"Take My Sister, Please" Recap Season 5, Episode 3

What happens when no one wants to share a room with Stephanie? She obviously chooses to live in the bathroom! Though DJ's presentation was top notch, we can't help but feel bad for Steph (though Jodie would actually like to sleep in that bathtub -- it looks comfy)! 

Find out what it was like BTS for the girls to get total room makeovers during Season 5, too! It's all right here on How Rude, Tanneritos!

at the ocean.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I mean, there's verybody who are you going to take
pictures with? You have to have Yeah, yeah, you know
what I mean. Like it's a it's a thing. It's
I get it. I get it, I get it. But
are you bringing in a back hoe for her room?
While she's gone. I was thinking about it, actually, I
was so sick.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Clear, Yeah, I was thinking of like, maybe now's the
time to just yeah, bringing in the back home.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
You don't want to touch, No, you who knows what
could be lurking in there? Get true? Yeah you're so
you don't want to touch what's disease. Yeah, then the
next pandemic happens from that COVID mixed with whatever lives
in teenager's rooms, and that's what's going to take us
all out. Oh my god, that would be terrible. Oh god.

(03:52):
Oh they do have beetry dishes growing in there though.
My kid brought out something last night we miscoum made
like ziziki and little like oh sort of Mediterranean like
chicken sharm of meatball things. But she ate it like
in the middle of the night and then left the
plate of zadziki in the sink that had but did

(04:13):
it wipe it off or anything. So like you come
downstairs and you're just like, what's that smell?

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Oh, and it's like yeah, yeah, yeah. Now I've tried
to none of my family members, even the adult ones
to they don't none of them do that, like rinse
the damn dish or.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Off with a paved just yes anyway, But this is
this is our ran today. This is this is the
hill we're gonna die on today. Not anything else going
on in the World's rinse your dish damn it well,
and I'm very particular about my dishwasher organization. Are you
like this? And every yeah, everybody, well, I'll do it wrong.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
They all do it wrong, and I but I'm like,
I don't want them to not do it because then
they seezy.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
What's that book that that let let them be or whatever.
Just just let them do it wrong, just let it bother.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
It doesn't bother them. I'm bothered when they put like
the bowls are in the wrong section and.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Right, but they're gonna keep doing me. So so you
you either have to learn how to be unbothered by it,
because they're probably not going to change, is what I'm saying.
So you're gonna have to You're gonna have to be
in a place of acceptance over the improper loading of
the dishwasher. Abe, And I know that's.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Their lives would be so much better if they learned that,
I know what properly, you're right, and.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
They're gonna go off on their own and their entire
life is going to be ruined because they load the
dishwasher and proper. They're not going to be asked about
it in a job interview, and probably there's a really
successful position because they don't load the dishwasher. I'm glad
you understand the severity you do, but it's you're gonna
have to let it be up to them. Right now.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
You're in a weekened state. You can't deal with anything,
so just yeah, I really can't. I'm just I'm just
letting the dishes pile up. Michael can deal with it.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Because, oh, it's somebody else's problem.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, this week, I'm I'm this is These are gonna
be the the two or three hours that I'm upright,
and then I'm going to be horizontal for the rest
of the day.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
I'm so sorry that you couldn't do this podcast lying down,
although I'm sure you could, but yeah you could. I
should have done my whole setup from my bed. You
could have bring a cock into your office, I don't know,
laid out on your desk, get a pillow, you know,
just curl up. You can't you imagine just.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Right there, I would legit fall asleep. I would fall asleep.
Nobody wants that. Then it would just be the one,
one woman show. Jodie Sweeten responding to herself and talking.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Lord knows, there's enough of that in my mind, my life. Yeah,
I respond to myself enough. You know what should we should?
We jump in and we'll just jump in. I mean,
I'm sure people have Bulder dishwasher talk, but you have
a limited amount of upright time, Yes, so we better

(07:02):
get straight into it. We shorten this pre showed chatter
and get right yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, No, no one
needs chatter when we're sick.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Welcome back to how Rude Tannerito's I am a sick
Andrea Barber.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
And I'm Jody Sweeten, who's never been more glad to
do this podcast at a distance.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
This is where work from home and remote recording works
out really well.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, yep.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Today we're discussing season five, episode three, Take My Sister Please.
It originally aired October first, nineteen ninety one, and it
goes a little something like this. DJ lobbies for her
own bedroom, but Michelle is reluctant to share a room
with Stephanie, who is depressed because nobody wants her as

(07:50):
a roommate.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Wow, the rejection is strong in this episode. Waiting for them.
I'm like, when is it? When do I move into
the bathroom? This is it? This is it? Finally? Oh man,
did I feel bad for you? This is like middle
child syndrome for real. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
It was directed by Joels Wick. It was written by
Mark Warren and Dennis Frinstler. And we have some guest stars.
We have Mercedes Jane as pregnant woman. Which one there's
a room full of them. Yeah, did one of them
have a line?

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
I don't know which one she was, but she has
two other credits to her name. She did Give Give
Till It Hurts. I don't know what that is, and
Elvis in Hollywood, So maybe that's my favorite.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Did she play pregnant women in those two Pregnant Woman?

Speaker 1 (08:41):
She doesn't. She doesn't get names in any of these credits.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
She just gets to a descriptor.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
And then we have the adorable David Lasher as Rick.
Oh do I love David Lasher.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
I forgot he was in this episode. I remember he
was on the show, but I was like, wait, where
did when do we see? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Yeah, I knew he had done an episode, but I
couldn't remember. I thought he was in it more. I
thought he was an actual like boyfriend boyfriend.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
I think he is in it more at some.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Point it later, I don't know. I feel like, yeah,
I don't know. I didn't look up if he's in it.
Later I didn't either.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
I'm sure Maddie will get a but he's for Maddy.
Pretty soon he'll be like, yes, he's in episodes that
or we're totally wrong. But now I felt like he
was in a few.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
He should if he wanted, he should have been because
he's such a wonder quintessential nineties boyfriend right in his.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Little dimples and everything. Oh he's just such a lovely human.
I love working with David. So they really like the
name rick because we had didn't we give Ricky the
paper Boy. Oh yeah, Oh they're now we got rick
the Rickster, the Ray Richard Ricky, Ricky Tavvy.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Oh my god, you are such on such a role.
But in case you don't know, he played Ted in
Hey Dude.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
I love that show. It was so good.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
He does a rewatch podcast with Christine Taylor called Hey
Dude the Nineties called He was also in Sabrina the
Teenage Witch.

Speaker 4 (10:04):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
He played Josh in the series Clueless, and he played
Vinnie on Blossom for forty eight episodes.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Like yeah, such a natty China. This is his only
full house episode is Oh man, they should have brought
such a brief moment, right, they should have brought him back.
Maybe he was too busy on Blossom. Maybe we did
bring him back. But he's playing someone else. Oh, maybe, yeah,
that's true. Maybe he's he's playing Debbie Gregory. He's playing
uh uh, Dick. It's a rick, you know, Nick. Something'll

(10:42):
never know. Jason still never know. He just said he's
playing pregnant woman number two. Oh, I got Debbie Gregory's
and there's a pregnant lady number three. Amazing? All right.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
And last, but certainly not least, we have Nancy Vallen
as Lisa Green, the Lama's Instructor. She played Samantha on
bay Watch. She played Melissa on Ryan's Hope, and she
did a bunch of guest appearances on Boy Meets World Murder.
She wrote the Young Riders and Friends.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
You know I love that show, Young Riders. That's where
she looked. Yes, did you recognize her from your family.
But I was like, she looks familiar. I've seen her
and other stuff. Yeah, she's so familiar. Yeah, and she was, yeah,
she's worked a bunch back then, but yeah, I definitely,
I definitely recognized her face, probably from from the Young
Riders because I was absolutely obsessed with Josh Brolin preteen.

(11:44):
That'll be our next rewatch, Potch, that's our next rewatching.
I mean, between the Goodies and Young Riders. I was like, oh,
this is yes, everything super cute. Yeah, okay, anyway, so we.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Start with the teaser in Michelle's room. Michelle is standing
up staring at the open doorway as she shouts, hurry up.
Jesse rushes in carrying a glass of water. I'm coming Michelle.
Michelle locks eyes with him and lets out a huge hiccup.
That was a big one, she admits, the worst.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
I hate hiccups. I get up the other day and
I couldn't stop and it hurts so bad. It's it's
it's that's the worst. Like it. As it goes on,
it just gets tighter and tight.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
You're like, I'm gonna yes, it's a physical you can't
physically stop your body from from moving.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's crazy. Uh so, Jesse drops to his knees.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
All right, stay cool now, the Cassopolist cure for hiccups
never ever fails. He instructs Michelle to flap her arms
like a chicken and move her eyes like groutcho. Michelle
commits to this bit. She flaps her little arms and
crosses her eyes to the best of her ability.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
She did very well with this, especially for someone she's
probably never heard of. Right, how did they do this
Grout show or Chico? You know? I'm like, she has
no idea who he's talking about, Like, I don't know
what you're talking about, you know what. I take that back,
because she lives with Joey, so I bet he's made
her watch some of the Marx Brothers duck suits for sure.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Joey's been training hers, yeah, to do these expressions. Yeah. Uh. Finally,
Jesse admits, actually, this has nothing to do with the cure.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
I was just trying to.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
See if you were dope enough to do it. And
Michelle rolls her eyes at this.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Insult, and so did.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I Like the don't call your five year old niece
a dope or four and three quarters niece a dope
like that was whatever?

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Hey, she did flap her arms like a chicken.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
He hands her the cup and says the real cure
is to take a sip of water. Michelle chugs the
glass and then Jesse tells her to repeat the magic
words have mercy, and Michelle repeats in a deep voice,
have mercy, and Jesse nods and approval.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
See on cue. Michelle has another hiccup. Dang it.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Jesse decides, all right, we'll go to the cure recommended
by the New England Journal of Medicine. Jesse sneaks up
to an unsuspecting Michelle and tries to scare the hiccups
out of her with a loud scream. She gives him
a look of betrayal. That wasn't very nice, I'm telling Daddy,
and she marches toward the hallway. Jesse begs her not

(14:13):
to get him in trouble. He tries to prove his
method was effective, asking it worked, didn't it. Michelle stares
down at him and lets out another huge hiccup without
missing a beat. She yells dad and disappears out the door,
and Jesse just stays kneeling on the floor, looking defeated.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
Are by hiccups. It was an unsatisfying ending to a teaser. Yeah,
the hiccups still remained. They still remain of a bummer.
It is a bummer. What do you do when you
get hiccups? What's your what's your your cure? Quote unquote.
I just hold my breath and then drink. I try
to hold my breath and drink. Usually breathe while you're drinking,
because that's pretty difficult. I think you lose that ability.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Well, you hold your nose, don't You hold your nose
and drink and then hold your I don't know.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
The way I do it is I hold my breath
and try and swallow three times because it's supposed to
help relax the diaphragm muscle, which is what is contracting.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh you know.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
I try to hold my breath like the same breath
and drink. But then it's the same thing. It's sort
of holding breath and swallowing like it's just trying to
I think, yeah, reset that, we're reset the whatever that's called. Yeah,
I'm sure there's someone out there listening, some fan rito
that is knowledgeable in this area. But uh, the scaring
has never worked though. The scary No, but it's fun. No,

(15:32):
you know what I mean, You're like, when else do
I get an excuse that I'm trying to help somebody
by scaring the crap out of them? You just like
to scare people. Yeah, I mean it's a little bit.
I mean, you know, jump out from around the corner
and surprise one of your kids, and you're like, see,
I'm helping.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
They're just like, shut out, mom. Next, we are in
DJ and Stuff's room. DJ and Kimmy are at the
table with their textbooks open, deep into study.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Mode with their class. Rick okay, chapter six, What do
we know about Jefferson? Dj asks.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Kimmy responds, he owns a cleaning store and he's married
to Weeezy.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
I mean, she's not wrong. She's not wrong now, just
the wrong Jefferson. Jefferson. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
DJ shoots a look at Rick. Don't mind, Kimmy, she
has a seat reserved in summer school. Before Rick can respond,
Kimmy pivots the conversation to ask if he's free this weekend. Then,
with a sly look toward DJ, she adds, I know
DJ's free this weekend, and DJ glares at her. Very
subtle Kimmy, may we all have a wingman like Kimmy Gibbler, right,

(16:41):
she doesn't you know, she's not subtle, but she's now.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
But she's get it care. She's gonna get it done.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
She's gonna get it done. Rick says, I don't have
any plans. He tells DJ they're opening a new roller
coaster on Saturday night at Thrill Mountain. The Squirminator.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
That sounds weird. This just sounds weird, right, I wonder
what's involved with because it does makes you squirm. It's
supposed to be like I think a take on the Terminator. Oh,
and it's like making you squirm means you're like nervous
and uncomfortable. I don't know, it just it sounds. When
I hear the scuorminator, I picture I don't know, I

(17:18):
picture like a giant earthworm taking over San Francisco or something.
It just that that's yeah, it's weird. I don't know
why that's what comes to me.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
But that's that says a lot about your psyche, that
that's what that's what came to mind. Let's because don't
give me a rorschac test. Okay, you don't want to
know that would be Yeah, that's a whole other podcast. Right,
sominators back to the discriminator. DJ does not miss a beat.
She says, well, that's this weekend when we're both free,

(17:48):
and now it's Kimmy's.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
Turn to roll her eyes. Yeah that's not obvious.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Rick nervously says, I I was thinking that maybe you
and I could And then on cue, Stephanie bursts into
the room with this adorable sequined this little short short.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah, oh my goodness, obviously summer. Well yeah, it's summer
in San Francisco, or spring at least, because everyone's kind
of dressed for warmer weather, which never happens in San Francisco,
so that's funny. But but yeah, I like this little
lot fit. Oh you looked adorable. I was like it
was made out of a scarf. Yeah, yeah, no, it was.
It was super cute.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
This looked like very almost like a Roberta, a Roberta
type style.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Yeah, this is a very I think I got to
keep this too, because I feel like I remember wearing
this in my life. Yeah, I think I remember that too.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
So Stephanie struts over to the table, focusing on Rick.
You must be Rick, the Rick Meister, Rick Rama, the
Rick shaw Man, Ricky ticky tavvy.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
You're doing like a tight ten right here. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm like, hold on, I got more.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
You're so proud yourself too, so Rick laughs, but DJ
is not amused. She tells him my annoying little sister
just leaving. But Stephanie ignores DJ and flops onto an
open chair instead. She was just making herself comfortable, she clarifies,
while kicking her feet up onto the table. Give me in,

(19:12):
DJ exchange a look. They get up, grab Stephanie's chair
and carry her out of the room. Wait a minute,
Steph shouts, but they don't hesitate as they parked Stephanie
in the hallway and slam the door in her face.
Steph calls out, how rude. Back inside. DJ leans across
the table from Rick. Now where were we?

Speaker 2 (19:33):
But Stephanie, oh no, she's not done.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
Jo such an annoying little Sister's such an annoying little sister.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Here, and now that I have two of them are like,
oh this, yep, you got you actually do this stuff
to each other.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, just as you're just like you determined determined to
be Yeah, and then then be like, what did it do?

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Steph barges right back in with a smile on her face.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
You nutty teenagers are always goofing around, as if you
didn't want me in my own room. She lets out
a very loud and obnoxious laugh, and DJ grabs her
by the shoulders. Bye bye, she says as she steers
her towards the bed. Turning back to Rick, DJ tries
to pick up where they left off, Thrill Mountain. And
that's when Stephanie's ears perk up.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
Thrill Mountain. I love Thrill Mountain. Indeed, you remember the
time you threw up on the wild Weasel? Such a
sister moment. God, remember that really horribly embarrassing thing. Yeah,
it was great. We should talk about it right now
in front of this.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
Is Steph doing this on purpose or she's being like innocent, like,
oh remember that time?

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Or is she really trying to embarrass I think Steph,
I don't think she like I think she's meeting to
just sort of be kind of annoying. But I don't
think she realizes like the total embarrassment of the of
the puke story, right, you know what I mean? I

(21:02):
think she's genuinely like, yeah, I remember when you puke
that time. You know, she's like, no, no, no, you
remember the thing and the day. But she's being annoying
with the like ricky ticky tavvy and coming back in
the room and all the same. But I don't yeah,
I don't know that she is like trying to quite
twist the knife that hard. But she's definitely enjoying being
an annoying sister for sure.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
I think she's just trying to pull focus. She's not
really trying to mortify yea, yeah, she's bored. Listen to me, right, yeah, exactly.
This is what happens when you don't give Stephani a
friend until like season seven, never else. Yes, So DJ
shoots her sister a death stare no, and Steph doubles down.

(21:40):
How could you forget? You were pigging out on corn
dogs and they had to stop the ride for thirty minutes?

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Does it down? Oh? Yeah, mortified? That's always the worst
you ever been in a line when that happens. Oh
and then you're like, you know, yeah, I don't want
to go on this anymore. Yeah, I can skip this
ride time. It's just fine.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
So Rick winces at the graphic story and tells DJ,
it sounds like you're not ready for this Scorminator.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
I gotta go.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
I'll see you guys in school tomorrow, And as he
walks away, Stephanie shouts by rick Monster, rick TONI, Rickery, Dickery,
doc Like, how many versions of this do.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
You don't get me started? I'll keep going. Yeah, it's endless. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
So the door closes and DJ turns to Stephanie with
fury in her eyes. You ruined everything. He was just
about to ask me out, and Steph shrugs. Maybe he'll
ask you out tomorrow. DJ throws up her arms and defeat.
By tomorrow, he'll find someone who can hold her corn dogs.
They'll fall in love on the scorminator and all end

(22:50):
up all desperate and alone.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
Steph Pat's are on the back. You'll never be alone.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
You'll always have me. What a consolation price. DJ shakes
her head. I don't want you. You're always in my way.
I'm getting my own room. You little sister are history,
and she storms out. Steph calls after her, come on
the Dejonizer, Djon Mustard, come on, like this.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Dejon Mustard was my favorite. Was like, that's a really
good one. D Jon Mustard, very very creative.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
So next in the kitchen, Jesse walks in with his
arms full of grocery bags as Becky sets a picture
of lemonade onto the table. He leans in for a
kiss and gives her belly a quick rub to check
in on the twin sters. Becky eyes the grocery bags
and asks would you get me at the store, and
Jesse confidently replies, exactly what you wanted, and he pulls

(23:53):
out a bag of salt and vinegar chips.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
That's my favorite pregnantory art. Salt vinegar pretty good. But
then you get the get the corner of the mouth
thing where it starts getting a little stingy when you
eat too much. I hate that. I'm like, oh wow,
the burn. Yeah, no, it's it's that that after effect
lasts for a long time.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
So Becky gives him a half hearted smile.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Oh, honey, that's what I asked for, because I really
have a craving for garlic and cheddar chips.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
I've never heard of garlic and jedd chips. I haven't either.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
I've heard of cheddar chips and maybe garlic chips, but
not garlic and cheddar chips. Jesse gives her annoying look. Hmmm, well,
I had a feeling you might change your mind, especially
after the second time you paged me at the market.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh a pager. Yeah, pagers so inconvenient because if somebody
pages you, now you gotta go to a payphone and
call them back. It's not like they call you twice
at the market and I'm like, okay, whatever, No, this
was at you page somebody twice at the market. It's
that's annoying.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
That's annoying. That's at least a twenty minute detour to
find a pay for make sure you got change, get
changed from the cashier.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, this is the thing.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
So he proceeds to dump all of the grocery bags
onto the table to reveal an array of snacks. I
got every chip known to man. It's the pregnancy variety pack,
he proudly states. Becky starts sorting through the mountain of
chip bags. You didn't happen to get any with ridges,
did you? And Jesse's face falls. What's the deal with ridges?

(25:23):
It's like a potato chip that needs to be ironed.
Are better?

Speaker 2 (25:27):
I do like ridges bettertato chip?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Yeah? Yea yeah, it grab onto the bean dip or whatever.
It did a little bit better yeah, Becky explains.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Oh yeah, those ridges. Glad we worked that out. Becky says,
those ridges help you scoop a lot more bean dips.
She's got a point.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Jesse's eyes widen and he spins toward the door. Oh no,
I forgot the bean dip. Becky rushes after him and
gently turns him back around. Oh it doesn't matter. She
nudges towards the living room and says, we have to
set up for our childbirth class right now. You can
shop for being dip when the class is over. Once
they're gone, Michelle comes running down the stairs. Her eyes

(26:11):
go wide at the junk food scattered across the table,
A million billion chips and nobody in the kitchen. She
races over to the table and grabs one of the
family sized bags, but she struggles to open it and
crumbles on nuts childproof, but she continues tugging at different bags,
desperate to crack one of them. Next, in the living room,

(26:33):
Becky is directing Jesse as he rearranges furniture in preparation
for their childbirth class.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
I was like a home. Yeah, well it's the Tannerhouse.
Everything happens at their house.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Thing happens there. Everything revolves around them.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
It's true, all of San Francisco really revolves around the Tannerhouse. Yeah, no,
do we did? In fuller, we did that. We have
the Lama's Class in the living room too, like this
is where.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Of course, Well yeah, this is always, yeah, always in
the living room, because why go to a hospital?

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah, why go to a place? Yeah, just invite other
strangers over to your house to have a birthing class.
It was we were on a budget in season five.
We couldn't afford a swing set. Did you did you
when you were ragnant with your kids? Did you take
one of the childbirth class?

Speaker 1 (27:17):
I did? I did the Lama's class, uh, the first
my first pregnancy with Tate, And then I didn't really
get a whole lot out of it.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
I don't know, did you. I mean I got I've
got some out of it, but then neither it didn't
apply to me, So I was like, well, never mind.
But I bet if I would have done it at home,
I would have learned more.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah, if you had done in the Tanner House, you
would have really absorbed a lot more of that info.
So Joey and Danny walk down and make a bee
line for the front door. See, yeah, I have a
good time, they call out. Becky intercepts and encourages them
to stay for the class. She tells them it's very interesting.
The guy's pause exchange a glance, and Danny turns to

(27:52):
her apologetically, we'd love to, but we're stuck with these
two tickets to the Warriors game. Joey heads to the
front door without a hint of regret. Let's roll, buddy.
They swing open the front door and find themselves face
to face with a pretty lady. Hi, she says and
steps inside.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Joey and Danny reply in perfect unison, eyes tracking her
as she walked past. They've never seen a girl before.
I know, it's like, guys, calm the hormones a little bit.
At least it's you know, it's not Jesse at least.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
Yeah, I've been very awkward.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Becky gestures toward the woman and introduces her to the guys.
This is Lisa Green, our instructor. Danny hops away from
the door and extends his hand. Hi, Lisa, I'm Danny Tanner,
your eager student. He quickly hands his tickets over to
Joey and tells him to enjoy the game, but Joey
isn't going anywhere. He slaps the tickets into Danny's chest

(28:52):
and introduces himself to Lisa Joey Gladstone, ex Warriors fan,
and she smiles. Nice meeting you both. But in order
to join our class, one of you has to be pregnant. Yeah,
otherwise it's creepy bro right, Joey pat's stomach. Well, I
have been retaining an awful lot of water lately. It's
the second episode in a row that Joey has pretended

(29:14):
to be pregnant. Danny throws an arm around Joey's shoulder.
I'm actually only taking the class in case Jesse passes
out in the delivery room, and Joey adds, I'll be
there in case Danny passes out. Lisa laughs and tells
them they're welcome to stay and observe. Danny admits I
have a lot of questions about childbirth. For instance, are

(29:36):
you and your husband planning on any childcare?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
No? Planning on any children? Oh? Any children? And even
by childcare would be either weird either way, But yeah,
are you and your housing on any children?

Speaker 1 (29:48):
That's that's so inappropriate on so many legs.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
Before you're in San Francisco. She could very likely have
a female partner, true, yes, or maybe she just doesn't
wan have kids, or she doesn't want to have kids
and you're asking too personal of a question, Danny Tanner. No,
they a lot of questions about Choldbern. You've been for
three times more than probably anybody else.

Speaker 3 (30:12):
In the room.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
Yes, exactly.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
And he's hitting on he's hitting on the lama's instructure, like,
come on, guys, he's a little out of character for Danny.
It is out of character for Danny, Like I know,
he hasn't had much luck in love, like with dating
all of the kids teachers or trying to do the
true teachers teacher, the lama's instructor. So the thing he's
hot for teacher, he's hot for teachers, isn't he?

Speaker 2 (30:36):
So what it is?

Speaker 1 (30:40):
So Lisa clarifies, actually I'm single, and Joey, for some
reason responds in his daffy duck voice.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Wow, a lot of coincidence. So am I instant turn
on for Lisa? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Because she exclaims daffy duck and Danny rolls his eyes. No,
he just spits when he talks. Just he walks up
to the desperate bachelor's and sarcastically tells Lisa it's gonna
be a tough choice between these two. Then DJ comes
racing down the stairs holding something under her arm. She shouts, Dad, Joey, uncle, Jesse,

(31:15):
May I please see you guys in the kitchen. Danny
waves her off. Actually, I'm kind of busy, honey. Is
it really important?

Speaker 2 (31:22):
This also felt like not a Danny moment. No the kids? Yeah, yeah, no,
this is not well.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Jesse wasn't available to hit on this woman because he's
got a wife since pregnant.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
So I guess now it falls to Danny. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
So DJ insists, Dad, this is my biggest crisis this week,
and so he empathetically responds, Okay, we're coming.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
That's true. As a teen, I do forget the age
that the DJ is. At that point, you're like, what what?

Speaker 1 (31:51):
Now?

Speaker 2 (31:51):
What?

Speaker 1 (31:52):
What?

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Everything? You got to pick and choose the house? What
was it really important? Yeah? It's in the kitchen.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Michelle is so desperate to open the chip bag. She's
recruited Commet to try and help. This is not sugar
this time. She's moved on to the salts. That's true,
the salt yes, she's expanding her her binging salts binges. Yes,
she commands pull it open, comet, and they played tug

(32:23):
of war with the bag.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
But when they get nowhere, Michelle.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Size these are doggie proof too, and then Danny, Joey, Jesse,
and DJ walk into the kitchen. Danny swoops in and
takes the chip bag from Michelle's hands. He asks, honey,
did you take these potato chips without asking? Michelle turns
to the dog and frowns. I told you we'd get
in trouble.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
I when do you leave a toddler alone? This is
what happens. This is what happens kindergarten. But yeah, still,
did you take the chips without it? Who was I
going to ask? Dad? No one was here.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
There were forty two chips on the kitchen. Of course
she's gonna grab one and try and open it. Uh. Meanwhile,
DJ has wasted no time in setting up the poster
boards that she has created for today's presentation. She asks
for everyone's attention and reveals the first slide that reads,
my own room. Together, we can make it happen. She

(33:18):
begins her pitch, but is instantly interrupted by Stephanie coming
down the stairs shouting don't listen to her. DJ grins,
thank you, Stephanie, you've just illustrated my first point interruptions.
DJ explains that she can't talk on the phone, or
do her homework or hang out with her friends without
Stephanie getting in the way. Stephanie jumps in, that's ridiculous,

(33:41):
I do not, Danny cuts her off. Let's hear what
DJ has to say, and then you'll get your chance
to interrupt. Stephanie nods, that's all I.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
Ask, seriously.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
DJ flips to her next board that says two different worlds.
She reminds the crowd that she's at high school aka
the Land of Maturity. Well, Stephanie Michell go to elementary
school aka tiny town. Since those two go to the
same school, DJ thinks they should be the ones to
share a room. Stephanie shouts, I object and claims she

(34:15):
has nothing in common with a kindergarten baby like Michelle.
Michelle pouts, who are you calling a baby baby? DJ
holds up a hand, children please, and flips to her
next slide, strange but true facts. She points out that
Stephanie and Michelle are the exact same age. She and

(34:35):
Stephanie were when they started sharing a room. Isn't that amazing?
She asks the guys, and Joey nods. It's like that
thing where Kennedy had a secretary named Lincoln and Lincoln
had a secretary named Kennedy. Jesse retorts, what's amazing as
you're able to dress yourself every morning?

Speaker 2 (34:55):
Jesse and the subtle digs this episode, Like he's kind
of great with these subtle digs. To be fair, it
is really if it's all true that all the weird
like coincidences between Kennedy and Lincoln, there's more than.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
It's fascinating true. So finally DJ moves on to her
closing point. She's paid her dues, she deserves her own room,
and if there's any justice in this world, they will
set her free. I was actually really impressed with this presentation,
Like she brings up really good points and she's in

(35:29):
high school. She kind of needs her own room.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
Now, you know, my kids have done this with things
that they want. Yeah, they have been like, I have
a presentation, I have a power point. I think so
when she wanted a phone around like fifth or grade
or whatever at the end of the grade, Yeah, we
had a full. There is a presentation as to why,
why it was a good idea, why it would keep

(35:51):
her safer, blah blah, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
I love it. That's you know, it's like where was
this energy when you had to do a project for school?

Speaker 2 (35:59):
Like, you know, I was like, oh, so you found
a poster board and did all of this for the phone,
But right, what about that history project?

Speaker 1 (36:07):
You know, when it comes to school projects, it's ten
pm and you're like, I need to go to the
craft store to mark I saund a poster board. So
Danny turns to Stephanie and asks, do you have a rebuttal?
Stephanie confidently responds no, but you should hear my side
of this.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
She clasps her hands together and pleads with Danny, please
don't make me live with a four year old baby,
and Michelle cuts in, I'm not a baby.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
I'm four and three quarters. You're still a little shrimp.
Stephanie fires back. Michelle shouts stop calling me names, you cheesehead,
and Danny steps between them. That's enough, you two. He
announces that the guys need a moment to deliberate, so
the three of them huddle up with their arms around
each other.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Whispering. I can only imagine what they were whispering. And
you know it's something Danna sayings, something horrifically inappropriate because
Bob is losing it and Bob's saying and it's yeah, yeah,
I mean, it's only like laid it back a couple
of times and turned it up to be like can

(37:13):
I hear it? I mean, I'm sure anything stupid they
would have like bleeveed it that, but yeah, it was.
They were definitely, yeah, they were definitely breaking and laughing.
And I'm I'm I mean, I get have we had
a scene where was like, I have to whisper something.
I'm gonna whisper the strangest things ever, always trying to
get each other to break.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
That's that's like almost mandatory for sitcom actors for sure.
So after a few seconds, Danny steps forward, Okay, we've
come to a decision, But before he can say anything,
DJ blurts, Dad, that's so unfair. He reminds her, you
haven't even heard what I have to say yet, and
she nervously chuckles, oh, sorry, just to hab it. Finally,

(37:52):
Danny reveals that the guys actually agree with DJ. Both
Stephanie and DJ echo you do. In surprise, Danny tells
everyone that starting this weekend, Michelle will move in with
Stephanie and DJ will get.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Her own room. DJ is thrilled.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
She gives each guy I kiss on the cheek and
bolts out of the kitchen so she can go tell
Kimmy the amazing news. She pats Stuff's head on the
way out and says, nice knowing you kid. Then Becky
walks in and asks for volunteers to help Lisa set
up for class. Joey points toward the stairs and tells
Danny to look, and Danny does as he's told, which

(38:31):
gives Joey the chance to sneak out and help Lisa alone.
Danny realizes shortly after what's going on, and he goes
into the living room to help. Jesse stays behind with Becky.
She walks over to him and sweetly asks if he
can grab her wool socks because she's chilly. He stammers,
but all of our winter stuff is in the crawl space.

(38:53):
I'd have to crawl up there and get all dirty.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
She can be fascinated to see how large the Tanner's
crawl space is.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Well, yeah, because the attic is now their apartment. So
what's in the crass? Like what is a cross? Is
the crawl space?

Speaker 2 (39:07):
I don't know. Did we see it in that episode
of Fuller? You we're in the attic in that episode
of Fuller when we're up in the Kimmy's room. Was
Kimmy's room was the attic, but we were I thought
Kimmy's room was the base. No, I was in the basement.
You were in the basement. I was in the attics, right,
I don't know was there, but it was. It's frame.

(39:29):
It's not an a frame house. It's a it's a rectangle. No,
but it's like this and flat across the in the attic. Yeah,
I thought that room we were in had like a
little maybe it has like a dormer, which isn't on
the dorm which is dormers like those little sort of
like it sticks out of like the roof of a house,
and it's kind of like a little thing that juts

(39:50):
out and then it typically has like a pitched roof
like that. Yeah, yeah, it has one of those, but
I don't know where it is on the actual house.
I keep referencing the Lego house, right, get the leg
the house you need to know. But yeah, I don't
like that that window doesn't appear anywhere on the house.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
Yeah, this is this house continues to baffle us and
the fans across the world. So Becky gives him a
bright smile, thank you, sweetheart. Jesse gives her a fake
smile and waves, no problem, darling. He walks out, muttering,
two more months, just two more months. Wow, we're seven

(40:28):
months into this pregnancy already.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Well yeah, I mean we when we would break over
in summertime, we kind of would assume that a more
extensive amount of time had passed. So this is only
episode what two or three?

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Two?

Speaker 2 (40:46):
This is episode three of season five, So I think
we've come back, and it's.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
It's been several months. Jesse went on tour with the
Rippers and the Mullets.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Yeah, Jesse went on tour with the Rippers and the
Bullets and then gave up everything and and then was
trying to perform. Then he became vulture. Oh yeah, vulture.
I don't know what happened with Jessie and.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
The Rippers, but are Jesse and the vultures the vultures? Yeah? Okay,
so we are seven months along that makes a lot
of sense. Okay, So Stephanie walks over to Michelle and
she sighs, I guess it's just you and me. Michelle
angrily states I don't want to live with you, and
Steph's taken aback. Why not you look up to me?

(41:30):
And Michelle clarifies that's because I'm short. Steph argues, well,
this should be the happiest day of your life, but
Michelle's attitude says otherwise. She tells Steph to read her
lips and blows a raspberry at her before walking out
of the kitchen. Stephanie's face is full of sadness as
she realizes nobody wants to live with me.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
No, Stephanie, Michelle, Michelle, Chelle is a wanner, he Jada's
a water No yeah, just child for you.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
Me and my Waldough glasses just yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
So up in the girls room, Stephanie kneels at the
foot of her bed and pets comment. She tells, comment,
you don't know what it's like to have everyone against you.
She walks over to her closet with determination, DJ and
Michelle don't want to live with me, so I'll just
find a place of my own. She pulls out a
few dresses and places them in a suitcase. Comment lets

(42:31):
out a few barks. In response, she says, oh, thanks
for the offer, but it might be a little crowded
in your doghouse. She sits next to him on the
bed and wraps him in a big hug.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
So sad like, really sadly friend, which, to be fair,
as I've gotten older, I think that's probably the best
friend of the house.

Speaker 4 (42:52):
All you need, that's all, that's all you need. I
had a Golden Retriever as a gain. Yeah, that's it,
that's all I needed, Especially Golden's. They are way more
loyal than any family member that you'll live with, for sure.
So next in the living room, the living room's been
transformed into a childbirth class, filled with pregnant women and
their partners.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
One of whom is named. One of the pregnant women
is named. We don't even know which one, but one
of them.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
One of them gets a credit, one of them got
paid more than the others.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
That's all you need to know.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
Danny and Joey hover over Becky and Jesse as Lisa calmly.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Leads the class.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, cleansing breath. Danny and
Joey let out a big exhale as she walks past,
and they.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
Did their stupid little bit. This is a bit they
did all the time where they just make a face
and be like oh yeah, you're just like, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
It was they do like to this day, except you know, Bob, Bob,
not anymore with Bob, but like even Dave to this day,
still we'll go they still.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
Yeah, yeah, still do it. I'm just and this, I'm
surprised that that Joel didn't. I bet somebody did. Was
like stop and they just were like no, and then
he just did it anyway. And finally they were just
like whatever, just get through the scene.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
They can't stop themselves from doing that little bit. I mean,
I understand, I get that it's hard to get it,
but guys, guys, but.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Also we notice it. I bet you nobody else notices it.
I wonder, yeah, did you notice this fan Ritos that
they were doing this? There was a yeah. It wasn't
like a cleansing breath. It was like some weird sort
of little moment. Did you. Yeah, It's like a if
anybody else not we yeah, or if we notice it
because we just are aware of it.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Yeah, I'm curious too.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
So Lisa announces to the class, Okay, let's all take
out our focus objects. She reminds everyone that this will
be what the mothers concentrate on during labor. So, of course,
Jesse pulls out an Elvis stall and proudly hands it
to Becky and says, here you go, babe, focus on
the king. Becky glares at him, Jess, when you give birth,

(45:02):
you focus on the king. Jesse sets the doll down
and reveals option number two. A turkey leg should have
been cold fried chicken.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
That's I literally was about to Sam's present. Wasn't cold
fred chicken? Right? Right? It was a little too big.
Maybe they needed a bigger leg or something. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:21):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (45:22):
He swings the drumstick in front of Becky's face and
asks better, and Becky admits much. Lisa tells everyone about
their final exercise, deep breathing with the focus objects. Danny
takes this opportunity to coach Joey on his breathing. While
Joey's distracted, Danny hurries across the room to Lisa. Hi, there,

(45:43):
he says, with a grin.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
Lisa replies Danny braggs, you know, if I seem a
little advanced, it's because I've already been through four births,
my three daughters and of.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
Course my own. Lisa laughs, So Danny continues his spiel.

Speaker 1 (45:59):
Seeing my three little girls being born was the most
beautiful experience of my life. Joey suddenly appears behind Danny. Yeah,
tell me about it. When Fred and Wilma had pebbles,
I cried for a week. He breaks into his Fred
Flintstone voice, Yaba Dabba doo, and he sobs into his hands.
Lisa lights up. I love those voices you do, and

(46:22):
Danny jumps in. You know, I do a few cartoon
voices myself.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
Who knew that cartoon voices were the the the game changer.
That's her thing. Yeah, she's you know, there is a
large portion of women into San Francisco that Joey runs
into who are really into cartoon voices.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
I'm surprised, like, I don't know if he's like, there's
no dating apps here at this time.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
Well, that's the thing, there's no dating apps, So it
was you were a little more like I guess people
are weird, you know what I mean? You didn't you
weren't like I'm gonna swipe.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Yeah, yeah, no, that's crazy. So Danny jumps in, you know,
I do a few cartoon voices myself, and in a
high pitched voice, Danny says, hey, stop chasing me, you
mean cat, and Lisa fakes a smile.

Speaker 2 (47:15):
That was really good. Who was that Tom?

Speaker 1 (47:19):
Danny boasts, you know, the little mouse from Tom and Jerry. Danny, So,
Joey rolls his eyes. Tom was the cat, Jerry was
the mouse, and neither one of them ever talked.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
Tom and Jerry as a kid. Oh so good. That was.
I remember sitting at my little Crayola kids Crayola table
that looked like little crayons and watching Tom and Jerry
and eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Core memories
from childhood.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
Yep, Danny scoffs, get a life, and Lisa chimes in,
Joey's right, I mean, Jerry is a mouse that never talks.
But what's fascinating is Mickey, who is also a mouse,
can talk for hours on any subject.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
It's true. I have you ever seen his Ted talks fascinating.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Joey's excitement is palpable. Yeah, like Pluto for instance, this
guy's a dog, where's a callar lives in a doghouse.
But Goofy, who's also a dog, drives a car, plays
golf and lives in a condo. Joey tosses out a
perfect Goofy impression. Yeah yeah, and Lisa laughs, this is
exactly what I was talking about, Like Joey's met his soulmate,

(48:34):
like this girl.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
Like I mean, just literally women who love cartoon voices
keep popping up at his house. I don't know how that,
and like not even solicited. They're just randomly. They just
randomly are like, hey, I'm here to do another thing,
and they're like, oh my god, I love ye Daffy
Duck or whatever.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
How did Joey never get like a long term, wonderful girlfriend,
Like there's plenty out there. It just never and they
keep get and dropped right in his lap? Yes, yes,
So Danny accepts his defeat. He says, you know what,
you two are actually perfect for each other. He apologizes
to Lisa for hitting on her and walks away. Joey

(49:14):
makes his move. Lisa, would you like to go out
for pizza sometime? She smiles, I'd love to go out
with you just as soon as class is over, she
immediately announces classes over, and Becky tells everyone it's snack time.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Who you never quite trust these, you know in home
Lama's teachers. They'll just shorten it off to go do
whatever do. Yeah, you know, she's she's got her sight set.
She's like, yeah, anyway, pregnant ladies, don't bother me. You'll
just do your cleans. I'm not gonna go out the
window when you actually give birth anyway, So it doesn't really.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
Matter which is true. It just all goes out the window.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
Yeah, you're not going to do any of this breathing,
forget the focus object. None of this matters. I'm gonna
go get delta. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
So in the kitchen, Jesse sets a few snack bulls
onto the table, and the pregnant women warm toward them.
Jesse steps back with his arms up and shouts, whoa
watch out, guys, it's feeding time. Becky licks her fingers
and says, honey, you know what, I just got a
craving for a nice slice of seedless watermelon.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
She asks the ladies. Doesn't that sound good? That does
sound good? Right? Actually, summertime watermelon the.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Best, nothing better and Jesse, who's standing with the other
men in the group, tries to be the voice of reason.
Watermelon's out of season. I'd probably have to go to
Mexico to get it, Becky points out, well, you've got
a car.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
He scoffs and.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
Turns to the other men. Do you believe this she'd
send me to Mexico to get her seedless watermelon? The
other guy's grumble in agreement. Becky plants her hands on
her hips. Wait a minute, we shouldn't have to send them.
They should be happy to go, and the women all
murmur in agreement. Jesse want you to do the dishes.

(50:58):
I want you to want to do the dishes. Eight.

Speaker 2 (51:00):
That's where the love lies is. It's wanting. It's in
the race. I don't care if it actually gets done.
I want to at least know that you were like,
what do you need? Oh do this? Oh?

Speaker 1 (51:10):
The intention, The intention goes such a long way. Jesse
cuts in. Now, hold on baby boomers going to the market,
that's fine. But leaving the country to get seedless watermelon
because you have some kind of wacky craving, that's where
I draw the line. And the men all back him
up on this, Jesse jokes, the next thing, you know,
she's gonna want Swiss chocolate. Becky seriously considers this, but

(51:34):
Jesse insists, I'm not going to Switzerland. She tells him,
you're missing the point. It's not about where you go,
it's about you, guys, being there for us. She raises
her voice as the emotion builds. Okay, so maybe we're
a little overly emotional, and maybe we do get a
little demanding, but that's because our hormones are running wild.

(51:57):
I mean, we're happy, we're sad, we're hot, we're cold,
we're huge, she begins to tear up. And all we
want are rigid potato chips and a nice slice of
juicy watermelon with a sight of Swiss chocolate.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Now is that too much to ask? That's all I
want now? And the ladies old rally around her.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Laurie did so good with this Chit like she just
nailed this hole, this whole thing. So meanwhile, guys all
quietly abandoned Jesse, leaving him awkwardly in the middle. Becky
is in tears, and Jesse steps in to comfort her.
Oh no, no, no, sweetheart, It's not too much to ask,
and he pulls her into a hug. I know the
babies depend on you for everything, so you should be

(52:39):
able to depend on me. I'm sorry, and he kisses
the top of her head. Becky wonders, Oh, Jess, what's
wrong with me? I mean, you're so patient and understanding,
and I don't deserve you, and she begins to cry again.
Jesse pats her head and smiles. No, no, you do
deserve me. He turns to the guys. She deserves me, right, guys,

(53:01):
and they all pipe up in agreement. He nods, yeah, yeah,
now you want to be my friend. Becky wipes her
eyes and sniffles. I'm going to be normal again someday, right,
and Jesse sighs, I hope. So they're just hitting all
the pregnancy tropes, the pregnant's honest, I.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
Feel like this is this knelt down of Becky's is
really like the first one we've kind of seen from her.
Oh yeah, she's been.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
He's not pregnant, Yeah no, But Becky gets a pass
for sure because she's she's not only pregnant, she's pregnant
with twinins.

Speaker 2 (53:38):
And so yeah, this this is very normal, and she's
just so she's so funny in this She's just so
great and she looks so cute. Yeah, she does her
little jumper so up.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
In Michelle's room, DJ is kneeling on the floor with
a tape measure, eyeing the dimensions of her future bedroom.
Michelle walks in and sassily asks, may I help you?
I'm just measuring my new room. DJ says, Kimmy was right.
There is enough space for a hot tub. Michelle walks
over to challenge her. Not so fast, sister, this is

(54:11):
still my room. DJ reminds her, you her dad, you're
moving to with Stephanie, and I'm getting this room all
to myself. Michelle reveals, you can just stay in your room.
Stephanie moved out.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
No she didn't. DJ fires back, Yes she did.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
Michelle counters, and the two go back and forth and
back and forth until DJ realizes why am I arguing
with a four year old?

Speaker 2 (54:35):
Wait? Didn't we have this same exchange when DJ moves
into the bathroom or into the garage in like the
second episode or something the first episode. This is since
there a moment where like, no she didn't, ye, yeah
she did? Why am I arguing with a five year old?
And then he goes downstairs or something.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
This is the exact same bit, and there isn't there
also a bit where you're like, yes, she does she
So yeah, this is completely a recurring bit.

Speaker 2 (55:03):
Now, yeah, but it's funny. I like it is funny.
But you know what, at the time, I don't think
it really registered. But now that like we've watched all
of it, I'm like, oh, yeah, it's like the same
little moment, the same I thought.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
I thought Michelle was going to end it with a
little fake pouting cry too, But that was super funny.
So DJ walks away and Michelle shouts after her, I'm
four and three quarters before following her into the hallway.
DJ opens the door to her old room to see
Stephanie's side is completely empty.

Speaker 2 (55:34):
She says, you're these kids in their moving business.

Speaker 1 (55:37):
You move fast too, fastest movers on the planet. DJ says,
you're right, she's gone, and Michelle rolls her eyes. The
DJ questions, well, where did she go? And Michelle waves
her arm follow me. Next in the bathroom, Michelle pushes
open the door and gestures inside. The green car bit

(56:00):
is still giving me the ick. Do not carpet your
bathroom's people.

Speaker 2 (56:03):
It's very big in the eighties, very big in the eighties.
A lot of carpet, No, a lot of carpet, and
green too.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
This is just terrible, terrible, but the entire bathroom is
covered in Stephanie's things. DJ walks in and pulls back
the shower curtain seeing sure enough, Stephanie is curled up
in the bathroom with blankets, some pillows and a book.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
That looks so let me tell you, I love small,
little snugly spaces like that, Like my hammock. I have
this giant love sack thing that's like a big pod
that I can like nestle down in. I love it.
So I am fully on board with Stephanie uh sleeping
in the bathtub because it feels like a little cocoon.

(56:49):
It looked really cozy. It's like a little nest, small
little spaces like that.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
It looks you know, aside from the fact that I
think it might be the only bathroom in the house.

Speaker 2 (57:01):
Other than that, it looked really cozy. Right, Yeah, there's
Danny's got a bathroom, and he's got a bathroom, and
the attic has a bathroom at now has a bath
and the basement has a bathroom and so there's three
bathrooms and the living room has a bathroom. In the
bath bathroom, that's not the washine machine or did that's

(57:22):
in the back of the kitchen. But I think there's
that little doorway remember in the full house. In the
full house, yeah, fuller, it was different. It was different,
and that's where we used to go. But I think
that was supposed to be a bathroom as well. That's
where we had the gum wall.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
Yes, behind that sat you could walk right out into
craft service. Yeah, convenient, but I think that was I
just forgot what I was saying. Anyway, I forgot what
you were saying.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Blankets, books, your nest. You're very cozy. I'm almost ready
getting ready to fledge.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
Yes. Oh. Steph lowers her glasses and asks, did someone
forget how to knock? DJ questions what is she doing
in the bathroom? And Steph replies, I live here, isn't
it cool? She even shows off her renovations. I turned
the sink into a wet bar, the tub into a waterbed,
and I'm thinking of turning the toilet into a love seat.

(58:24):
She's got plans, man, She's just like, I've got this
figured out well, Danny's got the contractor on speed dials, so.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
He's like, let's make it happen.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
He'll do it in a day. Danny walks in and
he takes in this space. Hi, girls, is there something
you want to tell me? Michelle doesn't hesitate. Stephanie lives
in the potty. Now, oh really, Danny raises an eyebrow. Well,
I love what you've done with the place. Thanks, Steph shrugs.
I got the cable guy coming on Tuesday. Danny kneels

(58:56):
beside the tub. Honey, why did you move in here?
Because I got nowhere else to go, she says. DJ
and Michelle don't want to live with me. Danny turns
to face his other daughters. Girls, I don't like what
I'm hearing. Maybe we should just rethink this whole room
change idea.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
And J hate being a parent when you have to
say that, when you're like, oh, you know what you
guys are skin maybe we're not going to do this,
and the panic goes no, no, no, no no no. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (59:25):
It's like, yeah, I can take it back, and adult,
you can always take it back. Oh yeah, So DJ's
in a full panic. No rethinking your original thinking was
perfect just give me a chance to work this all out.
Danny nots okay. DJ, Well, heck, you've had enough dad
talks over the years. I think I've given you enough

(59:45):
wisdom to handle this on your own. Thanks Dad, DJ smiles.
Danny turns to leave, but says I won't even mention
how important it is to treat each other with respect,
and DJ assures him I got it. Danny admits, sorry,
these dad talks are hard to give up. Once he leaves,
DJ turns to Steph. What do you say we just

(01:00:07):
skipped the speech. Go straight to the hugs and we'll
all start packing. Michelle frowns, no, thank you and strolls
right out.

Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
Great started.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
Stephanie says for the tub, but Dad would be proud.
Would you mind closing the door on your way out?

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
Steph?

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
Come on, DJ pleads, I've given you five years. Give
me five minutes, fine, five minutes, ready go, Steph says,
checking her watch. DJ moves to the edge of the tub.

Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
Steph, I know we.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
Can work this out. We always work things out, and
Steph narrows her eyes. Yeah, but this time it's personal.
DJ pleads, We've been through way too much to throw
it away. Now we've laughed, we've cried. We weren't just roommates,
we were soulmates. Steph isn't buying it very touching. Four minutes,

(01:00:58):
DJ is starting to panic. If you stay here, it
could ruin everything. Is this some kind of revenge because
I've been a terrible sister. Stephanie climbs out of the
tub and admits, No, you've been a great sister. That's
why I don't want you to leave. If you go,
I'll miss everything listening in on your phone, calls, hearing
if you got a date for the weekend, and then

(01:01:19):
reading your diary to hear how it went. She lets
out a chuckle. I'll be right down the hall. You
can visit me whenever you want. My door is always
open unless it's closed. And then you knock Steph's eyes.
But it won't be the same. DJ agrees, well, not
exactly the same. You're going to be the big sister

(01:01:40):
in the room. Michelle's going to look up to you
just like you looked up to me. But one thing
will never change. I'll always be your big sister, and
I'll always love you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
Oh, I'll always love you too, DEEJ.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Steph says, as they hug it out, DJ smiles, well,
now that we got the old team back together, maybe
between the two of us we can out smart Michelle.
Steph waves it off, Pie's a cake and they walk
out together. The girls knock on the door. Michelle, can
we come in from inside? Michelle calls back, whose room

(01:02:15):
is this? It's your room. DJ answers, and Michelle responds, Okay,
come in. Stephanie opens the door to find Michelle seated
on the floor. She dramatically announces, welcome to my room
and points at herself for emphasis. DJ smiles down at
her little sister. If you don't move, you're missing out

(01:02:36):
on a wonderful experience, because living with Stephanie was the
happiest time of my life. Well but I, Michelle points out, then,
why don't you keep her TJ scrambles, Well, I've been
happy long enough. It's time for you to be happy.
She pushes Steph towards her. This is my gift to you.
Stephanie drops to the floor beside her little sister. Michelle,

(01:02:59):
why don't you want to live with me? Michelle crosses
her arms, because you called me a kindergarten baby, Michelle,
Steph claims, well, what I meant to say was you're
in kindergarten, baby, and Michelle scoffs.

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
Nice. Try.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
So Stephanie ops for a different approach. If you'll live
with me, I'll give you a bag of cookies, and
Michelle instantly caves Okay, I'll live with you, and stephan
is shocked.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Really, you're lucky. I love cookies.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
This You know, we could have saved a lot of
time if you had just gone for the sugar kids.

Speaker 2 (01:03:37):
All she wants some snack. I just want some chips, cookies,
some sugar cakes. Some Yeah, that's all she wants.

Speaker 1 (01:03:44):
So Stephanie begins to set some ground rules now that
we're living together.

Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
I only have one rule.

Speaker 1 (01:03:50):
I'm the boss, and Michelle fires back, No, I'm the boss,
and the two of them go back and forth until
DJ swoops in and lifts them off the floor. Oh
this is incredible. You two were made for each other.
DJ nudges them out and victoriously says yes once she
has the room all to herself, and that is our show. Yay,

(01:04:15):
this is this show has finally arrived. This one is
all the moving that's happened in this house.

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
This is shoveling around. Yeah, but yeah, this episode was
always funny. The one where Steph moves into the bath
that was great.

Speaker 1 (01:04:27):
Steph handled it really well. She handled that rejection really well,
like I would have been super.

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
Sad if both my sisters. Right, she was like, well, fine,
screw you, I'm out of here. I'm making a nest
in the bathtub. Right. Yeah, No, that was so true.
I mean, so like, you know, you're you're someone's little sister,
and then you're older than the other ones. You're like,
I don't want to live with you. But then just

(01:04:54):
like your feelings get hurt when your older sister rejects you.
Now you're doing it to end well.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
And I'm glad they explained that the end. Why Michelle
was so crazy, I thought that she wasn't just yeah.
I was like, well, Michelle would love to live with someone.
She's been left alone her whole life. She's probably like
a roommate and she adores her older sisters. But it
makes sense that you insulted her.

Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
First thing I do is I'm like, I don't want
to live with that baby. Yeah, and she's like, well, okay,
you know what, never mind.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
So she was she's been harboring this scrudge for however
many days. So I'm glad they explained that, Yeah, it
all makes sense, it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
Makes total sense. And uh, I still am really pushing
for the uh the Tanner Sisters moving company. There you go.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
You know there's there's definitely a business to be had. Yeah,
you do it quick, you do it instantly.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
Makes complaining right, and.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
No one can No one is even aware that you're
moving furniture, like you're why no, you don't even hear.

Speaker 2 (01:05:48):
Yeah, silent like Ninja's silent, just like Ninja's yep. And
then you get to have you know, hospital grade classes
at your house. This I don't know how I felt.
I guess this was cute, This was funny. I don't
know what else they got. We had to incorporate, like
the I guess the sort of birth plan lama's class,
because that's like the trope, even though I feel like

(01:06:10):
now it's not about like nobody really does the lama's
portion of it. It's more just like coming up with
a birth plan in general, and like, right, here's how
you put a diaper on a baby? Well, yeah, in
like a hospital tour.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
I know we did that hospital tour, but yeah, yeah,
I guess Lamas is sort of out, but it's just yeah,
just here's all the here's all the items you're gonna need,
half of what you won't use, and yeah, it's.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Just do we do we ever see uh Lisa Green
again the Lama's teacher. Do her and Joey ever wind
up going out?

Speaker 1 (01:06:43):
Is this it?

Speaker 2 (01:06:43):
This is the only time this is so? I think this,
I think this is it? Just is it? I don't know?
Just one road runner meep too many? You know, She's like, ah,
that's it. Drop.

Speaker 1 (01:06:53):
He meets these girls that don't mind that he does
the Popeye voice after a kid their first kiss.

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
And then they're never to be seen again.

Speaker 1 (01:07:00):
It's like, come on, it's so rare to find a
woman that's willing to tolerate that and actually enjoys it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:06):
Right, Well, maybe they didn't, Maybe they don't, maybe they
maybe they're they thought they did. And then when it
was the entire the whole date was with Roger Rabbit,
they were like, you know, maybe I should rethink this.
Yeah this was cute at first, but cute weird? Yeah
now it's a little weird, are but no, this was
this was a cute episode. Uh yeah, it was you

(01:07:26):
know Steph in the bathtub. Yep, that was I love it. Yeah,
that was great, great Any everywhere you look moments, I
didn't have any. No, I don't think I had any
either recognize.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Any the pregnant ladies know or their partners you didn't notice. Yeah,
there were nothing, so none for me.

Speaker 2 (01:07:46):
All I do. One thing I did notice is any
of the clothes that Steph is pulling out of the
closet and that are hanging in the bathroom are.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Things I have never ever ever worn. They never worn yet.
Stuff from the wardrobe department doesn't matter. It was like
the prop department.

Speaker 2 (01:08:04):
It was like stuff whatever, Like yeah, it was like
whatever set deck was sort of hanging in the closet,
so it didn't look you know, naked every time you
opened it. But it's like stuff you never does not
you know, you never wear it, kind of crappy and
old and whatever. And but yeah, it was just funny.
I was like, why didn't they just grab some some
of the actual things. I guess we don't want to

(01:08:26):
deal with all that, Like, nobody's gonna notice this.

Speaker 1 (01:08:29):
They didn't know We're doing a rewatch podcast in thirty
King notes over these details. Yes, that's well anyways, great episode.

Speaker 2 (01:08:38):
I did enjoy it. Stuff's in the bathroom loving her
little nest. She's gonna fledge soon and.

Speaker 1 (01:08:43):
I am eager to see. I can't remember what the
girl's room looks like when Michelle moves in. Do you,
I remember you keep your same bed or.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
Do you move to DJs. I moved to DJ space.
You need to space. Remember the walls were kind of
blue and we had there was like a border around
the middle of the wall. I just remember it because
they surprised us. They like the set deck people for
our room and DJ's room, got our input for what

(01:09:13):
we liked, what we were into, what kind of music,
blah blah blah, and then took that and incorporated some
of that into our rooms so that it sort of
genuinely reflected like somebody of that age. And I remember
they surprised. We got to like go for the big
unveiling and they and me and Ashley Mary Kate got
to go like see our room and Cannus got to

(01:09:35):
go see hers. And it was like, oh my god,
it's like somebody you know redoing your room for you.
And that's so cool.

Speaker 1 (01:09:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
I have some cute pictures of me and Ashley, Mary
and Mary Kate like hugging in the brand new room.
I think I'm sitting on my bed and and we're
all like, you know, just a rehearsal day. Yeah, yeah,
look at our new room. So oh that's so cool.

Speaker 1 (01:09:55):
Did they did Michelle take her pencil bed into the
I don't, or does she get a new a new
bird that like her first big girl bit.

Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
Maybe she was like a first big girl, but I don't.
I feel like maybe we didn't. I think they didn't
have the posts at the end, you know what I mean.
I think maybe just probably for shot purposes, you don't want,
you know what I mean, the least amount of bed
frames as possible, right right? But oh yeah, so yeah,
he's coming up soon. I'll be excited to see that.
