Today, we conclude our conversation about Mary-Kate and Ashley's final direct to video film, The Challenge (2003).

And if you know this movie, you know that the ending is what makes this film a piece of magic. Both Lani and Becca had parts of the surprise ending spoiled for them, so we thought we were prepared, but we absolutely weren't. We even thought we were prepared to talk about the ending, but we absolutely were not. So we cry as we talk about how Mary-Kate and Ashley knew this was their final film just for their fans, and how they gave us the sweetest sendoff we could have ever imagined.

We HIGHLY recommend watching this nice warm hug of a film, so if you don't still have the DVD or VHS, you can watch by clicking the link in SimplyOlsen's Instagram bio (which we are forever grateful for).
