Halloween may be in the rear view, but we’re not ready to give up on the spookiest time of the year. The gang is returning to the TGIF-verse for a rare TV sitcom sequel in the form of Family Matters, Stevil 2: This Time He’s Not Alone!
How does this second installment hold up to the original? Does it excel with the same fun campy humor or is it bogged down by dummies?
Danielle, Will & Rider celebrate the absurd, but exciting puppet fight, but have some questions about Carl almost being possessed by a…dresser.
And we witness the appearance of an iconic 90s sitcom robe, on another Urkel-sized edition of Pod Meets World!

Speaker 3 (02:04):
It was her. It was her.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Here's the funny thing. Here's how I know for sure
it was her. He goes, the doctor is the doctor
here went to high school with you? But she says, you.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Won't remember her.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And I said, well, now I do because I just
wander a dry bar. But I didn't remember her from
thirty years ago.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
But she didn't mention the dry bar running. No, you didn't.
You make an appointment with her, find out whatever type
of doctor she is, if she's a rhinoplastic.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Whatever it is you are, doctor are doctors.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
You gotta just show up and then then introduce yourself
and say we were high school together. You probably don't
remember me.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I told him. I was like, please tell her. I said, hello,
we just ran into each other. I don't want her
thinking I don't know who she is now. And I said, also,
I want her to take good care of you. I
don't want her to like, yeah, I just I.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Just had this similar thing. But that made me feel
far more old. Where I was, you know, in the hospital,
and a nurse came up to me, and a nurse said,
you went to high school with my mom.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So I was like, we have to you were in
the hospital. You were in the hospital for a family member,
not for family.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
It wasn't me, and everything's good, by the way, but
we were there as a routine thing. But we were there.
And she came up and she said, oh, yeah, I
think you went to high school with my mom. And
I said what, and so.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Dude, you're grandpa in myself not that crazy in my mind.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I'm still only forty.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Eight, I know.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
So yeah. She's just so strange though, And then she
did she texted her mom and said, oh, he's here,
and then her mom wrote back, I think I remember him.
Was he friends with somebody else? And I was like,
the fact that you were on Boy Meets World? No, No,
it wasn't that, and she's like, oh, yeah, I think
I remember. So again, I got four seed by someone
(03:52):
I went to high school with. Forgot, Danielle. You probably
won't remember me, but we did Boy Meets World together, so.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Go o my gosh. I know. It's it is still
shocking to me the amount of people who will come
up and ask for a picture or something, and then
I take the picture and I'm like, bye, it was
so nice to meet you, and they're like thanks, my
mom's gonna love.
Speaker 3 (04:12):

my face, the silhouettes old the silhouette, it's just that like,

spooky excursion we still had to make, returning to the
universe of TGIF and diving into a rare TV episode sequel.
We are back at Family Matters for Stevel two. This
time He's not alone. Guys. Was Stevel won the best
(06:21):
Halloween episode we have seen thus far? I think it was, Yes,
were the most full.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
It was better than Fresh Prince and it was really yeah,
I think because remember Fresh Prince just ended like the
whole story just stopped. Yeah, where Stepel was like, it
didn't take itself seriously, but it was a little spooky
and it had the puppet was really cool, and then
they showed the making of at the end. Like I thought,
all around, it was a pretty solid Halloween episode.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, I guess, so.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
What do you think of? And then there was was
Sean Part two would.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Have looked like, oh, it would have been great. Yeah,
it would have been let's see what was Scream part two?
Like what would have been the next evolution? Because it's like.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Would you have done Scream or would you have picked
a whole different horror.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Type of genre. Yeah, Like we're.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
At like maybe everybody goes to camp and it's like
a Jason, No, we all go to we all go
to ski lodge.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
We all got to go to got to go to
a haunted cabin.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Yeah, in the mountains. It's a Phoene's cabin. Yeah, and
a great idea. Phoene's cabin.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yep, that's it. And we do at idea we do
like some.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
BB episode, but but horror, Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
A moose can't be a killer a moss.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So Stevel two was season nine, episode seven of Family
Matters final season and a year after the original Stevel
So it must have been a hit. The follow up
aired on Halloween Night nineteen ninety seven, And if you
want to check out Stevel two you can right now.
It's streaming on Hulu, so you can know about everything
related to a possessed Rkle and reginaldville Johnson doll Okay,
(07:59):
What are your early thoughts on this sequel episode.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I mean, I don't know, you don't really don't. This
was terrible. It was good.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It was am because I like the idea of like
going back and like having another ROMP and like, I guess,
going in, especially since they're set up with by the
first one so well, it was like anything goes and
they kept it very small and like it's really just
the two actors the entire time.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Like, yeah, nobody else everyone had finals.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, I think, I think, I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I like the idea of there being two dolls, and
I like the idea of Carl having his doll. I
thought that was funny and it looked funny, but then
they just didn't do any in like the Vegas joke,
like the whole like Hollywood entertainment thing. When it went
on for like five minutes of them dancing, I was like, oh, really,
this is just dancing.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
And it was also so much set up just get
into it. How many scenes were there going to be
about Steve? This was a dream, This was a dream.
You don't you got a sleep? You got to I mean,
they were like it felt like half the episode before
it was like Okay, come on, yeah, get into.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
It also seemed like it was the same director, but
the voice seemed different, even though.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I totally thought the voice was different.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Right, well, I thought it was a different guy, but
it's not. It's the same guy. And then Reginald vel
Johnson doesn't even take off his shoes when he takes
a nap. It's the first time, that's true.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It was the exact same thing. He laid down on
the bed basically like this, with his full shoes on
and his whole outfit. It's you know, because then they
got to get up. Then they got to get up
and run, and they can't have to stop and put
their shoes on.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
So what would you have done for Stevel too? How
would you have added to the the Stevel storyline?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
I would have gone with what they did essentially in
I wouldn't have made it reginaldvel Johnson. I would have
made it the girl he's in love with. And I
would have done because Chucky doesn't Chucky get a bride.
It's like Bride of Chucky. I would have gone Bride
of Chucky with it, and it would have been Laura
that would have done it, and it would have been
the two a boy puppet and a girl puppet running
around doing stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It would have been fun to just take the stevil
idea and bring it to other characters, which they kind
of did with Carl, but they should have probably had
Steve not in this one at all. Yeah, and like
the Stevel and Lisz other family members and gets other
dolls and then at the end Erkele comes back. But yeah,
as it was, it was just kind of like, oh,
we're just doing this again.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah. Eventually the synopsis Erkele's evil ventriloquist dummy Stevel is
back with a vengeance, and this time he's not alone.
His sidekick, Carl's Bad has arrived to help steal Erkele
and Carl's souls. It was directed again by Rich Correll.
He is a sitcom vet who directed the very first
Stevel episode and it was written by a new name,
(10:37):
Jim Gogan. Jim was a big sitcom writer, starting his
career on shows like Facts of Life, Silver Spoons, and
Mama's Family. He'd end up creating the Sweet Life of
Zach and Cody, which is a fun career trajectory. This
is one of thirty two Family Matters episodes that he wrote,
we went over the stars in our first recap, but
here's a quick reminder. Reginald Bell Johnson is Carl Winslow.
(10:58):
Joe Marie Payton plays Harriet Winslow, Darius McCrary as Eddie Winslow,
Kelly Sheen Williams is Laura Winslow. Brighton James is Richie Crawford,
and the great Julia White as Steve Urkele. Guest starring
this week, Orlando Brown returns as three J. Director Rich
Carrell again supplies Stevel with his voice. Josh Ryan Evans
is also back as Stevel. Evans, who was just thirty
(11:20):
seven inches tall, was best known as Timmy Lennox on
the soap opera Passions and as Baby Grinch in The
Jim Carrey Grinch That Stole Christmas. He passed back in
two thousand and two at the young age of twenty,
but now we have Ed Gail as Carlsbad. Ed was
a little person legend in Hollywood. He appeared in over
one hundred and thirty movies and TV shows. Most famously,
(11:42):
he was Howard the Duck in Howard the Duck and
Chucky in Child's Play, which is the character this entire
Family Matters premises based on Gail, passed away this past
May at the age of sixty one.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, Howard the duck. They also put a little kid
in the outfit and it was like hot and he
was like eight and they just tortured this little kid
in the set. Yeah it was bad.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah. Wow. Jumping into our recap, we start in the
cold open. We are back in the Winslow's house and
if this feels familiar, it's because this is the same
warning they used for the first st Evil.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I get waiting for them to add to it. I
was like, no, it's gonna be and then they're like,
turn the lights on. I was like, that's my name.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I also thought I was watching the wrong episode, but
the kids do look older, but I was like, wait,
am I watching stevel One. So if you've forgotten, Erkele
WARN's viewers that this Halloween episode might be scary, so
to watch it with someone brave. Richie and three J
luckily beside him on the couch promise they have his back,
but Erkle still wants to turn on the lights. Now
we're in the Winslow's Halloween decorated living room. Despite his
(12:45):
best efforts to stay awake. Urkle is falling fast asleep
on the couch. He quickly catches himself snoring and decides
the best way to keep himself awake is to impressively
dribble a basketball. Then Laura, in a robe, makes her
way downstairs and kindly announces she has a message for
Erkle from her dad. Erkle is interested to hear. She
aggressively shouts stop that. By the way, this robe that
(13:06):
Laura is wearing was a very popular nineties Yeah, this robe.
I think Tipega had this robe. I think it was
also on Friends.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
It's a friend's robe too.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yep, it's it was on every sitcom in the nineties
someone had this robe. So what is he up? What
is he doing up at three am? Anyways, he reminds
her it's three hours into Halloween night. He's not sleeping
tonight or tomorrow night. In fact, he may not even
sleep until Thanksgiving. She wonders if he's still afraid of
that nightmare from last year about his ventriloquist dummy. Erkele
(13:41):
insists Stevel was no ordinary dummy. He was a diabolic,
satanic evil force born in the heart of darkness. He
also never gave me my phone messages. Laura doesn't understand. M.
Laura doesn't understand how he's still afraid. Isn't the dummy gone?
Erkle admits he is gone. He chopped him up into
a million pieces, grounded him in a blender, then flushed
(14:02):
his sawdust down the toilet. So Laura lists three reasons
he shouldn't be afraid. One Stevel's not real, Two he
flushed him down the toilet, and three he's not real
Erkele shrugs her off. A man's got to do what
a man's got to do. She tells him he better
do it without dribbling, and heads back upstairs with the ball.
Now alone again, Erkle decides he should watch some TV
(14:22):
to keep him awake. He clicks to turn on the
TV and decides to check out what's on ABC.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Network.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Just no, it's worse than that. The last season of
Family Matters was on CBS to CBS, so he was
actually insulting. They were insulting the old network that let
them go.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It is running.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
You get a joke about the yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
So that was actually he was. He was the old network.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Yes, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
So he's like, let's see what's on ABC? And he's
back a sleeves. Now we enter Erkle's dream sequence. In
the bathroom, we once again have thunder and lightning storm
lights up a very dark scene. The camera zooms in
on the toilet. The seat flies open, revealing a wooden hand,
eventually an intact but what Stevel pops his head out
and creepily announces, I'm back.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Do you guys ever? Do you remember the movie Gholies?
Of course I never saw it, but it was always
the cover of the movie at the VHS store was
a hand coming out of the No, it was a
little green guy coming it was a whole.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
That's right, he's like pushing up the thing, pushing up
the right. I know, he's just like is.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Remember because it was like a rip off Gremlins. It
was like right around the same time as Gremlins. So
somebody made Ghoulies and I always wanted to rent it.
My parents would never let me. Like a ghoule, Yeah,
like a little but the cover was just legendary. It
was like a green little monster coming out of the toilet,
and I just it's indelible. And the second he said,
you know, I ground him up and threw him down
(15:53):
the toilet. I was like, Oh, there's gonna be the shot.
There's gonna be a shot of him coming out of
the toilet right away. Oh yeah, they could have cut
to it right away, by the way, about too much
set up like that should have been it like ground
him up and cut it a boom, cut to lightning strikes.
It comes out of the toilet. We know what happened.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Also, Danielle, if you can avoid in the future saying
a wet stevel comes out of the toilet, I really appreciate.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
No, I'm going to say a wet stevel comes out
of the toilet every episode. Now and then we're back
in the living room. Arcle is now eating lots of crackers,
paired with a giant tubo cheese, still in his pajamas.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Visual guys, we got a bucket of brittle later.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Did they did?
Speaker 3 (16:31):
They?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Really?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Did?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
They do it specifically because they wanted everyone to know
we're now in the dream sequence.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I guess I think that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I think they literally it was probably like on set
they're like, oh, he's eating crackers and cheese, and I
don't know, They're like.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
We find at joke whose dream it is.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It's it's Steve now and then he wakes up and
then there's another thing.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Yeah right, but so is Stevel. Then only in carl dream.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
No, stevel'sn't And this is dream, this is Streamestrea, this
is Erkele's dream's two separate dreams. And then I was
waiting for the end to be like, oh and it's
all a dream and somebody else, but it didn't do
it didn't go that far. No, it's just literally Steve
has a dream and Carl has a.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Dream, and then they're real also, but are they wait,
so then they're really.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Carl wakes up from his dream and comes downstairs and says,
you have to tell me about oh no, and then.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
They just talk about their dreams and they walk upstairs
and that's it. Yeah, okay, what are you.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Doing, Steve.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
After some more thunder and lightning, the lights start to flicker,
and eventually they go out completely, leaving the screen one
hundred pitch black. Then, after a few seconds, they turn
back on and Erkele finds himself face to face with Stevel.
Erkele shrieks and terror as Stevel lets out another evil laugh.
Erkele backs away. He can't believe it. It's you, it's you.
Stevel responds, it sure is, bone butt.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You just made yourself laugh just by saying that I.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Love it, and I love bone butt. Just start calling
my kid's bone butt. Thanks for flushing me down the toilet.
Pal I spent the last year hanging out in sewers,
bobbing for rats. Erkele asks him what he wants, and
stevil grins, Oh, not much, just your soul. The puppet
hops down from the couch and slowly approaches Erkele, who
pleads with them, why don't you take the guy's next door.
(18:27):
He's a lawyer, he's never used his classic lawyer jokes.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Lawyer it's yeah, it's there.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Used to be so many of them.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Lawyer jokes, mother in law jokes. Those are like the
go tos.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Yeah. Erkele stumbles into the armchair. As Stevell gets closer,
he tells Erkele he won't settle for any soul he
wants his. Erkele shrieks as Steve hops onto him and declares,
hold still, this is gonna hurt like the Dickens. The
evil puppet proceeds to shoot green laser beams into Erkele's
eyes as he screams in pain. But then the dream
sequence starts to fade. We're into a different scene. Still
(19:12):
in the Winslow's living room, Erkele is sleeping on the couch,
tossing and turning in agony. He finally wakes himself up
and scans the room in fear. He realizes he fell
asleep and Stevell managed to come back. How did this happen?
Then we go to a tense commercial break as Erkle
checks behind a small pillow. We return in the Winslow house.
The title graphics Stevil two. This time He's not alone,
(19:33):
appears just as Erkele is handing out carmel covered squid pray,
lean prunes, and three bean taffy to Tricker treaders. They
are less than enthused and he can't understand why. He
asks for a thank you, and he's met with a
barrage of candy thrown at him. Eddie and Laura walk
downstairs wearing some impressive Halloween costumes. Eddie is dressed as
Don King and Laura is wearing an elaborate alien costume.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
So he tries to guess Halloween sitcom things he always
gott to have like the presentation funny outfits. And it's
also it's.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Like you walk downstairs and it's such a sitcumting thing too.
You walk downstairs with the giant alien head on and
then you have to take it off to show who
you are and say you're lines, and then you have
to put it.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Back on it.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yeah, can I writer? I think you said you you
watched the Chucky movies? Have you seen them?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I've seen the first one. I don't think I've seen
anything past that.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Does anyone just kick the puppet away from them? Yes?
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I think I think it's actually a key scene in
the first one, like, yeah, there's a bit where god,
I think she kicks it at one point you think
the thing is gone and then like she it comes
out from under the I don't know. Yes, yes, they
try to make it.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
It's just slowly approaching.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Steve.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
It's like, just kick the puppet, I know, just kick
the puppet, Like.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
How hard is that?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's what I said the first time. It's like when
you can just take the puppet apart, right, like I
I'm not scared. Really the puppet should come in and
psychologically torture them, right, Like that's what that's what a
ventriloquist could do, is like insult them and and tear
down their sense of well being, and.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
He's just doing crowd works. That's where we end up.
So it was pretty much pretty much Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
So Eddie is dressed as Don King and Laura is
wearing an elaborate alien costume. Ercle tries to guess Don
King and missus King. Eddie responds with his best Don
King impression. Arkle's half right. He's going to his fraternity
dressed as Don on que. Two pretty girls dressed in
sports bras and boxing shorts walk in and ask miss
mister King if he's ready. Well, girls are dressed in
(21:37):
scatter like they're at club. Yeah, Eddie happily takes a
girl on.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
This happen anymore? Does anybody like, do women walk onto
a stage in a city.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Anymore?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
But if there, does this happen on? This is a
regular thing.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Eddie happily takes a girl on each arm and continues
his Don King impression out the door, Only in America,
Only in America. Laura asks if he got any sleep
last night, and Erkle tells her all about the stevil
guest appearance and his nightmare. It was five of the
most terrifying minutes of his life, second only to watching
Lord of the Dance. Erkle gives a cute little imitation
of Michael Flatley. Laura reminds him it was only a dream,
(22:20):
but Erkle's adamant. I'm not dreaming anymore. I had eight
cups of espresso, a six pack of Jolt Cola, and
a giant bowl of fruit loops with extra sugar. If
you remember Jolt I remember I never drank it.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I never tasted it.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Yeah, it tastes as if somebody melted down lipstick and
then just filled the rest with nerd sweat. It's like,
it's what it's like, the chemicallyst nastiest. It is just disgusting.
It was like five times the caffeine or something ridiculous
(22:53):
like Kenya.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Can you buy it still?
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I have no idea. I have no I can't imagine
Arcia Cola.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Is still around. I think I can get that somewhere.
I remember that taste that yeahs comminated.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
I guess, OK, unless it's caffeine free. For the records,
I can I can buy Jolt cola. It appears, and
I'm wondering if I get it for you guys, would
you drink it for a pre show chatter? Yes, yes, yes,
I'll take a sip, but I don't do caffeine, so
five times the.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Caffeine will take a sip too.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
But let's get let's get jolt and arc will do
a taste test.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Okay, all right, I.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
In I'll just call that a panic attack Tuesday, not
just wipe your schedule.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
For the rest of the day.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
If your schedule planned to sit on the toilet.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
There will definitely be a wet stevel coming out of
the toilet that day, so let's be honest.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Then Richie and three J comes strolling in dressed as
the men in Black. Arkle realizes that's why Laura's the alien.
Oh my gosh. Richie and three J reveal that after
people give them can in ei, they're going to erase
their memories. That way we can go back for more.
They hold up their memory erasing devices and Arkle pretends
to fall into a trance. He asks the boys who
(24:09):
are you? And he loves his own joke. Laura says
it's time to go, and they walk out. At the
same time. Karl arrives wearing his police uniform. So I
have a question, what do we think? Why did the
scene need to happen? Why did any of this need
to happen so.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
We could see the other cast members in the episode?
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, there are so many others that aren't in the episode. Yeah,
so why do they only need these characters in the episode?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Stupid question for season nine because I didn't watch the show.
Are did all the characters make the jump from ABC
to CBS? Are all the characters still on the show?
I mean I miss the character there and the grandma
character they're still there? Are they all still there?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
I mean I read all their names, so you know
when I said I went over the this that we
went over their names in the first Reginald Bell Johnson,
Joe Marie Payton, Darius McCrary, Kelly Brighton. I guess the
only one then who's maybe not in the episode is
Joe Marie Payton, right, because Darius we just saw Kelly, right,
and then let's see that's guest starring Orlando. Yeah, the
(25:12):
grandmother is not in this episode.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
People and costume, they have the fun the kids in costume.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I'm just wondering, you know, if the show is the
same having moved to CBS. If it's all the same cast,
like everybody made the jump, or maybe some people didn't.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Interesting. Laura says it's time to go, and they walk
out at the same time. Carl arrives wearing his police uniform.
Erkele says, Carl looks a little peaked. Tough day at
the office. Carl blames it on eating too much candy
at the precinct Halloween party. He's going to take a
quick nap before dinner, but Erkele won't allow it. Jumping
jahouse a fat, it's Halloween.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Why if you can't do upstairs to say that he's
going upstairs to take a nap, but he's coming down
in his cop uniform.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
He's not coming downstairs. He came from the kitchen. That's
the kitchen over there. He's like coming from the swing door.
He enters from the kitchen. So he just got home.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
So he got home from work.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Okay, he just got home from work and he's coming
into the living room.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Gotcha, okay, so Urkle.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Says, Jumping j Hoosa fat, it's Halloween. You can't sleep.
He's the one with the dream. Why does he think
other people are going.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
To have are they may be doing, like trying to
do like a nightmare in Elm Street thing where it's
like whoever falls asleep can.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Get He doesn't think it is a dream. Urkele's convinced
it's a real character.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
So why well didn't he already fall asleep and wake back?
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And I guess in that case he thought and he said, oh,
I fell asleep and he came back.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
So this is not a dream happening right now.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
No, he already woke up and has been dealing with
Candy and he's drank the jolt, so he's going to
stay awake. So I don't know why he wouldn't just
be like I mean, maybe he's just afraid to be alone,
Like he doesn't want Carl to go to sleep.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I would, I would understand that, But that's not what
he says. You can't sleep you could have.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Does.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Carl quickly realizes and is disappointed to see this is
about last year's stevel nightmare. Rkele isn't embarrassed at all.
In fact, this time he's after his soul. Carl agrees
he's scared too, and Arkle can't believe it really Carl
shoots back while pretending to suck his thumb. Yeah, if
I were five, Carl reminds Erkele, he's not a kid anymore.
He's a reasonable facsimile of a man. This little nightmare
(27:17):
can't get the best of him. Toughen up, man Carl's right.
Erkele puffs up his chest and decides he'll be a
manly man. Carl pep talks Arcle by asking what he's
scared of, and the manly man confidently responds nothing. With
this new found attitude, Urkel encourages Carl to go upstairs
and catch some z's while he holds down the fort. So, yeah,
maybe it was about being alone, even though I wish
he would I wish he would have said that, no.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Please stay with me.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I don't want to be alone. Stevel came back, right,
But it's also.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
If this is before dinner, everybody's leaving, and so wouldn't
Steve be handing out the candy which he did to
the apparently the only three tree that showed up at
the house, And like the dad's going to bed, mom's out, Well,
the dad's going to.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Bed before dinner, He's gonna have a quick snooze.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Right, But Steve already was handing out candy, So why
is he trying to stay awake at five o'clock?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
So bump, It's just god, I know, but this.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
One really didn't make a whole like the story didn't.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
You're right, Why does he need all that to stay
awake at five?
Speaker 3 (28:18):
It's five pm? Is he? Is he a narcolepsy? Is
this now a problem? I mean, it's one of those
I gotta stay awake. It's four thirty if I shouldn't
be a problem. It's four thirty on Halloween night.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Remember he stayed up since the night before so he
was so he's now running on like twenty four hours.
Yeah yeah, yeah, of no sleep because he said it's
three hours into Halloween, so at least he was up
since like three am. He didn't sleep last night. So
I guess that that is what's making sense. I think
maybe we're the problem.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Of course we are.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
We know we're the problem. Of course we are.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Carl sarcastically says he'll sleep better knowing that, and Ercle
does not catch the joke. He feels good about himself.
He's got everything under control. Rkele casually sits on the
couch right next to a decorative skeleton. As he sinks in,
the skeleton's arm moves onto his shoulder, and the manly
man frantically stands up, screaming. Eventually realizing it was not thing,
he tries to brush it off. I'm cool, I'm cool.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
But now this wasn't a dream and the skeleton did move.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
The skeleton did move, yeah, but I think it's just
because of the way he sunk into his couch couch.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I saw that skeleton put its arm around him.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
That I did too. It's a romprider.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah, relax, enjoy it. Then we're in Carl's room. Carl
walks out of the bathroom holding a bottle of peptobismal.
He laughs about the evil ventriloquist dummy and takes a
seat on the bed. He reads his peptobismal bottle and
realizes it's a new flavor. He takes a swig in
his face immediately sours. Apparently the new flavor is chalk.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Question before you go on, just very quickly, because I
was curious about this when I watched it. How often
do both of you actually talk to yourselves out there?
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I was going to say, this is how you know.
Time you have this in a script, you have to
change it.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Right, time to rewrite, time to rewrite. You cannot do
it even on my thankfully, even on Disney Channel shows now,
where it's so convenient to have a kid walk into
a room and say something to themselves out of.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Everybody go all right, I guess I'll just go over
here and have my find myself.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yep, yep. Nope. Even on a very kids show now,
people are like, we can't do this. Maybe maybe one
one thing like where is everyone? Maybe, but pretty much it's.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
One of my favorite things that you know, when I
do the Young Storytellers, I'm teaching kids how to, like
fifth graders, to write scripts, and we outline and then
we get to the actual dialogue. And it's always so
funny because they all want to do this. They all
want to if the characters by themselves, they're just like
and then they say, oh, I'm hungry. I guess I'll
go to the fridge and get some dy And you know,
you you have to just let them write what they write,
(30:59):
and then you like go back and give them notes
the other thing that they always do. It's so funny
they have people say their lines simultaneously, so there'll be
like two characters that we'll both be like who came
to the party, And you're like, how do people know
to just psychically say the same thing. It's one of
those like things you just have to explain. You can
have voiceover, you can have the ways to show what
(31:21):
somebody's you know, thinking, without having them just say it.
But yeah, it is like first thought writing things, like
everyone could just express themselves and then two people could
just say the whole line together.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah, it's so funny. He sets the bottle down and
turns out the lights. He sighs aloud and once again
talks to himself loudly, shaking his head in disbelief. Evil
ventriloquist dummy. He calls it crazy as he falls asleep.
We enter Carl's dream in the Winslow's living room. Carl
walks downstairs, eating out of a big bucket o brittle.
(31:54):
He notices an, see, this is how you know where
you're in dreams when people what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
You know, So it's like when you're in dream you're
getting to eat your.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Giant Yeah, and for people watching to help make it
clear Okay, when you're in a dream, you got these.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Big food equals big dreams, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Exactly, They're all my dreams are made up.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Danielle just in a diet doughnut down to a cheeseburger house.
It's just her hole. She's just skipping down.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I'm getting hungry, guys, yells.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Whole dream sequence is just that.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
He notices a tall box in the middle of the
living room that's labeled fragile. The box is addressed to him,
so he decides to open it. Also, he's talking to
himself in his dream. Huh, Carl winslow, that's me. And
it's another Ventriloquis dummy, but this one looks exactly like him.
He's even dressed in a cute little matching police uniform.
(32:57):
Carl wonders who could have sent this. He needs to
sit and put the dummy on his lap, leading into
a cheesy ventriloquist joke about mayonnaise. Carl and his puppet
love the gag. Then Erkele walks downstairs and is terrified
to find Carl playing with this dummy. Carl says he's
just having fun, but Erkele compares playing with a ventriloquist
dummy to playing with a loaded gun. Carl tells him
it's just a hunk of wood. He's not alive, and
(33:20):
then boom, the front door comes crashing down and Stevel
walks in amidst a wall of green fog. He tells
Carl not yet, then zaps the new ventriloquist dummy with
his lightning powers, bringing him to life. The dummy swiftly
jumps off Carl's lap and stands with Stevel. Carl nervously
asks who are you? His puppet doppelganger answers in a deep,
(33:41):
gruff voice, you can call me Carl's Bad. Thunder and
lightning strikes again. As Erkele and Carl stare at their
look alikes in horror. We go to a commercial break.
Then we return to the living room, now with the
puppet slowly creeping toward the humans. Carl's Bad declares that
they have some big plans for these fleagh boys. Erkele
asks to rob and murder. Carl's Bad admits, Nah, we're
(34:05):
going into show business. Erkele gasps, that's even worse. Stevel
asks his evil friend, when you become human, what are
you going to do? Carl's Bad shouts, I'm going to Vegas.
I'm offended, absolutely offended?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Yeah, deeply offended.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
You're not offended by this sixty two dollars coffee.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
That's my favorite part.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
That's not what offends you.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
He swiftly jumps onto the couch and turns on a boombox.
Generic hip hop starts to play, and Stevel shows off
some radical dance skills. He even gives us, this is
really painful.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
I don't get it was.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
It's like, if you have the joke, Okay, the joke
is like they want to go to Hollywood? Are they
want to be entertainers? Okay, it's just bad. Fine, but
there is a version where that could be, like what
if they're like suddenly very insecure actors and or they
really care about it and it's like gen you know.
But instead it's just like, let's have the let's have
(35:05):
the Little puppets dance, yeah for and moonwalk and moonwalk
yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Then he turns things over to Carl's Bad, who does
his own share of cool moves, including the cabbage patch,
the two puppets bump butts and spin in unison. They
end the routine by walking up to the humans and
stomping on their feet. As the guys are doubled over
in pain, Stevel turns off the music. Dance time is over.
Carl's bad ads, now hand over your souls so we
(35:32):
can become human. Erkle reminds Carl that he's a cop.
He asks, what do they do? Carl stammers, well, section
three of the police manual says, uh, run for your life.
They both dart in opposite directions, but their dummies are
already there, blocking them from a doorway. So Erkele and
Carl quickly run upstairs.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Kick the dummy. Kick the dummy. Not a hard thing.
What are you running from? They're not even armed and
Carl's a cop.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
He has a gun, I know he can't done with
a nightstick And later seeing I was like, where was that?
Speaker 3 (36:02):
There was? Where's your firearm? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:05):
But the dummies are.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
The second the door falls as Stevel shows up, he's
his line, but dummies pleading. End of episode hysterical.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
That's Halloween episode of all time.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
You start the episode at a crime scene with a
tiny little outline of a dead dummis and you go back.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
And you go, you go, what the hell happened here, Carl, Well,
dummy broke down my door.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
That would be great.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Now in Carl's room. Ercle and Carl scramble inside and
slam the door shut behind them, but within seconds the
dummies pry it open a crack. Both sides struggle in
a frantic tug of war, each pushing with all their
might to either keep the puppets out or force their
way in. Finally, Carl manages to close the door and
lock it. Carl comments on how strong those puppets are,
but Erkle is staying positive they may have discouraged them.
(37:01):
He bends down and puts his ear against the door.
He doesn't hear a peep. Then crash, an axe goes
through the door, leaving a hole for Carl's bad to
peek through. A cute reference to the shining popping out
of the splintered wood, he declares, here's Carl's bad. But
then Carl realizes they can use a nearby dresser. They
drag it in front of the door, blocking the hole
and in turn those evil puppets. Carl is certain they
(37:24):
can't get through it. It's solid oak. Immediately after he
says this, the top drawer shoots out and hits him
in the head. Various drawers start popping out and hitting
Carl and the crotch and in the head, and one
drawer even has Carl's bad in it. He grabs onto
Carl's nose and squeezes it thar she blows. Carl screams
for Erkele's help, but Erkele just grabs his ear, making
(37:45):
it worse. Carl clarifies, don't help them, help me. Rkle
quickly pulls him away from the possessed dummy, and they
watch on as the dresser drawers open and close all
on their own. Eventually, Stevel and Carl's bad pop out
of one, yelling peekaboo. The lights go out as thunder
and lightning rumble outside, flashing light on the dummies as
they let out maniacal laughs. Then they magically disappear. Carl
(38:07):
checks the drawers what is going on? Then more lightning
flashes and the lights go out. We hear Erkle scream
and when the lights come on, he's gone. Carl calls
out for him, but he's nowhere to be found. He
starts to panic, Oh no, oh no. He looks directly
into the camera and screams, they've got Steve, and then
Carl creeps downstairs, looking through the pelvis bone of a
(38:29):
skeleton and carrying his baton for protection glasses. I think
this is something Will would have done, Like Will done that,
and then they would have been like, do that, and
that's the one they would have used.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
That seems like.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
He calls out for Erkele and searches the room for
any signs. Then he sees something. It's a large white
sheet covering something that looks like a sofa chair. Carl
reaches for the sheet, terrified that he'll find Erkele dead underneath.
He pulls it off and we hear a woman scream
it's a creepy skeleton. Carl lets out a dramatic cry,
and the door starts to creak open behind him. Thinking
it might be Arkle, Carl slowly walks to it and
sticks his head outside. Then bam, a skeleton falls onto
(39:07):
his head. Carl screams in horror as he shakes the
bones off. Then he hears noises coming from the kitchen.
Now he's angry if they touch my dove bars. Dove
bars are delicious. He storms into the room to find Arkle.
Slows and scaring ahead.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Blinds is the only commentary I means, are delicious, delicious, and.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
That's what Carl walks on the.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
You're welcome. Carl asks what have they done to him?
The thunder and lightning get more aggressive, and Carl looks
very scared. The lights go out, and the lightning lets
us see small snippets of Carl, wide eyed, yelling what
a terrible, awful night? When will this ever end? The
lights turn on, and now Stevel and Carl's batter right
behind him, standing on the dining table. Carl's bad announces
(40:02):
very soon, one soul down, one to go. Stevel now
speaks in Erkele's human voice, don't I look pretty in
a human soul? Carl grabs Stevel, pulling him off the table.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Well, is in the dummy?
Speaker 1 (40:18):
Ercles in the dummy?
Speaker 2 (40:19):
But then why is the dummy still evil? Like at
this point they should want to save the dummy?
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Yeah, Carl Grass, Carl gret pulling him off the table. Well,
now that you have a soul, why don't you stop
being evil?
Speaker 2 (40:41):
I want to use the film award guys always on.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
Dancing with.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
A Lace, Dancing with the Stars four digits we've all
accomplished this.
Speaker 3 (41:01):
Oh, I got something.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
I graduated with Latin honors from Columbia.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
Guys, this.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Is what gets you.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
I graduated magna CUMLOADI from fuller time.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Okay, dove bars are good, they are. That's what I
got to that conversation. I graduated in high school barely.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Stevel explains, still in Erkele's voice, I'm still evil, only
now I feel guilty about it. Carl's Bad chimes in,
I can't wait to get my soul and hit the
road to Vegas. Carl looks at him in disgust, but
Carl's Bad is reveling in it. He tells Carl to
freeze while he sucks out his soul. Carl warns him,
You're never gonna get my soul. I'm gonna fight you
to the death. Stevel and Carl's Bad declare war, and
(41:43):
when Carl reaches for Erkele, the dummies pounce. Carl's Bad
jumps onto his back while Stevel clings to his leg.
Carl can't shake them off. He begs, can't we just
get along? Carl's Bad bites his nose in response. Erkele
is still sitting in the chair looking completely empty. When
Carl is finally able to throw Carl's bad through the
glass window, then he grabs Stevel and shucks him out
the window too. The audience applauds, and Carl grabs Erkele's hand.
(42:06):
They've got to get out of there. Erkele says nothing
as Carl drags him through the house like a zombie,
but once at the front door, Erkele pulls away. Carl
wants to know what's going on, and Erkele's face goes
sinister as a green light shines on him. In a
very deep, stevil voice. A now very different looking Erkele asks,
what's the rush? A horrified Carl shouts no, no, as
(42:26):
Erkele shoots green laser beams out of his eyes and
into Carl's soaking out his soul.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
Both evil, So Rkle, the body and and Stevel are
somehow now both evil, even though one of them is
supposed to have soul.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
Right right, And then we slowly fade out of the
dream sequence. Carl's room, Carl is in bed, screaming.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
Discussing, warns like right right, okay, So then Stevel.
Speaker 1 (42:56):
Carl is in bed screaming, not my soul. No, not
my dovebar, there's no. He jumps out of bed and
sprints out the door. See the reason we don't have
to discuss it is because it's a dream, and you know,
you don't have to make yeah, right, nothing has to.
Speaker 3 (43:11):
Make like cheeseburger house in French Fries.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
Totally exactly.
Speaker 2 (43:14):
That's except and then there was Sean, who is a
dream I know, and it's a good one. Yeah, has
actual character relationship, you know, has a point.
Speaker 3 (43:22):
Yeah, this is this is just a yeah, it's a
the Winslow's living room, Erkele is sitting on the couch
laughing with the decorative skeleton, who he calls a great listener.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
It falls limp on the couch and response a careful
Karl slowly walks down the stairs, still shaking off the nightmare.
Erkele asks if he'd like any of the carmel covered squid.
He shakes his head, it admits he's just had the
worst nightmare of his life. Erkle guesses, was it the
one where you have to frisk nell Carter, which is
a I think a fat.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Joke, I guess, so, yeah, or give me a break joke.
Speaker 2 (43:56):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (43:57):
I don't get Carter, give me a break. I don't
I think must just yet.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
Why would a nightmare beds? Yeah, just that she's a
larger word.
Speaker 3 (44:04):
I thought, that's my guess. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
Carl says it was even worse than that one. This
time he had a dream about Stevel. He tells Erkel
about Carl's bad and the two puppets trying to steal
their souls. It made me realize I should have never
made fun of your nightmare. Erkele's shocked. Really, Carl continues,
I should have encouraged you to talk about it that way.
It wouldn't have seemed so scary. Rkele thanks him for
the kindness. As Carl begins to walk away, Erkele follows
(44:27):
after him. Have I ever told you about the nightmare
where I was locked in a cheese factory but I
had no nose, And then Myra showed up and she
wanted to give me a kiss, but I had no lips.
Then I tried to run home, but I had no feet.
Erkele goes on and on and on, and Carl again
looks directly into the camera, regretting his prior words of
dream related encouragement. And then my mother showed up, but
she was wearing velvet boxer shorts. Carl turns away from Rkele,
(44:50):
walking upstairs without a peep, but Erkele still follows. Carl,
still detailing his other nightmares, like when he was milk
fed veal chop engaged to an elderly lamb. Chop laughs
and the credits roll, and then we're in the tag
in Las Vegas. We see various nineties Vegas hotels and
a sign that reads now appearing in the oak room
Stevel and Carl's Bad. The two dummies walk onto stage
(45:12):
wearing green and red sequined tailcoats paired with sparkly gold
bow ties and cumber buns. They think the audience for
the warm welcome, and Stevell admits it's not easy being
the short, and Carl's Bad asks why Stevel answers, because
you're always the last guy to know when it rains.
The audience groans, so Stevel tries again. He tells them
I was dating this female puppet once, and Carl's Bad
(45:32):
asks why'd you stop? Stevel says, because she cheated on
me with a Gi Joe doll. Now the audience booze
and the dummies can't believe it is this thing on
Carl's Bad asks what are you people? Mannequins? A man
heckles back, No, but you are. Stevel asks him to
repeat that in the parking lot, and Carl's Bad threatens,
we'll rip your heart out. The audience starts to boo
(45:53):
even louder, and Carl's Bad tells Stevel they really hate you.
Stevel asks me, what do you mean me? Carl's Bad's
says he has all the funny lines and he's blowing them,
but Stevell blames it on his bad setups. They start
to wrestle each other on stage, falling to the floor
and ending with Stevel choking Carl's Bad out as the
final credits role. Thank you all for joining us for

And she was like and she was like huh. And
then I was like okay. And then when I was leaving,
I was like, bye, it was good to see you again.
She didn't respond to me, so I leave and I
text my friend Jamie, who knows everything about. Jamie's one
of those people who like someone tells me like, well,

Speaker 3 (01:25):
I'm like, how do you remember this?

She's like remembers everything. So I called Jamie and I'm like, Jamie,
I just ran into this woman named this and she
she did mention that she was friends with you on
Facebook and she's like, oh yeah. She sends me a
picture of her. She's like this woman she's a doctor.
And I'm like, oh cool. Four nights later, Dylan Efron
breaks his nose at dance rehearsal Ghost. I'm like, I'll
(01:50):
take you to the emergency room and he's like, no,
it's fine. I'm just gonna have my assistant take me.

like no, my assistant's on his way. I'm like, okay,
his assistant takes him. He sends me a text two
hours later. He's like, the doctor here went to high
school with you.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
It was her. It was her.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Here's the funny thing. Here's how I know for sure
it was her. He goes, the doctor is the doctor
here went to high school with you? But she says, you.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Won't remember her.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And I said, well, now I do because I just
wander a dry bar. But I didn't remember her from
thirty years ago.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
But she didn't mention the dry bar running. No, you didn't.
You make an appointment with her, find out whatever type
of doctor she is, if she's a rhinoplastic.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Whatever it is you are, doctor are doctors.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
You gotta just show up and then then introduce yourself
and say we were high school together. You probably don't
remember me.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I told him. I was like, please tell her. I said, hello,
we just ran into each other. I don't want her
thinking I don't know who she is now. And I said, also,
I want her to take good care of you. I
don't want her to like, yeah, I just I.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Just had this similar thing. But that made me feel
far more old. Where I was, you know, in the hospital,
and a nurse came up to me, and a nurse said,
you went to high school with my mom.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So I was like, we have to you were in
the hospital. You were in the hospital for a family member,
not for family.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
It wasn't me, and everything's good, by the way, but
we were there as a routine thing. But we were there.
And she came up and she said, oh, yeah, I
think you went to high school with my mom. And
I said what, and so.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Dude, you're grandpa in myself not that crazy in my mind.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I'm still only forty.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Eight, I know.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
So yeah. She's just so strange though, And then she
did she texted her mom and said, oh, he's here,
and then her mom wrote back, I think I remember him.
Was he friends with somebody else? And I was like,
the fact that you were on Boy Meets World? No, No,
it wasn't that, and she's like, oh, yeah, I think
I remember. So again, I got four seed by someone
(03:52):
I went to high school with. Forgot, Danielle. You probably
won't remember me, but we did Boy Meets World together, so.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Go o my gosh. I know. It's it is still
shocking to me the amount of people who will come
up and ask for a picture or something, and then
I take the picture and I'm like, bye, it was
so nice to meet you, and they're like thanks, my
mom's gonna love.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
This, like yep, yep, it happens quite a bit. Yeah,
my grandma, if you used to have pictures of you
on her wall, I'm like, oh my god, and I've
in my head I picture him like the old pictographs
where it's just the cutout of like the half of
my face, the silhouettes old the silhouette, it's just that like,
oh my god, Duff, he's so cute. Yes, nice, awesome,
(04:37):

Our side mission through family sitcom. Holiday at is Odes continues,
and even though Halloween is behind us, there was one
spooky excursion we still had to make, returning to the
universe of TGIF and diving into a rare TV episode sequel.
We are back at Family Matters for Stevel two. This
time He's not alone. Guys. Was Stevel won the best
(06:21):
Halloween episode we have seen thus far? I think it was, Yes,
were the most full.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
It was better than Fresh Prince and it was really yeah,
I think because remember Fresh Prince just ended like the
whole story just stopped. Yeah, where Stepel was like, it
didn't take itself seriously, but it was a little spooky
and it had the puppet was really cool, and then
they showed the making of at the end. Like I thought,
all around, it was a pretty solid Halloween episode.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, I guess, so.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
What do you think of? And then there was was
Sean Part two would.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Have looked like, oh, it would have been great. Yeah,
it would have been let's see what was Scream part two?
Like what would have been the next evolution? Because it's like.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Would you have done Scream or would you have picked
a whole different horror.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Type of genre. Yeah, Like we're.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
At like maybe everybody goes to camp and it's like
a Jason, No, we all go to we all go
to ski lodge.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
We all got to go to got to go to
a haunted cabin.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Yeah, in the mountains. It's a Phoene's cabin. Yeah, and
a great idea. Phoene's cabin.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Yep, that's it. And we do at idea we do
like some.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
BB episode, but but horror, Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
A moose can't be a killer a moss.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So Stevel two was season nine, episode seven of Family
Matters final season and a year after the original Stevel
So it must have been a hit. The follow up
aired on Halloween Night nineteen ninety seven, And if you
want to check out Stevel two you can right now.
It's streaming on Hulu, so you can know about everything
related to a possessed Rkle and reginaldville Johnson doll Okay,
(07:59):
What are your early thoughts on this sequel episode.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I mean, I don't know, you don't really don't. This
was terrible. It was good.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It was am because I like the idea of like
going back and like having another ROMP and like, I guess,
going in, especially since they're set up with by the
first one so well, it was like anything goes and
they kept it very small and like it's really just
the two actors the entire time.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Like, yeah, nobody else everyone had finals.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, I think, I think, I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I like the idea of there being two dolls, and
I like the idea of Carl having his doll. I
thought that was funny and it looked funny, but then
they just didn't do any in like the Vegas joke,
like the whole like Hollywood entertainment thing. When it went
on for like five minutes of them dancing, I was like, oh, really,
this is just dancing.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
And it was also so much set up just get
into it. How many scenes were there going to be
about Steve? This was a dream, This was a dream.
You don't you got a sleep? You got to I mean,
they were like it felt like half the episode before
it was like Okay, come on, yeah, get into.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
It also seemed like it was the same director, but
the voice seemed different, even though.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I totally thought the voice was different.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Right, well, I thought it was a different guy, but
it's not. It's the same guy. And then Reginald vel
Johnson doesn't even take off his shoes when he takes
a nap. It's the first time, that's true.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It was the exact same thing. He laid down on
the bed basically like this, with his full shoes on
and his whole outfit. It's you know, because then they
got to get up. Then they got to get up
and run, and they can't have to stop and put
their shoes on.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
So what would you have done for Stevel too? How
would you have added to the the Stevel storyline?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
I would have gone with what they did essentially in
I wouldn't have made it reginaldvel Johnson. I would have
made it the girl he's in love with. And I
would have done because Chucky doesn't Chucky get a bride.
It's like Bride of Chucky. I would have gone Bride
of Chucky with it, and it would have been Laura
that would have done it, and it would have been
the two a boy puppet and a girl puppet running
around doing stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It would have been fun to just take the stevil
idea and bring it to other characters, which they kind
of did with Carl, but they should have probably had
Steve not in this one at all. Yeah, and like
the Stevel and Lisz other family members and gets other
dolls and then at the end Erkele comes back. But yeah,
as it was, it was just kind of like, oh,
we're just doing this again.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah. Eventually the synopsis Erkele's evil ventriloquist dummy Stevel is
back with a vengeance, and this time he's not alone.
His sidekick, Carl's Bad has arrived to help steal Erkele
and Carl's souls. It was directed again by Rich Correll.
He is a sitcom vet who directed the very first
Stevel episode and it was written by a new name,
(10:37):
Jim Gogan. Jim was a big sitcom writer, starting his
career on shows like Facts of Life, Silver Spoons, and
Mama's Family. He'd end up creating the Sweet Life of
Zach and Cody, which is a fun career trajectory. This
is one of thirty two Family Matters episodes that he wrote,
we went over the stars in our first recap, but
here's a quick reminder. Reginald Bell Johnson is Carl Winslow.
(10:58):
Joe Marie Payton plays Harriet Winslow, Darius McCrary as Eddie Winslow,
Kelly Sheen Williams is Laura Winslow. Brighton James is Richie Crawford,
and the great Julia White as Steve Urkele. Guest starring
this week, Orlando Brown returns as three J. Director Rich
Carrell again supplies Stevel with his voice. Josh Ryan Evans
is also back as Stevel. Evans, who was just thirty
(11:20):
seven inches tall, was best known as Timmy Lennox on
the soap opera Passions and as Baby Grinch in The
Jim Carrey Grinch That Stole Christmas. He passed back in
two thousand and two at the young age of twenty,
but now we have Ed Gail as Carlsbad. Ed was
a little person legend in Hollywood. He appeared in over
one hundred and thirty movies and TV shows. Most famously,
(11:42):
he was Howard the Duck in Howard the Duck and
Chucky in Child's Play, which is the character this entire
Family Matters premises based on Gail, passed away this past
May at the age of sixty one.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, Howard the duck. They also put a little kid
in the outfit and it was like hot and he
was like eight and they just tortured this little kid
in the set. Yeah it was bad.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah. Wow. Jumping into our recap, we start in the
cold open. We are back in the Winslow's house and
if this feels familiar, it's because this is the same
warning they used for the first st Evil.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I get waiting for them to add to it. I
was like, no, it's gonna be and then they're like,
turn the lights on. I was like, that's my name.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I also thought I was watching the wrong episode, but
the kids do look older, but I was like, wait,
am I watching stevel One. So if you've forgotten, Erkele
WARN's viewers that this Halloween episode might be scary, so
to watch it with someone brave. Richie and three J
luckily beside him on the couch promise they have his back,
but Erkle still wants to turn on the lights. Now
we're in the Winslow's Halloween decorated living room. Despite his
(12:45):
best efforts to stay awake. Urkle is falling fast asleep
on the couch. He quickly catches himself snoring and decides
the best way to keep himself awake is to impressively
dribble a basketball. Then Laura, in a robe, makes her
way downstairs and kindly announces she has a message for
Erkle from her dad. Erkle is interested to hear. She
aggressively shouts stop that. By the way, this robe that
(13:06):
Laura is wearing was a very popular nineties Yeah, this robe.
I think Tipega had this robe. I think it was
also on Friends.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
It's a friend's robe too.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yep, it's it was on every sitcom in the nineties
someone had this robe. So what is he up? What
is he doing up at three am? Anyways, he reminds
her it's three hours into Halloween night. He's not sleeping
tonight or tomorrow night. In fact, he may not even
sleep until Thanksgiving. She wonders if he's still afraid of
that nightmare from last year about his ventriloquist dummy. Erkele
(13:41):
insists Stevel was no ordinary dummy. He was a diabolic,
satanic evil force born in the heart of darkness. He
also never gave me my phone messages. Laura doesn't understand. M.
Laura doesn't understand how he's still afraid. Isn't the dummy gone?
Erkle admits he is gone. He chopped him up into
a million pieces, grounded him in a blender, then flushed
(14:02):
his sawdust down the toilet. So Laura lists three reasons
he shouldn't be afraid. One Stevel's not real, Two he
flushed him down the toilet, and three he's not real
Erkele shrugs her off. A man's got to do what
a man's got to do. She tells him he better
do it without dribbling, and heads back upstairs with the ball.
Now alone again, Erkle decides he should watch some TV
(14:22):
to keep him awake. He clicks to turn on the
TV and decides to check out what's on ABC.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Network.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Just no, it's worse than that. The last season of
Family Matters was on CBS to CBS, so he was
actually insulting. They were insulting the old network that let
them go.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It is running.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
You get a joke about the yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
So that was actually he was. He was the old network.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Yes, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
So he's like, let's see what's on ABC? And he's
back a sleeves. Now we enter Erkle's dream sequence. In
the bathroom, we once again have thunder and lightning storm
lights up a very dark scene. The camera zooms in
on the toilet. The seat flies open, revealing a wooden hand,
eventually an intact but what Stevel pops his head out
and creepily announces, I'm back.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Do you guys ever? Do you remember the movie Gholies?
Of course I never saw it, but it was always
the cover of the movie at the VHS store was
a hand coming out of the No, it was a
little green guy coming it was a whole.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
That's right, he's like pushing up the thing, pushing up
the right. I know, he's just like is.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Remember because it was like a rip off Gremlins. It
was like right around the same time as Gremlins. So
somebody made Ghoulies and I always wanted to rent it.
My parents would never let me. Like a ghoule, Yeah,
like a little but the cover was just legendary. It
was like a green little monster coming out of the toilet,
and I just it's indelible. And the second he said,
you know, I ground him up and threw him down
(15:53):
the toilet. I was like, Oh, there's gonna be the shot.
There's gonna be a shot of him coming out of
the toilet right away. Oh yeah, they could have cut
to it right away, by the way, about too much
set up like that should have been it like ground
him up and cut it a boom, cut to lightning strikes.
It comes out of the toilet. We know what happened.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Also, Danielle, if you can avoid in the future saying
a wet stevel comes out of the toilet, I really appreciate.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
No, I'm going to say a wet stevel comes out
of the toilet every episode. Now and then we're back
in the living room. Arcle is now eating lots of crackers,
paired with a giant tubo cheese, still in his pajamas.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Visual guys, we got a bucket of brittle later.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Did they did?
Speaker 3 (16:31):
They?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Really?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Did?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
They do it specifically because they wanted everyone to know
we're now in the dream sequence.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I guess I think that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I think they literally it was probably like on set
they're like, oh, he's eating crackers and cheese, and I
don't know, They're like.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
We find at joke whose dream it is.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It's it's Steve now and then he wakes up and
then there's another thing.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Yeah right, but so is Stevel. Then only in carl dream.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
No, stevel'sn't And this is dream, this is Streamestrea, this
is Erkele's dream's two separate dreams. And then I was
waiting for the end to be like, oh and it's
all a dream and somebody else, but it didn't do
it didn't go that far. No, it's just literally Steve
has a dream and Carl has a.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Dream, and then they're real also, but are they wait,
so then they're really.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Carl wakes up from his dream and comes downstairs and says,
you have to tell me about oh no, and then.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
They just talk about their dreams and they walk upstairs
and that's it. Yeah, okay, what are you.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Doing, Steve.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
After some more thunder and lightning, the lights start to flicker,
and eventually they go out completely, leaving the screen one
hundred pitch black. Then, after a few seconds, they turn
back on and Erkele finds himself face to face with Stevel.
Erkele shrieks and terror as Stevel lets out another evil laugh.
Erkele backs away. He can't believe it. It's you, it's you.
Stevel responds, it sure is, bone butt.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You just made yourself laugh just by saying that I.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Love it, and I love bone butt. Just start calling
my kid's bone butt. Thanks for flushing me down the toilet.
Pal I spent the last year hanging out in sewers,
bobbing for rats. Erkele asks him what he wants, and
stevil grins, Oh, not much, just your soul. The puppet
hops down from the couch and slowly approaches Erkele, who
pleads with them, why don't you take the guy's next door.
(18:27):
He's a lawyer, he's never used his classic lawyer jokes.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Lawyer it's yeah, it's there.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Used to be so many of them.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Lawyer jokes, mother in law jokes. Those are like the
go tos.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Yeah. Erkele stumbles into the armchair. As Stevell gets closer,
he tells Erkele he won't settle for any soul he
wants his. Erkele shrieks as Steve hops onto him and declares,
hold still, this is gonna hurt like the Dickens. The
evil puppet proceeds to shoot green laser beams into Erkele's
eyes as he screams in pain. But then the dream
sequence starts to fade. We're into a different scene. Still
(19:12):
in the Winslow's living room, Erkele is sleeping on the couch,
tossing and turning in agony. He finally wakes himself up
and scans the room in fear. He realizes he fell
asleep and Stevell managed to come back. How did this happen?
Then we go to a tense commercial break as Erkle
checks behind a small pillow. We return in the Winslow house.
The title graphics Stevil two. This time He's not alone,
(19:33):
appears just as Erkele is handing out carmel covered squid pray,
lean prunes, and three bean taffy to Tricker treaders. They
are less than enthused and he can't understand why. He
asks for a thank you, and he's met with a
barrage of candy thrown at him. Eddie and Laura walk
downstairs wearing some impressive Halloween costumes. Eddie is dressed as
Don King and Laura is wearing an elaborate alien costume.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
So he tries to guess Halloween sitcom things he always
gott to have like the presentation funny outfits. And it's
also it's.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Like you walk downstairs and it's such a sitcumting thing too.
You walk downstairs with the giant alien head on and
then you have to take it off to show who
you are and say you're lines, and then you have
to put it.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Back on it.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yeah, can I writer? I think you said you you
watched the Chucky movies? Have you seen them?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I've seen the first one. I don't think I've seen
anything past that.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Does anyone just kick the puppet away from them? Yes?
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I think I think it's actually a key scene in
the first one, like, yeah, there's a bit where god,
I think she kicks it at one point you think
the thing is gone and then like she it comes
out from under the I don't know. Yes, yes, they
try to make it.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
It's just slowly approaching.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
Steve.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
It's like, just kick the puppet, I know, just kick
the puppet, Like.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
How hard is that?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's what I said the first time. It's like when
you can just take the puppet apart, right, like I
I'm not scared. Really the puppet should come in and
psychologically torture them, right, Like that's what that's what a
ventriloquist could do, is like insult them and and tear
down their sense of well being, and.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
He's just doing crowd works. That's where we end up.
So it was pretty much pretty much Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
So Eddie is dressed as Don King and Laura is
wearing an elaborate alien costume. Ercle tries to guess Don
King and missus King. Eddie responds with his best Don
King impression. Arkle's half right. He's going to his fraternity
dressed as Don on que. Two pretty girls dressed in
sports bras and boxing shorts walk in and ask miss
mister King if he's ready. Well, girls are dressed in
(21:37):
scatter like they're at club. Yeah, Eddie happily takes a
girl on.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
This happen anymore? Does anybody like, do women walk onto
a stage in a city.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Anymore?
Speaker 2 (21:52):
But if there, does this happen on? This is a
regular thing.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Eddie happily takes a girl on each arm and continues
his Don King impression out the door, Only in America,
Only in America. Laura asks if he got any sleep
last night, and Erkle tells her all about the stevil
guest appearance and his nightmare. It was five of the
most terrifying minutes of his life, second only to watching
Lord of the Dance. Erkle gives a cute little imitation
of Michael Flatley. Laura reminds him it was only a dream,
(22:20):
but Erkle's adamant. I'm not dreaming anymore. I had eight
cups of espresso, a six pack of Jolt Cola, and
a giant bowl of fruit loops with extra sugar. If
you remember Jolt I remember I never drank it.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I never tasted it.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Yeah, it tastes as if somebody melted down lipstick and
then just filled the rest with nerd sweat. It's like,
it's what it's like, the chemicallyst nastiest. It is just disgusting.
It was like five times the caffeine or something ridiculous
(22:53):
like Kenya.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Can you buy it still?
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I have no idea. I have no I can't imagine
Arcia Cola.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Is still around. I think I can get that somewhere.
I remember that taste that yeahs comminated.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
I guess, OK, unless it's caffeine free. For the records,
I can I can buy Jolt cola. It appears, and
I'm wondering if I get it for you guys, would
you drink it for a pre show chatter? Yes, yes, yes,
I'll take a sip, but I don't do caffeine, so
five times the.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Caffeine will take a sip too.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
But let's get let's get jolt and arc will do
a taste test.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Okay, all right, I.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
In I'll just call that a panic attack Tuesday, not
just wipe your schedule.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
For the rest of the day.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
If your schedule planned to sit on the toilet.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
There will definitely be a wet stevel coming out of
the toilet that day, so let's be honest.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Then Richie and three J comes strolling in dressed as
the men in Black. Arkle realizes that's why Laura's the alien.
Oh my gosh. Richie and three J reveal that after
people give them can in ei, they're going to erase
their memories. That way we can go back for more.
They hold up their memory erasing devices and Arkle pretends
to fall into a trance. He asks the boys who
(24:09):
are you? And he loves his own joke. Laura says
it's time to go, and they walk out. At the
same time. Karl arrives wearing his police uniform. So I
have a question, what do we think? Why did the
scene need to happen? Why did any of this need
to happen so.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
We could see the other cast members in the episode?
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, there are so many others that aren't in the episode. Yeah,
so why do they only need these characters in the episode?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Stupid question for season nine because I didn't watch the show.
Are did all the characters make the jump from ABC
to CBS? Are all the characters still on the show?
I mean I miss the character there and the grandma
character they're still there? Are they all still there?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
I mean I read all their names, so you know
when I said I went over the this that we
went over their names in the first Reginald Bell Johnson,
Joe Marie Payton, Darius McCrary, Kelly Brighton. I guess the
only one then who's maybe not in the episode is
Joe Marie Payton, right, because Darius we just saw Kelly, right,
and then let's see that's guest starring Orlando. Yeah, the
(25:12):
grandmother is not in this episode.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
People and costume, they have the fun the kids in costume.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I'm just wondering, you know, if the show is the
same having moved to CBS. If it's all the same cast,
like everybody made the jump, or maybe some people didn't.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Interesting. Laura says it's time to go, and they walk
out at the same time. Carl arrives wearing his police uniform.
Erkele says, Carl looks a little peaked. Tough day at
the office. Carl blames it on eating too much candy
at the precinct Halloween party. He's going to take a
quick nap before dinner, but Erkele won't allow it. Jumping
jahouse a fat, it's Halloween.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Why if you can't do upstairs to say that he's
going upstairs to take a nap, but he's coming down
in his cop uniform.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
He's not coming downstairs. He came from the kitchen. That's
the kitchen over there. He's like coming from the swing door.
He enters from the kitchen. So he just got home.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
So he got home from work.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Okay, he just got home from work and he's coming
into the living room.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Gotcha, okay, so Urkle.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Says, Jumping j Hoosa fat, it's Halloween. You can't sleep.
He's the one with the dream. Why does he think
other people are going.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
To have are they may be doing, like trying to
do like a nightmare in Elm Street thing where it's
like whoever falls asleep can.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Get He doesn't think it is a dream. Urkele's convinced
it's a real character.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
So why well didn't he already fall asleep and wake back?
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And I guess in that case he thought and he said, oh,
I fell asleep and he came back.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
So this is not a dream happening right now.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
No, he already woke up and has been dealing with
Candy and he's drank the jolt, so he's going to
stay awake. So I don't know why he wouldn't just
be like I mean, maybe he's just afraid to be alone,
Like he doesn't want Carl to go to sleep.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I would, I would understand that, But that's not what
he says. You can't sleep you could have.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Does.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Carl quickly realizes and is disappointed to see this is
about last year's stevel nightmare. Rkele isn't embarrassed at all.
In fact, this time he's after his soul. Carl agrees
he's scared too, and Arkle can't believe it really Carl
shoots back while pretending to suck his thumb. Yeah, if
I were five, Carl reminds Erkele, he's not a kid anymore.
He's a reasonable facsimile of a man. This little nightmare
(27:17):
can't get the best of him. Toughen up, man Carl's right.
Erkele puffs up his chest and decides he'll be a
manly man. Carl pep talks Arcle by asking what he's
scared of, and the manly man confidently responds nothing. With
this new found attitude, Urkel encourages Carl to go upstairs
and catch some z's while he holds down the fort. So, yeah,
maybe it was about being alone, even though I wish
he would I wish he would have said that, no.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Please stay with me.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I don't want to be alone. Stevel came back, right,
But it's also.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
If this is before dinner, everybody's leaving, and so wouldn't
Steve be handing out the candy which he did to
the apparently the only three tree that showed up at
the house, And like the dad's going to bed, mom's out, Well,
the dad's going to.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Bed before dinner, He's gonna have a quick snooze.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Right, But Steve already was handing out candy, So why
is he trying to stay awake at five o'clock?
Speaker 2 (28:09):
So bump, It's just god, I know, but this.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
One really didn't make a whole like the story didn't.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
You're right, Why does he need all that to stay
awake at five?
Speaker 3 (28:18):
It's five pm? Is he? Is he a narcolepsy? Is
this now a problem? I mean, it's one of those
I gotta stay awake. It's four thirty if I shouldn't
be a problem. It's four thirty on Halloween night.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Remember he stayed up since the night before so he
was so he's now running on like twenty four hours.
Yeah yeah, yeah, of no sleep because he said it's
three hours into Halloween, so at least he was up
since like three am. He didn't sleep last night. So
I guess that that is what's making sense. I think
maybe we're the problem.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Of course we are.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
We know we're the problem. Of course we are.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Carl sarcastically says he'll sleep better knowing that, and Ercle
does not catch the joke. He feels good about himself.
He's got everything under control. Rkele casually sits on the
couch right next to a decorative skeleton. As he sinks in,
the skeleton's arm moves onto his shoulder, and the manly
man frantically stands up, screaming. Eventually realizing it was not thing,
he tries to brush it off. I'm cool, I'm cool.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
But now this wasn't a dream and the skeleton did move.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
The skeleton did move, yeah, but I think it's just
because of the way he sunk into his couch couch.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I saw that skeleton put its arm around him.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
That I did too. It's a romprider.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah, relax, enjoy it. Then we're in Carl's room. Carl
walks out of the bathroom holding a bottle of peptobismal.
He laughs about the evil ventriloquist dummy and takes a
seat on the bed. He reads his peptobismal bottle and
realizes it's a new flavor. He takes a swig in
his face immediately sours. Apparently the new flavor is chalk.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Question before you go on, just very quickly, because I
was curious about this when I watched it. How often
do both of you actually talk to yourselves out there?
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I was going to say, this is how you know.
Time you have this in a script, you have to
change it.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Right, time to rewrite, time to rewrite. You cannot do
it even on my thankfully, even on Disney Channel shows now,
where it's so convenient to have a kid walk into
a room and say something to themselves out of.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Everybody go all right, I guess I'll just go over
here and have my find myself.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Yep, yep. Nope. Even on a very kids show now,
people are like, we can't do this. Maybe maybe one
one thing like where is everyone? Maybe, but pretty much it's.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
One of my favorite things that you know, when I
do the Young Storytellers, I'm teaching kids how to, like
fifth graders, to write scripts, and we outline and then
we get to the actual dialogue. And it's always so
funny because they all want to do this. They all
want to if the characters by themselves, they're just like
and then they say, oh, I'm hungry. I guess I'll
go to the fridge and get some dy And you know,
you you have to just let them write what they write,
(30:59):
and then you like go back and give them notes
the other thing that they always do. It's so funny
they have people say their lines simultaneously, so there'll be
like two characters that we'll both be like who came
to the party, And you're like, how do people know
to just psychically say the same thing. It's one of
those like things you just have to explain. You can
have voiceover, you can have the ways to show what
(31:21):
somebody's you know, thinking, without having them just say it.
But yeah, it is like first thought writing things, like
everyone could just express themselves and then two people could
just say the whole line together.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah, it's so funny. He sets the bottle down and
turns out the lights. He sighs aloud and once again
talks to himself loudly, shaking his head in disbelief. Evil
ventriloquist dummy. He calls it crazy as he falls asleep.
We enter Carl's dream in the Winslow's living room. Carl
walks downstairs, eating out of a big bucket o brittle.
(31:54):
He notices an, see, this is how you know where
you're in dreams when people what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
You know, So it's like when you're in dream you're
getting to eat your.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Giant Yeah, and for people watching to help make it
clear Okay, when you're in a dream, you got these.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Big food equals big dreams, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Exactly, They're all my dreams are made up.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Danielle just in a diet doughnut down to a cheeseburger house.
It's just her hole. She's just skipping down.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I'm getting hungry, guys, yells.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Whole dream sequence is just that.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
He notices a tall box in the middle of the
living room that's labeled fragile. The box is addressed to him,
so he decides to open it. Also, he's talking to
himself in his dream. Huh, Carl winslow, that's me. And
it's another Ventriloquis dummy, but this one looks exactly like him.
He's even dressed in a cute little matching police uniform.
(32:57):
Carl wonders who could have sent this. He needs to
sit and put the dummy on his lap, leading into
a cheesy ventriloquist joke about mayonnaise. Carl and his puppet
love the gag. Then Erkele walks downstairs and is terrified
to find Carl playing with this dummy. Carl says he's
just having fun, but Erkele compares playing with a ventriloquist
dummy to playing with a loaded gun. Carl tells him
it's just a hunk of wood. He's not alive, and
(33:20):
then boom, the front door comes crashing down and Stevel
walks in amidst a wall of green fog. He tells
Carl not yet, then zaps the new ventriloquist dummy with
his lightning powers, bringing him to life. The dummy swiftly
jumps off Carl's lap and stands with Stevel. Carl nervously
asks who are you? His puppet doppelganger answers in a deep,
(33:41):
gruff voice, you can call me Carl's Bad. Thunder and
lightning strikes again. As Erkele and Carl stare at their
look alikes in horror. We go to a commercial break.
Then we return to the living room, now with the
puppet slowly creeping toward the humans. Carl's Bad declares that
they have some big plans for these fleagh boys. Erkele
asks to rob and murder. Carl's Bad admits, Nah, we're
(34:05):
going into show business. Erkele gasps, that's even worse. Stevel
asks his evil friend, when you become human, what are
you going to do? Carl's Bad shouts, I'm going to Vegas.
I'm offended, absolutely offended?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Yeah, deeply offended.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
You're not offended by this sixty two dollars coffee.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
That's my favorite part.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
That's not what offends you.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
He swiftly jumps onto the couch and turns on a boombox.
Generic hip hop starts to play, and Stevel shows off
some radical dance skills. He even gives us, this is
really painful.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
I don't get it was.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
It's like, if you have the joke, Okay, the joke
is like they want to go to Hollywood? Are they
want to be entertainers? Okay, it's just bad. Fine, but
there is a version where that could be, like what
if they're like suddenly very insecure actors and or they
really care about it and it's like gen you know.
But instead it's just like, let's have the let's have
(35:05):
the Little puppets dance, yeah for and moonwalk and moonwalk
yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Then he turns things over to Carl's Bad, who does
his own share of cool moves, including the cabbage patch,
the two puppets bump butts and spin in unison. They
end the routine by walking up to the humans and
stomping on their feet. As the guys are doubled over
in pain, Stevel turns off the music. Dance time is over.
Carl's bad ads, now hand over your souls so we
(35:32):
can become human. Erkle reminds Carl that he's a cop.
He asks, what do they do? Carl stammers, well, section
three of the police manual says, uh, run for your life.
They both dart in opposite directions, but their dummies are
already there, blocking them from a doorway. So Erkele and
Carl quickly run upstairs.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Kick the dummy. Kick the dummy. Not a hard thing.
What are you running from? They're not even armed and
Carl's a cop.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
He has a gun, I know he can't done with
a nightstick And later seeing I was like, where was that?
Speaker 3 (36:02):
There was? Where's your firearm? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:05):
But the dummies are.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
The second the door falls as Stevel shows up, he's
his line, but dummies pleading. End of episode hysterical.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
That's Halloween episode of all time.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
You start the episode at a crime scene with a
tiny little outline of a dead dummis and you go back.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
And you go, you go, what the hell happened here, Carl, Well,
dummy broke down my door.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
That would be great.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Now in Carl's room. Ercle and Carl scramble inside and
slam the door shut behind them, but within seconds the
dummies pry it open a crack. Both sides struggle in
a frantic tug of war, each pushing with all their
might to either keep the puppets out or force their
way in. Finally, Carl manages to close the door and
lock it. Carl comments on how strong those puppets are,
but Erkle is staying positive they may have discouraged them.
(37:01):
He bends down and puts his ear against the door.
He doesn't hear a peep. Then crash, an axe goes
through the door, leaving a hole for Carl's bad to
peek through. A cute reference to the shining popping out
of the splintered wood, he declares, here's Carl's bad. But
then Carl realizes they can use a nearby dresser. They
drag it in front of the door, blocking the hole
and in turn those evil puppets. Carl is certain they
(37:24):
can't get through it. It's solid oak. Immediately after he
says this, the top drawer shoots out and hits him
in the head. Various drawers start popping out and hitting
Carl and the crotch and in the head, and one
drawer even has Carl's bad in it. He grabs onto
Carl's nose and squeezes it thar she blows. Carl screams
for Erkele's help, but Erkele just grabs his ear, making
(37:45):
it worse. Carl clarifies, don't help them, help me. Rkle
quickly pulls him away from the possessed dummy, and they
watch on as the dresser drawers open and close all
on their own. Eventually, Stevel and Carl's bad pop out
of one, yelling peekaboo. The lights go out as thunder
and lightning rumble outside, flashing light on the dummies as
they let out maniacal laughs. Then they magically disappear. Carl
(38:07):
checks the drawers what is going on? Then more lightning
flashes and the lights go out. We hear Erkle scream
and when the lights come on, he's gone. Carl calls
out for him, but he's nowhere to be found. He
starts to panic, Oh no, oh no. He looks directly
into the camera and screams, they've got Steve, and then
Carl creeps downstairs, looking through the pelvis bone of a
(38:29):
skeleton and carrying his baton for protection glasses. I think
this is something Will would have done, Like Will done that,
and then they would have been like, do that, and
that's the one they would have used.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
That seems like.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
He calls out for Erkele and searches the room for
any signs. Then he sees something. It's a large white
sheet covering something that looks like a sofa chair. Carl
reaches for the sheet, terrified that he'll find Erkele dead underneath.
He pulls it off and we hear a woman scream
it's a creepy skeleton. Carl lets out a dramatic cry,
and the door starts to creak open behind him. Thinking
it might be Arkle, Carl slowly walks to it and
sticks his head outside. Then bam, a skeleton falls onto
(39:07):
his head. Carl screams in horror as he shakes the
bones off. Then he hears noises coming from the kitchen.
Now he's angry if they touch my dove bars. Dove
bars are delicious. He storms into the room to find Arkle.
Slows and scaring ahead.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Blinds is the only commentary I means, are delicious, delicious, and.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
That's what Carl walks on the.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
You're welcome. Carl asks what have they done to him?
The thunder and lightning get more aggressive, and Carl looks
very scared. The lights go out, and the lightning lets
us see small snippets of Carl, wide eyed, yelling what
a terrible, awful night? When will this ever end? The
lights turn on, and now Stevel and Carl's batter right
behind him, standing on the dining table. Carl's bad announces
(40:02):
very soon, one soul down, one to go. Stevel now
speaks in Erkele's human voice, don't I look pretty in
a human soul? Carl grabs Stevel, pulling him off the table.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Well, is in the dummy?
Speaker 1 (40:18):
Ercles in the dummy?
Speaker 2 (40:19):
But then why is the dummy still evil? Like at
this point they should want to save the dummy?
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Yeah, Carl Grass, Carl gret pulling him off the table. Well,
now that you have a soul, why don't you stop
being evil?
Speaker 2 (40:41):
I want to use the film award guys always on.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
Dancing with.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
A Lace, Dancing with the Stars four digits we've all
accomplished this.
Speaker 3 (41:01):
Oh, I got something.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
I graduated with Latin honors from Columbia.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
Guys, this.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Is what gets you.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
I graduated magna CUMLOADI from fuller time.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Okay, dove bars are good, they are. That's what I
got to that conversation. I graduated in high school barely.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Stevel explains, still in Erkele's voice, I'm still evil, only
now I feel guilty about it. Carl's Bad chimes in,
I can't wait to get my soul and hit the
road to Vegas. Carl looks at him in disgust, but
Carl's Bad is reveling in it. He tells Carl to
freeze while he sucks out his soul. Carl warns him,
You're never gonna get my soul. I'm gonna fight you
to the death. Stevel and Carl's Bad declare war, and
(41:43):
when Carl reaches for Erkele, the dummies pounce. Carl's Bad
jumps onto his back while Stevel clings to his leg.
Carl can't shake them off. He begs, can't we just
get along? Carl's Bad bites his nose in response. Erkele
is still sitting in the chair looking completely empty. When
Carl is finally able to throw Carl's bad through the
glass window, then he grabs Stevel and shucks him out
the window too. The audience applauds, and Carl grabs Erkele's hand.
(42:06):
They've got to get out of there. Erkele says nothing
as Carl drags him through the house like a zombie,
but once at the front door, Erkele pulls away. Carl
wants to know what's going on, and Erkele's face goes
sinister as a green light shines on him. In a
very deep, stevil voice. A now very different looking Erkele asks,
what's the rush? A horrified Carl shouts no, no, as
(42:26):
Erkele shoots green laser beams out of his eyes and
into Carl's soaking out his soul.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
Both evil, So Rkle, the body and and Stevel are
somehow now both evil, even though one of them is
supposed to have soul.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
Right right, And then we slowly fade out of the
dream sequence. Carl's room, Carl is in bed, screaming.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
Discussing, warns like right right, okay, So then Stevel.
Speaker 1 (42:56):
Carl is in bed screaming, not my soul. No, not
my dovebar, there's no. He jumps out of bed and
sprints out the door. See the reason we don't have
to discuss it is because it's a dream, and you know,
you don't have to make yeah, right, nothing has to.
Speaker 3 (43:11):
Make like cheeseburger house in French Fries.
Speaker 1 (43:13):
Totally exactly.
Speaker 2 (43:14):
That's except and then there was Sean, who is a
dream I know, and it's a good one. Yeah, has
actual character relationship, you know, has a point.
Speaker 3 (43:22):
Yeah, this is this is just a yeah, it's a
the Winslow's living room, Erkele is sitting on the couch
laughing with the decorative skeleton, who he calls a great listener.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
It falls limp on the couch and response a careful
Karl slowly walks down the stairs, still shaking off the nightmare.
Erkele asks if he'd like any of the carmel covered squid.
He shakes his head, it admits he's just had the
worst nightmare of his life. Erkle guesses, was it the
one where you have to frisk nell Carter, which is
a I think a fat.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Joke, I guess, so, yeah, or give me a break joke.
Speaker 2 (43:56):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (43:57):
I don't get Carter, give me a break. I don't
I think must just yet.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
Why would a nightmare beds? Yeah, just that she's a
larger word.
Speaker 3 (44:04):
I thought, that's my guess. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (44:06):
Carl says it was even worse than that one. This
time he had a dream about Stevel. He tells Erkel
about Carl's bad and the two puppets trying to steal
their souls. It made me realize I should have never
made fun of your nightmare. Erkele's shocked. Really, Carl continues,
I should have encouraged you to talk about it that way.
It wouldn't have seemed so scary. Rkele thanks him for
the kindness. As Carl begins to walk away, Erkele follows
(44:27):
after him. Have I ever told you about the nightmare
where I was locked in a cheese factory but I
had no nose, And then Myra showed up and she
wanted to give me a kiss, but I had no lips.
Then I tried to run home, but I had no feet.
Erkele goes on and on and on, and Carl again
looks directly into the camera, regretting his prior words of
dream related encouragement. And then my mother showed up, but
she was wearing velvet boxer shorts. Carl turns away from Rkele,
(44:50):
walking upstairs without a peep, but Erkele still follows. Carl,
still detailing his other nightmares, like when he was milk
fed veal chop engaged to an elderly lamb. Chop laughs
and the credits roll, and then we're in the tag
in Las Vegas. We see various nineties Vegas hotels and
a sign that reads now appearing in the oak room
Stevel and Carl's Bad. The two dummies walk onto stage
(45:12):
wearing green and red sequined tailcoats paired with sparkly gold
bow ties and cumber buns. They think the audience for
the warm welcome, and Stevell admits it's not easy being
the short, and Carl's Bad asks why Stevel answers, because
you're always the last guy to know when it rains.
The audience groans, so Stevel tries again. He tells them
I was dating this female puppet once, and Carl's Bad
(45:32):
asks why'd you stop? Stevel says, because she cheated on
me with a Gi Joe doll. Now the audience booze
and the dummies can't believe it is this thing on
Carl's Bad asks what are you people? Mannequins? A man
heckles back, No, but you are. Stevel asks him to
repeat that in the parking lot, and Carl's Bad threatens,
we'll rip your heart out. The audience starts to boo
(45:53):
even louder, and Carl's Bad tells Stevel they really hate you.
Stevel asks me, what do you mean me? Carl's Bad's
says he has all the funny lines and he's blowing them,
but Stevell blames it on his bad setups. They start
to wrestle each other on stage, falling to the floor
and ending with Stevel choking Carl's Bad out as the
final credits role. Thank you all for joining us for
