Speaker 1: So I'll try to keep it to an hour and
Speaker 1: let me put my phone on set.
Speaker 2: We'll try to keep it to an hour. You're trying
Speaker 2: to keep it you Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, you're usually fine until I drag
Speaker 3: you off the topic.
Speaker 1: I've been meeting you in your tangential tangency.
Speaker 3: I would like to say, I it's I've had an
Speaker 3: influence on you. Yeah, you make less sense as we
Speaker 3: go along, and you and you're now, Yeah, you've got
Speaker 3: your own little random factoid things that you know.
Speaker 1: Random facts. I've even started cursing occasionally, like you have
Speaker 1: up to the sweetened level here. It's really yeah, we're
Speaker 1: working down.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's yeah, it's kind of yeah. I'm not
Speaker 3: sure if it's an up or down depends on where
Speaker 3: you are.
Speaker 2: But yeah, no, it's uh. And we were just talking
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 3: We have a couple of cons coming up that we're
Speaker 3: we're going to be at together, so that was great.
Speaker 1: I didn't know you were going, so I didn't either.
Speaker 3: We were like, oh, hey, we have to reschedule, and
Speaker 3: you're like, oh, yeah, I think I'm going to that too.
Speaker 3: I was like, ah, yes, usually that's you flying out
Speaker 3: and Rachel, my manager, was like, hey, we have to reschedule,
Speaker 3: and I was like, we do.
Speaker 2: So, as you can see, we're both super on top
Speaker 2: of things.
Speaker 3: Were really I was like, I know, I said I'm
Speaker 3: going to a convention and signed a thing, but I
Speaker 3: was like, I don't know when I know where.
Speaker 1: Well, this is months from now.
Speaker 3: Like to me, that's basically I mean, at this rate,
Speaker 3: at the rate we're going, that is EON's from now.
Speaker 2: That is that is a hope and a wish, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean.
Speaker 3: August please come on, Yeah in June.
Speaker 1: Let's just make it to the end of this.
Speaker 3: We'll just make it to the end of June. Yeah,
Speaker 3: very talking about Eglitz. But by the way, are they
Speaker 3: all do they are gone?
Speaker 2: They still? Are they fledged? Well?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah they fledged?
Speaker 3: They fledged, but I mean I have ago, but they
Speaker 3: they're fully fledged.
Speaker 1: But the babies come back for that's right for dinner,
Speaker 1: the fish for dinner. Although the last couple of nights
Speaker 1: only one eagle eaglet has come back, and so I'm
Speaker 1: kind of worried about Gizmo. Gizmo hasn't been seen in
Speaker 1: a couple of days.
Speaker 3: Maybe Gizmo's out there just hopefully in his own life food.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I am I am an.
Speaker 3: Eagle now I know what I'm doing. And he's kind
Speaker 3: of gotten it under control.
Speaker 2: I hope.
Speaker 1: So, I mean, the parents are kind of keeping an
Speaker 1: eagle eye out for the babies and teaching them how
Speaker 1: to hunt. But this is a very critical time because
Speaker 1: I don't know that. I don't know the exact stats,
Speaker 1: but there's something like there's only a sixty percent survival
Speaker 1: rate for fledglings in this period because.
Speaker 3: Right because they brand new, brand new, and they don't well,
Speaker 3: or they don't know yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, or if they don't know how to hunt yet,
Speaker 1: they'll just steal food from other, right animals, or and.
Speaker 2: So it's like, well, yeah, that's it doesn't end well.
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't end well. So yeah, I'm a little nervous,
Speaker 1: but that's okay.
Speaker 2: I will keep me updated on gizmo.
Speaker 1: Okay, I know, God, we love Gizmo.
Speaker 2: Is so sweet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm very excited for the end of the week.

Speaker 1: I don't know he I think he's in your classroom,
Speaker 1: because I like, is there a boy that says something

Speaker 1: asleep yet. She shouts, Michelle, go to sleep, you have
Speaker 1: a big day tomorrow. Then she opens her eyes and
Speaker 1: admits this is not working.
Speaker 2: Been there.
Speaker 1: Joey walks in and teases, I know someone who can't
Speaker 1: sleep because she's thinking about her first day of kindergarten.
Speaker 2: And Dave's hair is.
Speaker 1: So long, like, this is mullet.
Speaker 2: He he has crossed the line into mullet territory, Dave.
Speaker 2: We left the mullet behind in season two. That back Dave,
Speaker 2: But this was this is is a mullet.
Speaker 3: But yeah, but it's like a little longer on the
Speaker 3: top like John's was, like the short and the long.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: True, this mullet is more proportional to the rest of
Speaker 1: his head. But it was still mullet territory.
Speaker 2: It's still mullet territory. It's a choice. It's a choice.
Speaker 3: Look, we're only in ninety one. We haven't gotten that
Speaker 3: far away from the mullets.
Speaker 1: That's true, it hasn't been.
Speaker 3: There's still some mullet bleed over, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Little Yeah, maybe he.
Speaker 1: Was inspired by the last episode of season four where
Speaker 1: there were all the mullets and the rippers Jesse.
Speaker 2: And the movie.
Speaker 3: We're not like, yeah, that was just months ago. It
Speaker 3: was just months ago, early ninety one. Mullets everywhere. So
Speaker 3: I think we're just we're it's the last sort of
Speaker 3: that's the the death knell of the mullet.
Speaker 1: You know, yes, yes, this is great. So Michelle responds,
Speaker 1: so do I, and Joey flicks on the lights and
Speaker 1: offers to sing her a nice soothing lullaby. He pulls
Speaker 1: out his harmonica and plays the bluesiest tune we've heard before,
Speaker 1: the bluesy tune that we've heard before.
Speaker 2: This is like a repeat teaser. Didn't we just do
Speaker 2: this the bluesy tunes? We just said, it took us
Speaker 2: forever we get here.
Speaker 3: Do you think when people were watching this week to
Speaker 3: week they remembered that?
Speaker 1: No, no, just because we watched it like two weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Feels fresh.
Speaker 3: There's seven sitcom storylines and you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: like and there's just variations on.
Speaker 2: All of them.
Speaker 1: So they just just changed the actors, change the clothes
Speaker 1: and ages.
Speaker 2: Has changed the thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's the same foot also super soothing and
Speaker 3: really a great way.
Speaker 2: To uh call the child down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so much for a lullabye, like this is just
Speaker 1: energizing her. Uh. So he sings, Michelle's getting sleepy, and
Speaker 1: she chimes in, oh no she's not. She's excited about kindergarten,
Speaker 1: and Joey adds, because she gets milk in a little curtain.
Speaker 1: I remember those little Do they still serve those those
Speaker 1: little milk curtains?
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know. It's I haven't been to
Speaker 3: elementary school. While I think they do, ye like elementary school,
Speaker 3: because they still get the.
Speaker 1: Little the little tray, yeah, with the sad meal and
Speaker 1: the limp vegetable and then the carton of milk. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: Michelle takes it away. When I need to sleep, I
Speaker 1: get milk and cookies. She jumps out of bed and
Speaker 1: darts towards the door while Joey finishes his soothing lullaby.
Speaker 1: She can't she's got the can't sleep. School's starting too
Speaker 1: excited about kindergarten. Needs some milk and cookie blues, and
Speaker 1: it's it's early. Michelle runs back in for her grand finale.
Speaker 1: She sings, oh yeah, joe admits that chick knocks me out.
Speaker 1: He flips his harmonica back into his shirt pocket and
Speaker 1: says yeah to end the teaser, and we're done.
Speaker 3: And then there we go, And now we've set up
Speaker 3: what's happening, Well, at least, well the first's.
Speaker 2: At least tied to the show.
Speaker 3: This is true, rather than just a random Michelle moment
Speaker 3: where she's feeling uncomfortable and looking to Sugar to solve
Speaker 3: her problems.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is relevant. She's nervous about the first day
Speaker 1: off Kigdergarten.
Speaker 2: True, very true.
Speaker 1: Uh, we see opening credits that are the same as
Speaker 1: season four. Aren't you new credits yet? I'm really mad
Speaker 1: because season five is when I finally get my own
Speaker 1: opening credit, and it's not here.
Speaker 3: Well, it's I don't think it was here yet because
Speaker 3: I think we shot him after we came back. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so after we came back, so usually like the second
Speaker 3: or third week, they come out.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, we'll see him in episode five, so
Speaker 1: we have to wait a few moments before we see it.
Speaker 1: But I was just like, oh, I was so excited. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I normally don't watch the opening credits, but I did
Speaker 1: this time, waiting to see myself.
Speaker 3: I know, you know what I did too, because I
Speaker 3: was like, oh, wait, season five, I think we do
Speaker 3: something different.
Speaker 1: It's we're right, just not yet. It's just not yet. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's to come. They had to shoot him first and
Speaker 1: edit them and then put them in.
Speaker 2: Well, we did them in San Francisco. Did we are
Speaker 2: these the ones?
Speaker 1: No? No, well I did mine in the kitchen set.
Speaker 1: I don't think, maybe not.
Speaker 2: I don't know. We'll find out. For a person in
Speaker 2: San Francisco. I don't remember it.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't My memory is not that great.
Speaker 1: Some of the fanarido's please chime in and let us
Speaker 1: know where we shot these intros and when they appear.
Speaker 1: Moving on, we are in the kitchen. Jesse walks into
Speaker 1: the house, shouting, Hey, everybody, I'm home. It's the middle
Speaker 1: of the night. It's very Jesse is so Jesse. He
Speaker 1: sees Commet and excitedly greets him. But Commet couldn't care
Speaker 1: less that Jesse is there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's sleeping.
Speaker 1: Even the door dog retrievers, retrievers who who live to
Speaker 1: greet you? This one is like, forget it, dude, It's
Speaker 1: it's too early in the morning.
Speaker 2: Quiet. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Jesse runs upstairs and shouts, Hey, wake up, everyone,
Speaker 1: wake up, I'm home. Wait all the bedroom doors come on, dude.
Speaker 2: I'm just like nobody.
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to greet you at three in the morning. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, which is why the next little bit is very
Speaker 2: funny true.
Speaker 1: All the bedroom doors slowly open to reveal his groggy
Speaker 1: family members. Jesse is a ball of energy as he
Speaker 1: hugs each one of them. Danny walks out and reminds
Speaker 1: Jesse that it's three a m. And tomorrow's the first
Speaker 1: day of school and Jesse's on lunch making duty tomorrow.
Speaker 1: After Danny walks away and the rest of the family
Speaker 1: have gone back into their respective rooms, Jesse can't believe
Speaker 1: that that's all he gets after being gone all summer.
Speaker 3: Dude, read the room Michelle as exactly a specialty.
Speaker 1: No, he's missing that gene. Michelle appears at her doorway
Speaker 1: to tell him next time, come home earlier.
Speaker 3: Ye, yes, the child speaks the truth again. The sage
Speaker 3: wisdom of Michelle is but.
Speaker 1: He ignores her request and shouts becky at the top
Speaker 1: of his lungs before heading up to the attic.
Speaker 3: Because every pregnant woman loves to be interrupted in their sleep,
Speaker 3: because it's hard enough not by.
Speaker 1: The time you get in a comfortable position and drift
Speaker 1: off and you will.
Speaker 2: Get a pee.
Speaker 1: Then you got a pee, and then your your husband
Speaker 1: heads home and starts screaming your name in the hallway.
Speaker 1: So Becky is fast asleep, of course, but Jesse continues
Speaker 1: to yell. Anyway. He turns on the lights when he
Speaker 1: gets inside, and we see Becky is sporting a huge
Speaker 1: baby bump.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's a lot quickly gone like he's
Speaker 1: been going.
Speaker 2: He's been gone the whole summer.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's been like three months. She looks nine
Speaker 3: months pregnant. That's the whole point of the episode. She
Speaker 3: finds out there's two of them in there.
Speaker 1: I think, not that you're not that big at eight
Speaker 1: weeks or ten weeks, you don't really start showing, even
Speaker 1: with twins. I don't think you start showing untill twenty weeks,
Speaker 1: eighteen weeks. I've never had twins. I've never had twins either,
Speaker 1: but I definitely didn't start showing until after twenty weeks. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: with one, even with a singleton. But anyways, you're right,
Speaker 1: the joke's gotta work. Becky's huge, she's swearing.
Speaker 2: That big moon bump.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: And to be fair, to be fair, Laurie is tiny
Speaker 2: and very petite. That's true. That's true.
Speaker 3: To fit two of them in there, it would look
Speaker 3: she would it would look.
Speaker 2: Large, that's true.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she's a tiny little woman and so yeah,
Speaker 1: two babies are already taking up a ton of room.
Speaker 1: Uh and according to wait.
Speaker 3: Yeah, according to twins can start to show as early as.
Speaker 2: Six to eight weeks.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, there we go. All right, there we go.
Speaker 1: These these twins are just stating really fast. Jesse and
Speaker 1: Rebecca give each other a big hug and kiss, and
Speaker 1: Jesse notices her belly. He lets out, I have mercy,
Speaker 1: and she agrees with him, comparing herself to Frosty the Snowman.
Speaker 1: Jesse says that when he saw her two weeks ago,
Speaker 1: she looked pregnant, but now she looks enormous.
Speaker 2: Two weeks so he saw her.
Speaker 1: Did he come home two weeks ago?
Speaker 2: Did she fly out? And she maybe? I think? Well,
Speaker 2: remember she was like, I can go with you on
Speaker 2: some and she was gonna take time off.
Speaker 3: So then she flew home two weeks ago, okay, and
Speaker 3: he had to wrap things up the last two weeks
Speaker 3: and then apparently in the last two weeks she has exploded.
Speaker 1: Okay there, that's kind of how it happens too. You know,
Speaker 1: one day you're day You're like, whoa, where did this
Speaker 1: come from?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: So Becky's eyes widened at the word enormous and Jackie Jackie.
Speaker 3: Jesse, here we go, Jackie Jacky Jackie lives. Long live Jackie.
Speaker 3: I will never give that up.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Even Manny was like Jackie like, yes, it's it's a
Speaker 1: thing now. So Jackie or Jesse backtracks enormously pregnant, and
Speaker 1: Becky admits she's amazed by it. One morning she just
Speaker 1: woke up, looked down and her feet were gone. Jesse
Speaker 1: touches her belly and says, hi to the baby. He's
Speaker 1: shocked that. He feels the baby kicking, and he asks
Speaker 1: Becky why it's up so late.
Speaker 3: She laughs, you came in the room, am bro. Even
Speaker 3: the embryo is like, god, you scared me.
Speaker 2: You know, yeah something?
Speaker 1: Yes, why he's startled and he's trying to go back
Speaker 1: to sleep.
Speaker 3: He's rolling over trying to get away from a loud noise.
Speaker 1: She laughs, and she grabs a book, telling Jesse he
Speaker 1: needs to read this because it tells you everything you
Speaker 1: need to know about having a baby. He nods and
Speaker 1: begins to read the book right away. He opens up
Speaker 1: to chapter one and smirks, uh, I think we already
Speaker 1: covered that chapter Becky laughs and they start to make
Speaker 1: out and we're out.
Speaker 2: So what does that mean? I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: You're like, Michelle, where do you?
Speaker 2: What is that? What's on that chapter? Right? How do
Speaker 2: babies sleep? Where do they sleep?
Speaker 3: And there? They come out at night and then they
Speaker 3: crawl back up in there.
Speaker 1: So the next morning, Danny's drinking his coffee in the
Speaker 1: kitchen reading the paper when DJ walks down. She is
Speaker 1: all dressed up in a denim buttoned top and black
Speaker 1: shorts for her first day of high school, and Danny
Speaker 1: has to treasure at this moment. He tells her to
Speaker 1: sit on his lap, and she cringes with embarrassment, and I.
Speaker 2: Too, am cringing with him. By Christmas, Yeah, I was like.
Speaker 1: He remembers the moment he first held DJ in his
Speaker 1: arms and saw his reflection on her little bald head.
Speaker 1: She's embarrassed yet again, and she tells him she's got
Speaker 1: to go, but she points to her outfit and asks
Speaker 1: him how does she look. He smiles and says cute,
Speaker 1: and she's devastated. Cute you're supposed to say, I look
Speaker 1: way too hot and can't leave the house dressed like this.
Speaker 1: Danny corrects himself. I'm sorry, honey, you look very sexy.
Speaker 3: Oh god, this was so yeah, there were so many
Speaker 3: other words that it could have been right.
Speaker 2: So many other words.
Speaker 1: This did not land.
Speaker 3: And I know it's supposed to be it's supposed to
Speaker 3: be uncomfortable, but also it was.
Speaker 1: Another level of uncomfortableness.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, particularly for the fact that she's like kind
Speaker 3: of wearing a smock, you know, like it's not like
Speaker 3: she's like it's a long sleeve, like high necked denim shirt. Nothing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was nothing revealing about it at all.
Speaker 2: It was just Yeah, the.
Speaker 3: Whole moment was not it was it was a it
Speaker 3: was a weird moment for me, and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was super weird. Like the first one didn't land,
Speaker 1: but then the writer's doubled down into the second awkward moment.
Speaker 1: It's like, no, none of these jokes are landing. Let's
Speaker 1: just please, please, let's move on from this moment.
Speaker 2: So thank god.
Speaker 1: Kimmy walks in and she's wearing a black oversized T
Speaker 1: shirt dress and a patterned scarf around her neck. She
Speaker 1: looks very demure. She greets dj oh ahdij and then
Speaker 1: she looks at Danny and calls him Big Dan. Danny
Speaker 1: says hi and tells Kimmy she looks nice. She smiles, thanks.
Speaker 1: My dad said the same thing. Danny turns back to
Speaker 1: DJ to lecture her. You see, you don't always have
Speaker 1: to dress hot to attract attention. Meanwhile, Kimmy is altering
Speaker 1: her entire wardrobe behind him. She takes her hair out
Speaker 1: of the bun, pulls down her bright red tights, and
Speaker 1: takes off the oversized T shirt reveal a tight fitted,
Speaker 1: bit dazzled mini dress.
Speaker 2: You looked so cute. It looked great. Let's stare, I say, sexy. No,
Speaker 2: you looked you did?
Speaker 3: You looked you looked cute. You probably hated every moment
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 1: Well, it was I didn't like revealing things, so I
Speaker 1: felt self conscious about how right? Right?
Speaker 2: But no, it was great. You looked it was fantastic.
Speaker 1: And I did love this bit because it like doing
Speaker 1: the timing and the dab and Bob could kind of
Speaker 1: tell what was happening based on the audience's reaction, right,
Speaker 1: so you could time it.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: It was a funny.
Speaker 2: You could be so great.
Speaker 1: So while all of this is going on, Danny's lecture
Speaker 1: to DJ continues and He concludes with right now, you
Speaker 1: can actually learn something from Kimmy, and then he turns
Speaker 1: around to see Kimmy's altered appearance and he has to
Speaker 1: do a double take. Jimmy tells Deeed that they should
Speaker 1: head out, but DJ admits she has to change, considering
Speaker 1: her dad wants her to be more like Kimmy. Danny
Speaker 1: grabs DJ's hands and then says, no, no, no, you
Speaker 1: just go to school. He turns back and glances at
Speaker 1: Kimmy and then begs DJ please make new friends. She
Speaker 1: kisses her dad goodbye, and she and Kimmy head out.
Speaker 1: Then Jesse makes his way into the kitchen. He's instructing
Speaker 1: Becky on how to maneuver down the stairs with her
Speaker 1: big belly. Becky reminds him she's an expecting mother, not
Speaker 1: a jumbo jet.
Speaker 3: I would have.
Speaker 2: Thrown some of his head by now.
Speaker 3: And blamed it on Hormone's been like, I'm not responsible
Speaker 3: for my actions.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, uh, Jesse responds, Please, the baby can pick
Speaker 1: up your sarcasm. Becky is confused, so he explains, I
Speaker 1: was up all night reading that baby book and it
Speaker 1: said that even in the womb, the baby can sense
Speaker 1: everything that's going on, So starting right now, I want
Speaker 1: happy voices and soothing sounds. Danny wonders if he's going
Speaker 1: a bit overboard, and Jesse reminds him, I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: a father. Do you know what a big job that is?
Speaker 1: And Danny sarcastically remarks, oh gosh, no, Jess tell me.
Speaker 1: Jesse ignores the sarcasm and says that means I'm going
Speaker 1: to be responsible for another human life, and I want
Speaker 1: it to start outright. He makes his way back to
Speaker 1: Becky and hands her a cassette player, telling her to
Speaker 1: carry it at all times.
Speaker 2: Oh, a cassette play.
Speaker 1: I know. This was just a relic, right.
Speaker 3: A cassette player Walkman, which was like the height of technology.
Speaker 1: Oh, that was cool. When those came out. Everybody had
Speaker 1: to have one.
Speaker 2: Everybody had to have them.
Speaker 3: And let me tell you, the headphones. If there is
Speaker 3: an opposite of noise canceling.
Speaker 2: It's those.
Speaker 3: It was, and it was like, it's sort of like
Speaker 3: your own little concert, but really it's you and the
Speaker 3: seven people standing within six feet of you who can
Speaker 3: hear everything that's going on on.
Speaker 2: These two little like sponges on.
Speaker 1: The ear, tiny little sponges. Yes, there was no filtering.
Speaker 3: Everyone could hear what it sounded like crap, I mean
Speaker 3: just the tape and sounded and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we it was the best. You could put
Speaker 2: one of those on it, rollerblade, Yeah.
Speaker 1: You could, you could. You had portable music for the
Speaker 1: first time.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was big. This was very big. So uh.
Speaker 1: He places this cassette player near Becky's belly and it
Speaker 1: begins to play what else but Elvis?
Speaker 2: Or close enough to Elvis that we can pay for true.
Speaker 1: Becky breaks the news that she will not be listening
Speaker 1: to Elvis twenty four hours a day, and Jesse had
Speaker 1: a feeling she'd say that, so he came prepared. He
Speaker 1: plugs a pair of headphones into the cassette player and
Speaker 1: places them around Becky's stomach To solve this problem, He
Speaker 1: proudly tells his wife, I bet its little lip is
Speaker 1: curling up right now. Then his eyes widened as he
Speaker 1: realizes the baby heard him call it it. Jesse tells
Speaker 1: her that they have to find out the gender, but
Speaker 1: Becky pushes back, no, you promised that we'd be surprised.
Speaker 1: Jesse reminds her, happy sounds, soothing voices, so Becky repeats
Speaker 1: herself in an over the top happy tone. Now, Jess,
Speaker 1: you agreed that we'd be surprised. Jesse's tone is just
Speaker 1: as happy as he says, but I want you to
Speaker 1: change your mind, and they argue back and forth in
Speaker 1: these cheerful tones. When Danny approaches Becky, he lifts the
Speaker 1: headphones from her belly to assure the baby, don't you worry?
Speaker 1: Your parents aren't always.
Speaker 2: This kookie and how are though?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh no, that's that's pretty normal behavior.
Speaker 1: This is get used to it now, kid, because these
Speaker 1: are your parents. Did you find out the gender or
Speaker 1: the sex of your kids or did you did?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I wanted to know. I was like, I
Speaker 2: just wanted to know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, found out what girls for both of them, I
Speaker 3: mean obviously because that that Yeah, but uh.
Speaker 2: We'll gotta be you know, good, go by the way
Speaker 2: never no, right, but no, they found out ahead of time.
Speaker 2: I just wanted to know.
Speaker 1: Oh, I found out with Tate and then I was
Speaker 1: surprised with Felicity. So I've done it both ways. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't really have a preference. I wanted to know
Speaker 1: with Tate because there were so many unknowns I'd never
Speaker 1: been pregnant before.
Speaker 2: I need I need certainty, right right, I need to
Speaker 2: know things.
Speaker 1: So I found out with him and then with Felicity.
Speaker 2: I was like, let's try it.
Speaker 1: Let's just let's just be surprised. I was convinced it
Speaker 1: was another boy, and then they brought her out and
Speaker 1: it's like it's a girl. And I was like, what really?
Speaker 1: So I had no mother's intuition, but yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: just done.
Speaker 2: Right, everyone's happen.
Speaker 3: Fifty percent of people were like, oh, you're carrying a boy,
Speaker 3: and the other hover were like, oh, it's definitely a girl.
Speaker 1: You're like, okay, it's a fifty to fifty chance, right.
Speaker 3: You're like, it's something I don't it's there's a baby
Speaker 3: in here for sure.
Speaker 1: As long as it's a healthy baby, it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just wanted to know.
Speaker 3: I think, you know why, I just I guess maybe
Speaker 3: I just want to I was like, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think most of peoples find out now because you
Speaker 1: just why wait when you can find out weeks or whenever.
Speaker 1: I think it's earlier now.
Speaker 3: And I also will say the the uh sort of
Speaker 3: gender neutral colors weren't as popular back then, so it
Speaker 3: was really hard to find stuff that was not pink
Speaker 3: or blue, you know, or girly or you know, like
Speaker 3: a little mini sports uniform like so gendered. Right, So
Speaker 3: it was like, yeah, I feel like now I probably
Speaker 3: would be like, no, you know what, there's lots of
Speaker 3: options for like how I can how I want to
Speaker 3: set things up and be prepared, and I don't feel
Speaker 3: like I have to.
Speaker 2: Be you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, yeah, back in back when Felicity was born,
Speaker 1: it was like we had to do everything in yellow
Speaker 1: because right, yellow onesies and that. Yet yeah, other options
Speaker 1: it was either blue, pink or yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3: And which is so silly anyway, It's like it could
Speaker 3: be and you just put them in anything and you're
Speaker 3: gonna puke all over it.
Speaker 2: Anyway, it doesn't matter, right, it's gonna be it's gonna
Speaker 2: be like a like a olive green, you know, pretty soon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So don't get too connected.
Speaker 2: What it's supposed to look like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, those early poops, those, especially if you're breastfeeding, the
Speaker 1: breast breastfed poops are just I don't.
Speaker 2: Even know if the.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's move on quickly, I was trying. We're back
Speaker 1: in the girls room. Joey walks in and asks Michelle
Speaker 1: and Steph if they are ready for their first day
Speaker 1: of school, and Steph is super excited. Are you kidding
Speaker 1: this year? I'm getting a man teacher and he's a
Speaker 1: major babe. Michelle grins ooh, and Steph tells her that
Speaker 1: fourth grade is going to be so awesome. She looks
Speaker 1: down at her beautiful floral dress and admits, I look good,
Speaker 1: I feel good, and I'm wearing a smile. That says,
Speaker 1: Stephanie Tanner, you are a winner.
Speaker 2: What is that from?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Is that from something?
Speaker 2: I thought you were leaving from something?
Speaker 3: It's or it was like a like a an ad,
Speaker 3: like an ad for something or what. Yeah, I feel
Speaker 3: like it was something like almost I don't know, like
Speaker 3: not weight watchers or somebody was like one of those
Speaker 3: like I look good, I feel good, and I'm wearing
Speaker 3: a smile or something like. I feel like it was a.
Speaker 1: That does seem a little familiar, like a Jerry maguire,
Speaker 1: although that was later.
Speaker 2: Giving yourself like some sort of a yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Something okay, Well, your confidence was unmatched, like I was,
Speaker 1: like I wish I was that confident as a fourth
Speaker 1: grader because right, I was feeling just the other.
Speaker 3: Well, let me tell you that dress was one of
Speaker 3: my favorites. I love that so it was cute, little
Speaker 3: ballet flat.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, your hair was adorable.
Speaker 2: Like you look half a half downside pony action.
Speaker 1: You're very grown up, I can tell you. Gottle explosion
Speaker 1: of bangs always still.
Speaker 2: Seasons.
Speaker 1: So Steph walks out of the room with her head
Speaker 1: held high, and Joey asks Michelle how she's feeling about school.
Speaker 1: The soon to be kindergartener admits, well, not as ready
Speaker 1: as she is, and then she asks Joey, are the
Speaker 1: other kids gonna like me? Joey responds nobly, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: let the pet bird fly out of the wind, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I hope it doesn't go as bad
Speaker 2: as pre school.
Speaker 1: Right, she doesn't have a great track window. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: Joey reassures her, of course they're gonna like you. But
Speaker 1: to be sure, you should do what I did on
Speaker 1: my first day of school when kids asked me my name,
Speaker 1: I would just go and he does his Bullwinkle impression
Speaker 1: as he says, hello, my name's Joey Gladstone. He claims
Speaker 1: that after he did that, all the kids laughed and
Speaker 1: they all became friends. Then he tells Michelle to try it.
Speaker 1: She puts her hands on her head to imitate Antlers
Speaker 1: and says, hello, my name is Joey Gladstone. Joey laughs
Speaker 1: and tells her that was good, but next time she
Speaker 1: should try it using her own name. He does the
Speaker 1: Bullwinkle impression once more and use Michelle's name to show
Speaker 1: her and she copies him to a tea.
Speaker 3: Works every time, well excepts how I introduced myself to
Speaker 3: a room full of new people has Bullwinkle. I can't
Speaker 3: even do a buwll Einkle impression. I just breaks the ice,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 2: So there's just like, who are you trying to imitate?
Speaker 2: Yeh yeah, yeah, They're like, are you okay? I'm like, ah,
Speaker 2: just it's a joke, gotcha.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: People love that.
Speaker 1: So next we're on location outside the elementary.
Speaker 3: My gosh, we are outdoors, we are out of the studio.
Speaker 1: People just don't hold on to your hats. I looked
Speaker 1: this up. This is Virginia Road Elementary School off the
Speaker 1: ten and Librea in New KOs City. Yeah, it's near
Speaker 1: Culver City. So yeah, it was great. It's a great,
Speaker 1: great looking building for elementary school. Loved it. Danny and
Speaker 1: Joey are standing with stephan Michelle in front of the school,
Speaker 1: and Michelle is in shock. This is my school, it's
Speaker 1: so big. Joey reminds her that she's a big girl now,
Speaker 1: but she shakes her head, not that big. Danny assures
Speaker 1: her she's going to be just fine, but if she
Speaker 1: needs any help, Stephanie will be in the same school.
Speaker 1: Steph lends her little sister some words of encouragement. Don't worry,
Speaker 1: kindergarten is just like preschool, only without the naps. Michelle
Speaker 1: admits that's too bad. She's good at naps.
Speaker 3: Never heard a kid say that. I never heard been like,
Speaker 3: you know, I'm really you know what. I love naps,
Speaker 3: love him.
Speaker 1: I hate naps, naps. But Michelle's wise beyond her years.
Speaker 2: I'm good at naps. No love naps.
Speaker 1: I love nap. I wish I was better at naps,
Speaker 1: though I always I always nap too long and then
Speaker 1: I wake up cranky. So I really yeah, yeah, you
Speaker 1: have to hit that window, like that twenty to thirty
Speaker 1: minute window and then force yourself awake. Anyways, Danny, Joey,
Speaker 1: and steph all begin to walk toward the school, but
Speaker 1: Michelle doesn't budge. She stares at the building with hesitation,
Speaker 1: and then they grab her hand and lee her inside.
Speaker 1: In the classroom, Danny and Joey lead Michelle into the
Speaker 1: brand new classroom. Danny asks, doesn't this look like the
Speaker 1: happiest place on Earth? Michelle tells him no, that's Disneyland.
Speaker 1: Then Michelle's teacher, Missus Wiltrout, introduces herself to the family.
Speaker 1: She asks what her new student's name is, and Michelle says,
Speaker 1: Michelle Elizabeth Tanner. This is my first day at school.
Speaker 1: Missus Wiltrout smiles, That's okay, it's everybody's first day. Michelle
Speaker 1: is visibly nervous, so Danny crouches down to wish her
Speaker 1: the best first day at school. He knows she's gonna
Speaker 1: love it. Michelle admits, I hope you're right. Then Joey
Speaker 1: crouches down and does his Bullwinkle impression to remind her
Speaker 1: how to make new friends. The guys walk toward the
Speaker 1: door and say goodbye to Michelle, and she gives them
Speaker 1: a small little wave in response. She turns around and
Speaker 1: sets her lunch box down at an airby table. The
Speaker 1: boy who we know. As Teddy looks at her her
Speaker 1: and asks who are you. Michelle puts her hands on
Speaker 1: her head and does her Bullwinkle impression, just like she
Speaker 1: was taught, and says, my name's Michelle Tenner. Teddy looks
Speaker 1: at her like she grew another head. He admits, you
Speaker 1: are a strange kid.
Speaker 3: That is probably the response that I would have expected.
Speaker 1: He's not I mean, he's not wrong, but it's you know,
Speaker 1: it's a little harsh for a first encounter, but as well, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is what.
Speaker 2: Teddy start strong.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like, no, girl, He's like, I'm not gonna.
Speaker 2: Lie to you to be nice.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you that you're strange. He quickly walks away,
Speaker 1: and Michelle sadly states, they hate me already. I'm out
Speaker 1: of here. She walks out of the room and into
Speaker 1: the hallway, which is filled with elementary schoolers that are
Speaker 1: much bigger than her. The bell rings and the kids
Speaker 1: hurry through the halls to get to class. Michelle yells
Speaker 1: to anyone who will listen, excuse me, excuse have you
Speaker 1: seen my sister Stephanie Tanner. None of the kids answer her,
Speaker 1: and soon enough she's left in the hallway all alone.
Speaker 1: The sad music begins to play as Michelle sighs, I
Speaker 1: don't know about this, and yet again she is unsupervised
Speaker 1: and alone this time.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, great, great teacher for kindergarten kid wanders out, yeahs.
Speaker 1: And kids, nobody, there's nobody.
Speaker 2: A short one. Yeah.
Speaker 1: This is so the nineties. Like now you got to
Speaker 1: get like.
Speaker 2: A hall pass.
Speaker 1: You gotta have any thing, right, it's the whole thing now, right. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So next we're at the doctor's office. Becky and Jesse
Speaker 1: are at a pregnancy check up. Becky has to remind
Speaker 1: him that they don't want to know if it's a
Speaker 1: boy or a girl, and Jesse nods in agreement. The
Speaker 1: doctor approaches them and says this is an interesting sonogram boy,
Speaker 1: and Jesse immediately cuts her off and exclaims, it's a boy.
Speaker 1: We'll name him Jesse. He quickly walks over to the
Speaker 1: doctor so he can take a peek at the sonogram.
Speaker 1: He asks, how does the baby's hair look? Doesn't need moosee.
Speaker 1: He's got priorities, you know, he's on a priority.
Speaker 2: Bless Becky, just bless.
Speaker 1: The doctor clarifies that she didn't say it's a boy.
Speaker 1: And Jesse responds, Oh, it's a girl, Jessica Junior. He
Speaker 1: tells Becky she's not dating until she's thirty five. The
Speaker 1: doctor reminds him that she didn't say it's a girl either,
Speaker 1: and Jesse wonders, well, what's left a lot of things.
Speaker 1: Becky decides it's her turn to butt in. All we
Speaker 1: want to know is that the baby is healthy in
Speaker 1: the right. The doctor tells her to relax. She doesn't
Speaker 1: smoke or drink, so she's doing everything right. She assures
Speaker 1: them both that the babies will be just fine. Becky
Speaker 1: is satisfied with the news and begins to walk out,
Speaker 1: repeating the doctor's words that the babies will be just fine,
Speaker 1: but Jesse stops dead in his tracks and asks the doctor,
Speaker 1: did you just say babies? And Becky walks right back
Speaker 1: in and says, did she just say babies? The doctor nods,
Speaker 1: that's what I said. You're having twins. The audience erupts
Speaker 1: into a pause.
Speaker 2: Woo.
Speaker 1: Becky smiles in disbelief, while Jesse stares at the doctor
Speaker 1: in horror. Becky laughs as she asks the doctor who's
Speaker 1: having twins? She responds, you are, congratulations. Becky whips around
Speaker 1: to face Jessie and shouts, we're having twins. She gives
Speaker 1: him a big hug, but he's still frozen in place.
Speaker 1: He finally says, twins. I just wanted to know if
Speaker 1: it was a boy or a girl. He holds up
Speaker 1: two fingers to clarify we're having twins. That's a two
Speaker 1: babies at one time. That's when the first baby comes out,
Speaker 1: and then the second baby comes out, and then we
Speaker 1: take them home and raise them. The doctor tells him
Speaker 1: that's generally how it works pretty much. She hands them
Speaker 1: their sonogram and Jesse holds it up to the light.
Speaker 1: Becky tells them how exciting this is their first baby pictures.
Speaker 1: The doctor shows them the two different heads and mentions
Speaker 1: that sometimes one of the twins will hide behind the other.
Speaker 1: Becky thinks it's adorable that they're already playing together, but
Speaker 1: Jesse doesn't look like he's on the same wavelength. He
Speaker 1: asks the doctor if there are any more hiding back there.
Speaker 2: She's a fair question.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you never know.
Speaker 2: I'm with no offense, but with the size, i'd be like,
Speaker 2: I don't know, I mean three or four.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's got a full house in there. So Becky
Speaker 1: is so excited about all of this, she wants to
Speaker 1: head down to work so she can tell everybody. Jesse
Speaker 1: says he's going to stay back to ask a few questions.
Speaker 1: Becky tells him that they can celebrate tonight. They give
Speaker 1: each other a kiss, and she exclaims, once more, we're
Speaker 1: having twins. He tries to look excited for her, but
Speaker 1: once she's gone, he lets the nerves show. The doctor
Speaker 1: notices him staring at the sonogram and asks if he's
Speaker 1: all right. Jesse tries to convince her that he's doing great.
Speaker 1: It's an extra baby, so he's extra happy. Before he
Speaker 1: was just responsible for one human life, but now he's
Speaker 1: responsible for two. At the sound of this, he lies
Speaker 1: down on the examination table and puts the oxygen mask
Speaker 1: on his face.
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean would be overwhelming.
Speaker 1: You know his reaction is not abnormal. This is shocking news.
Speaker 1: It's overwhelming, So I give him a pass on this.
Speaker 1: You know who took the car though, yet it they
Speaker 1: must have arrived in separate cars.
Speaker 2: Where are they parking all these cars?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm digging too deep. Now, well, yeah, forget it.
Speaker 1: Now you have to pay to park at hospitals, which I,
Speaker 1: you know, have feelings about I don't think have you.
Speaker 2: Two separate cars in San Francisco.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, it's a recipe for disaster, it really is.
Speaker 1: But maybe she was on her way to work, and
Speaker 1: so she's like yeah.
Speaker 3: She was like yeah, because and you know what I
Speaker 3: do often is when the doctor hasn't really told me
Speaker 3: a lot of information, I just go cool, thanks.
Speaker 1: By, and I'm out.
Speaker 3: She's like, anyway, I see you later. Right, you didn't
Speaker 3: really actually even tell me that I'm having twins. You
Speaker 3: just sort of we just guessed, and yeah, you were
Speaker 3: like being coy about it.
Speaker 2: So now I'm going to leave.
Speaker 1: By. Yeah, no more information needed about maybe different plans
Speaker 1: for the delivery or bedroom and whatever is to come,
Speaker 1: you know, none of that. So next we're in Stuff's
Speaker 1: classroom and Stephanie's man teacher is telling his class that
Speaker 1: one of.
Speaker 2: Them is a teacher man or just a teacher.
Speaker 1: Hey, in the nineties, this was rare to have a
Speaker 1: male teach.
Speaker 3: I mean it's yeah, there's it's still they're still underrepresented
Speaker 3: in the JAR.
Speaker 1: I think for my whole you know, K through twelve,
Speaker 1: I probably had one male teacher the entire.
Speaker 3: Girls a couple male teachers and that they loved that
Speaker 3: were just really wonderful and sweet.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, there are they are. My brother, my brother,
Speaker 1: the lawyer. Before he was a lawyer, he was a
Speaker 1: second grade teacher. So and kids loved him. Oh I
Speaker 1: loved him.
Speaker 2: So yeah, they were great. Uh.
Speaker 1: So the man teacher is telling the class that one
Speaker 1: of the most exciting things about fourth grade is that
Speaker 1: they'll be using computers.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Wow, there's a view one in the classroom.
Speaker 1: One one computer, probably very boxy and very slow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you could play snake on it if you're lucky,
Speaker 3: or I don't even know if an organ trails around. Now,
Speaker 3: fourth grade organ trail was around. I remember playing that
Speaker 3: and getting dysentery often.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's so great.
Speaker 1: So he asks if anyone has ever used a computer?
Speaker 2: Has anyone ever? Oh my, I love this. This is
Speaker 2: so god, we're so old.
Speaker 1: This is so nineteen ninety one, because yeah, not everybody
Speaker 1: had a computer.
Speaker 2: Stephanie proudly stands up.
Speaker 1: I've used my sister's computer. She used up the last
Speaker 1: of the cream rints in the shower this morning. That's
Speaker 1: why my hair doesn't have as much body and bounce
Speaker 1: as it usually does.
Speaker 2: My hair never has body and bounces.
Speaker 1: The class stares at her in silence, and she awkwardly says,
Speaker 1: I guess I'll sit down now. She looks around and
Speaker 1: tries to assure everyone I'm really not a geek. Then
Speaker 1: we spot Michelle jumping up to look at Stephanie through
Speaker 1: the door. The man teacher continues, the other thing we'll
Speaker 1: be doing is breaking the class into discovery groups. The
Speaker 1: class door opens and Michelle crawls in, trying to stay undetected,
Speaker 1: but the teacher notices her right away and announces, oh,
Speaker 1: here's our first discovery. Stephanie winces at the sight of
Speaker 1: her younger sister. Michelle crawls under the desk and behind
Speaker 1: stephan whispers it's me Michelle, and Steph whispers back, I
Speaker 1: know who you are. Then the teacher asks if she
Speaker 1: likes to introduce everyone to her guest. Stephanie winces not really,
Speaker 1: so Michelle does the honors. I'm her sister, Michelle, and
Speaker 1: the teacher introduces himself as mister Lowry. Michelle tells her sister.
Speaker 2: You were right. He is a major, babe, and then
Speaker 2: Steph melt into the floor. The second hand embarrassment.
Speaker 1: I felt for your character.
Speaker 3: Steph's like, I'm homeschooled.
Speaker 1: Now. It doesn't get worse than that. This is just
Speaker 1: piling on, oh man. The fourth graders all burst into laughter,
Speaker 1: and Steph just wants to hide for the rest of
Speaker 1: the school year. She asks her sister, through gritted teeth,
Speaker 1: why aren't you in kindergarten? Michelle size nobody likes me there.
Speaker 1: I want to stay with you. The audience aws, but
Speaker 1: Steph lets out a fake laugh. What a sense of humor?
Speaker 1: She asks mister Lowry, can I take her back to kindergarten?
Speaker 1: And he nods, of course you can. She thanks him,
Speaker 1: and then requests try not to teach anything until I
Speaker 1: get back.
Speaker 2: She's just committed. She's very committed to fourth grade, you know.
Speaker 1: She's like, I don't want to miss a single lesson,
Speaker 1: so just, you know, keep your hands busy until I
Speaker 1: get back. Next we're back in the school hallway. Stephanie
Speaker 1: is holding Michelle's hand as she walks her back to
Speaker 1: her classroom, but Michelle begs, I don't want to go back.
Speaker 1: Stephanie tells her, don't worry. Your big sister's on the job.
Speaker 1: Now there's no reason why any of those kindergartener kids
Speaker 1: shouldn't like you. I mean, you're a terrific little person,
Speaker 1: and Michelle responds, don't tell me, tell them. So Stephanie
Speaker 1: opens the door to the classroom and announces, look what
Speaker 1: I found. Miss Wiltrout sighs with relief. There you are, Michelle.
Speaker 1: What happened?
Speaker 3: She wasn't looking very hard, she wasn't didn't leave the classroom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still not feeling very confident about this school
Speaker 1: and the security protocols.
Speaker 2: Well, early nineties, it was a different time. Things are
Speaker 2: so different.
Speaker 1: Michelle points to Teddy and explains that boy said I
Speaker 1: was strange, and Teddy defends himself. She talks with her
Speaker 1: hands on her head.
Speaker 3: Excellent point, everyone knows.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Steph chimes in, I think I can help here, May I.
Speaker 1: Miss Wiltrout gives her the floor and Steph brings Michelle
Speaker 1: with her. She tells the class Michelle was just trying
Speaker 1: to show you the cool new way to say hello,
Speaker 1: the Bullwinkle way. The kids stare at her in confusion,
Speaker 1: so Steph walks them through it. She tells them to
Speaker 1: put their antlers up, and they all obey her command,
Speaker 1: including miss wiltrout. Then Steph tells them to repeat after her.
Speaker 1: She puts on her best Bullwinkle voice and says, good
Speaker 1: morning Michelle.
Speaker 3: If it was best, it was adequate, It was as
Speaker 3: good as I could do.
Speaker 2: Nobody can do that.
Speaker 3: You have to do a voice, was like, I know,
Speaker 3: because when you're when you're like with Dave, you're like,
Speaker 3: nothing's going to be good.
Speaker 1: Nobody's as good as Dave. And it's the worst when
Speaker 1: you have to do something you know you're terrible at
Speaker 1: and you got to perform it multiple times, that's the
Speaker 1: worst feeling.
Speaker 2: But you did.
Speaker 1: Fine, You did just fine.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: The kindergarteners repeat the greeting, and then Michelle responds in
Speaker 1: her Bullwinkle voice, good morning to you. All the kids
Speaker 1: laugh in response, and Stephanie asks, wasn't that fun? Let's
Speaker 1: all thank Michelle for showing us how to be a
Speaker 1: little bit cooler. The fourth graders give Michelle a round
Speaker 1: of applause and say yay, and Steph tells her little sister,
Speaker 1: see they like you.
Speaker 2: Wait, wait, wait, The fourth graders give Michelle around.
Speaker 1: Ap oh sorry, the kindergarteners no, oh.
Speaker 3: No, said I said it on the thing, and I
Speaker 3: was like no, I was like like wait, which, yeah,
Speaker 3: I was very I was sorry. That was really I
Speaker 3: thought I was lost. We have I was wandering the halls,
Speaker 3: wondering sposed to be in.
Speaker 1: We've been in this scene so long that kindergarteners have
Speaker 1: now they've got so Miss Wiltrout tells Stephanie she did
Speaker 1: a good job, and Steph begins to walk out and
Speaker 1: her work here is done.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sense teacher's not doing it so right. Somebody had
Speaker 3: to take charge, somebody, somebody had to find the kid.
Speaker 3: Michelle calls after her, Stephanie. She turns around and asks yes.
Speaker 3: Michelle does her Bullwinkle impression.
Speaker 1: And says thank you very much, and Steph responds, you're
Speaker 1: welcome in the same Bullwinkle voice.
Speaker 2: That was a cute little moment though. It was cute.
Speaker 1: I love that Steph is now the big sister mentoring
Speaker 1: the little sister. You know, it's just you kind of swapped. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know where DJ was mentoring Steph five seeks ago,
Speaker 1: and now you're mentoring Michelle.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 1: So next we're in the kitchen, Danny and Joey are
Speaker 1: watching comments scarf down his lunch Danny congratulates the dog
Speaker 1: for cleaning his plate, and then he reminds Commet to
Speaker 1: do what he taught him. Comet picks up the bowl
Speaker 1: with his mouth and ops it into the sink. The
Speaker 1: audience cheers for the dog, who happily trots away.
Speaker 2: I can kids tell me that, right? I know.
Speaker 1: I think you can train a dog, but much harder
Speaker 1: to train your kids. Danny tells Joey he can learn
Speaker 1: something from Comet.
Speaker 2: I mean, the dog's keeping it together. I know.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: Jesse walks in, looking bewildered from today's events. Danny walks
Speaker 1: up to him and congratulates him on having twins. Jesse
Speaker 1: congratulates him too, adding, boy, when you do something, you
Speaker 1: really do it. They ask Jesse where he's been all day,
Speaker 1: and Jesse tells them he was at the doctor's office.
Speaker 1: Danny checks his watch and points out that their appointment
Speaker 1: was three hours ago. Jesse admits, I forgot I had
Speaker 1: a car, well car, so he.
Speaker 2: Was just wandering around for three hours looking for the car.
Speaker 2: And he looks like, yeah, it's like where did that
Speaker 2: park that?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's at Wake Up San Francisco. But he admits,
Speaker 1: my head is just kind of jammed. Having a baby
Speaker 1: is great, but having twins. Danny tells him that twins
Speaker 1: are gonna be twice as great. Twice the love, twice,
Speaker 1: the hugs, twice the kisses. Then Danny magically duplicates right
Speaker 1: before our eyes. His twin has a five o'clock shadow,
Speaker 1: his shirt's unbuttoned to show most of his chest, and
Speaker 1: he's wearing two gold chains. The twin says, it's not
Speaker 1: that simple, Jesse, boy, twins are twice the feeding, twice
Speaker 1: the crying, twice the diapers, and twice the responsibility. Danny
Speaker 1: looks at his clone and asks, who are you? The
Speaker 1: man responds, I'm your evil twin, Manny Tanner, and Danny
Speaker 1: tells Manny that he needs a shower. This is so weird,
Speaker 1: but you can tell Bob is loving it, Like Bob
Speaker 1: is just loving doing this Manny Tanner bit.
Speaker 3: I was like, so are we all having a like
Speaker 3: a joint delusion?
Speaker 2: Then are we all?
Speaker 3: We're all and that we're all talking to it together, okay,
Speaker 3: and he noticed it.
Speaker 1: I think it's almost always Jesse that's having these like
Speaker 1: the fish eye weird delusions.
Speaker 2: Jesse and Michelle need to go, you know, to a
Speaker 2: real it.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, perhaps a psychiatrist even he could have some
Speaker 3: you know some it happens around early twenties, you know,
Speaker 3: schizoephective disorder can sort of take called.
Speaker 2: It could be something very problematic.
Speaker 3: It could be he's continually seeing strange things and he
Speaker 3: also has twins across the world. Like stop, ros, so
Speaker 3: this is it all comes back and it.
Speaker 1: All comes back to twins.
Speaker 2: You're right?
Speaker 1: Wow, Well, you know, somebody at the live show asked
Speaker 1: us that question, how would you turn full House into
Speaker 1: a soap opera? Here?
Speaker 2: Yet here? That's it. Everyone's everyone has an evil twin.
Speaker 1: Everybode has an evil twin. Some of them increase.
Speaker 3: Some of them are in San Francisco, some of them
Speaker 3: are in Lisbon.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like yeah, they're just all over the map.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: So uh. One of one of these people reminds Jesse
Speaker 1: that twins will mean twice as Oh yeah, Danny. Danny
Speaker 1: reminds Jesse that twins will mean twice as many I
Speaker 1: love you Daddy's and Jesse just rubs his eyes trying
Speaker 1: to make this hallucination stop. Manny tells Danny, you live
Speaker 1: in a bubble. You liceol loving hug freak. Jesse nervously
Speaker 1: looks at Joey, telling him he's really cracking up here.
Speaker 1: Joey guarantees that he'll make a great father, and then
Speaker 1: Joey's twin appears beside him, and he has a slick
Speaker 1: back ponytail.
Speaker 3: And sounds like uh, joe Peshy, Yes he does.
Speaker 1: The twin asks, what do you know? You're thirty three
Speaker 1: years old and you wear Scooby Doo pajamas. The Twin's
Speaker 1: not wrong, Yes, he's not wrong. Joey defends himself, just
Speaker 1: the bottoms, and I suppose you're my evil twin? He responds, yeah,
Speaker 1: what was your first clue? Sherlock? The evil twin turns
Speaker 1: his gaze to Jesse. You can kiss your rock and
Speaker 1: roll days goodbye. You won't look so cool with a
Speaker 1: twin on each arm and a spit up rag on
Speaker 1: each shoulder. Joey frowns, you know, for an evil twin,
Speaker 1: you're not very nice, and the twins snarkily responds, oh, good,
Speaker 1: come back and starts to laugh at him. Manny begins
Speaker 1: to laugh too, causing Danny and Joey to argue with
Speaker 1: each of their evil Twins. Jesse's just watching it all
Speaker 1: in complete and utter horror, before finally yelling for everyone to.
Speaker 3: Stop, as was I, yes, same I do. I'm like,
Speaker 3: is this really happening? Am I hallucinating? Are we all in? It?
Speaker 3: Has time stopped?
Speaker 2: Did we do? Like the out of this world thing?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 2: Did we?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Like the time?
Speaker 1: So? What is.
Speaker 2: This is? It's? It was? It was?
Speaker 3: It was just wasn't sure whose hallucination it was and
Speaker 3: how it was happening that they were all talking to
Speaker 3: each other.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know this this bit didn't
Speaker 1: really land for me. I enjoyed seeing Bob and Dave
Speaker 1: do these different bits. Oh yeah, this whole part just
Speaker 1: didn't really land for me. That's okay. Uh So the
Speaker 1: Evil Twins disappear. Jesse's relieved to see only Danny and Joey,
Speaker 1: but the guys look at Jesse with concern. Joey reminds
Speaker 1: him that he's been up all night, so he probably
Speaker 1: just needs some sleep.
Speaker 2: Okay, So none of that happened.
Speaker 1: None of that really, So Danny and Joey didn't see
Speaker 1: it happen. It was just the audience inside Jesse's head
Speaker 1: got it yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean that seems like it because they are like,
Speaker 3: what happened? We weren't there, we weren't just talking to
Speaker 3: our evil twins. So it feels so what happened? What
Speaker 3: were they doing? I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1: We've put way more thought into this than the writers did.
Speaker 2: So I'm absolutely.
Speaker 1: Absolutely so. Jesse thinks otherwise, and then Comet runs in,
Speaker 1: and there's two of Comet. Finally Jesse's like, hey, you
Speaker 1: know what, maybe a nap wouldn't hurt. Next, Jesse walks
Speaker 1: into the living room and finds Michelle coloring. She asks
Speaker 1: if he wants to play, and he sighs now, shorty,
Speaker 1: I got a lot of stuff on my mind.
Speaker 2: Thanks.
Speaker 1: Michelle responds, a not so fast, mister, park it right
Speaker 1: here for a session. Even Michelle knows now she can
Speaker 1: I anticipate when he needs a session, you know. She
Speaker 1: points to the spot next to her. But Jesse says
Speaker 1: he just really doesn't want to talk right now. Michelle
Speaker 1: reminds me, when has that ever been the case? Never,
Speaker 1: she reminds him he always talks to her. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: And finally Jesse agrees with her. I guess you're right.
Speaker 1: I've been spilling my guts to you since before you
Speaker 1: were able to talk back, right like, They finally say
Speaker 1: what we've all.
Speaker 3: Been thinking this one and the end of the last one,
Speaker 3: Michelle the therapist, here's today.
Speaker 1: Michelle nods, spill those guts and Jesse asks if she's
Speaker 1: heard about this twins thing, and Michelle responds, yes, I did.
Speaker 1: I'm very proud of you. Jesse laughs, thank you. But
Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess I'm just apprehensive, Michelle.
Speaker 2: What's the word you would use with a kindergarten.
Speaker 1: Michelle questions, appra What he explains, apprehensive, It means that
Speaker 1: I'm nervous about the twins. This has got to be
Speaker 1: our little secret, okay, because I'm afraid to talk to
Speaker 1: the family about it.
Speaker 3: So I'm talking to a kindergarten. Kindergarten that's telling her
Speaker 3: not to tell anyone. This is tell the five year
Speaker 3: old to keep a secret.
Speaker 2: That really a big emotional thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, uh, he says.
Speaker 1: The family thinks of me as being so together and
Speaker 1: in control all the time. I just want them to
Speaker 1: see me like this.
Speaker 2: Like that, Jesse.
Speaker 3: I don't think that anyone in the house thinks of
Speaker 3: you as being so together and in control all the time.
Speaker 1: It's that doesn't matter what they think. Jesse thinks that
Speaker 1: that's what they think, right, so you know we're just
Speaker 1: in judging him.
Speaker 2: Uh. He sighs.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do, and Michelle says I do,
Speaker 1: and she yells at the top of her lungs Stephanie.
Speaker 1: Jesse asks, what are you doing? And Michelle explains Stephanie
Speaker 1: helped me at school. She's a genius.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like when you got to see your therapist,
Speaker 3: therapist like that, you kill me, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's like the grand therapist. You're like, yeah, gotta move
Speaker 1: up the ranks, moving up in the rank. Steph runs
Speaker 1: in and asks what's wrong. Jesse tries to tell her
Speaker 1: it's nothing, but Michelle spills the beans. Uncle Jesse's apprehensive.
Speaker 1: That means nervous. Jesse tries to convince Stephanie that he's fine.
Speaker 1: He says, no offense. But I think you're just a
Speaker 1: little young for this problem. But Michelle isn't.
Speaker 2: I don't understand. He thinks of Michelle, yeah.
Speaker 1: And but everyone else is not. So I this is
Speaker 1: a very interesting psychology. And if there's any real life
Speaker 1: therapist listening to this, Please tell it, Please write in and.
Speaker 2: Explain to us the emotional burdening of a child.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, Yeah, the parents of parentification
Speaker 3: sort of of a child. Yeah, the therapistification.
Speaker 1: This is why Michelle didn't return Fuller House, because she's like, like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear your listening to you.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 1: So Steph understands this, and then she takes the liberty
Speaker 1: of yelling out for DJ to come help. DJ comes
Speaker 1: running down the stairs and asks what's going on. Steff
Speaker 1: explains that Uncle Jesse is apprehensive.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 1: Jesse tries to tell them he's fine. He says it's
Speaker 1: an adult thing, but.
Speaker 2: It is not. So DJ has the solution.
Speaker 1: She shouts at the top of her lungs, Dad, Joey, Aunt, Becky,
Speaker 1: Jesse's uncle, Jesse's apprehensive. Oh God. So now they all
Speaker 1: come running in and.
Speaker 2: Jesse tells them he's fine.
Speaker 1: He claims that he's just having a bad hair day,
Speaker 1: so he's a little apprehensive about his pH balance. But
Speaker 1: Michelle reminds him, you said you were apprehensive about the twins.
Speaker 1: Jesse frowns at his therapist and says, here's a new
Speaker 1: word for you. Blabbermouth like, I don't feel bad for you, Jesse.
Speaker 1: You walked right into this. You spilled your guts to
Speaker 1: a five year old and expected her to keep You live.
Speaker 3: In a house with the nosiest people ever, who are
Speaker 3: have not a boundary and are so in.
Speaker 2: Each other's business. You think this is gonna be a secret.
Speaker 3: No, yes, there's no patient doctor hacinating, hallucinating things in
Speaker 3: the kitchen.
Speaker 2: We're gonna find out eventually.
Speaker 1: So Becky asks, I thought you were happy about the twins,
Speaker 1: and Jesse unconvincingly responds, I'm extremely happy. I'm thrilled. But
Speaker 1: he looks her in the eyes and finally admits I'm lying.
Speaker 1: He takes a seat and confesses I'm scared to death.
Speaker 1: Steff speaks up, Uncle Jesse, You're never scared. He shrugs, well,
Speaker 1: I've never been a father before. Having one kid is
Speaker 1: scary enough, but the of having two. DJ tells him
Speaker 1: he's the greatest uncle in the world, but he says
Speaker 1: that being an uncle is easy. He listens to a problem,
Speaker 1: throws in his two cents, and dumps the final decision on.
Speaker 2: The dad or Michelle or Michelle.
Speaker 1: Now he'll be the one responsible his baby's lives are
Speaker 1: going to be in his hands. If he makes one
Speaker 1: wrong decision, he'll screw up two lives. He looks at
Speaker 1: his wife in sighs, Oh, I'm sorry, Becky. You must
Speaker 1: think I'm a real jerk. Becky takes a seat next
Speaker 1: to him and says, no, I'm just as scared as you. Oh.
Speaker 1: Jesse responds, Oh, great, who's gonna take care of our kids?
Speaker 1: They both smile, and Danny lets them in on a secret.
Speaker 1: What you guys are going through is perfectly normal. He
Speaker 1: takes a seat next to them and remembers, I was
Speaker 1: a nervous wreck the first time I became a parent,
Speaker 1: but once you hold that little baby in your arms,
Speaker 1: you can't believe the feeling still terrifying. Yeah, it's still terrifying,
Speaker 1: But I was like, that doesn't just go away.
Speaker 3: And you're like, oh, oh, I'm so happy you're here,
Speaker 3: and now I'm happy and terrified, And I didn't know
Speaker 3: I could feel those two things.
Speaker 2: At the same time.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that terrified feeling lasts pretty much a full year,
Speaker 1: at least a FULLI I'm.
Speaker 3: Still terrified these children are going out with their friends
Speaker 3: now and doing things I'm scared.
Speaker 1: To death to yet newborns and teenagers like be afraid.
Speaker 1: If I put it in a chair, it stayed. You know,
Speaker 1: they just cry a lot and you just wipe their poop.
Speaker 1: That's easy compared to teenagers. Yeah, so Joey chimes in.
Speaker 1: He tells them they're going to be great parents and
Speaker 1: they're all here whenever they need. Danny nods in agreement,
Speaker 1: telling Jesse, for the past four years, you've been living
Speaker 1: in this house and you've been Uncle Jesse. But now
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to be Uncle Danny O. Your kids
Speaker 1: are going to be so clean. Dj offers I'll babysit
Speaker 1: my new cousins anytime except Friday and Saturday nights, and
Speaker 1: Steph adds I'll take Friday and Saturday until I start dating.
Speaker 1: Michelle tells them I'll help too, but no diapers. They
Speaker 1: make me apprehensive. Jesse smiles and thanks them all. He
Speaker 1: admits he's still a little scared, but knowing that they're
Speaker 1: there to back him up makes him happy. Becky tells him,
Speaker 1: I'm sure that we're gonna make our share of mistakes,
Speaker 1: but one thing is for sure. No two kids are
Speaker 1: gonna be loved more and he nods you can count
Speaker 1: on that. They give each other a kiss, and then
Speaker 1: Jesse excitedly tells the family that they have to see
Speaker 1: their first baby picture. Everyone gathers around to look at
Speaker 1: the sonogram and they all awe when they see the twins.
Speaker 1: And that's our show.

Speaker 1: that Jess. I love how honest Jesse is in this episode.
Speaker 1: You know, it's a very relatable feeling.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was.
Speaker 3: And I think also like the feeling that like you
Speaker 3: have to that you can't say anything, that you're nervous,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. And I think a lot
Speaker 3: of new parents go through that, even after you have
Speaker 3: the baby. You know, Oh yeah, you're like, I don't
Speaker 3: I don't know if this is I don't know what
Speaker 3: I'm doing.

Speaker 2: don't know if I like this yet, I don't know
Speaker 2: what I'm doing.
Speaker 3: This is, this is overwhelming, and you know, I just
Speaker 3: think a lot of people think, like, oh, you can't
Speaker 3: say that, because somehow it makes you.
Speaker 1: Say, don't yeah, to be a parent or to no,
Speaker 1: it's just it's a lot, it's a big deal.

Speaker 1: People think, oh, it's a magical time, and I'm like, no,

Speaker 1: of pretending like everything is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's yeah, becoming a parent isn't easy or
