Speaker 3: That's what you tripped on.
Speaker 2: Is amazing, man, you know.
Speaker 3: Anyways, Welcome back to Howard Tanertos. I'm Andrea Barber and
Speaker 3: I'm Jody Sweeten, and today we're discussing season five, episode sixteen, Crushed.
Speaker 3: It originally aired January fourteenth, nineteen ninety two, and it
Speaker 3: goes a little something like this. Pop singer Tommy Page
Speaker 3: perform at Stephanie's tenth birthday party, which creates a love
Speaker 3: triangle between Stephanie and Djoh the Tommy Page episode. This
Speaker 3: is like, and this took place right before your real birthday,
Speaker 3: real day or right around my real birthday.
Speaker 1: And yeah, and this was like in the days before
Speaker 1: you know, people were paying pop stars a million dollars
Speaker 1: to complain at a birthday party.
Speaker 3: This was full house likes to do this though. We
Speaker 3: did this in fuller with the New Kids. Hey just
Speaker 3: stop by the house and sing some songs?
Speaker 2: Is it every day?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Beach Boys, Tommy Page, this is just the Tanner's
Speaker 3: you know, it's the Tanner's universe. We're all just living
Speaker 3: in it.
Speaker 1: Tommy was like, actually, I got to do some recording anyway.
Speaker 1: I'll just bop right over to your recording studio and
Speaker 1: we'll call it even I have to.
Speaker 3: Pay for recordings, so yeah, this was a win win,
Speaker 3: you know, I scratch your mutually beneficial absolutely. This was
Speaker 3: directed by joel's Wick. It was written by Diana Airs
Speaker 3: and Susan Sebastian, two names that do not ring a bell.
Speaker 1: But I do like that It was two women writers
Speaker 1: sort of writing about the girl's crush moments.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh it's yeah, it's this is a very milestone,
Speaker 3: you know, having you your first crush or getting your
Speaker 3: heart broken for the first time. Yeah, that's a universal experience.
Speaker 3: We have two excellent guest stars. We have the incomparable
Speaker 3: Tommy Page as Tommy Page, who was a very famous
Speaker 3: pop star at the time. His song I'll Be Your Everything,
Speaker 3: which was co written by Jordan Knight, it was Danny
Speaker 3: Wood of New Kids.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, didn't wasn't there a New Kids
Speaker 1: connection somewhere?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Big connection, big connection. Okay, So Jordan and Danny they
Speaker 3: co wrote the song and they sang the background vocals
Speaker 3: on it. Tommy Page opened for The New Kids on
Speaker 3: both their Hang and Tough tour in nineteen eighty nine
Speaker 3: and their Magic Summer Tour in nineteen ninety and so
Speaker 3: that's what sort of launched him into you know, the
Speaker 3: fandom of screaming teenage girls who couldn't get enough of
Speaker 3: these handsome boys. So yeah, he was dubbed like the
Speaker 3: sixth New Kid or the little brother to the New Kids. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so that's I was thrilled that he was on the show,
Speaker 3: just because it was like, you know, six degrees of separation.
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I'm closer to the New Kids
Speaker 3: because Tommy opened for them exactly. But yeah, he's so
Speaker 3: talented or he was so talented in his own right.
Speaker 3: He was the publisher of Billboard Magazine, vice president at Pandora.
Speaker 3: Yeah oh yeah wow. And he was the executive of
Speaker 3: Warner Brothers Records, and he helped shape the careers of
Speaker 3: Michael Boublet, Alanis Morrissette, Josh Grobin, and Green Day.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well he was a big time music executive. Yes, this
Speaker 3: wasn't like a one hit wonder or whatever.
Speaker 2: I need. I knew he had remained in the business.
Speaker 1: We had a couple mutual friends like back and forth
Speaker 1: that I would hear about every once in a while,
Speaker 1: but I had no idea that he had Like was
Speaker 1: that good for him?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Good for him, Like he took what could have just
Speaker 3: spend like a one hit like I mean, you know,
Speaker 3: riding on the backs of the new kids. But he
Speaker 3: really made a name for himself in the music industry.
Speaker 3: So yes, good for him. Sadly, he passed away in
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen, so I'm very glad that we can honor
Speaker 3: him this episode and last, but certainly not least, we
Speaker 3: have Todd McKenzie as boy at Party.
Speaker 2: I don't know. He might be last and least in
Speaker 2: this is.
Speaker 3: His only credit on IMDb, Like this is I don't
Speaker 3: know Mackenzie. That name doesn't ring a bell. So yeah,
Speaker 3: whose kid was he? I don't know? Yeah he was
Speaker 3: last and least Todd Mackenzie. Sorry Todd, but they should
Speaker 3: have given you more to do. We'll blame the writers.
Speaker 3: So we start, We start. We start with teaser. In
Speaker 3: the kitchen, Michelle and Becky are decorating Stephanie's birthday cake,
Speaker 3: and Michelle is dying to lick the spoon as usual,
Speaker 3: I get it regular the sugar binge. Yeah, in this case, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'd be the same. It's delicious to lick the spoons part.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: So, after a millisecond of spreading some frosting onto the cake,
Speaker 3: Michelle asks, now can we lick the spatula. Becky gives
Speaker 3: her the go ahead, and so Michelle proceeds to scrape
Speaker 3: off a huge layer of frosting directly from the cake
Speaker 3: and she devours it. Becky laughs before emphasizing now we
Speaker 3: have to make more frosting. Michelle responds with a mouth
Speaker 3: covered in frosting and says, really, what a shade, and
Speaker 3: continues to lick the spatula. I didn't even know what
Speaker 3: she said, So I'm glad that madam was able to translate, I'm.
Speaker 1: Just like, yeah, very much enjoying the sugar binge chocolateasting
Speaker 1: off of a spatula.
Speaker 2: There's nothing, there's.
Speaker 3: Really nothing better than chocolate frosting off a spatula. Truly
Speaker 3: like it tastes better. It tastes better off a spatula
Speaker 3: than it does off of a cake.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, there's something about it. It feels slightly forbidden, psychologic.
Speaker 1: You're like, oh, like not, I'm licking the thing before it's.
Speaker 3: Ready, But it's delicious, delicious. Next in the kitchen, Becky
Speaker 3: is attending to one twin while Jesse handles the other twin.
Speaker 3: He realizes it's Friday, which means he cleans the baby
Speaker 3: bottles and Becky cleans the baby bottoms. Then Joey walks
Speaker 3: in and does his Bullwinkle impression for the twins, also
Speaker 3: known as his biggest fans. One of the boys gives
Speaker 3: him a big belly laugh in return, and Joey beams.
Speaker 3: Becky admits, don't get too excited. They crack up at anything.
Speaker 2: This was so cute.
Speaker 1: It was kind of one of the first like big
Speaker 1: like smile laugh moments that we'd seen from the babies.
Speaker 3: Yes, kids, they were so cute after looking like those
Speaker 3: worried little.
Speaker 1: Like one was laughing, the other one was like, not
Speaker 1: here for you to mistro He can entertain him easily,
Speaker 1: but not me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like, I'm a tougher critic. You gotta work
Speaker 3: harder for my laugh. So Michelle decides to take a
Speaker 3: whack at it. She puts on her fake antlers and
Speaker 3: her best Bullwinkle voice, saying Hello, I'm Michelle Winkle. But
Speaker 3: the boys give her nothing, and she's appalled. Hey, what's
Speaker 3: your problem? This is funny stuff, she says. Becky tells
Speaker 3: her not to worry. The babies are just tired. She
Speaker 3: tells her boys that they need their beauty sleep, and
Speaker 3: Jesse corrects her, You mean they're ruggedly handsome sleep. Jesse
Speaker 3: and his masculinity need to strict gender roles here.
Speaker 2: Gender, let's gender our sleep too.
Speaker 3: Not enough gendered things in life. Jesse picks up one
Speaker 3: of the boys and they head upstairs for nap time.
Speaker 3: Michelle stays in the kitchen with Joey and she lets
Speaker 3: out a big sigh. I want to be funny like you.
Speaker 3: Joey puts on his announcer voice and takes a seat
Speaker 3: across from her. Welcome to Joey Gladstone's Comedy College. You'll
Speaker 3: have those babies laughing so hard, there won't be a
Speaker 3: dry diaper in the house. He lets out a roaring
Speaker 3: laugh at his own joke, and Michelle mimicks the low
Speaker 3: pitched laugh Dave's power laugh, the power laugh. Yeah. He
Speaker 3: gives her some pointers to enhance the laugh and she
Speaker 3: tries a few more times. Then they walk out of
Speaker 3: the door together and she gives him a big ha
Speaker 3: and he nods, there you go, which is this was
Speaker 3: such a cute bit.
Speaker 2: It's cute, but I made me go are you Are
Speaker 2: you okay? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: I would have actually done that. I'd be like, are
Speaker 1: you choky?
Speaker 2: Right? Guys?
Speaker 3: Are you put your arms?
Speaker 2: Let me hit you on the back.
Speaker 3: Do you need the highlights? Do you need some water?
Speaker 3: So then Danny walks downstairs with stephan Dj trailing him.
Speaker 3: Stephanie is begging, please take me to your show today.
Speaker 3: I gotta meet Tommy Page. Maybe he'll autograph this picture,
Speaker 3: and she shows off a large poster of the celebrity
Speaker 3: and Danny size, I'll try to get him to sign
Speaker 3: it for you. But you cannot cut school just because
Speaker 3: some rock star is on my show. But you should
Speaker 3: know this because we went through this Q in season one.
Speaker 3: Right right, I've already done this.
Speaker 1: We've already done the random giant poster appearing over the
Speaker 1: bed that suddenly we had never seen before.
Speaker 2: And then right right, we're just say.
Speaker 3: We're repeating storylines in five years, you've got to repeat
Speaker 3: some storylines now, I don't so, Stephanie argues, he's not
Speaker 3: just any rock star. His poster is hanging over my bed.
Speaker 2: Last three days.
Speaker 3: As Yes, as soon as came through, he's the last
Speaker 3: thing I see before I fall asleep, except the inside
Speaker 3: of my eyelids. I was so jealous of your black
Speaker 3: and plaid jacket here, Like this was the key little
Speaker 3: jacket jacket. I was speaking of plaid jackets. Yeah, it
Speaker 3: was so cute, the color, the like, the styling. It
Speaker 3: was just adorable.
Speaker 2: And you looked so the my style in this whole
Speaker 2: episode I really liked.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wasn't.
Speaker 1: I wasn't girly like I've never really been the girly
Speaker 1: girly one. So I liked like I it reflected that.
Speaker 2: She was kind of in a relationship thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, You're not just wearing like floral dresses like A yeah, exactly, No,
Speaker 3: you had you were on trend and making your own trends.
Speaker 3: I loved that jacket, so DJ smiles. This is so
Speaker 3: cute Stephanie's first childhood crush. You know, I had the
Speaker 3: same thing with George Michael until his ear rings got
Speaker 3: bigger than mine. Oh is that jokes?
Speaker 2: We didn't well know, but we didn't know at the time.
Speaker 3: I don't think we didn't know, right, No, we didn't
Speaker 3: know at the time, So that's okay. Stephanie reminds her,
Speaker 3: I am not a child. Today is my tenth birthday,
Speaker 3: the big one. Oh. She turns to Danny and tries
Speaker 3: to guilt trip him. I can't believe you won't. You
Speaker 3: wouldn't let your own daughter meet her all time favorite
Speaker 3: singer in the whole universe on her birthday. She sighs,
Speaker 3: and I thought you loved me. DJ applauds this dramatic performance,
Speaker 3: and Steph looks at her dad with hope. Did it work?
Speaker 3: And Danny responds bluntly no. Steph shrugs, I'm losing my touch.
Speaker 3: Danny hands over her lunchbox and tells her to get
Speaker 3: out of here. After she's out the door, DJ tells
Speaker 3: her dad that was pretty cool. I mean, it is
Speaker 3: her birthday and she does worship the guy. Danny spills
Speaker 3: the beans. I told Tommy what a big fan Stephanie
Speaker 3: is and he agreed to stop by her party after
Speaker 3: school today. DJ exclaims Stephanie's gonna go nuts, and Danny grins, am,
Speaker 3: I the raddest, baddest dad a kid ever had no
Speaker 3: and she admits, well you were until you said that, yeah,
Speaker 3: and exits. He had a good thing going and then
Speaker 3: he just he did a Danny Tanner. Yeah, made a
Speaker 3: cheesy joke. So later in the day, we are in
Speaker 3: the living room at Stephanie's tenth birthday party.
Speaker 2: There's the dancing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so great. Marky Mark's Good Vibrations is playing
Speaker 3: as kids are gathered around for the.
Speaker 2: Party, which I've told you the Marky Mark story.
Speaker 3: Right have you? Have? You reminded me.
Speaker 1: Probably around this age because it was just like Marky
Speaker 1: Mark era. I was flying to Boston for something and
Speaker 1: he was like in the row, like in front and
Speaker 1: over whatever.
Speaker 2: I was dying, but Mom was like, say hi.
Speaker 1: Like you could go see it and I was like no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: like I do.
Speaker 2: I'm like no, I'm that's not you know, I get it.
Speaker 2: You don't bother you. I'm not gonna don't. I don't
Speaker 2: want to bother you. Anyway.
Speaker 1: As we're getting off the plane, uh, we're like, you know,
Speaker 1: in before you get off, and he just leans over
Speaker 1: and he goes.
Speaker 2: Hey, I got to tell you I love your show.
Speaker 2: And I was like I melted right there.
Speaker 3: And then so the Boston accent and everything was very good.
Speaker 2: I actually did that very well.
Speaker 3: You did very good. Yes, but yeah a moment, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you were just floating right on the.
Speaker 2: I was real, I remember it to this day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so bad.
Speaker 1: And then the fact that I was like, oh, hell yeah,
Speaker 1: we even like we even could play it on the show.
Speaker 3: So I was like, yeah, it's like great, they got
Speaker 3: the clearance and they it was a perfect song for
Speaker 3: this party. If you can't get one, you got to
Speaker 3: get together. So the boys are eating caramel apples while
Speaker 3: the girls are out on the dance floor.
Speaker 2: It seems like a strange party snack. But what else.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's more of like a halloween.
Speaker 2: Especially losing their teeth.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be like like a shark in there, me
Speaker 1: laying all over.
Speaker 3: The floor another too, Yeah you need more finger foods,
Speaker 3: not something that you get all over.
Speaker 2: Your face and a slice.
Speaker 3: They're very difficult. Yeah, not not the best party snack.
Speaker 3: I agree. So Jesse joins the dance circle for a
Speaker 3: minute to show off his awkward moves, and then we
Speaker 3: see Joey up on a pedestal acting as the DJ
Speaker 3: for the party. The group of girls cheer for him
Speaker 3: when the song is over.
Speaker 2: And these were a bunch of my dance friends.
Speaker 1: By the way, Yes.
Speaker 3: That little one with the blonde hair like she's always
Speaker 3: staring right at the.
Speaker 2: Staring right in them. I can't remember her name now,
Speaker 2: but yeah, she was. She was in it.
Speaker 3: They got a lot of screen time in this season.
Speaker 3: That's so amazing. I love this. So Joey speaks into
Speaker 3: the microphone. Yo, yo, yo, this is Joey Joe bad
Speaker 3: Stone at Stephanie Tanner's birthday party, pumping up the jams
Speaker 3: and jamming up the pump. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: The crowd does not know what he's saying. They shrug
Speaker 3: in confusion, and so he changes course. Hey, neither do
Speaker 3: I all right? Everybody party and the music resumes. Steph
Speaker 3: walks up to Jesse and complains none of the boys
Speaker 3: will dance, and he assures her that he can help.
Speaker 2: Never going to change stuff.
Speaker 3: No, this is common at these gender parties. On either
Speaker 3: side that's divided. I'm more impressed that you invited boys
Speaker 3: to this party at ten I did not want.
Speaker 2: Anything to do it. It looks like eight you know what
Speaker 2: I mean?
Speaker 1: They look as usual, The girls look like much more mature,
Speaker 1: and the boys I was like, well, I mean, I
Speaker 1: can see why these boys aren't wanting to talk to
Speaker 1: These girls are at least three years.
Speaker 3: Older than them, right, they have no social skills and
Speaker 3: they are feeling awkward for being at this party. Uh So,
Speaker 3: Jesse walks over to the boys and tries to lend
Speaker 3: some encouragement. I realize you guys might be a little
Speaker 3: shy around women. You're wondering if you're overmoosed under yodory.
Speaker 3: I know how you feel. One of the boys asks
Speaker 3: you mean you were shy around girls, and Jesse scoffs, No,
Speaker 3: what am I a dork? Go ask them to dance?
Speaker 3: They all cringe and say you at the suggestion, So
Speaker 3: Jesse takes a different approach. He tells the girls it's
Speaker 3: lady's choice. They can grab their favorite guy and go
Speaker 3: for it. On cue. All of the girls swarm Uncle
Speaker 3: Jesse and he cringes, Oh oh no, no, no, not me.
Speaker 3: The little ones. Their face is sour as they say
Speaker 3: you at the thought. They don't want to intermingle like that.
Speaker 1: Boys and girls agels are having fun dancing and the
Speaker 1: boys are heaving been eating and that's usually how I just.
Speaker 3: Want to eat. Yep, this is this is how it goes.
Speaker 3: So the girls resume their dancing to good Vibrations and
Speaker 3: Steph leads them in a cool dance routine.
Speaker 1: I did love this one. This was a fun one
Speaker 1: and it does make the rounds.
Speaker 2: It makes it. I mean, it's been done to I think,
Speaker 2: like Kendrick Lamar, they not like us. It's ben Zunde
Speaker 2: like and.
Speaker 1: It weirdly like depending on like whatever the bpm is
Speaker 1: of good vibrations, you know, if you find something.
Speaker 3: That goes with the kind of similar it works perfectly.
Speaker 1: And I've seen a lot of versions of it and
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh I like that.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a good one.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that was a fun dance. It was. I
Speaker 2: loved that it was. It was cute.
Speaker 3: It was very full house just to break out into
Speaker 3: dance randomly, at least dance friends.
Speaker 1: Obviously they've been working on this in class.
Speaker 3: Very true, very true. Do you remember who choreographed as Staley?
Speaker 1: It was Dennis Caspery, My my dance teacher, Dennis Caspery
Speaker 1: and the Casbury family owned.
Speaker 3: Studio C which was where I.
Speaker 1: Danced growing up, along with a couple other places later on,
Speaker 1: but Studio CE and Dennis was our teacher and he
Speaker 1: was there like competition dance teacher too.
Speaker 2: So he choreographed all that stuff.
Speaker 1: And yeah, whenever we needed Motown Philly or you know whatever,
Speaker 1: like he came in and uh and love shack.
Speaker 3: So he did fantastic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, his brothers was on. So you think you can
Speaker 1: dance as a choreographer for a while really?
Speaker 3: Oh okay, Yeah, so it runs in the family.
Speaker 2: Indeed, this waslight to watch.
Speaker 1: Was in Don't Tell Mom, the Babysitters Dead. And she
Speaker 1: was also a backup dancer for Janet Jackson for a
Speaker 1: long time too. Yeah, it was They were a whole
Speaker 1: dance family.
Speaker 3: Oh that's amazing, Oh so cool. Yes, so glad that
Speaker 3: he got some of his work to show you and show.
Speaker 1: It was so much fun. But this dance had some
Speaker 1: This was like a good dance. This was when I
Speaker 1: was getting like more into like the fun sort of
Speaker 1: like had coordination of arms and legs all at one
Speaker 1: time right right that before. But it was it felt
Speaker 1: like a little more secure in it.
Speaker 3: It was a little more mature. Ye it wasn't you know,
Speaker 3: So I don't know, but yeah, it was. It was
Speaker 3: mature and cute and trendy.
Speaker 2: I had some shoulder pads going.
Speaker 3: It's the shoulder pads were all the point. If TikTok
Speaker 3: had been a thing back then, this would have definite
Speaker 3: TikTok down absolutely easily. So next in the kitchen, Kimmy
Speaker 3: bursts through the back door and runs up to Danny,
Speaker 3: who is decorating Stuff's birthday cake, and she demands Wor's
Speaker 3: Tommy page tell him his love slave is ready to
Speaker 3: fulfill his every wish. Oh, Kimmy, Kimmy is so extra,
Speaker 3: She's so extra right now, Danny looks at his daughter
Speaker 3: and questions, why did you tell Kimmy? And DJ admits,
Speaker 3: because I tell Kimmy everything. He smiles okay, then tell
Speaker 3: her to go home. Kimmy gives him a smug grin
Speaker 3: in return. No can do, mister, t I saw tim
Speaker 3: Tommy's limo outside.
Speaker 2: Timmy's where Timmy. Timmy's lama outside.
Speaker 3: Related to the lama, but it's a toy lama Alamo. Well,
Speaker 3: we ride horses up the front stairs and his lama
Speaker 3: lamo upstairs. Uh so, Kimmy continues, Now, where are you
Speaker 3: hiding that hunk delicious boy toy? Danny reveals he's waiting downstairs,
Speaker 3: and Kimmy starts to sprint towards the stairs, but Danny shouts,
Speaker 3: freeze Gibbler, I need him in one piece. He walks
Speaker 3: over to Kimmy and declares, right now, I want the
Speaker 3: two of you to go out there and tell Jesse
Speaker 3: and Joey that we're ready. Okay. He wags his finger
Speaker 3: in Kimmy's face and demands, don't do anything to embarrass us,
Speaker 3: and Kimmy assures him I'll be the perfect lady until
Speaker 3: I see Tommy, and then you'll have to hose me down.
Speaker 3: Calm down, Kimmy, like she's just thirsting, kim Wow, I
Speaker 3: know she's just boyfriends.
Speaker 2: Like Kimmy's frustrated.
Speaker 3: You know, she's gone from Patrick Swayze and she's all
Speaker 3: about Tommy.
Speaker 2: You know, it's just yeah.
Speaker 3: Bitterman's gone. So she needs somebody to fit the bill,
Speaker 3: and she's chosen poor Tommy Page to be the one.
Speaker 3: So DJ grabs Kimmy and they go into the living room.
Speaker 3: DJ runs up to Joey and says he's ready, and
Speaker 3: all of the family members get into place. Danny walks
Speaker 3: in and grabs the microphone. He asks everyone to move
Speaker 3: back and motions Stephanie to sit in the chair that
Speaker 3: was placed in the middle of the room. Once she seated,
Speaker 3: he announces, this is my special gift from me to you.
Speaker 3: Jesse begins to play the keyboard, and then Tommy Page
Speaker 3: appears in the doorway. Stephanie screams his name at the
Speaker 3: top of her lungs, and the rest of the girls follow.
Speaker 3: Kimmy lunges for celebrity crush, but DJ holds her back.
Speaker 3: Then Tommy begins to sing a personalized song for steph
Speaker 3: called Stephanie. Oh. She watches an awe.
Speaker 2: Stephanie, Remember Bob and Dave, you had a whole joke
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 3: Oh. They they they whole week.
Speaker 2: They were a week. They could not shut up.
Speaker 3: They could not because they weren't in the really in
Speaker 3: the a storyline much.
Speaker 1: So they were there and there was some music dancing
Speaker 1: at which and they were like, let's be idiots.
Speaker 3: It was idiots, complete idiots.
Speaker 2: Yes us.
Speaker 3: The other girls are swaying to the music in the
Speaker 3: background after the song is over.
Speaker 2: Was so creepy to me.
Speaker 3: This, okay, are we starting out? Like we gotta start?
Speaker 2: How we can't not we got a start? This was
Speaker 2: so strange and it only gets stranger too.
Speaker 3: It's so he's I think he was twenty one or
Speaker 3: twenty two at the time. You're ten, right, DJ is fifteen, Yeah,
Speaker 3: and he's just you know, kissing everybody on lips and everybody.
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm sorry, sir, are you European? What
Speaker 2: is why are you doing this? Don't we don't do
Speaker 2: this here?
Speaker 3: But okay, we don't do this here. No, And he
Speaker 3: knows that. And also Stephanie loves him and adores him.
Speaker 2: And it has a huge children that you don't know
Speaker 2: on the lips, just.
Speaker 3: Don't don't do that, kiss any underage children on the lips.
Speaker 2: That don't It's like grandma or you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Well, grandma's not underage. Just don't kiss any of the
Speaker 3: would grandma, Well yeah, grandma can kiss you on the lips,
Speaker 3: but yeah, Tommy Page cannot.
Speaker 1: Don't random children whose living rooms you happen to wind
Speaker 1: up in serenading them, don't kiss them on the lips
Speaker 1: after It really creates confusion.
Speaker 2: Yes, agreed, Yeah, I know this song was uh creepy and.
Speaker 3: I the song, Yeah, that song wasn't my favorite.
Speaker 1: Well it wasn't what the song itself wasn't creepy. It
Speaker 1: was the singing it to a ten year old, uh,
Speaker 1: without change, jing like the lyrics of it were.
Speaker 2: It was creepy.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's the the whole thing, the whole thing.
Speaker 2: It didn't make me uncomfortable, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: It's like watching it, you're.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, like really, yeah, I can't remember if this
Speaker 3: was a song that was written for this show. I
Speaker 3: hope so, I hope so, okay, so they could have
Speaker 3: changed the lyrics. It's not like they were.
Speaker 1: No, I'm sure this was the established It was one
Speaker 1: of those songs that it's like, we got to write
Speaker 1: a song next by next week here, you know.
Speaker 2: You have to go for eight hours to write a great.
Speaker 1: Song, and they're like, uh, you know, and it's got
Speaker 1: to be about Stephanie and it's got it, you know.
Speaker 3: So and double as the girlfriends Lee.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was it was odd.
Speaker 3: I get what they were going for, like this is
Speaker 3: I love the plot of this, It just was not
Speaker 3: well executed.
Speaker 1: Would have picked a different song, yeah, I would have
Speaker 1: picked less of a Sarah Nade and more of some
Speaker 1: sort of you know, maybe they dance together and she
Speaker 1: get you know what I mean, Like there were there's
Speaker 1: pleas do it that aren't Like an.
Speaker 2: Adult man singing to a ten year old and then
Speaker 2: kissing her on the lips at the end. That's strange. Strange.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know it. It took me out of
Speaker 3: the It took me out of the moment. It took
Speaker 3: me out the scene and I just all went downhill
Speaker 3: from there. But yeah, I mean, this is Stephanie's dream,
Speaker 3: Like of course she's going to just fall madly in
Speaker 3: love with him and think that their soulmates. You could
Speaker 3: see this coming a mile away, and poor clueless Tommy.
Speaker 2: Page no idea.
Speaker 3: I don't know, man, I don't I mean, I guess
Speaker 3: he was clueless.
Speaker 1: If he can't do you know what I mean, you
Speaker 1: have to figure out his like fan interaction moments.
Speaker 3: This is true. Yeah, he needs some media training and
Speaker 3: a handler just to get him through all this.
Speaker 2: Just let some show to some random family's house. It's strange.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he has no security bodyguard, he is no manager.
Speaker 3: He was set up for failure. He really was sure. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So anyways, after this.
Speaker 2: Love ballad to a child.
Speaker 3: He uh, Tommy kisses Stephanie's hand wishes her a happy birthday.
Speaker 3: As everyone applauds his performance. Stephanie gives her dad a
Speaker 3: huge hug and exclaims he's the best birthday present ever?
Speaker 3: Can I keep him? Meanwhile, dj is holding on to
Speaker 3: Kimmy for safety, but Kimmy assures her that she can
Speaker 3: let go now. As soon as dj unhooks her arm,
Speaker 3: Kimmy darts toward Tommy and jumps into his arms. Luckily,
Speaker 3: he catches her and gives her an awkward hello. And
Speaker 3: all I could think about was how I had to
Speaker 3: cheat my look so I wasn't looking to Joel kept saying,
Speaker 3: you're looking too far upstage, and so you're like, you
Speaker 3: can I have to look out the in my eye,
Speaker 3: which is the most awkward thing ever. And then I'm
Speaker 3: performing it with this this hunka Honka pop star, and
Speaker 3: so I just.
Speaker 2: Like have had interactions with the new kids, which at the.
Speaker 3: Time, I absolutely had interactions with the new kids. So
Speaker 3: I was like, what if he goes back to the
Speaker 3: new kids and tells them this weird child actress kept
Speaker 3: looking at me like, you know, her eyes and crossed did.
Speaker 2: That's probably why they didn't and they didn't come on
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 3: I know it all. This is the origin, this is
Speaker 3: how it all.
Speaker 2: Why she's the one is she won't look at you
Speaker 2: in the eye. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 3: She won't look at you in the eye, and it's awkward.
Speaker 3: This girl is awkward, and it was so Kimmy wraps
Speaker 3: her arms around Tommy's neck and she explains, I'm Stephanie's
Speaker 3: best friend, Kimmy Gibbler. Can I have your autograph? Just
Speaker 3: sign it to Kimmy the woman of my dreams. Danny
Speaker 3: chimes in, he writes music, not science fiction.
Speaker 2: Damn.
Speaker 3: It's a good burn though. It's yeah, burned, but and
Speaker 3: Kimmy deserves it, like she's so unhinged in this episode
Speaker 3: like somebody hoes her down. So Tommy sets Kimmy down
Speaker 3: and insists, it's no problem. Where do you want me
Speaker 3: to sign? Kimmy reaches for her foot and says, here,
Speaker 3: sign my shoe. But as soon as her foot is exposed,
Speaker 3: everyone plugs their noses and says you in unison.
Speaker 1: I would love to tell people that that is something
Speaker 1: that never happens, but I cannot tell you how many
Speaker 1: times someone has ripped off a shoe for me to
Speaker 1: sign it.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, that's whatever they got on hand. You know.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you signed on foot, on hand, on arm on Yeah,
Speaker 3: I know. There's no shortage of things that you can
Speaker 3: autograph for sure. Uh So Danny and Joey intervene. They
Speaker 3: grab Kimy's arms and lift her out of the room,
Speaker 3: while Kimmy protests, wait a minute, he hasn't signed it yet,
Speaker 3: and they drag her out.
Speaker 2: Hilarious though in this moment, very funny, thank you it was.
Speaker 3: Kimmy deserved to be a scorty out just like that. Yes.
Speaker 3: Then Steph makes her way up to Tommy and assures
Speaker 3: him I've never seen that woman before in my life life.
Speaker 3: She continues, thank you so much, for coming. Would you
Speaker 3: sign my CD? And he responds, you're the birthday girl c.
Speaker 1: D stuff Man CD y Height of Technology in nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety two.
Speaker 3: Steph grins and tells him she'll be right back. Then
Speaker 3: she runs over to her group of friends and says,
Speaker 3: watch him until I get back. They do exactly as
Speaker 3: they're told, and they run up to Tommy all at once,
Speaker 3: but Tommy dodges them to chat with Jesse. He thanks
Speaker 3: Jesse for his help on the piano, and Jesse casually responds,
Speaker 3: no problem. You know, I dabble in music myself there,
Speaker 3: tom You may have heard of my band, Jesse and
Speaker 3: the Rippers. Tommy nodds, Yeah, didn't you play in Seattle
Speaker 3: this summer with the record Like again, wait, didn't.
Speaker 2: I this summer last? Oh?
Speaker 1: Because it was the summer that's true because Becky was
Speaker 1: pregnant and went with him a little bit. So yeah,
Speaker 1: and that was and then he fell from grace. He
Speaker 1: had a tour and then he was Yeah, the.
Speaker 3: Record company was like, we want to wash our hands
Speaker 3: of you and sent him into a tailspin. So Jesse
Speaker 3: is thrilled that he's getting this acknowledgment from Tommy and
Speaker 3: he says, why, yes, we did. We played at a
Speaker 3: little club near the university over there. Tommy humbly brags,
Speaker 3: Oh cool, Yeah, I played at the Kingdome. Jesse tries
Speaker 3: to play it off. Oh that's nice if you're into
Speaker 3: big stadiums and lots of money, I prefer to play
Speaker 3: these small, intimate places where I can split a pizza
Speaker 3: with my audience. Great line. Becky lets out a big
Speaker 3: fake laugh and asks the pop star to excuse them.
Speaker 3: So Tommy walks back over to the middle of the
Speaker 3: dance floor and the girls shuffle along with him. Michelle
Speaker 3: pipes up and introduces herself to Tommy. She politely shakes
Speaker 3: his hand and tells he tells her it's nice to
Speaker 3: meet her. Then she declares, my birthdays in November, start
Speaker 3: working on my song. Tommy laughs and tells her she's funny.
Speaker 3: I don't think she was joking. I think she's a
Speaker 3: checkting a song in November.
Speaker 1: Demand has just been made of him that she's.
Speaker 3: Gonna follow up November. First, she's like, it's November.
Speaker 2: It's November. Where is my song?
Speaker 3: So then Michelle braggs I'm in comedy college, and with
Speaker 3: that she walks away.
Speaker 2: I'd be like, are you is she kid? Okay?
Speaker 3: What's wrong with gray?
Speaker 2: Like a donkey?
Speaker 3: What was that? So? Then DJ sees an opportunity to
Speaker 3: introduce herself. She tells Tommy, I'm Stephanie's sister.
Speaker 2: DJ.
Speaker 3: Is this your first time in San Francisco? He responds, yeah,
Speaker 3: but I haven't really had the chance to see anything yet.
Speaker 3: She gives him some suggestions like Chinatown and Fisherman's Wharf,
Speaker 3: and Tommy asks, maybe you could show me around tomorrow.
Speaker 3: DJ can't hide her shock me I'd love to on cue.
Speaker 3: Steph walks back into the room with her CD and
Speaker 3: smiles at Tommy, saying, sorry, I took so long. DJ camment,
Speaker 3: whoa Steph? How many gallons of perfume did you put on?
Speaker 3: She responds, I just put on one little dab and
Speaker 3: then she leans in and whispers on every inch of
Speaker 3: my body that's so like, Yes, when you're new to perfume, what.
Speaker 2: You do.
Speaker 1: Walking through a middle school school hallway and like just
Speaker 1: the mixture of undeodorized children and uh per spray and
Speaker 1: and uh bathom body works body spray.
Speaker 2: That's it's just that mixed.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, Yes, there's just it's in my nose
Speaker 3: is like vibrating.
Speaker 2: Think about it.
Speaker 3: So then steph hands the CD to Tommy so he
Speaker 3: can sign it, and he reads his autograph out loud
Speaker 3: to Stephanie, love Tommy, it's a little too much emphasis
Speaker 3: on the love part. He hands it back to her
Speaker 3: and then plants a kiss on her lips.
Speaker 2: Why would you know it's so strange?
Speaker 3: Kiss her hand again. If you got to kiss something,
Speaker 3: just kiss her hand.
Speaker 2: Don't kiss her fifteen year old on a date you're kissing.
Speaker 3: This is a lawsuit waiting to happen, Tommy. That's that's
Speaker 3: what this is.
Speaker 2: Like.
Speaker 3: This is I was very uncomfortable from this moment on.
Speaker 3: I was like so much discomfort. It's like, oh boy.
Speaker 3: Stephanie faints immediately after, and DJ has to drag her
Speaker 3: over to the nearest chair.
Speaker 2: Was Danny in the room?
Speaker 3: Good question? Well, we know Becky and Jessie left. I
Speaker 3: need to go do something.
Speaker 2: Was Danny in the room.
Speaker 3: Maybe not? If that was my daughter, he'll be like, okay, yes,
Speaker 3: like a background check on this guy. No. So next
Speaker 3: in the kitchen a little while later, Stephanie is sitting
Speaker 3: by the phone asking comment which sounds better for her
Speaker 3: name Missus Tommy Page, Stephanie Page, Stephanie Tanner Page, or
Speaker 3: Missus Stephanie Judith Tanner Page Calm. It turns over for
Speaker 3: a belly rub, but she reminds him that he can't
Speaker 3: get one of those until the wedding invitations are done.
Speaker 3: Then DJ and Tommy walk in from their sight seeing
Speaker 3: date and Steph listens in on their conversation.
Speaker 2: We call it a date.
Speaker 3: I'm calling it a date.
Speaker 2: I know it's weird. It was just the two of
Speaker 2: them on the list. He doesn't know, terrible.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you this. Tommy needs someone to sit him
Speaker 3: down and say these are the things we don't do.
Speaker 1: This is not going to end well, Uh, someone's going
Speaker 1: to suit you.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yes, Also, don't do that. Just don't do that.
Speaker 3: It just just stops underage girls like yeah, don't please.
Speaker 3: So DJ thanks him for the day, admitting I've never
Speaker 3: had tacos in a limo before. Actually, I've never been
Speaker 3: in a limo before. Tommy laughs. I kind of figure
Speaker 3: that out when you went to sit in the front
Speaker 3: seat with the chauffeur.
Speaker 1: Well, because it would be weird to sit in the
Speaker 1: back of a limo with a man. I don't know
Speaker 1: at fifteen, but whatever I know.
Speaker 3: I know. So then he asks, do you want to
Speaker 3: come to my concert tonight? I can get you backstage passes.
Speaker 3: DJ excitedly tells him yes, but Stephanie looks disappointed. Tommy
Speaker 3: says he has to go downstairs to see Jesse, explaining
Speaker 3: I promised Stephanie I'd make her a tape of that song.
Speaker 3: DJ thanks him for a great day, and then Tommy
Speaker 3: kisses her on the lips. Stop it, Tommy, It's not
Speaker 3: even a kiss on the cheeks, like kiss.
Speaker 2: The lip on one on each side. It's a right
Speaker 2: on the lips.
Speaker 3: Was this weird at the time or is it just now?
Speaker 3: Like like here's weird at the time too, Like just
Speaker 3: these are things you just don't do.
Speaker 2: You know now that I think about it.
Speaker 1: There were a couple of times that John would do it,
Speaker 1: but it felt different because John was like our family.
Speaker 3: It's your uncle. Yeah we knew, Yes, that's true. John
Speaker 3: did do this several times, but we.
Speaker 2: Knew, but we knew him, and it didn't feel weird.
Speaker 1: Then this felt weird just because it was like right,
Speaker 1: it wasn't family, and he was just slightly older you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it wasn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they had just met and he know and
Speaker 3: he I'm sorry. Tommy Page has to be smarter than this.
Speaker 3: He knows that these girls are falling for him and
Speaker 3: have crushes on him, Like he has to know that
Speaker 3: he's a pop star, right, So like to very encourage that,
Speaker 3: very oblivious. I couldn't read the room Tommy Page. Uh
Speaker 3: So once Tommy's out at your shot, DJ whispers to
Speaker 3: herself yes, and Stephanie quickly runs upstairs, goes into her
Speaker 3: room and cries, that was so sad you and your tears. Hmmm,
Speaker 3: I know I felt for you. I felt for you
Speaker 3: in this moment. I mean, yes, is stuff a little
Speaker 3: delusional with the wedding invitations?
Speaker 1: Yes, when you get a crush on somebody, I remember
Speaker 1: when in middle school being fooled by some boy that
Speaker 1: told me that he was this was actually him in
Speaker 1: a magazine that he was like a model, and I
Speaker 1: felt I want for hook line and I was like, oh.
Speaker 2: My god, so and everyone's like, yeah, that's like an
Speaker 2: adult man. It's like no, no, no, no, he just looks
Speaker 2: different in the pictures. And then like oh yeah, a
Speaker 2: year later, I was like, that's absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 3: That is ridiculous. True, yeah, no, this was the very
Speaker 3: com for ten year old girls like me. I was
Speaker 3: always like missus Andrea McIntyre like that guess on my notebook,
Speaker 3: over and over and over all the combinations, So I
Speaker 3: get it, I get it. I felt really felt for
Speaker 3: stuff in this moment. So next to the attic, Becky's
Speaker 3: holding Nicki and Alex, trying to teach them their first
Speaker 3: words mommy. Then Joey and Michelle entered the room and
Speaker 3: Joey announces Nicki and Alex get ready to laugh because
Speaker 3: here comes the first graduate of Joey Gladstone's comedy college.
Speaker 3: Michelle walks behind the couch and re emerges with an
Speaker 3: arrow on her head, saying, boy, do I have a headache?
Speaker 2: A gotta go with it. Staby's Martin with the original Yep.
Speaker 3: The babies have zero reaction, so Michelle tries again, maybe
Speaker 3: he didn't see this arrow in my head. Still no
Speaker 3: reaction from the babies, so Michelle turns to Joey and admits,
Speaker 3: I'm dying out here. Joey suggests that she go for
Speaker 3: her big finish, but Michelle doesn't really want to. He
Speaker 3: emphasizes everyone knows that a pie in the face is
Speaker 3: the oldest joke in the book, and it always gets
Speaker 3: a laugh. Michelle gives in, Okay, let me have it,
Speaker 3: so he pulls out a pie tin filled with whipped cream.
Speaker 3: When Joey asks if Michelle Michelle if she's ready, Michelle
Speaker 3: pulls a fast one on him and slams the pie
Speaker 3: into his face instead.
Speaker 2: I just be mad at the whip cream on the floor.
Speaker 3: And it gets on the wall.
Speaker 2: Do you think I don't have enough to deal with?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Change and carpet?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: This poor goal?
Speaker 3: Like give her a break.
Speaker 2: The least could have done is done this joke in
Speaker 2: the kitchen.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, like the floors already need to be waxed
Speaker 3: from the last easy clean up. So but the babies
Speaker 3: are finally smiling. One is laughing we at Michelle, and
Speaker 3: she victoriously says, I did it. I'm funny. Joey is
Speaker 3: stunned and he has a face full of pie. He
Speaker 3: reminds her I'm supposed to throw the pie in your face,
Speaker 3: but Michelle insists this was funnier, and as she tries
Speaker 3: to quickly run away, Joey tries to catch her. Then
Speaker 3: Steph walks in, Yet, Becky, can we talk woman to woman?
Speaker 3: Becky nods sure, but I thought you'd be downstairs listening
Speaker 3: to Tommy record your song. Stephanie admits this is more important,
Speaker 3: so Becky takes a seat on the couch right next
Speaker 3: to her. I love these heart hearts be they always
Speaker 3: fill my heart with you know, it's.
Speaker 2: Just like a mother figure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just it always makes me smile. So Stephanie
Speaker 3: asks Becky, what would you do if another woman stole
Speaker 3: Uncle Jesse from you? Becky explains, well, that would never
Speaker 3: happen because your uncle Jesse and I have a loving
Speaker 3: and committed relationship based on mutual trust and respect, and
Speaker 3: then she scoffs she'd never know what hit her stuff.
Speaker 3: Seems pleased, got it, Aunt, Becky? She's toast and gets
Speaker 3: up to leave, but Becky stops her and asks, is
Speaker 3: this about a boy at your party? And Steph responds, well, yeah,
Speaker 3: sort of. He really liked me, but another woman stole
Speaker 3: my man right out from under my nose, the scuz queen.
Speaker 3: Becky is just as appalled as Stephanie is, and she asks,
Speaker 3: so who is this scugz Queen?
Speaker 2: I feel like scus Queen would be a great name
Speaker 2: for a punk band. Yeah, the Scugs Queens Queens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's giving. I would give the germs kind of vibe,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, yeah, I would watch them in concert. H.
Speaker 3: Then Steph cleverly explains, well, she was like a sister
Speaker 3: to me, but not anymore. I'm gonna win him back.
Speaker 3: Becky suggests, well, there's nothing wrong with letting him know
Speaker 3: why you're the one he should be with, and Steph
Speaker 3: nods in agreement. Right, and if that doesn't work, she's
Speaker 3: toast and she marches out with determination. Okay, okay, not
Speaker 3: not Becky's best talk, but that's okay.
Speaker 1: She's going on went unanswered, but many or and then unasked.
Speaker 3: Really but what stuff got? What she needed?
Speaker 2: A vague answers to create confusion.
Speaker 3: Right, like, we're on we're on minute eighteen. I need
Speaker 3: to wrap this up, so there's really no time for
Speaker 3: a heart to heart. Let's just speed it up. In
Speaker 3: the kitchen, DJ is anxiously waiting for the red recording
Speaker 3: light to turn off. When Kimmy barges in. She looks
Speaker 3: around frantically and slams the door. I know he's here.
Speaker 3: Where'd you stash him? DJ explains Tommy's downstairs in the
Speaker 3: studio recording, but I can't go down there until the
Speaker 3: red light is off. Kimmy grins and immediately starts to
Speaker 3: inquire about their date. I want details, what happened with
Speaker 3: you and Tommy? DJ smirks before or after he kissed me.
Speaker 3: Kimmy is stunned. No, you were lip wrestling with the
Speaker 3: stud puppy.
Speaker 1: That was such a Kimmy line. It's fantastic.
Speaker 3: Things normally the stud puppy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, liip wrestling. Wow.
Speaker 3: Kimmy's very colorful with her descriptions and her choice of words.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that was a very Kimmy Gibler comment. DJ
Speaker 3: nods yes, and Kimmy exclaims, I am so happy for you,
Speaker 3: and I'm thinking of that meme. Well, you wouldn't know this,
Speaker 3: the Friends meme with Jennifer Aniston where she's just like,
Speaker 3: I'm so happy for you and I'm not jealous at all.
Speaker 3: That's like what I'm thinking. DJ has stolen Kimmy's crush.
Speaker 3: Stephanie's crushing.
Speaker 2: No, cool, you got yours? I'm gonna She's.
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, can I take a crack at it? And
Speaker 3: DJ's like, yes, I mind, he's not running a kissing booth.
Speaker 3: We're starting a real relationship. Kimmy shrugs, Hey, it was
Speaker 3: worth a shot. Well, good luck. When that red light
Speaker 3: goes off, it's a green light for love, and she
Speaker 3: does a little shimmy before heading out the door. I
Speaker 3: hated that line. I don't I was just embarrassed about
Speaker 3: this whole bit. I don't know green. It was just cringey,
Speaker 3: corny language, and I was selling I was trying to
Speaker 3: sell it, and I can't sell.
Speaker 1: It otherwise it's even worse, and you it's worse thing
Speaker 1: is race.
Speaker 3: I didn't want to say that step puppy or wrestlingly.
Speaker 1: Aloof and uninterested and the most non of nonchalant.
Speaker 3: Yeah right, but no, I shil made my way out
Speaker 3: that door and tried to sell it. Uh so, yeah, anyways,
Speaker 3: that was a thing that happened. Next, in the studio,
Speaker 3: Tommy is finishing up the vocals for his Stephanie song
Speaker 3: while Jesse helps him record it. Jesse admits, that was
Speaker 3: really nice of you to write that song for Stephanie,
Speaker 3: but Tommy comes clean, I didn't really write it for Stephanie.
Speaker 3: I wrote it for my girlfriend, Melanie. I just changed
Speaker 3: all the Melanies to Stephanie's.
Speaker 2: Does Melanie laugh about your kissing of people?
Speaker 3: Were Melanie at all this, Melanie would not be happy
Speaker 3: to see what has transpired at the Tanner House today
Speaker 3: between his date with the fifteen year old kissing ten
Speaker 3: year olds on the lips. If I was Melanie, I'd
Speaker 3: be like, this is a big red flag, dude, right.
Speaker 2: Uh so?
Speaker 3: Jesse laughs, telling him not to mention that to Stephanie
Speaker 3: and Tommy grinns asking him not to mention it to
Speaker 3: Melanie either. Then Jesse turns the red light off and
Speaker 3: DJ immediately walks downstairs. She tells them, oh, I just
Speaker 3: happen to see the red light go off, not that
Speaker 3: I was waiting for the red light to go off,
Speaker 3: because I do have a life. She sees Tommy and says,
Speaker 3: oh hi, completely bypassing Uncle Jesse on the way over
Speaker 3: to him. Then Stephanie walks in and says, oh hi, Tommy,
Speaker 3: and she also bypasses Jesse. He jokes that he's the
Speaker 3: invisible uncle and then asks if Tommy wants a drink.
Speaker 3: DJ and Steph both answer for him in unison iced
Speaker 3: tea lemon, no sugar. Jesse shakes his head. I say
Speaker 3: the magic word, Tommy, and bada bing, I'm back in
Speaker 3: the room. Steph grabs Tommy's arm and leads him to
Speaker 3: a nearby chair. She pulls out a box and says,
Speaker 3: I got the party pictures back. Here's a nice one
Speaker 3: of us, suitable for framing. DJ looks at her little
Speaker 3: sister in questions, don't you have something to do? And
Speaker 3: Steph narrows her eyes at the trader. Don't you worry
Speaker 3: your pretty little pointed head about me? This whole exchange
Speaker 3: is so great. Steph is just on her game, like
Speaker 3: she's just like, I'm going to embarrass discuss queen if
Speaker 3: it's the last thing I do. DJ frowns, I really
Speaker 3: don't think Tommy wants to look at pictures of a
Speaker 3: ten year old's birthday party, but Tommy insists that it's okay.
Speaker 3: Steph was prepared for this. No, DJ's right, you'd probably
Speaker 3: rather look at pictures of her. Steph proceeds to pull
Speaker 3: out a photo of DJ with the mumps. When she
Speaker 3: hands it to Tommy, she asks, doesn't she remind you
Speaker 3: of mister potato head? DJ quickly snatches it out of
Speaker 3: his hand, but then Steph shows off another photo of
Speaker 3: DJ's first bath. Again, DJ grabs it out of Tommy's hand,
Speaker 3: but Steph isn't done. She shows him another photo where
Speaker 3: you can see a rash on DJ's fanny, and DJ
Speaker 3: had it. She grabs her sister by the arm and
Speaker 3: tries to pull her upstairs to have a chat, but
Speaker 3: Stephanie breaks out of her grip and says, no, that's okay.
Speaker 3: I don't really feel like chatting. DJ angrily insists I
Speaker 3: do now. As Steph is being dragged upstairs, she calls
Speaker 3: out to her man, don't worry Tommy, I'll be right back,
Speaker 3: and DJ assures him no, she won't. I promise. As
Speaker 3: soon as they're upstairs in the kitchen, DJ shouts how
Speaker 3: could you do this to me? And Stephanie spits back,
Speaker 3: what about what you did to me? You backstabbing boyfriends,
Speaker 3: stealing trader? Oh, it's getting it's getting ugly. DJ is shocked.
Speaker 3: You thought Tommy was your boyfriend? You're dreaming, and Steph shouts,
Speaker 3: he was to my boyfriend. Jesse intervenes and tries to
Speaker 3: get them to calm down, but Stephanie continues he's going
Speaker 3: to dump you and come back to me after he
Speaker 3: finds out you drool in your sleep. DJ argues I
Speaker 3: do not, and Stephan says, yes, you do, and I
Speaker 3: have the picture to put it. Stuff comes with receipts.
Speaker 3: Impressed with this level of petty looks prepared.
Speaker 1: I knew it was gonna happen at some time. I
Speaker 1: didn't know what or when, but I knew i'd need
Speaker 1: the pictures.
Speaker 3: You're an A plus student and so prepared for these
Speaker 3: petty little arguments.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 3: So she holds the photo out of DJ's reach and smiles.
Speaker 3: You didn't know I took this, did you? I knew
Speaker 3: it would come in handy yep. Steph runs away, but
Speaker 3: DJ chases after her. The girls run into the living
Speaker 3: room and Jesse's on their tail trying to stop them.
Speaker 3: Joey and Danny don't know what's happening, but they follow
Speaker 3: after Jesse to try to help. They run back into
Speaker 3: the kitchen and the guys are finally able to separate
Speaker 3: the girls.
Speaker 1: When I kept coming around the kitchen table because there
Speaker 1: was that rug that like braided rug under it too,
Speaker 1: and I just wouldn't pick my feet up all the
Speaker 1: way and my toe would like catch and I would
Speaker 1: just eat it.
Speaker 3: Every single take you would fall, and I'm like, can
Speaker 3: we get some different blocking in here? You just kept falling,
Speaker 3: showing up.
Speaker 2: Child like you know what are you doing?
Speaker 1: You're like, you just choreographed all the time. When I fall,
Speaker 1: it's because my brain is over ahead of me already
Speaker 1: and I'm not in my body, so I'm not really
Speaker 1: paying attention to.
Speaker 3: Like how far I need to step up.
Speaker 2: Or do something, and then I fall.
Speaker 3: It's the easiest thing in the world, just got to
Speaker 3: run around the kitchen table. But nope, that's that is
Speaker 3: a challenge for little Jodi Sweeten. So Danny asks what
Speaker 3: is going on and Jesse emphasizes, next time you bring
Speaker 3: a star home, try Angela Lansbury. DJ is being held
Speaker 3: back by Danny, so she explains Stephanie thinks Tommy is
Speaker 3: her boyfriend and she's showing him embarrassing pictures of me.
Speaker 3: Steph argues, while being held back by Joey, he was
Speaker 3: to my boyfriend until you stole him. DJ Fire's back,
Speaker 3: You're insane, but Stephanie insists I am not insane. He
Speaker 3: signed my CD Love Tommy and Joey admits he signed
Speaker 3: my CD love Tommy, but Steph continues to defend her feelings.
Speaker 3: But he wrote a special song just for me, and
Speaker 3: he kissed me. I love him and he loves me.
Speaker 2: I at first it was Harry, Now it's Tommy.
Speaker 3: I know, like stuff is unlucky in love.
Speaker 2: He keeps stilling her men, I know this.
Speaker 3: It's so ugh darnut, older, sister, it's just how rude. Indeed,
Speaker 3: So Danny walks over to Stephanie and explains, look, Steph,
Speaker 3: I know you feel very strongly about this, and I
Speaker 3: don't mean to hurt your feelings, but I don't think
Speaker 3: this is really love. I think it's just a crush,
Speaker 3: you know. Jesse adds, Yeah, Steph, your dad's right. You know,
Speaker 3: when it's really love, your heart starts pounding and your
Speaker 3: toes curl and you start sweating. Danny glances at him
Speaker 3: or lairs at him. So Jesse backtracks and well, this
Speaker 3: isn't it. Joey grabs her hand and says that they
Speaker 3: all know what she's going through. Sometimes you wish for
Speaker 3: something so badly that you start believing it's true that
Speaker 3: now that's this is the good advice right here, coming
Speaker 3: from Joey ironically, Yeah, you feel for Steph. It's like
Speaker 3: no wonder she got caught up in all this excitement,
Speaker 3: DJ adds with a lot less empathy. Yeah, face reality,
Speaker 3: Tommy was just being nice. He's not in love with you,
Speaker 3: He's in love with me and the guys true old sister.
Speaker 3: She doesn't care that her sister is devastated.
Speaker 2: Watch Times.
Speaker 3: So the guys all look at DJ wide eyed, and
Speaker 3: Danny questions, when did this happen? You just met him?
Speaker 3: DJ explains, well, I know we only spent a couple
Speaker 3: of hours together, and it's true we haven't talked about
Speaker 3: commitment yet, but I think it's getting getting pretty serious.
Speaker 3: Danny asks, you know that nice little talk we just
Speaker 3: had with Stephanie, Well, right about now, I think we're
Speaker 3: gonna have that talk with you. DJ shakes her head
Speaker 3: in denial. Stephanie is a child. I am a woman.
Speaker 3: And then the offender, Tommy walks upstairs and obliviously asks,
Speaker 3: is it safe for me to come up yet?
Speaker 2: Dude?
Speaker 3: You caused this whole thing, like you've just been saying,
Speaker 3: waiting for your.
Speaker 2: Right clear this up and be like, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: I have I come from a family whose cultural background
Speaker 1: demands that we kiss people on the lips. And there
Speaker 1: must have been a great amount of confusion because need
Speaker 1: to be anything other than uh, hello, like.
Speaker 3: This dude, man, he causes all this chaos and then
Speaker 3: then just watches it unfold and yeah, you could have
Speaker 3: solved this at least eighteen minutes ago. So uh. DJ
Speaker 3: walks over to Tommy and asks, will you please straighten
Speaker 3: everybody out about what's going on between us? Tommy tells them, well,
Speaker 3: DJ and I had a really fun day and I
Speaker 3: hope that we could be good friends. DJ WinCE's friends.
Speaker 3: You mean just friends. Tommy finally responds, Yeah, I'm sorry
Speaker 3: if you misunderstood. How about you're sorry you gave her
Speaker 3: the wrong signals? Yes, sorry, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy sir. He
Speaker 3: had to have been directed to kiss people like I'm
Speaker 3: not blaming Tommy Page. I am blaming the writing on this.
Speaker 3: I'm assuming.
Speaker 1: Very clear, this is not this was not time. It
Speaker 1: was the writing of the episode that that is what
Speaker 1: caused the thing, right, So.
Speaker 3: It was the writing and the direction to hey, kiss
Speaker 3: these under girls on there.
Speaker 2: The first second we read that at.
Speaker 1: A table readly we've been like, uh, yeah, you guys,
Speaker 1: you can't have an adult Yeah, yess, that's weird.
Speaker 3: Yeah the legal department. A teacher is a social worker. Wait, yes,
Speaker 3: uh so Stephanie confidently barges over and pushes her way
Speaker 3: past DJ. Well, now that she's out of the way,
Speaker 3: I guess it's just you and me Thomas. Tommy breaks
Speaker 3: the news that he just wants to be friends with
Speaker 3: her as well, and Steph reacts the same way. You
Speaker 3: mean friends, like you're just friends with DJ. He nods,
Speaker 3: but Stephanie's in denial. You wrote love Tommy on my CD,
Speaker 3: he smiles. I always write love Tommy. Sometimes I'll even
Speaker 3: forget and write it for a guy. Yeah. This made
Speaker 3: me this. Since this episode, this has made me think
Speaker 3: or think twice about writing love Andrea Barber. When I'm
Speaker 3: signing autographs, it's like a.
Speaker 2: Little heart and my name because for that reason that
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't want to.
Speaker 3: Although there are some people that as you write me.
Speaker 2: A personalized note about how great we are together, You're like,
Speaker 2: I don't we can do that.
Speaker 3: I'll give you a little tiny heart and joy Sweeten.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, yes, And I mean I never
Speaker 1: thought about that. I really, you know, stopped kissing all
Speaker 1: my fans on the lips.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, I mean I.
Speaker 3: Learned that lesson, you know what I mean, that lesson
Speaker 3: at the tender age of eleven. But yeah, it never
Speaker 3: occurred to me that people could misinterpret. And I always
Speaker 3: used to write love and everything.
Speaker 2: I remember Gavin de Becker telling me as not well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, me and my mom as a kid, uh to
Speaker 1: not to specifically not write that down autographs and things,
Speaker 1: because it does give some people the wrong intention because
Speaker 1: they think it is just me that you're writing this too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, back to love Tommy, and sometimes he'll even forget
Speaker 3: and write it for a guy. Joey pipes up. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you gotta watch that. Tommy continues his apology tour. Look,
Speaker 3: I didn't mean to cause any trouble. He walks in
Speaker 3: between Stephan DJ and says, I hope you'll still come
Speaker 3: to my concert tonight. Okay, I gotta go. He shakes
Speaker 3: the guy's hands and tells them it was nice meeting
Speaker 3: them all.
Speaker 2: He should have kissed them all in the lips.
Speaker 3: I know, right, this is a double standard here.
Speaker 2: That's what you're doing when you say hello and bide people,
Speaker 2: you kiss them then.
Speaker 3: Uh so before you can go. Michelle walks in and
Speaker 3: she asks Tommy if he's leaving, and he kneels down
Speaker 3: to say, yeah, it was really great meeting you, Michelle,
Speaker 3: and he gives her a kiss on the cheek. Stop
Speaker 3: stop kissing, just stop, yes, like it's just too much kissing, don't.
Speaker 3: A wave from across the road is plenty.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pat on the shoulder, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: My god, yeah, this was this was excruciating to watch, Michelle,
Speaker 3: She grins. She falls for this. Wow, you are such
Speaker 3: a babe, And as Tommy walks out, she turns to
Speaker 3: the guys and declares, I'm gonna marry him, and Danny says,
Speaker 3: oh man, it never ends. All the Tanner girls, all
Speaker 3: three of them, and Kimmy are falling in love with
Speaker 3: this guy. So later on in the girl's room, Steph
Speaker 3: is solemnly sitting on her bed with mister Bear by
Speaker 3: her side, always there, I know. DJ walks in and
Speaker 3: she asks can I help you? DJ explains, well, I thought,
Speaker 3: if I'm miserable and you're miserable, we might as well
Speaker 3: be miserable together. Steph agrees, sit be miserable, DJ sits
Speaker 3: in her desk chair and admits, I was so dumb.
Speaker 3: I was so sure he liked me, and Steph jokes,
Speaker 3: at least you didn't make up wedding invitations.
Speaker 1: Have the calligrapher was such an expense. I really got
Speaker 1: the huge expence embossed. Uh yeah, envelopes and everything.
Speaker 3: With the wax on the stamp, with the wax on
Speaker 3: the back and everything for two and fifty people.
Speaker 2: That's not cheap.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Anyway, that's well, that's a big lesson learned. So
Speaker 3: DJ continues, you know what the weirdest part is.
Speaker 2: He kissed all these young girls on the lips. Yes,
Speaker 2: you're not wrong, I think is the weirdest part that is.
Speaker 3: That's one of the weirdest parts of this episode. Uh.
Speaker 3: DJ continues. Everything Dad, Joey and Uncle Jesse said was right,
Speaker 3: and I hate it when that happens. Steph realizes if
Speaker 3: this was just a crush, I don't know if I
Speaker 3: can take it when I really fall in love, what's
Speaker 3: that going to feel like. DJ doesn't know because she's
Speaker 3: never really been in love before, but she hears it's
Speaker 3: pretty intense. Just wait because Scott Wenger will be back
Speaker 3: next season when they officially start dating. So the other
Speaker 3: Steve will be back, Steve having Chang's name hyphen Hale.
Speaker 2: Yes, coming back, returning from the Witness production program.
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly, uh so, Steph nods, I hear the same thing.
Speaker 3: And then DJ gets out of her chair and sits
Speaker 3: next to Stephanie on her bed. You know what, I
Speaker 3: just realized. I'm sitting here talking to you about love
Speaker 3: and boys. Steph, you are really growing up. She can't
Speaker 3: help but agree. Ever since I turned ten, life got
Speaker 3: so complicated, truly preach.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: DJ goes on to say, well, one day we are
Speaker 3: going to be dating like crazy, and I want you
Speaker 3: to know that I will never ever steal one of
Speaker 3: your boyfriends, because guys are gonna come and guys are
Speaker 3: gonna go, But you and I will be sisters forever,
Speaker 3: and Steph smiles. Sisters forever, and they give each other
Speaker 3: a big hug. Ah. DJ demands and I want every
Speaker 3: one of those embarrassing pictures back, and Stephanie nods, you
Speaker 3: got it. But when DJ asks for the negatives, Steph says,
Speaker 3: we'll talk. As DJ leaves the room, Steph turns on
Speaker 3: her radio and plays Stephanie with a big smile on
Speaker 3: her face, and that is our show. That's our show.
Speaker 3: Whoa I think again, I will say I I loved
Speaker 3: this plot sty It was a.
Speaker 2: Cute storyline that was premit was executed with.
Speaker 3: Some poor direction, yes, but absolutely it was.
Speaker 2: Also it was also balanced out with great dancing, so
Speaker 2: fabulous dance. I feel like, yeah, it's yeah, I did.
Speaker 2: I forgot that he kissed everybody.
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't, just so weird. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: don't remember cringing quite this hard when we were shooting it.
Speaker 3: I was just more like, oh my god, Charlie, nobody, no,
Speaker 3: nobody's batter than eye back then.
Speaker 2: But it did.
Speaker 3: Okay. So so Tommy Page in real life was gay,
Speaker 3: but he was in the closet at this point, and
Speaker 3: I think his manner was working overtime to portray that
Speaker 3: he's straight so that the teenage fans would still be
Speaker 3: in love with him or whatever. So this episode really
Speaker 3: felt like it was just sort of a part of
Speaker 3: the propaganda to convinced well he was straight, and that
Speaker 3: gives me the ick, like I'm just like, well, and
Speaker 3: that was.
Speaker 1: I mean, how you know, I mean, even the sorry
Speaker 1: I'm having to send Zoe money right now because she's like,
Speaker 1: I need food.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's changed lunch.
Speaker 2: He kept calling me and I'm like, no, I record
Speaker 2: you know it. I mean, but that was very of
Speaker 2: the time, right. We made the joke about you know,
Speaker 2: George Michael and like that was you know, it was
Speaker 2: all you. They were all in the closet, which was unfortunate.
Speaker 3: It is unfortunate, and I mean, and that's still.
Speaker 2: True, right, I mean of.
Speaker 1: I mean, we've known actors and people that like, if
Speaker 1: they're you know, super hunky and good looking, like and
Speaker 1: they happen to be gay, oftentimes their team is like,
Speaker 1: don't be super out with it because you're gonna kill
Speaker 1: your audience of you know, eighteen forty five year old women,
Speaker 1: and yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Can only be a heart throb to the opposite set. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that was the mindset in the day. But well it
Speaker 3: was for Juan Pablo, like he mean, yeah, come a
Speaker 3: long time it came out.
Speaker 2: I wasn't going to it, but he was. He was
Speaker 2: an attractive guy. He talks about it, Yeah, he talks.
Speaker 1: About it, and so yeah, it's, uh, it is something unfortunate. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure and I'm sure it happens to women too,
Speaker 1: just it's not. Yeah, I still think culturally we don't
Speaker 1: freak out the same way, but it's.
Speaker 3: True, which is silly. We shouldn't agree either, But yeah,
Speaker 3: this was there was there was.
Speaker 1: This was one of those episodes that I was like,
Speaker 1: hmmm mm hmm, okay, well yeah, moving on, moving.
Speaker 3: Not right, and we I just couldn't figure out, Like,
Speaker 3: I don't think Tommy Page, the character was supposed to
Speaker 3: be a bad guy, like he came to this ten
Speaker 3: year old's birthday party and saying or a song like
Speaker 3: he's a good guy. Yeah, well meaning, but I felt
Speaker 3: like he was a bad guy because he caused all
Speaker 3: this drama and he led these girls on and he
Speaker 3: wouldn't stop kissing them on the mouth. And I'm just like,
Speaker 3: you give me the ick, but You're You're not written
Speaker 3: as a good guy, right, But it was executed as
Speaker 3: him being a creep, and I'm just like, I didn't
Speaker 3: like that. I think it did a disservice to Tommy Page.
Speaker 3: Yeah for sure, And it didn't it made this This
Speaker 3: episode didn't quite hit the way I wanted to do
Speaker 3: because of that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, look in twenty twenty five, we probably would
Speaker 2: have done it very.
Speaker 3: Differently, very very It's a you know, we hit a
Speaker 3: very nineteen.
Speaker 2: Ninety two moment in the last couple episodes of like.
