So apparently on Paramount Plus and Amazon 0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:57.120 they have different sixes and seven. It's the only time 0:00:57.160 --> 0:01:00.080 it happened. So if you're following along with us and 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.600 you're thinking, why aren't you talking about Alison going on 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:07.640 vacation with Billy's parents Because you're watching on Amazon. 0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:10.080 And they're showing seven before six and. 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:12.800 They're showing seven before six, right, So so pair went 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.240 back next week and then watched this episode that I 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:18.720 just watched in the hallway because it's crazy good. Yeah, 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.720 and I did. I made out with Jake. 0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:24.440 Three times a glad, let's get into it. 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:26.840 I don't remember. I was like, oh my goodness, that 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:28.760 is some pretty hot stuff. That was spicy. 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:29.119 Yeah. 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.760 So the one we are supposed to be watching now, 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:33.200 Courtney's all, when you. 0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:34.200 Guys watched, how was it? 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:38.440 I loved about it is It was totally like the 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:41.720 bad boy and good girl fantasy. It felt like it 0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:43.679 was a fantasy for both types. 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:45.360 I feel like Breakfast Club, didn't it? 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:45.959 Yeah? 0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:47.120 Yeah it did. It was so you. 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:49.400 Would have liked me. I thought you would be too smart. 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:51.960 I thought you wouldn't you know? It was great? 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.120 Yeah, you know. But we're cutting to the end. Okay, 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:55.800 so we have to start at the beginning. But I 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:58.720 literally watched it three minutes ago, so it's very freshman 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:00.800 eat it up from it. 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:01.480 She's already to. 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.280 Go, all right, So we are talking about season one, 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:10.400 episode six, the title Second Chances and Okay, so this 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.880 episode opens on a poker game in Billy and Allison's 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:18.160 apartment and they're playing poker. Ronda wants to she needs 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:20.280 to buy in. She wants to offer up tickets to 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:23.280 a dance show instead of money. The gangs is no way. 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:30.160 And then the last round of cards, Allison's all in 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:33.760 and she ends up scaring everybody out. They fold. Turns 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:34.720 out she was bluffing. 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.160 But it was so cute the way I love seeing 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:40.520 everybody together. Right, we've done it at the pool, but 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:42.640 I remember that we would get in so much trouble 0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:44.560 because we were laughing so hard. We just want to 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.400 talk in between. It's like, but we don't all As 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:47.720 you guys know, I've been trying to get everybody in 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:51.000 my house for dinner for now thirty years, so this 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.360 is the only chance we had to sort of all 0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:56.000 be in a room talking and chatting. So it was 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.640 like being kindergarteners. We kept getting shirt, we kept getting 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.480 in trouble with The chemistry was great among all of us, 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:05.640 was so sweet. You could really see that we were friends, Yeah, right, 0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:06.400 I could really. 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.640 I think those scenes were so important for that to 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.079 start happening that comra. Do you remember shooting that scene, Like, 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:12.520 do you remember sitting around the poker table. 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:14.840 I don't remember that scene exactly. It was fun to watch, 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.160 but I remember having scenes when we were all together 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.440 and we would get they were so frustrated with us, 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.520 but we were so excited to be together because especially 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:26.000 later when you guys came on, the storylines were so separate. Yep, 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.160 so it really became more rare for us all to 0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:30.480 be together. So it's really so much fun to we 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.320 were catching up. We want it. We're like, you've brought 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.160 us all together, don't make us stop into our lines. 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.000 Yeah, very And it was always the most fun when 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.000 we were all together, most fun. And I love that 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.600 this episode we're starting to see that more often in 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.440 the last episode two, like they're putting the characters all together. Yes, 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:47.520 but it is sort of Uh, they're still in this 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:50.160 mode of just telling one character story at a time. 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:54.440 They're not necessarily carrying over just yet. These are self 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:57.880 contained stories. Still in this this episode, we really are 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:02.680 going to have an Alison and Jake storyline, and then 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.920 we're also going to have a Rhonda storyline, just as 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:08.280 we're getting to know those characters individually exactly. But yeah, 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.720 so the end of the Poker Hand, Alison reveals that 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.280 she's the reason she's so good at bluffing is she 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.559 feels like she's good under pressure. And that was also, 0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.279 by the way, how she studied in school. She would 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:22.480 do it at the last minute, she'd cramp for things 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:24.160 because she was so good under pressure. 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:24.560 She said. 0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:27.240 So she takes the pot, she wins the hand for 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:29.920 the night, and but Jake's like the scene out is 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:31.000 like him going hmm. 0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.480 A little fun on the that's what Alison said about. 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:38.160 Yeah. So then we go have some very Melrose lines. 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.720 He says, I showed you mine, you show me. Yeah, 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.760 that was the Melrose line. So there's already already this 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:49.800 this flirty foreplay happening and foreshadowing. And then I wouldn't 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:51.320 have taken you for this, and then you said, well 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.200 you don't know me, and it was just this whole 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:57.120 kind of thing foreshadowing. Yeah, those very key Melrose lines. Yeah, 0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.880 very showed you mine, show me your. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.640 I'm very subtle, very super subtle. 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:03.039 Yeah. 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.599 So then we find Matt swimming in the pool, Ronda 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:11.440 coming to invite him. Yea topless count. Ronda's inviting him 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.920 to go to this dance thing, and he has absolutely 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.240 no interest in attending. She says, I need you there. 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:18.560 He says, all right, I'll go. 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.000 So of course she does, because he's the nicest person, is. 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:24.600 The nicest friend. And then Jake comes knocking on Alison's 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:28.320 door the next morning or later the next morning, asking 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.120 for help with something. Doesn't want to tell her what 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:32.279 it is, but would she mind coming to his apartment 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:33.200 later that night. 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:37.240 Right, which is also said Daphne's thinking about the foreshadowing. 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.000 So now you've already been set up that there's some chemistry, 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:41.000 so it feels. 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:41.160 Like and. 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:44.120 What is that about? 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:44.800 Like? 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:51.520 So then we go to the dance performance and Matt 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:55.240 and Ronda are watching the performance, and I think that 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.520 Matt is just wrapped. He is just loving the performance. 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:00.640 He didn't expect to and is just. 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:03.599 Love so much of the dancing. Yeah, like they really 0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:05.400 focused on the dancing. That was fun. 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:08.480 I mean to see that, to see these amazing dancers 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:13.560 clearly not just you know, extras, they were dancers, and 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:16.600 the doing what they were doing, the choreography, and that 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.600 that lead guy was amazing. It looked like dancer. 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.839 And just just for the prep work for that scene, 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.279 like they had to get those dancers together and rehearse 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:26.960 it and to shoot that sort of thing. 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:30.080 And the music. I think it brought a lot into Melose. 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:32.480 It is in the courtyard, and it was really cool 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:36.000 to bring in that artists, you know, that that artistic 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:38.480 just bring it into our gang. 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:40.320 I really enjoy Yeah, and to give it that much time, 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.040 I really liked it too. I was very impressed. 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.280 But I did happen to watch the show with Doug 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.719 and made him watch with me, and he's sitting there going, 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:51.480 I don't remember any of this episode. He didn't remember 0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:54.080 the poker game. And then he's like watching the concerts, 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:57.559 like yet, no no recollection of watching this at all. 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.800 And then and then as his character is like so 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:03.320 enamored with the dancing, you know, for a guy who 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:04.680 didn't want to go in the first place. And then 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:07.520 he's watching the show and he's so enamored and he's like, yes, 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:11.840 I want to go backstage. Yes, I love this. And 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.560 he said to me, he goes, what is Matt straight? 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:18.760 Who's your friends? 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:21.960 So I want to meet your friend? 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:22.720 Meet her? 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:24.920 And it was it was confusing to him because he 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.560 has no recollection of it all. He's just great for Teresa, 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:32.360 but he was watching stage. So yeah. So then before 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:34.760 they go backstage, though, we find out what's going on 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:38.040 with Jake and Allison. She shows up at his apartment 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:42.720 and he reveals that his secret is he didn't have 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:45.520 a great upbringing and he never finished with high school 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.640 and what he's doing now is studying for the GED. 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:48.840 Would she help him? 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:52.280 And which is so sweet And this is what makes 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.360 Grant such a lovely guy and makes Jake such an 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:57.720 interesting character, which is he's this tough guy. Same with 0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:01.240 Grant too, it's something they share, but this incredibly sweet 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.760 side and that he can play both. I was so 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:06.040 moved by this scene. 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.600 I was just like the vulnerability from the tough guy. 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:14.080 Yeah, we love we love the vulnerable, the vulnerable. 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:17.440 Because that's real. It's not even like a vulnerability of 0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:20.360 like his feelings to not have a deed to not 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:24.679 you know, have graduated, not from college, but high school 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.480 is a shame that you know, he carried around. So 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.360 to open that up to you, you know, yeah, the smart, 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:35.040 pretty girl. I thought that was really and that he 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.440 was optimistic about it. Felt like for the first time 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:39.600 he might have a future because he's been he's decided 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.080 to work towards this, but he does think maybe I 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:43.720 need some help because I want to make sure that 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.240 I get this, and so he's asking Alison. 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.880 Yeah, and to ask for help, right, Like, that's such 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.040 a sweet moment for when a man can ask for help. 0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:52.959 It's so important. It's a great thing to model to. 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.200 I mean, this was a great such is such a 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:56.000 sweet scene. 0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:59.960 So then we're back at the dance performance and Matt 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.920 wants to meet the dancer friend Teresa, So they go 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:05.640 backstage to find her. I don't know if you guys 0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:07.280 notice this. Do you know who opened the door to 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:11.280 the dressing room to let them in? No, Chip Chalmers 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:20.800 one of our directors. He recurring directors, Yes, and yeah, 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.840 often he would, but they would often put crew members 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.400 in as like little bit parts or x you know, 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:29.439 like background performance. Sure enough, he had his head set 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:31.559 on and he opens the door like he's playing the 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:39.840 stage manager. Again. That was that was Doug spotting Chip. 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:42.160 He doesn't remember anything about the episode, but he's spotted. 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.960 He's like, wait, oh that's mind that Oh that's amazing. 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:49.200 Yeah, that was fun. So they walk into the dressing 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:54.680 room and they meet Teresa, and Teresa says to Matt 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:57.080 who's I loved you know, I love the performance, glad 0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:01.360 I could turn you on, And then Ronda says, well 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:06.520 so far, well only to yeah, so a dirty lick, 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.480 eliciting a dirty lock from Matt, like all right, really 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.040 around it again. Doug has zero recollection of she did 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.120 that scene. But I did sort of know like we're 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:20.280 just sort of like hinting around at the character of 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.200 Matt being gay, like nobody's come out and said, oh buddy, 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.400 you know whatever, Like it's not like an open conversation. 0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:27.840 It's just sort of like lines like this. Those the 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:30.880 bread crumbs were just sort of like dropping for the audience. 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.040 I asked Doug if there was anything like where you 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:36.920 were you not allowed to openly talk about, like how 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:40.520 like what were the parameters that was this thing part 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.559 of because there were so many things they weren't allowed 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:45.080 to do and that they weren't comfortable pushing certain boundaries 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:47.440 and stuff. But anyway, I just sort of noticed it 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:49.880 as like they're just leaving these little bread crumbs, like 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:52.319 well only to a point, just. 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:55.040 Doesn't she's not like this episode, she's a little toy 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:57.400 about why it was written this way and why he 0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:01.280 played it that way because it was obviously flirty. I mean, yeah, 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:01.520 it was. 0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.040 It was sort of like, at first it looks like, oh, 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:08.080 he's almost enamored with Teresa, yeah, as being attracted to her, 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.199 but turns out that's not it. He's just sort of 0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.000 enamored with that with art, the performance and the dancing, 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:14.720 and he's just really impressed with her dancings. 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.880 I didn't I can't remember. Did Doug remembers they're seeing 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.160 when he tells us I thought we all knew. No. 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:22.320 I think I think the characters all do. It's just 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:24.840 everyone knows. It's just sort of interesting the way the 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:26.439 show slips it in. 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:31.120 Just that time. You know, again, this is what early nineties, 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:35.760 and it was I think a lot of men and 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:40.080 women just were it was like their own self kind 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.360 of like, don't tell her whatever, because it wasn't safe, 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:47.400 especially in Hollywood actors. It was so it was like 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.120 they're just gonna be themselves and if they meet someone, 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:53.240 maybe they'll go somewhere else or they're not open with it, 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.560 which is why it's so great now. So maybe that's 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:58.360 in there here he is with this group of people, 0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:00.600 and he has a whole life of where he can 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:01.000 tell it. 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:03.440 Or not tell it, and right it was. It was 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:05.480 just sort of the reaction to those lines like that. 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:08.240 Rhonda was like, well, only to a point almost like 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.360 it was like, we're gonna hint at this, but not really. 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:12.320 And then I. 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:15.280 Was like, yeah, it was so annoyed, like that was 0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:18.480 annoying or whatever, and that was notable. 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:20.880 I thought, Yeah, so far the character is sort of 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:24.679 overtly sexless, like everybody else is having romances and things 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:28.200 are heating up, and right, yeah, and I remember Doug 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:31.320 talking about it and saying, you know, this character has 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:34.120 to have a real life. Yeah, And I also loved 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:36.400 in this we're coming up on it, but you got 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.200 to see that part of Doug that so like intense 0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:41.120 and serious and earnest, and he's trying to get her 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:42.640 to do this and take a stand. And that's how 0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.520 I remember him being such a man of principle, hilariously 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.320 funny and also really principal. It was fun to seem. 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:49.240 I was like, Oh, there's Doug. 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:56.480 They decide that they want to go out for a 0:12:56.520 --> 0:13:00.560 bite to eat afterwards and continue their conversation. That's where 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.640 Matt learns that Teresa and Ronda went to high school 0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:06.559 together and now that Teresa's making a living as a dancer. 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.400 The audition to get her into this company was something 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:11.160 that Ronda was supposed to do five years ago, but 0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:13.719 at the last minute, Ronda had broken her ankle and 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:16.320 didn't end up making the audition. So that was news 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:17.240 to Matt. 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:20.120 So that really shows that Ronda has been hiding her 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:25.480 own shames about this whole storyline about is she good 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.880 enough and that whole I mean, the whole thing's about frenemies. 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:30.400 We'll see as we go on. But for Matt, her 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:34.800 best friend, to not know, he say, wait, what you audition? 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:37.080 Wait what? I don't know. I just they made a 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:38.199 point to that, yeah, in. 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:41.440 There, and so we'll learn more about that. But then 0:13:41.480 --> 0:13:45.000 we were back to Jake and Allison's studying and they're 0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:47.760 having coffee and staying up late, and she's pushing him 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.400 to keep going, and she says, the only way to 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:53.960 cram is to cram, So let's keep going. So on 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:54.800 the very. 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:58.160 Heated studying, there's a lot of meaningful looks, there's a 0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:02.199 lot of head tilts. It's very yeah, very loaded study. 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:07.559 And so back with Matt and Rnda and Teresa. Matt 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:12.000 is encouraging Randa to go to the audition, and hey, 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:16.360 there's this, you know, another opportunity to opening in the company. 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:19.200 You should go. And you know, I think there's a 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:23.720 reason that we, you know, had this dinner with Teresa. 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.080 I think there's a reason she was put in in 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.280 front of you, is is this fate you should try 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:30.640 out for this new opening in the company. What have 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:31.280 you got to lose? 0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:36.800 So we talk about how Doug channel Jimmy Stewart, can 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.920 we just talk about how don't you believe in fate? 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.040 And she's up on this thing, and he's just like, 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.440 and I mean these were the early days in Melrose. Yeah, 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.960 I mean that ended in a few more episodes, but 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:54.120 I just love all that good and he did it 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:57.840 so beautifully. I just felt like, Wow, what happened to this? 0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:00.280 What show am I watching? This is the. 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.240 Morows so earnest and so encouraging. 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.680 Don't you believe in Faidon? Yeah? 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:10.520 And we're off her considering what she just said. So 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:14.480 then the next morning, Billy is in the court already 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:18.200 comes knocking on Jane and Michael's apartment because he's worried 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:25.320 that Alison didn't come home last night. So we learned 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.680 that Alison didn't come home that night, and we know 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:30.120 where she's been, but Billy doesn't know where she's been. 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:34.160 People start gathering, and like people gathering. 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:36.280 Everyone comes out of their apartments and they all one, 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:40.800 and we're all gathering around Jade and Michaels and the 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:47.760 speculation and then yeah, and then the speculation that she 0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:50.560 must have had one night stand and that you know, 0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:53.040 puts that seat in Billy's head. And then out she 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:54.680 comes from Jake Store. 0:15:54.920 --> 0:16:01.280 Everyone's talking about you say very pressed with Allison that 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.320 she just sort of goes basically, believe what you want, 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.480 it's none of your I was like, oh, good for you, 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:09.120 because she's such a good girl. You would think she 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.240 would immediately say it's nothing. Is something. She does say 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:12.920 it's not what you think, but in a very sort 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:16.320 of light way that leaves it open for interpretation. 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:17.600 And she does the walk of not shame back to 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:18.320 her own apartment. 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:18.760 Watch is. 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:23.920 Just I helped him, honest test. But wait, I have 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:27.680 a question for the audience. I lived in an apartment, 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:30.400 as I said earlier with Darren, and I'm wondering if 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:35.440 he got some of these stories. I'm trying to remember anyway, 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:38.080 But that's the only time I lived in an apartment 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:40.280 really when I was young like that, and it was 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:42.920 a small one. I want to know of the audience, 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:46.720 like how much do your neighbors become friends and get 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.080 in your business? And I know over the years we've 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.720 heard like, oh, we had a place like that, but 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:55.280 for to come out and everyone's standing around having a 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:58.120 discussion about should we call the police because one of 0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:00.760 us didn't come home last night? Yeah? Is that normal? 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:02.560 Does anyone else? 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:05.560 I want to imagine me all the time, all the 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:07.840 time and say I lived in an apartment just like that. 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:09.639 We were all friends, we all hung out, So I 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:12.520 think it does happened. I didn't have that experience either, 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:16.960 although I lived in an apartment and my boyfriend's best 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.440 friend lived downstairs, so that had that sort of we 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.199 really would if someone was having a barbecue, everybody showed up. 0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:26.000 It was minors, there were only it was a duplex. Yeah, 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:27.800 but I do think it happens, But. 0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:30.120 I don't think to the extent that we're talking about 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:32.240 in the scene where everybody knew the precise moment to 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:33.960 come out into the courtyard and get involved in this 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:37.679 one conversation that happened to you exactly talking are we 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:39.720 talking about Alison not coming up? Okay, let's all talk 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:41.960 about it like they all came out precisely this moment 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:44.359 to weigh in and say, you know, she probably I 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:46.919 don't want to stand and you know whatever, and the 0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:49.720 speculation all right, and then it's like she confirms it 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:52.160 when she comes out. But like that, I think obviously 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:54.280 is a heightened sort of in our courtyard the. 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:57.920 Middle every second of this, Laura. 0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.879 All these moments happened in the courtyard, Billy and Alice. 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:02.040 I don't know where you guys were, but we. 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.560 Were building already, okay, on Okay. 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:07.080 So I just it's an interesting point of like you 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.160 were just friends in the show. So at what point 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:11.760 does he you know, I see him questioning like should 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:12.000 I be? 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:13.680 You know what I mean, Like. 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:15.919 He's not just a friend. He really likes you. But 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:18.560 is he getting too possessive? Is he expecting too much? 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:19.480 Should he just let you be? 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:22.399 It's a confused Well in the last episode that I 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:24.640 watched that you guys haven't seen yet unless you're watching 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:26.800 on Amazon, and which case, you just watched it. Oh right, 0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:29.720 we pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend with his parents, 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:31.879 so that the writers were definitely leaning towards this. I 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:35.200 wondered watching it. I thought, I wondered if originally they 0:18:35.200 --> 0:18:38.080 had planned on Alison and Jake getting together, and then 0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:41.399 Andrew and I had such good chemistry. Maybe that's why 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:44.800 maybe this show was already written and then they pivoted 0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:46.399 because all of a sudden they were like, oh no, no, 0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:47.800 these two were going to get together. 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:49.960 Maybe see I felt like it was this was the 0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:53.480 moment where we got to challenge what I thought the 0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:56.640 audience all wanted to see, which was Alison and Billy 0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:58.960
