Steve (00:00):
Dan is like, oh boy,
he's up to something. I didn't pull
it off. No, Dan, you didn't.

Leif (00:08):
As Serena like, what was that about?

Steve (00:11):
I don't know. I should have called
Blair.

Leif (00:23):
Hey, Upper East Siders and all, you scare Gandal loving listeners out
there. You just tuned into the non judging breakfast pod
where the coffee is strong, the waffles are fresh,
and the gossip is hotter than ever. My name is
Leif and I'm your seasoned Gossip Girl veteran.

Steve (00:38):
And I'm Steve. I'm the newbie, the greenhorn,
the. I don't know, Leif. What are we calling the. The new
kid when we're this far in?

Leif (00:45):
Well, I'm not too sure, but let's just hope your family didn't make its
money in investment banking.

Steve (00:51):
Leaf, sometimes I think that you're just pushing me away because you
know I'm the one that can hurt you.

Leif (00:56):
That might be true.

Steve (00:58):
So here's the deal, folks. Leaf has been a fan of Gossip
Girl from the very beginning. And I'm diving in for the
first time. And together we're your dynamic
duo, bringing you all your drama, romance, and
sometimes questionable fashion choices of this
iconic 2007 series.

Leif (01:15):
Grab your cocktails and magnifying glasses because each
week we're dissecting each juicy detail of the
show one episode at a time. We'll
connect the dots, uncover those sneaky little Easter
eggs, and of course, serve up some piping hot behind the
scenes tea. And expect some iconic fandom moments
too, because what's a deep dive without a little drama?

Steve (01:35):
And since we are all about inclusivity here at
the non judging breakfast pod, go ahead and
grab a seat at the non judging breakfast table
and go ahead and grab some coffee or a,
mimosa. Or go ahead and call up Chuck's dealer.
And let's go ahead and dive into this.

Leif (01:52):
so as of this recording, we've watched two more
episodes of Good, Cop, Bad Cop 4 and
5. Are you caught up?

Steve (02:00):
I watched 4 5. They're not
releasing them until a week later now
on Hulu. So you either have to watch it live, at
least the last one. I had to. I didn't watch it
live. and then it didn't get released right away. I am
caught up on number four four, which
is the one that you originally had said.

(02:20):
Make sure to watch this one.

Leif (02:22):
Yeah, because we have the rant of Blair
or sorry, Lou Lou,
ranting about waffles.

Steve (02:29):
Ah, yes, I. And. And
I. I don't know if I Would have picked up on
it if you actually. No, I would have, because at
the end of her rant, I was like,
oh, wow. Just like Gossip Girl. Oh, that's what
Leif was talking about. But it was
like. Was it intentional?

(02:49):
It felt a little like
a shout out. It did so.

Leif (02:55):
And there's more. Gossip Girl
Easter eggs in episode five.

Steve (02:59):
Oh, I cannot wait. I am really
enjoying this show.

Leif (03:03):
So one is kind of representing season one
when her and Jenny broke out,
Eric out of the Ostrov Center.

Steve (03:10):
Oh, right. Yeah.

Leif (03:11):
And like that scene at the counter, she basically
recreates that scene.

Steve (03:15):
Oh, nice.

Leif (03:17):
And then also she goes by the pseudonym
Claire, which
is what people always do.

Steve (03:24):
Which is her, not her. Which is her
pseudonym when she wants to hide stuff. Which
again, she's only done once so far
in season one that I've seen and
you want.

Leif (03:36):
So if Dan's right, he always gives
characters, like, stupid names that
are obvious. So who.

Steve (03:42):
Right.

Leif (03:43):
Charlie Trout. Charlie Trout, Sabrina
and Claire.

Steve (03:47):
Claire.

Leif (03:47):
Claire Carlisle is Claire's name in
dance writing.

Steve (03:53):
Oh, that's awesome.

Leif (03:59):
What is it now? We also received the tips.
I want to set us a tip. Nonjudging.
breakfastpodmail.com.

Steve (04:06):
Yes, I saw this. I started reading
it, realized that I should not be reading it, and
immediately contacted Leif.
I'm like the good kid who finds his dad's
porn. Nope, I'm not watching
this. Dad, you left this out.

Leif (04:23):
It reads, dear non judging breakfast pod,
I hope you're doing well. This is Eden from the Discord
group. First off, thank you so much for the amazing
podcast. As a gen zer with deep love
for all things 90s and 2000s, I'm always
on the lookout for a new pop culture podcast about my favorite
shows. I have to mention, I also love

(04:44):
all your Buffy references. I have a lot of thoughts about
the show and have been wanting to share them for a while
now that you're on season three. The now, this is where we
omit and it's about. It's about episodes coming up in
about four episodes. So we will bring that back
when we get to that episode they finish off
with. Many people write Gossip Girl
off as a mindless teen drama with some, inconsistencies in

(05:07):
writing and quality, which is valid, but only true fans
are allowed to critique it. Lol. However,
there is also something so enigmatic,
enchanting, and endlessly fascinating about this
show. I really appreciate you guys giving it the level of
discussion it deserves. As a former English
slash cinema double major, I live

(05:27):
for this Type of, analysis teen shows, and
especially girly teen shows absolutely
deserve deep, nuanced conversations.
This was so fun. Please feel free to share my thoughts on
the pod if you like. All the best, Eden.

Steve (05:42):
First of all, Eden, thank you.

Leif (05:44):
Yeah, thanks for writing in.

Steve (05:45):
Yeah. And that's very, very
touching to hear that. To hear that that's how
you're viewing, hearing from
us. Because we often have the
question of why are you doing this? And why are two
middle aged men watching
this teen drama that is
aimed towards teenage girls?

(06:07):
And we really stand by the fact that for
one, entertainment is supposed to be for everybody
and we have
other perspectives and so we really
appreciate you
hearing our perspective.

Leif (06:23):
Definitely thanks for writing in Eden. And also
if you have seen the whole series,
check out their YouTube channel,
NostalgiaEdit. they do Gossip
Girl edits.

Steve (06:36):
Oh, awesome.

Leif (06:38):
But lots of spoilers.

Steve (06:40):
I will watch that in a couple
years when we are done
this. But, I will definitely shout you
out. So thank you once again. Also,
I love the Gen Z
love of the 90s
and 2000s and
even a lot of millennial

(07:02):
friends that
our friend Dave Shields once
said to me. I'm so envious that you were there when
Nevermind came out, that you picked it up
off of the shelf at the store
and bought it and when 10
came out and when all of these

(07:22):
other big cultural things were happening.
And I think back of like, man, I listened to
the first Black Sabbath album and I'm like, who are the people
that sat this on their record player for the first
time? So there is that
generational nostalgia that I really
appreciate. so again,
thank you for really making me think about

(07:45):
our podcast, which is really what that email did.
It really made me think
about the non judging breakfast pod
and how we're viewed. And again, we just
really appreciate it.

Leif (07:58):
Yes. And one last thing before we get
into the episode. Did we already talk about the thing with
Juliet Landau, and podcasting?

Steve (08:07):
I don't think so.

Leif (08:08):
Have you heard about what's been going on with that at all?

Steve (08:10):
no, I did not. I
think I knew that she had a
podcast.

Leif (08:17):
Yeah, she started a podcast
with two fans
basically, and then pulled a power
play and kicked them out.

Steve (08:28):
Damn.

Leif (08:29):
And then rebranded it with the name
of another podcast that already existed.

Steve (08:35):
So. So now she's on a
copyright infringement or, you know, intellectual
property infringement.
Yeah.

Leif (08:44):
And yeah.

Steve (08:45):
Oh, damn.

Leif (08:46):
And has been very dismissive when the, Because the person is like
in fandom on Reddit and
like he's. I think it's a he or
they, he, she or whatever.
they, they are going after, like, not going
out, like, just like polite emails and stuff and dms
and she's been like, very dismissive.

Steve (09:07):
That's. That's insane. Yeah, I had
no idea any of that was going on. I did hear that she
was starting a podcast, but I didn't catch any of
the. Any of this drama surrounding
it.

Leif (09:19):
We are here to talk about Gossip.

Steve (09:21):
Girl today though, indeed.

Leif (09:23):
Season three, Episode five Rufus
Getting Married.

Steve (09:28):
Not Drufus Getting Married
Originally Air Date.

Leif (09:33):
October 12, 2009 and ah, the
title is based on a movie called Rachel Getting
Married. I. I heard of it. I
never saw it. Have you seen it?

Steve (09:43):
No, I, I never heard of it either.

Leif (09:45):
Based on the title. I, I had always written it off as just
like a generic romantic comedy,
but from the description, that's not what it sounds
like. A young woman who has been
in and out of rehab for the past 10 years returns
home for the weekend for her sister's
wedding. It's, starring Anne Hathaway,
but it's also directed by Jonathan

(10:07):
Demm, who is best known for
Silence of the Lambs and Philadelphia.

Steve (10:14):
Okay, so that made me a little.

Leif (10:17):
Bit interested in it.

Steve (10:18):
Yeah, I'm a little interested in it. It sounds
dark.

Leif (10:21):
Yeah.

Steve (10:22):
So, yeah, I'm
a little interested.

Leif (10:26):
Anyone see it? Write in and tell us more about it.
This episode was written by
Layla Gerstein. She had,
previously written season two, episode
22, Southern Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

Steve (10:41):
Right in there.

Leif (10:42):
The Gabriel era.

Steve (10:43):
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's a tough time to be a writer
on the show. It's the Gabriel era,
but I don't think
I remember giving that a high grade. I think that one
was lower for
me. I know I didn't like the Gabriel
stuff.

Leif (11:03):
You think when he was on set, do you think they had a huge, ah,
human body parts at craft services?

Steve (11:09):
I was thinking that the
meat tray was just laid out like the Operation
Guy.

Leif (11:17):
Episode directed by Ron
Fortunato. This is his first of two
times in the director's chair, but he was director of
photography for 47 episodes.

Steve (11:27):
Oh, I wonder if it was, Oh, shit. We need
someone to direct this.

Leif (11:32):
Probably.

Steve (11:33):
Can we get. Yeah. Oh, you. You know this. You
know what? We're doing enough. Can you fill
in?

Leif (11:39):
yeah, he does that like, once in a while, but he's
mostly cinematographer or
directory.

Steve (11:46):
Yeah. So it just sounds like. Yeah. Or
maybe he was. He shot his shot and they gave him
a chance.

Leif (11:52):
And, this is, I mean he's got one more, yeah, some point
later in the series in television, because.

Steve (11:58):
We'Ve talked about it in the writer's room, and
I know that it's also kind of true for movies to
a degree. How much of directing is directing by
committee? Or is it there's one director who
is there directing the
entire episode, typically?

Leif (12:14):
Oh, probably a lot of committee because they shoot,
like, on different parts of the city at the same
time.

Steve (12:21):
Yeah. Okay. That's exactly what I was thinking.

Leif (12:23):
There's definitely an A and a B team.

Steve (12:25):
Exactly. So even though the director
that's getting credit for it, that
person is probably a director
in other scenes and other episodes and things like
that is kind of my thinking.

Leif (12:38):
There's also always at least one writer on set. Not necessarily
even the writer who wrote the episode, but there's always at least one writer
on set.

Steve (12:45):
Right. If they need edits, if there's something that's not
working.

Leif (12:50):
Why don't you go ahead and give us that very short Vulture
recap?

Steve (12:54):
Yes. Thank you. Vulture. What rhymes
with Sonic Youth and is also music to
our ears. Truth, friends.
And that was what we heard a lot of on last
night's Gossip Girl. Vanessa finally told
Dan the truth about Scott. Carter came clean to
Serena about a really revolting thing he did to

(13:14):
his ex girlfriend. Lily revealed that
beneath her porcelain veneer and mannered
comments about the Bolognese,
she's just a lady full of wonder.
Complicated, runny nosed feelings. And
Dorota revealing her stunning,
creamy decolletage.
Delicate. Delicate.

Leif (13:36):
It was nice seeing Dorota out of her uniform.

Steve (13:39):
Yeah. Yeah. Ah, and she looked
beautiful. and, ah, we'll talk about that,
you know, more. But yeah, it was really.
Yeah. I love Derog.

Leif (13:51):
Let's get into it.

Steve (13:51):
Yep.

Leif (13:52):
Act one begins, as always, with a Gossip
Girl monologue.
Some say love is a river
Some say love is a silly song
Some say love is all around us it lifts
us up where we belong Some say
love is hearing laughter in the rain but on the Upper
east side, we all know love is a

(14:14):
pain.

Steve (14:17):
Rufus, you have your own house. Like,
why are you waking up on the couch? Why would you sleep
on the couch? Like, go home.

Leif (14:25):
Well, it's not his home anymore. He, like, basically have to ask
permission if they had to stay there.
Stan, he let
Dan branch out, you know. Yeah, he's too cheap to,
you know, buy him a door. Pay for his door, Pay for his door.
I'll go live my girlfriend so you can have that. Your own
college experience.

(14:49):
Love Is in the air. We get a quick montage of
happy couples. Serena and Carter, Nate and
Bri, Dan and Olivia, Chuck and
Blair, and Rufus and Lily. Yeah,
the video of Dan typing is
definitely a meme gif. Oh, yeah,
with the little chromebook on top of the.

(15:10):
Is that a paper stand or something?

Steve (15:12):
Yeah, Yeah, I think it was a trash can.

Leif (15:14):
The trash can.

Steve (15:15):
Yeah, it could have been a newspaper stand.

Leif (15:18):
That's definitely a meme gif. I, don't know if you've ever seen that.

Steve (15:21):
I haven't, but I'm not surprised.

Leif (15:24):
Just like, cackling typing in the middle of the
street.
Yeah, I do like to touch the over if it's like,
Cracky is back as he gets up.
I'm so old.

Steve (15:39):
This is why we don't go back on tour.

Leif (15:44):
Carter and Serena are having breakfast at Blair's house, and
we have a quick exposition on why Carter wasn't around
last week. We also get to hear two spoiled rich
kids bemoaning being cut off by their parents.
Carter encourages Serena to talk with her mom.
Serena asks Carter to go to have breakfast with her friends
and get some intel on Nate's new girlfriend.

(16:04):
When Carter hears the Buckley name, he
quickly makes up an excuse on why he can't
attend.

Steve (16:11):
Yeah.

Leif (16:13):
Why are you at, Blair's?

Steve (16:14):
That was weird.

Leif (16:17):
That was the end of last episode.

Steve (16:19):
Yeah. Yes. I still just thought
it was odd because where else?

Leif (16:23):
I mean, I guess she could get a hotel room, but she's cut off, so she can't get a
hotel.

Steve (16:27):
Yeah. Is she cut off, or is
she just being stubborn?
I've never heard Lily say, I'm not gonna.
I'm canceling your credit card if you leave here.

Leif (16:38):
That would be a Lily move.

Steve (16:41):
It would. And the fact that she
hasn't done it is just all the more evidence
that Lily isn't, To me, I feel like Sabrina
is being stubborn and I'm working for
myself and not taking my mom's money
rather than being cut off, if that makes
sense. In other words, I think Serena could

(17:01):
have gotten a hotel room.

Leif (17:04):
But no one's living at Blair's house, though.

Steve (17:06):
yeah. Yeah. Oh,
yeah, because we haven't seen Eleanor. Yeah.

Leif (17:11):
she fought from Paris or somewhere.

Steve (17:12):
Probably. There's fashion stuff happening at some place in the
world. It's fashion o'clock somewhere.

Leif (17:19):
Dan and Vess are discussing Georgina, Olivia
and Scott with. We find out that Olivia is in
Tokyo.

Steve (17:27):
Yes, Olivia's in
Tokyo filming a movie with Orlando
Bloom.

Leif (17:33):
I, think are. Are they just a, like, press tour.

Steve (17:36):
Or doing a press tour. Right, right. They're on a press
tour in Japan. The
sashimi late. Sashimi
later, was it. What did he say?
His stupid sushi puns. But also, we
learned that he can't use his own IMs
because every time he logs in, Georgina
jumps on and starts trying to talk.

Leif (17:58):
Yeah. Vanessa walks into a
coffee shop alone, and Georgina sneaks up behind
her.

Steve (18:04):
I thought Vanessa's reaction was a little straight.
It was a little overreacting. Dan was
like, yeah, Georgina pops in and DMs me
every time I log in. I don't think that
that necessarily is over the top.
We all know Georgina's crazy. We know that
Georgina is over the top. But I thought

(18:24):
Vanessa's reaction was un.
Vanessa. Like, I don't think that it really
represented how Vanessa
tries to treat people.

Leif (18:34):
Yeah. To see with, Georgina sneaks up on her.

Steve (18:37):
That's what I'm talking about is when she's like.
When she's like, georgina,
you're here. It was, of course,
Vanessa, why she's coming back.

Leif (18:49):
I felt there was, like, weird, like, sexual tension there.

Steve (18:52):
I don't.

Leif (18:53):
Especially the way Georgina came up and, like, just like.
Like rubbed her arm when she came up behind her.

Steve (18:58):
Yeah. That. I. I don't not
see it.

Leif (19:05):
Chuck and Blair are having brunch with Nate and Brie.
Blair is being kind of setting towards Brie. Bri
perks up at the mention of Carter, which Chuck notices
immediately.

Steve (19:17):
I love the line of, the
vampire riding in on a broomstick. Vampires don't
ride broomsticks. We'll leave it to Georgina Sparks to
start a mutant strain.
And I know women, and we're not that nice.
When Bri walked away.

Leif (19:34):
And yeah, Blair is staunchly anti
Southerner.

Steve (19:37):
Very much. I thought it was
interesting when
Brie ordered in what I'm I'm going to assume
is Mandarin. What? She
ordered in another language.
And Blair corrected the
order. Blair said
about what? The things that Nate wouldn't like

(19:59):
after she ordered, which I don't believe that
Blair is fluent in Mandarin
or whatever language was
ordered in. But she's been to these restaurants
enough that she knows what it is and knows how to order
it. So I thought that was.
I thought that was a really

(20:20):
Blair power play to do,
but get over it, baby.
Yes. Yeah.

Leif (20:28):
You had your chance with that. You turned him down.

Steve (20:31):
Yeah. Also, though Brie sucks.
She's not wrong that Brie sucks. She's wrong
in why she thinks Brie sucks.

Leif (20:39):
Yes. Lily, is looking at an
old wedding album when Serena walks in. Lily is
still blaming Rufus for Serena not going to Brown.
Jenny and Eric warn Serena, that Rufus and Lily
might be in real trouble.

Steve (20:53):
Yeah, Lily is blaming Rufus for Lily
going away. That's
literally what she says. I went
away. I'm not mad at you. I went
away and left you with a man who
doesn't get it. So who are you mad
at? Lily? Why are you mad at Rufus?
And I mean, as we know,

(21:16):
we find out later, Rufus nails it in the,
on, the fucking head. Rufus slaps her in the face
with some love knowledge. But we'll
get there. I, I will go on record
as saying until the very end of
this, I fucking hated the Rufus
Lily back and forth stupid
bullshit. Grow up, you

(21:38):
fucking children.

Leif (21:41):
Indeed. But Rufus is on another
island, visiting Dan at the Brooklyn loft. Rufus is
such a sad sack that Dan feels obligated to help, so he
calls. Ser. I smell a paratrap scheme
incoming.

Steve (21:53):
Rufus has no poker face. I
want to play high stakes poker with Rufus
Humphrey because, you know, he
walks in just. I'm just going to walk into
the house and dump my entire mood on my kid,
let them know how unhappy I am and hint at
why. And they'll just have to get it because I'm going to

(22:14):
be passive aggressive toward
the people who, did nothing to me. Yes,
classic Rufus.

Leif (22:22):
Classic. Georgina is sitting at a
cafe with Vanessa, desperate for information on,
why Dan won't call her back. When V tells G
that Dan is dating someone else, Georgina
blackmails V into helping her break up Dan and
Olivia.

Steve (22:37):
I love that she just
drops everything and goes full
crazy. And you see it in her
face. I think it's really some of Michelle
Trachtenberg's best work on the show. When
you just visibly see her
alter her face and just. Well,

(22:57):
then you're going to break them up.

Leif (23:00):
Yeah, it's almost like a spring just like pops out in
her.

Steve (23:05):
Yeah, like, like all of the meds are
just flushed out of her system. And
we are a go for crazy.

Leif (23:14):
We, end the act with a Gossip Girl
blast.
Some say love is a secret you keep secret,
but Dargina sparks, love's always a
battlefield.

Steve (23:27):
I said to you before
we started that the episode grade on this
episode dropped every time I watched it.
And there are like,
every episode, there are the storylines that I really enjoy and the
ones that I don't. And this is one that I really, I liked the
Georgina Dance and Vanessa
storyline throughout. I hated the

(23:49):
Rufus and Lily stuff. I hated the Bree
stuff. I hated the
other dumb stuff, but I
loved the. This whole scene in
the. In this is the
phone call, right? When are we not there
yet? Oh, my bad.

Leif (24:09):
We get into Act 2 with
Georgina coaching in the background. Vanessa
poorly attempts to lie to Dan about Olivia
cheating. Dan thinks Vanessa might be
stoned. Based on a list of reasons Georgina fed
to Vanessa, Dan is surely going to suspect
that Vanessa is in love with him.

Steve (24:27):
This phone call is so
fucking funny. It's so
dumb. It's such a bad
ploy. But it was just
so, It was so
Georgina, and it just fit. And
it just. The way Vanessa was going along with
it because she was being blackmailed and

(24:50):
it was just making me
laugh the whole time.

Leif (24:54):
Crazy hijinks.

Steve (24:55):
Yes, it was really fun.
Crazy hijinks.

Leif (25:00):
And apparently getting people to dump a celebrity is
commonplace for Georgina.

Steve (25:04):
Yes, yes. I've
done this before.
Here. It's really easy.

Leif (25:13):
Let the Parent Trap commence. The Humphrey
and van der Woodsen children get Lily and Rufus to sit down together
at a diner.

Steve (25:20):
I will do pretty much anything my kids
ask me to do. Right.
I love my kids. I'll do anything for my kids.
If my kids are saying, hey, we really
want you to work this stuff
out, I'm at least gonna give it a
shot. I'm gonna hear my kids
seeing the importance of it, and they've done

(25:43):
that. If they've heard Robin and I
upset about something with each other, there have
been times that one of the kids will say, hey,
and kind of jump in, and
it's important to them that they work this out. And
that kind of really struck me that
you're not just working it out for each other.
Here's a whole family that you've brought together that

(26:05):
wants to stay together. And
that really struck me.

Leif (26:10):
But, yeah, gotta get the Parent
Trap scheme going.

Steve (26:14):
Well, I'm really saying
that I felt like the Parent Trap
scheme should have meant more to the parents, that they
should have reflected on how much it meant to their kids
for them to at least talk
it, talk it out.

Leif (26:30):
Oh, it did for a minute.

Steve (26:31):
They, They did for a minute. You're right.

Leif (26:34):
And then they start fighting.

Steve (26:35):
Yes. And it's. So
you guys know all of this stuff
just. Yeah.

Leif (26:42):
It's the same fight they've been having since season one.

Steve (26:44):
Yeah, one, exactly. It.
It hasn't stopped.

Leif (26:50):
It's the same fight that Dan Sarita keep having as
well.

Steve (26:53):
Yeah. And here's the thing. Now that you're married, you're going to keep
having all, you might still keep having this fight, but the thing
is the same. Just
the whole fight is basically, get over
yourselves.

Leif (27:08):
Take the leap.

Steve (27:09):
Yeah.

Leif (27:10):
yeah. Definitely a rare good episode for
Rufus.

Steve (27:14):
Yes. Yeah.

Leif (27:16):
Chuck is giving Blair an elaborate
massage when she tells him that Carter is at
her mom's penthouse. Chuck leaves Blair with
some blue balls and to presumably pass that
info on.

Steve (27:28):
To Brie, future NASCAR mom
Brie.
Blair.

Leif (27:36):
Dan is walking with Eric and Jenny, who both agree that
Vanessa is definitely in love with Dan and that Dan needs
to tell her how she feels about Olivia. So this is where the
retcon kind of starts that I mentioned back in season
one, where in season one it was Dan
who said that he loved.

Steve (27:52):
Vanessa before she went away.

Leif (27:54):
Yeah. And now it's. Now it's like kind of
reversing that.

Steve (27:58):
Yes. And Eric and Jenny are kind
of. Although they're also
seemingly incorrect too. Right.
So Jenny and Eric are piecing all of
this together for him. But I
love how quick they come to the conclusion
too, because of the relationship Dan and
Vanessa have always had. So I,

(28:20):
I see your point about the retconning. I also
just loved how quick Eric is just like, whoa, yeah,
she's clearly in love with you. Like, duh. and then
Jenny's like, yeah, I.

Leif (28:30):
Mean, everyone knows that.

Steve (28:31):
Yeah, everyone knows that. Look at your entire fucking history. Of course
Vanessa's in love with you.

Leif (28:36):
Rufus and Lily are once again reminiscing
and it looks like things are going well until
Rufus suggests a little more low key for the
wedding. Lily blows up because Mayor
Bloomberg would be disappointed.

Steve (28:49):
Oh, here it is. Right? These two fucking idiots. I,
I thought that that whole scene happened together,
but these fucking idiots.

Leif (28:57):
Yeah, they're, they're in love with their past
selves. Like they're, they're not teenagers
anymore, but they, they want to be.

Steve (29:04):
Yeah. Yes.

Leif (29:05):
Because they, like whenever they're reminiscing, they're like, they're, they're
clicking.

Steve (29:08):
Yes.

Leif (29:09):
But then as soon as they have to start thinking about the now or the future, it's
like they start fighting. Yeah, I
guess maybe they're just feeling old, they're having a midlife crisis, they're
trying to relive their youth and they're maybe not meant to be.

Steve (29:22):
I actually think it's more of a matter
of, I think that's a big part of it. Right?
That they have this nostalgia that's keeping
them together more than
where they are right now. So. Yeah, there's a
point there.

Leif (29:38):
Dan walks in on Vanessa making an Olivia and
Orlando Bloom Photoshop, Dan starts
doing a patented Dan rant about them just being
friends and trying to let her down easy. Until
Vanessa finally can't take it and tells him Georgina is
blackmailing her.

Steve (29:54):
The writing and
directing of this scene
is just. Muah. It
was perfect from the second he
walked in and catches
her. And he starts
into his whole obviously
prepared speech, everything that

(30:15):
he was thinking on his way over of how he was
gonna break it to Vanessa that this is not it. And
it just starts pouring out of his mouth.
And Vanessa realizing in.
In real time what's happening, just
starts. Wait, no, whoa. Stop. Shut
up. And just pushes back on

(30:35):
the whole thing until it finally comes out
to this really,
dramatic reveal at the end of
it that it's. Okay, fine.
Scott's your brother, and
Dan has the face.
The confused Pikachu

(30:56):
confused Pikachu face.

Leif (30:58):
I will fight back a little bit. I won't say it's perfect
writing because there's. Once you get into the
room, it's great. But why are you doing this Photoshop
with your door wide open?

Steve (31:08):
Oh, okay. I mean, I'll give you
that.

Leif (31:12):
With your back to it and headphones on.

Steve (31:15):
Yeah, so I will give you that.
It would have made more sense had Dan,

Leif (31:21):
Nice product placement, by the way.

Steve (31:22):
Had Dan knocked on the door, she didn't
answer and then walked in.

Leif (31:27):
Yeah.

Steve (31:28):
Oh, they were. Beats the headphones, I believe.

Leif (31:31):
So, yeah. We get some Sonic
playing over a monotage of Rufus and
Lily separately staring longly at the same
picture of the two of them happy. The pair
go to each other's apartments and end up having their makeup
over the phone. Looks like these two are getting
married tomorrow.

Steve (31:49):
Idiots. Oh, my God.
Stop.

Leif (31:55):
Put on those dancing shoes, kids. Looks like
we're going to the chapel. Gastro girl states as
we go into Act 3,
both the NYU minions and the new
Constance minions are at the Vander Woodson
penthouse assisting Jenny, Serena and Blair
organize a quickie wedding for Rufus and Lily.
Dorota even called the Sonic

(32:17):
Youths.

Steve (32:19):
I will forever refer to them as the Sonic
Youths from now on.
Jenny. Jenny.
Dismissing the.

Leif (32:28):
And the look between Blair and Jenny. And then
Serena, too. She notices it as well.

Steve (32:34):
Oh, my God. My par. My family are
in hedge funds, and they're all broke. You can go.

Leif (32:41):
Yeah, you're definitely in the. In the housing crisis right
now.

Steve (32:44):
Yes, but all, And it's
just that alone just
foreshadowed Jenny's
season that I'm now
waiting to get back to Constance to see what Jenny
has cooking up. Because
dark Jenny seems to be on

(33:04):
the horizon and I'm fucking here
for it. And of course I know it might.

Leif (33:09):
Be a three way war now.

Steve (33:10):
Yeah.

Leif (33:11):
Because you got, you have all three of them like looking at each other.

Steve (33:13):
Yeah, Yeah. I
also know that Jenny,
we love Jenny. We're
big fans of Jenny. I know that the
fandom doesn't always like Jenny. I know that a lot of the
fandom has a lot of Jenny hate. And
I can only assume that it comes from two
things. The whiny, teenagery stuff

(33:36):
in season one and two that I
really liked because I felt it was really
authentic to the part. But I also
have this feeling that there's shit on the horizon that she
is going to do that is going
to affect how I see
her. I feel. I've seen the
glimpse of dark Jenny. I've seen it

(33:59):
peek its head out. So I'm
really angry. I really want to see dark Jenny
now.

Leif (34:05):
It's like when she gray, like does something crazy and like the
fetus comes out a little bit.

Steve (34:09):
Yes, exactly.

Leif (34:10):
And knocks out a bunch of people.

Steve (34:12):
Exactly. That is.
Oh, exactly. That Jen
Gray.

Leif (34:19):
Ruth Madoff also gets a name drop in that scene.

Steve (34:22):
Yes, yes. I also loved
that they had, oh, they had the
minions there and when they were at the
end all being dismissed and
Serena goes, new mean girls. You go
do. And she referred to them as new mean
girls.

Leif (34:41):
Dan and vessel are at the loft. Vanessa convinces
Dan to hold Georgina off for one more day.

Steve (34:48):
Sounds like a bad idea.

Leif (34:50):
Dan, you're not the best liar.

Steve (34:52):
Yeah, this does not, yeah, war
Schemer. Call Blair. Well,
he's best with Blair. Yeah, call Blair and have
her deal with Georgina. That's who you've always
gone to. Don't, ah, try to do this on your
own because you fuck up.

Leif (35:09):
He thinks he's got the magic though.

Steve (35:12):
but not if he's not going to grab her ass.

Leif (35:17):
Lily is reading her vows to Serena.
Serena points out they are the exact same vows she used
with Klaus. Belair comes in and announces
that the mayor expedited the permits
for the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Steve (35:30):
This is where she calls them the new mean girls. It
was this scene when they were. I forgot that
there was these two different moments again. But
I love that Serena's like, you
could have read these to Klaus. You could have read
these to any of your other husbands. This is
different. This is special. This is the love of your life. This is

(35:50):
your soulmate treated that way.

Leif (35:53):
Dan is talking with Georgina. We
find out that Georgina got Poppy deported.
Dan is obviously lying about wanting to get back together with
Georgina. However, it takes him not grabbing her ass
for Georgina to be sure of it.

Steve (36:09):
I love the layers to Georgina.
She got Poppy deported.
Poppy. There was no evidence that Poppy
was anything other than an American citizen.
So how do you get an American citizen
deported? It's. I
love how much
of her character we never actually

(36:31):
see. We only hear these
stories that everyone else tells about
her. And I think that's a
really great aspect of character development,
especially for a character who is only in
three episodes at a time. And as
an English teacher teaching character development, you

(36:51):
talk about, how do you know a, character? It's what
they say. It's what they do. But one of the most
important things is what other people
say about the characters. And
I think that this show, again, we've always talked
about how they'd be great writing teachers,
and that is such great
writing to really fill out

(37:13):
and really immerse this character in the
world when she's only in and out
for scenes here and there in
a few episodes.

Leif (37:23):
And while Dan wasn't, going to grab her ass,
I'm pretty sure the food cart guy did want to.

Steve (37:29):
Oh, absolutely.

Leif (37:30):
He totally was checking out her ass as she walked by.

Steve (37:32):
Yes. 100%.
100%.
Although she did bring his attention to it.

Leif (37:40):
It's only natural to look at something when someone mentions it.

Steve (37:42):
Yes. Yes. If someone's like, oh, I just spilled
food all over my crotch, I'm like, I'm not
trying to look at your crotch. It's just that you brought my attention to
your crotch. Exactly.

Leif (37:53):
But he lingered.

Steve (37:54):
But he lingered for sure.

Leif (37:59):
Serena and Carter are having a phone conversation,
and she insists that she. He has to come to the
wedding.

Steve (38:05):
Yeah.

Leif (38:06):
After Carter and Serena hang up, Chuck walks in and
presents Carter with a choice. Come to the
wedding and be there for Serena and face the wrath of the
Buckleys. Southern justice, or take a one way
ticket, disappoint Serena and save his own
skin.

Steve (38:22):
I'm getting tired of being your travel.

Leif (38:24):
Agent, and I can't hear what you're
saying. Chuck, you're whispering.

Steve (38:30):
Where is she? Where's Rachel?
When we were watching that scene, Robin said, that
goddamn Batman voice.
But yeah, he buys. He buys.
I think he buys more tickets for Carter than he does
flowers for Blair. And we know he buys
flowers for Blair.

Leif (38:51):
Georgina is waiting at the bus stop for Scott, who's back in
town. It looks like Georgina and Scott Are going to crash
the wedding.

Steve (38:58):
Grimy, but
classic Georgina.

Leif (39:03):
You know it's coming.

Steve (39:04):
I need. Yep, I need. I. You want to fuck with me? I'm
going to drop a chaos bomb in your fucking
lap.

Leif (39:11):
Looks like the wedding song just became stormy
weather. But don't worry. Here comes the
sun. Gossip Girl leads us into
Act 4. At the wedding,
Dorota is looking pretty fly in her wedding
attire. Unfortunately, the Sonic Youths are
stuck in traffic. Blair tells Serena that
the to be patient with Carter. Brie thanks

(39:34):
Nate for inviting her. And Jenny is rocking a
purple dress and telling Eric that the wedding
setup turned out perfectly well.

Steve (39:42):
And Remember, next time, Mr. Chuck has a
chopper and rolls her eyes at Dorota,
who's panicking. Blair
heartless.

Leif (39:53):
So you mentioned things coming for
Jenny. I think this is, like the second time in a
couple episodes we've seen Jenny wearing a purple
dress. And that's. And that's not, That's not her
normal color.

Steve (40:05):
No. But it is
highly symbolic of royalty.
Purple is the royal.

Leif (40:13):
And there is someone else who likes purple a lot.

Steve (40:15):
Yes, there is. There is someone who, is
also often wearing purple.

Leif (40:20):
Blair has also been wearing purple a lot this season, though. So
Blair and Chuck are both been wearing purple a lot.

Steve (40:26):
I haven't. I haven't noticed it on Blair because Chuck, it's
been episode two. Yeah.

Leif (40:31):
But, in season three, Blair has had a couple of purple
dresses.

Steve (40:34):
Okay, that's. That's a really good.
That's a really good.

Leif (40:38):
I think this is the second one for Jenny.
Chuck and Blair bicker about Carter and
Serena.

Steve (40:45):
Yeah, it's. I thought it was
cute.

Leif (40:48):
They're bickering about external things.

Steve (40:50):
Yes. They're not fighting. and it's
about their friend and what's best for their
friend. That they don't see the same thing
being the best for their friend.
And this has a
resolution. This fight has a
resolution once Carter shows up and Chuck is
like, well, shit.

Leif (41:11):
And Brie does what she does.

Steve (41:13):
Yeah.

Leif (41:14):
It was bad for both their friends. It was about Nate and
Serena.

Steve (41:17):
Yes. Yeah.

Leif (41:19):
And their respective partners. Dan calls
Vanessa to describe his kiss with Georgina.
Totally overconfident in his acting abilities.
Oh, Dan Fletcher, Flesh your
heart.

Steve (41:34):
Yeah.

Leif (41:35):
Jenny is helping Lily get dressed, and she tells Lily
that as hard as it was to see her mom leave, she is
happy for Rufus and Lily. Lily is fretting
about her vows and tosses what she has written in
the trash.

Steve (41:48):
Grow up, Lily.
Get over it. Knock it the fuck off.

Leif (41:55):
Lily, Lily.

Steve (41:56):
Lily.

Leif (41:57):
Lily. Lily. Carter Confesses to
Serena that he has faked a relationship with a rich
woman to get them to pay off his debts and left
her at the altar. Despite
Carter's pleas that it's different with Serena.
She storms off.

Steve (42:12):
It was a shitty thing Carter did. It is
also reasonable for
Serena to put herself into the shoes
of the rich person he was trying to
rip off. Being a rich person that
he's now dating. And has
even said, can you talk to your mom about money for

(42:32):
me? So I get
sort of Serena's
initial reaction, but it was also
really shitty to just. The
other side of that is he doesn't have to tell you shit.
He could have disappeared or he could have been
like, hey, I'm in traffic, I can't

(42:53):
get to the wedding. I'll talk to you afterwards.
And ignored the whole situation. He could have found another
way out of it, but he went and he went. Full blown
honesty. So being thrown
off by it is one thing, but to just be like
you. Dude, I thought she was a little
overreacting.

Leif (43:11):
I do like the writing. again, this ties
back to the first episode of the season with Bri's story.
We get that first reveal of why she's trying to get back to
her family. Because she wasn't there to help her cousin.

Steve (43:22):
Yes.

Leif (43:23):
The altar.

Steve (43:24):
Yes.

Leif (43:24):
So it all, It all ties back together.

Steve (43:26):
Yes. Wow. Yeah, that.
I just want to reflect on that for a second because I.

Leif (43:32):
That's like. The first thing we learn about Brie.

Steve (43:34):
Is when she meets Nate. And we
do learn right away that there was something with her cousin.
Do we know that she was left at the altar and she wasn't there? Is
that what she says? Or is it just that she wasn't there for
her cousin when she needed her?

Leif (43:48):
I think they mentioned the wedding.

Steve (43:50):
I think you're right. I think you're right.
Let us know.

Leif (43:55):
Georgina shows up and tells Dan that she just
came to give Rufus and Lily a wedding
present.

Steve (44:01):
Dan is like, fuck.

Leif (44:03):
Oh, boy.

Steve (44:04):
She's up to something. I didn't pull
it off. No, Dan, you didn't.

Leif (44:09):
And Saria's like, what was that about?

Steve (44:12):
I don't know. I should have called
Blair.

Leif (44:17):
Rufes and Lily are walking together somewhere else in the
park. Lily has cold feet.

Steve (44:22):
Lily, stop being so fucking dumb.
Just stop. It's.
It's.

Leif (44:30):
I get it, though. And Rufus nailed it. She's
scared.

Steve (44:33):
Yes.

Leif (44:34):
All her previous marriages were. Were business
arrangements, basically.

Steve (44:37):
Yes. Yes. And now it's from the heart. Yeah,
I. Yes. But also just like, grow Up.

Leif (44:43):
Yeah.

Steve (44:43):
Grow up.
Ah.

Leif (44:46):
The Wedding March. Here comes the awkward pause.
Gossip Girl narrates as everyone rises up and there is
no bride or groom. Georgina exits stage right,
and Serena quickly follows after her.
Gossip Girl continues. Looks like the wedding
dress might have a runaway train.

Steve (45:03):
Yeah.

Leif (45:05):
Either party shows up at the wedding.

Steve (45:07):
Yeah. We. Well, they're both together,
arguing around the corner. Yes.

Leif (45:12):
Rufus is still trying to convince Lily to take the
leap. However, they are interrupted by Scott.
Lily tells him off. A heartbroken Scott
runs off. Georgina walks up with a crowd in
tow and drops Scott's true identity to Rufus and
Lily.

Steve (45:27):
Like I said, she just walks up,
sets a bomb down in front of them,
hits the timer for two seconds, a little delayed
blast fireball. And just, that's your kid.
And walks out and lets it just
boom. Right behind her as everyone is
just like, well, that's impossible. What does she mean

(45:48):
by that? And just fucking
masterful.

Leif (45:53):
And Gossip Girl brings us to the commercial break.
Ooh, ooh, Love child. Things don't get
any easier. Might have to move the honeymoon
suite to the Heartbreak Hotel.
Act five begins. Back for the
commercial break. Dan confirms that Scott is actually their
son. Ruse and Lily go to find their son

(46:14):
together.

Steve (46:15):
Yeah. The truth finally comes out. And
Lily realizes that hard
truth of marriage is that
when it comes to the hard stuff, you
do that shit together, you work that
stuff out together, and that's what
gets you through a marriage, is

(46:35):
doing it together. And I think that that
really hits Lily once
she recognizes how she talked to him
and how much she wished to take that
moment back.

Leif (46:49):
Yeah. Carter once again
tries to convince Serena that it's different with her.
Serena once again walks away so
heartbroken, she can't even muster up her
catchphrase.

Steve (47:02):
And she,

Leif (47:03):
You saw, she wanted to say it. She wanted to say it.

Steve (47:05):
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, it's not like she
doesn't have a past of
her own. And the whole, like,
premise of the beginning of this show is in the fact
that she has a past.
And we know Carter is well aware
of it. So why aren't you at
least talking to this guy in the midst of all

(47:27):
this? Like, why aren't you at least hearing
him out?

Leif (47:31):
Carter approaches Bri, who is flanked by a
pair of douche bros wearing jeans and sports
coats. The two men are brothers of her
cousin, the woman Carter left at the altar.
Carter lets her know that they can take him from his
hotel later. Chuck, as is his custom,
is watching the scene unfold from a distance.

Steve (47:51):
Yeah. Yes.

Leif (47:55):
Interesting. Bit of tribute with this scene.
She mentions they were defensive linemen for
Arnett Mead.

Steve (48:01):
Yes.

Leif (48:02):
Does that mean anything to you?

Steve (48:04):
Well, Arnett Mead,
I mean, I just assumed it was a Texas university.

Leif (48:10):
There is, no school or
town named Arnett
Meadow. However
it is. Sorry, in the real world there's
this. But in the show Friday Night
Lights, it is the Dylan Panther's biggest
rival.

Steve (48:28):
Okay, that is
really, that's really
cool. I really dig that.
So it's a little
Easter egg there. Yes. That's really cute.
That is. It sort of feeds into
the. What's the. Is it the

(48:48):
Newhart theory that all shows
are actually a dream
of Bob Newhart or something like that? Because you can kind
of Kevin Bacon every
show back to that one in some
way.

Leif (49:03):
Georgina is helping herself to wedding cake
and an annoyed looking Dana Blair walk by and
Georgina makes a phone call. Blair makes a phone call.

Steve (49:11):
Blair makes a phone call.

Leif (49:12):
Yes, I walk by Tran.

Steve (49:16):
I love that it's Dan and Blair and then
you see her pop up the phone just, just staring
daggers in the back of her head. And
also I love that Georgina's sitting there just
chowing down like no one else is going to eat this.
Just. I know, like I know what I did.

Leif (49:33):
Just I think she's eating specifically the wedding
cake.

Steve (49:37):
Yeah. Yes, she was eating the wedding cake and but
again with such an attitude of like, yeah, I know what I did.

Leif (49:45):
Rufus and Lily are searching Chinatown for Scott,
still wearing their wedding clothes. Rufus tells Lily
that she is breaking his heart.

Steve (49:52):
Read her like a fucking book.
He just read her up and down.
You want to run away from me because
unlike all your other marriages, I can
hurt you. And
that's again, one of those marriage things that
I really take to heart is

(50:13):
that there are women that I dated
before Robin and after my ex
wife and I was looking to find
the person that could hurt me,
if that makes sense. That I wanted
to marry somebody because I
knew she could hurt me. Because

(50:33):
that's the kind of love. And I know
the other side of it is she won't, but
if she did something, yes, she
could hurt me. And trusting that she
won't is also that really powerful part
of love and marriage.
So I reflect on that in this.

(50:53):
And I really liked Rufus's whole
great writing, bad acting.
Rufus act sincere. I more and more
don't like Matt Settle as
an actor because when he tries
to do the dramatic stuff, it's just so breathy
and dramatic. And

(51:14):
especially when it's up against Kelly Rutherford
who just fucking Owns
everything she does.

Leif (51:21):
Yeah. Yeah, poor Matt.

Steve (51:23):
Yeah, poor Matt.

Leif (51:24):
Rufus spots Scott and chases him down.
Lily and Rufus declare their love for each other and their love for
their children, including Scott. They all hug
each other. And Gossip Girl brings us to the
commercial. Spotted.
A family reunited. It feels so
good.

Steve (51:43):
I watched this scene three times. I
cried at this scene three times I cried
at Lily. And Lily saying that all I thought
about for the past 20 years is holding our child in our
arms. And Kelly Rutherford, again,
just sells every
emotion on her fucking face and in
her body and in her gestures. And you

(52:05):
just feel what she is
saying. And that whole
moment just is so
powerful and so touching. And
for them all to hug at the end.
And you're now welcome
into part of our family again.
And Scott's reason for running away.

(52:28):
I thought you gave me up
because you didn't love each other and then realized you
did and wanted to be a part of
that. And now I see that you don't.
And. And now I see this. This bullshit
that you guys are fucking doing. I'm
out. So for him to then

(52:49):
welcome them back, too, I just felt all of it
was so honest and open.

Leif (52:56):
Yeah, definitely a great scene.

Steve (52:57):
Yes. When I talk
about this episode
losing points, the more I watched it,
a big part of it is I feel like
this phantom menaced me in the fact
that most of the
episode I kind of felt was a little slow
and dragged, but the end, I thought was

(53:20):
just fucking gold. M. And
I feel that way about the Phantom Menace. You have,
like, I've always felt there's these two
hours of just, I think.

Leif (53:30):
Like, the second two thirds of the movie is actually pretty good.

Steve (53:34):
I like the pod racing scene, and I
like everything after they, I like
the battles, the battle scenes. Except for the Anakin
in space, the
Darth Maul, the pod racing odds, like, about, like,
an hour and a half in general.
I felt like I really loved that movie when I first

(53:55):
saw it because I loved the end more than I
loved the rest of it. Like, I felt like the
end made me go. I saw it in the theater five times,
and after the fifth, I was like, no, I really don't like
this movie that much. I was so into it
every time, but every time, the grade just kind of
dropped because of everything that led up to

(54:15):
this spectacular finale.
Except for Jar Jar. Except. Except for
Anakin.

Leif (54:22):
Let's, get into the epilogue. At the
Loft, in a small private ceremony,
Ruis and Lily exchange their vows with Kim
Gordon serving as the officiant. Everyone
Hugs I. Did
you think we were going to get that?

Steve (54:38):
I, I, I. It's funny, when I first saw her, I
was like, wait, I know who that is.
And couldn't place it with
despite all of the
drops leading up to it. And then when they started
singing, I was like, oh, it's fucking Kim
Gordon of the
Sonic Youths.

Leif (55:01):
Yeah.

Steve (55:02):
And it's funny, I am not a Sonic
Youths fan, necessarily. On, the
last episode, we talked about recording a double
episode, and the whole way up, I listened to the Sonic
Youths because I wanted to
just kind of reminisce of what it is about
them that I didn't really like. To be honest,

(55:22):
that the last time I tried to give them a deep
dive, I only got a little way through and just
wasn't really into it.
And this time, listening to them,
I realized I do like a lot of their stuff.

Leif (55:36):
Yeah, they would think they'd be right up your alley.

Steve (55:39):
They really are now, which
is. I think the problem was that the first time
I went. Started going album by album,
and I feel their first album didn't
really catch me the way
other first albums have.
I also don't

(56:00):
love Kim Gordon's voice.
I do believe it is
quintessential 90s. I do believe
it captures the attitude and
affect of Gen X
beautifully. I think that her, It's that
I don't want to call her lazy, but a sort of
laziness in the voice that.

(56:21):
And I'm not calling Gen X lazy. I'm,
kind of. It's very reflective of sort of that
apathetic nature that we had when we were
teenagers. It reminds me of the Simpsons
episode where the one kid where
the one Gen X kid says to the other,
are you being sarcastic? Oh, I don't even know
anymore. When they brought out Homer Simpson at

(56:43):
the Lollapalooza.
Oh, it's the. Oh, it's the Cannonball guy.
We love him. Are you being sarcastic?
I don't even know anymore. And
that. I feel like that is Kim
Gordon's voice in the Simpsons Quote.

Leif (56:59):
Yes.
More. More fun trivia. Kim Gordon also,
performs in an episode of Gilmore Girls.

Steve (57:07):
Oh, that's nice. That's cool.

Leif (57:09):
With her two sons, I believe.

Steve (57:11):
Oh, neat. And again, no
disrespect to her or Sonic Youth
because they are definitely
a huge influence on
music.

Leif (57:24):
They're definitely one of those bands. Like, everyone who listened
to them went out and formed the band.

Steve (57:30):
Yes. Yes. And they are a
musician's band. I don't
find them to be a Lyricist,
band, all of the time. I find some
of their. That they kind of COVID
redundant themes, but with
new sounds and experimental sounds.
Whereas that's what I really feel

(57:53):
they brought to
the table is the experimental
sounds. And, to use feedback
as an instrument,
that's. Yeah, it's. It's
creative, and, I mean, it's
genius. And to make
it work, to make it melodic, to make

(58:15):
it both scratch, you know,
scratch the fingernails on the chalkboard and kind
of relieve the tension that music is supposed to relieve
at the same time. So I have to always give
them credit for what they've accomplished.

Leif (58:30):
Definitely. Lily
asked Serena about Carter. She tells Serena that she
wants her to be happy and admits that if Serena was at
Brown, this wedding probably wouldn't have happened.
A makeup scene.

Steve (58:43):
Yes.

Leif (58:44):
Dan and Jenny and Eric are joking with Scott about
his shared features. Scott tells Dan that
he's going back to Boston.

Steve (58:52):
I should have known you were lying. No 1 under at
40 likes Lincoln.

Leif (58:56):
Hawk that much, which further
confuses the timeline. Yeah,
because anyone over 40 in the 90s.
yeah, it really messed up. So was he
in the 80s? or the 90s? Which was
it? Show.

Steve (59:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I'm. Right. Because
I'm over 40 now.

Leif (59:17):
Yeah.

Steve (59:18):
So 10 years ago, you would have been
in 15. It would have been, like, in 35.

Leif (59:23):
It would have been, like,' in your 20s and your 80s.

Steve (59:25):
And the 80s. Yeah.

Leif (59:26):
If you're for over 40
in 2009.

Steve (59:30):
Yes. Yeah. So, yes,
again, the muddied timeline at some
point, time loop. The flux capacitor
that was in the Lincoln Hawk tour bus.
I also. I don't know. I think you saw it, but
I just realized the other
day, Lincoln Hawk is the name of

(59:51):
Sylvester Stallone's character.

Leif (59:54):
In over the Top, which is
famously Rufus's favorite, movie.

Steve (01:00:02):
When I picked up on that, I found that to
be hilarious. Has he mentioned
over the Top before?

Leif (01:00:08):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he has.

Steve (01:00:11):
I haven't picked up on it.

Leif (01:00:13):
So, we know Scott is supposed to be the older
brother, but he really feels like the younger brother when he's
interacting with Dan.

Steve (01:00:21):
That could be a parenting thing. Right.
Obviously, the people that raised him are
very sheltering and
very controlling.

Leif (01:00:31):
Overbearing.

Steve (01:00:32):
Yeah, and very overbearing. And Rufus is not. And
Rufus especially lets
Daniel grow up and be an adult.

Leif (01:00:40):
Gives an apartment.

Steve (01:00:41):
Gives him an apartment.

Leif (01:00:42):
Yes. That's permission to stay at.

Steve (01:00:44):
Can I sleep in the house I pay for?
No.

Leif (01:00:49):
And Serena does not interact with Scott at
all.

Steve (01:00:54):
Weird. That's A little weird. Serena, you're being
weird. Go talk to your brother.
Although I could see her being like.
Because she never met Scott at
all. She has never been in the same room as Scott, I don't
think. Yeah, so. Whereas Dan
at least met him. Yeah.

Leif (01:01:13):
and Eric.

Steve (01:01:14):
And Eric and Jenny just are nice.

Leif (01:01:17):
Well, they met him a few times because, remember, he was coming over to
the.

Steve (01:01:20):
Oh, the guitar lessons. Yes, they
met him for the guitar lesson.

Leif (01:01:24):
I remember there's this weird kid. Thank you,
guys. Lessons for you, dad.
We, get an original acoustic recording of Sonic
Use performing their song Star Power
for the party. Yeah.
So that was fun.

Steve (01:01:43):
Yeah, that. Yeah, I liked it.

Leif (01:01:45):
Serena is alone in a darkened bedroom. Chuck comes
in and admits to what he did with Carter. And
as much as Chuck hates him, Carter must really care about
Serena. Good on Shakta.

Steve (01:01:56):
Yeah. Come clean.

Leif (01:01:57):
Yeah.

Steve (01:01:58):
Could have been a little earlier on
it.

Leif (01:02:01):
And we get some more Sonic Youth as, Nate
confronts Bri about using him. She fully
admits it because in Texas, blood is thicker than
oil. Brie apologizes, but Nate
asks her to leave.

Steve (01:02:14):
And of course he's gonna ask you to leave. You just told
him. The whole thing is a fucking sham. Even if you
apologize, you are just sitting here
telling him. Yeah, we were never gonna make it
anyway, so of course he wants you to go.
You're not gonna remain friends after
this.

Leif (01:02:31):
You always have the breakup sex, though. Give her the
courtesy.

Steve (01:02:35):
Yeah. Do you get breakup sex if the
relationship was fake?

Leif (01:02:40):
Apparently not. Not in Nate's world.

Steve (01:02:43):
Not in Nate's world. Unless that happens later.

Leif (01:02:45):
Unless you pay him.

Steve (01:02:46):
Unless.

Leif (01:02:51):
Well, Serena
leaves a message for Carter that she wants to talk to him.

Steve (01:02:57):
Oh, Carter.

Leif (01:02:57):
Yeah. We see Carter riding in the back of a
limo, sandwiched between the Buckley bros.

Steve (01:03:03):
I'd like to think we're done with Bri, but I feel
like this has to now be
resolved. Unless Carter's just
disappeared. I mean, I know
we. We've discussed. I know that. I know
that Carter leaves the show.
I know that Sebastian
Stan gets fired

(01:03:26):
when he and Layton break up.
So I do know those things.

Leif (01:03:32):
We don't necessarily need Brie anymore because Brie was just kind
of the leader family to Carter.

Steve (01:03:38):
Right?

Leif (01:03:38):
So now we could have other Buckley characters.

Steve (01:03:41):
So we could also have other Buckley characters.
And I'm fine with that, too. I'm fine with
Brie being gone. Bri bored me. I'm
hoping the rest of the Buckleys don't with whatever's going on with
Carter, but honestly, whenever they do
these Guest star is
the plot. They start to lose
me on the episodes. Because here's the thing.

(01:04:04):
I don't give a shit about Carter Basin. And if they
go right now and they dump him
in the George Washington off the
George Washington Bridge, I'm not going to
be sad that Carter was killed off on
the show. So I really don't care about
finding out how he gets rescued and really

(01:04:24):
finding out how Chuck gets him out of this, because that
is, I know we haven't gotten there yet, but
that's going to be my prediction.

Leif (01:04:32):
Jenny and Eric happily watch Rufus and Lily dance
together. Oh, Dan is
lamenting to Blair that Georgina got away
unscathed. Blair says he shouldn't
be so sure of that.

Steve (01:04:44):
Yeah, Blair made a phone call. Blair
made a phone call.

Leif (01:04:49):
And speaking of which, we see Georgina sitting at
the bar. Vanya, posing as a
Belarusian prince, invites Georgina to come with
him to his home country. Somehow, Georgina
believes him. And it looks like Georgina is going to be off
the show for a while. Dota, hiding behind a
menu, appears to be in and on the scheme as well.

Steve (01:05:09):
Yes, that was Dorota
incognito.

Leif (01:05:13):
Was that. You recognize Vanya as well?

Steve (01:05:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. yes.

Leif (01:05:18):
Now, I'm really surprised Georgina didn't recognize.

Steve (01:05:20):
Vanya, except for the fact that Georgina
is solely focused on what's in front of her at any given
time. That I would think that someone like
a doorman just blends in to her
background because she's not focused on that.

Leif (01:05:35):
Maybe, But I just feel like she just has
super memory and.

Steve (01:05:39):
And really good people skills and just.

Leif (01:05:41):
Like, intelligence on all these people.

Steve (01:05:44):
that. That part is true.

Leif (01:05:46):
But the real world reason why she was so easily let off is
because she. Michelle Trachtenberg was cast on
Mercy, a medical drama that went for 23
episodes. She was the second lead, next
to Taylor Schilling.

Steve (01:05:59):
So, yeah, so she had to leave Gossip Girl to
go onto another show.

Leif (01:06:04):
So good for her. Got a full season.

Steve (01:06:07):
Yeah. It's just a shame that it happened right when I was
starting to really like that character.

Leif (01:06:13):
Everyone back at the wedding is still dancing to
Sonic Youth. Noticeably not dancing are
Nate and Serena. Huh?

Steve (01:06:22):
Huh?

Leif (01:06:23):
The last shot is Nate and Serena standing on the opposite
side of that door, just kind of looking depressed.

Steve (01:06:28):
Yeah. I mean, they both had. That had
a.

Leif (01:06:31):
They just both maybe broke up with people.

Steve (01:06:34):
Yeah, maybe.

Leif (01:06:35):
M. I mean, definitely Nate and Brie broke up, but
possibly a serious try to get Carter back.
But.

Steve (01:06:42):
But Carter's not answering and doesn't seem
Interested in getting back together. If
I'm Serena, I could very well read into that
as, wow, he didn't want to get back together with
me. Although, Serena, you should maybe be a little
worried.

Leif (01:06:56):
And Gossip Girl takes us to the credits with.
There are songs that make us want to dance,
songs that make us want to sing along,
but the best songs are the ones that bring you back to the
moment you first heard them, and once again, bring
break your heart. Xo.
Xo Gossip Girl.

(01:07:19):
Great statement.

Steve (01:07:20):
Yeah. Yeah.

Leif (01:07:22):
That is our episode. So what is coming
next?

Steve (01:07:26):
So, as I already said, I believe
whatever's happening with Carter, we're going to see
Chuck get involved to get him out.
Probably also Nate,
because Nate is now mad at the Buckleys
and the real
Buckley drama is not Buckley Bass, but
Buckley Archibald. So clearly we're going to have to get

(01:07:48):
deeper into the Archibald Buckley
drama. I hope it's good. I'm not
optimistic because it sounds like a, snooze
fest because so far when we've had Buckley's and
Archibalds together, I've been bored.
And it's the only time I'm
bored watching this show. Even when I'm
annoyed with the show, even when I think it's

(01:08:10):
badly written or. Or
there's bad acting or something is
not clicking, even on the C episodes,
I'm not bored. I'm.
I just don't think it's necessarily
good all the time when it comes
to Nate and Bri. I'm fucking

(01:08:31):
bored. Bri was not interesting to me
until Blair started being an
asshole at the restaurant.
That's. That made Brie kind
of interesting only because I liked
watching Blair on her. So
I really hope this
plays out either quickly or more

(01:08:53):
entertaining than that relationship was bringing
to the table. I hope that
Rufus and Lily and their relationship
takes a more backseat to
this show and that they have a relationship
of guiding and supporting the kids
instead of needing all their own back and

(01:09:14):
forth drama.

Leif (01:09:15):
We can only hope.

Steve (01:09:16):
I. I really, really hope. And I'm not
optimistic because every time I've
started thinking that they were finally doing that,
they do more childish shit like they did in this
episode. I do hope that they can make their
relationship about the family and
their kids and the future

(01:09:36):
more than just reminiscing in the
past and arguing about who's
rich and who's not and arguing about money
because you don't have money troubles.
And Roof is just accept the fact that you are now
fucking rich, that you are now in the
society you hate. You're in it.

(01:09:57):
Start giving your money away.

Leif (01:09:59):
What's next for Scott?

Steve (01:10:00):
I think we'll see him in the holiday episode,
like he said. I think that he's gonna.
I think we're not gonna see him for a little
bit, but then I feel like he'll
pop in. In the holiday episode.
Maybe something will be going on with Vanessa at
that point. And we're gonna see a, Vanessa Scott
triangle. Why wasn't Vanessa at the wedding?

(01:10:23):
That was weird.

Leif (01:10:24):
I thought she was.

Steve (01:10:25):
No, they. He. Very specifically. Dan very
specifically is like, Vanessa is sorry she couldn't be
here. She'd really. And then Scott says, I'll come back at
the holidays. And Vanette. And he said, I think Vanessa would
really like that. Which I'm wondering if
Jessica was busy when they
were shooting that scene for some other reason,

(01:10:45):
because it was such a weird absence. Like
maybe she just was left off the call sheet and they
forgot to add her that day. But
it was a weird absence to have her not at the
party.

Leif (01:10:58):
What if I told you we will never see Scott
again?

Steve (01:11:01):
Are you fucking kidding me?

Leif (01:11:03):
Which means Serena never has an on screen conversation
with her brother.

Steve (01:11:11):
God damn it.

Leif (01:11:13):
He does get the Allison treatment where he gets mentioned once
in a while,
but never seen again.

Steve (01:11:21):
Never seen again. Never visits for the
holidays. Never, of fucking
course, anything else you get.
I am impressed that Blair and
Chuck are still
in a Gossip Girl universe.
Healthy relationship. I won't call their
relationship healthy, but I'll say that in the

(01:11:42):
morality and in the universe of
Gossip Girl, they're really working out.

Leif (01:11:48):
Yeah.

Steve (01:11:48):
And they are. now, like
we said, their conflicts are external and not
internal. And so I do
feel. I say it every week. I feel like there's drama
coming for them. I'm just. Now I
don't know where it is, if that makes sense. Now.
It's. They really are just doting
on each other. So I guess that there's gonna have

(01:12:11):
to be something. There's probably gonna be a power play
or maybe something that's going on with
Jenny. Although Chuck going for high
school girls just doesn't strike me as
Chuck. But I think something's on the
horizon. Oh, and also, as I mentioned earlier, Dark
Jenny. I. I know it's coming.
I don't know how soon, but. But let's get

(01:12:33):
there.

Leif (01:12:35):
Well, let's go ahead and get into some
segments this week in
fandom. we jumped into the Wayback Machine.
Hello there. Peabody here. And this
is the Wayback Machine for traveling through time. And
this is my Boy, Sherman, speak. Sherman.

Steve (01:12:53):
Hello.

Leif (01:12:53):
Good boy. No tells with that
petty thread. actually, there's no thread for
them for a few episodes coming up here, so
I went over to fan forum.

Steve (01:13:03):
That's weird.

Leif (01:13:05):
I mean, they exist, but the
archive.org just doesn't have them
anymore. Overall,
they liked the episode. Okay,
Happy Rufus and Lily got married. And that Scott
plotline seems to be resolved.

Steve (01:13:19):
Yeah, yeah. I mean, it was.

Leif (01:13:24):
All taken care.

Steve (01:13:25):
Of, wrapped up in a nice little bow.

Leif (01:13:27):
There was one user with the
username Lily loves Rufus was all over the
thread.

Steve (01:13:33):
That's funny.

Leif (01:13:35):
A lot of talk about the promo for next
episode I did not watch.

Steve (01:13:40):
I've never seen any promos.

Leif (01:13:42):
So it looks like Chuck may
be kissing a guy.
Lily is immature and selfish.

Steve (01:13:52):
Thank you.

Leif (01:13:54):
And they also pointed out that Georgina is fooled way
too easily.

Steve (01:13:58):
Yeah. Yeah.

Leif (01:14:00):
Well, let's, go ahead and get into some episode grades.
I went first last time. So what do you got this week?

Steve (01:14:09):
I'm going to give this a B minus.
I'm going to let the Phantom Menace.
I'm going to let it get me still.
Again, I really got annoyed with Rufus
and Lily this whole episode. More. More Lily than
Rufus, to be honest. But I. I was annoyed
with that storyline. I was really
annoyed with the

(01:14:31):
Carter Serena.
I was. I shouldn't say really annoyed, but I was kind of
bored with some of the Carter Serena stuff. Bored
with the Nate stuff. even though there wasn't that much of
it. But the parts of this episode that were great
were just so good. I
loved the family makeup scene at the end.

(01:14:51):
I loved the epilogue of this
episode. I loved Rufus and Lily
meeting, coming together with Scott. The
last 20 minutes of this episode I thought
was fantastic. The first 20
minutes, I should say the last 10 minutes were fantastic. In
the first 30 minutes were kind of hit or miss for
me.

Leif (01:15:11):
Fair enough. I have a little bit better than.
Yeah, I like the writing stuff. Like, even
though the Lily stuff annoyed me, I thought it was
good writing because it made sense for the character,
so I actually ended up liking it. Okay.
The Nate and Brie stuff is boring, but, like, there's only, like, one or
two scenes, so whatever. And, you know,

(01:15:32):
Serena Carter stuff, that was
okay. It was not terrible. Wasn't
great. But I, liked all the wedding
planning stuff. the Parent Trap stuff was
funny. And the Vanessa
Georgina dance stuff was hilarious.

Steve (01:15:47):
Yes.

Leif (01:15:48):
So I gave it a B plus.

Steve (01:15:49):
Okay. I think that's fair.

Leif (01:15:52):
Stock riots, who you got going up?

Steve (01:15:54):
I have Rufus and Lily going up for finally doing
the damn thing.
I have Scott going up for
being a part of the family that he will forever be a part
of and cherish and love.

Leif (01:16:07):
Yeah, it kind of takes some shine off that, that last scene with,
with Lily saying how much, you know, she thought about him every
day for the past 20 years. That piece
out Deuces.

Steve (01:16:19):
I had little Jenny, little J going
up mostly for that one line. You
can go. Yeah, I had
Blair going up for taking care of the
Georgina problem. And also just in general,
was right about things, was right about
Bri. I have Bri going up because she actually
got what she was after in

(01:16:41):
Carter. She was never interested in
Nate. And so I
had her going up because her family got what they wanted.
I have the new mean girls going up for
helping out Jenny. I
believe that is it all right.

Leif (01:17:00):
For me going up. I also have Rufus and Lily for
getting married. Scott for having a family.

Steve (01:17:06):
Dorota and Vanya for
Doroda and Vanya were the two that I meant to add
on here that I didn't.

Leif (01:17:13):
They had their scheme and Dorota looked so beautiful in
her wedding dress or wedding outfit. And
I had Dan going up because. Why did I have Dan going
up? I, mean, he got his, he got his brother. He
got a brother, another little brother.

Steve (01:17:27):
That'S also, that's his big brother.

Leif (01:17:30):
Yeah. and Eric growing up because he's got
more family now as well. And that's always good for Eric
and Jenny because yeah, she is definitely,
about to make her power play.

Steve (01:17:42):
You know, I'll add Dan and Eric as
well. I kind of left Dan out
unintentionally.

Leif (01:17:50):
Yeah. All the huffers of Aaron with and this minus Serena pretty much
go out.

Steve (01:17:53):
Yeah. Yeah, I definitely see that. And yes,
minus Serena as well.

Leif (01:17:58):
Who you got going down?

Steve (01:18:00):
Serena, Carter.
Nate. Poor, poor lonely Nate. And
Georgina getting shipped off. I have
Georgina going down.
that's all I have.

Leif (01:18:15):
Mostly the same Carter, Serena, Nate and
Georgina. But you had the mean girl. New
mean girls going up. I gave Carmen a down
because she got dismissed.

Steve (01:18:25):
She did get dismissed. I, I,
yes, that, that is fair. I was kind of
looking at them as a
unit and two up, one down.
I gave them the up. But I
definitely,
understand because she. You
can. God damn that.

(01:18:47):
It was her saying it.
And the fucking look as they
all.

Leif (01:18:54):
Made eye contact like flair approves. And then
Serena just like, I don't know about that.

Steve (01:19:00):
Yeah. But here's the best
outfits from M. The last episode
we've seen.

Leif (01:19:09):
Who do you got for best outfit?

Steve (01:19:11):
I'm giving it to Dorota that,
especially someone who doesn't get
to wear. Wear
anything other than a maid's outfit or a maid's outfit
with a scarf. Her
incognito look. I really
like that they let her wear something and
really look beautiful.

(01:19:33):
And the. The hat,
the. The flowery dress.
It was a, great outfit. Was
it the number one on there?
Maybe not. I also loved Blair's
green dress, but I'm giving it to Dorota because. Green
dress at the wedding.

Leif (01:19:53):
That was not green.

Steve (01:19:54):
It was green. She was wearing a green dress.

Leif (01:19:56):
It was an ombre dress.

Steve (01:19:58):
Ombre. What is ombre?

Leif (01:20:00):
Shaded.

Steve (01:20:02):
Shaded.

Leif (01:20:03):
Yeah, because, like, it's. It's like. It was like a
yellowish mustard, like, grayish green at, top,
and that was, like, purple at the bottom.

Steve (01:20:11):
Oh, I'm thinking of the top that. The greenish
top is what I was.

Leif (01:20:15):
But it was all one dress. And it's. It's. It's. It's
shaded. It's an ombre dress. That was. That was
actually my dress. The episode. yeah, it says, I'm
glad.

Steve (01:20:24):
I'm glad it is, because I really wanted that one to also
get the shout out. But.

Leif (01:20:28):
So, yeah, it was an ombre Valentino dress. She's
also wearing red and black miu Miu wedges
and an alligator skin clutch and a juicy
couture gold and black wrist cuff.

Steve (01:20:40):
Yes. Yeah. Yeah, I did.
I loved how she looked at that wedding.
Robin, actually. Also, Robin's pick
would have been Serena's dress, too. Robin loved the dress that
Serena was wearing. You can always count on
a great outfit at a wedding on
Gossip Girl. Although the. The wedding

(01:21:00):
dress was awful. Lily's wedding dress
was awful.

Leif (01:21:05):
I did like Jenny's dress, the purple dress.
It wasn't half his. Wasn't fitted right
for her or something. Something was off for
me, but I liked it in theory.

Steve (01:21:16):
Yeah, well, Jenny made it.
You know, she's still learning.

Leif (01:21:21):
No, that was definitely a designer dress.

Steve (01:21:23):
Oh, yeah. She stopped making her own stuff.

Leif (01:21:26):
I believe it was an Elie Saab.

Steve (01:21:28):
Okay.

Leif (01:21:28):
Yeah, I did look that one up as well.

Steve (01:21:31):
She started making her own stuff when she became a bass.

Leif (01:21:34):
Well, that is it for segments. what are you
plugging?

Steve (01:21:39):
I'm currently reading
the Horus Heresy 40K
series, and I'm on, like, the
13th or 14th book, the first
Heretic. And it's just some of the best
writing I've come across in that series, and
it's a really well written series. So if you like
the fantasy sci fi

(01:22:01):
genre, it's a really good
glimpse of that.

Leif (01:22:08):
Fair enough for me. I, will say
watch Good Cop Bad Cops, we get a second season
and also check out nostalgic edit

Season three, Episode six,
Enough About Eve.
The, Max episode description reads
Vanessa vies with Blair to deliver the
freshman toast.

Steve (01:23:59):
All right, I am familiar
with All About Eve, the title, but I don't know if
I've seen it. I think that it was one of
those you're too young for this when it
came out. And it was, I think it was my sister that
was like, you're too young for this because my dad let me watch fucking
Revenge of the Nerds when I was 10. Or however
old I was when that came out.
