Speaker 1 (00:00):
I Am all in again. Oh that's just you.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
I Am All in Town Meeting with Suzanne French and
Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back to
another episode of I'm All in Town Meeting with myself,
Tara and Susanne.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
So we're gonna be talking about Season one, episode seventeen,
The Breakup, Part two, which aired on March fifteenth, two
thousand and one. And before I get into it, Juzane,
I don't know about you, but I like to read
some of the comments because there are things that like
we don't even catch and other people catch and that's
(00:52):
kind of the joy of this show is like everyone's involved,
you know. But I do want to give a little
just a heads up to people listening, because there were
a lot of people saying, like, why are you nitpicking?
Like the boom mic and this and that, and.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
That's the point of town meeting.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So when we did the recap with Scott the first
time around, Suzanne was the one who would point all
those out and people wanted more. And when we're doing
it this time around, obviously Scott is still doing a
recap with a guest every week, but Suzanne and I
took on be nitpicky for lack of a better word,
(01:32):
on the show. And it's not us pulling the show apart.
It's us noticing things that fans who watch over.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
And over again start to notice.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
So just for the people who aren't fully aware of
why we do town meeting, that's kind of the gist
of it. But yeah, and we have so much fun
doing it, and like, I don't know about you, but
I watched the show in a different light when we
talk about these things, Like, I mean, I still enjoy it, right,
but sometimes I'm like, I feel like I need to
watch it twice because I'm like there are things I
miss and sometimes I'm like, I didn't see anything.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
And we jump on and Susanne's like, we there was this, this, this,
and this, but that's the beauty of it.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And then we even like see the comments and sorry
if we see the comments kind of late. Obviously we
record a different day every week, so we might not
be able to catch your comments. But just wanted to
give that little little heads up as we jump into
this episode that I really liked.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Yeah, yeah, I I totally agree with you, and but
we do appreciate the feedback like we do, like we're
seeing everybody's opinion, and I did see one comment that
somebody thought we were too negative all the time, and
that kind of made me feel bad because I love
this show and I still, you know, I still will
(02:45):
put it on and just sit and watch it. Like,
so we're not meaning to come across in a negative flight.
We really do love the show and that's that's why
we're doing this.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
So yeah, but also when you talk to your friends
about a show, like, you know, there's shows that are
airing great example, I love the show Traders that just
wrapped up, but my friends I will text about it
after every episode each week and we're like, oh my god,
I didn't like this person on it, this episode, this, And.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's just a conversation. So we're not being negative, we're
just having a detail. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Well I'm gonna start that that clown pillow was right
there in the opening.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
See it was like an actual clown sitting on the
couch with them, Like it was right there.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, they didn't even try to hide. It wasn't even
like half minute. It was like almost fully in the shot.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, and kind of in an alarming way. It's like,
I don't want to really look at this clown that much.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, my eyes kind of went towards the clown more
than I was looking at Rory. Oh, but I guess
back to just I mean, sorry I jumped right in.
But overall, I mean, I really liked this episode for
many reasons.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
But how did you feel?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
I liked this episode. Two. I really enjoyed it. There
was it had kind of a lot of things that
I like. It had town stuff, it had you know,
chilting stuff, It had some Rachel stuff. It was great.
I thought it was a great It was Max stuff,
had some Max stuff. There was a lot happening in
this episode.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, I mean we even got like Bebet miss Patty
the diner, like really like everything it was all.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It was great. And I love how they tied the
two stories together, like Rory's wallowing and then that make
a r is not wallowing, makes Laura I realize she
never really dealt with the Max thing in her own brain,
and so I just I liked how they tied the
two storylines together. It was great.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Yeah I did too, And we mentioned this before, but
I'm a Max Medina fan. I don't remember you not
really right, not so much.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's a little weird to meet the teacher aspect of it.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean I guess the teacher aspect, yes, but
I think as Max, I really like him for Laura
la If. We took the teacher student element out of it,
and so in this episode I was like, I hate
that I like this, like you know what I mean.
I was like, mad and myself are really liking that
she went over there and now they're having sex? You know?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Yeah, it had it did have kind of a booty
call kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Oh what else was she going over there for?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
To check exactly exactly? And I mentioned this when I
did the recap with Scott, But she clearly went over
there kind of with that on her mind, because otherwise
she could have just waited until the next day to
call him. But she went out of her way to
go borrow Suki's car to drive over there, like she clearly,
which by.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
The way, this is the first time we saw Suki's
house so far in the show, right.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Oh maybe, yeah, I didn't even think about that, but
you're right, because.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
When she walked up them, like who's porch is this?
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Like, it took me a second because I'm like, that's
not hers, and then yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Didn't even think about that, but I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, I mean we've obviously seen it, knowing have watched
the show, but I think for this, I think for
this season in the series so far. Yeah, yeah, and
Suki's hair, well, Melissa McCarthy's hair looked a little bright redder.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
It was. It looked like she had she just.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Got her hair done.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Yeah, she had just had it done. I thought it
was cute though. Speaking of hair, Wlaane's hair at the
party was adorable with the curl.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Good. Also her whole outfit, the whole outfit, the skirt
with the tights and the red.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
It was you know.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
And then the whole time I was thinking of the party,
I'm like, what did they say that missus Kim to
let her go?
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I know we were wondering that because we had just
been through this. If they told her the truth, she
would have said no. So did they lie to her?
Because there was the whole episode with the movies about
this is what happens when you lie to missus Kim.
How did they how did they pull that off?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I don't know, but well, and a couple episodes ago
that whole about Lune.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah. Yeah, so so I don't know how they pulled off,
but it was good to see Lane kind of cutting
loose and having fun.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah. And also I guess jumping to the party.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Those background actors were a little older than high schooler.
There was like two grown ass adults walking in the
background at one point.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I was wondering. I kept like scanning the background to
see if there was like any familiar faces, and I did.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
There wasn't, but.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, it it they there were definitely some you know,
maybe teenager.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Was yeah, of reach.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Our producer Jackie just asked us, did you notice that
this party location is used several times in the series.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I did not where what else was he used for.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I The only one I know of is it's also
Logan's parents' house.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Mmmm, okay, we're jumping.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, we'll see, well, it'll we'll mention it again for
five seasons. That's the only one I know of. I
don't know if Jackie has something else up per sleeve,
but that was the only one. There was also the
outside of the Gilmour realm. It was the ballroom in
Princess Diaries.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I think, Oh my gosh, yes.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yeah, it's the Johiny mansion in.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
La Oh God.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I love Princess Diaries, which, by the way, brings us
back to we've mentioned before that the Chiltern uniform is
very like the uniform in Princess Diaries.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I like that tie together. Yeah, but I did. I
was really proud of Rory for actually, you know what.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I was proud of Rory, and I was proud of
Laurai in the sense of, like Laura I really just
was trying to make her daughter happy and feel better
in this episode, and she's like, let's go do this list,
and they bought god knows what crap, you know, like
throughout the town to make her feel better.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And then Rory was like, I'm going to get.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Out of the house, and it just I was it
was a they were more grown up than they've been
acting that we've seen lately.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So I really liked it.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yeah, and and you can see that. I thought I
felt like Loralai was maybe a little more like to
your point, she's a little more motherly motherly, yeah, you know,
because she's she's trying to kind of nudge Rory in
the direction of you know, wallowing is part of the process.
You have to do it, and you know, I she
(09:30):
was trying to support Rory but also like trying to
prevent her from you know having a you know, derailment.
But yeah, so I thought it was a good Uh,
it was a good episode from that aspect, and then
it all kind of came full circle at the end
when Rory's like got that giant tub.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Of ice, the biggest tub of Ben and Jerry's I have.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I don't does that even exist?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Like did they like make that, Like.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I I don't know. I've never seen it here and
maybe that's like a Vermont thing.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
But is it like when you go to Ben and Jerry's,
like you know, like in the like freezer when they
scoop out, like is it one of those.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, I don't know, but I would I would take
some chunky Monkey if it came.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
In that sun. Right, Oh, Chucky ice cream sounds good
right now. I know, by the way, it's freezing in
LA when we're recording, but.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Yeah, I haven't had ice cream in a while. It
sounds good.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I went to you know what I really like, Sorry,
off topic. I love a good thrifties ice cream. Yeah,
and I love chocolate malted crunch, and I went to CVS.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Uh no, sorry.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I went to Ride Aid the other day because I
needed to pick up medication, and I was like, you
know what, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Get some chocolate malted crunch.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
My favorite was minschip. That was always my.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Oh I do like a good minschip too, but I
feel like minschip by like on a cone. I can't
just like scoop it out. I feel like I need
the full experience.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
And I'm old enough to remember getting thrifty ice cream
at thrifty When Thrifty.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
There was a Thristy store. Oh no, I'm just sorry.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Thrift was a drug store chain and they eventually got
bought out by a CVS. But but yeah, it was.
It was a drug store chain.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
It was. I didn't wait, but was it? There were
there a lot in Los Angeles?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Oh okay.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
In LA we had we had Thrifty and we had
save On were the two big save on.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I do remember save On, yeah, because I lived right
by a Savon. And then now it's ride Aid and CVS.
Is't Friday going bankrupt?
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Right in?
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Yeah? They went They sold a bunch of stores to Walgreens.
And then I think they're eventually closing the rest.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I can't keep track of it, and someone is screaming
at their podcast episode right now, like, you guys are
just going off the rails. I know.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
By the way, Jackie said, there's.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
A whole Reddit thread about the tub of ice cream
from this episode, so we're not alone and talking about this.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
So one thing I noticed. We've talked before about how
time just seems to operate in a different dimension in
Stars Hall, But one thing I noticed. There was a
whole scene about it being six am when Larela I
was in bed and Rory's waking her up. But did
you notice that when they were when right after Luke
and Dean were fighting outside the diner, the clock on
(12:27):
the street said it was like six twenty five, Like,
how did all of that happen in twenty five minutes?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
But see, I was going to call out that when
they walked into the diner and it was like filled
to the brim, they were like, oh, it's the six
am crowd.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I'm like, but you woke up at six.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yeah, So somehow they woke up, got dressed, had the
whole conversation in the kitchen, climbed.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Through the twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Stirs sat down, talk to Rachel, talked to Luke, talked
to Miss Patty, talked to Kirk. Had the fight in
the street all that happened in twenty.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
You know, I really give credit to like the props Department,
because it is hard to keep track of all that,
like it's bound to happen, you know.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
But like, it's just so funny because you know, by
the way.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
When we would watch this and it's like first airing,
we couldn't unless you were recording it back on your VHS.
There was no way to go back, so it didn't
really matter. You were looking at the clock. We're sitting
here watching it for like the twelfth time round, and like,
it's so funny. But yeah, I also noticed say it
was very bright for six am when she woke up.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yes, yes it was. It was a lot. I don't
know if it was like daylight Savings or I don't know,
but yeah, it was full.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Daylight, full daylight, full daylight.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I didn't like the scene though, the one scene I
really did not like this episode, and it kind of
irked me because I'm like, it's so out of character.
Was Luke like having a fight with Dean, like he's
a grown man and he and like, I was so
funny because I forgot or all I says.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
He's sixteen, because it was like is it all sixteen?
Like you're fighting with a sixteen year old?
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And I'm glad that line was in there, but I
kind of was like, why would you push a kid
to not come into your story? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:13):
It just was a lot of character, I thought that scene.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
So there's two ways to look at that scene. You
can you can look at it the way we are
looking at it now in twenty twenty five, and you
can look at it the way that it would have
been in two thousand and one when it was I
thought it was a funny scene. Although like that would
not like if I were to see that in a
show today, I'd be like, dude, what is wrong with
(14:37):
that guy? But in that context, I thought it was funny.
It was Luke.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
To me, it was Luke defend.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Being protective, right, being protective of Rory. He's already you know,
making her the special pancakes, and so he's you know,
he just automatically takes Rory's side, and so I just
kind of saw it through that lens, like you know,
he's going to protect her. But I mean it is
kind of with our with our modern, you know, way
(15:07):
of looking at it, it is kind of not acceptable.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Well not only that, I just thought like Luke wouldn't
do that.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I mean he got like riled up when Orli first
told him, and then he calmed down, and then it
was like got riled up again when he saw him,
which I guess Luke has a bit of a temper.
So I'm not that shocked now, I now that I
talk about it out loud, but you know what I mean,
it just was like, yeah, yeah, maybe as the time,
maybe it is anyway, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
One other thing and it's not it's not really like
a blooper or anything. But there was the kitchen scene.
There was a there was a part where Rory walked
over to the kitchen sink and picked up a glass
and she had like a scrubber thing with a handle.
But she wasn't like washing the glass.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
She just was He was.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Just like, I don't know, she was messing with it.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Yeah, like what did she do? I had to rewind it?
And she she has the glass and she picks up
some dish soap and then you just see her with
this brush thing, but she's not like actually washing the glass.
It just looked I don't know, it looked weird.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It probably just it was like nervous energy. They needed
her to do something.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Yeah, and her notebook paper. She was writing in a
spiral notebook. But when but the loose page didn't have
like you know when you pull something out of the
spiral note It didn't have a yeah paper on the edge,
it didn't have that. It was like this perfectly neat.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
They were like, we're just gonna save a step, like
skip a step, you know.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And and it also the paper was also blank, which
I noticed.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
So much for the list, but yeah, I wish that
listed more of what was on the list, because they
came back with a bunch of random stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
But I'm like, what was on there? What did she They.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Clearly went to like home depot or something, because they
came back with all like sprinklers and garden weasels and
a garden hose.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
But then the first thing on the list that she
read was like a soap holder, right.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Yeah, and then they mentioned the recycling center or something.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, it was I don't know, but they really got
a lot done that day.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I guess it was they just wanted to emphasize. It
was really to distract Rory. So it was like something
completely off the wall.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
How does she even come up with that stuff? Like
if I'm sad, I just leave the house. I don't
like sit there at you know what I mean, Like
I'm like, I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
For a walk, or i'd go like by makeup or something.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, clothes, make up, retail therapy. She has
a different version of retail therapy housewares.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Anyway, was there anything else we had?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
The only thing I had in the diner when Laura I.
When Luke first comes down and Laura I is talking
to him, did you notice there was a guy sitting
at the counter. Yes, and she's like she pushed him over,
like she's literally leaning over his shoulder to talk to Luke.
And then in the next shot he's like a barstool over.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I totally noticed that because I'm like, she's like groping
this year.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
The directory probably like dude, you're too clothes, move over.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
You way too much came. I noticed that too.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I actually forgot to mention it because it went away
so quickly that I like also was like, no whatever,
but she literally was like all on his shoulder, and
then it switched to show Luke and then it went
back to Laura and then she has like full counterspace.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
It was so awkward.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, I think it was just.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I also just think it was to show how crowded
it was at that time. But it was just funny
because then I would have liked if she kind of
like maneuvered around him, like you know, like kind of
like like.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Pushed him over. But yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
It was funny. Oh man, all right, Well I think
that's it for this episode, right, yep, I think that's it,
all right. So the next episode is season one, episode eighteen,
the third Laura I and Meeting adjourny. Hey everybody, and

I Am All in Town Meeting with Suzanne French and
Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back to
another episode of I'm All in Town Meeting with myself,
Tara and Susanne.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
So we're gonna be talking about Season one, episode seventeen,
The Breakup, Part two, which aired on March fifteenth, two
thousand and one. And before I get into it, Juzane,
I don't know about you, but I like to read
some of the comments because there are things that like
we don't even catch and other people catch and that's
(00:52):
kind of the joy of this show is like everyone's involved,
you know. But I do want to give a little
just a heads up to people listening, because there were
a lot of people saying, like, why are you nitpicking?
Like the boom mic and this and that, and.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
That's the point of town meeting.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So when we did the recap with Scott the first
time around, Suzanne was the one who would point all
those out and people wanted more. And when we're doing
it this time around, obviously Scott is still doing a
recap with a guest every week, but Suzanne and I
took on be nitpicky for lack of a better word,
(01:32):
on the show. And it's not us pulling the show apart.
It's us noticing things that fans who watch over.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
And over again start to notice.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
So just for the people who aren't fully aware of
why we do town meeting, that's kind of the gist
of it. But yeah, and we have so much fun
doing it, and like, I don't know about you, but
I watched the show in a different light when we
talk about these things, Like, I mean, I still enjoy it, right,
but sometimes I'm like, I feel like I need to
watch it twice because I'm like there are things I
miss and sometimes I'm like, I didn't see anything.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
And we jump on and Susanne's like, we there was this, this, this,
and this, but that's the beauty of it.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And then we even like see the comments and sorry
if we see the comments kind of late. Obviously we
record a different day every week, so we might not
be able to catch your comments. But just wanted to
give that little little heads up as we jump into
this episode that I really liked.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Yeah, yeah, I I totally agree with you, and but
we do appreciate the feedback like we do, like we're
seeing everybody's opinion, and I did see one comment that
somebody thought we were too negative all the time, and
that kind of made me feel bad because I love
this show and I still, you know, I still will
(02:45):
put it on and just sit and watch it. Like,
so we're not meaning to come across in a negative flight.
We really do love the show and that's that's why
we're doing this.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
So yeah, but also when you talk to your friends
about a show, like, you know, there's shows that are
airing great example, I love the show Traders that just
wrapped up, but my friends I will text about it
after every episode each week and we're like, oh my god,
I didn't like this person on it, this episode, this, And.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's just a conversation. So we're not being negative, we're
just having a detail. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Well I'm gonna start that that clown pillow was right
there in the opening.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
See it was like an actual clown sitting on the
couch with them, Like it was right there.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, they didn't even try to hide. It wasn't even
like half minute. It was like almost fully in the shot.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, and kind of in an alarming way. It's like,
I don't want to really look at this clown that much.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, my eyes kind of went towards the clown more
than I was looking at Rory. Oh, but I guess
back to just I mean, sorry I jumped right in.
But overall, I mean, I really liked this episode for
many reasons.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
But how did you feel?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
I liked this episode. Two. I really enjoyed it. There
was it had kind of a lot of things that
I like. It had town stuff, it had you know,
chilting stuff, It had some Rachel stuff. It was great.
I thought it was a great It was Max stuff,
had some Max stuff. There was a lot happening in
this episode.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, I mean we even got like Bebet miss Patty
the diner, like really like everything it was all.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It was great. And I love how they tied the
two stories together, like Rory's wallowing and then that make
a r is not wallowing, makes Laura I realize she
never really dealt with the Max thing in her own brain,
and so I just I liked how they tied the
two storylines together. It was great.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Yeah I did too, And we mentioned this before, but
I'm a Max Medina fan. I don't remember you not
really right, not so much.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's a little weird to meet the teacher aspect of it.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean I guess the teacher aspect, yes, but
I think as Max, I really like him for Laura
la If. We took the teacher student element out of it,
and so in this episode I was like, I hate
that I like this, like you know what I mean.
I was like, mad and myself are really liking that
she went over there and now they're having sex? You know?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Yeah, it had it did have kind of a booty
call kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Oh what else was she going over there for?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
To check exactly exactly? And I mentioned this when I
did the recap with Scott, But she clearly went over
there kind of with that on her mind, because otherwise
she could have just waited until the next day to
call him. But she went out of her way to
go borrow Suki's car to drive over there, like she clearly,
which by.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
The way, this is the first time we saw Suki's
house so far in the show, right.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Oh maybe, yeah, I didn't even think about that, but
you're right, because.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
When she walked up them, like who's porch is this?
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Like, it took me a second because I'm like, that's
not hers, and then yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Didn't even think about that, but I think you're right.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, I mean we've obviously seen it, knowing have watched
the show, but I think for this, I think for
this season in the series so far. Yeah, yeah, and
Suki's hair, well, Melissa McCarthy's hair looked a little bright redder.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
It was. It looked like she had she just.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Got her hair done.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Yeah, she had just had it done. I thought it
was cute though. Speaking of hair, Wlaane's hair at the
party was adorable with the curl.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Good. Also her whole outfit, the whole outfit, the skirt
with the tights and the red.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
It was you know.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
And then the whole time I was thinking of the party,
I'm like, what did they say that missus Kim to
let her go?
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I know we were wondering that because we had just
been through this. If they told her the truth, she
would have said no. So did they lie to her?
Because there was the whole episode with the movies about
this is what happens when you lie to missus Kim.
How did they how did they pull that off?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I don't know, but well, and a couple episodes ago
that whole about Lune.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah. Yeah, so so I don't know how they pulled off,
but it was good to see Lane kind of cutting
loose and having fun.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah. And also I guess jumping to the party.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Those background actors were a little older than high schooler.
There was like two grown ass adults walking in the
background at one point.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I was wondering. I kept like scanning the background to
see if there was like any familiar faces, and I did.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
There wasn't, but.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, it it they there were definitely some you know,
maybe teenager.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Was yeah, of reach.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Our producer Jackie just asked us, did you notice that
this party location is used several times in the series.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I did not where what else was he used for.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I The only one I know of is it's also
Logan's parents' house.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Mmmm, okay, we're jumping.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, we'll see, well, it'll we'll mention it again for
five seasons. That's the only one I know of. I
don't know if Jackie has something else up per sleeve,
but that was the only one. There was also the
outside of the Gilmour realm. It was the ballroom in
Princess Diaries.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I think, Oh my gosh, yes.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yeah, it's the Johiny mansion in.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
La Oh God.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I love Princess Diaries, which, by the way, brings us
back to we've mentioned before that the Chiltern uniform is
very like the uniform in Princess Diaries.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I like that tie together. Yeah, but I did. I
was really proud of Rory for actually, you know what.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I was proud of Rory, and I was proud of
Laurai in the sense of, like Laura I really just
was trying to make her daughter happy and feel better
in this episode, and she's like, let's go do this list,
and they bought god knows what crap, you know, like
throughout the town to make her feel better.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And then Rory was like, I'm going to get.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Out of the house, and it just I was it
was a they were more grown up than they've been
acting that we've seen lately.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So I really liked it.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yeah, and and you can see that. I thought I
felt like Loralai was maybe a little more like to
your point, she's a little more motherly motherly, yeah, you know,
because she's she's trying to kind of nudge Rory in
the direction of you know, wallowing is part of the process.
You have to do it, and you know, I she
(09:30):
was trying to support Rory but also like trying to
prevent her from you know having a you know, derailment.
But yeah, so I thought it was a good Uh,
it was a good episode from that aspect, and then
it all kind of came full circle at the end
when Rory's like got that giant tub.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Of ice, the biggest tub of Ben and Jerry's I have.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I don't does that even exist?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Like did they like make that, Like.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I I don't know. I've never seen it here and
maybe that's like a Vermont thing.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
But is it like when you go to Ben and Jerry's,
like you know, like in the like freezer when they
scoop out, like is it one of those.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, I don't know, but I would I would take
some chunky Monkey if it came.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
In that sun. Right, Oh, Chucky ice cream sounds good
right now. I know, by the way, it's freezing in
LA when we're recording, but.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Yeah, I haven't had ice cream in a while. It
sounds good.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I went to you know what I really like, Sorry,
off topic. I love a good thrifties ice cream. Yeah,
and I love chocolate malted crunch, and I went to CVS.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Uh no, sorry.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I went to Ride Aid the other day because I
needed to pick up medication, and I was like, you
know what, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Get some chocolate malted crunch.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
My favorite was minschip. That was always my.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Oh I do like a good minschip too, but I
feel like minschip by like on a cone. I can't
just like scoop it out. I feel like I need
the full experience.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
And I'm old enough to remember getting thrifty ice cream
at thrifty When Thrifty.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
There was a Thristy store. Oh no, I'm just sorry.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Thrift was a drug store chain and they eventually got
bought out by a CVS. But but yeah, it was.
It was a drug store chain.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
It was. I didn't wait, but was it? There were
there a lot in Los Angeles?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Oh okay.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
In LA we had we had Thrifty and we had
save On were the two big save on.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I do remember save On, yeah, because I lived right
by a Savon. And then now it's ride Aid and CVS.
Is't Friday going bankrupt?
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Right in?
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Yeah? They went They sold a bunch of stores to Walgreens.
And then I think they're eventually closing the rest.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I can't keep track of it, and someone is screaming
at their podcast episode right now, like, you guys are
just going off the rails. I know.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
By the way, Jackie said, there's.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
A whole Reddit thread about the tub of ice cream
from this episode, so we're not alone and talking about this.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
So one thing I noticed. We've talked before about how
time just seems to operate in a different dimension in
Stars Hall, But one thing I noticed. There was a
whole scene about it being six am when Larela I
was in bed and Rory's waking her up. But did
you notice that when they were when right after Luke
and Dean were fighting outside the diner, the clock on
(12:27):
the street said it was like six twenty five, Like,
how did all of that happen in twenty five minutes?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
But see, I was going to call out that when
they walked into the diner and it was like filled
to the brim, they were like, oh, it's the six
am crowd.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I'm like, but you woke up at six.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yeah, So somehow they woke up, got dressed, had the
whole conversation in the kitchen, climbed.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Through the twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Stirs sat down, talk to Rachel, talked to Luke, talked
to Miss Patty, talked to Kirk. Had the fight in
the street all that happened in twenty.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
You know, I really give credit to like the props Department,
because it is hard to keep track of all that,
like it's bound to happen, you know.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
But like, it's just so funny because you know, by
the way.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
When we would watch this and it's like first airing,
we couldn't unless you were recording it back on your VHS.
There was no way to go back, so it didn't
really matter. You were looking at the clock. We're sitting
here watching it for like the twelfth time round, and like,
it's so funny. But yeah, I also noticed say it
was very bright for six am when she woke up.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Yes, yes it was. It was a lot. I don't
know if it was like daylight Savings or I don't know,
but yeah, it was full.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Daylight, full daylight, full daylight.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I didn't like the scene though, the one scene I
really did not like this episode, and it kind of
irked me because I'm like, it's so out of character.
Was Luke like having a fight with Dean, like he's
a grown man and he and like, I was so
funny because I forgot or all I says.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
He's sixteen, because it was like is it all sixteen?
Like you're fighting with a sixteen year old?
Speaker 2 (14:05):
And I'm glad that line was in there, but I
kind of was like, why would you push a kid
to not come into your story? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:13):
It just was a lot of character, I thought that scene.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
So there's two ways to look at that scene. You
can you can look at it the way we are
looking at it now in twenty twenty five, and you
can look at it the way that it would have
been in two thousand and one when it was I
thought it was a funny scene. Although like that would
not like if I were to see that in a
show today, I'd be like, dude, what is wrong with
(14:37):
that guy? But in that context, I thought it was funny.
It was Luke.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
To me, it was Luke defend.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Being protective, right, being protective of Rory. He's already you know,
making her the special pancakes, and so he's you know,
he just automatically takes Rory's side, and so I just
kind of saw it through that lens, like you know,
he's going to protect her. But I mean it is
kind of with our with our modern, you know, way
(15:07):
of looking at it, it is kind of not acceptable.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Well not only that, I just thought like Luke wouldn't
do that.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I mean he got like riled up when Orli first
told him, and then he calmed down, and then it
was like got riled up again when he saw him,
which I guess Luke has a bit of a temper.
So I'm not that shocked now, I now that I
talk about it out loud, but you know what I mean,
it just was like, yeah, yeah, maybe as the time,
maybe it is anyway, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
One other thing and it's not it's not really like
a blooper or anything. But there was the kitchen scene.
There was a there was a part where Rory walked
over to the kitchen sink and picked up a glass
and she had like a scrubber thing with a handle.
But she wasn't like washing the glass.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
She just was He was.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Just like, I don't know, she was messing with it.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Yeah, like what did she do? I had to rewind it?
And she she has the glass and she picks up
some dish soap and then you just see her with
this brush thing, but she's not like actually washing the glass.
It just looked I don't know, it looked weird.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It probably just it was like nervous energy. They needed
her to do something.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Yeah, and her notebook paper. She was writing in a
spiral notebook. But when but the loose page didn't have
like you know when you pull something out of the
spiral note It didn't have a yeah paper on the edge,
it didn't have that. It was like this perfectly neat.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
They were like, we're just gonna save a step, like
skip a step, you know.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And and it also the paper was also blank, which
I noticed.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
So much for the list, but yeah, I wish that
listed more of what was on the list, because they
came back with a bunch of random stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
But I'm like, what was on there? What did she They.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Clearly went to like home depot or something, because they
came back with all like sprinklers and garden weasels and
a garden hose.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
But then the first thing on the list that she
read was like a soap holder, right.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Yeah, and then they mentioned the recycling center or something.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, it was I don't know, but they really got
a lot done that day.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I guess it was they just wanted to emphasize. It
was really to distract Rory. So it was like something
completely off the wall.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
How does she even come up with that stuff? Like
if I'm sad, I just leave the house. I don't
like sit there at you know what I mean, Like
I'm like, I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
For a walk, or i'd go like by makeup or something.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, clothes, make up, retail therapy. She has
a different version of retail therapy housewares.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Anyway, was there anything else we had?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
The only thing I had in the diner when Laura I.
When Luke first comes down and Laura I is talking
to him, did you notice there was a guy sitting
at the counter. Yes, and she's like she pushed him over,
like she's literally leaning over his shoulder to talk to Luke.
And then in the next shot he's like a barstool over.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I totally noticed that because I'm like, she's like groping
this year.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
The directory probably like dude, you're too clothes, move over.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
You way too much came. I noticed that too.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I actually forgot to mention it because it went away
so quickly that I like also was like, no whatever,
but she literally was like all on his shoulder, and
then it switched to show Luke and then it went
back to Laura and then she has like full counterspace.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
It was so awkward.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, I think it was just.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I also just think it was to show how crowded
it was at that time. But it was just funny
because then I would have liked if she kind of
like maneuvered around him, like you know, like kind of
like like.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Pushed him over. But yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
It was funny. Oh man, all right, Well I think
that's it for this episode, right, yep, I think that's it,
all right. So the next episode is season one, episode eighteen,
the third Laura I and Meeting adjourny. Hey everybody, and
