I have a job and I was just getting off
work and I was like, guess who's on his way
with me? And so here we are. What did we

(04:15):
think of this week's episodes of days.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
I liked it. Some movement finally and some things. Yeah,
I thought it was a solid week every week. It
was all right, it was okay. You say that every week?

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Do you want it? Okay? If the Horton town Square explodes,
then will you be satisfied? Tony?

Speaker 1 (04:41):
Sure, it will give us something to talk about.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
You think we already did something. Didn't the town explode already?
Sometimes one of the times Jack died.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Oh yeah it.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Did, right, it explosion underneath? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Hi mom, thank.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
You will time?

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Hi Mama more.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yeah, she's an Alabama fan. If you don't know, now
you do.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Yes, Look, the world is exploding. I don't need Salem
to explode. I just need I just need Salem to
be Salem.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
If Salem is a rocking, don't come and knock him. Well,
speaking of a rock in Salem, let's talk about it,
shall we. Let's take a deeper dive into what happened
this week. It's now time for our favorite part of
the show, where we try to save this together because
we're virtual. It is now time. Oh and also where

(05:38):
I try to show.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
It is now.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
I think I'm rubbing off on Michael Madis where you
just when something reminds you of a song, you just
do the song.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Breaking the song is my dad likes to call it
breaking the song. Oh God, they're gonna, oh god, they're
gonna break in the song.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
And they usually do well. Speaking of breaking in the song,
let's kick things off with our first top storyline, which
is you are not the father. Okay. I was interested
in this. Then he might clock that because when he
was like when Kaylin was like, yeah, Tat's not the dad,

(06:30):
I was like.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Yes. And before you got here, Tony, everybody was in
the chat saying like I knew it, Aaron's the father.
The edition days was wrong, and I'm like, okay, guys,
we are far. We're making a lot of you know,
jumps from A to B t C right now. Okay,

(06:54):
first she's got to rerun the DNA test and then
we'll go from there. Okay, there's lots of possibilities of
what's going on here. We don't know yet.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
What are the possibilities are, Sally, what do you think
they are?

Speaker 3 (07:09):
The possibility is that our audience could be right, Aaron
could have been the father from the beginning. I fully
admit that that's a possibility. The somebody, somebody like Melinda
could have gotten wind that that that Brady was running
a DNA test and did a switcheroo. She's been known
to do it. Before she could do she could have
arranged to do it again. Okay, Yeah, there's there's there's

(07:34):
quite there's.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
A few possibilities.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
We just have to kind of, you know, wait a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Because I can tell you who didn't do it, Sophia,
because she is slat Oh, I said, ma'am, if you're
gonna be patty girl, at least be good at it. Now.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Another case of this is another case of someone thinking
they're good at being you know, dastardly and villainous, and
you just ain't. It's it's a female, teenage female nician.
You're just not good at it.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Yeah, Yeah, I'm gonna throw the possibility it's not her
baby either, I think, I mean, there's some other possible one.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I think.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
I agree.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
I think Aaron could be a father. That's a possibility.
I think the possibility that this isn't her baby. I
think a possibility is that someone else is the father.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Unfortunately. If you.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
Yeah, also a possibility.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, and not in a good way. If you got
anything to say it, you know, if you if.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Yeah, yeah, there's like yeah, unfortunately yeah yeah, there's unfortunately
quite a few possibilities. Uh I think yeah, more like yeah,
some are likely than others. It's just it's it's yeah,
we gotta wait, we gotta wait this one out. Guys.
I'm sorry, I'm not I'm not sold off. I'm kind

(09:11):
of jump you know.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
I I'm at this point with this story and the baby,
I'm going to try to not make any guesses and
just see how it plays out, because there are lots
of possibilities of what's going on. And yeah, it's gonna
just gonna wait and see. And the reason someone asked

(09:34):
why Holly rolled up in scrubs is because her clothes
had to It's closer to clothes were too dirty or whatever. Right,
they gave her smoky Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
They were they were smoky.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
They were smoky, So they gave respond to the hospital
and that's why she showed up back of the dorm
with scrubs on.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah. No, But Dylan was like, well, maybe Holly would
change the results. I don't think there was enough time
for that. She's not at the top of my list
for people who would have changed the results. But like
I said, anything is possible right now, so let's guys,
let's just wait and see.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
But but it it's definitely an easter egg to be like,
huh so kudos to that. Mm hmmm, because yeah, sorry,
oh yeah, I see. I will say this. I hope

(10:35):
my hope is that they do take a turn that
shocks us all mm hmm, that all the scenarios that
were possibly thinking and it's something just completely different and
we clutch our pearls over it. Yeah, I would I
would love for that to happen for me.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
I think making Aaron the father now seems cut a
little lazy. I know, originally we suspected that, and then
they had that scene that sort of debunked that, and
now to like redo it again and make him the
father seems a little lazy for me.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
So I'm hoping he's not the father.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
I'm hoping that it's that it is, like Tony said,
something a little bit more crazier or like a bit
more interesting that will sort of not wape the slate clean,
but will clean up a lot of this because the
storyline has gotten really out there, like there's so many
different people involved now there's so many different factors and
layers to it that Yeah, it's it's it's getting so

(11:36):
not outlandish, but it's I don't know, it's it's off
the realm.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, yeah, off the round.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
And a lot of that is because of Sophia's behavior.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Yeah, And this week with that story, there was a
little bit of whiplash because it all seemed to happen
very quickly, with like, all of a sudden the doormoom
was on fire, then all of a sudden she was
being rescued, and all of a sudden she's in the hospital,
and then Sofia is off and her ship with the
phone and and everything, And it was a lot too

(12:05):
absorbed with that storyline this week. They were just they
were just all over the place.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah, especially when you're not supposed to have candles in
the college dorm.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
But also.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
And and I don't know if it was just me,
Like I understand that the Holly has a pass with
drugs and not so great past with drugs, and and
that you know, Daniel died because of her father died
because of drunk right, but like and and she honestly
and honestly she didn't even drink too much. She was
you know, she didn't realize she had drank as much

(12:44):
as as she did.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
But like the well remember Sophia poured more.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. It wasn't Holly. Where I'm leading to
this very long windedly. Is that like the the intensity
of like that oh my gosh, she drank like and
I understand that, Yeah, it led to her knocking over
a candle. She didn't wake up because she was still
a little whatever. It just was a little I felt

(13:10):
the whole oh, like, we don't want Holly to become
have a problem. I felt that part that part of
it was a little forced to me, like like a
simple conversation, but it was like that whole conversation that
like Maggie and Holly had, Like I was like, this
is a little intense just for a college kid getting
drunk one night. Obviously it's not good that it led

(13:30):
to the fire, like I said.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
But yeah, yeah, I think if I had a lot
not led to the fire, wouldn't have been as intense.
Maybe not from Holly's perspective, but I think Holly just
was so overwhelmed at that point that she was just
like overly apologetic for something that was clearly an accident,
and you know, Kayla even said clearly like it did.

(13:52):
It doesn't seem like you had that much to drink.
You might be just one of those people whose body
chemistry is different. And yes, I'm glad they brought that
up because she no one, no, I don't care how
it experienced. You are no one should be getting drunk
off of two Rouman cokes. So if they say even
even then it's like that's a reach. So then it's

(14:14):
then then it's like if they explain, oh, like she
might just be one of those people whose body chemistry definitely,
because there are people who are actually allergic to alcohol
or like they're the way that their immunity is. It's
just it's wacky. It can be different for different people.
So if that's if that's ends up being the case, Okay,
I understand the intensity absolutely, absolutely from Maggie's perspective, of course.

(14:37):
And then you know the factor in Brady had to
call Nicole and I, oh my god, they.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Went to Like the narrative I was getting was like,
oh gosh, we now we think Holly has a problem.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
I didn't get No, I didn't get that vibe that
that that Holly had a problem.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
It was it was that that mag he was acting
like it was like, oh, we have to nip this
in the bud before, like it's like an emergency. I
don't know, Like I said, the urgency and the intensity
and the underlying possible narrative that Holly might have a
drinking problem. Now, I don't know what.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
I don't think she was saying that. I think it
was just the intensity of that. This is not the
first time that Holly has used substances to kind of
gloss over her pain, and you know, the last time
she did that, she ended up in a coma.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
True. Yeah, she was go ahead, just I kind of agreed.
I thought it was a little heavy handed.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
The one thing I did like those that they made
the they at least had Maggie make the distinction when
Brady was telling the story and she said like, oh,
why didn't Holly react to the alarm or something? And
then so that I think that's what triggered her, Like
she couldn't get herself up and save herself when she
was drunk, So I think that played into it. But

(16:01):
I do agree with you. I think it was a
little heavy handed, But I guess maybe maybe because of
that factor, she kind of lead big Maggie sort of
leaned into it. But yeah, I thought it was one
of those things of like Jesus, like we get it,
like the family has a history with with with addiction
and everything. But also does it mean every time you
take a sip of something, you're you know, you're automatically an.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Addict or you didn't have a no no? But I
don't think that's what either one of them was saying,
because even Brady was like, you know, college kids, they
do stupid things to Maggie, and but his warning to Tait,
I think had it had an equal amount of yes,
you're the son of two addicts, but also, dude, you're

(16:43):
not making smart decisions right now when you're sober.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Can we also just remember that Holly wasn't out partying.
The girl was drinking while doing a paper.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Yeah, but she then they I thought maybe they or
did they they reference that she didn't see who made
them or did. I thought like they would go into like, oh,
well maybe you were maybe you were unknowingly roofied or.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Something, also a possibility.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
I think she also didn't want to implicate Ari.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Ari was the it was the color of mule, but
she was the trans the transport. I did like after saying,
after saying all that about the Maggie scenes, I did love.
I did actually think they were very well performed by
Ashley and and Susan, Like, uh, actually did a great job.

(17:37):
Like I was like, oh, she's really crying, Like I
really felt that kind of like relationship, like that kind
of relationship where she feels like she let her grandma
down and you know, she feels guilty and confused and everything.
So I appreciate I appreciated the scenes for what they were,
despite not liking the heavy handedness.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Justin she's just emotionally overwhelmed right now. And that's okay, Holly, Holly, Holly.
But yeah, but it's like at least at least she
made the smart decision of like nope, hate, we're not
going back.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
They're never ever ever getting.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
Getting bad together. She's the last show girl. Okay. A
couple of things bugged me about this storyline. Number one, Chanel.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
We talked about this before the Joe.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
It almost feels like the Blue Bunny again.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
M hm.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
Yeah, like like I know that you really want a kid,
but you're she's smarter than this. Right, it's all too
convenient that this letter shows up basically saying no, also

(19:12):
saying that Johnny is having an inappropriate relationship. Number two,
Number three, do people who are visiting your home ask
to check your phone?

Speaker 2 (19:27):
That's what we're saying. Yeah, it's that would not have happened.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
Yeah, and also I'm sorry, but when you send a
picture to someone, it doesn't just pop up on their phone.
It's like it's like says message image. Right, Like, he
looked down and there's just to.

Speaker 5 (19:50):
Set just sit there, and he's like, I have a
question follow before we follow up, I have have a question.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
I have like a tech question about that, if anybody
can pull that up and actually check because it occurred
to me later on that I didn't actually like that.
That moment was so awkward. I didn't actually want to
look at the picture. But then I realized, wait a minute,
what angle was that picture taken at?

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Remember she took it from the side, but she probably
edit it so that it goes the other way.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Okay, all right? Because I was like, because in my
mind I was like, if she took it like this,
that's a little more suspect.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Do you remember, do you remember when she was taking
that she did like all kinds of like she did
photo shoot, so.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
But that I just didn't see the one that was sent. No,
my my point being that like it would it would
be extremely suspect if, like you see those into images
usually selfie taken up down angle, but there there's a
certain there's there's certain angles that those kinds of photos

(21:07):
are taken. Upside down is not one of them.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
I would like to know how you know what angle
those photos should be taken.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
Oh, I would like to know that too. Are sally.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Zero because the fact that you the fact that you
just went into a whole thing of like how they
should be taken. No, I have business out here.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
You do know, no, absolutely zero personal knowledge of that,
because I watched lawn Orders to be you and I'm
not stupid.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
There's that. But also, okay, here's the here's the here's
the other thing. Right, so along along with that, let's
cut to Sophia. Sophia, you could have you can't do
anything about sending the photo to Johnny, right, But smartly

(22:08):
what you should have done was said, sure, I'll go
in and help you. You delete that text from Holly's
phone so that she doesn't see it along with the
photos that you took. You plant said phone back in
the room. Why did you do a whole factory reset? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (22:32):
And then because these days everything automatically uploads into the cloud.
Nothing is deleted unless you turn it off. Unless you
do unless you do a factory reset and turn it off.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
You don't want to do a factory reset. You just
need to turn off the cloud sinking and then it stops.
What's there?

Speaker 1 (22:49):
But yeah, once once she sent the text to Johnny,
there's a I mean, well, although I think on iPhone
you can unsend that, can you not?

Speaker 2 (23:01):
If it's iPhone, the iPhone within a certain amount of time,
you can unsend an I miss.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Okay, there's that now also like she could have just
deleted that text from Holly and then just put it
back in there as if she didn't know.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah, suspicious like.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
Like like the whole the whole time, I kept looking
at her like, girl, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (23:31):
She didn't know?

Speaker 1 (23:31):
She didn't you know what you know why she didn't know?

Speaker 2 (23:35):
She was and then she was wait, there was a part,
there was a part that I heard her voice she
was reading the letter that she wrote about john What
was that?

Speaker 4 (23:54):
I think it was supposed to let us well, did
the the whole thing out line or did they did it?

Speaker 3 (24:01):
The social worker read the first It was like a
back and forth with the social worker read it, and
then Sophia was reading a copy of what she had
sent and then back to the social worker.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Why was she doing that?

Speaker 4 (24:14):
I probably just a creative Yeah, you made like why
was Sophia specific the listening to the letter?

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Because she because they made they made it a point
and this is this. They made it a point to
that that Sophia knew precisely what time the social worker
would be at Johnny and Chanell's house, so they made
it a point to say that she was going to
be She was reading the letter at the same time,
kind of in her mind thinking about like anticipating Johnny

(24:44):
and Chanell getting rejected.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
First of all, I love I love Jill because I
was about Jose I googled and that, No, checking your
phone is not a normal process. Your social media will
be checked for d ability if you will be a
good candidate to adopt. I knew there was something off
about the soul because I would have if I was
it was said no, like, first of all, I have

(25:08):
nothing to have, but also this doesn't pertain to anything.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, no, it's unless like literally, I think the only
time you're anybody would ever do that it was if
it was like a company property, like a company phone
or something like that, and or you were under arrest.

Speaker 4 (25:23):
And also like you, I mean not for nothing, but
like you don't know what are into or like into
their personal business.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Like do you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (25:30):
Like a random photo of someone's cleavage is not it's
not an indict bit.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
About one one photo and suddenly the man's cheating. He
yeah much, he's not suitable to raise children.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Yes, but let's be yeah, but let's be clear about
this Chanelle had. Chanelle was not upset about that. She
she was upset like it. Yes, she jumped too quickly,
but she backed tracked because she backtracked, and she she
believed Johnny it was it was I think it was

(26:07):
also the Holly of it all. It's like she will.
That's what why she believed is she thought like maybe
Holly fell back into her crush now that she's his student.
So if for a hot second, yes, it made sense
in her mind because she was upset guys with nobody
makes rational decisions when they are upset. Once you know,
calm down a bit. And Johnny was like, we're going

(26:29):
to figure out what's going on, then okay, we'll go
from there.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
But that's the thing there was, there was no reason
to initially get upset, like, I mean, first of all,
know your man, like he like, first of all, when
would he have time to start sexting with Holly john
Is He just got off trial for a possible murder.
He had two jobs, Like.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Really, I don't see him going to one of them.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
Well, he was going to be going to work.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Who do we see going to work other than Tony
Demira and those those curious dudes right now, right, he
was okay.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
In between his trials, he would pop in into into
Titan and and we haven't seen the last room yet,
but we know that he went. But also this, I'm sorry. Yes,
there was a phone call, but like other than that,
there are no prior text messages except all of a
sudden boobs at nine o two.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
A m.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
Chanelle, it will She was just she was just upset
because the social worker blew out of there so fast.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Well, yes, but also I would have been like what,
like what First of all, what just happened? And none
of this makes sense?

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yeah, and it.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Would have been like why does why would the birth mother?
First of all, how are you still reading the Spectator
about your child? And then felt compelled to write a note,
let's talk about this. You dropped your child off at
fire station, So how do you get to say who
is suitable to raise your firestation baby? How about that?

(28:17):
And then secondly, when when that letter was read, like
the only person who was like all this points to
Sophia was Brady Brady of all the.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
I'm like, Brady, Brady was activated this week and last week?
Oh my god, this is Brady. What do they what
do they call that? A redemption arc? Is definitely after
years on the show, Yeah, this is his redemption arc.
He's he's playing with a full deck.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Now. I just I just think it's slopping. Yeah, I
just think.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
What from I expected?

Speaker 1 (29:00):
What?

Speaker 3 (29:01):
Who? Who? Who is being sloppy? Or are you talking
about just the situation in general?

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Sophia is sloppy. Yes, that's spy. It's it's sloppy, but
it's also unnecessary.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
I don't know about it. Unnecessary because I think it's
I think it's necessary. Just might have pointed out Sophia.
There's something, there's something, There might be something, and I
and more and more. I mean, I don't need lead
one for justice there, but I don't. I think that
there is something more going on with Sophia. We talked

(29:39):
last week about how how how you know her brain
is all scored right now, and she clearly didn't get Yeah, no,
there's something. I think there's something seriously wrong. There are
something serious wrong.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Yeah. Yeah, she could only keep it together for so long,
and I think this is her snapping. And I think
this is her like slightly losing it because of all
the pressure that she's been under regarding this child.

Speaker 3 (30:07):
Yeah, there's just life in general, trauma. There's there's there's something,
there's something like this girl needs to be under a
doctor's care.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
There's there's a there's definitely like a lot going on,
but still it's sloppy and for no reason. It's like
it's it's like, oh, I have a thought on getting
back and then just like executing it. It's like it's
not being executed properly, because then.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
I think she's got several screws.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
I think the screws have just h the screws have
just fallen out, fallen off off.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Like what if I had a thought, what if Chanelle?
What if the visceral reaction Chanelle had was actually a
point They wrote it on purpose to reveal that because
I know, like when Chanell had her pregnancy, like her test, Like,
did they say definitively she couldn't get pregnant or just

(31:07):
that it would.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Be difficult difficult?

Speaker 3 (31:12):
Yeah, So maybe.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
I'm wondering if maybe this is like the intro. You know,
there's always something when a when a female character is
pregnant on the show, they either pass out or they
do Maybe that's this is the beginning of her pregnancy reveal,
Like that's why she she was emotional up and down
because she's actually and just doesn't know it yet. I
mean Nicole, I mean Kristin got pregnant and she allegedly

(31:36):
couldn't get Nicole got pregnant. She allegedly couldn't.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
So yeah, no, they didn't say that Chanelle could never
get pregnant, that just that she would it would be
it would be dangerous, she would have to be heavily monitored.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Yeah, it was just such a and like we've all
agreed that it was just such a an extreme reaction,
so maybe there's a point to it that we don't
know yet.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Yeah, I would be fine with that, because you know,
Chanell's going to be a great mother. It's just not
of this baby.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
And give Johnny some good goddamn news, like give him
like something to be happy about.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I mean, look, sometimes sometimes
I chuckle like if a character is gonna make a
dumb decision, I don't I'm not. I'm not on board.
Like you get what you get and you don't get upset.
But at this point, Johnny is being los used like
a pinata.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
H Yeah, It's like I I feel like that moment
the social worker read the letter, I kind of threw
my hands up and was like, what more can you
put this? This this couple through, like we we just had,
I mean, coming from the Blue Bunny incident where Johnny

(32:51):
accused Chanelle of cheating with Alex, to Johnny being upset
with EJ and on trial to murder him of his
shooting to now becoming a professor and now now suddenly
it's like, let's revisit this baby thing again. Oh, here's

(33:11):
a letter. It's like y'all can't y'all can't leave them,
like y'all can't put them at peace for just a
little bit.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
M yeah, a little bit.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
I would have rather it been a little bit more nuanced, where,
like we said, we were kind of rolling our eyes
at that, the social worker would be like, I have
a letter from the birth parent's like, well, how do
you know who wrote that letter? Like why you're putting
a lot.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Of stock into you didn't?

Speaker 4 (33:40):
Yeah, So I think I personally I would have liked
it if yes, everything that happened happened, but maybe if
the social worker was a little bit more like, this
is a mark against you, but we're not sure or something,
you know what I mean, Like everything else is great,
we love you, we think you'd be great parents, but
but or or like we need to investigate this before
we move forward.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
The fact that she like saw a picture of cleavage
and then.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
That there was no way that she could have seen.
But also there was like a there was I'm sorry days,
I love y'all, but there was like there was almost
like a like an error because when when the camera
went to the phone, the picture was up already. Yeah,
then when the social worker grabbed the phone, she said, oh,
you got a text message. Oh, and I'm like, but

(34:26):
the boobies were already out.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah. That was that was a little wonky because then
at one point I think Chanelle even looked at the
phone and I'm like, oh, well, she would have seen
the boobs and she didn't really have a reaction. I'm like,
I'm also see these boobs.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Like also again, like text messages don't work like that.
When somebody sends you something, it's like a screen.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Either that may give you it may give you like
a little preview of the image.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
That you even have to tool down yourself, but there
would just be a there, like goodness, gracious. Anyway, Well,
we'll see what happens with this. It's all a mess, though,
what a hot mess. A hot mess. And I'm not

(35:17):
talking about their dorm room on fire.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
They also got not expelled, but thrown like they can't
stay the dorm.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Now, well they're just moving rooms.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Yeah, oh I thought damage.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Yeah, well, so so there was I I know which
part you're talking about, because because they ended it with
this thing of like of Alri saying and we got evicted,
and it was like and then it was the old asshole.
It went to like commercial, and then it came back
and then it was like evicted and she's like, oh,

(35:59):
we just have to change rooms, and it's like.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Oh, that's right.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
Yeah, but they do have to go before the board
and they have to pay for every all the damage
of disciplinary hearing.

Speaker 2 (36:09):
It's like, yeah, and I love.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
I love Holly talking about I'll get a job. Look
the second they said we then we had to pay
for something. And Maggie was standing next to me. I
would have said, Grandma, Grandma, I love you, Grandma. Then
all of a sudden it's called the the Maggie KaraOK
is dormitory for girls.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
The Maggie ko House for wayward women.

Speaker 3 (36:41):
That sounds like something very different.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
Yeah, I did appreciate the fact that they kept it
the right end. That of course, remember Holly doesn't have
any money because she gave it all to Doug. So
it's like, okay, that's a little, a little. You get
some points there for for her not reacting that way,
because it obviously was like, oh, well, use your own money,
and I guess she to get.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
A job at the pub. So all three of them
are working at.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
The pub then.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
No, I think Colly has a little bit more self
respect than that.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
But that's it for this storyline, right, I want to
talk about this was one to our next storyline. Then
shall we blackout bombshells?

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Which one I know I'm like?

Speaker 1 (37:30):
Which, well, well we'll we'll go in order of our
of our rundown here. Let's start with EJ and Bell.
I mean, it's no, it's no surprise that EJ is
still in love with Bell. I think Belle is still
in love with EJ, but she doesn't want to be yep, yes,
but I like.

Speaker 3 (37:48):
It felt very much like a closer scene, like this
is the couple that is never ever ever getting back together.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
I don't know that last look before where she left.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
That was just her asthma from Nayler.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
She was fine, did we did we know Bell had asthma? No?

Speaker 2 (38:12):
I don't think that was that was that was No,
that was we need something to happen.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
So Bell now has asthma.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
That's kind of familiar to me, actually, I mean.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Maybe it's looking at forgetting or was at a time
when I was off for a minute, But.

Speaker 4 (38:32):
I mean I feel like they had that same conversation
eighteen times all in the elevator.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
It was it was a little much.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
Basically, Belle should have looked at him and said, you
know that thing you pulled in the courtroom. I should
have whooped your ass then, but I let you live.
I don't like you. I don't want to be here
with you. I don't care how you feel about me.
I can't stand you. You, the sight of you, the
smell of smell. You leave me alone, you and your

(39:07):
stupid feelings. M hm, that's what she should have said,
A little mix of what Monique said, the precious and precious. Well,
there's that.

Speaker 3 (39:25):
Yeah, that's a closed chapter. I think.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
I don't know. I still think the way she looked
at him at the end was like she was looking
at him like, did I make the right decision? I
think I did. I'm just going to walk away.

Speaker 2 (39:35):
I feel like they did that just in case down
the road they want to. You know, I don't think
they're going to continue with it, but maybe that's the
out if they do want to continue with it, because
we can be like, oh, ill, remember months ago she
gave that look when he left the elevator.

Speaker 4 (39:49):
So right, yeah, they haven't like solved the problem with them,
Like outside of them they having chemistry, they still EJ
is still a villain to some degree, and bell And
is still a person who won't look the other way.
So you're like, you're you know, you're always gonna have
an impasse. Like I even say, it's not even, it's

(40:10):
not even. It's not like they're mimicking like the Sara
Zander stuff, because even then that was more nuanced. This
is just cut and dry to me, Like, you know,
even even as you're sitting in the elevator, you're up
to a trick. You know, you're you're doing a scheme
right now, So it's like you can't know what she's
gonna go back to you. And then you know, when
we find out what you're up to with the hospital,

(40:31):
like she's gonna break up with you again, Like I
don't know. It's until they solve this problem with these
two characters, it's hard to root for them.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
Yeah, this is the part where fans can like clip
this and then send it to Martha Madison. Kudos to
her for being such an amazing actress, because here's here's why.
When she walked away from EJ and she walked down
the hospital Hall for some reason, I kept my eye

(40:59):
on her, and she was still like in character, she
still kind of stumbled a little bit from her from
her asthma's attack, and it was that moment like she
kind of held the wall a little bit and was
like oh yeah, and then like kept walking like that
is an actress, because she said, baby, I'm still on

(41:20):
this camera. Okay, whether you just see my back, I'm
going to give you a show, even back here in
the back. So kudos Martha Madison. She did that. I said, Baby,
I believe you. Now, I believe that. I believe that
Asthma that you even showed me the after effects m work.

(41:45):
All right. So that's e J and Bell. I mean,
in some weird way, I still root for them.

Speaker 3 (41:57):
I think they had their moment.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
I don't know. Well, let's talk about who's necks. Paulina what.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
Well made me laugh this week? That was part of eg.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
Yeah, part of yeah, that yeah, that yeah, that part
of her like running after EJ after the effects of
the blackout.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Baby, your electrician O us the one hundred and forty
six and.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
I want my money. Yeah, checker puppets, checker parkeet. No,
you know what made me laugh. Actually it was the
moment where Paulina stormed into the mansion when j e
J and Emily EJ We're having their fight, and the
look on Emily's which she was like she was like,

(42:52):
I'm going to talk to hil bl blah blah blah
blah blah. She around and gave him such a shit
ass look lunch by.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
So it's so hilarious to see when interact with other
people that she hasn't interact really interacted with before. And
I'm really loving the rapport that she has with EJ.
Where it's like it's clear they're not they're like they
they could treat each other better, but I've seen EJ

(43:22):
treat an alliance worse. So it's clear that's like there's
some kind of weird friendship there beyond them just being
co conspirators, Like I don't know, it's like they get
each other in a weird way.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (43:38):
Yeah, like she could almost be like another sister, Like
I think that that that that's probably yes, very much. So,
it's like that that like like they have a like
a like a poke each other kind of relationship like
siblings almost. Yeah, and and and each and e J

(44:01):
would leave his sister locked behind a electronic door and
then yell about how she had to get out of it.

Speaker 4 (44:12):
But also, yeah, like I mean, so what I mean,
I don't know. I feel like everyone this blackout was
very minimal to be like, I started behind the door
for a couple of hours.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
I'm made an elevator. The elevator is not going to drop.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
I made, like, you know, I think heretunate.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
If you have to peek, apparently becomes really yeah, yeah,
I don't That's the only time it becomes really unfortunate.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Michael Madis, what were you going to say?

Speaker 2 (44:43):
No, I was maybe that's maybe that's why Bell had
to stumble because she was trying to make it to
the restaurant.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
She had a whole asthma attack.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
The whole asthma attack, and you know trigger, you know. No,
I was just saying that the blackout, like the overall
point of the blackout was to facilitate movement with some
basically like two characters like we e J and Bell.
What's her face in Xander? Sarah and Xander. Yeah, we

(45:15):
haven't talked about it yet.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
But Cato and Leo Leo.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Starting to soften towards each other and the other two
the cop JJ and ANDOO.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
And also Rachel and Thomas. So yeah, yeah, it was
it was a lot of let's put these pairs together
and see what kind of chaos they can get into.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
Mhm, should we go in? It was almost like this
was I equate this to when those Popeye's biscuits were drugged, like,
because that that kind of facilitated a new chapter in
a lot of the storylines that we're going on.

Speaker 3 (45:58):
I get what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I
get it.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
Yeah, yeah, who did you want to go into? Justin?

Speaker 4 (46:06):
Oh oh, she was gonna say, oh, Thomas, should we
talking about Thomas and Rachel?

Speaker 2 (46:12):
What did you guys?

Speaker 3 (46:13):
Oh my god?

Speaker 2 (46:15):
Man, Like, haven't you done enough this year?

Speaker 1 (46:20):
She was so whiny. I was like, I was like,
Thomas is looking at her like.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
This girl like, no, I want the the get out
of jail car.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
You didn't pull it.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
It's not George Like I I, oh my, okay.

Speaker 4 (46:43):
She was being a bad friend, but I was kind
of on her side about the secret. I was kind
of with her on that what do you mean? I thought, one,
it's incredibly And then in this part, baby like, I'm
glad that they brought this back up because I completely
forgot about it. In relation that it wasn't just her
seeing them kiss, it's also the fact that Kat lived

(47:06):
with her while she was pretending to be Abigail, and like, yeah,
when she said that, I thought, Okay, now, Chad, now
you're just an idiot. Now, yeah, no, I think that
that was going to come out, and you did it
at once. At any point, think Rachel's in the house,
Rachel can say something to her cousin, Thomas, who she
spends a lot, you know what I mean. That just

(47:27):
seemed like a big oversight for.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Him to sea.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
And the idea of like, it's not your secret to
tell is not something they can really expect a child
to understand. Even though she did technically go over that
with Marlena, because she did tell Marlena right after it happened.
The more the point that I actually hit on is
not that she told Thomas. It's why she told Thomas.

(47:53):
She told Thomas to take a fight over a stupid
game of Monopoly. That's how this child is No.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Wait now, to be fair, Monopoly will start some fights, taboo,
Like these are games that you know yeah, yeah, so
I get it. But also it's like girl. But also

(48:22):
you have to remember Chad and Kat thought Rachel didn't
see anything because she didn't say anything. But Rachel just
didn't say anything even though she did see it, because.

Speaker 3 (48:33):
She's got anything to them, she said.

Speaker 4 (48:38):
But also, Rachel, even even if she didn't know about
the kiss, she still told him about Kat was pretending
to be your brother. That to me, that part was
the biggest the bigger Bob show. People were focusing on
the kiss. I'm like, Okay, well that hails in comparison
to the fact.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
But didn't Thomas know that?

Speaker 4 (48:55):
No, That's what I'm saying. It was a big oversight
for Chad not to even think Rachel would said that. See,
I'd be more worried about her saying that than anything else.
That's the part that threw me off of like, Okay,
this is a big oversight.

Speaker 2 (49:08):
She tell him that.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
I thought Thomas knew because right right right before she
was going to be introduced to the kids, that's when everything.

Speaker 3 (49:23):
Yes came out.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
Yeah yeah, and she was always introduced her as a friend,
a new friend, not yeah, keeping it away who she
or they thought she was.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
Rachel needs my ass.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
What she does. She made like she makes it so
hard to feel sorry for her, and it's like, oh
but she shot someone, Oh but she has trauma, and
it's like she has no concept of consequences zero.

Speaker 1 (49:57):
Or not.

Speaker 4 (49:58):
You guys, if you guys can defend Sophia, you're telling
me you're going to give Rachel more more of a
hard time than you give Sophia.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
But I think Sophia. I think because with Sophia it
wasn't a consistent pattern of behavior, you know what I mean.
Like Sophia was when she around the time that she
started to do some ta she got sneaky. But to us,
the way it was explained to us, and look, they
could recond this, but I'm just repeating back. The way

(50:26):
that it was explained to us when the character was
introduced was that she was Holly's friend, they had been
friends for years since they were children, that their mothers
had had known each other through pta, that she came
from a good family, and said us. Basically, what I'm
saying is that there was there was no indicator Again,

(50:48):
could this could be changed? There was no indicator of
any behavior other than that of a normal teenager up
until the Tate drama with Rachel. Ever since she could talk,
it's been a consistent pattern of lies and snobbery and

(51:10):
zero understanding of consequences in terms of what's what's mischief
and what's an actual crime, Like she doesn't actually have
an understanding of that, like the and and put that
into the perspective of what she told Thomas this week,
like she did that to purposely hurt him. She didn't know,

(51:33):
She probably didn't have a have a real understanding in
her mind of that it was this, it's she's dropping
this gigantic bombshell on her cousin that probably did not
even register in her mind. All she knew was she
got her feelings hurt, so she had to retaliate.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
Basically, what you're saying is when Thomas went low, she
went lower. Yeah, yes, she needs.

Speaker 4 (52:02):
Obvious that she's I mean, she's reeling over the Christen stuff.
I mean, the get out of jail free card was
the biggest anhil I mean, like they practically punched us
in the face with that one. I don't know, I
just didn't think. I to me, it should have already
come out just in general, like their cousins, they spent
a lot of time together. Rachel should have already let

(52:23):
that slip out to Thomas in even in a friendly manner.
So I don't know, I just didn't think it was
that agree she was being a brat by sort of
musing it against him. But like I said, she went
low and she went lower.

Speaker 3 (52:35):
But look, no, no, there's there's low and then there's
like the bottom, like there's so many other things that
she Yeah.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
I mean, she just told him. She told him the truth, though,
I mean, let's be real. She didn't, like you said,
Thomas's world. She was being snotty, saying, oh, your dad's
so great, let me tell you what your dad did,
and she told me exactly.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
But it's like she's she's a child and has zero
zero And yeah, there's part of it is that she's
a child, so she has zero concept of what's like,
what's the line, what's the line where we cross from
I'm being a brat to I'm purposely hurting someone who

(53:20):
loves me.

Speaker 1 (53:21):
You're gonna have to be give Rachel more credit than
that that that little girl is smart.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
Intelligence does not equal emotional intelligence. Intelligence does not equal empathy,
And to me, Rachel is a character who has very
little empathy.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
She shouldn't have said nothing. She should have let him
keep the get out of jail card. She should have
rolled the dice and actually landed on the theme that
corresponded to the number Rachel being a lull.

Speaker 2 (54:00):
He's always that.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
It was too much back to being the kid that
no other kids want to play.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
With, because at this point the Thomas would have went
up to him and said, you got a friend and me.
But now he's like, leave, get out right now, the
end of you and me. It's too late.

Speaker 6 (54:25):
God hm anyway, uh, and then.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
There was uh Susan and Marlena. Yeah, we forgot about
that too, So that was that was actually a nice scene.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
I like that we don't forgot about it, we just
hadn't gotten to it.

Speaker 2 (54:47):
Yeah, it was a nice scene.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
I like.

Speaker 4 (54:48):
This is where I give Stacy a lot of credit.
I think the Christen stuff of you know, people say
what they want, they like I leading, they like her whatever.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
I think.

Speaker 4 (54:58):
This is where to me, Stacy infuses her uniqueness because
I think, and again it's sacrilegious, I do, but I.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Think when.

Speaker 4 (55:08):
When they brought Eileen back to play Susan, I think
they dealt into nineties Susan in the craziness and cookiness.
I think what Stacy has brought to this is I
think she infuses Susan with a bit more maturity. Like
she's still kookie, she's still a little off, but she's
to me, who Susan should be now thirty years later.

(55:29):
She's like, Susan should not be the same person she
was in the nineties in that you know, the craziness
in the kookiness worked better there, but it makes sense now,
like she's you know, she's a little off, she's she's
got her quirks, but you know, she recognized it. And
I've seen this over the past few times she's been
on of course, especially I think they've dialed it up
a bit for her being really astute, especially when it

(55:52):
comes to EJ, when it comes to Johnny, and like
being able to be herself. But also, you know, she's
no dumby. Susan's never been stupid. So I think I
think that's what Stacey really brings to the table. And
she ups the Auntie a lot of times when I
don't think she gets enough credit for that for the
Susan stuff.

Speaker 3 (56:09):
Agreed, Yeah, And I think that, like, yeah, because before
she was kind of pushing mar Lena a little bit
in a sense of, like, you know, saying things that
Marlena didn't want to hear. I think, yeah, to your credit,
to your to your point about giving her credit of
her maturity, that yeah, she kind of sat back more

(56:30):
and let Marlin and let herself listen to Marlena rather
than make assumptions, Oh, this is wrong with you, this
is wrong with you, like just let Marlena kind of
talk through it and be the friend and say, well,
it's clear neither one of us knows what's wrong with you,
but something is wrong.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Yeah. I feel like there was scene reminded me of
why they became friends originally, like it, you know, and
why Marlena always had such had such a connection to Susan,
even though she obstensively was on the opposite side of
her and in a lot of those early schemes.

Speaker 4 (57:07):
But the fact that they could be friends and still
be friends like this scene reminded me of like, oh,
they're actually friends. It's not just Marlena tolerating her craziness,
you know, because they've known each other for so long,
Like there's an actual friendship there.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
Yes, lastly took a blackout for this to happen. Chad
and Kate, Kat, Chad and Cat Kate is it? Is?

(57:51):
It strange though that as they started kissing, my first
thought was, Oh, so you're not going to take a shower.

Speaker 2 (58:00):
Or go to a bedroom?

Speaker 1 (58:01):
Yeah that I mean you you opened the door and
you had just finished the workout.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
I mean some people like it dirty like that for your.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
First time, not for your first time. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Or did anyone else think Mark was going to come in?

Speaker 1 (58:18):
You know, I didn't. I didn't think. I didn't think that,
but I was. But I was also like, where is everybody?
Because y'all just out here on this look out?

Speaker 7 (58:31):
Well, they explained it, you know Felicity, which you know right,
Mark's not out of jail yet, but it.

Speaker 1 (58:42):
Took a blackout for this to happen, and I'm like,
oh my god, this is just going so slow. Yeah,
and then it's like, how do you explain to Julie
talking about Julie's like, well, that's all you guys did, right,
It's like you don't want to know, you don't want

(59:03):
to know what they did. Okay, let me tell you
if those walls could talk baby, they will be, yeah,
why are.

Speaker 2 (59:13):
You showering first?

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (59:16):
They would say, why aren't you showering first? You're not
gonna shower first?

Speaker 1 (59:23):
I feel like it was it would sound like like
like a typical mom if you don't get your nasty,
crusty self in some soap and water. At least, that's
what my mom would say.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
Mm hmm, exactly, yeah, exactly, Dylin right, well.

Speaker 3 (59:46):
Yeah right, And Julie is not even the worst one.
That's the thing. I feel like Julie has tempered quite
a bit. Yeah and yeah, and she doesn't you know,
she was she was, she could she could have said
some things and some things that we'll probably hear from
Jack and Jennifer imminently. And I'm just gonna have to

(01:00:09):
just be like this the whole time.

Speaker 4 (01:00:11):
But also, like like we said before, like I think
it's perfectly okay for people to dislike each other. It's
when you start sort of imparting that in demanding other
people do the same, Like if Julie won't stay cat,
if Jack and Jennifer want to hate her, cool, you
just don't have her right And I also think like
but also asking Chad about her is poking in, you

(01:00:33):
know what I mean, Like, why are you asking if
you're not okay with it? He knows you're not okay
with it. He told you to butt out respectfully. So
unless unless you come around to it. You're really not
interested in what he's doing with Kat. You're just trying
to you know, you're trying to be You're trying to
stir up something here.

Speaker 2 (01:00:50):
July.

Speaker 4 (01:00:51):
Yeah, well that needs to move out too.

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
If Thomas ends up having an opinion based on the
knowledge that Rachel gave him, that that's different. That's given
a whole different consideration because that's his child and Chad's
number one Yeah, Chad's number one priority is his child's
well being. So if Thomas has has a problem with it,
that creates a whole that's a whole different thing because

(01:01:20):
that's a conversation between them.

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
Mm hmmm mm hmm. Well, thank goodness, thank goodness for
the blackout, because it did allow movement with a few
of the story lines.

Speaker 2 (01:01:42):
Sand and Xander and Sarah got busy are kind of reconciling.
I think he agreed to go to therapy.

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
Right, mm hmm did he that's later?

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
Is it later? My bad. I thought we were doing
a comprehensive blackout.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
Uh, you have a Xander, and I mean we can
talk about it. It's fine.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
I mean, there wasn't much to I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
It was just it was just them in bed having
dessert post dessert, talking about the future, which I'm like,
all right, well, I guess I guess we're back on
the the Xander Sarah train.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
Was still a big secret.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
And then of course he agreed moving forward, we're gonnah
And it's like then it's like that like down that
they do as he's sitting there, like yeah, it's like,
oh god, when that hits the fan. All right, let's

(01:02:52):
move on to our last top story, which is dual identities.
I'm sorry, Hi, Stephanie Johnson. My name is Tony Moore,
host of a podcast called Edition Days. Listen. I saw
you explain what you were doing with your mom's laptop

(01:03:17):
and you know, attending Anna station sans blog interview. Uh,
I just I just wonder did it ever cross your
mind to not mention that you're anistation Sands, but mentioned
that you are the publicists and that you had to
monitor the blog interview. Therefore, that would be the reason

(01:03:41):
why you were on the computer in your mom's office.
Did that ever occur to you? Did you even think
about that? Oh you didn't. Oh you just wanted to
tell somebody that you Anna Stasia Sands and then you
just decided to say that the EJ who was going
to like loom that over your head because you don't

(01:04:01):
know what he's got going on until now you indebted
to a Demara m Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Yeah, I thought she gave herself up. Like I'm like, oh, really,
you're you're giving yourself up now, okay for all of that,
after all of that effort to keep your identity concealed,
and now one little confrontation between and you're like stop,
I'm I'm ant stop I'm in. I was like, okay,

(01:04:35):
now EJ has leverage over her, so now they're at
a standstill.

Speaker 4 (01:04:40):
Like I don't I just yeah, I was like I
didn't fully understand this like compromise that I had.

Speaker 2 (01:04:45):
I was like, I mean I guess he could tell
on her, but I mean I don't know even that's
like that's like not a big like okay, so he
outs her is Anasthasia Like I still don't.

Speaker 4 (01:05:01):
Sorry, go ahead, she's acting like she's a senator, like
a PR person. This is gonna you know what I mean,
Like it just seemed weird that like I understand you,
like again, you're a professional, you want to be taken seriously.
But also this isn't I understand this more. I understand
this more only fans or something. I just I don't know.

(01:05:25):
I think they're they're playing up this this this romance novel,
like it's softcore porn or like smother or something where
oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
But also like companies are really cracking down on the
way you use your computer usage now it's it's it's
it's a little ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (01:05:48):
I still know if a person being an author would
be that big of a.

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
Deal, it wouldn't like even even like it's not.

Speaker 4 (01:05:58):
Yeah, yeah, I know, I do get, I do get
the more of the I don't want my information to
be out because I don't want excess coming finding me
or you know that type of situation.

Speaker 3 (01:06:10):
But yeah, that part I think it had, uh was
a lot more real a lot more realistic. We found
out how just how realistic it was. H Yeah, I'm
glad that at LEASTYJ was mildly impressed. Dylan Matthews excuse me.

Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Oh well, I mean that's also debatable. But also I
feel like, uh, now she's indebted to him.

Speaker 2 (01:06:41):
Mm hmmm. Now he has leverage over her if she
wants to keep the secret. Yeah, that's you don't give
a demyr leverage. But even now, it's like weak leverage,
you know, is probably even if EJ tries to use
it to like swing his whatever around with it, Like,
it's not that like, go ahead, just tell on my business.

(01:07:06):
It's fine.

Speaker 3 (01:07:07):
Yeah, it's like, it's not it's not the when I
say when, because it's going to come out eventually, I
say when it comes out, it's not going to be
the end of the world. I think it's just too
fresh in her mind right now. It's too new. You know,
she didn't anticipate it being quite as successful, taking off
quite as big, and making her as notorious as she

(01:07:28):
now is so quickly. So I think she's I think
it's just taking some time to settle in.

Speaker 1 (01:07:35):
But she could have kept that to herself.

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
Yeah yeah, yeah, she did herself no favors.

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
Yeah no, it's like so now it's just waiting around
to see how EJ's going to use that against her.

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
Well, he basically said, as long as you like keep
talking me up, basically like you're in my corner for
you know, my pr person. So I mean, I meanlessly
to ask wasn't that much. It was basically, continue to
do your job and I'll continue exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
And the only thing I can think of is that
she's gonna somehow stumble upon whatever Gwen and e J's
plan for this, the real plan for the free clinic,
EJ about it, and then he's going to be like, well,
I mean, tell on me. I'm gonna say that you're
Anastagia biaber Housen. And then she's going to be.

Speaker 3 (01:08:23):
Like, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
That's the only like way I think he that's the
only thing like I would see this going this going
like this is the setup for her to find out
something about him, and then he tries to use it
as leverage to keep her quiet about his crap. And
he's gonna remember the deal we made.

Speaker 3 (01:08:49):
Yeah, I could say that, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
Do you remember anyway? And now.

Speaker 2 (01:09:04):
I pulled that out of my ass.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
No you do, and now insert and welcome to Salem.
Michael Roarick a k A. Jeremy Horton.

Speaker 3 (01:09:18):
Oh here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:09:21):
I think this was from a at least from an
aesthetic point of view, a good Jeremy Jerremy, excuse me, Jeremy.
Good Jeremy Horton recast, like not end all pretty like
what's his face was, but like a mature version of that. Yeah, yep, okay,

(01:09:42):
what about this? Okay, he plays this guy. Michael Rourke
plays Jeremy Horton, the son of Mike Horton, played by
Roor Critchlow.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
Mm hmm, mind blown.

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
This guy.

Speaker 4 (01:10:03):
I'm really interested in this not only for the Stephanie
Jeremy stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
It's the digging of the old past.

Speaker 4 (01:10:11):
It's I didn't see the Chad angle coming because I
don't know about you guys, but I forgot Chad came
after him. So when he showed up there, I thought
that was going to be a confrontation between those two.
So I I like how they're setting it up, because
you know, once Chad finds out what he did to Stephanie,
that's going to be an issue. The fact that he's

(01:10:32):
now Rachel and Thomas's teacher, which was a weird thing.
I was like teacher. I was like, oh that's interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:10:40):
Yeah, Well let's so, let's so let's back this up
a little bit. We have we have been kind of
slowly anticipating the Jeremy Horton return. We have, yes, for
a while now, he's been mentioned several times. And then
as we've said on this show, yes, as we have
said on this show the past few weeks. Uh, Jeremy Horton,

(01:11:03):
who was last played by Trevor Donovan in two thousand
and five.

Speaker 1 (01:11:08):
I want.

Speaker 3 (01:11:12):
So it's been it's been almost twenty years. Been, it's been.
It's been a very, very very long time since we've
seen and even heard about this character. Was a piece
of smut on my shoe the last time we saw
him smut on my shoe.

Speaker 1 (01:11:32):
Why was why?

Speaker 3 (01:11:34):
Because he was emotionally abusive. He was a criminal. He
and and you can look this up. He was so
abusive to Stephanie, like Alex specifically said, did he hit you? No?
He did, however, try to drown her once. Yeah. He
was a piece of crap. He was a terrible human being.

(01:11:58):
There was nothing I found, nothing redeemable about him.

Speaker 2 (01:12:02):
Mhm h.

Speaker 3 (01:12:07):
It feels too.

Speaker 1 (01:12:08):
Kind now, come on there. I said that all these
all these characters, they all have a redeeming quality about yes, but.

Speaker 3 (01:12:16):
Yeah, I'm talking about that.

Speaker 1 (01:12:18):
Well, well, you want to hear something I wasn't watching
back then.

Speaker 3 (01:12:25):
You said that because you didn't remember this character at all, and.

Speaker 1 (01:12:29):
I remember that. I remember the character. I remember, I
remember back then. I remember Jet Carver, who was played
by Marcus Patrick, because I was also like, I could
have been Jet. Rachel Melvin when she met me, was like,
you could have played Jet.

Speaker 3 (01:12:46):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:12:48):
Whatever.

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
Maybe maybe the last one.

Speaker 2 (01:12:53):
Maybe that's why I stopped.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
So yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
Again, So this character has not been mentioned, seen or
mentioned in almost twenty years. Now he's here and from
an information we got, it seems as if his criminal
and I do remember this, when he exited, his criminal
shenanigans were publicly exposed.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
Yeah, because he had.

Speaker 3 (01:13:24):
Yes, his abuse of Stephanie was not mentioned, and it
seemed that Stephanie this week, when she was retelling Alex,
the story seems to confirm that she has not mentioned
this man in years. She's purposely tried not to think

(01:13:45):
about him. She vaguely heard through the grapevine that he
got his life together, but it seems as if once
that door was closed, she wanted to keep it closed
and did not mention anything to anyone about how he
treated her.

Speaker 1 (01:13:58):
The door is closed.

Speaker 3 (01:14:01):
The only person who might she might have confided in
or might have some firsthand knowledge of what Jeremy did
would have been Rachel Melvin's Chelsea Brady. Yes, because she
was there. That's the only person who might have some
knowledge of this. But everyone else, so it would be

(01:14:23):
no surprise that Jeremy walks in the door. He's welcomed
with open arms by Julie. Chad says, oh, ab Gail
used to say so many kind things about you, blah
blah blah blah blah, because probably nobody has that knowledge.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
They only have knowledge of his illegal activities, is what
you're saying. Would Julie sut the door on him?

Speaker 1 (01:14:44):
Though?

Speaker 2 (01:14:45):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:14:47):
No, that's the other thing.

Speaker 4 (01:14:50):
Although again, like you said, this is twenty years ago,
So even even if she did know that, who's to
say she wouldn't say, you're a changed person, come on in,
like I don't know. I mean, yeah, we're we're saying
it now, and it was awful behavior. It was also
twenty years ago, so I you know, who knows what
Jeremy warton.

Speaker 2 (01:15:08):
We're getting now.

Speaker 4 (01:15:09):
I'm hoping he's more of a villain. It'd be nice
to have a horn villain around, but I don't know
what we're gonna get, you know, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15:17):
You're gonna get. I don't want teacher Thomas's teacher.

Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
I don't want villain in a way of like abusing
women or like emotionally abusing.

Speaker 3 (01:15:27):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I don't. Yeah, it wouldn't make
sense to bring such a disliked character back after all
this time and have him be the same as he was.
So I'm willing to believe that there's been growth there.
But I'll tell you what really just had me shook
this week was was Abigail Klein's portrayal when she was

(01:15:52):
talking with Alex. Oh my god, I could feel in
her body how she just shrunk into herself talking about him.
She perfectly encapsulated what an abuse victim feels like when
they're talking about a past experience like that, where it's

(01:16:14):
like she's, you know, she has all the accomplishments, she's
in pr she's an accomplished author, she has a wonderful
relationship with a guy that she loves, and in a
span of thirty seconds that she starts talking about this guy,
she was shrinking into herself with tears in her eyes
like rush and saying like, I know I'm not that person.

(01:16:36):
I know that that's it was a long time ago.

Speaker 8 (01:16:38):
But butlving those scenes with Abigail and Rob kind of
drew me back in because I think I was like,
do something on my laptop on my phone, but I
just could feel.

Speaker 2 (01:16:54):
It going on, and so that's when I kind of
tuned back in. And I gotta say, like they had
a good like it was talking about trauma and whatever,
but she and Rob and even Rob's response to it
as Alex and his reaction to everything, it was just
kind of like I was like, oh wow, these two,
like this is what makes a good couple right here.

(01:17:15):
And then there was a moment where when Alex was
leaving and he kind of like he gestured to her like,
you know, gave her his hand or something, and I
was like, I think that was a rob thing. I
don't think that was like character or plannder script. I
think that was just Rob being like good work and
you know, because yeah, Abigail definitely brought the emotions to

(01:17:37):
the surface, and.

Speaker 1 (01:17:39):
The way she answered that door and saw him was
kind of like the past knocking at your door.

Speaker 3 (01:17:46):
It just yeah, bravo, really bravo to Rob and to
Abigail this week, Like this is another scene that just
pulled me in and really has made me eat a
lot of crow because we know I have I was,
I was not on board. I was not and Alex

(01:18:09):
and Stephanie stan but you guys have made me a believer.
You you really have it just in who no, when Alex.

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
And Alex is a good boyfriend, Alex is a good boyfriend,
Like this is already that, this is really really this
really hit it home this week.

Speaker 1 (01:18:31):
Really, why why are you so late to the party?
Are Sally?

Speaker 3 (01:18:35):
No? I'm I've been here for a minute, but it
was she was.

Speaker 2 (01:18:39):
Great the party. But she's been here a little while.

Speaker 3 (01:18:41):
I was, yeah, i've been I was, I was late
to the party, and in the beginning I was like, no,
not happening.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
But now she's now she's on her like third third
glass of punch and now she's just really.

Speaker 3 (01:18:52):
Vib No, I'm I'm what, I I love you know
what it is. Sometimes it's just timing.

Speaker 1 (01:19:02):
You took a long time.

Speaker 3 (01:19:04):
It's timing. I think back then for them when I
said never ever, ever, with this couple. I think it
just wasn't right. This feels right, don't feel right?

Speaker 1 (01:19:16):
What a feel?

Speaker 2 (01:19:17):
Meghan Bizarre had a comment, we've almost forgotten he used
to bang Sloan. We just forget about.

Speaker 1 (01:19:23):
We haven't just forget about, we haven't forgotten.

Speaker 2 (01:19:29):
I think I got mad when we were going I
told you all, I got mad when we were going through.
Like I was building the graphics for the dish and
Daze of Wars and I had to find a picture
of Melinda and Sloan, and I literally like I had
like this. I was like, ah, fuck Sloan, Okay. And
then I was going through like looking for the pictures
and I was just like this was terrible. This was
oh god, this was terrible. I like such a like like.

Speaker 1 (01:19:53):
I didn't mind, did.

Speaker 2 (01:19:55):
Not was not a fan.

Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
Yeah, to be clear, I've always thought that Alex was
a good person. I just didn't think he had it
in him to be relationship material, and at the time
he didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:20:07):
Now he's going through his moments as a raggedy single man,
you know, yes, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:20:14):
Yeah, time, Like someone.

Speaker 2 (01:20:16):
Said in the chat, he's shown growth, mm.

Speaker 3 (01:20:18):
Hmm, yeah, yeah, it's going to be a storyline to watch.

Speaker 1 (01:20:27):
Indeed, and that has been your top storylines everybody. And
now we're going to move into our tidbits, but before
we do, just a quick reminder follow us on social media.

You're over at JLJ Media on YouTube and where all
podcasts can be found. Now we're gonna go over our
one and only tidbit because the second one we already
kind of went over. But this one is called old Friend.

(01:21:16):
Let me tell you some THEO is not having it.
And when he was in that Horton town Square and
JJ was yelling about that curfew, he had went back
to that night and they probably could have used flashbacks
to make it more dramatic, but they couldn't because it
was Kyler and not him, and they probably wouldn't go
go back and film that. But however, Comma, JJ was

(01:21:37):
hit with a with a harsh reality and I feel
like he he was questioning himself when he was sitting there,
because that whole interaction, like, was Tony you sounded like
an auctioneer. That whole interaction was a flashback. And kudos
to Tyler Joseph Andrews who plays THEO for his betrayal

(01:22:01):
and just the little nuances that he did and and
the flickers of just like being reminded of like what happened,
but the courage to kind of stand up and say,
like you would you almost did it again?

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
Mm hmm. Yeah, these This was another moment in the
week where I may have been distracted in the scene
that drew me back in was these two and it
was mostly I think Tyler had most of the dialogue,
but just like the intense moment between the two and yeah,
I think even though you know, the storyline has dictated

(01:22:39):
that they were cool with each other, they did business together,
and now suddenly it does it just makes it. It
does make sense that he, you know, he has the
the PTSD, was kind of triggered by what he saw
and then JJ being plus, I just have an an
issue when I see a police officer being like, no

(01:23:01):
matter who it's at.

Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
We got a curfew, get out of here.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
I'm like, shut the fuck up, Like like, unless they're
actively committing a crime, like shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
Could just be like, hey, excuse me, we got a
curfew going on. You go ahead and get tonight. Yeah,
we got a curfew. You know what a curfew is.
It's a time for you to not be here, now,

(01:23:35):
get it.

Speaker 3 (01:23:37):
Yeah. And this was I mean it was when this
originally happened, you know, it was such a we talked,
we we must I mean, everybody was talking about it
at the time. You think this was the storyline that
won James Reynolds is Emmy as well, because it was

(01:23:59):
just so raw and there were so many layers to it.
And it did, like you said, Tony, it did feel
almost like they were recreating the scene this week and
with with his PTSD being triggered and him freezing, and
that was the part where I feel like JJ started
to really question like did I do something wrong this time?

(01:24:26):
You know, did I make a mistake? Have I not
learned anything? Have I you know, he's questioning and I
think this is gonna really hit home and really be
picked apart by Jada, And I think this is a
good opportunity, a good storyline for Jada too as the
commissioner to pick apart the specific dialogue that her officers

(01:24:49):
use specifically when they're out on the street to when
there's an emergency, because there's already been a prior incident
like this, and if she is going to be that
type of commissioner that this this won't happen on her watch,
then it's up to her to take charge of it.

Speaker 4 (01:25:12):
Yeah, I'm kind of questioning that too. Is this going
to be like a part two of that storyline or
is this you know, I would questioned whether how much
of that original interaction would play into it. And again
we've heard the old talk about it in the PTSD,
but having them basically recreate the scene again, I think

(01:25:33):
definitely sold theo's position a lot more. Yeah, I'm wondering
how far they're going to get into this, Like is
it going to be a part two of this storyline
and we're getting like, you know, social justice kind of
weaved into it, or or is it going to stay
with JJ in in THEO interpersonal.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
I don't know, but I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:25:55):
Definitely so interested. I thought both guys did an amazing
job this week. I thought, like I said, recreating the scene,
which I wouldn't have thought to do, But I like
that they did it. It definitely sold theo's position a little
bit more, especially with people who were questioning, like, Okay,
I thought he was over it. I understand PTSD, but

(01:26:15):
is it is he going too far in his rage
against JJ?

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
But yeah, I think he sold it this week.

Speaker 1 (01:26:22):
Yeah, I definitely think that his biggest issue is the
fact that JJ is a cop again after he did
what he did, like I think, you know him somehow
he was able to work with him and be friends
with him and everything like that. But then he said
Christmas of last year is when he kind of last
like interacted with him, and JJ never understood why. So

(01:26:46):
something must have happened, And so I think I think
there's more to this than just JJ being a cop
and what happened. I think I think something post to
be an issue too. Yeah, that's just that's.

Speaker 2 (01:27:01):
Something to do with the Cleare breakup.

Speaker 3 (01:27:03):
Maybe it could you know, it could have been all
of it. It could have been you know, it could
have started with JJ rejoining the forest Christmas of last
year and him hearing about it, and then you know,
as we said, since then, Theo's gone through a lot.
He's been you know, it's you know, it's nothing, nothing

(01:27:26):
has quite gone his way. He's been triggered, and he's
been kind of emotional. He's been like on an emotional,
real emotional journey. So it's it's probably all of these
things coming to the surface, and in that moment his
PTSD is triggered. Why wouldn't it be he was literally
in the exact same spot with the exact same cop

(01:27:48):
of course it was. And then maybe it's he's probably
questioning like why, like why didn't you use different language? JJ?
Like why like what I have learned from this?

Speaker 8 (01:28:02):
Have you not?

Speaker 3 (01:28:04):
I think the general point I'm trying to make is
that if there's a part two to this storyline, I
think it's less about necessarily action needing to be taken,
because I don't think anybody did necessarily anything wrong here.
It's more of just creating an open, a more open
dialogue between these two characters, between JJ and his role

(01:28:29):
in the police department and Jada. It's just a lot
of things need to be ironed out.

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
Yeah, uh uh yeah. I think I think there's gonna
just there's gonna be a lot to discover because we
have to understand theocide and how he's feeling, and especially
since he got back to the station and he mentioned
it to Jada and it was just basically like I'm
tired and I want to go home, and he was like,
I'm out, and Paulina gave that look like child, I'll

(01:28:57):
find out what the tea is, I'll talk to you.
So so yeah, that's it. Hm, well that was it.
That's our only tidbit. Anybody Michael mattisond you have some
thoughts about it? Did you say something you don't know?

Speaker 3 (01:29:15):
He said, he said things. Yeah, yeah, this is everything
is This is not a coming to a head week.
It's it's everything coming to the surface week. Hmm if that.

Speaker 2 (01:29:33):
Makes sense for that storyline, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:29:36):
For this world, for this and others, it's like things
aren't nothing. There's nothing. There's no car crash about to happen,
there's nothing like serious like about to explode or anything
like that. This is just a lot a lot of
people's emotions are finally coming to the surface.

Speaker 1 (01:29:52):
Well, they need to hurry up and get to the
surface and bloom into a flower or something. We ready.
Speaking of being ready, that was your week of days.
And now we're gonna move on to our favorite part
of the show, which are our segments. We're gonna start
with mine, which is Tony's official Today Snaps Award. I

(01:30:20):
have no picture, I have no video for my three
Snaps Award because this person, unbeknownst to us, did something
for Salem that we didn't know we needed, we needed,
but we didn't know, and we didn't know it was

(01:30:40):
gonna come from this person. And this person is the electrician.
Thank you for messing up and causing an entire blackout
in the city, because had it not been for you,
we wouldn't have seen Xander and Sarah climb in the

(01:31:04):
bed together and talk about and discuss their possible future together.
We wouldn't have had Kat and Chad finally finally confess
their true feelings for each other and also do it.
We wouldn't have had Rachel and Thomas get into a

(01:31:26):
fussment which would lead to Thomas being sick from school
because Rachel decided to be a little brat and drop
a bomb On Thomas. We wouldn't have had the moment
between EJ and Bell, knowing that EJ still loves Bell
but Bell wants nothing to do with him. So thank you.
Oh and the rekindling of Gwynn and Leo just one

(01:31:48):
step closer to a better friendship. So thank you, sir.
Thank you for your non skilled having self and causing
our city of Salem to be blacked out to bring
all of these people together, you did a service that
we needed. I would say you shined a light, but

(01:32:08):
you didn't. So my three Snaps Award goes to that
unsung unknown hero, the Electrician. I feel like that was
the best way I've ever given the three Snaps Award.
Now it's time for.

Speaker 2 (01:32:33):
Ten, all right. This week's caption that photo comes courtesy
of Dan Furigal emphatically talking to uh Wan, and this
week's caption goes to Dylan Matthews, who's in chat.

Speaker 1 (01:32:48):
I think.

Speaker 2 (01:32:50):
His caption for the last time, Gwen, let me listen
to Life of the Showgirl and Bloody Peace Living under
a Rock. Taylor Swift put out a new album and
apparently it's good.

Speaker 1 (01:33:07):
So you heard it was good.

Speaker 2 (01:33:10):
Well, I've seen mixedure. Well, I follow the people I
follow are all Taylor Swift fans, so of course they're
all saying it's good. They're all saying it's good. It's
like so full of insight, and you know, the best
album ever written and apparently it's sold more than the
most copies of single album is something, so you know.

Speaker 1 (01:33:29):
It was two point seven million in the first day.

Speaker 3 (01:33:33):
Which I might have inspired this caption because I was
one of those people telling Dylan Matthews, this is what
I'm doing right now.

Speaker 1 (01:33:41):
I will say, Apparently there's a song that's very insightful
about Travis Kelcey.

Speaker 3 (01:33:47):
It's called Wood. It's not even subtle.

Speaker 2 (01:33:51):
Does what does that mean?

Speaker 3 (01:33:52):
It's not even subtle?

Speaker 2 (01:33:55):
What does that mean? Though?

Speaker 3 (01:33:56):
The song title is called would and you can look
it up.

Speaker 2 (01:34:02):
But what's the wood? I don't get it.

Speaker 1 (01:34:11):
Oh, Michael Madison is pulling on me and I love it.
That has been tention. I love it. I love that
he will oh it you bring me? Oh And now
it's time for.

Speaker 4 (01:34:35):
All right everyone, I'm taking you back to October twenty nine,
twenty eleven. This is when Nadia Burelin ended her second
run of four years as Chloe Lane. She would later
come back in twenty thirteen. The reason why I picked
this is because this was the beginning of them, ending
the feud between Chloe and Nicole and starting their inevitable

(01:34:55):
relationship as besties and after this, if you check out
those are days, extend it into sort of their relationship
over the years, from hated enemies when they were younger
to one of Salem's probably their best example of friendship
over the years in the conflicts they faced.

Speaker 2 (01:35:12):
So yeah, go check that out.

Speaker 4 (01:35:14):
That was October twenty nine, twenty eleven, when Naughty b
Orlan ended her second run at Dazus Chloe Lane.

Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
What was that date again?

Speaker 2 (01:35:24):
October twenty ninet twenty eleven?

Speaker 1 (01:35:32):
October or did you mean September?

Speaker 2 (01:35:37):
Maybe I miss September.

Speaker 1 (01:35:38):
Oops. Oh, I was like, we really traveled far from
those were the days?

Speaker 3 (01:35:46):
Well, now we're officially in October, so yeah, but it's
not October third today, guys, I.

Speaker 1 (01:35:54):
Mean this year October third met the last show girl wearing.

Speaker 2 (01:35:57):
Pink m What does she mean by wood r?

Speaker 1 (01:36:06):
Sally? Would you like to recite some of the lyrics
so that Michael Maddis could understand the song would hold
on will all you look that up? Bringing us back?
That was oos well, thank you R. Sally. Is there

(01:36:33):
a line or two that you would like to share
from the song?

Speaker 3 (01:36:40):
Oh fine, redwood Tree, it ain't hard to see. His
love was the key that opened my thighs.

Speaker 2 (01:36:49):
I was talking about his deck.

Speaker 1 (01:36:53):
My mother watches this show.

Speaker 2 (01:36:54):
Mike madis sorry, mother Mildred, mother Moore.

Speaker 3 (01:36:58):
I mean she does knock on wood, she does walk too.
It's look, you know what a double entendres. I don't
have to explain this to you, I know, but it's fun.

Speaker 1 (01:37:13):
You know what other double entendre song I love is
thirty four thirty five by Ariana Grande. That's a good one.

Speaker 3 (01:37:23):
I I love how we we think we've matured?

Speaker 2 (01:37:27):
Oh, I know, I haven't. I'm forty five going on ten.
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:37:35):
You're forty five.

Speaker 2 (01:37:36):
I'm forty five, almost forty five and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:37:41):
I'm the oldest one, see what, I'm not the oldest one.

Speaker 2 (01:37:45):
No, you're not the oldest one.

Speaker 7 (01:37:46):
I'm Those were the days?

Speaker 1 (01:37:54):
Where are we at?

Speaker 3 (01:37:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:37:58):
Me?

Speaker 3 (01:38:00):
Yes, and and.

Speaker 2 (01:38:03):
No.

Speaker 3 (01:38:04):
This week's It's a Gift goes to Miss Paulina Price,
and probably my reaction to Tony every day.

Speaker 1 (01:38:16):
Actually, I would like to to rebuttal and say, Michael
Maddis q q uh q gift, this is how I
look at R. Sally every day. Huh.

Speaker 3 (01:38:39):
Well, at least we're both fashionable.

Speaker 2 (01:38:42):
M hm.

Speaker 1 (01:38:44):
And how Justin looks at all of us most of
the time, except when he does then it's like, can
we get on with this? I wonder we should have
played that each time for for each one of us
to guess, uh, how each one of us would would

(01:39:05):
react to it. That's funny. I think I think we
all have done that look towards each other at some
point in time. Mm hmm, like if you if you replay.

Speaker 2 (01:39:19):
It, go back to your hands, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:39:22):

Speaker 2 (01:39:33):
That was I gotta go back, okay, And.

Speaker 1 (01:39:39):
Now it's time for news and gossip. I think it's
always a part of the show where we just reach
a level of delirium where we're like we've been talking
for like two hours and yeah, all right, let's get

(01:39:59):
into some news and goss.

Speaker 4 (01:40:01):

This is kind of bittersweet. It is officially one year
since we lost our beloved Drake Hoguston. He passed away
the day before his seventieth birthday. I don't know, many
of us were shocked at the time, even though he

had been sick for quite some time and a lot
of people have a lot of fans, a lot of
his co stars, his friends has been celebrating their friendship
with him, his contribution to life, to the show. He
had a beautiful one from his very good friend Steven Nichols,
who are patched to his John. So it was it's

a bittersweet. It's a bittersweet time right now we're celebrating,
we're still mourning and we miss you Drake every day.
And next up, Lindsay Arnold celebrated her birthday this past

of people confuse. So let's clarify this. Lindsay did not
