Speaker 1: I Am all in again. Oh that's you.
Speaker 2: I Am All in Town meeting with Suzanne French and
Speaker 2: Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome to another
Speaker 2: episode of I'm All in Town Meeting with myself, Tara
Speaker 2: and Suzanne. Hello. Hello, Today we're talking about season one
Speaker 2: episode twenty ps.
Speaker 1: I love It aired on May third, two thousand and one.
Speaker 3: So would you think.
Speaker 1: I like the episode? The only thing is.
Speaker 2: I realize more than ever how immature laurl I is.
Speaker 1: Like she kind of bugged me.
Speaker 2: In places where not bug may be like a little strong,
Speaker 2: but like irritated in this sense of like you're talking
Speaker 2: about your dog. Well also Max, Max should have never
Speaker 2: said anything to Rory about like, oh, like your relationship.
Speaker 1: But also.
Speaker 2: I don't know, like I feel like I don't even
Speaker 2: know my words are making sense or I don't know
Speaker 2: how to like place this, but I don't know, like
Speaker 2: I think the Lorelei and Max situation made me realize
Speaker 2: she's just a little immature.
Speaker 3: I thought she was a little frantic in this episode,
Speaker 3: like she she was just really bouncing off the walls
Speaker 3: in a lot of scenes. And I'm not sure if
Speaker 3: if that was a choice or that was you know,
Speaker 3: direction or what was going on there. But like the
Speaker 3: scene where she comes jumping into Rory's bed and she's
Speaker 3: like pushing on her, and the thing with Luke and
Speaker 3: the clothes and she's like running all over the place.
Speaker 2: Maybe it was part of that because then also the
Speaker 2: other immature part is why would you go up to
Speaker 2: a sixteen year old boy at his place of work
Speaker 2: and basically just like attack him.
Speaker 3: You know, poor Dean, he just gets attacked by adults
Speaker 3: all the time.
Speaker 2: I actually really felt bad because you and you can
Speaker 2: tell Lurla I felt bad after she found out, like
Speaker 2: he's like, all I said is I love you?
Speaker 1: And she broke up with.
Speaker 2: Me, right, And I kind of like that he called
Speaker 2: out the whole town.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I liked it too, because Rory wouldn't. Rory
Speaker 3: never told Lorlai what had happened, and so Laurla is
Speaker 3: making up a story in her head about what happened,
Speaker 3: and of course she assumed that it's Dean's fault. And
Speaker 3: I did what I did like about that scene. I
Speaker 3: love the way that they shot it where she's outside
Speaker 3: and then she like she walks away and she comes back,
Speaker 3: and yeah, way and she comes back, and it reminded
Speaker 3: me of that scene that we're going to see. Uh,
Speaker 3: I think it's next season where we have Fran's funeral
Speaker 3: and Jess and Rory do the same thing, like he
Speaker 3: starts to go after her and then he comes back,
Speaker 3: and then he starts and then he comes back. But
Speaker 3: so I did I liked that part, just you know,
Speaker 3: from the from the staging angle. But yeah, I thought,
Speaker 3: I don't know, I did feel. I did feel bad
Speaker 3: for Dean that he was kind of getting the blame
Speaker 3: from everybody, Like because Rory, they have her on such
Speaker 3: a pedestal that she could do no wrong and so therefore,
Speaker 3: even though no one knows what happened, it must have
Speaker 3: been Deane's fault, right, So I was glad that they
Speaker 3: kind of worked that out and Dean, you know, got
Speaker 3: to have some vindication there. But yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 3: I have a lot of There's just there was a
Speaker 3: lot going on in this episode.
Speaker 2: There was a lot between Rory running See last week
Speaker 2: we were talking about how I was like, didn't she
Speaker 2: run a Like, didn't she run away? Not knowing that
Speaker 2: it was the next episode that we were going to
Speaker 2: watch because she finally, you know it kind of if
Speaker 2: you think think about it, and I'm sure this was
Speaker 2: strategically planned. She knew she could run away to her grandparents'
Speaker 2: house because they just made the bedroom. Yes, the last
Speaker 2: time it was she was snowed in. She kind of
Speaker 2: had no choice. It wasn't safe on the roads. But
Speaker 2: this time it was like, I need somewhere to go.
Speaker 2: I know, my grandparents have a bedroom for me, and
Speaker 2: I feel safe. And did she handle it properly? Probably not,
Speaker 2: but like very lorelie of her, you know, but at
Speaker 2: least she was going somewhere safe, you know, like she's
Speaker 2: still a smart girl. And I have to say Richard's
Speaker 2: one liners in this episode were amazing, Like when he
Speaker 2: was so pissed about going to whatever event they had
Speaker 2: that night, Yeah, he said Like my favorite line that
Speaker 2: he sent was he.
Speaker 1: Said was.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry you're upset, but you have impeccable timing or
Speaker 2: something like that or thank you for your timing something.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Was that was awesome. I I agree, I loved
Speaker 3: Richard in this episode. Emily was thrilled, Uh, you know,
Speaker 3: memory ran away to her. She couldn't have been happier.
Speaker 3: And the I thought the breakfast scene was was kind
Speaker 3: of funny. You know she's gonna whip up a pop
Speaker 3: tart for.
Speaker 2: Her Yeah, I kind of wanted to see it, I know, right,
Speaker 2: even when they like reference at the end, I was like,
Speaker 2: I kind of wish that they like attempted the pop tart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we made pop tart.
Speaker 2: Did you notice when Emily asked Richard to pay for
Speaker 2: the cab, he walks outside and she just closes the
Speaker 2: door on him.
Speaker 1: Did you notice that?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like she.
Speaker 2: Just like slams the door on him, and like as
Speaker 2: it like all he's doing is paying the cab. He's
Speaker 2: coming back in. But like, I just thought it was funny.
Speaker 2: I'm sure it was obviously to like keep the flow
Speaker 2: of the scene.
Speaker 1: But I was just like, you just closed the door
Speaker 1: on your husband.
Speaker 3: That's funny. I didn't even notice that. I did notice,
Speaker 3: uh in the scene. So going back to Max and
Speaker 3: Lorelei for a minute, So Max, you know, the more
Speaker 3: I watched these episodes, the more Max annoys me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, he was because, like.
Speaker 3: You said in the at the top, it wasn't his
Speaker 3: place to say anything to Rory like that was weird
Speaker 3: that he pulled her aside after class to talk about
Speaker 3: the Dean thing not not really his business, you know,
Speaker 3: I get that he thought Lorla I, he thought that
Speaker 3: she knew that they were speaking, So I can kind
Speaker 3: of see that. But and then when he was talking
Speaker 3: to Lorelai at there at her house, and he was like,
Speaker 3: why haven't you told anyone? Are you trying to hide?
Speaker 3: Like we need to talk about this. Are you trying
Speaker 3: to hide it? It's like, dude, back off, it's been
Speaker 3: like two weeks. And who would she tell? Like Suki,
Speaker 3: I guess, but I didn't know why he was such
Speaker 3: a big deal to him.
Speaker 1: Like what are you supposed to do, like make an
Speaker 1: announcement in the newspaper?
Speaker 3: Right? Like how would that even like come up normally?
Speaker 3: So he was kind of a little intense about that.
Speaker 3: But what I started to say and then I sidetracked
Speaker 3: myself was in the scene where he calls her. So
Speaker 3: he's at Chiltern and he calls her at the inn
Speaker 3: to say that he wanted to have a date with
Speaker 3: her on the weekend. If you watch the camera, he's
Speaker 3: at school. The camera pans to the right and you
Speaker 3: can see there's a room behind him where there's other
Speaker 3: professor sitting and one of the people sitting at that
Speaker 3: table was Robert Lee, who plays the waiter at Luke's
Speaker 3: and just general town person. But I thought that was
Speaker 3: it was funny to see him at Chilton.
Speaker 2: They just needed it, like they were like, we need
Speaker 2: more extras than overtime.
Speaker 3: This week he popped up in a couple other scenes.
Speaker 3: He got off the bus behind Rory.
Speaker 1: Is he in other episodes? A lot?
Speaker 3: He is. He's in the diner all the time, I think.
Speaker 1: But that's like his main place is the diner exactly.
Speaker 3: Like you see, he's like bussing tables and delivering.
Speaker 1: Food and so being a teacher at Chilton makes no sense, right.
Speaker 3: Being a teacher at Chilton makes no sense. He does
Speaker 3: pop up at a town meeting now and then.
Speaker 1: But that makes sense because if he works in the looks,
Speaker 1: then he's part of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but it was it was funny to see him.
Speaker 3: And then he was in Doci's Market in a button
Speaker 3: down shirt when Laura I was in.
Speaker 2: There being a Doze's Market. Well, I know, Susane, you
Speaker 2: were there. But also for the listeners who were at
Speaker 2: the Warner Brothers lot this last year, and they fully
Speaker 2: made Docie's Market. It was kind of wild watching the
Speaker 2: scene with Laurli and Dean because I'm like, man, they
Speaker 2: really recreated that the diner, yeah, to be exactly like
Speaker 2: how it was in the show. It was kind of like,
Speaker 2: I don't know, I was kind I had like goosebumps
Speaker 2: watching it because I'm like, holy crap, I was there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. I said the same thing to my
Speaker 3: husband lost it because he watched it with me. In
Speaker 3: the scene where it was Lorelei and Dean in the market,
Speaker 3: and I like, exactly where they were standing. We were
Speaker 3: standing there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were looking for snacks exactly, and like we
Speaker 2: were standing right there, my husband, I feel like I
Speaker 2: didn't take I didn't appreciate it as much when we
Speaker 2: were standing there because there was so much happening too
Speaker 2: and the crowd and there was a line of people.
Speaker 2: But watching the scene back, I'm like, I should have
Speaker 2: taken a photo in that exacts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I know, Yeah, Yeah, it was it
Speaker 3: was cool, and we did. We actually went back two
Speaker 3: more times so we got to be there when it
Speaker 3: was less crowded, and so.
Speaker 1: I didn't get to do that this year.
Speaker 2: I got really sick right after I had had like
Speaker 2: the flu. But next year or I guess at the
Speaker 2: end of this year, hopefully, if they do it again,
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not teasing anything. I'm just saying,
Speaker 2: to do it again, I will be there. I had
Speaker 2: a couple of friends who went like three four times.
Speaker 2: Like one of my friends she works remote and she's like,
Speaker 2: I literally took my laptop and I sat at Luke's.
Speaker 1: And I was like, that's pretty iconic.
Speaker 3: Is that's pretty cool?
Speaker 2: I want to talk about when Dean and Lane were
Speaker 2: at Lane's house, did you see that giant like horse
Speaker 2: snatue just like between them?
Speaker 1: No, It's literally like.
Speaker 2: In the middle of the kitchen, and I was like,
Speaker 2: we really couldn't find anywhere else.
Speaker 3: Wait, I do remember that. It's like a wasn't it
Speaker 3: like a carousel horse?
Speaker 2: It was like a carousel horse? Yeah, and it was, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was just sitting there. But I had to point
Speaker 2: that out. But going back to Lane and Dean, that
Speaker 2: I want to talk about is I thought, with Lane
Speaker 2: being so supportive of Rory and saying like Dean's on
Speaker 2: the market on Wednesdays and it's that, why couldn't she
Speaker 2: just say hey, we got matched up to be partners
Speaker 2: on this project. Like I don't understand why she couldn't
Speaker 2: say it, And like my heart literally broke when Rory
Speaker 2: was standing at the end of the table. It just
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, and Rory's so nice and she's
Speaker 2: not gonna like like she walked out. She's like it's fine,
Speaker 2: Like t worry about it. I'll get over it. But
Speaker 2: it just bothered me that Lane didn't. If Lane was
Speaker 2: being so supportive of her feelings, then why didn't she
Speaker 2: say anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. I didn't think about it from that angle,
Speaker 3: but but you're right. I mean, I guess I can
Speaker 3: kind of see it from both sides. Like I guess
Speaker 3: she felt like she didn't maybe want to open that
Speaker 3: wound by asking about it, like maybe it was just
Speaker 3: better to try and smooth it over.
Speaker 2: But like even with the sweet jet, I mean, I
Speaker 2: thought it was a sweet gesture where she's like, you
Speaker 2: can write that down the notepad, I see you, Like
Speaker 2: it was like little things like a best friend type
Speaker 2: of like I know you, and so it just it.
Speaker 1: Didn't feel like a best friend.
Speaker 2: And also just to stick with Lane, did you notice
Speaker 2: at the end when they when she went over to
Speaker 2: Lane's house to like apologize about what she did, she
Speaker 2: knocks on like the opposite side of the door.
Speaker 1: Did you notice that?
Speaker 3: I did notice that on the hinge side.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, on the hinge side, And it definitely was
Speaker 2: a staging thing because Lane comes out on the other side.
Speaker 1: But I was like, you might as well have knocked
Speaker 1: on the window, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did notice that. I was like, why is
Speaker 3: she knocking on that side? But you're right, because when
Speaker 3: you you can't have alexis blocking the view when when
Speaker 3: Lane opens the door, So it makes sense. But you right,
Speaker 3: it was knocking on that because that's not only she.
Speaker 2: Like literally knocked on the hinge of the door, And
Speaker 2: I was like looking at my own friend door and
Speaker 2: I'm like, could you imagine if I stood on the
Speaker 2: complete opposite side.
Speaker 1: Like you know, yeah, it's a little just a little
Speaker 1: call out there.
Speaker 3: So one scene I loved, or actually I think it
Speaker 3: was two separate scene, but the storyline that I loved
Speaker 3: was the whole thing with Lorelei buying Luke the clothes. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I thought that was hilarious.
Speaker 2: Well, when he's for the belt part, like who do
Speaker 2: you usually help?
Speaker 1: Like have you helped your husband with a belt.
Speaker 3: I have not, but I think I don't know, maybe
Speaker 3: because they needed some way to make it look weird
Speaker 3: when Rachel walked in. They needed it to be something,
Speaker 3: because otherwise, why would she make a comment about it,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like they needed it to
Speaker 3: be awkward somehow. But yeah, I thought that was funny
Speaker 3: when he was like, I'm not gonna smell this bag
Speaker 3: because she wanted him to smell the leather bag, and
Speaker 3: he's like, I'm not going to smell this, and then
Speaker 3: you see in the next shot he like picks up
Speaker 3: the strap and he smells it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I also, I don't know, I like the clothing part,
Speaker 2: but the belt just but I like, I'm like going
Speaker 2: back to the belt.
Speaker 3: And also I just thought it was funny. It's it's
Speaker 3: become like in our house whenever we talk about the
Speaker 3: price of something, we're like, it's six hundred thousand percent off.
Speaker 3: It's like, just become part of our family.
Speaker 1: Febulary Susanne.
Speaker 2: Just one quick note I had to point out. Did
Speaker 2: you notice the Rory's Paul Frank pajamas?
Speaker 1: Yes, those were I literally had those pajamas.
Speaker 3: By the way, those were adorable.
Speaker 2: I wonder, like, is Paul Frank still around, Like do
Speaker 2: they still sell the clothes or anything.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm gonna have to let me google it.
Speaker 1: Really there was that, and then also.
Speaker 3: It looks so comfy too, I know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then also in Rory's room at Emily and
Speaker 2: Richard's I loved the touch of the little Hello Kitty.
Speaker 1: On the nightstand.
Speaker 3: Oh I didn't even see that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a little Hello Kitty. I was like,
Speaker 2: good job, Emily, Like, look at you paying attention. They're
Speaker 2: also prop departments.
Speaker 3: They have they still have a ton of stuff on
Speaker 3: their website.
Speaker 1: Oh Paul Frank's still around.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, maybe maybe I'll go order new pajama.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I might do a little shopping
Speaker 3: while I've got the website pulled up here. It was
Speaker 3: a funny scene, but we do see it like plant
Speaker 3: that seed of doubt in Rachel's mind. Yeah, that kind
Speaker 3: of like makes you think, Okay, something else is gonna
Speaker 3: happen here.
Speaker 2: I mean okay, but like also if she didn't get
Speaker 2: that from the photo she took in the last episode
Speaker 2: and gifted like it's one of those things where she's
Speaker 2: also involved.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's true. That's true. I forgot about that picture,
Speaker 3: but you're right.
Speaker 2: Like handing the man you're dating a photo with another
Speaker 2: woman who might have interest, just leans a little too
Speaker 2: on the notes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: Did Kirk look younger to you in this episode? For
Speaker 1: some reason? She did? I noticed that too, in that
Speaker 1: opening scene, right, his.
Speaker 3: Hair seemed darker to me. I don't know if it was.
Speaker 1: Oh was that why? Maybe it made that's what it was.
Speaker 3: But I it did. I did notice that.
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, you look a lot younger.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I did notice that. I have asthma.
Speaker 2: Oh man, I don't know if I had anything else
Speaker 2: really for this episode.
Speaker 3: I didn't see the clown pillow. I felt like we
Speaker 3: almost saw it at the end where she was sitting
Speaker 3: on the couch and talking to Max on the phone,
Speaker 3: because the camera was kind of panning and usually it's
Speaker 3: like under that front window. But then when it cut
Speaker 3: back to her shot again, it was already past it. So, yeah,
Speaker 3: you didn't see the clown kills. You've seen it for
Speaker 3: a couple episodes now, No, it's been.
Speaker 1: At least what two or three?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I did, just like talking about the last
Speaker 2: scene real quick. I kind of thought it was a
Speaker 2: dumb scene, Like I did not need that last scene
Speaker 2: at all, like her opening like a contact book from
Speaker 2: like high school, and.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, going through names.
Speaker 2: I was like, this is just I mean, I understand
Speaker 2: it's the Loreli like quirk, but I was like, I
Speaker 2: would have been happy if they just ended the episode.
Speaker 2: Wasn't right before when like Richard and Emily have that
Speaker 2: sweet moment like the door closes, they walk away, Like
Speaker 2: we could have ended the episode right there. I thought
Speaker 2: there was gonna be a cliffhanger, but there wasn't.
Speaker 3: No, Yeah, I agree that was kind of superfluous. I
Speaker 3: don't think. I mean, I was just annoyed by that
Speaker 3: whole thing anyways, So yeah, I agree that that that
Speaker 3: ending was just kind of dumb, like she's not gonna
Speaker 3: pull open her out.
Speaker 2: And then actually calling the guy she's not calling him,
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Max was annoying to me in
Speaker 3: this episode. It was nice that he showed up in
Speaker 3: person to help her look for Rory, so I did.
Speaker 3: I thought that was cool.
Speaker 2: And then I like how Suki went to Dean's house
Speaker 2: and then like it took her a while to be like,
Speaker 2: oh wait, we gotta tell Suki that we found her.
Speaker 3: I know. And then she's like, I'm gonna page suk h.
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, who is a pager anymore?
Speaker 1: Two thousand and one, Yeah, it just it was funny
Speaker 1: pagers in two thousand and one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we still used pagers in the hospital
Speaker 3: to page the doctors.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I was just thinking two thousand and one,
Speaker 2: I'm like, we did have cell phones, like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had there were breaks, but phones, but I
Speaker 3: think it was it was that transitional period, you know,
Speaker 3: it was smartphones.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
Speaker 2: I got my first phone as an emergency in two
Speaker 2: thousand and four. It was like my parents are like,
Speaker 2: just keep in your backpack. Like I didn't use it,
Speaker 2: and it was one of those no kia yes, and
Speaker 2: I literally only used it to play snake. Yes. I
Speaker 2: think I like called my parents on it twice, like
Speaker 2: I like got sick at school and then like needed
Speaker 2: to get picked up or but even then, like the
Speaker 2: school nurse called well.
Speaker 3: And you could text, but it didn't have the letter
Speaker 3: keys numbers like three times to get the T and
Speaker 3: yeah that was.
Speaker 2: Not oh man, yeah, no wonder no wonder we used
Speaker 2: to text like you was just the letter you because
Speaker 2: it took too much effort exactly.
Speaker 3: I had forgotten about that. Yeah, and then because we
Speaker 3: did that until blackberries came out, that was the first one,
Speaker 3: like with the with the keyboard because it was.
Speaker 2: This and and uh, sidekicks because I had a sidekick.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I never had a sidekick.
Speaker 2: I went sidekick was a mini keyboard and it was
Speaker 2: literally well yeah, it was like the two thumbs obviously,
Speaker 2: but a BlackBerry was a little more condensed.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I went from my note a phone to a
Speaker 3: pink motorole eraser, which my toddler broke. He's now the
Speaker 3: one that's graduating from high school. And then I went
Speaker 3: from that to a BlackBerry, so.
Speaker 2: I had I had a Nokia, and then I had
Speaker 2: a sidekick, and then sidekick you could only it was
Speaker 2: only T Mobile users and T Mobile barely worked like
Speaker 2: at our house, so it really was just me having
Speaker 2: like a prop of a phone. I don't know why
Speaker 2: my parents. It was like a birthday gift that I wanted.
Speaker 2: And then I got like realistic and got a razor,
Speaker 2: and then I went from the razor to the iPhone
Speaker 2: like the first iPhone. Yeah, I never had a BlackBerry,
Speaker 2: but my mom loved her BlackBerry.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I liked the BlackBerry cause I liked the physical keys.
Speaker 3: They were easier than the iPhone.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so I think that's all we have, right, Susann, Yep,
Speaker 2: that's all I have. People loved our book review, Susanna. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like a book review. It was a book, fully Bishop's book. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we're doing another one.
Speaker 3: We're doing Lauren's first book, which was a novel called
Speaker 3: Sunday Someday maybe yep.
Speaker 1: And we're gonna talk about this book.
Speaker 2: The end of actually I think the right and we're
Speaker 2: gonna give you guys a month to read it with
