Speaker 1: Hey, Jody Sweeten, what's.
Speaker 2: Up, Hey, Andrea Barber. I don't know, I just felt
Speaker 2: like changing it up today.
Speaker 3: I don't know what that was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm trying to think of new things, like new
Speaker 4: ways to say hello, new new accents to try, Yeah,
Speaker 4: new greetings.
Speaker 3: New new accents to try hello, like missus doubtfire, that's hello.
Speaker 4: And it's a drive to day mating like who should
Speaker 4: I be Australian today?
Speaker 3: I you should do the entire show as Steve Irwin.
Speaker 2: Crikey mate, right and just yeah, everything is a reaction
Speaker 2: to a really strange animal in this show.
Speaker 1: Yeah there's plenty coming up, for sure, plenty of strange
Speaker 1: animals coming so.
Speaker 3: Oh plenty plenty.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think that would be That's that's the challenge,
Speaker 2: is that we do an entire episode in a ridiculous accent.
Speaker 2: Why it even suggest it? Because now, pep, We're gonna
Speaker 2: be like, you should totally do it, and I'm gonna
Speaker 2: be like, I was just kidding and being an idiot,
Speaker 2: and as usually, gonna get getting it. Being an idiot
Speaker 2: leads into doing something stupid.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get emails and people are gonna be like,
Speaker 1: where's the Australian accent episode.
Speaker 3: And you know what, here's the deal.
Speaker 2: We don't want to get canceled in Australia, so we
Speaker 2: are saving the masses from our horrific Australian accents.
Speaker 1: Nothing worse than having to do an accent.
Speaker 2: Everyone, Yeah, everyone heard my English accent. The first like
Speaker 2: three scenes of Full House.
Speaker 1: It was very crosscuse me, it was I.
Speaker 3: Had it was not prepared at all.
Speaker 2: What it was it was me showing up the first
Speaker 2: day and then them going, hey, you know, we think
Speaker 2: we would get you a dialect coach, and I was like,
Speaker 2: please do yes, that would have been great, and then
Speaker 2: you know you're.
Speaker 3: Shooting it on the third day.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I can't remember doing.
Speaker 2: If I start doing Shakespeare, I'll make sure and and
Speaker 2: really lean into the accent well ahead of time.
Speaker 3: But Fuller we just didn't have that luxury.
Speaker 1: I forget why Steph lost the English accent. Do you
Speaker 1: remember what, Walter?
Speaker 3: Could you pass me the water? I think it was you?
Speaker 1: I oh, was it my stinky feet?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think you. I think you like kicked your
Speaker 3: shoes off and put your feet up and I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: oh my god, my accent's.
Speaker 1: Gone, oh okay, so the whiff of Kimmy really you.
Speaker 3: Killed Thank you Kimmy Gibbler.
Speaker 1: Saving the day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, but no, we were.
Speaker 2: Sitting around the table and I was like, pass the
Speaker 2: water and they were like water and I was like WoT, yeah,
Speaker 2: and that was the thing.
Speaker 1: See, you did it great.
Speaker 3: Anyway.
Speaker 2: I thought it was a great accent as long as
Speaker 2: all I'm saying is water.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and even that was yeah, no.
Speaker 1: It's they lost the accent right away because.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, could you imagine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, five season even they were like, you know,
Speaker 2: we should have cut it in the first five lines.
Speaker 3: But it's right, Yeah, I'm good. Life is good.
Speaker 2: Actually, the girls are on spring break. Well b has
Speaker 2: been on spring break this week, Zoe starts today and yeah,
Speaker 2: looking forward to you know, it's because they don't go
Speaker 2: to the same school though. It's that fun thing where
Speaker 2: like they're not really on break at the same time,
Speaker 2: so there's never like, yeah, we all just sleep in
Speaker 2: and what you know. It was just some yeah, but
Speaker 2: actually it's fine. It keeps us kind of all on
Speaker 2: a schedule because they tend to be like there's no
Speaker 2: rules when you know, it's summer or spring break and
Speaker 2: stay up three am U. No, yeah, but no, Be
Speaker 2: is currently on with her tutor right now because she
Speaker 2: has some math homework to finish over spring break.
Speaker 3: So do you want plans? You've got to get that done.
Speaker 1: Not good?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Zoa's at school and yeah, she has her
Speaker 2: first behind the wheel test tomorrow, not test, but the lesson,
Speaker 2: her first behind the wheel lesson.
Speaker 1: Is she nervous? Is she excited? Is she ready?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 2: The answer to the last question, I have no idea,
Speaker 2: but I mean she has I've led her. You know,
Speaker 2: she's driven around parking lots. I did, just trying to
Speaker 2: get in between the lines and you know, practice signaling
Speaker 2: and all set. But this will be her first post
Speaker 2: permit behind the wheel with someone else driving.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh wow, so she'll feel much better. Is it
Speaker 4: a two hour lesson? I think they do two hours.
Speaker 3: I think it's just a one hour lesson.
Speaker 1: It's just one.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's one.
Speaker 2: But she's got to do like ten hours of it,
Speaker 2: So I think they break it up into ten sessions.
Speaker 2: Oh that's like spaced out over I think six months
Speaker 2: something like that. Like, so it's you get a regular
Speaker 2: time then plus you know, all the all the hours
Speaker 2: that we have to sign off on as parents.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was terrified when Felicity took her first driving
Speaker 4: lesson and I was out in Studio City shooting for
Speaker 4: Lele and so I wasn't there to like she was
Speaker 4: home alone, say to meet the instructor by herself and
Speaker 4: go out by yourself and your life.
Speaker 3: But also she's like, you know, you're like, but also
Speaker 3: she's getting ready to drive, So I guess I need
Speaker 3: to start.
Speaker 1: Leap into independence.
Speaker 2: Being sixteen and looking at a sixteen year old are
Speaker 2: two very different things. Being sixteen, you're like, I'm fine.
Speaker 2: Looking at a sixteen year old you're like, you are not.
Speaker 4: You're not fine, right, Yeah, No, you need a lot
Speaker 4: of life lessons and driving lessons.
Speaker 1: You can never have enough lessons.
Speaker 2: As long as no one backs their car through my kitchen,
Speaker 2: I consider it a success in my house.
Speaker 1: If that's the standard, I think you're safe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, especially considering the kitchen is a little further
Speaker 2: back in the house.
Speaker 3: Of they backed through my kitchen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe you'd have to do like a three point
Speaker 1: turn to back into.
Speaker 2: Have a shape shifting backyard in order to fit a
Speaker 2: car back there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the only way the Tanners got it done.
Speaker 4: That's the only way that they could fit all those
Speaker 4: cars in the in the backyard.
Speaker 3: We ever have, did we ever have?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: I'm sure we did, But like a DJ driving episode?
Speaker 2: Are you guys driving?
Speaker 4: There was one episode. Uh it was a location we had.
Speaker 4: We left the studio and I don't know if it
Speaker 4: was a driving lesson.
Speaker 1: I don't even know who was driving.
Speaker 4: But we did the whole fire drill thing where you
Speaker 4: get out of the car and you switch seats.
Speaker 1: We were driving Garth Garth Gibbler's.
Speaker 4: Car called wild Thing, and we got locked out of
Speaker 4: the car because so everybody got out of the car,
Speaker 4: swached places it locked and so we got locked out.
Speaker 1: So I feel like that might have been a driving episode.
Speaker 2: Because they were not like not like I mean, at
Speaker 2: some point there was like a driver's test episode maybe
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 3: I just I mean I was one. I never had
Speaker 3: one obviously for me, I was young. But yeah, I
Speaker 3: didn't remember.
Speaker 4: Oh we got a note, Season five, episode twenty, DJ
Speaker 4: receives her learners permit to drive.
Speaker 1: There we go, thank you for that note. That is
Speaker 1: thank you timely perfect. Okay, okay, cool.
Speaker 2: So we've got got like three and a half more
Speaker 2: seasons to get through and then we'll get there.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's what's going on around my house. How's
Speaker 3: how's life with you? Ab?
Speaker 1: Yeah, things are good. I've discovered a new rewatch podcast
Speaker 1: which and I don't listen to rewatch podcasts, which is
Speaker 1: ironic because I co host one.
Speaker 3: But well, I mean it's like I don't watch sitcoms.
Speaker 3: But right, I know, of course.
Speaker 4: We're so weird like that. But did you ever watch
Speaker 4: the show Felicity from nineteen ninety eight?
Speaker 2: I know of it, but no, I did not watch it,
Speaker 2: but I know it was Carrie Russell and her hair.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the hair or her hair and Carrie Russell,
Speaker 2: depending on who should have the emphasis.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Well, and that was very controversial when she cut her
Speaker 4: hair in season two or threey I can't remember.
Speaker 3: And you know, God forbid a woman cut her hair.
Speaker 1: The ratings tanked and they blamed it on her hair.
Speaker 3: Is terrible.
Speaker 4: Anyways, So there's a new podcast called Dear Felicity, and
Speaker 4: I think they only have like three or four episodes
Speaker 4: out and I am just I'm I'm like, now I
Speaker 4: get it.
Speaker 1: I get why people love these rewatch podcasts. So I'm
Speaker 1: watching the episodes at night and I'm listening to the Oh,
Speaker 1: it's fantastic. It's a it's a real deep dive because
Speaker 1: they dealt with lots of sy It was an hour
Speaker 1: long drama. Yeah, they dealt with us.
Speaker 3: Yea drama. And it was like college age, right.
Speaker 4: Yes, it was about freshman It starts with freshman year
Speaker 4: in college.
Speaker 1: It went for four seasons.
Speaker 2: Yes, there's definitely some heavier topics and things to discuss.
Speaker 4: I watched episode seven last night, and they deal with
Speaker 4: sexual assault in the first season set episodes sound I'm
Speaker 4: like that they really dove deep right away, like straight
Speaker 4: from the jump. So anyways, highly recommend if you're not you,
Speaker 4: But for any fans of Felicity, I mean my I
Speaker 4: name my daughter Felicity.
Speaker 1: This is like my all time favorite show city.
Speaker 3: Yeah.

Speaker 4: that's what I'm naming my daughter Felicity. So I don't
Speaker 4: know if she knows that I should tell.
Speaker 3: Her that she does.
Speaker 2: Well, if she listens to our podcast, she will now
Speaker 2: and I'm sure she doesn't she.
Speaker 1: Does not know what would she? No, my kids have
Speaker 1: no interest in my career.
Speaker 3: My kids know.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, the one thing I want to hear
Speaker 2: is your voice more.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I'm good on that. I hear it enough. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: They wish they wish that we were quieter sometimes.
Speaker 3: Right, They're like, yeah, no, I don't need to hear
Speaker 3: more of my mom's voice.
Speaker 1: All right, well, should we recap an episode today?
Speaker 3: Let's do it. Let's you know what I'm feeling. I'm
Speaker 3: feeling frisky. Let's do That's recap an episode on our
Speaker 3: rewatch podcast.
Speaker 4: What a great idea, something different. Okay, let's get into it.
Speaker 4: Welcome back to how Rude Tannertos. I'm Andrea Barber and
Speaker 4: I'm Jodie Sweeten, and today we are discussing season two,
Speaker 4: episode thirteen, titled Working Mothers.
Speaker 1: I have opinions about that title. I do too, But
Speaker 1: we'll get We'll get there, We'll get there.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: It originally aired on February third, nineteen eighty nine, and.
Speaker 1: It goes a little something like this.
Speaker 4: After Jesse and Joey are offered full time jobs at
Speaker 4: an ad agency, they struggle to decide if they can
Speaker 4: do the job and still be moms to the girls.
Speaker 3: Why is it gonna be moms?
Speaker 4: I yeah, you know, it's why can't it just be
Speaker 4: parents like they have? Can they be stay at home
Speaker 4: parents or whatever?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 4: But yeah, they lean heavily on the gendered language in
Speaker 4: this episode.
Speaker 3: So it was it was nineteen eighty nine, that's.
Speaker 1: You know, definitely nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 3: Some of yeah, so again some of these, some of
Speaker 3: these episodes definitely go ah, yes, the eighties, the eighties, right, yep,
Speaker 3: although it's gotten so much better. Who'd know the difference.
Speaker 4: Okay, anyway, anyways, it was directed by Peter Baldwin, written
Speaker 4: by Jeff Franklin, and we have three stars returning as
Speaker 4: Grandma Irene is Yvonne Wilder.
Speaker 1: Gosh, I love her, she just she's great. I just
Speaker 1: love every.
Speaker 4: Time she just know, I command the scene like she
Speaker 4: is so good.
Speaker 1: Great, Yeah, love her.
Speaker 4: And then we have James Hampton as mister Maltesta. He
Speaker 4: appeared in the films The Longest Yard and Teen Wolf,
Speaker 4: but he is best remembered as the eager but inepte
Speaker 4: butler Private Hannibal Dobbs oh Burglar, not butler Private Hannibal
Speaker 4: Dabbs in the classic.
Speaker 1: Sitcom F Troupe.
Speaker 4: Oh Yeah from nineteen sixty five, sadly passed away in
Speaker 4: twenty twenty one from Parkinson's He's great too, and I
Speaker 4: think he comes back yeah future episodes as the ads
Speaker 4: the ad Agency boss, so he's great too. And then lastly,
Speaker 4: we have Nora Masterson as Edna Foley. She is known
Speaker 4: for Quantum Leap, Other World and Dallas.
Speaker 1: Oh Yeah, she's great too. Love her all right, so
Speaker 1: let's get into it. We open in the living room.
Speaker 4: Michelle is wearing roller skates and is decked out in
Speaker 4: safety gear. Stephan DJ are holding her hands to keep
Speaker 4: her steady. DJ compliments her on being such an athlete,
Speaker 4: and Steph wonders why it's such a big deal they're
Speaker 4: holding her hands. Michelle gives her a judgmental look.
Speaker 3: The looks in this scene were hilarious.
Speaker 1: They're so good.
Speaker 2: I think it was it looked like Mary Kate. I
Speaker 2: think it was Mary Kate. But yeah, the looks and
Speaker 2: the attitude were just hilarious. You can really see them
Speaker 2: like this episode in particular, I feel like you really
Speaker 2: see Michelle kind of starting to have funny lines but
Speaker 2: like they finally figured out that they could kind of
Speaker 2: repeat what Adria said, and so they started really leaning
Speaker 2: into that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can tell they like the reaction When they
Speaker 4: get a laugh from the audience. You can tell that
Speaker 4: they're like, oh, oh, I'm going to do that again,
Speaker 4: I'm going to do it better.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's great.
Speaker 4: It's great watching the evolution of the babe when they
Speaker 4: were babies and now they're growing into the actors.
Speaker 1: It's so great.
Speaker 4: So DJ is trying to build Michelle's confidence, but Steph
Speaker 4: is annoyed because Michelle is two and Steph didn't learn
Speaker 4: to skate until she was four. Again, Michelle gives her
Speaker 4: a judgy look. Michelle easily likes to go of their
Speaker 4: hands and walks away in her skates. DJ asks, well,
Speaker 4: and Steph comes to the conclusion she's lying about her age.
Speaker 4: I'm very impressed with uh, with the skating skills of
Speaker 4: Mary or Mary Kater Ashley.
Speaker 1: She's really good at walking, she can.
Speaker 3: Walking in at walking. Yeah, well, I mean, have you
Speaker 3: ever tried to skate in those plastic skates?
Speaker 1: It's been having a kid.
Speaker 3: I tried it last week. No, those plastic skates, I
Speaker 3: mean it's it's like trying to skate an office chair
Speaker 3: across carnolium. Yet right, like it's not it's you're not
Speaker 3: gonna pick up any speed or yet or traction.
Speaker 2: Well no traction you'll get no, but no like no smooth,
Speaker 2: definitely none.
Speaker 3: Yeah no. But still she was great, And I mean
Speaker 3: all the safety gear was exactly how my dad used
Speaker 3: to make sure that I left the house when rollerblading,
Speaker 3: and then I'd go around the corner and rip it
Speaker 3: all off and hide it under a bush.
Speaker 1: You did, I could totally picture that. Yeah, my experience
Speaker 1: with roller blades.
Speaker 3: Were you on?
Speaker 1: This was during Fuller House?
Speaker 4: Were you in this scene where I had Kimmi roller
Speaker 4: blades into the front door or through the front door
Speaker 4: and has to land on the couch and they had
Speaker 4: a stunt double for me, and I was like, I
Speaker 4: need a stunt double i can roller blade and they
Speaker 4: were like, no, you're not putting on the roller blades.
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I'm going to put on the roller blades.
Speaker 4: So I put on the roller blades and skated over
Speaker 4: to video village and.
Speaker 1: What happens fell on my button?
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: So they're like, yes, bring your life stunty.
Speaker 3: Thank you for letting us see in action that we
Speaker 3: were right.
Speaker 1: Oh worst, A very humbling moment.
Speaker 2: But well, I mean, I guess in that case, Mary
Speaker 2: Kate was doing a lot better than you were.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's why I'm impressed with her abilities.
Speaker 3: All.
Speaker 1: She did way better than I did at age.
Speaker 3: I already lepped over the carpet probably actually you.
Speaker 1: Did many times, many times.
Speaker 4: So we have the opening credits, and then we are
Speaker 4: in Jesse's room. Joey and Jesse are pacing. They're trying
Speaker 4: to find a way to give their new jingle some pizzazz.
Speaker 4: Jesse points to the poster of Sammy Davis Junior and
Speaker 4: gets an idea. Joey suggests, we'll give them a Sammy
Speaker 4: double whammy. They channel their inner Sammy Davis Junior and
Speaker 4: give the jingle a shot.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, it was bad. That was cringe.
Speaker 3: It was super cringe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was it.
Speaker 3: I want to I was like like I just kind
Speaker 3: of sucked up into myself.
Speaker 4: I was like, no, no, you know, they tried, they tried,
Speaker 4: they tried.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a for effort, but yeah, it was not good.
Speaker 1: Not good.
Speaker 2: Sorry, that's okay, Sorry, guys, Yeah, it was. I mean, look,
Speaker 2: it was as good as my English accent.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's fair, that's fair. Yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 4: Jesse reminds Joey that they have to get this done
Speaker 4: by tomorrow, again procrastinating what yeah, Then he asks how
Speaker 4: much time they have before the girls come home. Joey states, well,
Speaker 4: at the stroke of three, we turned back into housewives.
Speaker 4: These these gender jokes did not age well, so Jesse
Speaker 4: quickly asks Joey what comes to mind when he says
Speaker 4: twenty four hour convenience store.
Speaker 1: Joey shrugs six dollars for a loaf of bread.
Speaker 3: Now here's here's here's the sad thing is in today's economy,
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if that's good or bad. I'm like,
Speaker 3: six dollars for a loaf of bread.
Speaker 1: I thought that was a lot for nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 3: Right, right?
Speaker 1: But right?
Speaker 2: So that I mean, you know, the tour is a
Speaker 2: convenience store. You pay a lot more for like any
Speaker 2: little food items. But nowadays I feel like we're probably
Speaker 2: pushing six.
Speaker 3: Dollars for a loaf of bread. Yeah, I was like,
Speaker 3: six dollars over bread? Is that bad or good?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I hesitated too, sure of the reference. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 4: that joke didn't age well either, but yeah, well neither
Speaker 4: did inflation exactly. They continue to brainstorm ideas for Hurry
Speaker 4: Mart and come up with Hurry Mart, the Great American
Speaker 4: General Store.
Speaker 1: Jesse asks how much time.
Speaker 4: They have left, just as Stephan DJ walk in greeting them.
Speaker 4: Steph is dressed in a honeybee costume and tells Jesse
Speaker 4: it's his turn to drive the honeybee carpool.
Speaker 1: We can't be late, she says.
Speaker 2: The honeybee puns and things. Whenever the honey bees were around.
Speaker 3: Was just ridiculously good.
Speaker 1: Oh. I never get tired of the bee jokes, never
Speaker 1: get tired of them. I never get tired of seeing
Speaker 1: you enjoyed it in the bee costume, like it's so adorable.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I feel this is just sort of a
Speaker 3: general note. I feel like the hair in this episode.
Speaker 3: Everyone hairstyles were a little, i don't know, a little better.
Speaker 1: For you or just they're cast in general.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think maybe we we finally got to
Speaker 2: taming that terrible perm of mine.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, but I also just like, uh.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I feel like we we the hair
Speaker 3: was a little better.
Speaker 1: They maybe French hairraid.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wrote that down like I love that French braid.
Speaker 4: Candace's hair too, has a lot of volume, a lot
Speaker 4: of Yeah.
Speaker 2: I feel like, yeah, I feel like we maybe got
Speaker 2: a new a new hair person or something, because it
Speaker 2: just feels like there's a little more attention to making
Speaker 2: the kid's hair look like really done.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I'll have to look back at IMDb or something. But
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was early seasons or later seasons.
Speaker 4: We had Frankie as our hair stylist.
Speaker 2: That was like mid season, so I'm wondering if she
Speaker 2: might have joined around this time.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I had Matt danon did my hair yes
Speaker 4: later seasons that was later season. I was definitely like
Speaker 4: season seven eight, So yeah, maybe this is Frankie. Frankie's
Speaker 4: come in and this is her stamp on full full house.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Anyways, we're getting.
Speaker 4: Distracted by hair by hair. DJ walks over to Joey
Speaker 4: and asks for help with her karate. He's holding a
Speaker 4: pencil in his hand and DJ chops it in a half.
Speaker 4: Joey's impressed. I pity the guy who tries to attack
Speaker 4: you with a pencil. Steph asks Jesse if he could
Speaker 4: teach her an Elvis song for the Honeybee Talent Show.
Speaker 4: Jesse replies in his Elvis voice, I'd be happy to
Speaker 4: help you out there, little mama, and Steph mimics the impression.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. You're a beautiful uncle. And you
Speaker 1: did that impression way better than I just did. Right now.
Speaker 1: You did very good for a six year old or
Speaker 1: seven year old. You did.
Speaker 3: It's good. I can see I see the lip. Yeah, no,
Speaker 3: I can't do a thing. Yeah, this doesn't work. It
Speaker 3: was great.
Speaker 4: Jesse gives her some pointers by flipping her collar up
Speaker 4: and holding up her lip as she tries the impression again.
Speaker 3: That's what you need.
Speaker 1: You need someone there to hold.
Speaker 3: Up your lip.
Speaker 2: That's about the only way I can do it. But
Speaker 2: now I just look like I haven't getting dental work done. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I just like a yeah, you're getting a crown put.
Speaker 3: On my on my gums or something. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The next scene, we're in the kitchen.
Speaker 4: Jesse is pacing the kitchen while holding the telephone, telling
Speaker 4: it to ring, and Michelle mimicks him every time he
Speaker 4: says it ring. Jesse finally tells her, not you the
Speaker 4: telephone huh. Never get tired of that either.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 4: Right, Joey walks up from his room carrying four large
Speaker 4: garbage bags. He announces that he finally cleaned under his bed.
Speaker 3: Jesse's Joey looks very fashionable. By the way, this is
Speaker 3: the most normal I've seen Joey.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he wears a suit later on.
Speaker 3: A suit, but like he's just got a striped shirt
Speaker 3: and the pants.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no wacky sweaters with geometric I mean, I think.
Speaker 2: There was something like a weird little emblem of something
Speaker 2: on the shirt. But from whatever it was like, it
Speaker 2: was not it was very demure, shall we say, for
Speaker 2: mister Gladstone's wardrobe.
Speaker 3: But he looked great.
Speaker 1: He does look great, more like a Joe. He's not Joey,
Speaker 1: he's Joe.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's sort of the thing, is that he's, you know,
Speaker 2: all of those clothes, like he cleaned out all of
Speaker 2: the ridiculous clothes.
Speaker 1: That makes sense. I can't even put that together.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I like that.
Speaker 4: Well, he had like four garbage bags. I mean, what
Speaker 4: else would be in those besides clothes?
Speaker 2: Anne, I've seen I've seen teenager's rooms. There's a lot
Speaker 2: of things that can be under a bed.
Speaker 1: It's like a hoarder's den for sure. God.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So Jesse is very stressed because the agency was
Speaker 4: supposed to call them at one thirty and it's one
Speaker 4: thirty two. They must have hated their hurry Mark jingle.
Speaker 4: Joey tells them to relax. They must have liked it
Speaker 4: so much they threw a party and lost.
Speaker 1: Track of time. Yep, right, sure, Joey.
Speaker 4: Jesse snaps back, what's obvious is that when you were
Speaker 4: a baby, somebody played the bongos on.
Speaker 1: Your soft spot. Ouch. Wow. The barbs keep on flying
Speaker 1: between these two.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was actually a pretty good one though. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: that was kind of funny.
Speaker 4: Joey asks for a hand with the garbage, and Jesse
Speaker 4: tells Michelle to come with them. When the boys walk outside,
Speaker 4: Michelle decides to slam the door shut on them, locking
Speaker 4: them out of the house.
Speaker 3: Okay, when do we ever lock the door though everybody
Speaker 3: else walks into the damn house? Yeah, We've never It's
Speaker 3: always always open.
Speaker 4: Kimmy, I've barged through that door more times than I
Speaker 4: can count, And so I'm like.
Speaker 3: When did they sudden suddenly we're locking the door.
Speaker 1: It's a convenient just for the jokes. Got the jokes
Speaker 1: gotta work, yep, yep.
Speaker 4: So the guys jiggle the handle and encourage Michelle to
Speaker 4: open the door. Just as she begins to walk towards them,
Speaker 4: the phone rings. She immediately runs over it to it
Speaker 4: and answers, hey man, Jesse. Jesse's yelling at her from
Speaker 4: outside the window to take a message and grab a
Speaker 4: pencil from the desk. Michelle says bye, man and hangs
Speaker 4: up the phone before quickly running into the living room.
Speaker 4: The boys think she's headed for the front door and
Speaker 4: run in that direction. And I think this is the
Speaker 4: first time we have seen actors use that space, that
Speaker 4: back window in the kitchen.
Speaker 3: With the light the back window.
Speaker 4: I like, I don't recall ever being back there for
Speaker 4: a scene. That's just where they store like dusty foliage
Speaker 4: and light fans for the wind right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think maybe one episode you saw somebody like
Speaker 2: cross another time, but yeah, something like that. But you've
Speaker 2: never seen anybody imply that you can get from the
Speaker 2: backyard to the front door through the sideyard.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and now picturing the house because you have
Speaker 4: to go up, you have to go up a level
Speaker 4: to get to the living room, which is what the
Speaker 4: backyard is on the same level as the living room.
Speaker 4: So did they go around and then like slide down
Speaker 4: a hill to get around to I'm overthinking this. I'm
Speaker 4: definitely overthinking this.
Speaker 3: This is this, This house is the Winchester Mystery House. Okay,
Speaker 3: it doesn't. It has stairs that go nowhere.
Speaker 2: It's got it's like an Escher painting, you know, like
Speaker 2: it just looks like it's three different stories, but really
Speaker 2: it's just one continuous loop.
Speaker 3: Like the house makes no sense.
Speaker 2: Don't even don't attempt to like look at the picture
Speaker 2: and reconcile it, because it's just not gonna happen.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and my brain already hurts just from trying to
Speaker 4: work that out in my brain, just from waking up.
Speaker 4: So all of a sudden, Danny walks into the kitchen
Speaker 4: and picks up Michelle. He asks where Joey and Jesse went,
Speaker 4: and she tells him they are on the patio.
Speaker 3: Danny lets up Lenie Ray the patio.
Speaker 1: I'm like you, she doesn't know what a patio is.
Speaker 4: Danny laughs and he says, when did you learn to
Speaker 4: say patio? And she tells him Sunday He asks when
Speaker 4: she learned to say Sunday and she responds Monday. This
Speaker 4: is so cute, you know, she's just learning her days
Speaker 4: of the week and she's just so proud.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe she's just or she's actually having a
Speaker 2: conversation and she's just incredibly quick witted for a two
Speaker 2: year old, and she's got great timing.
Speaker 1: Secretly, Michelle is smarter than anyone else in the Tanner household,
Speaker 1: at least smarter than the gain. Oh.
Speaker 3: Look that I've seen a few episodes. Sometimes that bar
Speaker 3: is pretty low, you know what I mean. So it's possible.
Speaker 4: So Jessa Joey continue to run around house shouting for Michelle.
Speaker 4: Jesse offers her a cookie and a kiss if she
Speaker 4: opens the door. Danny hears them outside and unlocks the
Speaker 4: door himself. Where's my kiss and cookie?
Speaker 1: He jokes.
Speaker 4: The phone rings again and Jesse answers it immediately. It's
Speaker 4: mister Malatesta from the ad agency. Joey holds the phone
Speaker 4: to his chest so he can cheer loudly about the
Speaker 4: fact that they brought they bought their jingle whoo. He
Speaker 4: returns back to the phone and calmly tells the man
Speaker 4: that's awfully good news.
Speaker 1: Sir.
Speaker 4: Joey and Jesse split off into their rooms to get ready,
Speaker 4: and Danny sarcastically complains, somebody still owes me a kiss,
Speaker 4: and Michelle places one on his cheek as he holds her.
Speaker 3: That was so sweet.
Speaker 1: Oh love it.
Speaker 3: What an episode, though, that wouldn't make any sense today
Speaker 3: with cell phones with a landline. Yeah, waiting for a call.
Speaker 1: That phone, which by the way, looks very plastic and
Speaker 1: Fisher Price esque.
Speaker 3: No, it was real phone though, I mean it didn't
Speaker 3: it didn't connect anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they looked so plastically.
Speaker 3: But that's been a lot when you had colors that
Speaker 3: matched your decord. Who has a blue phone? Besides like
Speaker 3: blues clues, you know what I mean? Who's got a
Speaker 3: blue phone? Yeah?
Speaker 4: And it's it's not even like the lips phone. I
Speaker 4: understand why DJ has the lips phone because that's cool
Speaker 4: to a teenager.
Speaker 3: Also very difficult to talk into. Though.
Speaker 2: Have you ever tried to hold one of those half
Speaker 2: of a lip on your shoulder while you're trying to
Speaker 2: do something else with your It's nearly impossible.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, it's not very ergonomical, but hey, it
Speaker 1: matches the curtains and that well, not the lip phone,
Speaker 1: but the blue phone. So right, right, that's all, that's
Speaker 1: all we care about, okay.
Speaker 2: And it had a very long chord because it lived
Speaker 2: on that little back table. And now it's, for some
Speaker 2: reason sitting on Michelle's table because that's where one would
Speaker 2: have a phone.
Speaker 1: Why was it on Michelle's table? I didn't mean that
Speaker 1: the joke could work, so the joe could work, So
Speaker 1: the joke could work.
Speaker 2: Well, now I think he's also holding it in the beginning,
Speaker 2: and then he sets it down on the on that
Speaker 2: tape so that the joke, so that the joke will work.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay, I'll buy that.
Speaker 4: So the next scene, we're in the the ad agency.
Speaker 4: Jesse and Joey arrive in suits and are greeted by
Speaker 4: mister mala Testa. He compliments their work, and Joey asks,
Speaker 4: so you really like our jingle? Mister Malatesta replies, no,
Speaker 4: I like my wife.
Speaker 1: I love the jingle.
Speaker 3: Such a vaudevillian joke, like Rodney Dangerfield. I wonder if
Speaker 3: this was a Lenny Rips joke. He wrote Dangerfield, and
Speaker 3: it's a very Dangerfield esque joke.
Speaker 1: I bet I bet that's a wife, but I love
Speaker 1: the right take my wife please. That's got Lenny's Lenny's
Speaker 1: voice written.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's also a very that was just
Speaker 3: sort of that the comedy of the time.
Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, yeah, no, it's funny.
Speaker 4: Jesse and Joey erupt into fake laughter. He asks the
Speaker 4: boys about turning their jingle into a whole campaign. Jesse
Speaker 4: tells him it's not a problem, but they haven't come
Speaker 4: up with a campaign before. Mister Melotusta laughs and Jesse
Speaker 4: and Joey join in. It's like, no, no, Jesse was
Speaker 4: telling the truth, sir.
Speaker 3: Why are you you hired these people to write a song,
Speaker 3: not to run an ad campaign.
Speaker 1: It's a whole different career right there.
Speaker 2: You know, right, You're like, I know you can maybe
Speaker 2: write a little music, but how about ad campaign?
Speaker 1: What I'm a commercial with actors and sets and commercial.
Speaker 2: Give me storyboards, give me the whole thing, right, I
Speaker 2: know it's not at all music related, but just roll
Speaker 2: with it. In a day too, they have a day
Speaker 2: and you have a corner office in San Francisco with
Speaker 2: a bay view.
Speaker 1: There's so many things not there's so many things raw episode.
Speaker 3: I mean again is the you know, the luck of
Speaker 3: men in the eighties. They just got it. They got
Speaker 3: it here. You want it. You want an office job,
Speaker 3: get your the whole job, the whole all of it.
Speaker 1: There you go, yeah, all of it, to take it all?
Speaker 1: Oh dear, yeah, Hi, that's the eighties.
Speaker 4: Mister Malatesta tells the boys that he has faith in
Speaker 4: them and if they do well, he will offer them
Speaker 4: a full kind job. Jesse and Joey are extremely grateful
Speaker 4: and they tell mister Malatesta they'll have the campaign done
Speaker 4: by next week. But before they can leave, mister Malatesta
Speaker 4: tells the boys they need to present the idea to
Speaker 4: the client tomorrow. Jesse and Joey laugh, but mister Malatesta
Speaker 4: isn't joking. He guides them into an office with a
Speaker 4: beautiful view of San Francisco, telling them to make themselves
Speaker 4: at home.
Speaker 2: They are they panicking that it has to be done tomorrow.
Speaker 2: When have they ever done anything ahead of time? They
Speaker 2: always do things the night.
Speaker 1: Night before, and then they stay up all night.
Speaker 2: They should be like, great, I'm so glad that you
Speaker 2: know our working style and that we only work under
Speaker 2: extreme pressure.
Speaker 3: So we got this.
Speaker 4: Yes, even if they had a week, they would wait
Speaker 4: until the night, wait until they're basically my kids. Yeah
Speaker 4: they are teenagers. Yeah yeah, waiting till the very last minute.
Speaker 4: I need a costume, I need to write a paper.
Speaker 3: You had to do this, I mean a week or
Speaker 3: a day, it really doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: So next in the living room, Danny is seated on
Speaker 4: the edge of the couch, using one arm to hold
Speaker 4: the phone and talk to Jesse and the other to
Speaker 4: hold a punching bag for DJ as she practices her karate.
Speaker 4: Danny tells Jesse, Yeah, don't worry, I'll cover for you
Speaker 4: with the girls. DJ needs him to hold the bag
Speaker 4: a little higher, and Danny tells her to go practice
Speaker 4: her mean faces instead. Danny tells Jesse, if you guys
Speaker 4: get stuck and need any help with funny ideas for
Speaker 4: your commercial, I could hello hello he was hung up on.
Speaker 1: They don't need Danny's help.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, they're obviously experts. They're like, no, they've gone
Speaker 2: from we don't know anything to like, we don't.
Speaker 3: Need help real quick. The confidence man from the one
Speaker 3: person who has worked Intel Vision before that might have
Speaker 3: some sort of an idea of you know, hey, you
Speaker 3: guys want to Oh you got it.
Speaker 4: Okay, Steph Waltz is into the living room with that
Speaker 4: red Scottie Dog sweater I think we've seen three times now, apparently.
Speaker 2: You know what though, I like that they lean into
Speaker 2: the fact that Steph probably is like, like Eddie Kidd
Speaker 2: has one particular sweatshirt that she's mildly obsessed with, Yeah,
Speaker 2: and like wants to wear all the time, And you're like,
Speaker 2: you you have to put that in the laundry place.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know about your kids, but my kids will
Speaker 2: definitely have like a hoodie or a jumper for those
Speaker 2: UK fans, they will just wear.
Speaker 3: All the time. Yeah, so maybe that's what that Maybe
Speaker 3: the Scottie dog sweatshirt is that first.
Speaker 1: That's your thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: For Felicity, it was sloths and everything. She had shirts,
Speaker 1: t shirts. Yeah, she had her.
Speaker 4: Notebook, her backpack. Everything was slots for a lot of sloths.
Speaker 4: I know she gets it from you because of your
Speaker 4: love of slots.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Remember the sloth in my living room?
Speaker 4: Yes, I wasn't there. I couldn't be there that night,
Speaker 4: although Celia invited me. But yeah, she brought a sloth
Speaker 4: to your house. Yeah, I don't even know how she
Speaker 4: arranged that.
Speaker 2: But wildlife, uh, wildlife wat station, wildlife sanctuary out here
Speaker 2: in like your Santa Clarita. Oh, it was like an
Speaker 2: educational tour. So they well, it's not like she threw
Speaker 2: it at her back in her hers, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. It wasn't like, hey, look what I got
Speaker 2: you back? She right, No, it wasn't like that.
Speaker 3: Like it was like a like an educational school tour.
Speaker 3: But it just the school happened to be my living
Speaker 3: room and it was fascinating.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so that like a trainer, a handler.
Speaker 3: Came, a handler came.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a whole little thing it was hanging
Speaker 2: on and yeah, it was sloth. Wasn't just hanging from
Speaker 2: my curtains, you know what I mean, like it was.
Speaker 2: It was a controlled sloth environment because apparently they bite
Speaker 2: the whole side tangent. Sorry guy, Yeah, well this has
Speaker 2: nothing to do with full house, nothing at all to
Speaker 2: do with.
Speaker 3: This, but yes, slots bite.
Speaker 2: I did not know that they bite, and they have
Speaker 2: a bacteria in their mouth that can cause gangreen. Yeah,
Speaker 2: what the trainer said, one of the gnarliest bite she
Speaker 2: ever got was a slot bite.
Speaker 1: I thought they'd be too slow, like, can't you move
Speaker 1: out of the way, And that's the.
Speaker 2: Only that's the it's their only form of protection is
Speaker 2: they have big fangs and if push comes to shove,
Speaker 2: they're like, I might can't run away, but I will
Speaker 2: I will bite you, which is always a great technique
Speaker 2: I'm just saying as an effective fighting tool, if you
Speaker 2: can't run away, just bite.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just bite yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah. All right, anyway back to the shows. Your lesson
Speaker 3: for your sloth.
Speaker 2: Lesson for today, guys, thanks to Jody's random information that.
Speaker 4: Could be a segment on this podcast is Jody's random
Speaker 4: random facts of uselessness.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe I can finally make use of it, you know.
Speaker 4: Uh So Steph is looking for Jesse because he's supposed
Speaker 4: to help her with an Elvis song for the Talent Show.
Speaker 4: Jesse tells the girls that their uncles are duck at work. Yes,
Speaker 4: and this is where you're wearing your French braid, which
Speaker 4: is very adult and very very beautiful, which I obviously
Speaker 4: did myself.
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, did your mom do French braids? I
Speaker 1: know that's a random question.
Speaker 3: My mom can braid. I can't. I have no idea
Speaker 3: how to do.
Speaker 2: Even my ponytails on my kids are wonky. It's much
Speaker 2: to my mother's disappointment. I can't get a nice, good,
Speaker 2: smooth ponytail.
Speaker 3: It's just I'm like, I don't know, because.
Speaker 4: I feel like your mom braided my did a French
Speaker 4: braid for me on my sixteenth birthday on Sale with
Speaker 4: the Stars.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes she did. Yeah, my mom was very good
Speaker 3: at braiding and hair and setting curlers and do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she was.
Speaker 3: She was good at that stuff.
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's why I asked her to braid my
Speaker 1: hair on the ship. Yeah, yeah, for my birthday. Oh
Speaker 1: that's so cool.
Speaker 3: Yea, because your mom apparently was like me and was like,
Speaker 3: I have no idea how to do that.
Speaker 1: I don't how to do that, ask Janice.
Speaker 3: Ok yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: So Steph is very worried because the show is tomorrow.
Speaker 4: She doesn't know whether to curl her hips, wiggle her
Speaker 4: lips or what. And DJ has a test for her
Speaker 4: green belt tomorrow, so she needs help with her karate.
Speaker 4: Danny tells the girls not to panic because he is
Speaker 4: going to teach them. Apparently this makes sense because Elvis
Speaker 4: did karate. The girls look concerned rightfully so, and Danny
Speaker 4: breaks out in an Elvis singing karate warrior impression that.
Speaker 3: Was so peak bombed, awkward, gangly. It was, it's so amazing,
Speaker 3: so gangly. He like I was like, go, go, gadget limbs,
Speaker 3: Like I didn't you know what I mean. It was
Speaker 3: like as he threw an arm out, it like it
Speaker 3: was like, uh like the stretch armstrong. It just flung
Speaker 3: out and I was like, oh my god, I got
Speaker 3: longer and then it came back like it was hilarious
Speaker 3: and it reminded me.
Speaker 2: Do you remember the time. I don't know if you
Speaker 2: were in it with us, but we were shooting a promo.
Speaker 2: This was like later seasons, I think season seven or eight.
Speaker 2: We're shooting a promo and it was we would shoot
Speaker 2: these you know, hey things for watching wkzy Z, Like
Speaker 2: you you have to go through like one hundred different
Speaker 2: stations and whatever. We were doing one, and it was
Speaker 2: like we were supposed to be dancing and so Bob,
Speaker 2: it was a long end of a long day. You
Speaker 2: have to do these at the end of like whatever
Speaker 2: you're shooting. So he starts dancing around and doing his
Speaker 2: little thing and just goes nuts, right and lays on
Speaker 2: the floor and kicks his leg, kicks his leg out, hits.
Speaker 3: Me in the head.
Speaker 6: No, no, he felt he Oh my god, it was
Speaker 6: but it was like the Jesus. It was just such
Speaker 6: a it was like, oh no, no, it was Bob.
Speaker 3: He felt. He was like, and you know, Bob like, oh,
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry. Later, oh my god, he was just
Speaker 3: obsessed with like, did he hurt you?
Speaker 1: Did he offend you?
Speaker 3: Call it my mom?
Speaker 2: Making sure my like it was you know, he felt
Speaker 2: so but it was I remember it now, And then
Speaker 2: watching him do all of that in this episode, I.
Speaker 1: Was like, yeah, brought back this memory.
Speaker 3: They're good. They go everywhere you don't know.
Speaker 2: You think you're safe, Yeah, you're without out a distance,
Speaker 2: and it just gets goes right out there.
Speaker 4: What and why are you always getting hit in the face?
Speaker 4: Little Richard smacked you in the face. Bob kicked you
Speaker 4: in the face, Like.
Speaker 3: Was it your height? I don't know, it's no.
Speaker 2: I think it's probably in part due to my spatial
Speaker 2: awareness or lack thereof. Maybe I'm just a little like
Speaker 2: just in the wrong place at the wrong time, or
Speaker 2: I'm not paying attention to what the other person is doing.
Speaker 2: And I'm stepping into as they're doing that or something. Oh, okay,
Speaker 2: it happened Brooke. My friend Brooke elbowed me in the
Speaker 2: face the other night at Madonna as he turned to
Speaker 2: me and said, I'm having so much fun and literally
Speaker 2: just just cracked me right in the face. And he
Speaker 2: was like, I'm gonna sit down now.
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed, not at all.
Speaker 3: No, nope, I love it.
Speaker 2: But yeah, Bob Bob flailing his arms and legs in
Speaker 2: every possible direction and the faces.
Speaker 5: It was so.
Speaker 3: It made me laugh so hard because it was just
Speaker 3: so Bob.
Speaker 1: It was so Bob. He looked like one of those
Speaker 1: inflatables outside a.
Speaker 3: Car wash, flailing inflatable arm guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, because he looked about that tall too, because
Speaker 1: the limbs are so long and yeah yeah. So yeah.
Speaker 1: The girls aren't impressed, but the audience cheers very loudly
Speaker 1: for this performance.
Speaker 4: Steph is confused that was Elvis. Danny says yes, and
Speaker 4: DJ needs clarification.
Speaker 1: Pressley right. So next we are in Stephan DJ's room
Speaker 1: while the girls get ready for bed.
Speaker 4: Danny hurts his back when he tries bending down. I'm relatable, relatable.
Speaker 3: Right, you do something stupid you throw your back out.
Speaker 3: I hate when that happens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're always you're always hurt like in our forties.
Speaker 1: You're always hurting yourself.
Speaker 4: Is never a good story like oh, I was climbing
Speaker 4: a mountain to rescue some something, you know. No, it's
Speaker 4: always like, oh, no, I was bending down to empty
Speaker 4: the dishwasher and I threw my.
Speaker 3: Back right and yeah, exact barrass I sneezed too hard
Speaker 3: and I and my neck was done for a week.
Speaker 4: So the uncles are finally home, greeting the family with excitement.
Speaker 4: Dj tells them Danny helped her with karate, and Steph
Speaker 4: mentions that he helped her with Elvis too. Jesse questions Presley,
Speaker 4: Danny strikes a signature Elvis move, and then WinCE is
Speaker 4: in pain again.
Speaker 3: What what other Elvis is are they? I'm Costello.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a common name. It's the joke. The
Speaker 1: joke caster works. So joe haster work.
Speaker 4: Danny asks how work was, and Joey tells him the
Speaker 4: boss loved their ideas. Jesse announces they're gonna pitch their
Speaker 4: Hurry Mark commercial to the client and if it goes well,
Speaker 4: they may get full time jobs.
Speaker 3: Because that's how you. That's how you.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: See, if someone's worth hiring for a full time job
Speaker 2: is give them a project already.
Speaker 1: Here.
Speaker 3: See if you can blow this up, and if you don't,
Speaker 3: you've got a job.
Speaker 1: It's a test. Yeah, it's a test.
Speaker 2: Like it's usually they're like, here's a job, and then
Speaker 2: if you blow it, you lose the job.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's a little backwards.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have some questions about mister Mala Testa's hiring practices.
Speaker 3: But that's.
Speaker 1: He's a strange He's.
Speaker 3: He's a strange bird, is Yeah, he's.
Speaker 4: Definitely a strange bird. Danny tells them that's great. He
Speaker 4: asks the girls what they think, and DJ smiles, I
Speaker 4: think so, not seeming too convinced, and Steph smiles, I guess.
Speaker 4: Joey and Jesse tell the girls good night, and Danny
Speaker 4: follows them out and begins to compliment them on their achievement.
Speaker 1: You know, this is so amazing.
Speaker 4: When you guys first moved in here, you didn't even
Speaker 4: like each other, and now you might be working together
Speaker 4: full time. This is one of the happiest days of
Speaker 4: my life. He realizes what he just said and admits
Speaker 4: It's pretty sad, isn't it. Once they leave, Steph asks
Speaker 4: Dj if Jesse and Joey are really going to get
Speaker 4: a full time job, and DJ believes they will, considering
Speaker 4: how excited they were, and Steph wonders aloud, then who's
Speaker 4: gonna take care of us?
Speaker 1: No one?
Speaker 3: No one's taking care of me. You're home alone. Oh,
Speaker 3: there's going to be a movie about it, and it's
Speaker 3: gonna be great.
Speaker 1: Uh So we have a sad that takes us to
Speaker 1: a sad commercial break. Sure, sure.
Speaker 4: When we come back, we are back in the agency.
Speaker 4: Joey has his feet propped up on the desk at
Speaker 4: the agency and Jesse is guiding him through words of
Speaker 4: encouragement and concludes, any moment, our future is gonna come
Speaker 4: walking right through that door. Right then, in walks tiny
Speaker 4: little Michelle, saying hi people. Jesse runs to pick her
Speaker 4: up and asks where is Grandma. Irene strolls in and
Speaker 4: says she can't walk as fast as a two year old.
Speaker 4: She tells Jesse that she's dropping Michelle off, just like
Speaker 4: they agreed. Jesse hands Michelle over to Joey and asks
Speaker 4: Irene if she could please watch her for just a
Speaker 4: little longer. Irene tells him she can't and then gets
Speaker 4: distracted by the gorgeous office.
Speaker 1: She's very proud. She recalls a time when Jesse was
Speaker 1: just a little pumpkin running around in his diapers. He
Speaker 1: had the cutest little tushy and she reaches for his butt.
Speaker 4: She does this every time he gets a new job,
Speaker 4: and Jesse's scolds do not grab my tushy at work.
Speaker 1: And did you notice how John had his tie tied?
Speaker 5: That was.
Speaker 3: That was my first thing, was what is happening with
Speaker 3: his tie? It's not eighties around His national silliness was this?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was above his collar but still tied like
Speaker 1: a tide.
Speaker 3: It was an intentional choice.
Speaker 2: And it was a leather tie, by the way, a
Speaker 2: skinny leather that was worn outside of the I'm sure
Speaker 2: that some eighties MTV video made that super popular, and
Speaker 2: it was you know, like I don't know, flock of
Speaker 2: eagulls or something something, you.
Speaker 3: Know what I mean, like some just something.
Speaker 1: It must have been on trend.
Speaker 2: Robert Palmer, Now that was the yeah, I don't know anyway,
Speaker 2: something ridiculous.
Speaker 4: Well, if anyone listening has a picture of themselves with
Speaker 4: a tie like that from nineteen.
Speaker 2: Nine in the collar, but just chilling around your neck
Speaker 2: as though you missed the shirt.
Speaker 4: It looked like he hadn't gotten fully dressed, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: you're trying to impress he was.
Speaker 3: Covering a hickey. No, I don't know. I was just
Speaker 3: a stupid I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well with Jesse that would.
Speaker 3: Make sense, Like it was why put it as a
Speaker 3: choker right as and then have the shirt open?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was odd, you know, the desire to like
Speaker 2: things put the way that they're supposed to be.
Speaker 3: That was really that was.
Speaker 1: Hard for me. And then you're distracted for the rest
Speaker 1: of the scene just watching that.
Speaker 3: Just wanted to be like, can I think I can
Speaker 3: I just fix your tie? Can I just do this
Speaker 3: really really quick? Yeah?
Speaker 4: So Jesse quickly ushers Irene out of the door and
Speaker 4: notices from the doorway that the clients are coming. In
Speaker 4: an attempt to hide Michelle, Joey suggests that they play
Speaker 4: a little game of hide and seek. He guides her
Speaker 4: under the desk and hands her a cookie. Joey and
Speaker 4: Jesse grab each other and start to mentally prepare as
Speaker 4: mister Mellotesta opens the office door. Gladstone getsopolis, he says
Speaker 4: as he brings in Edna Foley, the vice president of
Speaker 4: marketing for Hurry Mart. Edna takes a seat on the
Speaker 4: couch and Jesse kicks off the pitch. He strums on
Speaker 4: the guitar, telling the story of a typical American family.
Speaker 4: Joey imitates each member of this pretend family they're portraying,
Speaker 4: called the Applebee's.
Speaker 3: Was this before or after the restaurant? I feel like
Speaker 3: it was before.
Speaker 1: Why would you name a family after a restaurant.
Speaker 3: I'm saying that I think they named the restaurant after
Speaker 3: this joke. No that's not true, that's not.
Speaker 1: This is the origin story.
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna rum with it in my imaginary fan
Speaker 3: fiction world that that the creator of that, whoever started Applebee's,
Speaker 3: was like, oh, the great American typical American fan the Applebee's.
Speaker 1: And that's yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, it all started all
Speaker 1: with this pitchka.
Speaker 3: This Joey and Jesse, Well it was it started.
Speaker 2: You know, Applebe's originally started as a Hurry Mart and
Speaker 2: uh and then it it progressed so it.
Speaker 1: Expanded into food service.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Jesse switches to the banjo to tell the story of
Speaker 1: the old General Store.
Speaker 3: I guess if you can play guitar, you can play
Speaker 3: a banjo. I mean, I can't play either, but man
Speaker 3: I didn't. I was impressed.
Speaker 4: It's it's strumming an instrument you can. Yeah, okay, he's
Speaker 4: musically inclined.
Speaker 1: Okay, sure, why not.
Speaker 4: At the sound of the banjo, Michelle creeps out from
Speaker 4: under the desk. Joey notices and tries to signal her
Speaker 4: back into hiding. Jesse redirects Joey back to the presentation,
Speaker 4: but Michelle has now fully stood up from under the desk,
Speaker 4: prompting Jesse to run over with a presentation card to
Speaker 4: cover her, and he continues with the story. Jesse then
Speaker 4: picks up Michelle and we can see her feet dangling
Speaker 4: underneath the presentation card. He looks to Joey for some help.
Speaker 4: Edna looks confused and turns to face mister Malatesta.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd be like, I'm excuse me, are they Is
Speaker 3: that a toddler that they're hiding?
Speaker 5: Why?
Speaker 3: What is happening?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 1: And I'd say anything, I'd have questions.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would be why Why are their
Speaker 4: legs dangling? Why are you hiding a small whose child?
Speaker 3: Is it right? We're right, like yeah, anyway, it's just
Speaker 3: why is she here? Yeah, it just seemed like it
Speaker 3: was really sort of like, oh, that's it happens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was very sickcommy. That is a very sitcom
Speaker 1: right there. As Jesse continues, Michelle says from behind the
Speaker 1: card move. Edna questions the sound, and Jesse adds Michelle
Speaker 1: into the story card.
Speaker 3: It's it's nothing.
Speaker 5: It's nothing attention to what's happening behind the curtain, like well,
Speaker 5: you know, he's trying to think on his feet and
Speaker 5: he's like, oh, hey here right, this is this is
Speaker 5: a he's like a stray cow wanders by.
Speaker 3: It's hilarious, by the.
Speaker 1: Way, at the Hurry Mart, like this is this is hysterical.
Speaker 4: So Jesse and Joey end the pitch with their jingle
Speaker 4: Hurry Mart the Great American General Store. Edna tells mister
Speaker 4: mala Testa that she's not sure how the cow fits in,
Speaker 4: but she loves the concept. She seals the deal with
Speaker 4: mister Malitesta, and he informs the boys they'll be working
Speaker 4: for him full time.
Speaker 2: I mean just verbal agreements and handshakes, making deals all.
Speaker 1: Over the place.
Speaker 3: No, who needs a contract, he needs a contract? Who
Speaker 3: needs questions? Who needs to know where this child came from?
Speaker 1: Da?
Speaker 3: I love it, It's great.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: If I was mister Malatesta, I would be second guessing
Speaker 4: my decision, like wait, wait, these guys are hiding a child.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in office under a desk, I'd be like, yeah,
Speaker 3: I have I would certainly have questions. But again, you know,
Speaker 3: the boss is like, just concerned with the bottom line.
Speaker 1: Just this is that's true.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: So the boys now have a strategy meeting to get
Speaker 4: to So mister Malatesta states, you can put the stray
Speaker 4: cow back in her barn. Jesse hesitantly tells him that
Speaker 4: Michelle isn't a stray cow. He says, Joey and I
Speaker 4: have a baby. Their boss pauses for a second. Hey,
Speaker 4: your personal lives are none of my business. He exits,
Speaker 4: and Michelle says, dag nab it dag that nabbot dag.
Speaker 1: Nabbot was hilarious. She delivered. That's also because I can,
Speaker 1: I can.
Speaker 3: I also know that.
Speaker 2: Right before that was Adria saying on the other side
Speaker 2: of the camera, a ridiculous, dag nabbot, like totally over
Speaker 2: exaggerated in order to get them to do it, and
Speaker 2: that I can picture it in my head and that's
Speaker 2: it's fun and.
Speaker 1: Silly, totally.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Whatever you see, Michelle, do just know that Adria was
Speaker 4: doing it three times biggigger.
Speaker 3: Right on the other side of the camera. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: would be like and would just stop sometimes ago, Oh
Speaker 3: my god. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So next we're in the living room, Joey and Jesse
Speaker 4: toast a glass of champagne, making a sour face after
Speaker 4: the first sip. That's the last time I buy champagne
Speaker 4: and a can.
Speaker 1: Oh, Joey steaks got.
Speaker 2: Maybe they bought it from the hurry mart can the
Speaker 2: champagne and a six dollars loaf of bread, which may or.
Speaker 3: May not be a good deal. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what are I selling in this hurry moment? I'm
Speaker 1: not I'm not sure about this place. Danny walks in
Speaker 1: through the front door with a huge smile on his face.
Speaker 1: He tells them they missed a major banner Tanner Day.
Speaker 1: He introduces dj as a new Green belt holder, asking
Speaker 1: her to show the boys some of her moves. She
Speaker 1: gets embarrassed and waves her hand, saying hi yah hiya
Speaker 1: instead of hi yah, it's hiya.
Speaker 4: Danny introduces Steph as the Queen Bee of rock and roll.
Speaker 4: After she won her talent show, she struts in wearing
Speaker 4: a full blown Elvis costume. Wig included I.
Speaker 2: Did not remember this What I did not remember? I
Speaker 2: was like, I was as shocked as anyone. When I
Speaker 2: walked through, I was like, what in the wig is happening?
Speaker 1: It was glorious. When I say, I laughed for a
Speaker 1: full three minutes.
Speaker 2: I and then like trying to have like serious lines
Speaker 2: after that in an Elvis wig, I just it was
Speaker 2: I couldn't.
Speaker 3: Seriously, I couldn't. I couldn't.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 3: I was so I was like, how do I not
Speaker 3: I remember out of your mind this, you know?
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess maybe had they dressed me like
Speaker 2: Elvis and flowed me around the living room, it might
Speaker 2: have stuck a little bit more.
Speaker 3: But I did not remember my my Elvis costume.
Speaker 1: Oh it was. It was glorious.
Speaker 4: Even Michael, my boyfriend, who does not watch Full House,
Speaker 4: he was rolling at Oh it was so And you're
Speaker 4: so confident, like you're just like where You're like, yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm wearing this costume.
Speaker 1: What's the big deal? Like you're not even self conscious
Speaker 1: or like, you know, you were very confident.
Speaker 3: I probably was like, this looks awesome. I looked great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was probably very I loved wearing costume. I
Speaker 2: was probably very into the costume.
Speaker 3: And trip be told I'd wear that costume today. You should?
Speaker 3: Is what's a wig?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 3: I was looking at myself. I was like, oh, so
Speaker 3: that's what I look like with short black hair, you know.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, it was There's just not enough
Speaker 1: words in the English language to just describe the site
Speaker 1: to behold?
Speaker 3: And was it in like a small owl on the
Speaker 3: back of my jumpsuit instead of an eagle because you know,
Speaker 3: usually I thought it looked like a little owl or something,
Speaker 3: a little owl.
Speaker 1: I don't remember that it should have been a bee
Speaker 1: because wasn't this the honey Bee Town show?
Speaker 3: I could have could Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, if I'm sewing my own Elvis costume the
Speaker 2: night before, I definitely should have made bee out of it.
Speaker 3: What was I thinking?
Speaker 1: Yeah, missed opportunity. That's okay.
Speaker 4: So Stephanie says, thank you boys, I'm gonna buy every
Speaker 4: one of you a Cadillac. Jesse runs over to give
Speaker 4: her a kiss. Steph tells him that she was a
Speaker 4: hunka honka burn and love, and strikes.
Speaker 1: An Elvis pose with a yah, yeah, you're confident. You're
Speaker 1: just oozing confidence.
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 1: You're selling it. I can't half ass a costume like that. No.
Speaker 3: I was like, look a minute, I'm going for it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So Joey apologizes for missing the day, but Danny assures
Speaker 4: him that he got it all on tape. Jesse breaks
Speaker 4: their own good news and tells the family they landed
Speaker 4: full time jobs. DJ and Steph can't help but look disappointed.
Speaker 4: This wasn't quite the reaction the boys were looking for.
Speaker 4: They ask for hugs and some congratulations, but DJ says,
Speaker 4: how could you guys do this to us? With Steph
Speaker 4: adding we're going to be all alone?
Speaker 3: I couldn't take myself seriously with that line though, with the.
Speaker 1: Whig, right, you know, it's such a sad line delivery.
Speaker 3: Going to be all alone. I was like, you look ridiculous, right,
Speaker 3: I was. No one's taking you seriously. It was hilarious.
Speaker 1: Yes, they should have had you or Jesse take the
Speaker 1: take the wig off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then you know what my hair would have
Speaker 2: looked like underneath. You know, the wig never looks good
Speaker 2: when you take it right. Yeah, So, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 2: I actually liked that. Steph was just like I this
Speaker 2: is who I am right now.
Speaker 1: Now she's sad and sad.
Speaker 3: I mean, wouldn't be the first time. I mean maybe
Speaker 3: for Steph, but not for someone in an Elphis cost
Speaker 3: in true.
Speaker 4: So Danny jumps into a sure stuff in DJ, they
Speaker 4: will always be taken care of, reminding them how much
Speaker 4: their uncles love them. The guys mentioned they'll see them
Speaker 4: every day after work, on the weekends and on federal holidays.
Speaker 4: Stuph tells them that it won't be the same. They're
Speaker 4: gonna miss the whole rest of their lives. DJ and
Speaker 4: Steph walk over to give Jesse and Joey a big hug,
Speaker 4: telling them how much they'll miss them.
Speaker 1: Oh, the guilt, the guilt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but also like, somebody's got to pay the rent
Speaker 3: in his house mm hmm. Jesse's Yeah, an Joey's now
Speaker 3: got a gigantic basement apartment. He'd be paying three thousand
Speaker 3: dollars a month for that, So it's you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of practical but I do.
Speaker 3: It's the heartbreak.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're definitely tunguing on the heart strings here, They're
Speaker 4: not really, they don't. The writing doesn't lend himself to
Speaker 4: talking about the practicality of having working parents who have
Speaker 4: to pay the rent and you gotta find childcare and
Speaker 4: a car.
Speaker 3: I would be really bummed though, if if I missed
Speaker 3: my kid dressed up like Elvis.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just for.
Speaker 3: The future pictures alone, I believe I really wish I
Speaker 3: was there for that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can start a slide show at your wedding
Speaker 4: of all the exact right childhood, all the embarrassing costumes.
Speaker 4: So next door in Joey's room, Joey is sitting down
Speaker 4: as Jesse Pace is behind him. Jesse begins to wonder
Speaker 4: if they didn't consider everything before taking this job. Joey
Speaker 4: has divided red and black checkers on the table as
Speaker 4: a visual for reasons to keep the job versus reasons
Speaker 4: to quit the job. Jesse points out one major black
Speaker 4: checker is we get a lot of great things out
Speaker 4: of raising these kids. I never thought i'd say this before,
Speaker 4: but I dig being mister mom. Joey adds, I never
Speaker 4: thought i'd say this, but you look smashing in an apron.
Speaker 4: Jesse lays a black checker on one side of the
Speaker 4: weight scale, saying it's one good reason not to take
Speaker 4: the job. Joey mentions how the job pays more money
Speaker 4: than they've ever seen, and he adds a red checker
Speaker 4: to one side of the scale.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they check.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh, very important.
Speaker 4: They add two more red checkers for being able to
Speaker 4: write entire campaigns and having an amazing office. Well, it
Speaker 4: looks like we're going to work, Jesse says. He starts
Speaker 4: to walk away, but then slowly turns around. He forgot
Speaker 4: about his music. If they take this job, there won't
Speaker 4: be any time to write or play gigs. He tells
Speaker 4: Joey to add a black checker. This makes Joey realize
Speaker 4: that he would have no time to work on his comedy.
Speaker 4: Another black checker is added.
Speaker 3: Jesse takes comedians never have day jobs. Ever, they don't.
Speaker 3: That's not a thing.
Speaker 1: Right, They support themselves.
Speaker 3: They solely on themselves, solely on their comedy. Yeah, that's
Speaker 3: most any comedian will tell you that. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Jesse takes a seat next to Joey and asks him
Speaker 4: to really think about this.
Speaker 1: Are we ready to give up our dreams for this.
Speaker 1: Neither one of them wants to give up their dream,
Speaker 1: but they've had more success in the last three months
Speaker 1: of advertising than all of those years in music and comedy.
Speaker 1: They add a rent checkeroo.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really, it's difficult, it is.
Speaker 4: Joey tells Jesse how life is like a salad bar.
Speaker 4: You have all these great choices, but you can't help
Speaker 4: but think to yourself, how often are they changing those beats?
Speaker 1: Valid thought that was. It started off great. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a good analogy, and then I
Speaker 1: was like, no, that's just Joey.
Speaker 2: I knew from the beginning. He was like, oh boy, yeah,
Speaker 2: where is this guy? It is a question that has
Speaker 2: crossed my mind.
Speaker 3: How often are they changing this beat?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I feel like all the soup plantations kind of went
Speaker 4: out of business.
Speaker 2: With Covid Plantation went out of business, although it apparently
Speaker 2: a new a new one has come back, and there
Speaker 2: was lines for Block. Really it was soup and Fresh,
Speaker 2: Sup and Fresh oh yeah yeah, and like all the
Speaker 2: diehard Sup Plantation people went because it's like a like
Speaker 2: an exact replica of the restaurant.
Speaker 1: Wow, my kids loved Sup plantation and he.
Speaker 2: Buffaced somewhere in Riverside, and there's soup and fresh and
Speaker 2: you can stand in line for three blocks for.
Speaker 1: Wow sup plantation.
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not that committed, but I'll send Felicity. She
Speaker 4: can drive down to all send Felicity, she can take
Speaker 4: herself soup and fresh. Danny walks down the stairs carrying Michelle.
Speaker 4: She wanted to say good night. Danny holds Michelle towards
Speaker 4: Joey so he can give her a kiss. He gets
Speaker 4: emotional and adds a black checker. Danny does the same
Speaker 4: for Jesse. He sighs and adds a black checker as
Speaker 4: well well. Danny insists he didn't bring Michelle downstairs to
Speaker 4: make them feel guilty. He leaves the room, and Jesse
Speaker 4: and Joey feel conflicted.
Speaker 1: So hard, so hard.
Speaker 3: And Michelle looked like a little ball of cotton candy.
Speaker 1: She was so cuy.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, she had some really cute dresses in
Speaker 4: this episode. So back at the ad agency, Joey and
Speaker 4: Jesse are waiting in their office as mister Malatesta comes in. Hey, boys,
Speaker 4: you wanted to see me about something. Joey admits they're
Speaker 4: having second thoughts. Jesse points out that their job is
Speaker 4: to come up with brilliant ideas, but it shouldn't matter where.
Speaker 1: They come up with these ideas.
Speaker 4: Mister Malitesta is confused and asks is this a trick question.
Speaker 4: Joey jumps in, saying it would solve a lot of
Speaker 4: their problems if they could work from home. Mister Malatesta
Speaker 4: begins to think and suggest he could hire them on
Speaker 4: a project by project basis.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the Full House started work from
Speaker 3: home movement.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would just like to say, yeah, and look
Speaker 1: where we are now, how many people are.
Speaker 3: Working And that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, when it was such a foreign idea, people are like,
Speaker 2: what are you talking about? Jesse and Joey were like, look,
Speaker 2: I can be funny and do my work at home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so watch this.
Speaker 2: It's true now and now it's totally commonplace. All started
Speaker 2: right here on Full House, Ladies. Well, yeah, the Full
Speaker 2: House started a lot of mister Maltesta. Mister Malatesta here
Speaker 2: really was a pioneer in the work from house.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great it's a great solution. They only
Speaker 4: need to come in for the pitches, but they can
Speaker 4: do all of.
Speaker 3: Their save your money on the office. Yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 3: for sure, mister Mala Testa can take that lovely office.
Speaker 1: That felt like a boss's office. To be honest with
Speaker 1: that view that yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Was, Yeah, it's a great view.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 3: I was surprised. So yeay, he gets he gets an offer.
Speaker 4: Mister Malatesta decides, well, I guess it'd be best for
Speaker 4: everyone concerned if you guys got out of here to
Speaker 4: go home and go to work. He laughs and tells
Speaker 4: them he loves them.
Speaker 1: It's a deal.
Speaker 4: Just as mister Malatesta tries to exit the office, Danny
Speaker 4: yell's surprise while holding a bouquet of flowers as the
Speaker 4: girls stand behind him. Jesse starts the introductions and mister
Speaker 4: Malatesta interrupts, remember your personal lives are none of my business,
Speaker 4: Jesse or not, Jesse. Danny and the kids brought some
Speaker 4: plants for their new office, and Jesse tells them to
Speaker 4: pack them up because they'll be working from home. The
Speaker 4: girls erupt in cheers and hugs. Dj asks, did you
Speaker 4: guys quit your jobs for us? Jesse explains their arrangement
Speaker 4: of working at home. Steph looks at Danny. Daddy can
Speaker 4: you do your TV show at home, and he sadly
Speaker 4: tells her no, because the crew people would scuff up
Speaker 4: their floors and they would.
Speaker 3: Is before reality TV, Yeah for sure.
Speaker 4: Uh. Joey and Jesse bring everyone over to the balcony
Speaker 4: that connects to their office. They all walk outside to
Speaker 4: look at the view, and once the entire family is
Speaker 4: out there, Michelle slams the door shut. The family begs
Speaker 4: for her to open the door. She ignores them and
Speaker 4: climbs onto a chair, grabbing a magazine. And that is
Speaker 4: the show not so obvious missing panes of glass at all.
Speaker 4: So it was so totally not obvious that there was
Speaker 4: no glass glass.
Speaker 2: The best word is I start knocking, but I'm knocking
Speaker 2: on just the metal part. Oh funny, because there's no
Speaker 2: pain of glass.
Speaker 3: To knock on, And like now I'm like, why, just
Speaker 3: don't even draw attention to that, Like don't, But.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it was they can't have the panes of
Speaker 4: glass because of practice sticking our heads through the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4: It was well between that and the background, which is
Speaker 4: a beautiful view but obviously a very very fake back of.
Speaker 2: Some beautiful lithograph of It's a beautiful ancient tapestry that
Speaker 2: was hanging and stitched together.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, bless the the set designers that painted
Speaker 3: that stuff.
Speaker 2: It looks they're beautiful. But yeah, now you can see
Speaker 2: it and you're like, that's nothing's moving. That's the strangest,
Speaker 2: flattest light I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: Thing is moving. There's no clouds, there's no like yeah this.
Speaker 2: Well, there's never clouds in San Francisco unless it's a
Speaker 2: particular episode about Carl the Fog. Yes, yes, Otherwise, clear
Speaker 2: blue skies like Eddie San Francisco.
Speaker 1: All the time.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 1: Oh man, So this wasn't my favorite episode, but that's okay.
Speaker 2: It well, it went a long way in explaining how
Speaker 2: three adults and three children can continue living in a
Speaker 2: house and eating food while also watching the kids and
Speaker 2: continuing up with the hijinks at home.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so no, it's it's true. I wish they
Speaker 1: had I do wish they had talked a little bit
Speaker 1: more about like the practicalities of this, like yeah, we
Speaker 1: need we need jobs to pay for this home that
Speaker 1: you live in, or yeah, it's it's sort of.
Speaker 2: That lesson like to you know that like you know,
Speaker 2: sometimes it's sort of like I always telling my kids, like,
Speaker 2: there's the half twos and the want tos, right, and
Speaker 2: you you know you usually have.
Speaker 3: To take care of the half twos before you get
Speaker 3: to do the want too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was not really a discussion about that, and
Speaker 2: I love that just sort of as a throwaway line
Speaker 2: at the end when STEP's like, hey, can you do
Speaker 2: your thing at home?
Speaker 3: Danny says no because they'll scuff up the floors, and
Speaker 3: not everybody's job works like that. Let's go.
Speaker 2: Like it was just such a like it was just
Speaker 2: it was funny, like it was such a you know, yeah,
Speaker 2: don't go buy bugging your parents about working from home kids,
Speaker 2: because not everyone's job can do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's true, It's true. It was.
Speaker 2: It was. As I mentioned, there were tons of kids
Speaker 2: after this episode that went home. We're like, oh, Jesse
Speaker 2: and Joey work from home, Like, yeah, you work from home?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I wish it was a little too clean or tidy
Speaker 4: of a of a solution. I mean it was great,
Speaker 4: but like they I wish they'd gone over different options
Speaker 4: like working parents do, Like how do you get your
Speaker 4: kids to and from school? Do you have to do
Speaker 4: a carpool, right, you know, who's going to babysit the kids,
Speaker 4: who's going to help with their homework? Like, there's a
Speaker 4: lot of practical things, not just this emotional guilt that
Speaker 4: working parents feel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's yeah exactly. I think that it felt kind
Speaker 2: of like the only option was like do they care
Speaker 2: about the kids or not? And it's like, well, that's
Speaker 2: not the that's not the choice. Really, that's not I mean,
Speaker 2: that's not even the question.
Speaker 3: Is.
Speaker 2: The question is like how how can I take care
Speaker 2: of them and get them where they need to be
Speaker 2: while also providing food?
Speaker 4: And yeah, it's not so black and white. There's a
Speaker 4: lot of nuance, right, and there's deception.
Speaker 2: Well right, I'm I'm going to venture to say that
Speaker 2: nuance was not something that was able to fit in
Speaker 2: twenty two minutes of six.
Speaker 3: True.
Speaker 2: Very true, although h terribly misogynistic jokes were so there's
Speaker 2: always that you yeah, I know I was a little
Speaker 2: I know I was, but you know what, let's that's
Speaker 2: how far. I'd like to think that we've sort of
Speaker 2: come now in the realization that like all of the
Speaker 2: jokes about like being mister mom or working mom or
Speaker 2: like you know that they flag now was like, that's
Speaker 2: so unrealistic. Every you know, it's working parents like, but
Speaker 2: you know, so, I will say in that regard, I'm
Speaker 2: it's nice that we even notice a like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: you wouldn't even think like that really.
Speaker 3: Did, or most of us wouldn't. But it's just a
Speaker 3: nice little window back into the eighties.
Speaker 1: Yeah to go.
Speaker 2: And I will say one of the things that I
Speaker 2: wrote down was I love Irene because there's the line
Speaker 2: that she says when she drops Michelle off and Jesse says,
Speaker 2: can't you watch her for another couple hours?
Speaker 3: Her response is, no, I've got to go to school.
Speaker 1: Good for her, Good for her?
Speaker 2: And I was like, yes, Irene having boundaries with these
Speaker 2: men who are like Irena, she's the only one, the
Speaker 2: only one. Yeah. She's like, look, I'm you stop it, you,
Speaker 2: I'm done, And she was like, no, I gotta go
Speaker 2: to school.
Speaker 3: And I literally wrote down, I love Irene.
Speaker 4: I love her, Yeah because she I love her character.
Speaker 4: I love the actress, like she's just such a force
Speaker 4: and she's fantastic.
Speaker 3: She was yeah, did you uh did you have any
Speaker 3: everywhere you look moment?

Speaker 3: be that white? But like, you know, what the what
Speaker 3: the balloon? I don't know how I did that.
Speaker 1: I was very excited about this. This everywhere you look.
Speaker 2: I guess apparently they were like balloons. Yeah, no, it
Speaker 2: was so I was like, why do we have to
Speaker 2: see that much of the set in order to get
Speaker 2: but who knows?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the things you.
Speaker 2: Can do now where you can like you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: we could just digitally punch it in and cut that
Speaker 2: out so you don't see like that wasn't it.
Speaker 3: You were like, well, it's there, that's what we're doing.
Speaker 4: So I love about eighties and nineties sitcoms is that

Speaker 3: shots with the with the with the like caught the
Speaker 3: edge like that of the sand not.

Speaker 4: but I love how in the the guy's office at
Speaker 4: the ad agency there's this.
Speaker 1: Clunky, small, clunky computer, but it's not on the desk.
Speaker 4: It's like in the back off to the side by
Speaker 4: a potted plant, on just a random table. And I'm like,
Speaker 4: today you would have a massive computer screen and the
Speaker 4: computer would be right on your desk, front and center.
Speaker 2: Well, and everyone would have one, like you know, it
Speaker 2: wouldn't be one office computer. Yeah that you know with
Speaker 2: the green flashing MS dows thing or you know that
Speaker 2: you could play Oregon Trail on.

Speaker 2: like the glass tile block behind the thing, and the
Speaker 2: paint colors, the wall art behind Jesse and Joey in
Speaker 2: that first scene is so it's just so eighties Amy

Speaker 4: real professional office it's going to look like, right.
Speaker 3: I guess, I don't know. It was just but it
Speaker 3: was like it was just very eighties, eighties. I appreciated that.
