickname? I'm never gonna remember that.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Rattail is the is the last name? That's where we're going.
Rattail mustache names first name? Right, Okay?

Speaker 1 (38:57):
So it's mustache with rattails is right? Okay, Okay, it's
the dad's name. Got it? Love it. This kid deserves
a credit. He deserves a royalty payment for that.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Mustache needs an acknowledgment. Do you think it was a
stick on, by the way, or do you think it
was a real mustache? Oh, that's a good question. Pretty present, It.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
Looked pretty present.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
And one he didn't seem like he was growing at
have it much hair anywhere else? I think it might
have been a There was a moment where I was like,
is that a rute? But I didn't.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
I'm gonna say it's a stick on. It's a stick on,
because then Jeff could control.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
Now do we think the rat tail was a clip on?
Is it real? Is this a family of flyers?

Speaker 1 (39:39):
No?

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Okay, anyway, Sorry, we're going off on a whole side
tangent here.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
But this is important, this is very important. Okay, I'm
gonna go with the rat The rat tail was real.
The mustache.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
Mustache is fake, Well, mustache is fake because he's he's
trying to look older, so you know, he's he's like,
I don't have the hair powers of of ripper with
a ratail senior, right yet right, he's grown, he's hitting puberty. Right,
he's got to stick the mustache on in order to
live up to his dad's you know, name.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Doesn't really doesn't want to disappoint that, you know, the family,
the family heritage here, the ratail family.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
Rights. I saw someone with a rat tail. It was
a kid, so I didn't. I was it was I
was going to take a picture and send to you,
but I was like, that's not nice. But I was
very excited and I almost yelled out, oh my god,
a ratail, And I was like, I can't. That's not Yeah, yeah,
I had to share.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
That with you. Oh so it's still in style. It's
there's someone out.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
There there, They're still out there. Yep, there are generations
still happening.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Oh that makes me so happy. That makes me so happy.
So DJ finally escapes into the phone booth to pretend
to call someone, but she's really calling the time operator person.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
All of which are things that that youth today would
be like, what is that box? Why is she in there?
Who's telling her the time? Like all of the things
that she had to put a quarter in? Why?

Speaker 1 (41:03):
Yeah, I remember calling the time lady to figure out
what time it was, literally thirty seconds of television that
you were like, none of that happens at all anything. No,
the joke would not have worked if we had been
shooting this today.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
I mean, I feel like I never really saw a
phone booth in a school cafeteria. But true, true, Well,
then again, how much time did I spend in school cafeterias.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Thank goodness for these phone booths because now they're becoming
emotional support locations like you were in one in the
Christmas episode last season for your emotional support.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
Now phone which is always a great place to go
and have a meltdown. Yeah, or change your clothes very
quickly and save the.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
World, but multipurpose. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, I'm sad that we've
gone we've done away with phone booths because they were useful.
I'm just gonna say, okay, So that that's that. We
cut to a very sad commercial break. Yeah, violins and everything.
When we come back, we're in the kitchen. Danny's looking

(42:01):
at all the grass that Jesse ripped out of his
lawn and he groans, my beautiful lawn hacked into pieces.
Michelle says that it was a gopher.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
Jesse, why would you bring all of the pieces of
the lawn inside of your house and put them on
the table.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
Well, because the joke has to work. But yeah, this
didn't seem like Danny. I know, I know that, but
I was like, like, Danny would not bring blades of
grass into his house?

Speaker 2 (42:25):
No, not under your table?

Speaker 1 (42:27):
No, because then you got dirty. You got dirt and
grass blades all over your gar where you eat. No,
that didn't track. That didn't track with Danny at all.
Jesse and Joey walk into the kitchen wearing golf clothes
and carrying clubs. Michelle points at them shouting two gophers.
Danny realizes she meant two golfers, and Joey says no, No,

(42:48):
one golfer, one gopher, referring to Jesse as the gopher.
Danny asks if they were hitting golf balls in his
backyard and Jesse promises, I swear I didn't hit one.
Joey says it took them six hours just to play
nine holes.

Speaker 2 (43:05):
Oh god, how.

Speaker 1 (43:06):
Long does it? I don't play golf, so how long
does it normally take?

Speaker 2 (43:09):
I don't play golf. I don't play golf because I
feel like, no matter how long it takes, it feels
like it takes six hours, right, So it's just yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
No, that's a lot of time a golf. Okay, but
apparently six hours is long to play well, to play
nine hole nine, So that's only half the course.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
That's only half of a course. Yeah, I feel like
that should be like a like a ninety minute.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
Yeah, that's like right.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
Like golf three hours. Maybe, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (43:36):
That's what I would guess too. Sure, if there's any
golfer Fanurito's, please chime in and tell us how long
it takes to uh putt putt through nine holes? Are eighteen?
Let us know? Okay? Uh So, Joey encourages Jesse to
tell Danny his score. Jesse diverts the question and adds
that he got them the motor Oil ACCOUNTA. Wooh, that

(43:59):
was the whole point of this goal game.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
That's yep.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Joey asks Jesse again to share what score he got,
and Jesse reluctantly says, I shot one hundred and fifty nine.

Speaker 2 (44:12):
I take it that that's not good.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Is that not good?

Speaker 2 (44:14):
I don't don't. I don't know either.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
Is the goal to have fewer the goals?

Speaker 2 (44:18):
To have the lead? I think I think it's. Yeah,
you get there's like.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
A there's a handicap or something or a Is that
a thing.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
I love?

Speaker 1 (44:27):
No, that's tennis.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
No, that's tennis. No, it's like you but you get scored,
you know, it's like a like par three or what. Yeah,
So it's like it should take you three shots to
get the ball in the hole, and anything over that,
and anything over that you start, yeah, and then it's
like then it's a bogie or a whatever that or
not a bogie but like a you know, a double

(44:48):
birdie or I don't know. They have great names for
like like every time you go over the par then
it's like, oh, you've got one over or two over there.
But there's like with little names for it.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
I think, okay, okay, yeah that makes sense. Look at
us trying to figure out goal.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Right, but I think, yeah, but the goal is definitely lower. Okay.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
So it's like mini golf where yeah, like mini golf,
I normally score like yeah, you know, in the thirties
or something like that.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
So okay, that's if you're doing well. I'm not great
at golf.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
So DJ rushes into the kitchen and Danny asks her
how her first day of school was. DJ says it
was typical. She got her classes, went to them, and
now she's home. As DJ walks up the stairs, she
turns back around and asks her dad if she can
dress a little more junior high ish tomorrow. Danny says
he understands she wants to be hip like her rad dad.

(45:36):
Oh yeah, oh Danny, DJ sarcastically says yeah, that's it
and adds thanks, Dad, you're the best. Steph rushes into
the kitchen and shouts, second grade is so cool.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
Steph's living her best life. Oh, just like everything's great.

Speaker 1 (45:53):
What a difference from this morning where she was all
doom and gray, and now she's like on top of
the world. She both that she's the official Room seven
fish feeder, and now with DJ gone, she knows people
are talking to her when they say hey, Tanner. Steph
tells her dad that one of the shrimpy little first
graders asked her where the cafeteria was, and she told

(46:14):
him can't you read that big sign that says cafeteria
And the kid responded, I can't read stuff. Is ecstatic they.

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Can't even read. What a great day now that is?
You're just happy to be above somebody else, you know
that is a great middle.

Speaker 1 (46:32):
Mean being like an upper classman, being older than Oh,
that's a.

Speaker 2 (46:35):
Great especially once the older sibling is gone. I know,
like be really enjoyed that. When like Zoe left her
elementary school, like she missed her, but also she was like,
but now my older sister isn't here to sort of
make my life misery.

Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yeah, oh yeah, it's a great milestone. I'm thrilled for Stephanie. Sure.
So next we're in the girls room. Kimmy and DJ
are getting ready for the second day of school and
attempting to do their makeup like they saw the popular

(47:11):
girls wearing the day before. They smile in the mirror,
revealing teeth stained with lipstick, to which they both say,
you this is relatable too. DJ asks Kimmy if she
thinks they look old enough to keep her out of
the phone booth during lunch. Kimmy points out, well, at
least you got to eat. I had to give my
lunch to a girl with a tattoo.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Risk. Kid's going to school, right, geez.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
DJ and Kimmy go to put on more mascara, and
Kimmy says, assume the position and.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
I remember you guys in this face.

Speaker 1 (47:46):
Yeah, they opened their mouths and apply that. I still
do that to this day. Do you do that when
you put on pat scara? It helps like elongate your
your eye your eyes so you.

Speaker 2 (47:55):
Don't Yeah, everybody makes a weird I'm literally making weird faces.
You're on the zoom butt. Yeah, that's yeah, you gotta.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
So, stephan Michelle walk in and Steph realizes they're having
a makeup party. She says she wants to look just
like Superstar Barbie. DJ rolls her eyes, saying, chill, child,
you are way too young. Michelle asks for makeup and
DJ gives her lipstick to put on. Stephanie asks, and
I'm too young? How rude?

Speaker 2 (48:26):
Exactly?

Speaker 1 (48:27):
This?

Speaker 2 (48:27):
Your delivery is such also such a big sister thing
to be like, no, you can't have it, but you
can't give you a little incute but you know what
I mean, like just just to be.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
An torturing of the little sister. And your delivery of
how rude is so like it's not peak you got
like the eyebrows or raising you got the wy it's
your classic how rude delivery and I am here for it.
You So. Danny yells off stage that it's time to go,
and DJ and Kimmy stand up to reveal their outfits

(48:54):
to Michelle and Stephanie. They're both wearing skin tight skirts
and tops. Steph tells them that they look cheap, to
which Kimmy responds, all right, I appreciate the honesty. You know,
I appreciate Steph's honesty.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Yes, Steph's like, it's not it ain't your best luck.

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Kimmy looks at DJ and rips her jacket off, revealing
a stuffed braw Michelle and Steph's eyes bulge when they
see this. DJ shouts Kimmy, and Kimmy maturely states, call
me kimberly that, oh boy, I.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
Was dying when I watched that. Hilarious, ridiculous. What are
your thoughts on it today?

Speaker 1 (49:36):
Mortified? Well, I was mortified. Back did you say, were
you Yeah?

Speaker 2 (49:39):
I'm sure back then you were like, oh my god,
I was.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
This is yeah, this is a core memory. I was
just mortified because, well, I had okay, I was pretty
flat at that age, which is not a big deal.
That's very normal. But then when they wanted to like okay,
they wanted to me to wear falsees. But then, of
course the jokes gotta work, so I had like producers
coming up to me in between takes right and giving
notes to wardrobe saying we need stuff to more, we

(50:04):
need it bigger, And that was more trying to have
men looking at my boots.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
I definitely this, I'm gonna say, I kind of I
kind of this this episode I had some problems with Yeah,
not gonna lie, you had some problems with, uh, with
the way in which young girls were dressed. Yeah, I
just felt I was like, I don't love it. But again,

(50:30):
we you know, it's you four it and it is.
It is a storyline that's not like made up like
it's it is exactly what kids do. My kids do it.
It's you know, every generation goes through different like oh,
it's a a mini skirt, it's a crop top, it's
a you know, baggy pants and a whatever. Like it's
always something that they're trying to do. But yeah, I
definitely like when I watched that scene, that was all
I could think of was like, oh my god, because

(50:53):
you know, like it's just pointing out something that you
know is already very obvious in your real life. Right
now you have to deal with outside of the joke
you're making on the show. Yeah, yeah, it totally get it.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
It's easy to forget that there's real people behind these well.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Character joke's funny in the scene, but then after that
scene you have to go and exist in the world
with everyone having seen that joke. Yeah, and which when
you're an adult. You don't care when you're a kid.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
Oh my god, when you're thirteen and every everything having
to do with your body is embarrassing, especially like your
private areas, you know. And so I was mortified that boobs,
my boobs were even a topic of discussion. Well yeah,
I had to stuff my bra and then mortified that
the producers were like animal sitting there staring at my

(51:44):
boobs and say, no, I need a little more, No,
I need a little And I was like, oh god, yeah,
I was just my face was beat red watching this again,
reliving that, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
Yeah, I didn't I did love that for you. I
didn't know that that for you.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
I don't think we needed it. I think they got
the point of with the fish nets and the tight
skirts and the crazy you know, the wild rice hair.
I think that was enough. We didn't need the fallsies
as well.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
But you know, but it's also such a but it
is such a thing that like girls this age, no matter,
you know, and all of the body positivity. But I'm like, oh,
you're you know, you're good the way you are. Like
I still watch them all be like, oh but I
need a you know, I need a push that bra
or I need it and you're like, no, you don't.
I don't. Yeah, So it is like I get it

(52:28):
is it's a typical thing, but it is true, I
guess now being an adult and having like different eyes
on it, like you know, it's a normal thing, but
at the same time, like I guess, you just look
at it differently as like, how could we I don't know,
make that slightly less weird, you know what I mean?
For I don't know.

Speaker 1 (52:47):
Yeah, well, I keep thinking what if it was my daughter,
my thirteen year old out there and where men are
talking about the size of or bust. I would have
a problem with that if I was the mom. I mean,
I'm now, I wasn't scarred by it.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
I wasn't. Yeah, no, I definitely was like but if that.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
Was my ma, I would be like, yeah, I'd be like, guys,
this is change the joke. There's a different jo there's
a better joke.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
I think, well, yeah, And I think that's the thing
is this is like the central joke of this is
something that I think now would be handled a lot differently,
or at least it would be less like sexualized. I get, like,
you know what I mean, it would be like, there
would still be sort of like the things that you
want to do maybe that you can't do, but maybe

(53:31):
it wouldn't be looking like you're twenty five and stuff
in your bra you know what I mean. I don't know.
Maybe there would be just a different joke or a
different way to get the same sort of joke that
you would do today that would be a little less problematic.
Yeah you know, yeah, true, I don't. Yeah, again, it
was one of those things whe were like, I don't
think the intent was any The intent was not anything inappropriate.

(53:51):
It was a very normal storyline of stuff that we
all knew that you know, kids go through at this age.
But yeah, definitely looking back on it now, you're like, eh,
I don't know that I'm that now.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
Didn't love it, Yeah, didn't love it, And that memory
he looked great, well, thanks, And the booths were so
low too. I'm just like, why are why are the
falsies so danglos? Like because I had nothing to hold
it out?

Speaker 2 (54:11):
They were right, they were, Yeah, they were. They already
looked like you were like forty eight. Yes, they're like
they're supposed to start off higher.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
They're supposed to start off higher. But I had Yeah,
they were just the bra just kept shifting lower and lowers.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
Right, like it's a belt. At this point, oh god.

Speaker 1 (54:28):
Okay, well, thank god that scene's over. Moving on, I
don't worry.

Speaker 2 (54:32):
There's more.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
There's more. Moving onto the kitchen, Danny is over the scene,
cleaning his rubber gloves. Jesse remarks, it problem, He's done it.
He's finally he's cleaning liquid soap, and Joey tells Danny
there's no shame in therapy. DJ and Kimmy rush through
the kitchen with their heads down, muttering quick goodbyes as

(54:54):
they make a bee line for the front door. When Danny, Joey,
and Jesse realize what they're wearing, they run out of
the kitchen after them. They all run into the living
room and Danny yells for Kimmy and DJ to hold
it right there. DJ says they have to get to school,
and her father responds, you have to get through me first.

(55:14):
DJ complains that he already said she could look more
Junior highish, and Danny says, where is this Junior High
Caesar's Palace?

Speaker 2 (55:23):
Possibly, Danny, you should see some of the people at
the school.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
You should see the popular girls, right, yeah. Yeah, Danny
tells Steph that she can go to school, and Steph
mocks the older girls. I guess we aren't as old
as we thought we were, are we now? And she proudly.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
I remember my mom working with me on that line
she did. I remember it because because it was like,
we're working on it, and it was like the the
the rhythm of it was part of the funny, like,
I guess we aren't as old as we thought we were,
are we now? Like that, k you know, it's the
cadence of it. I just remember, like I guess, I

(56:01):
just remember my mom saying that, like as I was
working on the script in the car, Like, I just
remember my mom repeating that line. Yeah, we're making it funny.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
Oh it was brilliant.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
Oh it was brutal. It was brilliant. It was such
redemption for Steph. The makeup party, right, Oh my gosh,
I loved it. Yeah. That was bad, perfect intonation and cadence,
Like bravo to you and Janis for that. Uh So,
Kimmy walks out the door and flirts with Joey and

(56:31):
Jesse as she leaves, saying so long boys. Jesse gives
a look to Joey, DJ tells her dad that he
was not at school with her and he did not
see the other girls. Danny tells DJ he doesn't care
about the other girls. His daughter isn't going to school
dressed like Jessica Rabbit. DJ pleads for Jesse and Joey

(56:53):
to tell Danny that he's wrong, but they throw their
hands up, not willing to get in the middle of this.
Reluctantly begrudgingly agrees to change.

Speaker 2 (57:04):
Getting a teenage girl to change is you know, you're like,
and I'm just blowing up everything that happens for the
next three hours after this.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
Yeah, because a song.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
As you got to do it, you're like, you can't
wear you can't wear that, and because it can't wear
that to Grandma's dinner or whatever.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
Yeah, it's and it's the one thing they feel they
can control is what they're wearing. And then when that
control is taken away, they are pissed.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
And I try to be pretty like, okay, we're you know,
but there are I'm like, no, we're no, we're not
doing that, and yeah, it is met with oh and
just yeah, lots of door slamming.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
Yep, yep. And it doesn't help that these days I
sound so old these days, like the skirts are so short,
like everything, the skirts, the shorts, they are all so
dang short. And I'm like, these weren't so short in
my day, back in my day.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
I know I'm so old.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
Now, come on, fashion designers work with us moms. He're
just add a few more inches to those skirts and
short It's okay. So DJ storms out, saying I'll be
Daddy's little girl forever, and Danny admits, not forever, just
until you're my age. Danny tells the boys, do you

(58:15):
know what this means? We are on the verge of
raising a teenager?

Speaker 2 (58:19):
Oh no.

Speaker 1 (58:20):
The three of them realize that she'll be going to parties,
driving cars and dating guys just like Jesse. Danny states, oh,
she's never leaving the house again and runs upstairs.

Speaker 2 (58:33):
Yeah that is a that's a terrifying thought.

Speaker 1 (58:35):
Oh yeah, it's and it's they have They have every
right to be terrified.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Jesse has every reason to be like, that's absolutely not
gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
He would know. So back up in DJ's room. DJ
somberly sits in her room, hugging her pillow. Person I
love this shot. This is my favorite shot of the
whole episode. Billy Foster just did such a great job,
like because it's such the juxtaposition of DJ dressed as
this like older, older girl but hugging her childhood toy

(59:08):
for comfort.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Right, Yeah, It's just that is the epitome of the
like middle school even high school experience is like I'm
I want to be older, but I still have those
like little kid things, those moments.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Yeah, oh, it's it was a great It was a
great shot, a great shot. It just it encompasses the
whole episode. And it's like that Britney spears song, not
a girl but not yet a woman, Right, that's where
DJ is right now, you know, she's right in the
She's in the middle age. So Danny knocks on the
door and DJ tells him to leave her alone. He
says he can't, and he walks in, pleading, honey, I

(59:45):
want to know what's going on with you. DJ looks
up at her dad, revealing that she's been crying, and admits,
yesterday was the worst day of my life. Everyone looks
so much older than me. I was dressed exactly like
the teacher that everybody I ate lunch in the phone booth,
listening to the Time Lady for twenty five minutes and
thirty seconds beep. I felt for her, like I felt

(01:00:09):
so bad for her. DJ sits down on her bed
and Danny takes a seat next to her. He wishes
that she would have told him this yesterday, but DJ
confesses that she was too embarrassed. She doesn't know what happened.
In the sixth grade, she was cool and now she's
a joke. Danny tells her it's because she was a
big fish in a small pond, but now she's in

(01:00:31):
a big pond, so she feels like a small fish.
DJ just wants people to like her, and her dad
assures her that they will as soon as they get
to know her. Danny has DJ look at herself in
the mirror and says, this girl isn't you? And DJ
asks who am I? Mmmm? This is my second favorite

(01:00:51):
shot of the whole episode. Like this le scene is
so poignant, It's so beautiful, like beautifully acted beautifully.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
It does a really great scene.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
Yeah, I just I love it so much. Danny doesn't
want to stop her from growing up, but she can't
go from twelve to twenty five overnight. DJ shrugs Kathy
Santoni did. Danny reminds her that this teenage stuff is
new for both of them, but he's sure that they
can work it out if they keep one thing in mind.

(01:01:23):
They have no choice. Danny and DJ sit at the
table and he begins to take off her makeup. Becky
runs in, yelling to Danny that they're going to be late,
but she stops in her tracks when she sees DJ
and says, oh, DJ, don't ever let your father do
your makeup, and DJ admits that she did it. Becky

(01:01:43):
says that when she first started wearing makeup, she made
the same mistakes. Danny asks how old Becky was and
guessing she was eighteen or nineteen, Becky says, actually she
was right around DJ's age. Becky tells DJ that her
mom taught her that the secret to wearing makeup is
to try and make it look like you're not wearing
any This advice sticks with me to this day. Like

(01:02:06):
you know, Becky is giving this universal advice that is
still true to this day. Danny and DJ both ask
how do you do that? And Becky kindly asks Danny
if she can show her Danny smiles and tells Becky
to go for it. DJ thanks her dad and tells
him not to worry, because no matter how old she gets,

(01:02:27):
he can always think of her as his little girl.
DJ puts her hand on her dad's shoulder and says,
give me a hug, Dad, and Danny responds, oh, I
love those words, and they hug. Michelle walks into the
room with lipstick all over her face and says, I
look pretty. Danny picks her up and tells her the

(01:02:47):
secret to make up is to make it look like
you're not wearing any. Michelle draws lipstick on Danny's face
and says, Daddy pretty. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:02:56):
I gotta be honest, though, I felt like the end
of the scene shouldn't have had Michelle in it. Yeah
it felt shoe and it felt shoehorned. Like the end
of that scene should have been Danny walking out the
door and looking at Becky showing Deech how to do

(01:03:16):
this and realizing, like, hey, sometimes she like this is,
you know, just having that moment where you look and go, oh,
this is These are the moments when she needs a
mom or she needs that female figure, and Danny kind
of would step back that would have been I felt like,
a really, but again, it's probably because that would be
too emotional and you got to have some sort of
funny button. You know. The network is probably it's getting

(01:03:38):
too depressing, But that, for me, I felt like that
was the moment that needed to be focused on, not
Michelle coming in and making it about her wearing lipstick.
I just felt like that was a sweet moment between
DJ and Becky and Danny. Yeah, that could have really been.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
A neat's I totally agree.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
It's not super confecting.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
Yeah, I know it's so true because it did. It
did feel like sometimes it feels like the writers have
a quota of jokes they have to hit, and so
they just well shoehorn these jokes.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
And sometimes I don't know if it's writers or if
it is No, they wanted to end on a you know,
a nice, sweet moment, and the network was like, but
it's not funny. People aren't gonna watch it. It's not funny. Yeah,
but make some stupid note and you're like, but it's
a moment.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
But poignancy is very powerful, sometimes more powerful than laughter,
and so yeah, I think just I love the image
I have of what you said about pushing it on
Danny watching Becky and DJ realizing like his wife is
gone and the girls don't have a maternal figure and
he knows nothing about makeup or girls stuff for junior

(01:04:38):
you know, so yeah, they really the girls needed that.
That was the moment, so powerful, so powful, and it
would have transitioned just so nicely into the next scene.

Speaker 2 (01:04:47):
Yeah, yeah, it is junior High.

Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
Yeah, so next in the Junior High, DJ walks into
the cafeteria and runs into Kimmy. Kimmy tells her she
got her schedule changed, so they have this same lunch now.
Kimmy and DJ are both changed out of their mature clothing,
and DJ asks Kimmy, Hey, what happened to your bod?
Kimmy jokes, it's back in my sock drawer. DJ walks

(01:05:12):
up to a girl from her English class and says hi.
The girl introduces herself and her friend and asks Kimmy
and DJ if they want to sit with them.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
Oh, a nice person, a.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
Normal nice girl that's dressed like a normal nice girl.

Speaker 2 (01:05:26):
Right, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
Just then the popular girls walk in and glare at DJ, saying,
you're sitting at our table. DJ responds, well, now it's
a scrub table, but you're welcome to join us. The
popular girl laughs and says, I'd rather eat in a
phone booth. The popular girls walk away, and DJ's new
friends congratulate her on a great comeback. DJ laughs and

(01:05:52):
says someone should tell her she's wearing a bit too
much makeup and that's our show. And DJ does go
great with her subtle makeup that Becky did. Oh she
looks so.

Speaker 2 (01:06:04):
Pretty, Yeah, DJ, and gimme her back and like they're
they're normal looking people close. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Oh, this is just such a sweet episode.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
Yeah, it was a great episode that really tapped into
something that so many people. I think, really, yeah, we
all relate to, we all feel it, that fear, terror, excitement,
all of that of starting middle school.

Speaker 1 (01:06:27):
Yeah, I remember this. I have witnessed my own kids
going through this, the pull of the popular crowd, right,
you want to be part of it. But they're horrible something,
they're horrible.

Speaker 2 (01:06:37):
They're horrible. Yeah. Yeah, so I watch that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
Yeah, I get it. I totally get it. But oh,
such a sweet it was a it was a great episode.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
You were hilarious. Thank you. Yeah, I definitely were it today.
I would make a few changes to the episode, but uh,
but overall very funny and very relatable. Agreed.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
Agreed, Yeah, it hit on a lot of great topics. Yeah,
a couple of problematic moments, but yeah, with a few
minor tweaks, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
It would have been no notes, could totally do it. Yeah, exactly. Yep.
Well I love this episode, ab I do have an
everywhere you look moment though, everywhere you looks tell me
what you got. So there's a moment where DJ. They're
in DJ and steps room and it kind of go
it's when DJ's looking in the mirror. Okay, I believe
in they go to go sit down. Yeah, I never

(01:07:29):
noticed this before, and maybe it was new, But did
you notice Mel Gibson's giant head cut out on the wall,
like way kind of up at.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
The top, up in the corner, just his head.

Speaker 2 (01:07:40):
I was like, oh, that's right. He was like super hot,
honky popular dude.

Speaker 1 (01:07:44):
It was like the lethal weapon days right, right, But yeah,
the weapon, Yeah, I did see it. We normally, we
normally don't shoot that high, so maybe that's why we
didn't notice.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
Yeah, that's what it was, like, way high up on
the wall, and I think it was to get Bob
and Candace.

Speaker 1 (01:08:00):
Oh so tall, Yeah, to.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
Get them in the mirror shot. And so it was,
and then they were walking. It was tall and they
had to bring them down. But I think, you know,
it was just a weird piece of like set deck
that we hadn't noticed before. But I did see a
giant Mel Gibson head staring at us creepily from the corn.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
It was a it was a jump scare. It was
because now it's like Mel Gibson was.

Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
Like, eh, you know a little right, Yeah, now you're
not exactly the one you'd want hanging in your ear.

Speaker 1 (01:08:23):
No, but yeah, back then he was a hunk, he
was hot, he was popular. Yeah, that was It does
seem a little odd for thirteen year old girl to
have that on her wall, but you know.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
What I mean. No, she had George Michael up there too.
Oh yeah, that's True's like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:37):
But is she really watching Lethal Weapon? I don't know what,
you know, I don't judge.

Speaker 2 (01:08:41):
I mean maybe, man, I don't know. Probably with Jesse,
Oh yeah, for sure, Jess and Joey would let her
watch Lethal Weapon.

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
Yeah, when Danny's out for the night, yep, right, exactly. Well,
I have a couple, a couple of what are yours? Well,
one is a sort of a repeater. One of the
mean girls is Candice's cousin, Megan, one of the not
the main blonde girl, but the other blonde girl, the
one that like cuts in front of DJ and takes
her seat at the lunch table.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Yes, that's me, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:09:09):
And then there's another there's another part of the scene
where we're at a table checking our schedules and there's
a boy in our It's like a three shot with
a boy.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
I remember the three shot. Isn't that What was his name?

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
Isn't it Candas's friend or cousin? I think a friend? Okay, yes, yes, okay,
So that's a canvas connection. She put her cousin and
her friend in there.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
Yeah, I definitely I noticed. I was like, whose kid
is this? I was like, because he's in a three shot? Yeah,
yeah he is. Yeah, prominently placed. It was great. It
was great.

Speaker 1 (01:09:40):
Yeah, So that's it. Those are my everywhere he looks.
I love it.

Speaker 2 (01:09:44):
Those are some good ones.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
I know.

Speaker 2 (01:09:45):
I looked. I definitely looked in the in the junior
high scene and was like looking through all of the
kids in the background.

Speaker 1 (01:09:51):
But you'll usually almost always see.

Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
I recognize that I recognized a couple a handful, but
but not not as many as like when we have
like a party at house or something. I feel like
those are usually more.

Speaker 1 (01:10:01):
I thought there'd be a lot more, but yeah, just
those two are the only ones that I read well.

Speaker 2 (01:10:06):
I think everyone's kids were Most people's kids were younger,
except for like Gina had Christina, A warder lady had Christina,
her daughter who was about your guys's age.

Speaker 1 (01:10:15):
Oh okay, oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:10:17):
And then but then there were a lot of younger
kids too.

Speaker 1 (01:10:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
Yeah, Like Keith Richmond's kids were more my age and younger.
And yeah, okay, so I think we had we didn't
have as many older ones to pull from.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
But that's okay, there's we have.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
It was great.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
A lot more seasons to go, and I'm sure we'll
see a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
Many more seasons in these oh so many more family
and friends. Yes, I'm sure our moms will make it
a reappearance somewhere at some point. But I love this
