1
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: We went to Vegas and you in Vegas.

2
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: Nope, I won, But I wanted you to talk about

3
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 2: that I did. I won't even talk about that because

4
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: it was not the highlight of the weekend. And you

5
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: know how much I like to gamble, wasn't.

6
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: So what did you have at the buffet? Well, we

7
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: did go to the buffet.

8
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:38,319
Speaker 3: Do you know me?

9
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: Very well? There you go. But I got to visit

10
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 1: the Sphere.

11
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: I have been following the Sphere for years as it

12
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: was being built.

13
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 4: It was the first person to ever tell me about it.

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 4: I was like, what are you talking about? Oh, yeah,

15
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 4: it's going to be insane.

16
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: It's going to be crazy.

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: And and you know, Jensen went and saw Dead and Co.

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: At the end of May, and I am have never

19
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: been a grateful Dead fan.

20
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: I didn't. I don't know any of the Dead and

21
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: Co music.

22
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 2: I truthfully have had many many an opportunity to go

23
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: and have always been like, no, it's not my thing.

24
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 5: That was my whole high school, by the way, Yeah,

25
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 5: all my friends Fish and the Dead that's all they

26
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 5: ever listened to.

27
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: Yes, not my thing.

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: Even though also had probably never heard a song, just

29
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: knew somehow it wasn't my thing and would just.

30
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: No thanks, no thanks. And then Dead and Co.

31
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 2: Was doing their last weekend at the Sphere and Jensen said, listen,

32
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: I know you think you're not a fan of the music.

33
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: I get it, fine, This is not just about being

34
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: a fan of the music. It is a full experience

35
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: and I think you would love it. And I said,

36
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: all right, I'm willing. I'm willing to give it a shot.

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: When I tell you, it is single handedly the most

38
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 2: incredible live show period I have ever seen Broadway plays, concerts,

39
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: circ desole anything. It is a one hundred percent head

40
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 2: to toe, full body experience that is amazing, and I

41
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 2: want to give the experience to as many people as possible.

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: Like if I just I'm like changed, I said, And

43
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 2: I didn't. And it's not even hyperbole. My wedding date,

44
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 2: the dates of my children, and the date I saw.

45
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: Dead and Co. Are all kind of in the stay.

46
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 3: You're going to get a tattoo over those days.

47
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to get a gum, I'm going to get

48
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: a bear tattoo. I'm going to get I'm like, I've.

49
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 5: Heard, Okay, so I've heard about the Sphere. I do

50
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 5: not do well in anything, even close to being motion simulatory,

51
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 5: Like I get very nauseous and can't do it. And

52
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 5: I've heard that the Sphere can really make you nauseous.

53
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: Well did you experience any of that?

54
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 2: I did not, and I can also get a little

55
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 2: bit nauseous. I don't have it nearly as bad as

56
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 2: say Jensen does. Jensen does take drama meine, so he

57
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 2: takes too drama meine before the show starts, just to

58
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 2: in case.

59
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 3: But also it's.

60
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 2: No he takes some dramamine doesn't then get affected by it,

61
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: I will say, And I don't know about this for

62
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 2: other bands that are going to be at the Sphere

63
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: or other events that are going to be at the Sphere.

64
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: But John Mayer very specifically went and worked on the

65
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: Dead and Co.

66
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: Show.

67
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: They have a simulator in Burbank, and he went regularly

68
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: and would wait and find the moments when people would

69
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: start getting sick, and then would work on it. He

70
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: spent a lot of time trying to make sure it

71
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: wouldn't do that for people, So it was very specifically

72
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: tailored to try and limit that from happening.

73
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: It didn't happen to me at all.

74
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: I I literally, if we're so lucky that Dead and

75
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 2: Coe ever goes back to the Sphere, which I have

76
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: fingers crossed hope they do. I am like willing to

77
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: spend whatever I want to get a box.

78
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: I want to bring you guys.

79
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: I want to bring all my friends, Like it's the

80
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 2: kind of experience you I just want to I'm so

81
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: jealous of previous me who had never seen it, and

82
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 2: now I want to bring other people for the first

83
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 2: time and then just watch them experiencing it.

84
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 4: Here's here's a question. Have you since found yourself listening

85
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: to the music difference?

86
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 5: Like, do you now want to freshman in high school?

87
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: I just found the Dead.

88
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: I like, I've yes, It's unbelievable. I'm like reading their history,

89
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 2: it's truly incredible, truly incredible. So it was a really, really,

90
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 2: really fun, absolutely life changing event, and I'm so happy

91
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: that I went.

92
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 6: There was a moment early in the show. I won't

93
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 6: spoil it for if they come back to the Sphere,

94
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 6: but there's kind of this like aw firing moment where

95
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 6: it's kind of shocking visually and it's it's beautiful and

96
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 6: you know, you kind of go on this journey and

97
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 6: I'm thinking to myself Danielle is going to love this.

98
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 7: Danielle's going to love this.

99
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 6: And I'm just kind of immersed in the show, and

100
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 6: I decide I'm going to look over at Danielle.

101
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 7: And I look over at Danielle and she's sobbing.

102
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,799
Speaker 1: So I was, I was crying.

103
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 7: It was beautiful. She was sobbing. I was just like, man,

104
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 7: she gets it. She's fully in this. It was awesome.

105
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, incredible.

106
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 5: Well, there's a reason why people have been spent their

107
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 5: entire lives following this band. So from the nineteen sixties,

108
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 5: I mean they've I had friends who their life was

109
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 5: following The Dead and then it translated into Fish back East,

110
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 5: and then they followed Fish, but this it was it's

111
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 5: a cult. We talked the other day on the pod,

112
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 5: like I was just listening to one where we talk

113
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 5: about subcultures.

114
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, The Dead is a full subculture.

115
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 5: They have a barter system, they have a parking system

116
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 5: where you're parking your cars they I mean, it's it's

117
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 5: a lifestyle. So yeah, it's so cool that you're experience

118
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 5: of that. Now, we got to do Pink Floyd.

119
00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: I know, we got to go to Burning Man.

120
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 2: Well, we have to draw the line somewhere writer, Welcome

121
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: to pod Meets World.

122
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: I'm Danielle Fischel, I'm Writer Strong, and I'm Casey Jones.

123
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: I'm well for Dell.

124
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 2: Today we are recapping season five, episode eleven, A Very

125
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 2: Topanga Christmas. It originally aired December nineteenth, nineteen ninety seven.

126
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: The synopsis Topega spends Christmas at the Matthews home for

127
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: the first time, but when traditions clash, Corey starts to

128
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: have doubts about their future together. It was directed by

129
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 2: David Kendall and it was written by Andy Guerdatt, who

130
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 2: I think this is now his second script that we

131
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 2: have done. So what did you guys think?

132
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: Hmm?

133
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 4: I really didn't like the first half at all. Yeah,

134
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 4: just miserable, you know, like into the very you know,

135
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 4: I mean, look, Bill Daniels and a Christmas Carol just

136
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 4: make a perfect combination, that whole bit. I love that

137
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 4: when he shows up, Corey's like, you look like a doorman,

138
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 4: Like I just you know, it's like a Christmas Carol

139
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 4: episode is always fun. I always like time travel stuff,

140
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 4: and so I.

141
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 5: Got into that they got into that late in the

142
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 5: episode because that's what I mean.

143
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what saved it for me. I was like, okay,

144
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 4: because like up until then, it was a very run

145
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 4: of the mill nineties men women, you know, nagging woman

146
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 4: Trope and Cory. I just didn't like anybody. I was like,

147
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 4: I don't like that, and it didn't.

148
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 3: Feel true to the characters.

149
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 4: It didn't feel true to Alan. I don't know, none

150
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 4: of it just it was like, what is happening? It

151
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 4: just feels like an idea for a show. And then

152
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 4: we shoe horned these characters into these tropes.

153
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: And that didn't like.

154
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 4: I was just like, the Pang is better than this,

155
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 4: Corey's better than that, everybody's I don't like, this is

156
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 4: not you know. And then my storyline is so slight

157
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 4: with Jack. But then, like like I said, at the end,

158
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, you know, the ice skating thing

159
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 4: was great, and the time travel stuff was like fine,

160
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: it was fun.

161
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: I Uh, I liked it.

162
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 5: I mean again, I liked Danielle that you and I

163
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 5: got to work together a little bit, which is something

164
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 5: that I enjoyed. I also think it's perfectly in keeping

165
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 5: with Alan, who Thanksgiving was very important and I think

166
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 5: he's one of those Christmas is very important They've set

167
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 5: him up as he's the holidays are very important to Alan,

168
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 5: and so I think it was actually kind of perfectly

169
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 5: in keeping with with Alan as a character.

170
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 4: Well it's I guess it's the scene with Corey when

171
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 4: he's like, you.

172
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 3: Just got to deal with here's a model airplane.

173
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 4: I was like, what, Like, this is the show where

174
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 4: we talk to each other and we you know, encounter

175
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 4: difficulty and we get through it.

176
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 5: We don't just say we'd like to be mad, right,

177
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 5: but we did. I mean we did kind of come

178
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 5: off that yesterday. We came out not yesterday. I came

179
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 5: off with that with the last episode too, where it's

180
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 5: kind of like I want to I want to put

181
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,599
Speaker 5: up the the satellite dish and you want me to

182
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 5: talk to you, and I mean it's again at the

183
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 5: The thing I'm starting to realize more and more, which

184
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 5: I'm trying to beat into my head is it's boy

185
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 5: meets World. It's supposed to be about everything from the

186
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 5: man and boys point of view. I mean, to the

187
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 5: point where we're adding another character and it's another dude.

188
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 5: You know, it's like that's what they were going for,

189
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 5: And I'm seeing that more and more so once I

190
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 5: kind of figured that out. Again, I just I thought

191
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 5: some of the comedy worked frankly, and it was kind

192
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 5: of a Christmas romp. Again, Am I going this is

193
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 5: the best episode you've ever had?

194
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: No, certainly not, but I with you.

195
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 5: I agree on hundred percent where it's like Bill Daniel

196
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 5: sitting down reading like I just want he could have

197
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 5: just sat there for twenty two minutes and read the

198
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 5: book and I would have that would have been my

199
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 5: favorite episode that I do.

200
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, ever seen so I you know, I didn't hate it,

201
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: didn't love it. It was it was good, but it

202
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: wasn't great. That's yeah, that's kind of how I acted it.

203
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: I'm pretty much in enjoyed it.

204
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: I think mostly because even though I agree writer, it

205
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 2: does feel like they had a funny idea for an

206
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: episode and then had to figure out the ways that

207
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 2: the character they could shoehorn it in for the characters.

208
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: But I also know coming from a family.

209
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 2: Who has a mom that loves Christmas traditions and having

210
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: been in enough relationships where then you know everybody's got

211
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 2: their own traditions and nobody wants to see their traditions

212
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: go to the wayside, And even from the standpoint of, like,

213
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 2: you know, I've been in situations on a holiday before

214
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: where it's like people are like, how much food could

215
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 2: we possibly have? But of course I have to make

216
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 2: stuffing for this person and I had to and they

217
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 2: even had to bring their own stuffing, and then they

218
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: like granberry sauce, but we don't need granberry sauce. It's

219
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: like you end up with and that can be frustrating

220
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 2: for people to feel like their holiday that they love

221
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 2: has been hijacked by other people's things.

222
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: It's like, so I could relate to it.

223
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 2: I understood the idea that Topanga would want to bring

224
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 2: in some of her own things and and could end

225
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: up feeling really pushy in the process.

226
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: So I I enjoyed it. I mean it should have

227
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: been for me.

228
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 5: It should have been more outlandish though, like the idea

229
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 5: that she wants cider. Okay, that's not a big deal,

230
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 5: cider that's not that's not a big problem. Where this

231
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 5: would have been a perfect opportunity to bring back some

232
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 5: of the original Topanga character where the things she does

233
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 5: at Christmas are truly outlandish, where it's kind of like

234
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 5: you thought, she's become a different to Panga but when

235
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 5: you cut to all of them into weird a weird

236
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 5: head dress where this is in like ceremonial garb, like

237
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 5: that could have been funny where you bring it back,

238
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 5: but hey, I want a real tree and I want cider.

239
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: Okay that those are not big asks, you.

240
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 4: Know, And I think that that part it's really when

241
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,599
Speaker 4: Topanga is waking Corey up in the middle of the

242
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: night and it's just you know that from that scene

243
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 4: until the real Christmas Carol stuff, I was like, what

244
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 4: are we doing?

245
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: Like what is this?

246
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 4: You're like, it's just about again because she's not She's

247
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 4: waking him up at three am to just talk and

248
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 4: he's wanted to get laid and he you know, and

249
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: then he goes down and his dad is there, Oh,

250
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 4: she wanted to talk.

251
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: And I was just like, oh, it's just, you know, it's.

252
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 4: Just leaning into those things that we're just so clearly

253
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 4: in a bubble, you know, and ideologically, and you're right,

254
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 4: it's it's it's part of the show is that it's

255
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 4: a boy's perspective, I guess, but I just kind of

256
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 4: was like, well, can we can do better? Can't we?

257
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 5: I just felt sad too, because I knew the second

258
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 5: she knocked on the door. Corey wasn't getting any knew

259
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 5: that wasn't gonna happen. So it's like, yep, that's not And.

260
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: Then I turned to Soon and I said, we've been together.

261
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 5: What known each other twenty five years, been together fifteen

262
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 5: whatever it is, You've never once woke me up a

263
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 5: three o'clock in the morning.

264
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: Never, never, never. Apparently it's a big parent, it's a

265
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 1: big thing.

266
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: Women.

267
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: Do do you wake up Jensen in the middle of

268
00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 1: the night to talk to him? No?

269
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: In the past has woken me up, and I have

270
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 2: turned to him with a demon eyes and been like,

271
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 2: do not wake me up.

272
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 5: There's times where Sue and I will be traveling somewhere

273
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 5: where you know, we're on a different time and neither

274
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 5: of us are sleeping at four o'clock in the morning,

275
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 5: and that'll end up in a big conversation.

276
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: But never like I'm going to wake you up to

277
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: talk to you. It's never happened. Does Alex wake you

278
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: up to talk to you the moment the night? I

279
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: don't know. See, that's yeah.

280
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 5: So this happened to one guy one time, and he

281
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 5: wrote a story about it.

282
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: Jensen didn't used to wake me up to talk. Jensen

283
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 2: would wake me up to let me know he had

284
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 2: a headache, and I would go, Okay, I can't do

285
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: anything about that.

286
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: Now you have a headache and I'm awake.

287
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 5: And.

288
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: Now we're both upset. So this is fun.

289
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 6: Listen my argument to this. My headaches were not normal.

290
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: Headaches were migrains, and I would.

291
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 6: Vomit and all these things, and I used to Honestly,

292
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 6: there are points in these headaches I don't get him anymore,

293
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 6: which is a dream.

294
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 7: But at one point I did think I was going

295
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 7: to die from them.

296
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 2: And he would have to ask me, am I going

297
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: to die? And I would say no, I mean I

298
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: might kill you, but you weren't gunning until.

299
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: Five minutes ago. Now it's fifty to fifty.

300
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 6: I mean, it's really.

301
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 4: Well.

302
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: I'm glad you don't get him anymore, Jesuo.

303
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: So now we can hop into our recap. We start

304
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: in the Matthews living room. It's a Christmas episode. In

305
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: what month do you think we shot these Christmas episodes?

306
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 2: Do you think it was October?

307
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: November? End of September October?

308
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 6: Right?

309
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 5: We were we normally four ahead, three or four ahead yeah, I.

310
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: Would say October November. It wouldn't be like July.

311
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a thing where we would be in

312
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 2: the middle of summer, so it would feel like it's

313
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: inching close to Christmas time. Alan and Eric are putting

314
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: up their aluminum Christmas tree.

315
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 7: No have you guys?

316
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: Have you anyone have an aluminum tree?

317
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 4: And we weren't shown the Matthews Christmas christ before we did.

318
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 4: It's a normal Christmas.

319
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 5: Yes, we had an aluminum tree growing up in the

320
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 5: boy's bedroom, like we had our own little fun tree

321
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 5: that my brothers and I could decorate.

322
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: But no, a tree was a tree?

323
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 7: A tree?

324
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I've never seen this.

325
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: Alan is struggling with a section but insists the tree

326
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: looks good as new, even after twenty years. I love

327
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 2: this tree. I like you, Eric, but I love this tree.

328
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 2: Corey comes storming down the stairs. I'm just asking you please,

329
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 2: Tapang is going to be staying here for Christmas overnight. Eric,

330
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: could we please not run naked down the hall singing

331
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: we wish you a merry Christmas. Eric is offended. I

332
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: only do it because people have come to expect it.

333
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: Alan asks if there's anything embarrassing he does that, Corey

334
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: would like to mention. Corey asks, at this stage of

335
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: your life, are you capable of change? Alan admits no,

336
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: so Corey caves, Okay.

337
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: So just when you do it, say excuse me again

338
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: taking from our lives. I mean I run down the

339
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: hallway naked singing that all the time for Christmas, and

340
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: they're like, they just keep from us. Yeah, it is right.

341
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: I love it. Merry Christmas.

342
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: Corey pulls Eric I'll to the side and pulls a

343
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 2: little box out of his pocket. Eric gasps, oh, ring,

344
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 2: that is so sweet, but I can't accept this. We're family,

345
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: it'd be wrong. Corey reveals it's a promise ring for Tapanga.

346
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 2: It symbolizes that they'll be together forever. Eric smiles. That's

347
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: really precious. You guys must be the most precious couple

348
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 2: in the universe.

349
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: You're freaks. Were promise rings a thing for you at all?

350
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: No, that's my parents had a pro right, Well, my

351
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: parents had a promise ring, so it wasn't wasn't for me.

352
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 2: But I was aware of them because it's a very

353
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 2: famous story in our family that my parents had been dating,

354
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 2: I think for a couple of years. They met at fifteen,

355
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: started dating at fifteen. They had been together for a

356
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: couple of years. My mom's all of my mom's girlfriends

357
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 2: who were in long term relationships had started getting promise rings,

358
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 2: and so my mom wanted a promise ring. And she

359
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 2: was like, all right, you know, we have an anniversary

360
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 2: coming up. She was like dropping hints left and right.

361
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: She's like, I've made it very clear. I want a

362
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 2: promise ring, and for them, they're for their anniversary. My

363
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: dad presented my mom a very heavy box and she

364
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 2: took it and thought, oh my gosh, this is so cute.

365
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 2: He waited it so I wouldn't know that it's a ring,

366
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 2: and she opened it and it was a bowling ball.

367
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and my dad was so excited. But he was like,

368
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: cause we go bowling. It's a gift that keeps on giving.

369
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: You don't have to use the Laan balls. It's brilliant.

370
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 2: She was like, she's literally like trying to put her

371
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 2: hands in the holes, like is there a ring inside?

372
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: Is there a ring in the hole?

373
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: So I knew promise rings, but they were not around

374
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 2: when we were kids. So this is this is a

375
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 2: little bit of like our writers.

376
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, a promise ring and then at the generation before,

377
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 5: like my parents, I think it was pinning. Oh so

378
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 5: like you would pin, you'd take your high school pin

379
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 5: or something like that. And if you pin the girl

380
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 5: you're with or the guy gets pinned, you're like a

381
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 5: pinned couple. So I think that was like jacket right,

382
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 5: thinking the letterman Jaggiya.

383
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 2: So then Amy walks through the door, followed by Tapanga.

384
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 2: Core Look what I brought you for Christmas?

385
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: He greets his girlfriend.

386
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: Oh look, miss Topanga head to Pega, hugs him and

387
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 2: thanks the Matthews for letting her spend Christmas with them.

388
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: My parents went on a cruise to Barbados, but I

389
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: told them, nope, I wanted to spend Christmas with Corey.

390
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 2: So this couple who went to Barbados, do we think

391
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 2: this is the Jedediah and Chloe.

392
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: We yeah.

393
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: They seem they don't seem like a Christmas in Barbados couple.

394
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: They do not. They do not at all.

395
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 5: They seem like they the way they were set up,

396
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 5: they seem like we celebrate our every Christmas in a

397
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 5: soup kitchen.

398
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 1: And we're there helping people all day long. Like that's

399
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: what it seems like they.

400
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 4: Are Yeah, the physical people that play them are going

401
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 4: to change.

Speaker 7: Several correct, Hi.

00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: Is the question, That's what I'm saying.

404
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 2: I think we're already leaning into this new re written

405
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 2: version of Topanga.

406
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, because we'll also where's an pru, right? Couldn't you

407
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 4: just stay with her?

408
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: Yeah?

409
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 2: Alan then and Dursey wants to celebrate Topega's first off

410
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 2: use Christmas with his special eggnog. Everyone excitedly grabs one.

411
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: Tapanga tastes it. It's great, But have you ever tried

412
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 2: hot mould cider? The guys look at her like she's crazy.

413
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 2: Eric sternly states, no, we're an og family. To Penga backtracks.

414
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 2: I would never want to interfere with tradition. It's just

415
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 2: that my family's always had cider. Corey says they can

416
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: have both, but Eric isn't buying it at the supermarket.

417
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: The Siders nowhere near the eggnog. You know why they

418
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 2: hate each other. Alan Hans's keys to Eric, go get

419
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: to Panga some cider. Eric asks gas money, and Alan

420
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 2: promptly says no go. Corey volunteers to go with Eric

421
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 2: and asks Topanga if there's anything else that will make

422
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: her Christmas more enjoyable to Penga smiles. No, and I'm

423
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 2: really sorry to put you guys out. It's just that

424
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 2: cider on Christmas is my family's one tradition. Well that

425
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 2: and we go to our favorite evergreen tree farm, but

426
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,479
Speaker 2: everyone has one of Then she spots the silver Christmas tree.

427
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 2: What the heck is that Tapega's family gets their Christmas

428
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,479
Speaker 2: on the Christmas tree on like Christmas Eve, they go

429
00:19:59,520 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 2: to the.

430
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that's when all the best ones are still available.

431
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: Is the day before Christmas. Everyone knows. I start time figuring.

432
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 3: Out a little leftover.

433
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had a hard time figuring out when was

434
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 2: it Christmas Eve? And when is it Christmas Eve Eve? Like,

435
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: I think this is Christmas Eve Eve.

436
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 4: But this phrase that we used throughout the episode, Christmas

437
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 4: Eve day, I've never heard in my life.

438
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 3: Have you guys ever said that?

439
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,120
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we say that, sure, it's Christmas Eve day,

440
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 4: it's Christmas Christmas Eve. Well, no, because the day is

441
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 4: Christmas Eve, but it's Christmas Eve Christmas evening short for evening,

442
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,719
Speaker 4: but that Christmas Eve is the title of the day.

443
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 4: I was like, why would you ever say Christmas Eve day?

444
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: Christmas Eve day?

445
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 4: You did. I turned to Alex, I was like, have

446
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 4: you ever said that? She's like, no, it's Christmas Eve.

447
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, this is bizarre, but all right,

448
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 4: I stand corrected.

449
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, because we would we would have to sometimes

450
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: split it up between families. Would be like, well, I'm

451
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 2: spending Christmas Eve Day here, and then I'll be spending

452
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 2: Christmas Eve there and Chris Christmas Morning.

453
00:20:59,160 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: Is another thing.

454
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 4: I maybe, yeah, that like distinguishing when you're actually like

455
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 4: scheduling out, but when you're talking when you're on the day, you're.

456
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: Like, right, it's Christmas Eve.

457
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't say it's Christmas eve Day.

458
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 3: We have to do the things that we do for

459
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 3: Christmas Eve Day.

460
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 4: I've never heard it in that conflict.

461
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: You don't wake your kid up in the morning and

462
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: say it's Christmas Eve.

463
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 4: More Christmas Eve Day. We know it's Christmas Eve morn

464
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 4: in the morning, Christmas. What are we doing for Christmas

465
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,360
Speaker 4: Eve during the day. We're gonna do this tonight, We're

466
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 4: gonna do you say.

467
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: Oh goshive lunchtime.

468
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 2: I also did think if Tapangas one tradition was the

469
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 2: mold cider, how hard is that to bring with you like, great,

470
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 2: just brings some cider with you and be like, hey, guys,

471
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 2: this is what our family does, and I wanted to

472
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 2: share it with you. You don't just walk into someone's

473
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: home and go so, where's my stuff?

474
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 3: Yeah?

475
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 5: I also you think he might have a she might

476
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 5: have a conversation with Corey beforehand, like I'm coming to

477
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 5: Christmas because you know people come to our house. We

478
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 5: know they're coming to our house. The first thing I

479
00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 5: ask is like, is there anything you want me to

480
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 5: pay up?

481
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: Is there anything you want to grab or do any guy?

482
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah something?

483
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: So yeah, well we like it. It should have just

484
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: been there already, I know, but we need car.

485
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 4: Even that could have been the source of the conflict,

486
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 4: like Corey, remember I told you I like cider. Yeah,

487
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 4: and he's like oh, and then it's like oh and

488
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 4: then Corey. Because as it is, Corey is sort of

489
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 4: like an innocent victim of Topanga's you know, insanity for

490
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: the whole first half of this episode, whereas if he

491
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 4: had been somewhat guilty of like messing something up, I

492
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 4: would have felt better about, like you got to make

493
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 4: this up to Tapanga. Instead, it's like Tapega's just portrayed

494
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 4: as like Bossy and Ypega.

495
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: Had walked in with her own cider and was like celebrated.

496
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 2: You know, He's excited to give them the nog and

497
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 2: she's like, oh, but I do cider.

498
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: Let's all have cider.

499
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 2: And they're like, we don't really want to have cider,

500
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 2: but she's pushing it on them.

501
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's because again they're still having their egg nog.

502
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 5: So what it should have been is let's get Corey

503
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 5: bring in the nog, and Corey brings insider.

504
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: Well, Topanga wan insider, so we only have.

505
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, we already sacrifice art traditions.

506
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 5: It's like you already have your egg nog houses messing

507
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 5: up your day at all a little more nuanced.

508
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, then we get a slight optical flip and we

509
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 2: are now at the Evergreen Tree Farm. To Panga peaks

510
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 2: her head around a tree and presses her luck. As

511
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 2: long as we're in Vermont, could we stop and get

512
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 2: some syrup, Alan sarcastically states we'd be nuts not to.

513
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 2: Topanga walks off, leaving the guys to get her selected tree.

514
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 2: Eric is fuming this is going to be the best

515
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 2: Christmas ever. Ask her if she still wants it on

516
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 2: the twenty fifth Corps.

517
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 5: And then we're either you always asked us, Daniel, do

518
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 5: either of you remember this episode or shooting this at

519
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 5: all in any way shape, I remember one thing from

520
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 5: the episode, in one thing only really what that Ben

521
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 5: didn't know the Christmas Carol and he didn't know what

522
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 5: it was.

523
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,159
Speaker 4: All I remember is Ben being so stressed out about singing,

524
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 4: and he was so nervous and he was such a

525
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 4: big deal. And I thought it was like that he

526
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 4: sang the whole song and it was like this big

527
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 4: concert moment. So when it happened, I was like, that's it.

528
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 4: That's what he was nervous about. The whole week revolved

529
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 4: around anxiety over having to sing, and I thought that

530
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 4: when he did it, it was like a huge accomplishment

531
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 4: and then the audience went crazy, and so in my

532
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 4: mind it was literally like, I thought, the same sings,

533
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 4: the door opens, and it's like this big moment. And

534
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 4: so when it happened into the you can barely hear him. Yeah,

535
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 4: I thought it was like Tapanga's showing up from I

536
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 4: think I confused him with the long walk to Pittsburgh,

537
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 4: but I thought it was like this big climactic return

538
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 4: of Corey singing this beautiful song and as it was,

539
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 4: it's like you can barely hear him and he's on

540
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 4: the other side of the door, and then it's over.

541
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 3: And then I was like, what that was it?

542
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 4: And it's so funny that my memory is completely just

543
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 4: altered by the experience on the set, which was that

544
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 4: Ben was really genuinely freaked out and he went and

545
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 4: I remember Ben could sing like Ben would sing a lot.

546
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 4: He loved musicals, so I but he was nervous about,

547
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 4: you know, singing this song and having to sing can.

548
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 5: Sing with Betsy, and he was great, That's what I

549
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 5: remember that, Yeah, but he didn't know a.

550
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 4: Big deal about it, and it like clearly just you

551
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 4: know that his anxiety like spread to all of us

552
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 4: and it became like the thing that I remember about

553
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 4: this episode too.

554
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: Yep, that's so funny.

555
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 2: Funny, I didn't remember any of that, So thank you

556
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 2: for sharing.

557
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 1: And then we're back in the Matthews living room.

558
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 2: The new evergreen tree is up and decorated to Panga

559
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 2: tells the boys, this is my first Christmas away from

560
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 2: my family, and I just really want to thank you

561
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 2: for making me feel a part of yours. Eric smirks,

562
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: you're welcome, honey, and Corey shoots him a look to Pang.

563
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 2: It continues, so what time on Christmas Eve do you

564
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 2: guys open your presence? Eric explains they do it on

565
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 2: Christmas morning to penga size Oh. Eric questions, oh, and

566
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 2: he ended Upanga go back and forth with some more o's.

567
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 2: The rally is broken when Eric calls a conference with Corey,

568
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 2: moving him away from Tapanga. Eric blurts out, welcome to

569
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 2: the rest of your life. Corey thinks it's no big deal,

570
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 2: so she opens her presence on Christmas Eve. Eric assures

571
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 2: him it isn't about the presence or the real tree,

572
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: Corey confesses, so she makes purring noises. When we make out,

573
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 2: Eric is stunned. Corey realizes he's said too much.

574
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 5: Said too much by the way opening presents Christmas Eve.

575
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 5: So apparently Topanga's family is very German, because that's a

576
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 5: German thing. You open your presence the night before. Yeah,

577
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 5: I wonder if she's from a German family. Yeah, that's

578
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 5: Jenson's family did that as well. Christmas Eve gift opening

579
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 5: we did.

580
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 4: We got to open one present on Christmas Eve. And

581
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 4: it was always pajamas, you know, And eventually we figured out, like,

582
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 4: we know what this is. It's going to be the

583
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 4: pajamas we wear tonight and tomorrow morning.

584
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's nice.

585
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 5: My brothers and I would exchange the day before, so

586
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 5: Christmas Eve Day with the sibling Christmas, we'd always exchange

587
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 5: with each other, and then the next day.

588
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: Was all the all the regular stuff.

589
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 4: Did you guys have any Christmas traditions like that, you

590
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 4: know or like, well.

00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 5: and the kids if they were in the monster trucks.

603
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, he'd tried to pick.

Speaker 5: I get a mailed out.

609
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,679
Speaker 1: To writer, Your grandmother's chocolate is.

610
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, Grandma's chocolate, And we made it last year.

611
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 4: We and my mom found the handwritten recipes.

612
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 3: We made it last year, so we're gonna perfect it

613
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 3: this year.

614
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, So my Grandma's chocolate was a huge thing

615
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 4: in our house.

616
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: It was amazing. It was amazing. Yeah, oh so good.

617
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 4: And then I think I've talked about how we would

618
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 4: not have a Christmas tree. We would have red with

619
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 4: tree branches that were like thirty feet tall that we

620
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: wired together to make a Christmas tree. Of course, the

621
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 4: dining room my parents' house is this big, like octagonal

622
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 4: shaped window thing that my dad built, so it's very tall,

623
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 4: and the whole place would be the tree. And we

624
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 4: had a platform with a train underneath it, so we

625
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 4: would always set up the train and like build a

626
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 4: little town, and then Santa would go on top of

627
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 4: the tree. We have this little stuffed Santa, the creepiest

628
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 4: stuffed Santa you've ever seen.

629
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: Oh, we have some creepy stuff Santas too.

630
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 4: And this this is like from the nineteen forties or

631
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 4: fifties with like I had to be the face, like

632
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 4: this plastic face. Yeah, he's since gone to rest rest

633
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 4: in peace. That that stuffed Santa. I got a top

634
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 4: piece Silo's dog and got it's gone.

635
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 8: Yeah.

636
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 4: I think Gordy finally tore that Santa up one year.

637
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 4: But the tradition was that I always put Santa on

638
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 4: the tree. So it was like once the tree was decorated,

639
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 4: the last thing we'd do is that me, as the youngest,

640
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 4: I would put Santa on the tree. Those are really

641
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 4: kind of only our heart and traditions, I think.

642
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,959
Speaker 1: Do you know how Santa became red and white? No?

643
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: Do you know the story of this Coca Cola? Yeah,

644
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: Coca Coca Cola invented the modern day Santa Claus.

645
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

646
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, we won't get into it.

647
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 7: Look it up.

648
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: It's great, right. Yeah. What about you, Danielle, Wait, do

649
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: you have any family traditions?

650
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 3: Uh?

651
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 2: At my grandpa, we spent Christmas Eve at my dad's parents' house,

652
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 2: and we also would open a gift and it was

653
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: the gift from Santa. Santa came to my grandparents' house.

654
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 2: We had I had like sixteen first cousins, and we'd

655
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 2: all be together on Christmas Eve and Santa and his

656
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: elve who is one of his sons, would come to

657
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 2: the house and we would sit on Santa's lap and

658
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 2: actually make an appearance, like you would, actually wow, make

659
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 2: an appearance.

660
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: And he was good.

661
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 2: He knew all of our Namesta and I know he

662
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 2: is Santa and he's great, and he would always know

663
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 2: what we were up to and what we had done

664
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 2: that year, and so all of us would go up

665
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 2: there and have a full conversation.

666
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: He'd say, so, how's it going. You're still working on

667
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: your TV show? Huh? And like, you know, to my

668
00:29:59,120 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: siblings or.

669
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 5: My you're still sitting on this man's lap when you

670
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 5: were like fifteen and sixteen years old.

671
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, in my twenties. Yeah, oh promise second child.

672
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 2: Oh yes, oh no, grandchildren are this year. Our children

673
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 2: also saw the Santa. Yes, okay, yes, yes. At a

674
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 2: certain point we did say I will just sit next

675
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 2: to you, Santa, I hope.

676
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: So that's a conversation that eventually needs to be had.

677
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but anyway, moving right along, Eric continues his rant.

678
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 2: Today she takes over Christmas tomorrow. It's the rest of

679
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: your life. Goodbye, Corey Matthews. Hello, whatever your teppanga name is?

680
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 2: Corey asks who cares when they open presents and his

681
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 2: topanga name is Captain take me shopping?

682
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 5: What it's just that's that's a two am joke that

683
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 5: they never just that's a filler joke.

684
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: They could not sign up. Kanda loves to shop. Apparently

685
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: he just takes it, which she doesn't.

686
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 4: I'm so at the mall know, okay.

687
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 2: Eric explains that this is about the power struggle between

688
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,239
Speaker 2: man and woman since the creation of man over three

689
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 2: hundred years ago. Tapega interrupts, wait till you guys see

690
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 2: what I have to put on top of that tree,

691
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 2: and she runs upstairs. Eric calls for another conference and

692
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 2: asks why he's letting Tapanga walk all over him. Corey

693
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: and says he isn't and he's going to prove it

694
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 2: by putting the family cardboard noodle star on top of

695
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: the tree instead of whatever Tapanga is bringing down. Just then,

696
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 2: Tapanga's back now with an angel behind her back. She

697
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: kisses Corey and Eric purrs. Corey insists that Eric guessed

698
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 2: it was just a guess. Tapega shows the boys her

699
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 2: traditional angel for the top of the tree, and Corey stutters, Topanga,

700
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: I have something to say to you. She jumps in,

701
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 2: let me guess you love the angel and proceeds to

702
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 2: kiss his face. Corey is beensource old. I guess and

703
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 2: agrees I love the angel. He turns to Eric. I

704
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 2: have failed. Eric decides to say something to Tapanga. So

705
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: about you spending Christmas with us the Matthews. I have

706
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 2: a problem, Topanga guesses if this is about the spending

707
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 2: limit on presence. I am sorry. I just saw something

708
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 2: that was so air and I had to get it.

709
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 2: Eric and Soorceld with money huts her.

710
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: I love you. Welcome to our family.

711
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 5: This is the most we've worked together since like season one,

712
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 5: I know, absolutely, yeah by far.

713
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: Also, I'm now just realizing was Morgan in this episode?

714
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: Was she even there? I can't remember.

715
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's at the end, Yeah, she's.

716
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: On the she's sleeping. Yeah, she's sleeping on the couch.

717
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: Literally couldn't remember. Okay, I know.

718
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 2: Then mister Feenie appears through the kitchen door. Greetings of

719
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 2: the season. It's Christmas Carol time. Ooh, Tapanga loves a

720
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 2: Christmas Carol. See now this is when I was confused.

721
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 2: Shouldn't he be reading the Christmas Carol on Christmas Eve?

722
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 4: So this is the twenty third right now?

723
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: I think it's the twenty third. Hmm yeah, okay, okay.

724
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,719
Speaker 1: So he reads it really slowly and takes all night.

725
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: It takes all night? Can possibly happen? Oh? All the parts?

726
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 2: So I know that's true. Tapega loves a Christmas Carol.

727
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 2: Corey explains every year, mister Feenie come over and reads

728
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 2: it to us. We never ask him to, he just does.

729
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 2: Phoenie shouts tradition. Topeka has an idea, you know what

730
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 2: might be fun. Phoene repeats tradition to Panga is unfazed.

731
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: What if instead of you just reading the story, we

732
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: all took parts and acted them out. A disturbed Phoene

733
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: slams his bookshot. Phoene asks Corey, did someone have complaints

734
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 2: with how I read this last year? Because if I

735
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 2: was a little slow, I could always pick up the

736
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: pace to Panga butts In Morgan would have a blast

737
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 2: playing tiny kit.

738
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 4: Cutting meta joke, pick up the bass number one note

739
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 4: that we always got.

740
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 3: Keep moving, keep.

741
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: Moving, You're right I didn't even think of that, but absolutely.

742
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 4: It's like the classic actor note that we would get

743
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 4: all the time. So the fact that he goes there is.

744
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 5: Perfect also just he saves every scene. He saves every

745
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 5: scene the second Bill comes on, I'm fine with whatever.

746
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 4: Happens, yep.

747
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: And it's amazing.

748
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 5: It's such the power of an actor like of that caliber,

749
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 5: where the second he pops on, I'm like, okay, what

750
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 5: what do you Where do you want me to go?

751
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: I'm good, yep. It is true.

752
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 2: Morgan would have a blast playing Tiny Tim. I'm going

753
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 2: to go tell her Astapanga runs off again. Phoene protests,

754
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: but I'm Tiny Tim and Scrooge and all of that

755
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 2: and all of them. Corey apologizes to Panga, likes things

756
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 2: done her own way.

757
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 3: It's just what I did.

758
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 4: Get to see Patrick Stewart do his one man Christmas Carol. Oh.

759
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 4: I've heard about this legendary yeah, way back in like

760
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 4: the late eighties, early nineties, and I got to see

761
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 4: him in the mid nineties when my brother was like

762
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 4: a huge Treky fan and he was doing a tour

763
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 4: of the Christmas Carol and I went and saw it.

764
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 4: It was fantastic because you know, he's one of those

765
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 4: great actors. But he also, like Bill, just has the

766
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 4: perfect voice to narrate and he does it. But he did,

767
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 4: he acted out every character on stage and he tells

768
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 4: the whole Christmas Carrol is wonderful, so good. I wonder

769
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 4: if he still does it anymore. You know, it was

770
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 4: one of those likes in his repertoire. Patrick Stewart would

771
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 4: do it every couple of years.

772
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 1: So cool.

773
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 2: Anyway, it's not my whole life, it's just Christmas. And

774
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 2: every morning when she tells me what to wear, Phoeney

775
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 2: does admit nice shirt, Old Tapanga gone and just type

776
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 2: a control freak.

777
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: Topanga has entered the chat.

778
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 5: Well, because when you're a girl, you can be any

779
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 5: kind of girl. When you're a woman, you're a specific

780
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 5: kind of woman on this show.

781
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: Right, that's true, that's true.

782
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 2: We get a little Christmas jingle and transition to Eric,

783
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 2: Jack and Shawn's apartment. Jack and Sewn are setting up

784
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 2: a miniature aluminum Christmas tree. Is the aluminum tree the

785
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 2: National Tree of Philadelphia or see that makes more sense.

786
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 2: The guys having an aluminum tree. That's like my brothers

787
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 2: and I having a lumin tree. It's like that size.

788
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 2: It's easy. You stick the things in Christmas done that

789
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 2: made sense?

790
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 5: The big full size like twelve foot aluminum tree.

791
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 7: Who does that?

792
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: Yeah?

793
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: Sean asks Jack how he usually celebrates the holiday, and

794
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 2: Jack says they used to go to Veldscer and ski

795
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 2: the French Alps. He asks what Sean usually does. Well,

796
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 2: those of us in the trailer park just like to

797
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 2: thank God for all that we have.

798
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: Jack shrugs. Great line. We pray on the plane, we

799
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 1: play on the plane. I like you didn't like you

800
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 1: didn't like this kind of small bet story.

801
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 5: I like that they're trying to get you guys to

802
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:07,720
Speaker 5: have something at least.

803
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 3: Yeah.

804
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 4: No, I think I just think that I don't feel

805
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 4: great about the performance. It's fine, you know, it's just

806
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 4: like I said, it's a slight little but like in

807
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 4: this scene, you know, I just I just really I

808
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 4: I have really bad vocal energy. Like I've just clearly

809
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 4: thought that being natural and uh you know, naturalistic as

810
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 4: an actor meant that I swallowed so many of my words.

811
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 4: So like in this scene, I was like, writer, speak up,

812
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 4: like just say what you're saying, like, deliver the lines

813
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 4: and clearly I'm just like, I'm just like swallowing everything.

814
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 4: And I think it was because I thought I wanted

815
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 4: to like really feel it or really you know, act it,

816
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 4: and it's like, no, it's a sitcom, dude, just like

817
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 4: deliver the lines like make sure we can hear you.

818
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 4: So that's all I could think of when I was

819
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,439
Speaker 4: watching this scene, I was like, solo energy, like and

820
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 4: and and I just think that because of that, Matt

821
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 4: doesn't really have a lot of energy. We're like we're

822
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 4: not going at each other with enough clarity and specificity.

823
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 4: So it felt muddled here later, like when we, like

824
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 4: I said, when we have the like ice skating thing

825
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 4: at the end, it's like it picks up back, and

826
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 4: I just wanted to like up the energy.

827
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 3: It just felt I think it.

828
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 5: I think in this say in this case though, especially

829
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 5: for the first one, it worked because you both look

830
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 5: really uncomfortable.

831
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're supposed to.

832
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 4: It's like, I know, but there's there's discomfort that's funny,

833
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 4: and then there's this comfort that maybe is too real

834
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 4: or you know, a little too real. It was like, yeah,

835
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 4: don't just play like even at the end, I think

836
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 4: I'm not sure what the last line of the scene

837
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 4: is but it felt like whereas it could have been.

838
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 3: Like what do we do? I think it's like what

839
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 3: do we do now?

840
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,919
Speaker 4: And it's like we're and I was like, let's hold

841
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 4: that tension, like yeah, you know, and like it could

842
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 4: have been funnier. It's just like we needed we need

843
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 4: a little of that will for illness, you know, like

844
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,760
Speaker 4: you know somebody who's just like, let's make this fun.

845
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 2: I think I do think, knowing how chat was, I

846
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 2: think Sean could have been very into Christmas and there

847
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 2: was some weird trail trailer Christmas things that Sean could

848
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 2: be like, come on, don't you do this?

849
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 1: And then when you.

850
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 2: Know, he's like, well we we went skiing in the Alps.

851
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 2: Sean would be like, oh, like I just.

852
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna be just like, thank god all we have.

853
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 2: If there could have been some really fun chet Christmas

854
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 2: y thing, got to.

855
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 8: Color, Yeah, that could have been funny. That would have

856
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 8: been funny.

857
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 2: So then they focus back on the mini tree and

858
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 2: Sean says to brothers, nothing in common. Jack agrees, so

859
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 2: how should we celebrate Christmas? Sean tells them it doesn't

860
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 2: matter what they do, as long as they do it together.

861
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: Jack asks again, so what do we do?

862
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: Seawn answers.

863
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 2: When I was a kid, I always wondered what it'd

864
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 2: be like to celebrate Christmas with my brother. Now I'm

865
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 2: going to get that chance. This is going to be

866
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 2: the best Christmas ever. Jack smiles back, so what do

867
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 2: you want to do? And then we're at the Matthew's house.

868
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 2: We're in the hallway. To Panga, in her winter nightgown,

869
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 2: knocks on Corey's door. Corey opens it in a surprise

870
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 2: to see her. To Panga, you frisky little girl, come in,

871
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 2: she says, She rings your with you. I know nothing

872
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 2: fancy about God, my God. Corey thinks a nice little

873
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 2: snuggle would help. Come on in to Pega reiterates that

874
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 2: she's not there to come in. So Corey asks, then,

875
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 2: why did you wake me up? She wants to know

876
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 2: what he was doing. Corey asks, at three o'clock in

877
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 2: the morning, I'm usually sleeping and dreaming, and in my

878
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 2: dream I said come in, and you did. To Panga wonders,

879
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 2: don't you ever wake up in the middle of the night,

880
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 2: Corey says not once. Ever, why she says, to think

881
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 2: about things like I know that Eric likes his eggnog,

882
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 2: and your father loves his aluminum tree. And I know

883
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 2: you understand that I have my traditions too, and you're

884
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,399
Speaker 2: okay with that, aren't you. Corey nods, yeah, I mean,

885
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 2: we all have our own traditions. In fact, one of

886
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 2: my favorites is sleeping when it's dark. Topega continues, because

887
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 2: we're not the same people, and sometimes the way that

888
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 2: I would do things is totally different than the way

889
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 2: that you would do things. Corey knows that Topek is

890
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 2: happy to hear this. It's good to know that for

891
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 2: the rest of our lives, you'll get up with me

892
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 2: at three o'clock in the morning to talk about things.

893
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 2: Corey smile fades quickly as to Panga kisses him and

894
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 2: says good night. Corey stands in the hallway. Now he's

895
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 2: wide awake. Then we're in the Matthews living room and

896
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 2: now wandering. Corey sees his dad sitting on the couch

897
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,399
Speaker 2: and asks what he's doing up. Alan tells him he's

898
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 2: always awake at this time. Where's the midnight pie and

899
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 2: at least a shady melon something something?

900
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 1: I mean, something something hamlet esque.

901
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Alan explains, every night I just wish I could

902
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 2: make it to the morning without the.

903
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: Tap tap tap.

904
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 2: Alan, are you up? Alan responds, yes, Pumpkin and Amy

905
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 2: will say the dreaded words, let's talk. Amy will talk

906
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,800
Speaker 2: until she falls asleep. Then Alan makes models. He shows

907
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 2: off his newest airplane to Corey zoom and asks Cory

908
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 2: why he's up. It's tapanga. She likes to get up at.

909
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: Three in the morning.

910
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 2: She's been here for eight hours and I'm just now

911
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 2: finding out all these new things about her, Alan wonders,

912
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 2: And that's bad. Corey shakes his head.

913
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

914
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 2: I mean I always thought we were so much alike,

915
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 2: and I thought that's why we get along so well.

916
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 2: Alan puts it together so right when you get to

917
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 2: the point where you think she's you, you realize she's her.

918
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 2: Corey asks what he should do. Alan pulls out a

919
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 2: model airplane kit. I've been saving one of these for

920
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 2: each of my sons. He hands it to Corey and whispers.

921
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 4: Enjoy, welcome to being a man.

922
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,439
Speaker 5: Yes, is this also we're supposed to supposed to kind

923
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 5: of believe that this is every night? Because doesn't he say,

924
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 5: like until that time, what like the man hasn't slept

925
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 5: through the night because she wakes him up every single night.

926
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 2: He said, just every night. I just hope I can

927
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 2: make it through the night, but it never happens.

928
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 1: That's that's not a normal thing. That's she needs serious

929
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: series help, some real help. Yeah.

930
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:08,839
Speaker 2: Also, Corey hasn't realized that Tapanga is different from him

931
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 2: in all these years of them being together and all

932
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 2: the episodes we've done where he says, I was just

933
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 2: doing this because I thought it's what you wanted. There

934
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 2: have been so many times he's done the wrong thing

935
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 2: thinking it was what it was that she wanted, which

936
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 2: wouldn't have been what he wanted. So you know, this

937
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 2: scene does for me really stand out as being like

938
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 2: the poop the poopy scene in the show. Yeah, I

939
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 2: just this scene I think is kind of poopy, and

940
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 2: I know I don't love it.

941
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 4: Does Boy Meets World in all seven years ever pass

942
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 4: the Bechdel test? Do you guys know the Bechdel test.

943
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: Nice is a woman who doesn't have.

944
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 4: So it's it's this very famous thing that Alison Bechdell,

945
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 4: who's the great graphic novelist and writer, came up with

946
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 4: in like the mid eighties, which is a test that

947
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 4: you can sort of put on to move. She she

948
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 4: brought it up to movies, but it's there's only three rules.

949
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 3: Are there?

950
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 4: Is there more than one woman that has a name?

951
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: Yeah?

952
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 4: Did do do women talk to each other alone in

953
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 4: a scene at any point? And three do they talk

954
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 4: about something other than a man? And I you know,

955
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:25,399
Speaker 4: not a lot.

956
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: The first two definitely the.

957
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 4: World two women who talk to each other about something

958
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:32,879
Speaker 4: other than a man.

959
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:37,399
Speaker 2: Tey and Topanga are talking about Corey, Yeah, and.

960
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 1: Are talking about Corey and Sean.

961
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 2: Amy and Topanga are talking about Corey or or Alan.

962
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 5: I'm hoping maybe during the war, I mean in what capacity,

963
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 5: because they could be talking about other characters but not

964
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 5: talking about a man. If it's like the war episode

965
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 5: where they're like, we've got to get them back, they're

966
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 5: talking about male care aracters, but it's not like what

967
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 5: about your man?

968
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 4: But well, the male characters are the whole focus then,

969
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 4: and that kid, like, the idea is that do they

970
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 4: talk about do they have an independent existence where they

971
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 4: talk about things other than the male characters on the

972
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 4: show right or on the in the movie. And the

973
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 4: reality is most of the times when shows were written

974
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 4: in the eighties, nineties.

975
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 3: Even up till today.

976
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: They don't they just right.

977
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 5: I mean again, it's a male point of view show.

978
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm curious.

979
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 3: It's just something occurred to me watching this episode.

980
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, this is a Yeah, I don't

981
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:35,919
Speaker 4: know in all seven years if that, and I don't

982
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 4: think it's happened yet. I don't think we've had any

983
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 4: two female characters with names talking about some other subject anything.

984
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 5: Yes, well, yes, yes it is if you count something

985
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 5: like Amy and Morgan having a conversation about a Barbie

986
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 5: doll and.

987
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 3: With just the two of them.

988
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, he puts them on the micro he's in

989
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 1: the kitchen.

990
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 5: They've had different conversations, you know, the two the to

991
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 5: Amy and Morgan talking about stealing the necklace from from

992
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 5: the girl. And then the other woman comes and shows up.

993
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 5: So it has happened, but it's slight.

994
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, that was actually a great when the

995
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 4: woman she had her So yeah, their.

996
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 3: Friend came and they Amy had the confidence.

997
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: You're right, that was four women.

998
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 4: Okay, we passed the Bechdel test in season one barely.

999
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 2: But yes, yes, So then we're in the Matthew's kitchen.

1000
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 2: It's Christmas Eve, morning. Tapanga is making pancakes that are

1001
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,320
Speaker 2: shaped as Christmas trees. When Corey walks downstairs, she happily

1002
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 2: greets him. Merry Christmas Eve, mornings leap ahead. Corey hesitantly

1003
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 2: wishes her a good morning. Tapanga brings him a plate

1004
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:42,399
Speaker 2: she made her traditional Christmas Eve morning breakfast. Corey thanks her,

1005
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 2: then grabs the syrup to Pega yanks it back. No,

1006
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 2: no syrup, which what why didn't she was someone who

1007
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 2: asked for it?

1008
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:50,720
Speaker 1: She wanted the syrup.

1009
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:52,839
Speaker 5: Also missed a huge joke. He should have walked down

1010
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,840
Speaker 5: the stairs and handed her a model that was finished.

1011
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 5: He should have handed her a plane Merry Christmas like

1012
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,080
Speaker 5: it would have just never mentioned, never mention.

1013
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,320
Speaker 1: Just like looking at a perfectly okay and then putting

1014
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 1: it down. Miss a huge joke. But yeah, I thought

1015
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 1: the same thing. It's like, you want to know you

1016
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: asked for their pancakes exactly.

1017
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 2: Corey reminds her they drove all the weight to Vermont

1018
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 2: for it to Panka explains, these trees get snow. She

1019
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 2: grabs the powdered sugar and begins to sprinkle it on

1020
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 2: the pancakes while singing jingle bells like a psychopath. Corey

1021
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 2: watches in horror. I'm not really that hungry. I think

1022
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the garbage cans out front. To Panka

1023
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: reminds him there's no collection on Christmas eve Day, Corey

1024
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 2: says he was just in a hang out there.

1025
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 3: Why who says that.

1026
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 1: Morning?

1027
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 5: I want a new merch shirt? Happy Christmas eve Day?

1028
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,720
Speaker 5: I want that shirt.

1029
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 2: Corey says he was just gonna hang out there till

1030
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 2: the fourth of January. To Panga mutters, somebody got up

1031
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 2: on the wrong side of the bed. She hands him

1032
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 2: a glass of orange juice to wake him up. Corey

1033
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 2: takes a sip. Ah, this is an orange juice. To

1034
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,439
Speaker 2: Panka says, she squeezed in some grapefruit.

1035
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,359
Speaker 4: Ok, back to the T shirt. The merch that we're

1036
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 4: gonna make. Is it a model airplane?

1037
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 3: Is that the image?

1038
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 5: Or it's aluminum tree pancake with model airplanes hanging out?

1039
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas eve Day, Merry Christmas eve Day?

1040
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 3: All right, it's get a design going.

1041
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 2: Corey yells, why orange juice on its own is very delightful.

1042
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 2: To Pega notices he's tense, and she suggests they go

1043
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 2: for a walk on the way, by.

1044
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 5: The way, for the record, you're really playing it fast

1045
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 5: and loose there, because if Corey was on any sort

1046
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 5: of antidepressant and or cholesterol medication, you're not supposed to

1047
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 5: have grape fruit of any kind. So I mean, you

1048
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 5: could really Topanga could really have been messing with his

1049
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 5: lippatour or crestore. Yeah, what happens grapefruit for certain medications.

1050
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 5: Grapefruit enhances their like it pumps up their effectiveness. So

1051
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,280
Speaker 5: it's like you're taking a certain amount of like lipitur,

1052
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 5: and you have grapefruit. It makes it even more potent.

1053
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 2: I think knew that her, her seventeen year old boyfriend,

1054
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:02,320
Speaker 2: wasn't on lippatour.

1055
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,840
Speaker 5: If there's ever a seventeen year old who was on lippatour,

1056
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 5: it was Corey Matthews.

1057
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 2: Okay, she says that on the way, she'll show him

1058
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 2: the root they'll take for caroling. Corey reminds her he

1059
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,280
Speaker 2: can't sing. I don't like to sing. I get embarrassed

1060
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 2: when I sing. She shocked, it's just singing. Corey shakes

1061
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,480
Speaker 2: his head. It's not just singing. I like opening presents

1062
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 2: on Christmas morning. I miss our aluminum tree. You're right.

1063
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 2: We're two different people and we're not going to change that.

1064
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 2: He walks away, and she watches him leave with some

1065
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 2: mule Tide sadness, and then we're in the guy's apartment.

1066
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 2: Corey is confiding in Sean and Jack Boy, when you're

1067
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 2: with someone for thirty two years, you think you know them,

1068
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 2: funny Sean. Sean can't believe he walked out on her

1069
00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 2: on Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve Day knows.

1070
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 5: What.

1071
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,320
Speaker 2: He encourages him to go back, but Corey refuses. Sean

1072
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 2: tells Jack he doesn't realize how lucky he is to

1073
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 2: have a girl like to Panga. Jack shug shrugs. I

1074
00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 2: don't really know her.

1075
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 3: I really know this is a great on her.

1076
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 2: I don't know so funny. I loved all this, Corey says.

1077
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 2: I was going to give her this ring that meant

1078
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 2: we were going to be together forever. But then I

1079
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 2: started learning all these new things about her. What kind

1080
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 2: of human being puts grapefruit juice and orange juice? I

1081
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 2: just remembered now that I did remember a part of

1082
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 2: this episode, and it was kissing Matt.

1083
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 1: But you don't kiss Matt. She could do hug.

1084
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 4: No, she kisses him too, did the hug first. I

1085
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 4: was like, yeah, like, oh, I do remember that happy

1086
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 4: kissing Matt, weren't you?

1087
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this is right around the time we

1088
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 2: had started seeing each.

1089
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,959
Speaker 1: Other, which of course none of us knew about. Yeah,

1090
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 1: we kept it very secret, but I'm pretty sure.

1091
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 4: Really I thought maybe that was why they wrote it

1092
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 4: into the show that you married Jack, is because the

1093
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:49,439
Speaker 4: writers were picking up.

1094
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,359
Speaker 1: On they may they may have picked up on it.

1095
00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 1: They may have picked up on it.

1096
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 2: I mean, I think I think David Combs knew, you know,

1097
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:57,840
Speaker 2: Wesley Staples knew they had that.

1098
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,359
Speaker 1: Couldn't keep a secret from them. They need everything about

1099
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,240
Speaker 1: my life. I was so oblivious to that stuff.

1100
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 5: I found out like a month ago, Like when you

1101
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 5: told us on the show, I was like, wait, what.

1102
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. We kept it. We kept it very tough. Yeah,

1103
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: we kept it very quiet.

1104
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 2: Corey says, I was going to give her this ring

1105
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 2: that meant we were going to be together forever. But

1106
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:16,839
Speaker 2: then I started learning all these new things about her.

1107
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,280
Speaker 2: What kind of human being puts grapefruit juice and orange juice?

1108
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 2: Sean responds, I am but a simple idiot. But the

1109
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 2: one thing I do know is that you and Topanga

1110
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,360
Speaker 2: are just like grapefruit juice and orange juice. You shouldn't

1111
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 2: be together, yet somehow you are.

1112
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 5: And you and there's a couple times where you and

1113
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 5: Ben are right on the verge of laughter in this

1114
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 5: episode really, yeah, absolutely, couple of times. Yeah, and then

1115
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,799
Speaker 5: turns it into laughing. And then when you're on your side,

1116
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 5: you've got your smile going that you can tell you're

1117
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 5: about to break And if you just stare at Ben,

1118
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 5: Ben is like clearly just laughing.

1119
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: Yes, this is also.

1120
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 2: The first time anyone has ever said anything other than

1121
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 2: you and Topanga were meant for each other. Now, all

1122
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:00,839
Speaker 2: of a sudden, we're two people who aren't supposed to be.

1123
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,399
Speaker 5: Together bar cross sers. Yeah, all of a sudden, Yeah,

1124
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 5: it doesn't make any sense.

1125
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 4: Yes, whatever logic fits the scene.

1126
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1127
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 2: And then Jack chimes in, you know, I'm sure I'll

1128
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 2: get to know her, and if I don't, I don't, well,

1129
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:18,359
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas everyone, and that he turns and walks out

1130
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 2: of the apartment.

1131
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: The best way to have a character leave be there

1132
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 1: for no reason. You don't really know her. I'll get

1133
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 1: to know her, I won't, all right, Christmas.

1134
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 4: I just love that he like keeps he's still on

1135
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 4: it like well this walks.

1136
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 1: Like, well, all right, Merry Christmas. Ever, it was great.

1137
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 2: Corey stares at the ring. I thought to Pega and

1138
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,120
Speaker 2: I were exactly alike, but we're not. I guess it's

1139
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 2: better I found this out now. Sean tells Corey that

1140
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,680
Speaker 2: he is nothing in common with his new brother Jack,

1141
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,839
Speaker 2: but they're spending this Christmas together trying to find one similarity.

1142
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 2: Then Jack walks back in. He's followed by Tapanga. Some

1143
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:51,920
Speaker 2: girls here to see you. Cory takes a seat and

1144
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 2: to Panga gestures for to give them some privacy. Tapanga

1145
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 2: gently explains, I know you're upset with me. I'm sorry.

1146
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 2: I love you, and if you never want to go

1147
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:02,799
Speaker 2: caroling with me, you don't have to. I'm sorry that

1148
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 2: my family's traditions are different from your family's. I'll just

1149
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:07,360
Speaker 2: be waiting for you back at your house whenever you

1150
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 2: want to come home. She opens the door to reveal

1151
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 2: Jack standing their ear pressed against the door, and leaves.

1152
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 2: Sean tells Corey to go after her. It's Christmas. Corey

1153
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 2: is stressed, No, I need to think if Tapanga won't

1154
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 2: let me fall asleep to Feenie reading a Christmas Carol.

1155
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,240
Speaker 2: I'm going to fall asleep watching it on TV. Sean's

1156
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 2: heard enough, Okay, do whatever you want, but I'm going

1157
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 2: ice skating. Jack stops him. You like ice skating. I

1158
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 2: love ice skating. Sean gasps, you're kidding. They finally found

1159
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 2: something in common. They feverishly shake hands while Corey watches on, depressed,

1160
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 2: Sean grabbing the leather jacket to players, I love the

1161
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 2: way that.

1162
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 4: We actually go to shake hands because it's like kind

1163
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 4: of awkward. It's like, yeah, are we hugging Shad, and

1164
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,800
Speaker 4: it's like it feels so natural.

1165
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 3: We're like, yeah, I do have something.

1166
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 4: It was like, and then we're suddenly shaking hands, like ah, yeah,

1167
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 4: I love this one.

1168
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,719
Speaker 2: It's very cute. You grab the leather jacket, declaring they're

1169
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 2: starting their own tradition. Every Christmas they'll go ice skating.

1170
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,240
Speaker 2: Jack adds, I especially like going ice skating in France.

1171
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,759
Speaker 1: Sean mutters, don't kill this, don't kill this.

1172
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 4: Update on the food picture, Yep, yeah, it was a

1173
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 4: hot dot.

1174
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:18,400
Speaker 1: Hot dog and mustard and pausing it and trying.

1175
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 3: To crass the seal.

1176
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 1: Yep, that's a hot dog now.

1177
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,759
Speaker 2: So funny, and then we fade to later in the

1178
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 2: guy's apartment, Cory is sleeping on the couch as a

1179
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 2: Christmas carol plays on the TV. All of a sudden,

1180
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 2: Foene appears. He's dressed in a top hat and a

1181
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 2: long coat. I am the ghost of Christmas Future. Corey

1182
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,800
Speaker 2: points out, no, you're the doorman at the Plaza Hotel.

1183
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,399
Speaker 2: Ghost Feenie tells Corey that he is here to show

1184
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 2: Corey what will become of him if he sticks to

1185
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:47,439
Speaker 2: the path he's chosen. Corey quickly answers, I don't want

1186
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,279
Speaker 2: to play. Then Ghost Poenie snaps his fingers and they're

1187
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 2: magically in the future. Still at the apartment, Eric walks

1188
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 2: in the front door, dressed in a Santa hat, looking

1189
00:53:56,239 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 2: very uncheery. Also, this is where I noticed the picture

1190
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 2: of the hot dog with the muzard above the above

1191
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 2: the sink. Corey is happy to see Eric. That means

1192
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 2: everything's the same. Corey waves hey, bro, but the ghost

1193
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 2: reminds Corey that no one can see or hear him.

1194
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 2: Eric takes off his Santa hat and reveals a massive

1195
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 2: comb over.

1196
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 1: It was so much fun to do.

1197
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 5: This actually led to us rider in our video was

1198
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 5: because our makeup artist Fiona did this for me.

1199
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: Yeah right, and it.

1200
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:29,319
Speaker 4: Looked so good and so real, and then we did it.

1201
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1202
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 4: So when we did our mockumentary, like when the show

1203
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 4: was ending, we said, oh, it's ten years in the future.

1204
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 3: Where are they now?

1205
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 4: Boy Mets World, and Will and I are directing this

1206
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 4: this documentary.

1207
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 3: We had you in a full comb over.

1208
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 4: So we did like four hours of makeup for our

1209
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,839
Speaker 4: little oh my God video and it looked so good.

1210
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: It did full combover. You had the giant the wig on,

1211
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: and I had the home over.

1212
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 4: Dreads because you could see, like was so fun because

1213
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:00,040
Speaker 4: it looked so good and it was so fun and

1214
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 4: you're like, yeah, let's do that.

1215
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:05,280
Speaker 2: That is hilarious. It looked really good. So Corey laughs,

1216
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:08,760
Speaker 2: Look who lost his looks on? Cue Eric yells for Corey.

1217
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: I'm home.

1218
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 2: He's got his eggnog aluminum tree and he had his

1219
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,759
Speaker 2: pants let out. Corey wonders why he needed his pants

1220
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 2: let out, and then grown up Corey appears, who looks shlumpy.

1221
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:24,759
Speaker 2: Corey stares in awe, oh I'm a big boy. Phoene explains,

1222
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 2: once you look at once you took Topanga out of

1223
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,360
Speaker 2: your life. You took comfort and food, not just any food.

1224
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:34,799
Speaker 2: For some inexplicable reason, you only eat one thing Eric

1225
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 2: Hans Christmas tree pancakes to future Corey and sprinkles powdered

1226
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:41,359
Speaker 2: sugar on top, just liked Panga did. Apparently, he eats

1227
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 2: this for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and at three o'clock in

1228
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:48,239
Speaker 2: the morning, Corey is shocked by his future. He wants

1229
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 2: to see how horrible and miserable to Panga ended up

1230
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 2: without him. The ghost assures him he does not want

1231
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,720
Speaker 2: to see that, but Corey insists Ghost phoene show him.

1232
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 2: Phoeney ghost raises his arms and transport them to another

1233
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,400
Speaker 2: house with a whimsical sound and effect to boot and

1234
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 2: now we are in Topanga's future house. She looks the

1235
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 2: exact same, and she's sitting in a beautiful home filled

1236
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 2: with Christmas decorations, and Corey assumes she must be alone.

1237
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 2: That's what happens when you have to have everything your way.

1238
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 2: Then on cue Jack appears. Corey thinks it's some guy

1239
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,400
Speaker 2: delivering wood for the fireplace and she has no husband

1240
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 2: to chop it for her, But then he realizes who

1241
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,839
Speaker 2: it is. Jack smiles at to Panga, I don't really

1242
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 2: know you too well, but thanks for marrying me, for

1243
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 2: marrying me, Corey scoffs, well, obviously it's a loveless marriage.

1244
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 1: And on Q, three kids excitedly run into the room

1245
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 1: dressed in Christmas pet the camera.

1246
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 3: But it's cute, it's able.

1247
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,239
Speaker 1: It looks like the von Trapp kids coming down.

1248
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 2: And I didn't know if that was an honest mistake

1249
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,320
Speaker 2: that he like or if it was something scripted.

1250
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 4: I don't.

1251
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,719
Speaker 2: Be in my I love it so, Corey whimpers, those

1252
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:06,359
Speaker 2: are supposed to be my kids. Tapega announces it's Christmas Eve,

1253
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 2: time to open presents. Corey judges her, You see that

1254
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 2: everything has to be her own way. Phoene points to

1255
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 2: the tree. It's aluminum. Corey is confused to Pega would

1256
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 2: never have an aluminum tree. How did Jack get her

1257
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,200
Speaker 2: to agree to that, Phoenie answers, Perhaps he never ran

1258
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 2: out of the house like a coward. Perhaps he realized

1259
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 2: the spirit of love brings compromise, that when two people

1260
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 2: who grow together, they start their own traditions.

1261
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:33,760
Speaker 5: Corey, I'm sorry because this to me, I loved the

1262
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 5: twas an eight before or not twas a night before Christmas?

1263
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 5: I love the entire Christmas Carol stuff that we're doing.

1264
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 5: How do you leave Christmas past on the table?

1265
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:44,120
Speaker 1: How do you not?

1266
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 5: How is the episode not going backwards and showing Corey

1267
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,240
Speaker 5: and to Panga as kids having something with Christmas and

1268
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 5: then presently having something with Christmas and then future Christmas.

1269
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: How do you not do that for the episode?

1270
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 4: You don't have time, right, but I guess if you

1271
00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,240
Speaker 4: set it up whole episode. She started with the with

1272
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 4: Christmas Carol, the whole Christmas Carol, Yes, exactly, the cold

1273
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:05,720
Speaker 4: half of the cold Oh you do a longer cold open?

1274
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:07,160
Speaker 5: Half of the cold open is setting up that they

1275
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,880
Speaker 5: have differences. He falls asleep that night, Phoene shows up

1276
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 5: in his bed act when Sena, You're in like.

1277
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,200
Speaker 1: How how do you not do that?

1278
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 5: With the second this started, I was like, oh my god,

1279
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 5: we're like twenty book seventeen minutes into.

1280
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 1: The episode and now we're going to do Christmas Carol.

1281
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: I mean it was ugh. I thought that was again.

1282
00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 5: I didn't dislike it, but I thought we missed some

1283
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:26,959
Speaker 5: serious comedy there with.

1284
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,959
Speaker 1: Little Corey and Tapanga getting you know what kind of gift.

1285
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 5: This four year old Topanga five year old to Panga,

1286
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 5: get Corey and what are their parents?

1287
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 3: There?

1288
00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 8: Is it?

1289
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 1: Eggnog? I mean there's so much you could have done. Yeah,

1290
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 1: so cute.

1291
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:42,280
Speaker 2: Corey asks, you know everything, don't you? He shakes his head. No,

1292
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 2: mister Matthews, this is your dream. I'm merely in it.

1293
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:48,440
Speaker 2: Corey tries to plead with Tapanga. He's sorry, He'll do

1294
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 2: Christmas her way. Phoene reminds him that Topanga can't hear him.

1295
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 2: Corey leans down and tells her he loves her. Tapega

1296
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 2: is reading a card and says, I love you too, Jack.

1297
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:00,200
Speaker 2: She stands up and gives her future husband and a

1298
00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 2: kiss and a big hug. Corey is now outside watching

1299
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 2: from the window. He stares at the couple in utter disbelief,

1300
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 2: leaving his cold breath on the glass.

1301
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,760
Speaker 1: Ghost Feoeni ushers him away. They need to go.

1302
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 2: And now in current day, the Matthews kitchen to Panga

1303
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 2: is sadly staring out the window watching the snowfall. Amy

1304
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,240
Speaker 2: breaks the silence. I really thought Corey would be back

1305
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 2: by now. To Pega groans, this is all my fault.

1306
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,240
Speaker 2: Eric walks by with the cartoonish Hello Hello?

1307
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 4: Was that a reference? When you said that, I was like, oh, yeah,

1308
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:44,120
Speaker 4: that's that's a reference to something. Are you doing a

1309
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 4: voice from something?

1310
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 3: Hello?

1311
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 4: Hello?

1312
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:50,720
Speaker 1: It's probably something Jim Carrey. He also sounds something like

1313
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 1: south Park, south Park A little bit.

1314
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 3: Or thought it was.

1315
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,720
Speaker 4: I thought it was a very specific way to say

1316
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 4: and I can't remember just used.

1317
00:59:57,680 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 3: To do it.

1318
00:59:58,360 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 4: But when you said it, I was like, I remember

1319
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 4: that hello, and I.

1320
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Remember from something. It's like Steve Martin or somebody. Is

1321
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: it hello? Yeah, I can't remember. Somebody will write us

1322
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 1: and let us know what it was.

1323
01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 3: But it's funny that you don't even remember.

1324
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 4: We don't.

1325
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 1: I don't remember who I stole that from, but I'm

1326
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 1: sure it's from someone.

1327
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 2: To Penga continues, if I would have never come here,

1328
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 2: Corey would have never run away. I've ruined your Christmas.

1329
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:20,800
Speaker 2: I just wanted so much to be a part of

1330
01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,600
Speaker 2: your family. I never wanted to push Corey away. Amy

1331
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 2: gives to Panga a kiss kiss on the cheek before

1332
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 2: she leaves. Now alone to Pega sulks at the kitchen table.

1333
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:32,720
Speaker 2: Then we hear a voice softly singing the first noel

1334
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 2: to Panga turns to see Corey standing at the door caroling.

1335
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: I know it was so quiet and quick. I mean,

1336
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 1: it was just over and that writer. You're right. I

1337
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 1: remember this being a.

1338
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 2: Massive It may have been bigger in the beginning of

1339
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 2: the week, and because Ben was stressed about it, it

1340
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 2: may have become shorter and shorter.

1341
01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just it grew huge in my mind where

1342
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 1: oh my god, it was.

1343
01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 3: I thought the audience went crazy. This foor open.

1344
01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 4: The whole family was there and Ben delivered Noel and

1345
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:03,600
Speaker 4: it was like, oh.

1346
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we had to teach him the words. He'd

1347
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:07,560
Speaker 5: never heard the song, and it was like, come on,

1348
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 5: you can do.

1349
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 1: And it was. It looms so large in my mind

1350
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 1: that when it happened, I was like, really, that was it,

1351
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 1: same exact thing, so me.

1352
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 2: She opens the door, so happy to see him. He

1353
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:22,160
Speaker 2: wishes her a merry Christmas and hands her a tiny

1354
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 2: ring box. Tapanga opens the gift in awe. It's a

1355
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 2: promise ring. It means they're going to be together forever.

1356
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:30,280
Speaker 2: Tapanga asks if he really wants to be with her,

1357
01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 2: considering they're so different from each other. Corey says yes,

1358
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 2: and he doesn't need a gift from Topanga this year,

1359
01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:37,720
Speaker 2: she's already given him one. He thought he knew everything

1360
01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,080
Speaker 2: about her, but he's just starting to find out. They

1361
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 2: both agree it's good that they're different, but then Tapanga

1362
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:45,959
Speaker 2: tells him to open his present. It's the exact same

1363
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 2: ring box with the exact same bow, and it's also

1364
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 2: a promise ring. Maybe they're the same in some ways

1365
01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 2: after all. And I really did like this episode for

1366
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,480
Speaker 2: Corey and to Panga minus the poopy scene. Minus the

1367
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,920
Speaker 2: poopy scene where you know, he's like, oh, she wakes

1368
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 2: me up in the morning and to Penga's like, I'm

1369
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 2: going to do this every night mine?

1370
01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:08,520
Speaker 1: Is that? I like that?

1371
01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 2: There was we got to see them in a situation

1372
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 2: where they're kind of playing house and they realize they

1373
01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 2: have some serious differences and ultimately that instead of letting

1374
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,120
Speaker 2: that drive them apart, they're going to embrace them.

1375
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 3: All of that in the abstract is the great.

1376
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 4: In the specifics, the specifics of what make Corey into

1377
01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 4: Panga to Panga different, it just falls back on, well,

1378
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,760
Speaker 4: she's a woman who's nagging and we're shopping, and you know,

1379
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,440
Speaker 4: I was like, why why couldn't it be like exactly

1380
01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 4: like we said to Penga's idiosyncrasies that are very much

1381
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 4: rooted in who to Pega is. Yeah, it's not the

1382
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:50,720
Speaker 4: same thing that Amy has and that all women have, right,

1383
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 4: it would have been so easy to just pivot it

1384
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 4: to she wants very specific, weird traditions, and you know,

1385
01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 4: there are a few of them, but they're not rooted

1386
01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 4: in character. They're just right a litany of like she

1387
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 4: has this tradition, this tradition, but it's like if it

1388
01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 4: was rooted in her essential to Penginness, Yeah, this whole

1389
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 4: because yes, abstractly that's a great storyline, but yeah, it

1390
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 4: just doesn't feel rooted in you know, our show.

1391
01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:17,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's also the second episode in a row where

1392
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 5: it's Topanga going to Corey kind of like I was wrong.

1393
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 5: It got stopped in the last episode because as she's

1394
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 5: saying to Angela, maybe we're wrong and we've been doing

1395
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 5: this wrong.

1396
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: We're not thinking about their feelings. Then the girls come

1397
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:32,520
Speaker 1: in and it ruins it.

1398
01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 5: But this is the second time now where it's like, ooh,

1399
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 5: I've come into his life and I need to go

1400
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,640
Speaker 5: to him and apologize. So there's also that kind of

1401
01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 5: it didn't necessarily bump me, but I was like, I

1402
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 5: wonder how many times Tapanga's going to.

1403
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 1: Alter his life and then go apologize for it like

1404
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:47,320
Speaker 1: it's it was strange.

1405
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're right. I like it more in the

1406
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,520
Speaker 2: abstract than in the very specifics. But I like that

1407
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,720
Speaker 2: the two of them realized they both handled things a

1408
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 2: little incorrectly.

1409
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:58,800
Speaker 1: I was maybe a little too pushy about my things.

1410
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 2: You reacted too harshly to me even having things, And ultimately,

1411
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 2: is that going to let us stop us having a

1412
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 2: future together?

1413
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 4: No?

1414
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 2: And as a nice little button on it, Look, we

1415
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 2: even got each other the same gift for Christmas.

1416
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:15,800
Speaker 1: It's just kind of cute.

1417
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,440
Speaker 5: We'll compromise on the little things, but the big things

1418
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:19,320
Speaker 5: were on the same page.

1419
01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 1: For Yeah, that's that.

1420
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 2: Or we'll find our own version of those big things.

1421
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,880
Speaker 2: And then we're in the tag in the Matthews living room,

1422
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 2: everyone's gathered around the tree as Eric opens a gift. So,

1423
01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:32,400
Speaker 2: now is this Christmas Eve?

1424
01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,680
Speaker 4: No, this is Christmas Day, I'm assuming, but we're.

1425
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 1: In the same clothes, all right.

1426
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:42,920
Speaker 2: Okay, so he is going to open his gifts on

1427
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 2: Christmas Eve, just maybe the ones from Topanga, but you're

1428
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 2: in your family.

1429
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 1: Is Christmas Eve Day not four days long? Do you

1430
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: not do that?

1431
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:52,560
Speaker 3: Are you guys changed?

1432
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,960
Speaker 1: Change and you want to change? Are you guys weird?

1433
01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, it's Christmas eve Day one, Chris

1434
01:04:59,320 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 1: Day two?

1435
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 6: Actually?

1436
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,080
Speaker 4: Will could you tell that we were having so many

1437
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 4: in jokes going on in this seed in the background?

1438
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, Oh you open up a pair of

1439
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:08,840
Speaker 3: box officers.

1440
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 4: All of us are like and we have we are

1441
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 4: like saying things to each other that we can't hear,

1442
01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 4: but we are all completely out of character trying to

1443
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 4: make each other laugh up there. I was like, this

1444
01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:21,360
Speaker 4: is oh my god. I was like, I could just

1445
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 4: see us during rehearsal. We must have said something ridiculous

1446
01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:28,320
Speaker 4: about underwear or you, and we are all trying to

1447
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 4: keep it together or trying to make each other laugh,

1448
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 4: and it's like we're just completely breaking character and like

1449
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 4: doing a whole bit up there.

1450
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 1: Trying to still make sense of what day it was.

1451
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 2: And I was like, maybe Eric is just opening to

1452
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 2: Pega's gifts. Maybe everybody's going to open the gifts from

1453
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 2: Topenga since that's her tradition. And then I was like,

1454
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 2: but he's holding boxers, and I don't think Topanga bought

1455
01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:51,479
Speaker 2: Eric boxing and it.

1456
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: Was so Eric.

1457
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:53,880
Speaker 5: It's like, because you always wear these, you know how

1458
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 5: We're always looking up and.

1459
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:58,960
Speaker 4: Go there for the cost of the spending limit for

1460
01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:04,520
Speaker 4: a pair of box bits underwear.

1461
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 5: Weird?

1462
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:05,960
Speaker 1: Is that where.

1463
01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 3: I don't know?

1464
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 1: So everyone owes at his new pair of boxers.

1465
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 4: And that's where I was like, we are losing again,

1466
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:17,240
Speaker 4: and I think what happened if we probably got the

1467
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:20,520
Speaker 4: note be really happy, and so we decided to like

1468
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:22,680
Speaker 4: rub it in David Kendall's face and be like, oh,

1469
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 4: I'll give you big because we watch we are way

1470
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,040
Speaker 4: too happy about those boxers. And you can see me

1471
01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 4: and Ben and matt just like like hamming it up.

1472
01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:32,840
Speaker 3: Oh my god.

1473
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,640
Speaker 1: Phoenie pipes Phoene pipes up.

1474
01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:37,920
Speaker 2: And now for my favorite part of the holidays, a

1475
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 2: Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Everyone takes their spots on

1476
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 2: the couch to hear Phoene read the classic tale. Morgan

1477
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 2: is sitting on Tapanga's lap while the rest of the

1478
01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:48,880
Speaker 2: Matthews are all squished side by side. As Phoene starts,

1479
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 2: Jack's already starting to slowly fall asleep and then we

1480
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,439
Speaker 2: jump forward in time. Now Phoenie is finishing the book.

1481
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 2: The camera pans to reveal everyone is fast asleep on

1482
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 2: the couch. Jack and Sean are even passed out on

1483
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:03,520
Speaker 2: the floor. Feeney looks at the disinterested crowd and yells bah.

1484
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 1: Humbug, And that's our episode.
