Speaker 1: I Am all in again. Oh that's just you.
Speaker 2: I Am All in Town Meeting with Suzanne French and
Speaker 2: Tara suit An iHeartRadio podcast. Hey guys, welcome back to
Speaker 2: another episode of I'm All in Town Meeting with myself,
Speaker 2: Tara and Susanne.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: Hello.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna be talking about Season one, episode seventeen,
Speaker 2: The Breakup, Part two, which aired on March fifteenth, two
Speaker 2: thousand and one. And before I get into it, Juzane,
Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but I like to read
Speaker 2: some of the comments because there are things that like
Speaker 2: we don't even catch and other people catch and that's
Speaker 2: kind of the joy of this show is like everyone's involved,
Speaker 2: you know. But I do want to give a little
Speaker 2: just a heads up to people listening, because there were
Speaker 2: a lot of people saying, like, why are you nitpicking?
Speaker 2: Like the boom mic and this and that, and.
Speaker 1: That's the point of town meeting.
Speaker 2: So when we did the recap with Scott the first
Speaker 2: time around, Suzanne was the one who would point all
Speaker 2: those out and people wanted more. And when we're doing
Speaker 2: it this time around, obviously Scott is still doing a
Speaker 2: recap with a guest every week, but Suzanne and I
Speaker 2: took on be nitpicky for lack of a better word,
Speaker 2: on the show. And it's not us pulling the show apart.
Speaker 2: It's us noticing things that fans who watch over.
Speaker 1: And over again start to notice.
Speaker 2: So just for the people who aren't fully aware of
Speaker 2: why we do town meeting, that's kind of the gist
Speaker 2: of it. But yeah, and we have so much fun
Speaker 2: doing it, and like, I don't know about you, but
Speaker 2: I watched the show in a different light when we
Speaker 2: talk about these things, Like, I mean, I still enjoy it, right,
Speaker 2: but sometimes I'm like, I feel like I need to
Speaker 2: watch it twice because I'm like there are things I
Speaker 2: miss and sometimes I'm like, I didn't see anything.
Speaker 1: And we jump on and Susanne's like, we there was this, this, this,
Speaker 1: and this, but that's the beauty of it.
Speaker 2: And then we even like see the comments and sorry
Speaker 2: if we see the comments kind of late. Obviously we
Speaker 2: record a different day every week, so we might not
Speaker 2: be able to catch your comments. But just wanted to
Speaker 2: give that little little heads up as we jump into
Speaker 2: this episode that I really liked.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I I totally agree with you, and but
Speaker 3: we do appreciate the feedback like we do, like we're
Speaker 3: seeing everybody's opinion, and I did see one comment that
Speaker 3: somebody thought we were too negative all the time, and
Speaker 3: that kind of made me feel bad because I love
Speaker 3: this show and I still, you know, I still will
Speaker 3: put it on and just sit and watch it. Like,
Speaker 3: so we're not meaning to come across in a negative flight.
Speaker 3: We really do love the show and that's that's why
Speaker 3: we're doing this.
Speaker 2: So yeah, but also when you talk to your friends
Speaker 2: about a show, like, you know, there's shows that are
Speaker 2: airing great example, I love the show Traders that just
Speaker 2: wrapped up, but my friends I will text about it
Speaker 2: after every episode each week and we're like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I didn't like this person on it, this episode, this, And.
Speaker 1: It's just a conversation. So we're not being negative, we're
Speaker 1: just having a detail. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2: Well I'm gonna start that that clown pillow was right
Speaker 2: there in the opening.
Speaker 3: See it was like an actual clown sitting on the
Speaker 3: couch with them, Like it was right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't even try to hide. It wasn't even
Speaker 2: like half minute. It was like almost fully in the shot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and kind of in an alarming way. It's like,
Speaker 3: I don't want to really look at this clown that much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my eyes kind of went towards the clown more
Speaker 2: than I was looking at Rory. Oh, but I guess
Speaker 2: back to just I mean, sorry I jumped right in.
Speaker 2: But overall, I mean, I really liked this episode for
Speaker 2: many reasons.
Speaker 1: But how did you feel?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I liked this episode. Two. I really enjoyed it. There
Speaker 3: was it had kind of a lot of things that
Speaker 3: I like. It had town stuff, it had you know,
Speaker 3: chilting stuff, It had some Rachel stuff. It was great.
Speaker 3: I thought it was a great It was Max stuff,
Speaker 3: had some Max stuff. There was a lot happening in
Speaker 3: this episode.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we even got like Bebet miss Patty
Speaker 2: the diner, like really like everything it was all.
Speaker 3: It was great. And I love how they tied the
Speaker 3: two stories together, like Rory's wallowing and then that make
Speaker 3: a r is not wallowing, makes Laura I realize she
Speaker 3: never really dealt with the Max thing in her own brain,
Speaker 3: and so I just I liked how they tied the
Speaker 3: two storylines together. It was great.
Speaker 2: Yeah I did too, And we mentioned this before, but
Speaker 2: I'm a Max Medina fan. I don't remember you not
Speaker 2: really right, not so much.
Speaker 3: It's a little weird to meet the teacher aspect of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I guess the teacher aspect, yes, but
Speaker 2: I think as Max, I really like him for Laura
Speaker 2: la If. We took the teacher student element out of it,
Speaker 2: and so in this episode I was like, I hate
Speaker 2: that I like this, like you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I was like, mad and myself are really liking that
Speaker 2: she went over there and now they're having sex? You know?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it had it did have kind of a booty
Speaker 3: call kind of.
Speaker 1: Oh what else was she going over there for?
Speaker 3: To check exactly exactly? And I mentioned this when I
Speaker 3: did the recap with Scott, But she clearly went over
Speaker 3: there kind of with that on her mind, because otherwise
Speaker 3: she could have just waited until the next day to
Speaker 3: call him. But she went out of her way to
Speaker 3: go borrow Suki's car to drive over there, like she clearly,
Speaker 3: which by.
Speaker 2: The way, this is the first time we saw Suki's
Speaker 2: house so far in the show, right.
Speaker 3: Oh maybe, yeah, I didn't even think about that, but
Speaker 3: you're right, because.
Speaker 1: When she walked up them, like who's porch is this?
Speaker 2: Like, it took me a second because I'm like, that's
Speaker 2: not hers, and then yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Didn't even think about that, but I think you're right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we've obviously seen it, knowing have watched
Speaker 2: the show, but I think for this, I think for
Speaker 2: this season in the series so far. Yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 2: Suki's hair, well, Melissa McCarthy's hair looked a little bright redder.
Speaker 3: It was. It looked like she had she just.
Speaker 1: Got her hair done.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she had just had it done. I thought it
Speaker 3: was cute though. Speaking of hair, Wlaane's hair at the
Speaker 3: party was adorable with the curl.
Speaker 2: Good. Also her whole outfit, the whole outfit, the skirt
Speaker 2: with the tights and the red.
Speaker 3: It was you know.
Speaker 2: And then the whole time I was thinking of the party,
Speaker 2: I'm like, what did they say that missus Kim to
Speaker 2: let her go?
Speaker 3: I know we were wondering that because we had just
Speaker 3: been through this. If they told her the truth, she
Speaker 3: would have said no. So did they lie to her?
Speaker 3: Because there was the whole episode with the movies about
Speaker 3: this is what happens when you lie to missus Kim.
Speaker 3: How did they how did they pull that off?
Speaker 2: I don't know, but well, and a couple episodes ago
Speaker 2: that whole about Lune.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so so I don't know how they pulled off,
Speaker 3: but it was good to see Lane kind of cutting
Speaker 3: loose and having fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah. And also I guess jumping to the party.
Speaker 2: Those background actors were a little older than high schooler.
Speaker 2: There was like two grown ass adults walking in the
Speaker 2: background at one point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3: I was wondering. I kept like scanning the background to
Speaker 3: see if there was like any familiar faces, and I did.
Speaker 1: There wasn't, but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it it they there were definitely some you know,
Speaker 3: maybe teenager.
Speaker 1: Was yeah, of reach.
Speaker 2: Our producer Jackie just asked us, did you notice that
Speaker 2: this party location is used several times in the series.
Speaker 1: I did not where what else was he used for.
Speaker 3: I The only one I know of is it's also
Speaker 3: Logan's parents' house.
Speaker 1: Mmmm, okay, we're jumping.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see, well, it'll we'll mention it again for
Speaker 3: five seasons. That's the only one I know of. I
Speaker 3: don't know if Jackie has something else up per sleeve,
Speaker 3: but that was the only one. There was also the
Speaker 3: outside of the Gilmour realm. It was the ballroom in
Speaker 3: Princess Diaries.
Speaker 1: I think, Oh my gosh, yes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the Johiny mansion in.
Speaker 1: La Oh God.
Speaker 2: I love Princess Diaries, which, by the way, brings us
Speaker 2: back to we've mentioned before that the Chiltern uniform is
Speaker 2: very like the uniform in Princess Diaries.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like that tie together. Yeah, but I did. I
Speaker 1: was really proud of Rory for actually, you know what.
Speaker 2: I was proud of Rory, and I was proud of
Speaker 2: Laurai in the sense of, like Laura I really just
Speaker 2: was trying to make her daughter happy and feel better
Speaker 2: in this episode, and she's like, let's go do this list,
Speaker 2: and they bought god knows what crap, you know, like
Speaker 2: throughout the town to make her feel better.
Speaker 1: And then Rory was like, I'm going to get.
Speaker 2: Out of the house, and it just I was it
Speaker 2: was a they were more grown up than they've been
Speaker 2: acting that we've seen lately.
Speaker 1: So I really liked it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and and you can see that. I thought I
Speaker 3: felt like Loralai was maybe a little more like to
Speaker 3: your point, she's a little more motherly motherly, yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: because she's she's trying to kind of nudge Rory in
Speaker 3: the direction of you know, wallowing is part of the process.
Speaker 3: You have to do it, and you know, I she
Speaker 3: was trying to support Rory but also like trying to
Speaker 3: prevent her from you know having a you know, derailment.
Speaker 3: But yeah, so I thought it was a good Uh,
Speaker 3: it was a good episode from that aspect, and then
Speaker 3: it all kind of came full circle at the end
Speaker 3: when Rory's like got that giant tub.
Speaker 2: Of ice, the biggest tub of Ben and Jerry's I have.
Speaker 1: I don't does that even exist?
Speaker 2: Like did they like make that, Like.
Speaker 3: I I don't know. I've never seen it here and
Speaker 3: maybe that's like a Vermont thing.
Speaker 2: But is it like when you go to Ben and Jerry's,
Speaker 2: like you know, like in the like freezer when they
Speaker 2: scoop out, like is it one of those.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, but I would I would take
Speaker 3: some chunky Monkey if it came.
Speaker 2: In that sun. Right, Oh, Chucky ice cream sounds good
Speaker 2: right now. I know, by the way, it's freezing in
Speaker 2: LA when we're recording, but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't had ice cream in a while. It
Speaker 3: sounds good.
Speaker 2: I went to you know what I really like, Sorry,
Speaker 2: off topic. I love a good thrifties ice cream. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I love chocolate malted crunch, and I went to CVS.
Speaker 1: Uh no, sorry.
Speaker 2: I went to Ride Aid the other day because I
Speaker 2: needed to pick up medication, and I was like, you
Speaker 2: know what, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1: Get some chocolate malted crunch.
Speaker 3: My favorite was minschip. That was always my.
Speaker 2: Oh I do like a good minschip too, but I
Speaker 2: feel like minschip by like on a cone. I can't
Speaker 2: just like scoop it out. I feel like I need
Speaker 2: the full experience.
Speaker 3: And I'm old enough to remember getting thrifty ice cream
Speaker 3: at thrifty When Thrifty.
Speaker 1: There was a Thristy store. Oh no, I'm just sorry.
Speaker 3: Thrift was a drug store chain and they eventually got
Speaker 3: bought out by a CVS. But but yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: It was a drug store chain.
Speaker 2: It was. I didn't wait, but was it? There were
Speaker 2: there a lot in Los Angeles?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Oh okay.
Speaker 3: In LA we had we had Thrifty and we had
Speaker 3: save On were the two big save on.
Speaker 2: I do remember save On, yeah, because I lived right
Speaker 2: by a Savon. And then now it's ride Aid and CVS.
Speaker 2: Is't Friday going bankrupt?
Speaker 1: Right in?
Speaker 3: Yeah? They went They sold a bunch of stores to Walgreens.
Speaker 3: And then I think they're eventually closing the rest.
Speaker 2: I can't keep track of it, and someone is screaming
Speaker 2: at their podcast episode right now, like, you guys are
Speaker 2: just going off the rails. I know.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: By the way, Jackie said, there's.
Speaker 2: A whole Reddit thread about the tub of ice cream
Speaker 2: from this episode, so we're not alone and talking about this.
Speaker 3: So one thing I noticed. We've talked before about how
Speaker 3: time just seems to operate in a different dimension in
Speaker 3: Stars Hall, But one thing I noticed. There was a
Speaker 3: whole scene about it being six am when Larela I
Speaker 3: was in bed and Rory's waking her up. But did
Speaker 3: you notice that when they were when right after Luke
Speaker 3: and Dean were fighting outside the diner, the clock on
Speaker 3: the street said it was like six twenty five, Like,
Speaker 3: how did all of that happen in twenty five minutes?
Speaker 2: But see, I was going to call out that when
Speaker 2: they walked into the diner and it was like filled
Speaker 2: to the brim, they were like, oh, it's the six
Speaker 2: am crowd.
Speaker 1: I'm like, but you woke up at six.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So somehow they woke up, got dressed, had the
Speaker 3: whole conversation in the kitchen, climbed.
Speaker 1: Through the twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3: Stirs sat down, talk to Rachel, talked to Luke, talked
Speaker 3: to Miss Patty, talked to Kirk. Had the fight in
Speaker 3: the street all that happened in twenty.
Speaker 2: You know, I really give credit to like the props Department,
Speaker 2: because it is hard to keep track of all that,
Speaker 2: like it's bound to happen, you know.
Speaker 1: But like, it's just so funny because you know, by
Speaker 1: the way.
Speaker 2: When we would watch this and it's like first airing,
Speaker 2: we couldn't unless you were recording it back on your VHS.
Speaker 2: There was no way to go back, so it didn't
Speaker 2: really matter. You were looking at the clock. We're sitting
Speaker 2: here watching it for like the twelfth time round, and like,
Speaker 2: it's so funny. But yeah, I also noticed say it
Speaker 2: was very bright for six am when she woke up.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes it was. It was a lot. I don't
Speaker 3: know if it was like daylight Savings or I don't know,
Speaker 3: but yeah, it was full.
Speaker 1: Daylight, full daylight, full daylight.
Speaker 2: I didn't like the scene though, the one scene I
Speaker 2: really did not like this episode, and it kind of
Speaker 2: irked me because I'm like, it's so out of character.
Speaker 2: Was Luke like having a fight with Dean, like he's
Speaker 2: a grown man and he and like, I was so
Speaker 2: funny because I forgot or all I says.
Speaker 1: He's sixteen, because it was like is it all sixteen?
Speaker 1: Like you're fighting with a sixteen year old?
Speaker 2: And I'm glad that line was in there, but I
Speaker 2: kind of was like, why would you push a kid
Speaker 2: to not come into your story? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: It just was a lot of character, I thought that scene.
Speaker 3: So there's two ways to look at that scene. You
Speaker 3: can you can look at it the way we are
Speaker 3: looking at it now in twenty twenty five, and you
Speaker 3: can look at it the way that it would have
Speaker 3: been in two thousand and one when it was I
Speaker 3: thought it was a funny scene. Although like that would
Speaker 3: not like if I were to see that in a
Speaker 3: show today, I'd be like, dude, what is wrong with
Speaker 3: that guy? But in that context, I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3: It was Luke.
Speaker 1: To me, it was Luke defend.
Speaker 3: Being protective, right, being protective of Rory. He's already you know,
Speaker 3: making her the special pancakes, and so he's you know,
Speaker 3: he just automatically takes Rory's side, and so I just
Speaker 3: kind of saw it through that lens, like you know,
Speaker 3: he's going to protect her. But I mean it is
Speaker 3: kind of with our with our modern, you know, way
Speaker 3: of looking at it, it is kind of not acceptable.
Speaker 1: Well not only that, I just thought like Luke wouldn't
Speaker 1: do that.
Speaker 2: I mean he got like riled up when Orli first
Speaker 2: told him, and then he calmed down, and then it
Speaker 2: was like got riled up again when he saw him,
Speaker 2: which I guess Luke has a bit of a temper.
Speaker 2: So I'm not that shocked now, I now that I
Speaker 2: talk about it out loud, but you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: it just was like, yeah, yeah, maybe as the time,
Speaker 2: maybe it is anyway, Yeah.
Speaker 3: One other thing and it's not it's not really like
Speaker 3: a blooper or anything. But there was the kitchen scene.
Speaker 3: There was a there was a part where Rory walked
Speaker 3: over to the kitchen sink and picked up a glass
Speaker 3: and she had like a scrubber thing with a handle.
Speaker 3: But she wasn't like washing the glass.
Speaker 2: She just was He was.
Speaker 1: Just like, I don't know, she was messing with it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like what did she do? I had to rewind it?
Speaker 3: And she she has the glass and she picks up
Speaker 3: some dish soap and then you just see her with
Speaker 3: this brush thing, but she's not like actually washing the glass.
Speaker 3: It just looked I don't know, it looked weird.
Speaker 1: It probably just it was like nervous energy. They needed
Speaker 1: her to do something.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and her notebook paper. She was writing in a
Speaker 3: spiral notebook. But when but the loose page didn't have
Speaker 3: like you know when you pull something out of the
Speaker 3: spiral note It didn't have a yeah paper on the edge,
Speaker 3: it didn't have that. It was like this perfectly neat.
Speaker 2: They were like, we're just gonna save a step, like
Speaker 2: skip a step, you know.
Speaker 3: And and it also the paper was also blank, which
Speaker 3: I noticed.
Speaker 1: That's funny.
Speaker 2: So much for the list, but yeah, I wish that
Speaker 2: listed more of what was on the list, because they
Speaker 2: came back with a bunch of random stuff.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, what was on there? What did she They.
Speaker 3: Clearly went to like home depot or something, because they
Speaker 3: came back with all like sprinklers and garden weasels and
Speaker 3: a garden hose.
Speaker 2: But then the first thing on the list that she
Speaker 2: read was like a soap holder, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then they mentioned the recycling center or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was I don't know, but they really got
Speaker 2: a lot done that day.
Speaker 3: I guess it was they just wanted to emphasize. It
Speaker 3: was really to distract Rory. So it was like something
Speaker 3: completely off the wall.
Speaker 2: How does she even come up with that stuff? Like
Speaker 2: if I'm sad, I just leave the house. I don't
Speaker 2: like sit there at you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 3: For a walk, or i'd go like by makeup or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, clothes, make up, retail therapy. She has
Speaker 2: a different version of retail therapy housewares.
Speaker 1: Anyway, was there anything else we had?
Speaker 3: The only thing I had in the diner when Laura I.
Speaker 3: When Luke first comes down and Laura I is talking
Speaker 3: to him, did you notice there was a guy sitting
Speaker 3: at the counter. Yes, and she's like she pushed him over,
Speaker 3: like she's literally leaning over his shoulder to talk to Luke.
Speaker 3: And then in the next shot he's like a barstool over.
Speaker 2: I totally noticed that because I'm like, she's like groping
Speaker 2: this year.
Speaker 3: The directory probably like dude, you're too clothes, move over.
Speaker 1: You way too much came. I noticed that too.
Speaker 2: I actually forgot to mention it because it went away
Speaker 2: so quickly that I like also was like, no whatever,
Speaker 2: but she literally was like all on his shoulder, and
Speaker 2: then it switched to show Luke and then it went
Speaker 2: back to Laura and then she has like full counterspace.
Speaker 3: It was so awkward.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was just.
Speaker 2: I also just think it was to show how crowded
Speaker 2: it was at that time. But it was just funny
Speaker 2: because then I would have liked if she kind of
Speaker 2: like maneuvered around him, like you know, like kind of
Speaker 2: like like.
Speaker 1: Pushed him over. But yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 2: It was funny. Oh man, all right, Well I think
Speaker 2: that's it for this episode, right, yep, I think that's it,
Speaker 2: all right. So the next episode is season one, episode eighteen,
Speaker 2: the third Laura I and Meeting adjourny. Hey everybody, and
