What you want buttery screen looks butter good, being buttery

it and had it on your fingers and then wiped
your camera screen. You're little, then that's what it looks like.

I'm proud of you. But I didn't. But I didn't.

My camera was just dirty and it could have been
some sort of a stigmatism. I don't know, maybe there
was something wrong with me. There's definitely something wrong with me.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Maybe Okay, I don't remember anyway, so your PTSD was
maybe not as strong.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Right right, you know, but every time you hear those
four clicks before the music starts, it's just that immediately
it's like four clicks from.

big hamstring injury. Yeah, she looked gnarly. Yeah.

That rules that deep tissue massage too. That really kind
of Yeah, it sort of brings everything to the surface.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well, and Jensen was saying her it's the medication, medication
taking for cancer, right, kind of burst all of her
capillaries in her leg. Yeah, so it's like the entire
back of her leg is very bruised, right, but you
never know it.

Body makeup, body makeup and seven pairs of panty hose
and you'll never see anything.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, that's what she was doing in the photo you
posted on Instagram. She was getting the body makeup by you,
and we were like, let's just take a selfie right now?
Why not? Oh, you get it?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
I doing Dancing with the Stars is sort of like
the equivalent of losing like caring about any sort of modesty,
like when you.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Give birth, because it's you have.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
First of all, you have a costume on that's this big, right,
and and so everything. Plus you've gotten sprayed hand, you know,
oh well, right, and then the body makeup covers everything.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
You are sitting there, you got your leg up.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
On a table, like out to the side, someone is
like in the inner part.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Of your your thigh.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
You know, putting it and under your while somebody else
is doing your hair, putting on Lipstick's You're just like,
I don't care and I have to do this and
you have you know, touchups two minutes or whatever, and
if you have to change, oh forget it. Yeah, like
the changes that the dancers do, it is it's crazy.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
I could feel the stress just walking in the building
and then like we didn't to stand. You're like, if
you feel like you're in the way, that's what that's
how it is. You're in the way.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Wherever you stand, wherever you are, you're in the way.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
I mean, we also work.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
We were by Crafty and so we were in sort
of the like the pass through area because people were
coming to hair makeup touch ups.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yes, so it was you.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Know, everyone kind of filed through, filing through, but we
did you know, we got to see some friends. I
got to see some of my dancer friends, Alan and Jenna.
I got to see her and Val and she was amazing.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, Jenna makes me question my sexuality. I'm just gonna
put that out there because like her legs are amazing,
like every abs stop it stop, just stop. And her
costume was fantastic. Oh it was so great. Yeah, it
was so great.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
But yeah, it was really fun to see everybody. And
of course Tina Cat who produces the show, and I
remained friends with.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
So yeah, it was.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
It was fun to get to see everybody, and you know,
of course to get to see you guys, and Danielle's
mom and family were there. It was your brother in
probably like thirty years year yep, So yeah it was.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
It was a really good time. I was a little
bit of horse the day after though, for sure it
was too. I was I was hoarse, like I just
wanted to go sit in a dark room, right, curl
up in a ball like this was a lot of people,
a lot of noise, a lot of stress. Not uny,
but yeah, it was this it's high energy.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
It's like at the end of that day, you are
and you've been going since like six in the morning, right,
you've been there since six am in hair and makeup, dancing, dress, rehearsal,
all this stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yes, affirmed my choice And I never want to do this.
You never wanted to do that?

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, never, Yeah, it would be I think I feel
like for you.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
I would be under the table, you'd be like position. Yeah. Yeah,
it's a lot, there's no way, but I love being
the cheerleader friend in the audience. That's the way to
do it. Way less pressure. Yes, you just get to
watch and judge like a little balc.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah, I am the judgest sitting on the sidelines, not
able to do any of it, you know what I mean?
Just like on the point was a little off the
line would have been met. You know, shut up, shut up,
you don't know what what do you think you are?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Bruno? You know what I mean? Herrian, who was your favorite?
Besides Danielle, which is okay, and she was the number
one of the night, but besides her, who's in second
place for you? Robert Irwin? Oh yeah, he's really He
is charisma for days. Man. He was so great.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
So uh, my friend Celia, her daughter Harper, is in
college now and oh my god, is going there for zoology.
And literally Steve Irwin is the reason that she went
into zoology. And I would have loved to have met him,
but you know again, everything was just too much.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
But he killed it. Like just his face alone. He
has that same.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
Energy as his dad, like just this abusive unkind Like
his smile goes right to his eyes.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
You can tell he's a very genuine person. Yeah, no,
it's he was fantastic. I love watching the like during
the commercial breaks to see how everybody like the people
watching is just top not.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
The half of the fascination of doing of watching a
live show like that is watching the technical stuff that
happens in between. You know, they've got little electric leaf
blowers because every dance ends with confettis, so you gotta
get the little electric leaf flower. Somebody's got to mop
them up. You've got, you know, some ten thousand pound
a disco ball bloombox sculpture being rolled in and then

(08:50):
hoisted onto a chain like you know, and you've got
three minutes.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
To do it. Oh yeah, to the second, to the second.
There's that countdown clock and I'm like, guess, twenty second left,
and there's still guys on lefe on the danceler adjusting
the disco yeah, and I was like, hurry up, but yeah,
it all works out, It all works works out.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
That was It was kind of like the fun of
live television is unlike anything else.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
It really is.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
It's just you step off the ledge and you go.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
All right, here we go, we go.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yeah, And there's like a certain freedom in that, you
know what I mean, where it's like I only have
to do this once, Like I like, this is it.
I only get to do this once, but we have
to do this once, yeah, to get judged on.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
So it's one and done and yeah, like us who
keep retaking the scenes a million times to get it
right and you're tired by the end of the know,
this is just high I octane, high energy, one and done.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Right, although being at the end is always really stressful,
like being a little first like the three and then
the last two like somehow that fuels Yeah, when you're
kind of in the middle, you're like, okay, I've had
time to like warm up. I'm not in the panicked
energy of the opening numbers. You know, the opening numbers
a lot everybody walking in and then running around, and

(10:02):
you know that's stressful. So it's like when you're then
you're the first one to go, like you have you know.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
It's it feels like a lot. But yeah, that would
be very stressful, so much fun. Yeah, that's great. I
hope Daniel makes it to the end because you know
me too. She's really growing too, Like she's a lot
of these dancers or these competitors have dance experience, which
I don't grudge, but I like watching the journey, like
I like watching somebody who's never danced before I really

(10:27):
learn how to do it.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
And yeah there was another one. He was also like
really excited to be there and really wanting to learn
and like try new things.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
I really applauded that because I love him. Yeah he's great.
He's such another really nice guy. Just yeah, yeah, for sure.
I'm so glad he was saved because I was worried
about him. Yeah, me too, He's here for me. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Me and I ended the night with the Taco Bell.
That was how we were so hungry. She was like, God,
I want to scrunch wrap Supreme and I was like,
oh yeah, because they have they have the like the
two thousands menu or the like.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Nineteen ninety nine menu.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
They're doing it so it's like my high school era
Taco Bell.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yes, makes me happy. I used to That was my
Thursday night ritual before Beverly Hills nine O two and oh.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Well.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
This was probably the early night like ninety two ninety three.
We would go to Taco Bell, get our nacho Supreme
and everything, and then watch eat it and watch Beverly
Hills nine oh two and o on Thursday night. Damn.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Those Mexican pizza originally the Pizaz Pizza don't get me started.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Oh they renamed it or did they reformulate?

Speaker 2 (11:36):
Originally in the like eighties and nineties, it was called
the pizzazz Pizza.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Why did they change it? I like pizzazz Pizza. I
don't sound exciting, right, used to have allives on it.
I believe too, it was.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
It didn't I didn't, I think, unless I'm crazy imagining
that anyway, I believe. Yeah, Taco Bell ended the night
in you know, very nice stresses and sitting and shoving
crunch Trap supremes in our face in the car. We
were like, I'm not waiting to get home for this.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Yeah, I loved watching you and b like it's just
because you know, we complain about our not complain, but
we vent to each other as moms and stuff. But
you were just so happy, Like she was asking you
questions and you got up to dance at one point,
and like she was I couldn't tell she was embarrassed.
Oh she was. She was really parrified and secretly proud.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
But like she it was basically like I I'll allow
it because like these are your people, you know what
I mean. It's like she was like, you're making the
idiot of yourself in front of people, you know, uh,
anything like that out anywhere near her peers and it's no,
those are her people. Yeah, now embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Okay, so this was a safe space for her to, yeah,
watch you make a fool out of yourself. I thought
it was great.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
It was just so in her entire outfit she borrowed
from my closet. So we're at that stage now where
because she was like, I don't have anything to wear.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
I was like, I mean it was a last minute thing. True.
It's always the like last minute thing.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
They're like, I don't have a dress to wear, and
you're like, of course you don't remember when we were
shopping and I said you should get one.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
And you didn't. Yeah. Yeah, they don't love, they don't listen.
But it was fun.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
She I dressed her, you know, in one of my outfits.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
The belt, the shoes, everything. I was like, okay, she
looked so adorable. She looked really cuted. Yeah, sophisticated, she really. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
I was feeling it.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
So I don't know if I've seen her since Fuller,
Have I seen her? I don't know. I just remember
her being a lot, you know, she's almost surpassed.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
I don't know if you have seen her in the past.
I mean maybe like on socials or whatever.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
But not in person, in person, not in person. Yes,
she's so sweet. I love that. I love that kid.
I love that Amabian, I love that Amphibian. Good time.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
We should we get into the into the actual show.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Let's get into the actual show. Welcome back to how
Rude tan Ritos. I'm Andrea Barber.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
And I'm Jodie's Sweetened.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
See yours was good. It was good delivery, so they're yours. Well,
you know, it's Dancing with the Stars. I felt like,
I mean, having an announcer voice today. It was no Bullwinkle,
but oh I saw the clip. I saw the clip
from last week. Your Bullwinkle is going to be very
in demand. So you're in charge of all the Bullwinkle
impressions from here on out until the end of season eight.

(14:21):
Oh boy, yay.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Hopefully there's a diminishing amount.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
I'm sure there'll be a lot of Popeye in there too.
You know, he's got lots of voices, so don't worry.
Today we're discussing season five, episode fourteen, Sisters in Crime.
It originally aired December seventeenth, nineteen ninety one, and it
goes a little something like this. DJ sneaks out to
the movies with Stephanie and Michelle to meet a boy

(14:47):
she likes after promising Danny that she would stay at
home with the girls to babysit. Oh, DJ's breaking, J said, trouble.
DJ's in trouble. It was direct by Joel z Wick.
It was written by Boyd Hale. And we have two
amazing guest stars this week. We have the one and

(15:08):
only Scott Wenger. Yes, Steve Peters. Steve Peters. Steve Peters's
I remember Scott mentioning this on when we interviewed him
a long time ago on this show. But yeah, Peters.
And ironically, Boyd Hale is the one that wrote this
episode but named him Steve Peters, and I'm like, he

(15:29):
eventually is Steve Hale later on, So why didn't they
just give him Hale? I to begin with, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
I don't know. I to me, I was sort of
it was feeling like a like a debut Gregory moment,
Debbie Gregory moment.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
Somebody has a Steve Peters in their life.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
No, no, just that. Uh, it was like it doesn't matter.
This could be an entirely different kid, which wouldn't he
be because he's a junior, he's older than her. Oh
so this Steve Peters, Steve Peters, I don't think he's
Steve Hale because they graduated together.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
You think they're two different They've got to be. I
thought Steve Hale was a year older than DJ. Were
they they were we all in senior year together. I
know he comes back. I thought he came back to remember.
I thought I think Gregott wasn't there season eight? He
was like, why did he ditch us to go at Harvard?
I don't know, but how rude?

Speaker 2 (16:29):
You like read in Spanish or something.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Yeah, so I think Steve Hale. No, I'm going to
maintain that this is the same person. And he graduated
a year before DJ and Kimmy okay, and he came
back to take her to the prom in that one
of those last episodes. Right, okay, Oh wait, we have
a note. We have an incoming note. Steve is first
introduced to Steve Peters. Later on, his name changes Steve Hale.

(16:54):
Oh okay, thanks, I.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Am dBm dB is.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Crushing it right.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Well, they got the facts right, you know. Yeah, Now
he seems like he's the same person.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
So that's what I'm going with. But fans, please fan
of Rito's way in what do you think is the same? Maybe?
I mean he didn't maybe and rate it, so maybe
it is a different person.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Maybe no, I think it's the same. Maybe it's the
same person. I'll give him that. Maybe he just changed
his last name, you know.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Maybe he had a fallout with his uh, with his
dad and he was like and grew that guy.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
I'm gonna change it back to my mom's and Hale,
and that's what's hale.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Because we don't ever see Steve's.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Parents, so we don't don't. We don't really know, don't.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Yeah, he got even at the wedding, at the triple
wedding all those decades later, that's right, His parents weren't there.
Nobody was there. Well, they they.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Years back, so you know they were there in memory's.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
It's as sensitive topic. So yeah, yeah, uh yeah, don't
bring it up around him. It's very upset.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
And don't definitely don't call him mister Peters. He will
lose you'll lose it.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
You'll never speak to you again. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but
this child likes to change names, you know, Jesse Cochrane,
Jesse Katzopolis, Steve Peters, Steve Hale, so hey, right, anything
seventeen different names, seventeen. So yeah, it's just what we do.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
We do that, and we and we swap out one
of the lead characters while we're shooting.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
The first episode. That's yeah. You know, there's lots of
sitcoms that just swapped out kids like they just like
they're different were they.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
Never were, Like, let's get a different one and we'll notice.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Despite John's attempts, we stayed sorry buddy and get rid
of us. H hi right, and now he loves it,
look at it, you know. See. AnyWho, moving on, we
do have one more guest star this week. Ed Hooks
plays the theater manager. He is known for the film
Striking Distance and the film Hearts and Souls and he

(18:53):
did a lot of guest appearances Night Writer, Perfect Strangers, Valerie,
and Days of Our Lives. In nineteen sixty five, that's
how long this show has been on the air. Oh
my god, A long time. Nineteen sixty five. So yeah,
go to Ed Wild.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Yeah, and there's I bet there's somebody out there that's
been watching since the beginning.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Please please chime in, please comment if you've been right.
Days are like, well, I think they'd have to be
pretty old. Why I think? No, I mean my dad
was born.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
If they started watching it in sixty five, they would
have been what twelve?

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Maybe? Yeah? Probably?

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Okay, so that born in fifty No, I guess it
wouldn't be that they'd be younger than my mom.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah. Wow that sorry mom. We love you, Janice, Yeah,
I love Janie. Anyway, So let's get to the reason
weybe on. Okay, so we're starting with the teaser. In
the kitchen, Jesse and Becky are holding the babies when
Jesse throws out a suggestion, whoever burps their baby the
fastest gets out of diaper duty for the entire day,

(19:55):
which seems like a bizarre game. It's like, aren't you tired?
Like why why are we having a competition? I guess
because Jesse's coos. Everything's yeah, everything's a competition with him.
But I'm just thought, Okay, if you're I guess when
you're sleep, you know, sleepless nights, you've kind of lost
your mind a little bit, and you want to play
a burping chest all right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
It's like when the pump starts talking to you. You know,
you never know the pump, the breast pump in the
middle of the night, when you're like delirious, I swear
it starts saying things. And there's other women out there
who know exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
I know, I don't know if I've ever experienced so
the breast pump talking.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
I'm not mine.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
I used to tell let's talk about breast pumps. Here
we go.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
Now, I swear mine made a noise that sounded like
somebody going best side west side, like west side over
and over again, and I was like, is this thing
throwing up the w like what are we doing?

Speaker 1 (20:51):
It was a very West coast uh uh pump. It
had opinions. Yeah, I had.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Opinions in the East coast, West coast rap battle thing. Yeah,
definitely a westcoasts.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
It's loyal. That pump was loyal, and it's.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
Please if anyone else out there is like yep, I
was delirious and heard weird stuff too, Like.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
These made me feel less crazy. Fan Ritos, you have
a lot of homework this week. You gotta tell us
lots of things, lot of lots of Yeah, my breast
pump never talked to me, but I did when I
was when I went back to work in a normal job.
I worked at my alma mater at my Wittier College
and the Foreign Study office. Anyways, I was pumping in
the office when the cleaning crew came in, and so

(21:33):
I was just like, Oh, here's me in my topless
pump pumping breasts. So right, I mean, you know, normalized pumping, absolutely,
and the sounds that the pump makes and the voices
in your head.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
If yours talks to you, that's okay, just don't answer it.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
AnyWho. Okay. So Becky for some reason is up for
this challenge because she has Alex and he is the
king of Gas.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
I'm gonna call him the prince compared to Dave, but then.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
Right, yes, Dave is definitely the King of Gas. Jesse
defends his team, saying that Nicky wants it more, and
we see a close up on the baby who is
staring off the stage and.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Blankly the little elmer fudd faces. Yeah, I know, your
little round heads.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
I love these babies so much. The renterrheas were just
beyond adorable. So Jesse counts them down and they start
burping the babies with determination. Michelle walks downstairs and asks
what's going on. Jesse explains, well, we're having a little
contest to see who can burp the fastest. Michelle lets
out of burp on command and throws her arms up,

(22:43):
declaring I won. I'm still the burp champion, and she
exits the kitchen while still holding up her arms in victory,
before turning to Jesse and Becky and shouting, in your face,
and that's laser sassine.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
Michelle did not know she could burp on command.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
What if she gonna do, the album would be impressive.
Do you think that was like looped? Like, there's no
way they did. I can't burn demand no, because it's
a lot of people can. But I don't think they could.
I don't think they That was definitely loop. Definitely looped, okay,
because it didn't seem Usually probably are very obviously looped,
but this did not.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
This was this blendid. Well, yeah, well Dave probably did it.
I'm Dave probably made the Burke noise. Yeah, he's qualified.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
He's the most qualified if you want to make bodily noises.
Next in the kitchen. Becky's taking the twins to aunt
Ida's where they're gonna be again. Didn't she already take
him to aunt IDAs?

Speaker 2 (23:43):
I mean, I guess, no, no, And I showed up
at the house. Remember they were left the two weeks ago.
They were trying to get out, you know, smooth sailing,
and they brought all of the things with them, and
then an IDAs showed up to the house.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Oh no memory of that. My sense of time is
very off. But okay. So aunt Iida. She's like the
recurring character that we never that we never really hear
from again. So okay. But she likes to kiss babies.
We see a close up on one baby who is
staring at the set lights above. Just always cracks me up.

(24:16):
Then Joey barges in with his hockey gear and grunts,
all right, boys, let's get out there and make Channel
eight a winner because we're lean. And Jesse walks in
and half heartedly states we're mean, and then Danny jumps
in and excitedly shouts and we're clean. Becky looks surprised
as she tells Jesse, I've never seen you on ice skates.

(24:36):
Do you know anything about hockey? The shade I'm so
here for the shade. Jesse responds, I took the kids
to smurfs on ice. What's to know? The point is
the boys are back and we're having a good time.
Danny enthusiastically says, that's right, One for all and all
for one, just like the Three Musketeers, Athos and Jesse

(24:59):
Chi in Porthos and Jeff. Joey gives a girly wave
and a net. I laughed out loud. That was good
like that. Yeah. Jesse of course hits him on the head,
reminding him that they're not the Mousketeers, they're the Musketeers.
Then Danny asks, why do I have to be the goalie?

(25:20):
Joey tells him it's the safest position on the ice,
and Danny scoffs. Then why am I wearing two hundred
pounds of foam rubber? Then the doorbell rings, and as
Danny wakes his way to the door, he asks how
fast are those pucks going anyway? And Joey casually states, oh,
not fast, ninety two hundred miles per hour. Danny gives

(25:41):
a sheepish grin. Maybe I should just sit on the
bench and make you guys some hot Coco. Danny struggles
to grasp the door handle with all of his gear on,
but he finally opens it to find Vicki. She greets
Danny with a kiss and tells him she can't wait
to see her co host in action. So there this
this has gone fast. Yeah, I feel like it went

(26:04):
from zero zero two hund Yeah, we're already on stage
greeting our partner and kissing them at the front door.
This is there.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
The last episode they were making out on the couch
and the kids caught them.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
I think that might have been the one you were.
I meant that's the one I missed. Okay, so that's
what seat for me. Yeah, it was.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Yeah, you've made a major time jump, but it's still
even even. I was like, oh, we've just okay, so
like it's just a thing.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
I guess they sort of decided to make it, make it,
go for it.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
They've got the chemistry. Why not.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
You know they talked to h hr Is Fine Movies.
They're like, don't worry about it.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
Well, because she calls him her co host too, you
think at this stage she'd be like, Oh, I can't
wait to see my boyfriend in action. Maybe it's not
official yet. I don't know. I don't greet my I
don't greet you with a kiss and saying hello. Can't
wait to see my co host in action? Yeah, well
you should obviously a little little left out. Yeah, if

(27:02):
we were in person, guaranteed that it's not like you
haven't kissed me before. This is true? How are we
taking just side journeys today? I'm like, what is wrong
with us? I don't know. I'm already sweating. Oh boy,
So Danny grins, and he quickly yells, guys, what are
we waiting for? Hot coco, Let's get out on the ice.

(27:24):
Jesse rubs Nikki and Alex's bald heads for good luck,
but he tells Becky that if they don't start growing
hair soon, he's buying them. Baby two pays. Then Danny
says goodbye to DJ. She wishes him luck and tells
him not to get hurt. He insists, I can take
care of myself. Then he turns on the drama. But

(27:44):
if anything happens to me, I love you so much,
and he gives her a giant hug. He thanks her
once more for giving up her Saturday to babysit, and
she shrugs, it's no problem. I was supposed to go
out with Steve, but he never called. It's not a
big deal. Okay, so he's a total hunk, but it's
no big deal. Did I say that already? Because it's

(28:04):
no big deal, it's obviously a big deal. It's very
big deal, very big deal. Yeah. Danny reminds her that
Stephanie needs to finish her book report, and Michelle can't
go outside because she still has the sniffles. DJ nods
with understanding. Danny admits he owes her one. She gives
a hopeful smile, like a red Mustang convertible. Danny narrows

(28:26):
his eyes before giving her a cheesy grin. No, I mean,
like one more big dad hug.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Don't you think it's a little a little premature for
them to get into all the hockey gear.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Because oh yeah, do that on the door? How the
hell are they gonna drive there? Well, Jesse's probably gonna
be on a sororcycle. Yeah, Jesse's on his motorcycle.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
I mean what, Joey, the last car we saw him
with was a yellow Volkswagon the bug.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
I mean yeah, why, well, you know, the joke's gotta work,
but it.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Did like it hit me as he was like, come on, guys,
let's go. And then I was like, wait a minute,
how are you How are you going to get in
the car.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah, they're already suited in, Like you know, they have
not dressing rooms what do you call it? Locker rooms?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Dressing rooms where they do the thing?

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Yeah, where's crafty? Right, yeah exactly. So next in the kitchen,
Stephanie is being studious, sporting her Walter glasses as she
works on her book report. The glasses have stayed Waldo glasses. Well, Walter,
they look like wal You do look like Waldo, and

(29:40):
you're so cute like these glasses. There's been more continuity
with your glasses than like any other storyline.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
And then came crazy that that's what they picked, you
know what I mean? Like those those glasses are cute
and they're kind of you look the other what were
the other?

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Like?

Speaker 2 (29:59):
What did I say now to you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (30:01):
We gotta is property Bob still around? Like we need
to question, we have.

Speaker 2 (30:06):
Questions, Roger Montesano, what happened?

Speaker 1 (30:09):
Yeah, we we we need we have questions. But look,
Waldo was big at the time, so you were very
on trend.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
I'm sure I had Where's Waldo birthday?

Speaker 1 (30:18):
We've discussed this. You've got a Where's Waldo? Did we
discussed the birthday party? Yes? I did. Sorry, the menopause
is the menopause brain?

Speaker 2 (30:27):
Maybe well I might be just one of us and
be like, no, we totally talked about this and we didn't.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
So one of us is having menopause brain. We don't
know which one, but that's okay. We'll we'll just carry
on it cancels each other out if we both have
it right. Uh So, Michelle walks in and she sits
right next to Steph before doing a big sniffle. Steph
lowers her glasses and asks, don't you have anything better
to do than sniffle in my ear while I'm working?

(30:54):
Michelle responds, I don't know where it comes from, but
it just keeps coming. Then the doorbell rings and j
tells them she'll answer it. My dad nuts doing that. Oh,
my dad would be like, just blow your nose, your nose.
It didn't like the feeling. It was so weird. I
didn't like it. You didn't like to blow your nose?

Speaker 2 (31:12):
No, I didn't like the feeling of it as a kid.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
It didn't.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
It felt funny on the outside of my face.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Really yeah, but you so, just the feeling of snot
continuously going up and down your nasal cavity, that was fine.
But yeah, I didn't want it outside. If you touched
my outside face, that was it felt weird.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
I didn't laugh, you know what I mean. Didn't like it.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
I rather just hack style thing. So okay, well, there
you go.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
It's my little looks, my little quarks.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
You're allowed to quirks. You're allowed to have quarks, and
I will make fun of you until the end of time,
you guys, as we do. So DJ opens the front
door to find the Steve Peters, Scott Wingers in the
house ladies and gentlemen, and he looks like he's wearing
a wig. The hair, that hair, let me tell you, Wow,

(32:01):
that was a choice he.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
That was he was bringing the mullets back mullets.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Yes, the big hair, big mullets. Yeah, that is a
statement choice. It was a statement hair. Yeah, it was
a statement.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
And he also looked like he could fit three more
people into that letterman jack.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
It was oversized. I loved it though. Besides the hair,
like Scott Look's exactly the same choice the voice like,
I'm like, he hasn't changed, just the hair is whiter now,
but that's it. He's exactly the same. So potentially a
little more neurotic.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he usually more neurotic easily,
but yeah, definitely looks still the same.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
I love it. I'm so glad he's officially I know
he has arrived. He's here. So DJ is obviously shocked
to see him and asks what he's doing here. Steve asks,
didn't you get my note about going to the movies?
I gave it to Maria to give to Kimmy to
give to you in home ack djsfore cell phones? Yeah,
this is how you communicate. You get a pass. No,

(33:05):
it's around and home ech. You know, I wish they
still taught HOMEC. Like that's good. That's a useful class,
way more useful than like algebra or things like that.
Homeg man omeck. So DJ shakes her head knowingly. Ugh, no,
wonder I didn't get it. Kimmy always ditches HOMEC. She
says she's going to marry a doctor and get a maid. Kimmy,

(33:28):
she's you know, she's she's just very race car driver
so she's probably got a bad Oh yeah, that's true.
Well whatever, Kimmy, she she's a role model in some
ways and not a role model in other ways. We
just accept her the way she is. Yeah. So Steve
throws his arms up in the air and says, let's
go to the movies. DJ happily starts to walk out

(33:50):
the door, but stops herself when she realizes she has
to babysit. Steve's size. H, that's too bad, but DJ
quickly reassures him, wait, I can go, and Steve wonders
what about babysitting. DJ suggests that they just take her
little sisters with them. Steve looks hesitant, and DJ assures
him that he will love them. They're adorable. Then she

(34:14):
sprints out of the living room and makes a beeline
for the kitchen. DJ announces to Stephan Michelle, we're going
to the movies. Put on your coats and act adorable,
but Michelle shakes her head. I cannot leave this house,
dad said, DJ argues, Well, Dad's not here. I'm in charge,
so that makes me dad. Steph chimes in, until the

(34:36):
real Dad comes back and makes you grounded. It's got
a point, yeh. DJ insists, you don't get it. The
hottest guy in the junior class is in our living room.
He has his own car and he can grow a
mustache in less than a month, which made me laugh
because it takes Tate and dates sporting a mustache right now.

(34:56):
That is it can't shave it off because I can't
write it. She's too long, right, yeah, corrects me. Get it.

Speaker 2 (35:03):
Most mostly don't get like the like the facial hair
doesn't really kick in until.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
Like they're thirty, you know, and then it was like terrible.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
As you get older, my friends just you'll be yeah, wait,
Terri will disappear from one place and reappear in another.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
Oh, it's just it's it's fascinating and terrifying all at
the same time. So then Steve walks in and asks
DJ if she really wants to do this. DJ laughs,
Oh sure, I'm sure. She wrangles her sisters and brings
them over to Steve, saying I'd like you to meet
a very good friend of mine. She introduces Stephanie and
Michelle to Steve, and Michelle boldly declares, let's see you

(35:41):
grow a mushtash. Steph happily chimes in, not that I
don't trust you, Steve Arino, and she gives him a
friendly pat on the shoulder to emphasize it. But can
I see your driver's license? DJ lets out a fake
laugh and says to her date, I told you they
were a door. Steve realizes they have to go because

(36:03):
thunder Raceway starts in half an hour. Steph is instantly
opposed to this thunder Raceway. I believe that's rated PG.
Parental guidance suggested, No parents, no guidance, No Gog's pretty benign, right,
I mean, was like every Disney movie is PG PG right,

(36:24):
so Steph is very like following rules, very following.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
I feel like if they made it PG thirteen, that
would have been like because then DJ and Steve could
have gone.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
By Yeah, yeah, that they should have had it at
thirteen in there. But that's all right, Stuph, I has stuff.
Are you always a goodie too? Shoot? Like a rule
follower through the whole series. I feel like you.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Get Remember, I get a car with people I don't know.
I've got a smoking friend.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Ge smoking, I'm smoking friends, right yeah, so yeah, I
feel like a little later right now, you're still young enough,
you're still following rules to a te Okay, so DJ
size Steph give me a break. The only G rated
movie out there is The Littlest Sea Lion. Michelle and
Stephanie gasp. Michelle exclaims I've been dying to see that,

(37:16):
and Steph nods in agreement. Michelle continues to imitate a
Sea Lion while DJ apologizes to Steve for the hold up,
but Steve doesn't mind. He agrees to see that movie
instead and gives DJ a smile. Hopefully we won't even
be watching the movie. Michelle cluelessly asks why not, and

(37:41):
DJ changes the subject quickly. Okay, no more questions. Everybody
in the car. Steph runs out of the kitchen and
claims the front seat. Then Michelle asks Steve want to
hear something amazing and he nods sure kid. As Steve
bends down to listen to Michelle, she does a big
sniffle in his ear. DJ laughs and says, once again,

(38:02):
I told you they were adorable. So Michelle is patient
zero for whatever plague is about what she is just
spreading her sniffles all over the city. Next we are
in the movie theater and Stephanie is going through her
checklist of theater snacks. She has drinks, popcorn, mint licorice,

(38:25):
chocolate raisins, and of course, bond bonds. Michelle is holding
a full container of snacks herself. When she realizes you
forgot the nachos, Steph warns her, let's not be pigs.
I love you and Michelle. Stephan Michelle are so funny
in this hole. Yeah, this is a funny episode for them.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
Yeah, this is they're kind of together on this.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah. Yeah, you're just the clueless sisters going along with everything, right, fantastic.
So then DJ runs over and asks Stephanie for her change.
Stephanie scoffs change. If there was any money left, I
would have bought nachos, probably bought all of it for
twenty bucks, right like eighteen seventy four. This would be
like a dollar and change. This would be a mortgage payment.

(39:10):
If you were to buy this many so snacks now,
this would be three hundred dollars. Oh my gosh, that
would be yeah, just painfully, painfully expensive. So you take
your own snacks in. You get a big purse. I
mean not that we're advocating that, but if you have
a big purse.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
You just if you can put your snacks that you
want to bring in your back.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Don't be ridiculous about it. People have brought like a
bucket of fried chicken.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
That's just nobody needs.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
Somebody needs fried chicken. Being ridiculous. Just put some in there.
Go a bottle of water.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
You get your little candy bars somewhere that they're not
eighteen dollars.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
Yeah, go to go to the not sponsored by AMC. Okay,
well not anymore anymore. Yeah, like those damn girls, you
are sponsored by Snickers. Yeah. I love Snickers. That's like
one of my You got the you got the you
got the chocolate, you got your protein, you got your sugar.
It's the most beautiful those Are you angry?

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Yea?

Speaker 1 (40:07):
The Snickers? Yeah, this is just one of the most
perfect candy bars. Anyways, where are we? Oh so D,
I don't know what's happening. DJ's out of money with us?
I don't know DJ, She's she feels awkward, and she
makes her way back over to Steve, and she admits
she doesn't have enough money to pay for her sisters.

(40:30):
Steve says he only has enough for the two of
them and suggests that maybe we should just forget this
whole thing. But DJ doesn't want this date to end,
so she says, Kimmy just started working here, maybe she'll
have an idea famous last words like this never works.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Out, DJ trust Kimmy. Never never go to Kimmy coop.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
A solution, right, Oh, and Steve quips, well that would
be a first. Then we see Kimmy, who is currently
in charge of checking tickets. She shouts to two moviegoers,
don't spill anything. I'm the one who has to clean up.
You know, she's not she's not employee of the month,
but she's the first day. It is first day, Yeah,

(41:12):
and loving this pink uniform so cute with your little
bow tie and vest. I felt so I felt ely hair.
I loved this look mostly because it wasn't neon and
you were like most because yeah, exactly the most. It
was the most normal thing I had worn on the
show in a long time, So I felt very cool.
You know, even though that the light pink probably wouldn't

(41:33):
be fashionable today. But that's tells her in that sells
her a thing. Hey, everything comes back, Everything comes back
to the nineties, I'm just saying. So DJ begs Kimmy
for help and asks if she can borrow ten dollars.
Kimmy shrugs, yeah, sure, but I can't get it right now.
I'm on duty. If I leave, kids will sneak in.

(41:53):
DJ's face lights up. Kimmy, that's the answer. You have
to sneak my sisters in. Kimmy gasps and horror. What
you're asking me to commit a crime my first day
on the job. I'm shocked.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
You just made the same exact face that you did
in the show, Like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
And the whole thing was an exact replica. Great, that's
the origin. This is the origin of My eleven, My eleven.
The Kimmy furrowed brown right here. So DJ questions you're
not going to do it, and Kimmy doesn't hesitate. Well,
of course I'll do it, but still, I'm shocked. That

(42:37):
was great, So DJ size and relief. Thanks, you're my hero.
Then Steve walks up with Michelle and Stephanie. He hands
Kimmy two tickets, and when Stephanie and Michelle walk in,
Kimmy quickly shoes them along, but Stephanie stops dead in
her tracks. Hold it, where's our stubs? DJ nervously chimes in, Uh,

(42:59):
you don't need any tell him Kimmy. Kimmy quickly makes
up a lie. Yeah, that's right, because you're the one
millionth customer. Stephanie is thrilled. She asks, all right, how
do I win a new car? Kimmy cleverly responds, no,
you win a free pass for you and a guest.
Stephanie thinks long and hard about who she should take,

(43:22):
when Michelle butts in, what are you nuts? Take me?
And they walk into the theater. Yet I blame the
theater for you know this? Who who lets people into
buy snacks before you've paid for your tickets? Security?

Speaker 2 (43:37):
That's the they will not.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
Yeah, mister Ed is the one who's on the hook.
That is why. Think about it? When you go to
the movies, Now you walk in to the snack area.
Oh you do. I haven't been to the movies in yeah,
one hundred years. Wrong, We're wrong. I thought you buy
it outside the theater and then walk into the snacks
after you've paid for your ticket. But movie places do.

(44:01):
Some places don't.

Speaker 2 (44:04):
No, I know, I no that I think about it,
now that I think about it. The movie theaters that
I go to, the snack.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
Area is always open, okay, And then the the once
you like, get your snacks and go to the theater,
then you present your ticket to the So this is correct.
They're doing it correct. Correct. Well, I don't like this
because what do they think the casual passer by is
going to come by a ten dollars water bottle? Like? No, Like,

(44:31):
why do they? Why do some people.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
Want movie popcorn when they're just passing by?

Speaker 1 (44:35):
I don't know. It doesn't have an often with this.
I need to talk to the CEO of AMC, Like what,
I don't agree with this because all of this would
have been solved if they had just put the ticket
booth outside the theater. But then we wouldn't have a
twenty two minute episode. So okay, where are we? Oh,
we're inside the theater. Now. They choose their seats and

(44:56):
stuff plops down right beside Steve. Admitting this is cozy,
DJ tells them it'll be even cozier when they move
behind her and Steve and pushes the girls over to
their new seats. As DJ and Steve get settled into
their seats, the lights dim and a pink panther cartoon
starts to play. Stephanie and Michelle gasped with excitement. They

(45:18):
both start to sing that that, that, and I won't
say anymore because we don't have the rights for that
and it can't afford them. DJ angrily shushes them and
Wish whisper yells I don't want to hear a peep
out of you too until the movie's over. They both
respond peep just to annoy her classical I would to

(45:43):
my mom. Jane's oh yeah, yeah, don't worry, I've gotten
it back and drove. Oh oh, I'm sure. I'm sure.
I was the same way. I had two older brothers,
so like whatever, you can, don't touch me, and so
you touch like I'm not touching you. Uh So. Then
Steph notices that Steve is trying to make a move

(46:05):
on DJ. She tells Michelle watch this. He's gonna put
his arm around DJ. He's getting closer, closer, and then
Michelle screams at the top of her lungs, DJ, watch out.
DJ stands up and demands, that's it, you too in
the back row, right now, move it, move it, move it.

(46:26):
As they're move into the back STEPH raises her eyebrows
and declares, how rude. Once they're gone, DJ reclaims her
seat next to Steve and he puts an arm around her. Meanwhile,
a movie theater employee is walking around checking ticket stubs.
He walks up to stephan Michelle and says, I'm sorry
to bother you, but we've had some kids switching theaters.

(46:48):
Could I check your ticket stubs? Stephanie boasts we don't
need any I'm the one millionth customer and this is
my guest, one millionth and one. Well, Steph is so
proud like this is a shining moment. Thrilled yeah uh,
he responds, you better come with me, and Steph grins

(47:08):
at her sister. I bet we want a new car.
Then Kimmy walks into the theater and sees her boss
walking the two girls out. Kimmy rushes up to Stephen DJ,
who are making out. She flashes her light on them
and says, WHOA sorry, I'll wait smooch away and Kimmy
or no. DJ asks what is it. Kimmy admits, my

(47:29):
manager just busted your towropie sisters. He's taking them into
his office. DJ starts to panic. If he calls my dad,
I'm dead, and Kimmy frowns, you're dead. I could lose
my job they better not squeal on me. We we
smash cut to the manager's office, where the camera zooms
in on Stephanie's spelling out Kimmy's last name letter by

(47:51):
letter I B B L E R. Gibbler. That was
a great little smash cut right there. So funny. And
these are these moviegoers, these theatergoers say, this is the
most obnoxious. Again. The Tanners exist in a.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
World where they don't have to worry about anybody else.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
I don't care they do. I would like to stop it. No,
you're not going to do that. The Tanners are those
people that you hate anywhere you go. But quiet theater traveling, yes,
this they are just a hot mess where everything goes
and there's no nobody's annoyed by this. It's just this

(48:33):
magical land of exceptance. It's the Truman Show. It really
is the Tanner Show. Yeah, I mean it actually literally is.
So I guess, yeah it is. Uh So we take
a commercial break. When we come back, we're still in
the manager's office and the man is perplexed. Now, why
in the world would Kimmy Gibbler tell you that you're

(48:53):
the one millionth customer. We've only been open a week.
Step Size, well, sir, I'm so to have to tell
you this, but and she leans in closer and says,
you've hired a nutcase. Michelle sniffles and the manager thinks
she's crying. She explains, I'm not crying. I got the sniffles,
and she sniffles once more and exclaims that was a

(49:15):
good one. Then DJ storms in here you are, girls,
I am so disappointed in you, and the manager asks
who are you? She explains, I'm their sister, the good sister.
What scam did they run this time? The old one
millionth customer story. Steph starts to defend herself, but DJ

(49:35):
quickly covers her mouth. She continues, shame on you, blaming sweet,
poor innocent Kimmy, sir. They may look cute, but don't
be fooled. They've been sneaking into g rated movies all
over town. In fact, they're known as Snake and Sniffles.
It sounds like something from like a fantasy book. You're right,

(49:58):
I feel like I can buy like a a butter
beer or something there. It's a very it's giving Harry's
giving old English pub. Yeah, it is the quill, a
quill and a parchment paper. So the manager says he
called their home but no one answered. DJ insists, well,

(50:20):
that's too bad. My father needs to know about this.
Don't worry. I'll make sure they get punished like they've
never been punished before. Steph stares at her big sister
in utter shock as DJ declares, snake and sniffles, let's go.
She escorts them out of the office, and Michelle realizes
she's sniffles because she has the sniffles. Stephanie turns to

(50:44):
the manager with a word of advice. The popcorn could
be a little fresher. Steph has opinions. Man, she's not
afraid to share them. She's going crawling up the ladder
here just beyond. I want to speak to the manager please.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Well, She's like, look, if I'm getting kicked out anyway,
might as well let you know.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
Yeah, she's just trying to be helpful, you know. Yeah,
fresher popcorn. Kimmy yells after them and stay out. Her
manager is about to say something, but Kimmy shoots him
a quick thumbs up before running out of the office.
Next we are in Michelle and Stephanie's room. DJ sits
Michelle and Stephanie down and admits, we aren't out of

(51:22):
the woods yet. We can't tell Dad what really happened,
so we have to tell him what didn't happen. STEP's
face is filled with worry. You mean you want us
to lie to dad. DJ shakes her head. I don't
want you to lie. I just wanted you to tell
a fib a tiny little fiblet. She questions, why so

(51:42):
you won't get in trouble. DJ sits down to remind
her you didn't do your book report, so you're in
trouble too, and Steph frowns rats. Michelle asks, am I
in trouble like snakes? DJ responds no, but one day
you will be, and Stephanie and I will be there
to bail you out. So will you help us? Michelle

(52:04):
thinks about it before declaring, all right, I'm in. DJ
goes on to explain, now, the secret to a good lie,
uh fiblet is details. She tells Stephanie, you worked on
your book report all day. For lunch, you had a
bloney sandwich sliced diagonally, with a glass of chocolate milk
and a ho ho face. Steph's face sours, Can I

(52:27):
have a ding? Dong instead of a ho ho, and
DJ's fine with it. I look, how seriously you're taking this.
You're like details matter? Yeah, yeah, I'm not a fan
of the ho ho, so I need to I'm not.
Nobody would ever buy that I ate a ho ho.
It's got to be a ding dong. Dad would know
it's way more believable that way. Then she walks over
to Michelle and explains when Dad asks you what you

(52:48):
did today, you say, DJ and I played candy Land
and I won. But Michelle wants a ding dong now too,
so she insists if Snake gets one, then Sniffles should
get one too. DJ size, Okay, you get a ding
dong for winning Candyland. Michelle grins, Wow, I had a
great day. But Stephanie doesn't believe this will work. DJ

(53:11):
assures her it can't miss as long as we stick
to our story. She asks Michelle once again, what did
we do today? And Michelle responds the I went to
the movies with you and got in trouble. All hope
drains from Steph's face as she says we're doomed, but
DJ won't give up. She reminds Michelle of the plan

(53:31):
you played Candyland with me and won a ding dong.
Remember Michelle hits her head? Oh yeah, can I take
back my dj and stuff. Both give each other troubled
glances in response, there's always a weak link, always, there's
always one. Never trust a five year old ever. Meanwhile,

(53:51):
in the living room, Jesse, Joey, and Danny walk in
after playing hockey and they're arguing about the game. Jesse
defends his skating talents. Come on, get off my case.
So I wasn't the best skater out there, Joey quips,
you call that skating Your butt never left the ice,
Jesse argues, even flat on my back, I got some

(54:12):
good shots off. Danny nodds, yeah, you got the winning
goal for the other team. Jesse argues, well, the goalie
should have blocked that shot. Joey chimes in, or any shot, Danny,
What the heck were you doing on your hands and
knees anyway? Danny admits he was cleaning the slush around
his area. Joey argues, Danny, it's not an area. It

(54:36):
happens to be a goal crease, and you're supposed to
be defending it. Danny insists I was defending it. Until
it got all icky. Then Jesse turns to Joey and
tells him that he's taken this hockey stuff way too seriously.
Joey calls him dippity do head, the dippity doo Jo
dippity doo. Jesse shoots back by calling him Elmer Fudface.

(55:00):
They aggressively throw their sticks on the floor as things
begin to start to tense up.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Things begin to start just maybe one day eventually tense
up exactly.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
Danny quickly jumps up and breaks them up. He asks,
whatever happened to the three musketeers. Jesse responds, musketeer, this
mop and Glow. Danny throws his stick on the floor
at this insult, and he says, no, it's mister mop
and Glow to you. Like the fact that they take
these names so seriously crass. And they continue with their

(55:36):
arguing and yelling. Meanwhile, at the front door, Becky is
back with the twins. Why is she not taking the
back door where there's not one hundred steps to take?
I don't know, but that's where she is.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Well, there was a giant fair going on in the backyard,
with like a ferris wheel and stuff. It's very hard
they had the road closed down that flinds through it,
so she was like, I guess I'll just have to
go round in front.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
I bet she she grabbed DJ's very first horse and
just hopped on that with the fans, and these took
care of. Yeah. That's the only logical way that she.

Speaker 2 (56:16):
The only logical way is that she carried both of
those babies up at.

Speaker 1 (56:19):
Once, one in each hand. Yeah, up those steps. That's
just that's that's that's how Becky does things. She's superwoman.
She sets the twins down by the door and proudly
reminds them that they made it through their first visit
with aunt Ida, and they have a lot of lipstick
on their face to show for it. As Becky enters
the living room, she sees the guys on the floor

(56:41):
rustling each other. She casually says, hello, boys, and they
all look up from their tangled positions and respond in unison. Hello.
They get up and tell Becky they're just horse and around.
It's a guy thing. Becky sarcastically tells the twins, Oh,
isn't that cute? Dad and his buddies rough housing like
little boys. Well, I guess that's how you strengthen those

(57:05):
bonds of male friendship, just like those chimps we saw
last week at the zoo. And with that, she exits
the living room. They all agree they're no better than
chimps and that wrestling around on the carpet isn't going
to prove anything. So Jesse suggests an alternative, want to
see who can do the most push ups without hesitation.

(57:26):
They all drop down and start doing push ups as
fast as they can, men in men, and they're stupid,
like they're stupid competitions. It's like, come on. Uh. Meanwhile,
up in Stephanie Michelle's room, Steph is working on her
book report when Michelle sniffles directly into her ear. Then

(57:46):
DJ runs in, warning the girls that their dad is coming.
She gives them keywords to remember their made up stories,
and right on time, Danny walks in. He says hi
to the girls and they casually greet him. In return.
Danny beams at DJ, It's great to know that I
have a mature, responsible daughter that I can count on,

(58:07):
and she cheerfully responds, thanks Dad, and then there's a
voiceover of DJ's thoughts as she thinks, I am scum,
I am lower than scum. I'm the scum they scrape
off of scum. Danny walks over to Stephanie and asks
if she's finished her book report. Stephanie recounts her lie,

(58:27):
Sure did, And then I had a baloney sandwich diagonally sliced,
and a refreshing glass of chocolate milk and a ding
dong would raise so many red flags? I know? Is
it so rehearsed? Right? You're like, I didn't ask about
any of that. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
When the kids just offer up, like oh, and then
this happen, you're like.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
Wow, yeah, if it's not a one word to tell
me that, yeah, yeah, it's way too detailed to be true.
And DJ thinks to herself, that sounds so fake, But
Danny grins at steph saying it sounds like you had
a really productive day. DJ thinks he bought it and smiles.

(59:06):
Then Danny walks over to Michelle and asks how her
day went. She taps her chin and thinks on it
for a second, and DJ thinks we're busted, but Michelle
tells her lie flawlessly, I played candy Land with DJ,
and I want a ding dong. DJ is ecstatic that
they pulled it off, but then her conscience takes over.

(59:28):
She thinks to herself, I've turned my sisters into liars.
She tilts her head and thinks, but good liars, and
she smiles to herself. Then Danny has an idea. Since
you girls were cooped up in the house all day,
why don't we go to a movie tonight. DJ's thoughts
quickly panic, Uh oh, he knows something. Danny continues, how

(59:50):
about the Littlest Sea Lion? Have you guys seen it?
And Steph responds no, Dad, I can honestly say we haven't.
Then he walks over to DJ and puts his hand
on her shoulder and praises her. You know, deej, since
you're becoming so responsible, maybe it's time I raised your allowance. Huh.
He hugs her, and now her inner thoughts are going rampant.

(01:00:14):
I don't deserve a raise. Danny continues, how does two
fifty more a week sound? And DJ's inner guilt continues
to creep in. Why is he torturing me? I can't
take it anymore. She lets go of the hug and
says aloud, I can't take it anymore, and she decides
to unveil the truth. Dad, Steve came over and we

(01:00:35):
took Stephanie and Michelle to the movies. We didn't have
enough money to pay for them, so I made Kimmy
sneak them in, and then we all got caught, and
then I forced them to lie to you about the
whole thing. After the truth is out, she lets out
a sigh of relief and thinks, I feel so much better.
But Danny is furious. He stares at her in disbelief.

(01:00:57):
DJ sees his expression and thinks that's a bad face,
and she says aloud, I'm really sorry, Dad. He nods,
so am I. I can't believe this. Stephanie admits it's
all true. The whole boloney sandwich thing never happened. Yes,
that's hard to believe. That is never happened. DJ says,

(01:01:20):
go ahead, Dad ground me, and Danny nods, all right,
you're grounded. All three of you. Stephan Michelle are in
disbelief that they're being included. Michelle asks, even me, your
little princess. DJ tries to defend them, saying they don't
deserve to be grounded, but Danny insists, ultimately, you're each

(01:01:41):
responsible for the choices that you made. And you're gonna
have to accept the consequences. Such a great lesson, really,
such a great lesson. Yes, yes, but I don't think
it applies in this situation because of the ages of
Michelle and Stephanie, right, you know, I get that I
was their authority figure and you guys did protest, but

(01:02:04):
she made you go along with it anyway, So I
blame DJ. I don't think you guys shouldet punished.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
I would say this is one of those you know,
we've had this, these situations where the older one drags
the younger one, but then the younger one's kind of like, okay,
let's go. Yeah, you know, there's usually there's punishment for everyone,
but it's the instigators, usually the instigators.

Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
Yes, is the number one problem I think did He
never says what the punishments are though, So I don't
know if you guys got a lighter punishment that means
what no no friends, no phone, no.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
Yeah, you don't get to go anywhere and yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:38):
Yeah Michelle this is every day, you know, she has.

Speaker 2 (01:02:40):
To stay home alone all the time.

Speaker 1 (01:02:44):
So maybe Michelle does have a lighter punishment because that's
just her normal, her normal daily routine. Uh, so uh anyways, okay,
so good lesson. But Michelle is like, what huh? So
Danny puts it simply, you do the crime, you do
the time. Michelle is bummed that she won't be able
to see the little sea Lion. She missed him twice today.

(01:03:06):
After Danny leaves the room, Stephanie sits down with DJ
and asks, what happened? We got away with the whole
thing and you blew it. DJ admits I couldn't go
through with it. You ever hear that little voice in
your head saying this is wrong? Steph nods, sure, but
I told it to shut up and listen to you.
Such a great line. That's so funny. Michelle asks if

(01:03:29):
she has a little voice in her head and DJ explains, yeah,
it's called your conscience, and when you do something you
know is wrong, your conscience reminds you over and over
again until you do something about it. Michelle shakes her head.
It sounds like a pain in the neck. DJ apologizes
to her sister. I'm really sorry I got you guys grounded.

(01:03:52):
Thanks for backing me up. I'll tell you what, Steph,
I'm gonna help you with this book report. And after
that Michelle, you and I are going to play candy Land,
and I promised to spend more time with both of you. Guys.
Give me a hug, the girls leaning for a hug,
and DJ adds, hey, and you guys can hang out
in my room anytime you want. And then DJ's conscience says, whoa, DJ,

(01:04:14):
don't get carried away, and they all hug again, and
that is our show.

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
This.

Speaker 1 (01:04:25):
Yeah, I love the kid focused storylines. And I'm biased
because I am a kid that was in the show,
but I love it. No, this one was really funny.

Speaker 2 (01:04:34):
I feel like Michelle and Steph had some good little
zingers in it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
Could get together.

Speaker 2 (01:04:38):
Steve, Yeah, it's really like a kid centric thing. Kimmy
is hilarious. I've seen where DJ and Kimmy like throw
the girls under the bus to there, like the whole
thing is just like everyone sort of. I just thought
it was a really funny episode.

Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
I was it was. It was very funny. Yeah, I
just I don't The hockey stuff was fine, it was silly.
It was funny. Becky didn't have a whole lot to
do except carry babies in and out of the house.
I mean, the kid's storyline was for her. Yes, it's
super light. Yeah, and I like that DJ. It's DJ
the one. It's not like she got caught, she's the

(01:05:17):
one that fest up. And so I'm like, Okay, that's
good character.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
But I think exactly, I think that's also an important lesson, like,
you know, you admit when you're wrong, when you're wrong,
tell the truth and own.

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
Your mistakes, fess up, and you do the crime. You do,
you do the time.

Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
That's yeah, I mean, unless she's a really good lawyer.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
True. Yeah, but yeah, I know. I love this episode.
I remember it. Lots of lots of new sets, the
movie theater lobby and then the seats like to a
lot a lot of the Adam has gone. Oh that's
where it was missing. Yeah, down down on that far end. Yeah.

(01:05:58):
So they moved the attic out. Moved in the movies
they used to do if I remember, right, is like
just sort of.

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
Push stuff like push it out a little bit and
then they build the city, you know what I mean,
because if you're not going to use it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:11):
Yeah, so they're not. They didn't actually take down the
attic set. They just push it back right out so
they don't have to redress the whole thing. So yeah,
they fit the whole movie theater inside the attic.

Speaker 2 (01:06:22):
Imagine that, because the attic is so gigantic.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
Yeah, it's it's the size of a small home.

Speaker 2 (01:06:28):
It's the size of a small movie theater. Apparently, Yeah,
I love Did you have any everywhere he looks?

Speaker 1 (01:06:36):
I do not. I mean I have one, but it's dumb,
and I think I've said it before, and I've looked
all throughout the crowd the movie theater. Did nobody recognized I? Oh, yeah,
you gotta no, no, no, it is just the scar.
You can really see the scar on my on my
cheek in this episode, which I might have mentioned before,
is from me. I thought when I was a baby
flapping my hands and I had those really sharp nails,

(01:06:58):
the little baby daggers light with a baby dagger. Oh wow,
that's what my mom told me anyways, So yeah, I
could really see it prominently in my close sets. But yeah, no,
that wasn't that's not very interesting everywhere you look.

Speaker 2 (01:07:10):
So when nine was in everywhere you listen, what did
you hear? Because after I say the line, I can
honestly say no, I we haven't. There's the laughter, and
then you hear Dave's laugh continuing on because he's probably
over at video village watching or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:07:31):
But I do you hear Dave's laugh? Oh that's so cool?
Yeah it was.

Speaker 2 (01:07:35):
I was like, oh, I know that laughed. I laid
it like three times and I was like, that's Dave.

Speaker 1 (01:07:40):
You're yeah, that's Dave, that's Dave. Oh that's so cool. Yeah,
it was cute. That's so yeah. That was That was
not their voices. And when you listen, we've added a
new leg look.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
Sometimes sometimes you'll hear Laurie. Laurie is very because she's
got a very distinct laugh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:56):
I'm waiting for John. John's kind of a like John
and Scott a lot of like he's yeah, omph to
his laugh to yours too. I don't know if you
got had that bellowing laugh when you were a kid,
or did that come later when you're an adult. I
don't remember I did.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
I mean I always kind of laughed like like a
mouth good mouth, open laugh.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
But I don't think your cackle came later. The the
what your cackle, your your laugh like megaphone laugh. I
think that that came when you I think I just learned.

Speaker 2 (01:08:27):
I think Honestly, what it was is I just learned like, oh,
don't hold back the sound of your laughter, like you
know what I mean. Like I had like the silent laugh,
and I was like, just be loud about it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
Just be loud, own it, own your laugh. Now it
is my calling guard. Oh I love it. Yeah, you
and Laurie are rivals for laughs the loudest. It's true.
It's true. When we're all together, it's like Laura and
I just yeah, you.

Speaker 2 (01:08:49):
Said, uh, well that love it. That was our episode.
That was a really fun one.

Speaker 1 (01:08:53):
Oh so fun. Love it. I love it where I
can't believe we're so far into season five already. This
is going so fast.

Speaker 2 (01:09:02):

play It Again.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
Jesse, lady fan, I don't remember that one. I don't either,
but I guess we will. Well, we'll find out. I
assume it has something to do with his musical career
going nowhere and he's trying to find another contract or
another recording.

Speaker 2 (01:09:18):
We're nools.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
