Speaker 1 (00:19):
With Christmas just around the corner, we wanted to celebrate
the holidays the only way we know how with former
Boy Meets World dialogue coach and Yule Tide expert Chris
Kier with our very own Chris Kier's Christmas Corner to
remind those who may have forgotten, or to fill those
in who may have missed his interview episode. Chris, for many,
many years had a pop up shop in Los Angeles,

(00:42):
one we visited last year, and he sells thousands of
vintage and unique ornaments, dolls, Chotchkes, and Santa's he collected
from all over the world and he even had a
large Boy Meets World prop sign in his store that
you could take a picture with. Well, this year, he
decided to take his brick and mortar business online, and
he's here with us to talk a little bit about

(01:04):
Christmas and update us on the festive comings and goings
of Chris Kier in December. So let's talk to the
Saint Nick of Pod Meets World. Please welcome back, Chris Kier.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Eh, where did that year go?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Is what I want to know.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
I know, it feels like we were just with you.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Yeah, look younger, say Danielle say yes, I do you do?

Speaker 1 (01:30):
You look fantastic. How is it going? How is your
holiday season so far?

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Well, here's the thing. Last year I had the store. Yeah,
and I had it for twenty years, and the hardest
part is finding a four month lease. Realtors open, term
of calls, landlords won't. So what obviously happened was I
closed the store for good last season. I'm glad you
guys got in and will we missed you.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
I know, I'm sorry I wasn't there. I'm so sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh it was great.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
And the thing is that I start January first, traveling
and going around the world finding things, and I pack
it all up, price it, so it's a whole damble.
August rolls around. I'm hitting the pavement by myself, hitting
knocking on doors. And I lucked out the last four years,
and now I was pushing my luck. So now I've
gone online, which I hate. I miss all. I miss
seeing the people. That's the hardest part about it.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah, and also just creating that atmosphere. I feel like
that was so much of the fun. It was that story,
just being like Christmas everywhere.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Yeah, it's like going to the small Disneyland, right rider.
It was experience. Yes, it was a world that I created.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Discovery and all these little nooks and crannies of things
that yeah, I mean, Indy was just lost in it.
It was so fun.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
I love that because as kids, when I grew up Michigan,
we had those little department stores that had that kind
of charm, you know what I mean, Yeah, not at
all like that. And well in Connecticut you must have
had those old department stores. I had the windows that were.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Oh yeah, absolutely, Tea Fox and all those companies that
they do up the Christmas windows and everybody go down
and check it out and you sit on Standa's lap. Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
And I don't know if you knew this, but my
father had men's clothing stores. I fear if I talked
this last time a year ago, but I was raising
men's clothing stores at nine years old up. So that's
where the retail comes in for me. But he he
did the windows. There were mechanical things in the windows
of the parks had all of that. So my store
had that retro feel. It was an experience from yesteryear.
Maybe come back one day, you never know.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
I could definitely come back. It can definitely Christmases every year, Chris,
it can definitely come back.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
But I miss the people. I'm missing the people. That's
I'm missing more than anything.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Well, what has the online experience been like?

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Well, it's not my thing, to be honest with you,
I'm on a Apple call whatnot.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
If you guys have heard of it, good.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
I'm at Christopher Dashkire And what I do is, I
literally it's my own qv she show. I am literally
a host selling all these treasures I've gotten from around
the world. But I go live and then people.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Bid on it. It's what fun.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
I know, it's fun and I get comments, but I
want to see the people. But it's fun and they've
enjoyed it. And I also sell it on my website
at Christopher Kire's Christmas Corner on Facebook. And so it's
been it's been an interesting year. I got more time
they've ever had in a long time, and I'm you know,
I'm going to the gym more. I'm doing things for myself.
I went to the Hollywood Christmas Parade. Some of you

(03:59):
were in that.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Oh my gosh, Ben and I did it every year. Okay,
I hadn't been.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
In twenty years. Because I had this door right and
I kept waiting for the Boy Meets World float.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
It was Rodney Dangerfield.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
There, No, that would be amazing. I think he's unavailable.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
I never heard of you, honey, you ever heard of
this show. It's a cute show.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
So it's been an interesting season so far. And as
you can see behind me, I'm in the Caire Castle,
which is high up in the Hollywood Hills. Have any
of you been up your car? Did you ever get
up your wheel?

Speaker 4 (04:29):
I was up there. I casta that's right.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
So since then I've done a lot of additions to it,
and I've recreated the nineteen twenties field to the house.
But behind me, I haven't been able to put this
tree up. I have a twelve foot tree I didn't
put up this year. But behind me is all of
these vintage ornaments are from the nineteen forties, fifties and sixties.
It's the museum people. A post video of this and
close up to these ornaments on my Facebook page. But
the thing is, I call it a memory for you guys,

(04:54):
because what we do is we go to the garage.
We take out a shoe box with little wrap things
in tissue, right, and then we put Oh, Susie made
this a kindergarten.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, oh, my aunt I.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Had this other tree every year, so it becomes a
memory tree. So that's what it is for all of us.
It's not really Christmas. It's a memory tree. There's something
about that, that feeling we get every year going to
visit these little trinkets.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Absolutely, Do you have any you'd like to like? Do
you have any you'd like to show off to us?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Well, this particular tree, my grandmother had ornaments just like this. Here,
this bird right here. I can't take off the tree,
you might break, but the little clip on birds here,
I can get this one here. This is something that
had on the trees made in Germany, these clip on trees.
You might recognize birds on the tree, you might recognize these.
My grandmother had these, and so for me when I
put these on the tree this year, I was like,
oh my goodness, it's long gone grandmother, but she sure

(05:42):
had that tradition of having me come over and put
up the tree for her as a small kid. So
I know what it's like. And you, guys, there's a
way to put up your Christmas tree. People don't know this.
If you're getting a live tree or an artificial tree.
There's different ways for the artificial tree or the live tree.
The first thing you have to do is set it
in there and make sure it's not crooked, because they
have a lot of fights with my family about.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
It being croudy oh, I remember those.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
So make sure it's set piece supply would around, set
inside the squares around the trunk with the screws going
into it. We'll keep it steady, okay. The other thing
you have to do is this and listen carefully. If
you're decorating only one side, which most people do, because
against the wall or in the corner, you have to
literally take two screw eyes, put it into the wall
on either side of the tree, run wire for a
while around the trunk and to the other one, so

(06:25):
you're folding the tree in place. Because so many trees
fall over during the season. You guys the.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
Wall of that In Connecticut, we did that in case
my dad wanted the biggest tree possible, so we would
have like a fifteen foot tree, and he needed the
We had the wires and the eelets are there all
year long and everything's just set up right dead with you.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Yeah, you how your parents for me, they're great people,
remember parents like me very boy's parents. So the thing
is is you've got that set, then you start from
the top with the lights. You do the lights first, okay.
If you've shaped the tree with an artificial tree like
this shoes, you pull two fronds out and one up,
two fronds up, one up, So then when you get
a nice ranch that's nice and clear. Okay. But the
issue is this, you start from the top down doing

(07:05):
the lights on each limb, and don't do more than
three stands strands at a time. Have a nice strip
that goes up the center with separate different outlets in
the cord, and then you plug your lights into that.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
But if you do the.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Strands back to back more than three, they're gonna blow
the fuse. They're gonna blow the fuse inside the strand
of lights, and then you're messed up.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
I love these tips.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
So then the other thing is that this is the
biggest mistake you guys, everybody makes. They put the tree
top or the star on last. You put on first,
because you're lifting a kid, you're knocking off over runs,
You're not going the tree trying to get on top
of it. You put it on first, and you work
from the top down.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Very smart.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
And before you do all of this, because I have glass,
I bilow a comforter around the tree. So when and
I do drop my glass ornaments, they never break on
my wooden floor.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
So smart, and.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Keep moving around, keep moving around. But again going back
to that top tree topper, put on first, work with
the smaller ornaments on top down to the larger ornaments
in the bottom. Right.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
It's just anti narrative. I just like the I like
the climactic, like we finished the tree, let's put it on.
It's just shame so appropriate. I want to do it narratively. Man,
I don't know if I could do this. I think
it's my story. Let's start with the end and now flashbacks.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
No, about the third year, when ornaments are falling off,
the kid almost falls into the tree. I think time
to realize, there's are doing a tree right. No one's
going to know you put on last. But I get
what you're saying, but it's so hard to do. Do
you push that ladder?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
You know you're you're very practical.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Now how far down the tree do you get before
the wine and the crying starts? Because i know where
it is in our family, and I'm just curious where
because my we when when Susan hits anything from like
an old dog, she grew up with something like that,
and the tears start flowing, the wine starts pouring, and
by the end it's justin Bieber on a loop and
a blubbering mess. I'm a family tradition.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
That part of the whole thing, that's part of the
whole experience. But you know, I've never been a person
that lives in the past. Okay, I live in today
and what I can do in the future. But I recall, yeah,
I'm sure passed away last year, my best friend passed away.
I think we talked. Oh no, it was shortly after
my podcast, but he passed away, and I'm taking care
of his whole collection of Christmas things. But he lived
in the past and all of his things were the past.

(09:19):
He never lived for today. And for me, I like
creating memories today, Like I went alone to the Hollywood Parade.
All my friends the past away out of la now
so no one could go with me, So I went alone,
but I created my own memory to go. So I
think most of us we want to wallow in things.
But I think if you wallow in it, it only
perpetuates more sadness. But for me is to look at
it and to say my grandmother loved.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
This, Yes, exactly to celebrate.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Saying, oh I wish she was here, I wish she
was here. We all start past when we're here. Sure,
I think if living for today is enjoying what you
do have, magnify what you do have.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
That's a lot of it.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
And you, guys, I got to thank you for some people.
So last year when I had my store, I would
venture to say close to two hundred do Boy Meets World.
People came in to see me from Sacramento, from San Diego,
from Palm Springs, from Arizona, drove in to meet me
at my store to see this coast with the Santaland sign.

(10:13):
It was the prop from the show. It was amazing
and I picked up students from my acting classes just
you were the guy from me. I heard your pod
meets World of podcasts, Boy meets World podcasts, and I
just want to get my kids in your classes, so
I do zoom cap classes.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
This is this is what we've been experiencing, is like
ever since we started this podcast. Our our sense of
community and connectivity is just it's awesome. And you know, yeah,
it's such as.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
From your your your people, to emails, a lot of emails.
They want me to start my own podcast. I don't
know how to start it, but I can. I'm the talent.
So I've got to hire somebody who's gonna set it
all up for me, and it will be my entertainment career.
How to work on cruise ships, Walt Disney World, work
in the circus, having people on from around the world
I worked with through these years, you know what I mean.

(10:57):
So I'm thinking about that a podcast, and.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
Then right around Christmas, it's got to be the Twelve
Days of Caire.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Yes, I see it.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
I visualize it because I've had so much time in
my hands. What's my next? My next? I'm always into
my next, and it's been enough time for me now
that I put it all together to think, Okay, now,
what's my next chapter going to?

Speaker 4 (11:17):
I love it in my life.

Speaker 1 (11:18):

Bye bye.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah we have we have a legendary I was gonna
say when he was talking about the tree falling. We
had one one year where I haven't talked about on
the podcast. How obsessed my family is with charades and
yeah and games where you act them out. So we
had this legendary uh charades game in front of a
Christmas tree. My mother in law completely took out Christmas.

(13:35):
It was one of the funniest but also scariest moment,
you know, we're all like who we're going And then
of course now it's like legendary. I was like, this
is about ten years ago.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
We still like, can you remember what she was charading?

Speaker 2 (13:46):
No? No, I just remember her like getting so into
it and then falling and losing her balance, and it
was like, no, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Oh man, Well, welcome to Pod meets Christmas Official.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'm right or strong, and I'm will ba humbug for Dell.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Oh, I'm so excited. This is the only thing Will's not.
He's the only thing he's a ba humbug about.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
I am. It's true. I'm the happiest guy in the
world Christmas all year long. You just don't care. No,
I find it. I find you talk. You're the one
who talks about commercialism all the time. It is stress, miss.
It's it's starting earlier and earlier and earlier every year.
It's just about buying the most ridiculous amount of gifts
you can.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
No crazy, you have to buy anything.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
We don't even really everyone does, but everyone does.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Yeah, but that's one side of I mean, what about
just like the I just because you like childlike imaginative things.
It seems so you're ever.

Speaker 4 (14:44):
Christmas is never my thing. Community trying. I'm trying to
get sad with whiskey. I mean.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Everything you just said without the now five hundred dollars, well.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Who cares about the but the lights, the light the like, oh,
just just like the sense of like like he talks
to you know, Chris was talking about how you don't
want to like be sad. But I actually think there's
something nice about like the Madelin like, oh, let's just
embrace the sadness. Let's just like ozy up. Oh, it's
so fun. I love the holidays because I was born
in December, so I always associate.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Like, yeah, my birthday December.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
Yeah right, and my son was born in December. There's
a lot to celebrates the December. What indies December twenty eighth.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
December twenty eight, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Which is two elevens plus seven, which is the lucky number.
So if it's two eleventh plus seventh plus you're.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
Making this uprider like worse, does Indy get screwed out
of presence because he was born so close to Christmas?

Speaker 2 (15:43):
Yeah? No, I mean no, trust me, the kid does
not know. We have to tell the grandparents, like one
present each the first couple of years. It's gross. It's
so gross, so we very much limit the presence. No,
he gets screwed on celebrating because we can't have a
birthday party with his friends because everyone leaves town for
the hall. Yeah, and so we end up, like what
ends up happening is we have like four birthday parties.

(16:05):
We have like the one for one set of grandparents
when we're with them, the other for the other set
of grandparents, the one on the actual day when we're
with him, the one best friend from.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Stue just a one family thing on his actual day,
and then start celebrating his half birthday big party on
his half Briday right in June, you know, because then
you get six months away from a birthday holiday thing.
It's in the middle of the year. It's a reason
to get everyone together. It's summer, you know, like at
the beginning of summer. You guys just pick a random day.

Speaker 4 (16:30):
By the way, you're both invited. Sue and I definitely
starting this year, have been talking about it for years
and years and years, and we're absolutely doing it. We
will be celebrating a second Thanksgiving in May. I'm dead serious,
all the trimmings, exact Thanksgiving dinner, everything you get him.
Were getting a bunch, and why six months from now
we're doing it again.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
I'm there. I'm there.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
No, Turkey's overrated most of the I mean, I'll come,
I'll come, dang out. I'll bring whiskey and I'm not
gonna be I'll be whiskey in my I.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Just would like to point out that the one who
loves death is just happy about all of it. I'll
be there. I love the Thanksgiving, I love the Christmas,
I love the summer.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Everything. I love everybody.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Did you love it this episode?

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Did you love a lot about it? We will discuss.
We are here to talk about season three, episode twenty two,
Brother Brother. It originally aired.

Speaker 4 (17:33):
Yeah, finally is what I would say.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
The finally you didn't like season three?

Speaker 4 (17:38):
No, I did like. I like see.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yes, we'll talk about it with Brummy's world.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
World to recap did not set season three by any
stretch of the imagination. Okay, there's peaks and valleys.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Like everything, absolutely so. It originally aired May seventeenth, nineteen
ninety six. The synopsis. After learning about all of his
friends out of town, plans for the summer and his
brother going off to college. Corey becomes worried about the
prospects of spending the entire break by himself. It was written,
It was directed by Jeff McCracken. It was written by
Mark Bluman and Howard bus Gang. Quite a season three.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Season two and three, it's like all that because they
had like six and season two. I mean they're just yes,
so much so.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Guest starring Lindsay Ridgeway as Morgan Matthews. And this is
Alex Desayer's final appearance on the show.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Solid Solid Got a line? Does he even have a
line he has? I think, I think where he talks
to you, but then he's also in Chubbies. I don't
think he's has a word, just there as an extra.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
If there's any other example of a more wasted incredible
talent on a show ever, or Alex on season three
of Boy Means yep. So we jump into our recap.
In the school hallway, Eric is cleaning out his locker
when mister Turner and mister Williams approach him with a box.
They have a gift from the teachers before he leaves
John Adams. Eric thinks it's a graduation gift, but mister

(19:12):
Williams corrects him, it's a confiscation gift. He pulls out
what looks like a folded bed sheet from the box.
Eric unfolds it and says, my giant undervans.

Speaker 4 (19:21):
IOK, it's just a guess, a funny word, and as Yeah,
it's funny.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
And you also become Seinfeld.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, it's such a perfect read. It's so funny. And
then mister Turner pulls out his personal favorite, the feene Puppet. Ah,
Little George, Eric exclaims. Turner says, we'll leave you two alone,
and they take off. That's basically it for Eli.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
It is.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
How do you guys feel about the whole puppet? The
whole puppet?

Speaker 4 (19:53):
Well, the puppet became a famous thing, but I conflated
it with the So this is the first of two
Feenie Puppets. Okay, because the.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Last episode really anti climactic to me, just like we
did with the.

Speaker 4 (20:05):
Show the Fenie Puppet with where it's Eric's voice doing
the Phoenie call. So this is this is a second,
the first of two times we see.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
Okay, that makes me feel better because I was like,
this seems like a waste.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
Because we have seen a lot of Phenie puppets at
our live shows, and so we especially like this. I
think it is this.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, I mean we really You only have the one
beat with Corey, which is funny but not like amazing.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
Wait I'm wrong, No, I'm wrong. Our fans were just
screaming at the radio. I'm wrong. The second puppet is
an Eric puppet. It's not a Peenie puppet. This is
the this is.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
It, Okay, this is it.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
I feel like I feel like, well, you know, maybe
maybe maybe in general, I feel like this episode could
could have used a little bit of a re right
and this you know, there was like a lot of
good ideas and then just like this the execution, I
was kind of like, wait, but I really like the
emotional core of this episode. I think it's a nice
way to end the season and to wrap up Eric storyline,
which has been mostly played for comedy, to play it

(21:03):
for drama. I love all those choices, but like even
this the puppet, I was sort of like, Oh, there's
gonna be some great puppet stuff, and then it was
kind of like just okay, yeah, fine, you know, and
it's not you like you obviously funny. It was just
like and I you know, the actually like drive it
right into the ground. And the next scene when you
go to Corey, you're doing some puppet stuff and then
Corey is just like I don't like the puppet ye,

(21:26):
and then lose the puppet.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
It's like yeah, wow.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
But I kind of.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Felt like maybe they were just kind of like the writers.
I feel like the writers were rushed. I think because
of Disney World. Everything was a little rush this week,
and I feel like they probably were riffing on thinking
it was so funny with you and the fake Corey
from the previous episode that it was like, give Will
more props. We didn't work comedy just came up some
props and they just said and then like didn't really

(21:52):
think it all the way through or like work it
all the way out because it just kind of okay.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I agree. I like the whole
story like this of the brothers not all that stuff
and Corey being left behind by everybody, and it's really
his anger is really directed towards Eric, but even he doesn't.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Know that those are all great ideas story beats.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
Yeah, yeah, but it was it got it, Yeah, it
got very active.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
My favorite moment with the Phoenie puppet comes up right
now when Eric sticks his hand in the puppet and
mimics mister Feenie detention, mister Matthews. Eric repeats himself swinging
the puppet around, just as Phoene walks by and Phoene says,
what are you doing with this ridiculous thing? Eric says
it's just a dummy, and Phoene glares at Eric, I'm
not talking to you.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Come on, you thought that was great. It's because it's
a lot of dummy. You would never call it a dummy,
you'd call it a puppet. So why are we saying
this line? It's over from the previous episode. I don't
know what's happening.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
It's I just like seeing Feenie and Eric together. I
just think they're funny and they're But you're right the
word you have.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
A puppet, you can do a beat where like if
Phoene came up and started talking to him and he
started talking back as the Phoenie up in and ignoring, like,
there's so many funnier things that could have happened here
that I was like, Oh, Eric, oh that's that's all
we're gonna.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
Do well, you know what the joke. You know what
the joke is is Phoene has said the same thing
so many times that Eric now has the puppet and
he's saying exactly what Phoene's saying. At the same time.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
He just so he's able to like mouth along with him.

Speaker 4 (23:18):
Yeah, exactly, there's so many better bits. Yeah. Also for
somebody who went on to do voices for a living,
I'm doing a horrible mister impression. It's no not could
you do a better one?

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Now? Good?

Speaker 4 (23:30):
But I have to hear it. Tough.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Bill's tough.

Speaker 4 (23:33):
He's tough because even he made up his own accent exactly.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Yeah, you slip into a British thing very typically you do.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
It's almost winchester esque. It's very It's yeah, he's a
hard one to imitate. I don't know if I can
do it. It was bad. The impression was bad.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
So Phoene asks him, have you heard from more colleges?
Eric says he was turned down by Penn State and
BU and it looks like he'll be going to his
first choice, North Southwestern San Diego State University. Phoene shrugs, ah, yes,
old nswsds U U. Eric tells him he's on the

(24:07):
waiting list. He should get his acceptance any day. Then
it's goodbye, Philamadelphia. Here's a few things that threw me.
When Phoene says, ah, yes old nswsds U, I assumed
he did that because that's not a real college, like
the way he says, oh, yes, the Old. I so

(24:31):
then when I later when there was a letter from
the college or Corey asks specifically, did you hear back
from them, I was like, wait, that was real? He
really was, like it was a little confusing to me.

Speaker 4 (24:42):
It should have been a different school that was actually
real and kind of what they would call a lower
tier school, something that would have been a safety school. Yeah,
that was a real thing instead of going for the
one joke, which.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Right, the old and yeah, it threw me. I was like,
wait a minute. There were a couple of moments here
where I was like, I'm not sure. Yeah, So anyway,
that that bumped me a little bit because right away
the way he responds, I'm like, that's not a real thing.
He's making that up.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
We've already done that with forus, so we figured it right.
The same kind of thing. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
So then Phoene asks if Eric has any summer plans,
and he says, I'm going to travel. I'm spending two
months in two months in my car and I'm going
to see all fifty states. Phoene asks, how do you
intend to drive to Hawaii? Eric tells him I'm going
to drive till they start speaking Chinese. Then hang A Yui,
and I again, because of the fifty states joke, I
also thought he wasn't really going on a road trip

(25:29):
in his car for two months.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
It's they seem to kind of be playing it for
one joke at a time, as opposed to it meaning something.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 1 (25:41):
Well, I just feel like this is clearly setting up
what this episode is, Like, what are Eric's plans? He's
they want you to know he's waitlisted, he's waiting to
hear his final word, and he does have plans that
he's going on a road trip this summer. None of
this bothered me, None of it bumped you, Okay.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
I was always like, Okay, that makes sense. I mean
it's just Eric being the college bother game. Yeah, yeah,
I mean I didn't. I didn't love these scenes, Like
I like, again, I think I could have used to
rewrite and could have been funnier, but but no, it
didn't bump me as like a reality question or like
what's happening? I knew what was happening, Yeah, I just
didn't didn't love it.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
So then we continue in the school.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
But also, like Eric going by himself on a road trip,
really you just can kind of see that, you know, okay,
but then you have no friends at your graduation dinner.
That is the saddest thing I've ever seen.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
So nearby, Corey walks up to Tapanga. This is the
outfit that I'm wearing in my funko pop. It's taken
directly from this scene.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
Interest interesting clothes this week, I sure did, to the
point where I even noticed them.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Yeah, this was it. This was nineties. Let me tell.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
You you know. I bet what happened is you probably
tried on like ten different outfits for Florida, and then
they were like, well, let's say three.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Keys and just keep going, just keep using them. So
didn't we have finals last week? Our finals was two
weeks ago. Why are we still at the school? Why
are we all still here?

Speaker 4 (27:07):
There were some logistical questions I had later too, where
it was.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Like, huh, we had finals and then the next week
we went to Florida and now we're leaving.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
The school at school, I know.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Anyway, I was a little confused by all of the
things that we were that all the plans.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
So, uh, say, Ben is wearing a shirt that I
would wear today. It is really beautiful Denim. I was like, wow,
this is like one of the first times on boy.
I was like, yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
In soup for the last for I don't know why,
and I'd love to talk to Sarah about this, but
for the last three or four weeks, all of a sudden,
we just went with super long clothes. Yeah, all the
clothes have now gotten We went from layers to long.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
Well, I'm tucked in. I decided her tucking in every episode.
Now I'm wearing a white shirt underneath the shirt and
then I'm tucked in with a belt which you playing
basketball later, You've got the shirt. Yeah, that's what you need.
You need to block your you need to block your
arms to make it really hard to move. Obviously, that's
what you wear when you play basketball. When you play

(28:07):
so dumb, Oh my god, buddy.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
So Corey announces here we are, me and you last
day of school. Back together. They kiss, and he repeats
back together, and they kiss again. He laughs and asks,
did I mention we're back together? She smiles and tells
him to refresh your memory, and big shocker, they kiss
again with no woos.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Yeah, no I don't because it's annoying.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Yeah, but it is.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
But I mean, there's always.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
An but this is not a cute scene. I'm like, Okay,
we get it. Guys. Well, I'm glad you make fun
of it later. But man, I was like, don't do
it again.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
It's also worth noting that we are still in the
midst of the Big Bang grow Out of ninety six.
This is not to be, you know, confused with the
less important Big Bang that started the universe. But my
bangs are being grown out, and so they are no
one knows what to do with them there. Some of
them are this way, some of them are this way.

(29:08):
My hair's in a ponytail. It's not working. Later, we
wear a headband to get them pulled back, and that's
a little better.

Speaker 4 (29:14):
But I'm sorry to tell you this, Danielle, but your
bangs are actually only six thousand years old.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Uh okay, Corey says I'm completely secure with our relationship,
and if you want to spend your summer away at camp,
I'm totally okay with it. But we get the sense
that he is not to Peng is thrilled. That is
so mature. Corey adds, because I'm going with you. She
tells him it's an all girls camp, and he retorts,
what times swimming? It's only one summer. We'll have plenty
more together to Pega explains, because she's reasonable and normal,

(29:43):
and Corey groans, I know, but this is the most
important summer of our lives. It's the summer of our
fifteenth year, and if we don't spend it together, we'll
never get it back. Tapega responds, that's really sweet, but
it'll only make our sixteenth summer all the more special.
Corey then pleads, I'll pay you a thousand dollars to
hang out with me. She says, this time is going
to fly, and before you know it, we will be
back together. She kisses Cory huh, and he.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
Also reaches for his pocket like he's got it. Yeah,
it's the thing. Also, by the way, we glossed by it.
But what time swimming is the best joke of the
entire show. Oh really, really, I think because it's just
fast and quick and to the point, and it's it's
an all girls, well what time swimming? That's the that's
the solid that's the most solid jokes.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yep, I think I think something. You know, this episode
is just a lot of exposition. It's a lot of
con so much dialogue, and I think that this is
this scene is now that I'm hearing you recap it,
I'm realizing, like, yeah, I think it's lacking story because
the motivation for the whole story is is Corey being
upset that he's being left alone for the summer. And

(30:49):
I think it could have been stronger maybe if he
had had a plan or hadn't been expected. But like
we're starting off, he knows to Panka is going to
summer school or summer camp. He's not going to see her.
Like it's weird that he's It's just it would have
been better if he like reacts to something like he's
not reacting anything. He's just coming in upset.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
And Salen tries to I think Alan tries to explain
that later by saying, is that really what you think
you're mad at? Because totally they know that he's really
upset that it's actually that Eric's leaving right right, So
it's Alan even says like, you know, he comes in mad,
but it's not about that. It's like he hasn't yet
figured out that tot.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
And I like the idea of like him seeing the
room with you moving out and getting upset about it.
My problem with this episode is that Corey's likability is
just plummeted by the fact that he's already upset and
angry from a moment one. We don't get to see
it like come out of sadness. You know, it gets
to a place where there's sadness and there's connectivity with you.

(31:48):
But it's hard for it was hard for me to
care and to root for.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
Him, for he does minutes. He does come in angry
right off the.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
Back, right, and it's demanding and like I'm gonna pay
you to stay, and it's like, well that's all. Like
I want him to be a little more discombobulated, like
you know, more stressed out Corey, more anxious and nervous
Corey than like angry and upset at everybody and accusatory Corey.
Because and and that it could have easily been fixed
by just having him react like sad at first instead

(32:14):
of immediately being like, don't leave me, don't go, you know,
and then it's like or.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
To reverse it, have to Penga be sad and have
him be kind of as much as I want you,
it's good for you because.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
I'm gonna have my summer with my brother. And then
it's a turn and then I'm like and then I'm
on his side because I'm like, yeah, he did well
with Topanga, and then Eric's let Corey.

Speaker 4 (32:36):
He also lets Topanga know that it's fine to.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
It's fine for him to exactly make him look.

Speaker 4 (32:41):
Normal if he does that kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, that would have been that would have been my choice.
So Topanga walks away, leaving Corey to admit to himself,
well that was a brave front. As he sighs and
sits on the bench while he's moping. The Phoenie Muppet, Muppet,

(33:07):
the Feenie.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Don't get us sued, the muppet, the puppet just so
dirty puppet does sound dirty. It's what happened when you get.

Speaker 4 (33:27):
That's right, man, puppet going.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
It's late night and you're alone.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Just you need to stop right now, Okay, So the
Phoenie puppet pops up behind him, asking, what's the matter,
mister Matthews, you seem a little down, Little George continues,
perhaps some more history homework would cheer you up. Corey
tells Eric to knock it off. He's not a big
fan of his Feenie puppet.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
And I'm like, wow, Eric is being so nice.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
So nice, so awful. The last episode he just built
a whole.

Speaker 4 (34:06):
I know.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
He did so much for Corey. Yeah, he covered for
him the whole time and without question and said, I
do it because I care about you.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
I care about you, and I want you, And he
gave him the advice to go after her.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Yeah, no, no, will you're saying because there was a
period where they were considering spinning your character off, right,
it wasn't here, and it wasn't here. This makes so
much sense. Yeah, I thought they were teeing up that
you were going to leave. And it does make sense.
You were graduating from high school. You could have easily
had your own shows. Eric Like easily it could have
been Eric in college and this is just belonged to Eric.

Speaker 4 (34:39):
And I'll show you where it had. I know the
scene so it's the.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
End of season four, or but it was the end
of a season, it must have been, right.

Speaker 4 (34:46):
I don't even think it's the end of a season.
I think it's like in the middle, because we were
having meetings with ABC and we I mean we probably
got five or six meetings in.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
God, I thought for sure this was it because I
was like, oh, this is a great setup for Will
to go on to a new show that would yeah, okay, wow.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
So Eric reveals himself, come on, core I thought everything
was great now that you into Panger are back together,
big kiss, back together, big kiss, He calls out the
part writer. Just despised, Corey tells Eric to stay out
of his personal life, and Eric says to Pang is
leaving for the summer, and I'm sorry, but that's got
nothing to do with me. I've got one week left here.
Let's make it great, just like old times.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
Wonderful what.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
He puts Corey on the shoulder and walks away, as
Corey wonders aloud, what old times?

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Now?

Speaker 2 (35:32):
I guess the reaction there, yeah, I don't know. That's
where I just wanted it to be more like, I
don't know something about Corey just rubs me the wrong
way the whole.

Speaker 4 (35:41):
Yeah, you well again, I think you hit I think
you hit the nail on the head. Is it just it?
Michael used to always tell us, don't play anger, and
Ben's playing anger, and it just shows that it makes
him less likable. I think. I think if it built
to an angry scene, that's the fun thing.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
That's what's great. Yeah, I think, But if it comes
from a place of being hurt first and like sort
of yeah, like what if he had really been asking
like what old times? Like he's suddenly realizing like, really,
I don't know, did.

Speaker 3 (36:11):
We have good times?

Speaker 2 (36:12):
And then he's like, in the course of the episode
realizing I'm I'm upset that that Eric was never there
for Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (36:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
The problem is that it's like telegraphing right off the bat,
I'm set and I'm angry, and we're a right to be.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
And by the way, I've never once addressed this with
you before. It's all happening right now at A at
A one hundred, and.

Speaker 4 (36:33):
We're an awesome brother a week ago, just one week.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Ago, and that was maybe great, and now I want
more of that. So then wow, that, by the way,
that's just our cold open. That's my god, that is
a big.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Forty minutes in our episode.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
I mean big cold open likely, Yeah, a lot of
set up, lots of information we just had to digest.

Speaker 2 (36:56):
And I wasn't in it either. You're a few times
Sean is not in the hallway with.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
Well, that's because you're in the New Settler the park
and you guys are playing basketball in black leather boots,
black tight denim jeans and tucked in shirts and button ups,
just like NBA players do.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
Yes, you do sports.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
That is how you do the sports.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
How you do sports ball.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Did you see the way I go to block his layup?
I'm sorry, I'm almost extending my arm all the way.
I almost.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Did you know what a layup is?

Speaker 4 (37:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (37:27):
Yeah, you're like, it's when you're it's right before you spike.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
Spike it, spike after you get a hat trick, which
is right.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
Or if you as long as you don't get called
on icing, you're spiking the.

Speaker 4 (37:41):
Peyton manning basketball.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Yes, so the Wayne Gretzky.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
The Wayne break one. So Corey says, okay, fine to
Pega is going to camp as he scores one on
Sean and it's an all girls camp. But there's no
threat there and it's more time for us the boys
of summer. Sean breaks it to him, I'm going to
spend the next two months traveling with my dad. Did
you think it all right? Or like, wow, you've turned
into Chet Hunter? You travel all summer with your family?

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Wait?

Speaker 1 (38:09):
In real life?

Speaker 2 (38:09):
I mean in real life?

Speaker 4 (38:10):
In real life, yes.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
You jet, Yeah, you just but like you don't abandon
your family. You just take him with you. You travel
travel for every summer with him.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Did you think of it in the moment, he said,
I did?

Speaker 4 (38:21):
I was like, well, yeah, that's I remember when you
first pulled up your house in Minneapolis too. You got
out and you were like, where.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
Are we having dinner?

Speaker 4 (38:30):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (38:31):
Wow, it's it's full morph So he asks Sean, I
thought you were staying home this summer, and Sean tells
him I am. That's the beauty of a mobile home.
Wherever you go, you're home.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
But now my mom took the mobile home, so we
don't have a trailer, right.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
Didn't we move?

Speaker 2 (38:52):
Where did we move into when Chet decided to take
me out of turn?

Speaker 4 (38:55):
I think you moved into Uncle Mike's trailer because Mike
was gone.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
Oh, that's right, he got busted or something. So now
we're taking do you.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
Say Uncle Mike's trailer was gone.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
That's right because it last. Yeah, so I guess we
just got a new trailer.

Speaker 4 (39:09):
With the.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
Waiters.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
Yeah, he got times by a new house.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
That's what he did. And now we're driving around them
and you're going around for two months because he can.
Sean asks if Corey is okay, and Corey tries convincing
him he's fine. He tells him I can do without
my best friend and my girlfriend for a couple of months.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Right.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
He sits on a bench next to an older lady
who's feeding real pigeons.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
We had real pigeons, I said the same thing. I'm like,
we had birds on the set. When it just happens.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
What is the sesame street? And next to a sandbox
with real kids?

Speaker 4 (39:40):
And the swing going back just made me want to
swing the whole time. Is like, I let me go
on to swing.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Have you done it in a while?

Speaker 4 (39:45):
It makes remember you to New York. We wanted to
go out. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
You get you get a little in your crystals in
your ear.

Speaker 4 (39:52):
Yeah, okay, there's fluid that has crystals in your ear,
and when you're young, it's more fluid, and the older
you get it starts to congeal, which is why things
like roller coasters and stuff like that make you more nauseous.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
And you can also like have like extreme vertigo, Like
I completely lost it one night out of nowhere, could
not walk. I had such bad vertigo and I laid
down on the couch. And apparently the way to fix
it is you have to have one like kick you up. No,
they have to like like grab you by your arms
and and the whole idea is to like knock the
crystals in your ear back into the place like bazy.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Right.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
Yeah, I'm so glad. I'm so glad I'm young and
they don't have any of this stuff. I'm so glad.
I'm always funny. Uh. And so he sits on next
to a sandbox with real kids and he asks, Sean,
it's not like I can't make new friends, right. The
pigeon lady then shoves a piece of bread into his mouth.
I thought this was a very funny bit. Did you
not see it?

Speaker 4 (40:40):
Right?

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (40:41):
That was okay.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
You weren't watching, or you didn't see it, or I
saw it.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
I just didn't think it was that good of a bit.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
I thought it was cute.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
I was like, Corey, Tony.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
He's a bird, he's a bird lady, and he got
that's that's my favorite Corey. This Corey Corey where he
is trying to convince everyone okay and he's become a
bird lady in one second and somebody's putting bird and
food food in his mouth like that. I like that.
That's that's what I wanted to see more of. Was Tvin.
He was okay, feed the birds, feed the birds, feed

(41:12):
the bird.

Speaker 4 (41:12):
Yes, this was a Jeff Jeff Sherman moment.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Do you want to explain that?

Speaker 4 (41:16):
Well, his parents, his father and uncle, were the Sherman
brothers who wrote all the music for Mary Poppins and everything,
so they wrote. His dad wrote feed the Birds. It
was like his baby that song. So I'm guessing that
had something to do with the feeding the birds.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
That sounds good.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
Do you think they tied? Did you think these pigeons
had clipped wings?

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Yes? No, no, you had to right, Yeah, they're not there.
They were not going to deal with pigeons that were
now trapped in our seventy five foot rafters.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
Yeah, that's true too. Yeah, I could have gotten him
down with grapes and then caught the grapes.

Speaker 1 (41:46):
In my mind, that's true. You could have caught a
pigeon mouth. Throw a pigeon up, catch it in your mouth.

Speaker 4 (41:49):
I'm right down there. I could do it the first time.
I couldn't repeat it, but I could do it the
first time.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
I I just thought that I was really happy that, like,
I was only in a handful of episodes this season,
and then they had left over money at the end
of it, and they were like, let's build a new set.
Let's get real pigeons, Let's get real children, and a
pigeon lady and.

Speaker 4 (42:04):
A pigeon lady, and let's go there.

Speaker 1 (42:07):
So then we're in the Matthew's kitchen. Corey announces to
his family, I've decided I'm spending my summer in Atlanta
selling international flags at the Olympic Village. Alan tells them, no,
you're not, and Corey responds, well, then this summer blows.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
So this is the ninety six Olympics and this is Atlanta.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Interesting, Can I have to Can you guys go with
me for a little bit of a wild ride here?

Speaker 2 (42:27):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (42:27):
Okay, of course, it is worth noting, much like The
Simpsons tells the future all the time, this is quite
a joke for Boy Meets World. It was that summer
in nineteen ninety six that the Olympics would eventually take
place in Atlanta and in the Centennial Olympic Park, where
there would be a bombing that killed one person and

(42:49):
injured one hundred and one hundred and eleven people. And
I'm reminding you, Corey says, this summer blows. What the
heck hold on?

Speaker 2 (43:01):
This an eleven brother, He's an eleven brother.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
This whole event was recently immortalized in the movie Jewel,
about security guard Richard Jewel, who was falsely accused of
planting the bomb. Here's where it gets a little weirder.
This past weekend, Jensen and I ran into the actor
who played Richard Jewel and there are kids played together.
Is this not insane that it all happened within days?

Speaker 2 (43:25):
Nope, not insane.

Speaker 4 (43:26):
Home.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
So we just had a live show in Atlanta International
Event and I look good in Jewel to you cannot
tell me these things.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
You were wearing jewels in your life, and you like jewels.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
I like them.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
I like them.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
Singer Jewel. You like listening to Jewels music is great?
I yes, this is all coming together.

Speaker 4 (43:48):
It were coming around Christmas time, and the man who
actually did the bombing's name was Eric Robert.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
Rudolph Rudolph, Rudolph Rudolph.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Got you guys.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
It is so nice.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
I so glad we're all on the same page. I'm
really thank you. I thought I was crazy. I'm so
glad you guys agree with me. Amy chimes in, This
summer's barely started. Just in case you need to be
reminded that Corey predicted the future. Then Corey interrupts her
and I already got no Topanga, I got no, Sean,
I got nothing. Alan reminds him, your brother's here for
another week. He's about to tell everyone about his upcoming trip,

(44:20):
and this is where I went, Oh, so he really
is driving for two months alone. Corey scoffs, I'm not
really interested in Eric's trip.

Speaker 4 (44:30):
Sure, Dick, No, he's he's he's what is it transference,
he's you know, he's angry.

Speaker 2 (44:37):
No, but I want to see it come from I
do too.

Speaker 4 (44:39):
I want him to earn it and not have been
angry the entire react to something I.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Know Eric has then angry. Oh, you're right, core We'll
put my entire cross country trip on hold so you
can tell us how great the park is. How is
that monkey bar restoration coming? Where does that come from?
What does that mean?

Speaker 4 (44:58):
It should have been? If they are gonna go with
Corey being angry all the time, it should have then
just been Eric being confused about why he was angry. Yeah,
meeting his anger with more anger exactly.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
Well, you say a lot of reasonable things. Between this
and then a bedroom scene, I kept being like, yeah,
Eric's awesome. Eric has been so nice and so great,
and like, what the hell now?

Speaker 4 (45:22):
I get it?

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Yeah, And by the way, I do think looking back
over all the episodes, especially of this season, there have
been a lot of times Eric has been not the nicest,
a bit of a jerk to his brother. I have
no problem with the idea that Corey is suddenly feeling right.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
It just he needs to react to something concrete. He
can't point to anything and say Eric, besides the fact
that Eric's leaving right, Eric is not doing anything anti
Corey like, and it should be Corey should be able
to point to an actual story event, like we had
a plan and you bailed on me.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
Yeah yeah, if that.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
Had been the beginning of the episode, or even to
Benga and him had a plan and she bailed on him.
But like, none of it. It's just all talk. It's
just all my summer was going to be this, and
it's like okay, well that's all abstract and so it's
hard to connect to if it had been a real
story point, like Corey had a plan for the summer,
he was going to do this with Sean, then this
with the Panga and this with Eric and then it
all fell through. But instead it's just we get to

(46:18):
spend all the time, No we don't. Well now I'm pissed.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
And it's like the other thing that they could have
done is he just he's faking it the entire time
until one small thing like the baseball yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
Yeah, or just seeing the rooms. Just seeing the room
could have been emotional, right like yeah, which also emotional.

Speaker 4 (46:33):
Who packs their whole bedroom to go to college, But
we'll get into that. Nobody does that. You bring some clothes,
you bring some you don't bring the stuff on your
walls and stuff like that. You don't pack your hold.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
Everybody keeps their bedroom until they're forty seven years old.

Speaker 5 (46:48):
Not everyone's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
Tried.

Speaker 4 (46:55):
I've tried a hundred times. They will not let my
father will not let me make people pack up their rooms,
especial college.

Speaker 2 (47:02):
Yes, oh my god, look all not everybody yet. Not
everybody has like an extra room that their parents can
just keep open. I don't know, man, Like.

Speaker 4 (47:11):
Yeah, most people don't they go, especially because you're still
nineteen or twenty. You go to college, you decorate your
room how you want it, and you're still coming home
to your house most of the time. You're not moving
your entire bedroom to your college dorm.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
That's just you don't.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
You come back and you've got your little stuff and
occasionally take a trinket here or there. Eric is like
boxes of trophies from when he was like I'm bringing
my Little League trophies with me to college. I know.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
You you go to college, you do kind of want
like a new start, like my grown up room.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
This is your room. Yeah, it's yeah, you got to
get that pulp fiction poster. Yea yeah, there's always like
the same Force Marley poster. It's it's like every college
dorm in the nineties, that's where the big spot.

Speaker 1 (47:57):
Uh, train spotting was a big one. Yeah, y, Corey says, defensively,
it's a jungle gym. Why don't you tell us how
you're gonna see the Grand Canyon in four and a
half minutes? By donkey and I love the way, he says, Bye, donkey, donkey, Dunky,
Bye donkey donkey. Amy tells the boys to stop sniping.
Eric says it'll stop for good when I leave next week.
Corey laughs, there's Eric always leaving. Why should I be surprised? Hey,

(48:21):
core want to shoot some oops? Oh wait, here comes Janis?
Or Hey Core want to ride to school? Oh wait,
my friends want rides. Eric responds while leaving, I'd like
to stay and take some more abuse, but oops, I've
got more packing to do, and we hear the live
audience wins they kind of do it?

Speaker 4 (48:36):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:37):
Morgan tells Corey, I'll be your friend this summer. Corey
grabs her hand and thanks her. Then Morgan realizes, Oops,
I forgot I have day camp. Amy pats Corey on
the shoulder and asks what he's really upset about. Corey admits,
I'm upset that the pang is going to camp. How
could she do that? Amy reminds him she's fifteen years old.
She has a right to go to camp. Corey responds,
you guys never sent me to camp. Alan and Amy
reveal we tried to send you to camp when you

(48:58):
were eight, but we had to take you home every day.
You sent us letters telling us they were conducting medical
experiments on you. Corey says they were they were.

Speaker 4 (49:07):
I love how he starts. How Alan starts, so are
you and yeah? Great?

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Corey met Amy assures him this is going to be
a great summer. Corey asks you really believe that? She nods, yeah,
I do. And then we're in Eric and Corey's room,
a rare appearance in season three.

Speaker 2 (49:26):
I know, and probably maybe the last time we ever seek.
I was, Oh, you're right, Celary's in there. Okay, yeah,
but so so because Eric doesn't move out, you just
come back to this room next season.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
I think, so, I think this room's here. The whole
time I started to get sad.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
I was like, maybe this is the last time we
see it.

Speaker 4 (49:44):
No, it's the last time we see Alex, but it's
not the last time the bedroom.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
Okay, but so what how does that last scene resolve?
I don't understand, like, is Corey feeling better about Eric,
because then he walks into this scene and we just
repeat the fight from the previous scene, like.

Speaker 1 (49:58):
Well, no, he comes in ready to make amends. Corey
comes in and actually he tries to fix things. So
Eric's packing when Corey walks in and tries to lessen
the tension by saying, I know this week hasn't been
the easiest for any of us, but uh, and then
he gets distracted by the state of the room. Look
at this mess. Eric surveys the scene. Yep, many years
to pack away. Corey responds, yeah, but look at my bed.

(50:18):
The bed is made, but it's got a sock on it.
Eric tells him that's actually how you left it this morning.
But when Corey disagrees, Eric responds, fine, I'll move my sock.
Eric fixes the mess. I know your summer's off to
a rough start, Corey, but look at the good I'll
be out of here in a week and you're gonna
have the entire room to yourself. Corey shakes his head.
I've always had this room to myself. Eric asks what's

(50:39):
that supposed to mean? And Corey says, come on, the
way you treat me, and you got to ask. You
ignore me. You never actually did anything with me because
you wanted to and Eric Eric says, what am I
supposed to say to that? Corey? You're three years younger
than me. I have my own friends. Corey asks, and
where will your friends going to be next year? You'll
all be at different colleges, but I'll still be your brother, Eric,
Eric sarcastically responds, you're right, Corey, terrible brother, and he

(51:01):
continues to pack his stuff away. Corey grabs a baseball
from the pile. What are you doing with this? Eric
says he's taking it to college. Corey says, that's my
Mike Schmidt autographed baseball. Eric says he signed it for
both of us, and Corey tries to grab the ball back.
This starts a small little tug of war over the possession.
When Eric comes out victorious, he says, you're absolutely right,
this is your ball. You want it here? Catch, and

(51:21):
then he throws the baseball out the open window.

Speaker 2 (51:27):
Windows open.

Speaker 4 (51:28):
But how close we are tois? I'm surprised we didn't
hear a smash next door exactly.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
That would have been a good beat.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
It would have been funny. Corey lunges at him. I
can't believe you just did that. Eric dodges the attack.
Please don't do that because you're going to get hurt.
And then they start shoving each other back and forth.
Eric slams Corey onto the bed, pushing him so we

(51:53):
can't get up. This is very real filling will How
was it?

Speaker 4 (51:58):
But it's also exactly the same fight as exactly, Hey,
don't you're gonna get hurt. It's all the same. I mean,
like even the dialogue the same, the same. Yeah, and
then it just ends with the weird wrestle tussle, which
is a real brother fight. Brothers don't throw punches, mostly
some do. But it was exactly the same as I

(52:21):
was waiting for Tony and Alex come in and go.
You guys realize you're fighting each other? Right, It was
just it would have been great, But yeah, it was
matchos matchews, matchews. You realize you fight each other?

Speaker 2 (52:34):
Yeah. I think they were a little hooked on that
scene still, Yeah, and they.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Wrote, well, what do you remember about wrestling Ben like that?
Do you remember anything about the choreographing of it?

Speaker 4 (52:43):
Or I didn't even remember that we fought?

Speaker 1 (52:45):
Okay, there you go.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
Nothing, nothing whatsoever. So, yeah, I imagine we had we
had fun. Ben always got into this.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
Just make something, just make it up. I don't remember.
I didn't remember.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
I'm yeah, I've I've been working with Ben. Was always fun,
especially with the physical stuff. So I'm sure we like,
all right, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna do
this and we're gonna grab onto each other. I mean,
I'm sure we had a good time, but I remember
none of this whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
Alan and Amy run into the room and immediately pull
Eric off of Corey. Alan asks, what's the matter with
you too?

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Amy always know that something's going on.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
I was waiting for you can hear the feet on
the floor, yeah, or like you hear like.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
I mean hear you guys aren't being loud, like if
you were screaming.

Speaker 1 (53:23):
They still have a monitor, like a baby monitor in
the room. They anitor.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
Yeah, I don't know. I was kind of like again,
like they had to break up the fight, right because
it was a repeat beat of what happened in the hallway, right,
and so it was like, oh, let'll just have the
parents run in. But it doesn't actually make sense to me.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
No, you're right. There's really no way they would know.
But Amy els, this is our last week altogether, and
it's your last week sharing this room. Eric announces, I
don't have to share it for another week. I don't
really need this anymore. I'm out of here tomorrow. Commerciall
break and then we're in the Matthew's living room. Eric
storms downstairs as Amy and Alan or right behind him.

(54:01):
Alan tells him he is not leaving tomorrow. Eric insists, yes,
I am. Alan sternly explains, maybe you didn't hear me.
You are not leaving tomorrow. You haven't gotten your letter
of acceptance to college yet. Eric tells him, I'm on
the waiting list. I'm not giving this trip up. Amy
tries to calm him down. You're upset about your brother,
and you are not thinking this through. Trying to get
Eric to stay, she says, maybe when you're a parent
and your first child is about to leave home, you

(54:21):
will understand that every day, every minute, makes a difference.

Speaker 2 (54:25):
Okay, I have a random question that might be did
the living room look different to you? Guys?

Speaker 4 (54:30):
No, no, not that I there's something you can you
put your finger on.

Speaker 2 (54:35):
Busier, It felt like there were more stuff on the
walls or in the background, I don't know, just look
different to me. I was like suddenly aware of the
living room in a way that first of all, we
haven't seen the living room in a long time, but
I was looking at it, going, something's different about the.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
Different or change the family picture because it was Lily
and the family picture.

Speaker 2 (54:54):
Maybe I don't know, man, something I want to go
back to the family photo. I don't know. I I
felt like something was different this whole set every time
we went we're in the set this episode, I was like,
what's different? Why does this not feel right? It felt
like a different color or something in the background. Maybe
it's a giant plant. There was something that I was like,
this doesn't feel the same to me. I don't know
what it is. So if ore more, I gotta go

(55:16):
back to yeah more. Astute viewers can our listeners can
can let me know if they've noticed anything. It's something
about the living and felt off to me.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
Interesting.

Speaker 1 (55:25):
Interesting. Eric asks, you don't think I'm freaked out about
leaving going to college, being on my own, doing my
own laundry. I'm having nightmares. White's easy, Dark's easy. What
about my white shirt with black stripes?

Speaker 4 (55:36):
What then?

Speaker 2 (55:36):
I thought you were gonna slip into a Seinfeld A
little bit more then and you're still my own laundry.
I was like, wait, wait, and then.

Speaker 4 (55:44):
That That line and then one other line later are
the only things I remember about this entire episode. But
I distinctly remember that, what about the white shirt with
the black stripes? With things? I think I said that
for years after I was started to do my own laundry,
I feel like a white shirts, like what do I do?

Speaker 1 (55:57):
What do I do with this?

Speaker 4 (55:57):
What do I do? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (55:59):
Alan says this tough on everyone. Eric says that's why
he's just taking off now. Amy reveals they have a
goodbye dinner plan. Eric says if they move the dinner
to tomorrow night, he'll stay one extra day. Alan says
they'll think about it and tells Eric another little bit
of advice. You take that extra day and try to
figure out what is bothering your brother. And again, why
is it Eric's responsibility to try and figure out what's

(56:22):
going on with Corey? I felt like this. The overall
note I have that bums me out about this is
that Corey is making this whole thing about him, and
he's not expressing himself. Well, he's acting angry, and then
it's like on everyone else to figure it out.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
I know. There's a weird thing, Like, you know, there's
a sort of a delusion that everybody has as a
child and as a teenager, which is that you're the
protagonist of your own story, right, that you're like the
star of your own sort of TV show. Except in
the world a Boy meets World, everybody else also acts
like that, do you know what I mean? So Corey's
suffering from that delusion, and yet the whole show also, right,

(57:00):
it's yes, like Sean is always like, well, I'll just
be your best friend no matter what, and t Penga's
like I'll be your girl no matter what, and all
the families like tiptoeing around Corey. It's like, but this
is this is not great behavior, Like this is this
is the precisely the kind of thing that as a
teenager you learn to move away from to recognize. Eric
also has feelings to Panga has her own life, Sean

(57:21):
has it like and that is like I feel like
that's ultimately where the episode kind of lands, right, like
he is acting but in the meantime, everybody's sort of
catering to this delusion in a way that doesn't feel great.
I was kind of like, no, like.

Speaker 4 (57:35):
All fairness, he is the star of his own town.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
That's what I mean, right, you know, no exactly, it's
it's it's a weird it's a weird way of thinking
about it, but it's it's yeah.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
Because normally I would say like, this isn't I love
the parenting on Boy Meets World almost every single episode,
and in this one I wanted to be like, you know,
this is the conversation. Maybe they need to with Corey
about the idea that listen, there's something here and you
need to get to the bottom of what you're feeling,
and it's your responsibility to fix it with your brother

(58:10):
before he goes very rightfully on his next journey for
where he is. But instead they kind of put it
on on Eric.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
For last episode. It's okay that you psychopathically stalked your
girlfriend want to be all the way to Florida or
like the end of the episode was like, well, at
least you got her, you got her back, you got
the girl, Cory, you did a good job. It's like, Nope, dude,
like you are stalking a woman and like that's awful.
That is awful behavior.

Speaker 4 (58:39):
You're also left without telling us, and yes, flew to
Florida on a cargo plane. At She's yeah, problems.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
So Eric tells them, I've shared a room with him
for fifteen years. I have no idea what's bothering him?
And Alan responds, maybe that's your answer. So then we're
at Chubby's, because where else would this goodbye party be?
Of course it's at Chebys. Amy is holding graduate Eric's arm,
saying she's so glad he stayed.

Speaker 2 (59:05):
All the regulars are invited.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
Yep, no one dinner party is really cool.

Speaker 2 (59:11):
There's no dinner, there's no real No.

Speaker 1 (59:13):
There was food, nobody had eaten it, nobody ate it.

Speaker 4 (59:16):
It was burgers, but yet all and the fries are
just sitting out uncovered, and I'm.

Speaker 2 (59:21):
Talking to ketch Up so I'm king soda. But the
first time it was weird.

Speaker 1 (59:26):
You've got a bad drinking class, Like it looks.

Speaker 2 (59:28):
Like I'm drinking a beer.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
It's like, yes, Sean doing you got very perfectly stacked burgers.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
Yeah, no one's touched the food, so we couldn't even
we couldn't even pretend that the party had already happened,
and these were just the people who hung around like
family after we had no food has been eaten. None
of Eric's friends are here, but Corey's girlfriend and Cory's
best friend are here, which we.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Have to give a line to. Even Corey's friends could
come or whatever. Yes, it's like, but then what is
been doing like that?

Speaker 1 (59:57):
I don't know that was holding onto us. I don't
get it. The cameras, I know.

Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
But like this hasn't been quite set. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:00:05):
Yeah, this scene was gave me a little gave me
a little adgitive watching this.

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
I agree this whole thing was. This scene felt very
uncomfortable to me. So Corey's got his arms around to
Panga and Sean. They're swaying back and forth uncomfortably. Amy says,
considering how he feels about Seawan and Tepanga leaving for
the summer, we thought that this would be a good
idea to invite them there. Sean tells Corey, take your
arms off me, man, you're making me nervous. Corey continues
swaying with Topanga until she also maneuvers out of the
way of the odd moment, and then we see mister

(01:00:30):
Feeney who initiated what do you say? Uh huh he says,
am I also making you uncomfortable?

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
Uh huh. Okay, it was weird. It was like run
over or it's not a shorng joke.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
Yeah, I was waiting for like a good response that
could have been a laugh, but instead it's like played.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
For just the discomfort, and it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
Was the whole thing was very Strange's not funny, No, not.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
Funny, not great poene who initiates a toast saying he
has something more to say. We also see Turner and
mister Williams are there. They probably don't say single word.
Morgan Brown's oh no, the Feenie has more to say.
Alan tells her he's going to be your principal one day,
but in reality that's not actually a problem for her
because he followed us into college. Yeh, she's totally saying.

Speaker 4 (01:01:12):
She's fine, She's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:01:13):
And then Phoene gives a nice little speech about being
proud of Eric and ads. I brought a little gift.
I took the liberty to pull this and have it
framed your high school diploma. Everyone cheers except Corey. Eric, thanks, Foene,
I know how much you hate to be touched, but
give me this one. He pulls him in for a
hug and Peoene pats him on the arm, looking uncomfortable, saying,
all right, Eric, all right. Alan runs up to Corey.

Speaker 4 (01:01:33):
Hatey.

Speaker 1 (01:01:33):
Don't you want to say something? Tapanga encourages encourages him.
Come on, he's your brother, you should say something. Corey
tells her. No, I don't have anything planned. Eric announces
this diploma, which signifies my intelligence belongs as much to
you as it does to I. Phoeni corrects him me.
Eric responds, I included you. I included you, Corey Van

(01:01:54):
Yell's attention everybody. He toasts to my brother Eric, who's
moving out, and not just for four years, probably forever.
And I don't even know him. He starts to get
choked up as he continues, and now I probably never
will fifteen years in the same room, Eric, fifteen years.
Corey shakes his brother's hand and says, good.

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
Nothing specific to complain about, and also I just want
him to say that for me, you remember the time
you I had this plan, and like the line in
the kitchen, that is the most potent is when he
says about like oh I got to go hang out
with Janis, which we've seen before, and that makes sense, like, oh,
Eric is too focused on girls. If he could say
in this moment, like do you remember when I was
going to do this with you and you bailed on

(01:02:34):
meat on that date with so and so and what
about the time, But instead he just guilt trip, yes,
just anything. But instead it's like this vague, abstract guilt
trip that it's I'm just like, shut up, Corey, it's
not your dinner, Like, I know, sit down, kid, and
like why is nobody saying that, Like, hey, buddy, this
isn't about you. Shut out, don't have line.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
That's wow, I know, I agree, and I agree to
it stinks because I love the concept of.

Speaker 2 (01:03:01):
The heeling abandoned by the older brother. It's an emotional
connectivity that we should feel. I love it too. It's great,
it's a beautiful sentiment. It just is so like poorly
delivered it again, you're.

Speaker 4 (01:03:13):
Right, though, writer. It starts he's because they started him
at anger and that's where he's paid. So by this
point you're just like, I don't care about it, And then.

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
The reveal is that he stole your your your letter letter.

Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
Yeah, so he's actually ruining your freaking life, and like
no punishment for that, no acknowledgment. No, you're just kind
of like, oh, okay, well least I'll open it now.
And it's like, wait a minute. So Coory not only
is emotionally making everybody scramble and feel bad for him
even though other people are totally fine and doing their life,
he's also going behind your back and stealing your acceptance letter.

Speaker 4 (01:03:47):
No, but it's true. It's it's very Yeah. It was again,
there was no build to it. There was no specific
reasoning for it. There was no I mean, it was
just angry.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
It's seen still felt angry. Even though I think it
was supposed to be choked up. I didn't feel like
it was super choked up. I felt like it was
still like a.

Speaker 4 (01:04:06):
It should have been.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
I'm going into the scene, I'm gonna have a positive attitude,
I'm gonna give a good speech and he starts to
do it and he can't finish it because he starts
starts an overwhelmed and he has to leave. Then I
would be like, oh, poor Corey, he's really sad about
his brother. Yeah, but he said, it's like you suck?
Can you suck? Can you suck?

Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
Okay, dude, I know, Okay, bye bye, No cool story,
bro exactly, I know, I know. So Ory shakes his
brother's hand and says goodbye. I hope you have a
nice life. I really do. Good Okay, oh right, thanks
me too, bro Ham. He looks at everyone else at
the dinner and apologizes to them before walking away. Drama quin, Okay,

(01:04:57):
this next part. I can't wait. We're in the Matthew's kitchen.
Eric was getting ready to leave, tells everyone cars all loaded.
Amy asks, are you sure you can't stay for breakfast?
I could fix you an omelet, toast, pancakes, muffins, pizza.
Eric asked, you just want me to stay get empty?

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
Did you guys notice the exterior for.

Speaker 1 (01:05:15):
This, Oh, the house?

Speaker 2 (01:05:17):
It looked yeah, the house. No, they completely over color
corrected it to make it look like sunrise. So it was.
It was so weird looking.

Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
It was weird.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
It looked like like a post apocalyptic like a movie
where it's like, you know, the sun has been blotted out.
I was like, what is going on? It's all radioactive?
Like yeah, because the colors because like color correction wasn't
that great back then. You couldn't do like power windows
where you could just select the sky. So in order
to make the sky look like a sunset, you have
to like create all change all the colors. So the tree,

(01:05:47):
the house, the grass looks like radio. It's so weird,
looking like one is going on a head to go back.
I'm like, Oh, they wanted it to be sunrise, but
they couldn't do that because they didn't want to get
new footage of us. So yeah, to make the sky pink,
they had to like completely overcolor correct the hole.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
So to writer's point, it's very very early in the
morning after nuclear bomb. After the nuclear bomb has dropped,
she's still in her robe. Amy is still in her robe.
Alan reminds Eric, don't forget to say goodbye to your brother.
Eric admits he hasn't seen him this morning. Alan says
he slept on the couch. He's pretty embarrassed about last night.

(01:06:23):
Eric says, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, and he
walks into the couch room to let him know. And
now we're in the living room. Eric announces, Corey, get up,
your brother's leaving. But Corey isn't on the couch. He's left.
Amy says, he said he was going to the park
to say goodbye to Panga. Maybe he already left. Eric,
clearly sad, says, well, just tell him goodbye and give
him a hug for me. Alan explains, we'll hug him,

(01:06:43):
but I don't think that's gonna make Corey feel any better.
Still worried about how Corey is feeling, even though Corey
left on the day, his morning his brother is leaving,
Eric says, well, I'm just going off to college. I mean,
I'm still his brother. Alan explains, Now it's just going
off to college, then it's gonna be just getting married,
just having kids. But you will never be the same

(01:07:05):
brothers you were upstairs sharing that room.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
That's okay.

Speaker 1 (01:07:08):
Absolutely correctly shares that's not his fault. But he's the
older brother, and Amy adds, yes, but it's not Corey's fault.
He's the younger brother. So it's no one's fault.

Speaker 2 (01:07:23):
Right, So why do we cater to the ones who
are we out and like making everybody's life miserable?

Speaker 1 (01:07:28):
Like wit, just sit down, b go live your freaking life.
Eric emphasizes he's three years younger than me, he's got
his own girlfriend, he's got his own buddiest. I bet
he'd understand me now, and Alan tells him it sounds
like you have a lot more in common now. Eric admits,
I never really looked at it like that. I guess
Cory and I could be friends now. Amy says, his
girlfriend's leaving him for the summer, so you better feel

(01:07:51):
bad for him brother, and his best friend's leaving him
for the summer. And now his brother, who he's never
really had the chance to get to know as a friend,
is leaving forever, and Eric asks, but why aren't you
guys upset, Alan tells him, well, we got to know you.
It's okay, you can leave. Amy, Pat's Eric on the shoulder,
your father and I know you're a good guy and

(01:08:11):
you have a good heart. You've always made us proud,
hass has he though? Has he always made a brack?

Speaker 4 (01:08:19):
Yes, he's made nothing but right decision after right.

Speaker 2 (01:08:23):
This whole scene is just exposition. Here's how I feel,
here's how you feel, how we feel, And just get
to the part where they hug each other goodbye, because
it actually did get me a little bit It's pretty
emotional watching Betsy.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
Starts here up.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
And I do love the idea of, like, you know,
saying having a scene about saying goodbye to your college.
Like this should just be about Eric all this Cory stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):
It should just be like.

Speaker 2 (01:08:44):
Corey's gone, Oh that sucks, he's a bummer. Now let's
just talk about Eric leaving and how sad, Like, I
don't know, let's make that a scene instead of catering
to the you.

Speaker 1 (01:08:54):
Know, absolutely, Alan stutters and pulls out his wallet. He's
not very good at that. He gives Eric a few bucks,
you know, for emergencies. Eric asks what about the gold
cart and Alan immediately responds no, no. Morgan runs down
the stairs. She wants to give him something. She hands
him fluffers, her stuffed teddy bear. He's honored. It's her
favorite thing, Morgan.

Speaker 2 (01:09:13):
He seem a little old to be wearing footy pajamas
and carrying around.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
Why is she wearing footy pajama You can tell that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:20):
There was this like, let's let's infantilize her a little bit.
We just have to make her cute for the scenes.
And it's like, no, Like Lindsay's a good actress. It's
a funny. She's already developed this like.

Speaker 4 (01:09:29):
Supposed to be eight, she says eight in the scene. Okay,
so she.

Speaker 2 (01:09:32):
Looks a little older, and I know I wanted her
to just act a little older like that.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
Why couldn't she just be in regular pajamas?

Speaker 2 (01:09:39):
Yes, And I also think it would have been cuter
if she's actually trying to be older, yes, and handing
him her teddy bear to show that.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
She's what the thing is to say that, she says,
I'm eight. What do I need a teddy bear for?

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
Exactly?

Speaker 1 (01:09:51):
She came into it with the false con with normal pajamas,
pretending to be listen, I'm clearly right, and because for
me and I'd like it to watch over you and
for her to then be having a hard time letting
go of the bear.

Speaker 2 (01:10:07):
Yes, and also the bear looks brand new and that
anybody has had for more than a year or time.

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
It's that I slept with, which was short for bunny.
I got it on the day I was born. I
still have it, and it was It's a little cloth
thing that I wore all the seams out of. It's
now this long and thin and completely unrecognizable because it
is so.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
Love they get dirty, chewed up.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
It's not yes, oh my children and their lovies. We're
all going to die from whatever bacteria is in there.
It's where we are all going to die. So he
Eric asks, are you giving it to me for luck?
And she tells him no, I'm eight years old. What
do I need a stink and bear for? Eric asks
you're gonna miss me Morgan, she responds, I already do.
As they give each other a big hug. This is

(01:10:50):
her first really like non sarcastic, very sweet scene we've
seen from her. So I guess there's nothing left to
say but goodbye. I love you all very much. Amy
starts to cry, and she pulls them in for a hug,
saying they love him too. Alan and Morgan join in
to give him a big group hug, but there's no Corey.

Speaker 5 (01:11:07):
Do you think we knew that we were picked up
for a fourth I was thinking the same thing, because
this might have been the way that they were trying
to end the whole show. No, I think we knew
we were coming back for we must have known. I
think this is the first year we knew we were
coming back, Like, actually knew we were coming back I think.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
Yeah, we must have, because I don't know. You wouldn't
end this season this way. If it was potentially the end,
it would have been a Corey thing. It would have
been absolutely But it is interesting in this episode because
it's about Eric and Corey. It does harken back to
the pilot and the first the first season, in the
sense that he's the younger brother or the middle brother
who's getting overlooked right like, and yeah, I really wish

(01:11:48):
I could. I like that return, I like the return
to that idea, and I wish they.

Speaker 4 (01:11:52):
Didn't return their return. I wish, yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
Alan tells him, go on, you want to beat the
rush hour. Eric is walking out and leaves fluffers at
the door for Morgan. Amy and Alan smile at Eric
as he leaves, while Morgan is hugging Alan so she
doesn't have to watch. Eric shuts the door and Amy
walks over to Alan crying cry. Very emotional little scene.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
They tried to do the Radar thing for Mash It
didn't work. When Radar's character leaves, he has it bear
with him the whole time he's in the war, and
when they he leaves, Hawkeye comes back into the swamp
and the bear is sitting on hawkeyes like like cocked,
and they're all sitting there pouring drinks and they look
down and they just pick it up and they go
buy radar and it's like he came a kid and

(01:12:34):
he left a man. Like it worked perfectly, and this
one it was just kind of like there's a new bear.

Speaker 1 (01:12:38):
He's just leaving right. Well, you also were just handed
the ban.

Speaker 4 (01:12:41):
It wasn't there was nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:12:42):
Is that The Run and Running Cowboy episode of Mash or.

Speaker 4 (01:12:47):
Jane Radar Season eight, Season eight?

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
I think will what wrote the scene?

Speaker 4 (01:12:54):
I would love to have.

Speaker 1 (01:13:06):
So now we're at the park at night.

Speaker 2 (01:13:10):
No sunrise. No, it's a nice it's a nice violet
light going on.

Speaker 4 (01:13:15):
So is it supposed to be I didn't know when
it's night?

Speaker 2 (01:13:19):
No, it's later that morning.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
Later that morning it got darker. It got darker.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
Sunrisey.

Speaker 1 (01:13:25):
It's not sunrisy. He drove halfway to New Jersey, he
says in the scene, and then turned around and came back.
It's nighttime all day and Topanga is getting picked up
by a bus at the park, at the park to
start her camp at night. Hey, everybody, come on into park.
Come on into camp. Welcome, here's your bed mate. Don't

(01:13:46):
drink too much because we can't don't don't have time
to show you where the bathrooms are. Get into your
bed and go to sleep. It's the first night of camp.
It's nighttime. We've been there for twelve hours.

Speaker 2 (01:13:57):
I thought it was still just later on that morning.
I thought it like night or you seway to Jersey
would only take him? Like get darker?

Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
What why would it be getting darker? It's not getting
You saw the blown out house at sunrise, there was
light outside. Why would it still be dark at the pot?

Speaker 2 (01:14:15):
I thought that this was I don't I didn't read
this as nighttime. I didn't read this as dark. I
read this as like morning, magic hour lighting.

Speaker 4 (01:14:24):
Okay, but it's magic hour, not magic day. So if
he's already they had the whole scene and then drove halfway, how.

Speaker 1 (01:14:31):
Long would it take to get from Philly to New Jersey?

Speaker 2 (01:14:34):
Only like an hour or two?

Speaker 4 (01:14:36):
But then again, how is it still twilight?

Speaker 1 (01:14:39):
It's two hours later, it's like dusk for four minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:14:42):
I think I think they got They really liked the
idea of like a sunrise. Look, yes, absolutely, so that's
what they're aiming for and it's just a little too
dark for your taste. Yes, it's sunrise. It's the whole
like early morning. The summer's beginning, and we're going off
onto new adventures and everybody saying goodbye, and you're just
saying it's too dark. It is dark.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
It was nighttime, dark, magic hour morning for How long
is magic hour?

Speaker 2 (01:15:09):
As long as it takes to make it aesthetically pleasing?

Speaker 1 (01:15:13):
Okay, okay, I didn't get it, but it's really weird
to me. Corey and t Bank are sitting on the
swings and Tabanga admits, I don't know if I want
to go to Penga says, usually I'm really looking forward
to camp this time, I'd rather spend the summer with you,
and that scares me. I want you to have a
good time at camp. Okay, I'm completely secure, Corey says,
and then he follows it up with you swear on

(01:15:34):
your life it's an all girls camp. Tapega grabs his hands.
She wants him to have a great time this summer.
Cory ashers or don't you worry about me? He walks
over to the same pigeon lady, once again feeding her friends.
He sits down next to her and opens his mouth
for her to stick bread in it again. Sean then
arrives Corey. I can't leave you like this, man, Corey
asks what he's doing here? Me and my dad are
hitting the road, so I figured i'd say goodbye. A

(01:15:55):
horn honks and Tapega says, that's my bus. Another horn
honks to the tune of luck Kukaracha, and Sean says,
that's my house. Tapega says she should get going and
pulls Corey in for a kiss. I'll miss you, Sean says,
I'll see you in a couple of months. Okay. Corey
nods yeah, take care of yourself, Sean. They give each
other a bro handshake and a hug. Corey is now alone.

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
Sean and Topanga completely ignore each other.

Speaker 1 (01:16:17):
Yes, so.

Speaker 2 (01:16:19):
Great to have like a group hug or like a conversation.
Do I care that I'm not seeing you? Do you
care that you're not.

Speaker 1 (01:16:24):
Sell What I think really is happening is that the
truth is where I'm not going camp. I'm going with
you for the Summer's right.

Speaker 4 (01:16:30):
As you walked off, Sue looked at me and she went, oh,
they're hooking.

Speaker 2 (01:16:32):
Up, so it's like, yeah no by like protagonist of
the show gets all the attention. Everybody else is just
we're just all decorations and.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
Away, trying to make it look like you didn't really
like each other. And around the corner, make an app
make an ass.

Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
So Corey grabs a basketball and pretends to be an announcer
Corey Matthews. He looks for the open man. It's Corey Matthews.
He passes it to Matthews. Matthew sees Matthew set up
for the three. He feeds Matthews. Matthews shoots his shot
that is so terrible and off base, lands in Eric's hands.

Speaker 4 (01:17:12):
Which is a great callback to him doing the same
thing when he was left alone in the house and
was it season one where he's.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought that was.

Speaker 4 (01:17:22):
A great callback to that's a great recognize that that's
like he's alone. Yep, so cute.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
Eric says, looks like your team could use some help.
Corey says, thought you'd be halfway to Jersey by now,
and Eric admits I was. Then I realized here I
am going off to college and didn't even get a
proper goodbye from my brother Corey tells him, I'm you're
here too, because I never got to tell you I'm
sorry for the way I've been acting. Eric shrugs it off.
They're brothers, brothers fight. I go back to why couldn't
it just be light here? Why couldn't there just be

(01:17:48):
some sun.

Speaker 4 (01:17:51):
By the way, it's an hour and thirty two minutes
from Philadelphia to New Jersey, So if he got halfway there,
he's forty five minutes each way. It's an hour and
a half after twilight in the morning.

Speaker 1 (01:17:58):
And that's with zero track thick let's it's it's a
work morning. I don't under I don't know what's going on.
I just why could there not just be some sunlight?
Somebody had to be like, no, I really like this
dark scene.

Speaker 2 (01:18:10):
There's probably Jeff McCracken. He was probably like Jeff, let's.

Speaker 1 (01:18:14):
I'd like to talk to Jack. I have I like
to have a one.

Speaker 4 (01:18:17):
I have a note.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
He was he was coming back from Florida. He was overwhelmed.

Speaker 1 (01:18:21):
Just turn the light, spake it dark?

Speaker 2 (01:18:24):
What we have a swing set this week, dude, Jesus
Christ and you know, you know, Michael was like, it's
gotta look pretty it's morning, and he was like, Jesus okay, fine,
make violet Jesus.

Speaker 1 (01:18:39):
Okay. Uh they're brothers, brothers fight, Eric says. Corey says, yeah,
I don't like it when we fight, you know. And
I also don't like it when I do things like this,
and then he pulls out a letter and hands it
to Eric. It's his letter from North Southwestern San Diego
State University. Says he, I mean truly, he says, he
took it from the mailbox. Yes, I guess I wasn't

(01:19:01):
ready to let you go. I mean, I've always liked
you as a brother, but I'm starting to like you
as a friend. Eric's face changes as he opens the
envelope he didn't get in and the read you do
will is perfect.

Speaker 4 (01:19:15):
Thank you. This is the moment I remember because during
run through, I remember doing it and Alex coming up
to me and going you got me, Oh yeah, I
got me with that, And I remember I'll always remember
that moment because it was like I so respected him
as an actor.

Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
Yeah, man, you were like, I'm never going to see
you again.

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
See you later.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
That It's such a good moment. It's such a good moment.
Jensen gasped. He was like not he it totally got him.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
He was like, it's so you know, Eric has just
always been the goof off, like the funny guy to
see you drop any pretense.

Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
It's such a bod And the fact that we didn't
play into any sort of Oh the joys of Hollywood magic.
He worked hard for a few months and it saved.
He's gonna make it. It's really like, yeah, no, it
still didn't work.

Speaker 4 (01:20:05):
Yeah, you were a crappy tea.

Speaker 1 (01:20:07):
It's so good.

Speaker 2 (01:20:10):
It is a little intense that there's like no alternative
to college. I think, like there is no alternative to
which I mean, I guess did it really feel that
way in the nineties or is it just specific to
the boy Meates world works. I feel like a lot
of parents I know now are like, I'm cool with
my parents. My kid's not going to college, like a
lot of people exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:20:31):
A lot of trade, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:20:32):
The idea of like that you have to go to
college in order to be a functioning member of society
has really just not aged well. But I also don't
think it was that important back then either.

Speaker 4 (01:20:43):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:20:43):
Well, here's the thing. It had a lot to do
with like. My mom is a first generation American. Her
parents came here from Malta and they looked down on trades.
My my my mom would have been a makeup artist
from the time she was immediately out of high school.
She knew all along she that, but her parents were
both like, no, we came here to America so that

(01:21:04):
you could do something better than that. Yeah, And my
mom was just like, Okay, then I guess I'll be
a stay at home mom because she didn't want to be.
She didn't want to go to college. She was she
didn't love school, and so she then, you know, my
parents got married at twenty one and she had me
at twenty three, and she didn't become a makeup artist
until she was in her fifties.

Speaker 2 (01:21:24):
So there there was an amazing mom.

Speaker 4 (01:21:28):
She was.

Speaker 2 (01:21:28):
She was the world's.

Speaker 1 (01:21:30):
Best, the world's best. I'm not saying that that's that
that's a bad choice or that she wasn't great at it.
She obviously was. And it worked for our family because
my dad, you know, was definitely like the type to
go out and work a lot, and my mom was
able to be home and provided the life that I've
been able to have because she was able to take
me back and forth and do all those things. But
my mom's my mom's dream like she's like, I know

(01:21:52):
for she knows for a fact the only reason she
didn't pursue it earlier was because in her family it
was looked down upon.

Speaker 4 (01:21:57):
So it's also the first thing that they're out of
high schools now is metal shop. Yeah, and you know,
wood shop and all that kind of stuff where it's like,
go learn to learn a skill. My god, I know,
make a fortune being a plumber, electrician. You know how
much money those people make.

Speaker 1 (01:22:11):
It's insane.

Speaker 3 (01:22:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:22:12):
Yeah, so Corey, you know, Eric didn't get in, and
Eric explains it was my mistake thinking I could slack
off for three and a half years, work hard for
two months and get in. Man, I really wanted to
go to college. And like I am for this whole episode,
my heart's just breaking for Eric because, yeah, Corey jumps in,
you will take a couple of cut courses over the summer.

(01:22:33):
I bet you'll get into an even better school. Maybe
you're right. Eric agrees, maybe I can find a school
a little closer to home. Corey responds, I know where
there's an open bed. Think about it while you're gone
across the country. Eric tells him, Nah, that trip was
to celebrate. There's nothing to celebrate. Cory asks, you kidding
a trip like that, that's something you'll never forget. Eric
tells Corey he's right, maybe there is something to celebrate.
I am going to take that trip first thing in

(01:22:55):
the morning. Cory asks, why wait? Eric laughs and says, I, okay,
So here is another point that maybe it's night. First
thing in the morning. I gotta go home for you
to pack. They could leave tonight if he had all
day to go home and pack. Anyway, moving on.

Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
He's got to pack up his whole hill.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
Want to die on this hill?

Speaker 1 (01:23:14):
This is the I do. I think it's okay to die.

Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
It is ridiculous lighting okay.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
Cory asques why wait? Eric says, like, okay, I gotta
two months on the road. Can't think of anybody else
I'd rather share the car with.

Speaker 2 (01:23:26):
Why Why what changes? I'm kind of I'm starting to
like you as a friend, and I wanted to know why? What? What? What?

Speaker 4 (01:23:36):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
Why? Where is the specific concrete example of how these
two have connected, or had expectations to spend a summer together.
It got ruined in the course of this episode, and
now do they why do they come back together? It's
just decisions made for abstract conceptions.

Speaker 1 (01:23:50):
I do think there's a little bit of missed opportunity,
not like this new thing I'm learning about you makes
me like you more, although that's what's written, but I should.

Speaker 2 (01:23:59):
Stole list except or in my rejection letter. Yeh, you
manipulated me emotionally, you guilt tripped me, you made a
horrible speech in my thing, and I've come all this
way back to say, uh, I'm going away and goodbye.
But now I'm going to invite you to come with me.
Because they're such.

Speaker 1 (01:24:14):
A earlier in the scene with Alan and Amy, he
specifically says, oh, we have more in common. Now, I
guess I've never thought about that, So I guess it's
more about missed opportunity, Like, here's an opportunity that's presenting itself,
which is a good opportunity for us to actually get
to know each other, to see if we like each

(01:24:34):
other as opposed to I wish they did not set
it up that I already like you. I'd like to
spend two months with you more about why don't we
use this summer getting to know each other.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
Right, let's stats go on this advance.

Speaker 1 (01:24:45):
Let's go on this adventure together that we have the chance,
and let's see, I don't really know you as as
a as a more adult, mature person with your own life.
Let's let's do with this together. That would have been
kind of fun. And then I have no idea what
happens in the next episodes, but I would have loved
it if then they're just at each other's through. I
don't like you. I figured it out. Corey says, this

(01:25:07):
is going to be a summer they'll never forget. Eric
tells him things always seem to work out for the best.
Corey responds, I've always believed that, and we end with
a freeze frame of Eric patting Corey on the shoulder.

Speaker 2 (01:25:18):
Yeah, freeze frame free Does he always believe that?

Speaker 1 (01:25:21):
Or was that Amy's believe? Has Corey really believed everything
was going to work out?

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:25:27):
No, he's been a whiny protagonists talking about the anagonist,
a winetagonist, just constantly complaining about all the other characters
not catering to his needs, and he was very so
the last two episodes.

Speaker 4 (01:25:43):
Corey's been very unlikable. To me, Yeah, they kind of
ended this whole season. They really ended with a whim. Well,
really the last two, I mean really the last two
back to back. It didn't end great.

Speaker 1 (01:25:55):
Season three, well, then we're in the tag. We're in
the Matthew's kitchen. Eric announces to everyone. On day two,
we see Virginia and Washington d C. Phoeney tells them,
don't forget to give yourselves at least a day in Boston.
Corey agrees, the cheers bar maybe they'll know my name.
Phoene responds, I was thinking more along the lines of
Bunker Hill, Old North Church. Eric looks at Corey. Remember
we're on a strict budget. Amy nudges Alan. He pulls

(01:26:16):
out his wallet and tells the boys see Washington. As
he hands them some more money. Morgan gives them a
thumbs up and says, you guys are good together. Okay,
that's all we need. The Rhodes calling, Corey and Eric
say their goodbyes to the family and to mister Feeney.
Alan reminds them part of the deal of the strip
is that you check out some colleges along the way,
and Eric scoffs, that's the whole reason. We're going to
lane Ball State, Memphis State.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
State, State State. So good at the door State.

Speaker 1 (01:26:44):
Now outside, Corey tells Eric, what makes you think I
would want to spend my summer, the summer of my
fifteenth year, seeing a bunch of colleges. Already, Corey's making
this trip about him, this summer of his fifteenth year, this.

Speaker 2 (01:26:57):
Summer of my fifteenth year. Not that you are going
to ruin my summer. I am the protagonist of the show.
To my needs, and what are my needs? Girls and bikinis.

Speaker 1 (01:27:09):
Let's go making a huge deal out of going to
an all girls school.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
Now I'm gonna go check out ladies at the beaches.

Speaker 1 (01:27:16):
Yep, so great, Eric says, because we're seeing them on
our way to hear and Ane's Corey a piece of
paper that says Myrtle Beach, South Beach, Fort Lauderdale, South
Padre Island, and Malibu. Eric ads Smith Sony and they
both yell, and they both laugh and yell yeah right
as they grab their duffel bags and head out to
see the bikini chicks, while Corey gilts Topanga for being
at an all girls camp. And we close it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:41):
It really ends with yes, yeah, yeah.
