Speaker 1: And that's what you really missed with Jenna.
Speaker 2: And Kevin an iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 3: Welcome to and that's what you really missed Harry Potter
Speaker 3: and the Deathly Hollows Part one.
Speaker 2: That's what I wish we were recapping.
Speaker 1: Why don't we have a Harry Potter podcast.
Speaker 2: Okay, we probably know more about Harry Potter than we
Speaker 2: do about Glee. I think we'd probably be better at that.
Speaker 1: So okay, welcome to the show.
Speaker 2: Welcome to our first Glee wedding.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it feels like we have done a
Speaker 3: ton of weddings already, but we haven't.
Speaker 2: This is our first, right, yes, first and second because
Speaker 2: there are two in this.
Speaker 1: Episode, well sort of first and a half.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one point five. So here's what we're doing. Season two,
Speaker 2: episode eight firt, that originally aired on November twenty third,
Speaker 2: two thousand and.
Speaker 3: Ten, Thanksgiving time. Like at G six, was number one,
Speaker 3: and a song of the of the week, Harry Potter
Speaker 3: Deathly Hollers Part one seven of eight Harry Potter Movies
Speaker 3: was number one. Kevin, do you remember when we went
Speaker 3: to see this?
Speaker 2: No? Oh wait, did we see it at Arc Light
Speaker 2: at midnight?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 2: And did we dress up a little bit. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: I have pictures from this.
Speaker 1: So now you know. This was the first Harry Potter
Speaker 1: movie I'd ever seen.
Speaker 2: What a weird movie to come in on because it
Speaker 2: is so unlike all the other movies. It's my favorite
Speaker 2: Harry Potter movie.
Speaker 3: It's one of It's David's two. He puts it on
Speaker 3: all the time, and I'm like, why this one?
Speaker 2: See, I do think, I guess in terms of ones
Speaker 2: I watch the most, not because it's my favorite. I
Speaker 2: feel like it's the easiest to watch.
Speaker 1: It's this one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know why, you crazy girlfriend, I'm talking
Speaker 3: about Goblet of Fire.
Speaker 1: Like that's easy.
Speaker 2: I've seen Gobin a Fire too many times. It is
Speaker 2: an issue.
Speaker 1: I have to doing them all too many times.
Speaker 2: The reason I like this movie because you asked. I
Speaker 2: think this section of the book is not great, and
Speaker 2: it's the only movie that I think improves upon what's
Speaker 2: written in the.
Speaker 3: Book fair enough. I have to agree. I have to agree.
Speaker 3: They really did do something with it. I'm not sure
Speaker 3: I loved it, but they did do something.
Speaker 2: I also think it's the best acting in the entire series.
Speaker 1: It's like watching an indie film.
Speaker 2: Yeah, those three are acting.
Speaker 3: But yes, this was the first movie to come into
Speaker 3: and I was kind of confused, but I was just
Speaker 3: excited that everybody was so excited. So I was like
Speaker 3: into it. And that's when you let me all the books.
Speaker 3: And then I read all the.
Speaker 1: Books and then I got into the movies a little
Speaker 1: bit later. I had just refused to watch.
Speaker 3: The movies until I read the books, and then I
Speaker 3: finally read them all and watched and was like, this
Speaker 3: is what I've been missing. I can't believe I waited
Speaker 3: so long.
Speaker 2: But you didn't go back and read all the books, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw this movie.
Speaker 3: Then I was like, all right, I got to pop
Speaker 3: on the train. So then I got on all the
Speaker 3: books and then I went to the movies.
Speaker 1: I refused. I would not watch the movies without but
Speaker 1: except for you know.
Speaker 2: Part one, good for you.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so glad I did. I don't know
Speaker 1: what I was thinking.
Speaker 2: I'm glad we have that time of Harry Potter being clossover. No,
Speaker 2: if Harry Potter liked being untainted by the turf, oh.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, absolutely, it was such a pure, a purer,
Speaker 3: more innocent time.
Speaker 2: So also this week in Glee News, the American Music
Speaker 2: a warts happened, Darren meets Katy Perry, but the other
Speaker 2: boys we had already met Katy Perry because we had
Speaker 2: hosted the Teen Choice Awards with her No Big Deal, Chancie,
Speaker 2: and then shortly after we will be in her music
Speaker 2: video for Last Friday Night Fun, which I had to
Speaker 2: run out of a gay club a couple of weeks
Speaker 2: ago because they started playing it and I was really embarrassed,
Speaker 2: so I walked.
Speaker 1: Out, why are you embarrassed? It's such a great video.
Speaker 2: It is a great video. I don't know, because then
Speaker 2: you know, Mike friends and people started looking at me.
Speaker 3: It's like, hey, yeah, yeah, I hear that. Very exciting though.
Speaker 3: We'll have to talk about that one yes, when we
Speaker 3: get there. This episode was a new, brand new director,
Speaker 3: one and only Carol Banker, who was a part of
Speaker 3: the Glee crew for since season one, and she was
Speaker 3: the script supervisor. And now you obviously know that sometimes
Speaker 3: people asked to direct are interested in it and eventually
Speaker 3: they get a yes and Carol put in her time.
Speaker 3: So Carol's script supervisor, which, for people who don't know,
Speaker 3: there's a script supervisor on every every day on set,
Speaker 3: and they are taking copious amounts of notes on continuity.
Speaker 3: So if your hair was up in the last scene
Speaker 3: and in a red dress, then they make sure and
Speaker 3: they're the wardrobe. They turn the wardrobe to people like
Speaker 3: turn to them and are like, what day is this
Speaker 3: and then they're like, oh, she was in the red
Speaker 3: dress with their hair up, and then we have photo
Speaker 3: proof to refer to. And it's just all these crazy things.
Speaker 3: I did not explain that very well, but I.
Speaker 2: Mean even within a scene, it's like, if there's a
Speaker 2: take your first few takes, if you turn your head
Speaker 2: and let's say Jenna, your hair is down and half
Speaker 2: of it moves from behind your shoulder Tom in front
Speaker 2: of your shoulder, then that's what you need to do
Speaker 2: to match that every single time now and Carol, because
Speaker 2: we had so many people on our show, the script
Speaker 2: supervisor is paying attention to that many actors all at once.
Speaker 2: They're also making sure you're saying all the correct dialogue.
Speaker 2: If you drop a word, if you add a word,
Speaker 2: if you're improving, that person is going to come in
Speaker 2: and be like, so here's the actual line, and you
Speaker 2: do need to do it as written for all of
Speaker 2: the characters in every scene, every single take, all the time.
Speaker 2: And they also are taking the notes because they sit
Speaker 2: with the director and the DP and watch the takes
Speaker 2: and sometimes the director will be like, Okay, that's the
Speaker 2: take I want, so they can also mark those things
Speaker 2: down that this is the director's preferred take in the
Speaker 2: moment for the edit. So it is a huge job,
Speaker 2: huge responsibility, but they see everything because they're sort of
Speaker 2: at the epicenter where all the departments are talking to
Speaker 2: the director, to the DP and they're all going to
Speaker 2: that little area where the script supervisor sits. So Carol
Speaker 2: Banker got to step on up and then you know,
Speaker 2: shortly after then she goes off to direct all kinds
Speaker 2: of different things series.
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you for that, much better excellently than nonsense. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So Carol does this one, and this is one of
Speaker 3: many that she will also do on Glee. And we've
Speaker 3: got some special guest stars. We have the one and
Speaker 3: only Carol Burnett.
Speaker 1: It's very Carols.
Speaker 2: I watched this last night, and I watched the season finale,
Speaker 2: series finale of The Marvelous Missus Masel right after not
Speaker 2: realizing that there's a person playing Carol Burnett. And a
Speaker 2: young Carol Burnette in the finale of Mazel And then
Speaker 2: I woke up today and Carol Burnett is trending.
Speaker 1: Oh wow.
Speaker 2: Yes, and it's just a lot of Carol Burnette because
Speaker 2: she's an icon.
Speaker 1: Well, there's also a lot of Carols.
Speaker 3: We have Carol Banker, Carol Burnett, and Carol Hudson Humble.
Speaker 2: That's right, almost, yeah, she becomes Hudson Humble in this episode, right,
Speaker 2: I mean, how I mean, it was really special to
Speaker 2: talk to Jane when she was on about getting to
Speaker 2: work with Carol Burnett. How crazy you know?
Speaker 1: That is very surreal, very surreal.
Speaker 3: And also talking about Jane mentioned marrying herself, which I
Speaker 3: did not think was going to come so quickly.
Speaker 2: I did not think it was in this episode.
Speaker 1: I thought it was in like season six because it
Speaker 1: sounds like a season six move. Fair enough, very good,
Speaker 1: that's right.
Speaker 3: Tell me about the tell me about the songs in
Speaker 3: this episode.
Speaker 2: So we have Ohio, the song Ohio, marry you, sway
Speaker 2: and just the Way you Are. It's like a many
Speaker 2: early Bruno Mars tribute episode.
Speaker 3: Right. And then the overview of this episode is that
Speaker 3: Burt and Carroll announced that they got engaged, and Kurt
Speaker 3: takes on all the wedding planning and hires new Directions
Speaker 3: to perform at the wedding.
Speaker 1: Finn is a little hesitant, obviously for personal reasons. Sue
Speaker 1: also decides that she's going to get married, but she's
Speaker 1: gonna marry herself, and her mom comes to town. The
Speaker 1: one really Carol Burnett, and Sue is still principal and
Speaker 1: she is actually going to advocate for Kurt, so that
Speaker 1: is the overview.
Speaker 2: The real big star of this episode really is Carol Burnett.
Speaker 2: We've had a lot of really famous people on the
Speaker 2: show Legends, but I feel like Carol Burnett is a
Speaker 2: TV legend, yeah, icon. And what was wild for me
Speaker 2: watching this was knowing how much Jane admires her. And
Speaker 2: obviously this is not surprising, but the whole time I
Speaker 2: was watching Jane interact with Carol in character, I was
Speaker 2: just thinking about how much fun and also how hard
Speaker 2: it must be to stay in character, because I know
Speaker 2: when you're in scenes with a legendary actor, you're also
Speaker 2: sometimes aware of I am watching this really famous, incredibly
Speaker 2: talented person in front of me right now. Obviously, if
Speaker 2: you're like really talented, like Jane. You're probably just in
Speaker 2: it and you're doing the job. But it was so
Speaker 2: weird to see Jane play So Sylvester next to Carol Burnett. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: because I wanted her to just be Jane and like
Speaker 2: fawn over her.
Speaker 3: Right, and she was not doing that is not the
Speaker 3: character at all. So it's yeah, I must have been.
Speaker 3: I can only imagine. It's like very out outer body.
Speaker 2: It's very out of like their number together was just phenomenal.
Speaker 2: So let's talk about this storyline. We'll cook because this
Speaker 2: is the smaller storyline that happens in this but they
Speaker 2: do it in big way. So Carol Burnette shows up
Speaker 2: in Principal Sylvester's office, right, and we learned that she
Speaker 2: is Suceivester's mother and she's a famous Nazi hunter.
Speaker 1: We really love the Nazi hunters. Engley.
Speaker 2: Yeah, only it's very I mean, it's quite funny and
Speaker 2: they sort of go at it. Sue Sylvester has this
Speaker 2: complicated relationship with her mother and she overhears that Sue
Speaker 2: has decided that she's going to marry herself because Rod
Speaker 2: Reminkin is getting married and she's really embarrassed and furious
Speaker 2: about it. So no one can love her like herself,
Speaker 2: so she's going to marry herself. And Mama Sevester comes
Speaker 2: in is like, this is really sad and pathetic and
Speaker 2: has all these insults and it's a lot of you know,
Speaker 2: you abandon us, you abandon your daughters, you abandon me.
Speaker 2: I've been taking care of us, Like where have you been?
Speaker 2: And she's like, well, you know, off killing nazis right,
Speaker 2: But she's so funny.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's so funny.
Speaker 2: I know that's zero percent surprising that Kara Bournette is funny, right,
Speaker 2: but way to sell a qui storyline.
Speaker 1: A wild storyline.
Speaker 3: But then at the root of it, to be fair,
Speaker 3: and I don't know if this is just the magic
Speaker 3: of them where like or I mean a combination of
Speaker 3: the writing and the magic of them where it really
Speaker 3: does come back to a mother and daughter, right Like
Speaker 3: at the end, it really is just about in the
Speaker 3: in the auditorium, they're really that's the foundation of it.
Speaker 1: Is like a kind of a broken family.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, this is crazy, and I'm glad that
Speaker 3: there's a voice for reason that Doris is like, this
Speaker 3: is kind of crazy, but even more so it's funny
Speaker 3: because Doris is like, I can't believe that you're not
Speaker 3: letting me be a more central part of your wedding,
Speaker 3: right the age old you know, mother parents involved in
Speaker 3: the weddings.
Speaker 2: So did you love this number that they did together?
Speaker 3: I mean when she opened her mouth, I was like, right, right, right, right,
Speaker 3: that's Carol Burnett.
Speaker 2: It's wonderful that I also forgot Carol Burnett can sing,
Speaker 2: she can do everything.
Speaker 1: And it's a simple They just you know, like just
Speaker 1: let them do their thing, but.
Speaker 2: Not it's like not everybody can pull off that, you know,
Speaker 2: the dialogue in the middle of the song, and like
Speaker 2: they're both comedic geniuses. And they told the line of
Speaker 2: what you said of you know, identifying and representing that
Speaker 2: storyline the mother and daughter relationship that is serious but
Speaker 2: also in the context of the absurdity of what's going
Speaker 2: on in the situation around them, and it's just so
Speaker 2: beautifully done and puts the rest of us to absolute change.
Speaker 3: Jane, Yeah, I forgot how good that number was, and
Speaker 3: when I launched it, I was like, oh, right, this number,
Speaker 3: I think I don't remember it well. Right, It's probably
Speaker 3: because we were like, oh, this doesn't include us. Let's
Speaker 3: just go when we were back back in the day,
Speaker 3: you know, Well.
Speaker 2: That was one of those things too where it's like
Speaker 2: we got to have some of those amazing people on,
Speaker 2: but if we didn't interact with them exactly, and it
Speaker 2: wasn't even like we read the scripts. It wasn't that
Speaker 2: we were skipping it. It was that we were probably
Speaker 2: in dance rehearsal or recording or something, so we just.
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't meet Carol, did you.
Speaker 2: I think I did actually, or I saw her like
Speaker 2: we had a conversation as a group on the New
Speaker 2: York backlot, which is, you know, where our stages were.
Speaker 2: I think I did see her for a second, and
Speaker 2: it was just I don't think I spoke. I was
Speaker 2: sort of an awe.
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you say to the queen?
Speaker 2: So Sue decides to you know, if she's marrying herself,
Speaker 2: she's officiating the wedding. The wedding happens.
Speaker 1: At Jeans home.
Speaker 2: Jane is also just so talented as well. The three
Speaker 2: together just they are.
Speaker 1: It was a really crazy family.
Speaker 3: They really sold like a very kind of broken family,
Speaker 3: and it was really heart breaking.
Speaker 2: As crazy as it is that Adida's wedding dress is phenomenal.
Speaker 2: Carol Burnette's reaction to it is also phenomenal. She was
Speaker 2: all of us, she was.
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous, it's absolutely crazy.
Speaker 3: Lou Irich at her has her crazy, wonderful genius again.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So the Doris says that she still thinks this whole
Speaker 3: thing is absolutely crazy, and she's sad that she's not
Speaker 3: a part of more a part of the wedding. And
Speaker 3: and then Sue gives it to her, gives it to
Speaker 3: her mom. So she's a bully, which is then you
Speaker 3: are like, oh, I see where she Sylvester got it from.
Speaker 3: I see why she is the way she is, and
Speaker 3: you know, it's just her and Jean, and Sue says,
Speaker 3: you know, when I finally began to like who I am,
Speaker 3: when I stopped trying to please you, burn Burn burn
Speaker 3: burn is very It was the most profound thing I've
Speaker 3: heard you say.
Speaker 1: All right, and then Doris is uninvited to the wedding. Goodbye.
Speaker 2: That's that's a wrap on doors.
Speaker 3: And that's and that's a wrap on Carolbournett, and that's
Speaker 3: rap on Sue marrying Sue.
Speaker 2: And there it is, there, it is so the real
Speaker 2: meat of this episode is the wedding that happens in
Speaker 2: record time.
Speaker 1: I thought. I was like already.
Speaker 2: I was like, we don't want to just drag this
Speaker 2: wedding preparation out for a couple episodes.
Speaker 1: Right, No, that's not the Kurt's just a magician, that's
Speaker 1: not the Ryan Murphy style. No.
Speaker 2: No, they want to introduce it and wrap it up
Speaker 2: within forty two minutes.
Speaker 3: So Bert and Carol's surprise Kurt in fin at school
Speaker 3: and they tell them that they got engaged. And Kurt
Speaker 3: is so excited. He's got the wedding planning under He's
Speaker 3: got it, you know, from the trunk full of wedding
Speaker 3: liazines under his bed instead of all the other things
Speaker 3: that boys have under the bed. And Finn is seemingly
Speaker 3: not so excited. He's a bit shocked. Feels a bit
Speaker 3: soon probably, And Burt and carrellly going to Waikiki for
Speaker 3: their honeymoon take me with You, and Bert wants a
Speaker 3: really good band, so Kurt is going to enlist new
Speaker 3: directions to because we're a really good band.
Speaker 2: We're a great band, a wedding band. We have a
Speaker 2: band that place with us, that is a really band
Speaker 2: that's actually a band. Yeah, so glee wedding. So simultaneously
Speaker 2: what's going on with Kurt, right, is that Kurt's getting
Speaker 2: bullied by Krowski still, and there's this power dynamic and
Speaker 2: shift where Finn is feeling sort of pushed aside because
Speaker 2: he felt like he was blindsided by this whole wedding.
Speaker 2: Kurt's taking the lead, I'm gonna take it over. And
Speaker 2: then at the same time, Kurt's getting bullied and shoved aside,
Speaker 2: and Finn was not stepping up to the plate as
Speaker 2: now he's about to be his step brother, and everyone
Speaker 2: wants Finn to be a leader, and Kurt is like,
Speaker 2: you are the leader. You need to step up, and
Speaker 2: like I'm going to teach you to learn a dance
Speaker 2: for this wedding, and you're gonna give yourself and you're
Speaker 2: gonna give your mom away and all these things, and
Speaker 2: Finn is just sort of resistant to all of it.
Speaker 2: But he's like, actually, you're right, I can be a
Speaker 2: leader if I step up and I learned to dance.
Speaker 2: But then when he's actually push comes to shove, and
Speaker 2: it's time for the glee club to enlist him because
Speaker 2: the girls have this great scene, right where all of
Speaker 2: you girls pull together who have boyfriends on the football
Speaker 2: team or boyfriends, right, and you're going to enlist their
Speaker 2: help to go after Krofsky, to threaten Krossky, like stay
Speaker 2: away from Kurt. And when Finn's approached about it, he's like,
Speaker 2: I can't, it's going to jeopardize you know, football team,
Speaker 2: my future. But at the same time, it's like Sam's
Speaker 2: also trying to get his spot back as quarterback. But
Speaker 2: when the time comes and they actually do approach Krofsky
Speaker 2: about it, Sam steps up in a big way and
Speaker 2: gets into that fight.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that locker see room scene was really great. So
Speaker 3: when the girls enlist the boys to do it.
Speaker 1: They go and.
Speaker 3: They really do confront Krossky and he's kind of cornered,
Speaker 3: And I was.
Speaker 2: Proud of the boys for all the stupid things they
Speaker 2: do to this. This is good, No, it was.
Speaker 3: It was really good, and it gave the the storyline
Speaker 3: some more gravity that people were actually taking it a
Speaker 3: little bit more seriously or giving it more notice and attention,
Speaker 3: which I thought, like, Okay, finally they were not just
Speaker 3: saying like, oh, yeah, there's nothing we can do, which
Speaker 3: is a whole other thing.
Speaker 1: In the principal's office.
Speaker 2: Well it also like, yeah, did make up for a
Speaker 2: couple of episodes ago when Kurt really was getting the
Speaker 2: shit beat out of him by nobody? Is yeah, and
Speaker 2: she was just like, I know, you're not happy. Where
Speaker 2: at least they you know, they took her into the
Speaker 2: principal's office and Sue really grounded is explaining that nobody
Speaker 2: saw it. You weren't hurt this time, right, And he
Speaker 2: doesn't really feel yet that he you know, his life
Speaker 2: was threatened, right, And so nothing really happens, and then
Speaker 2: they go after Kofski to try to.
Speaker 3: What did you guys have have like a stunt double
Speaker 3: or anything for you falling out of the wait and
Speaker 3: everything that's not you.
Speaker 1: I don't think.
Speaker 2: No, they wouldn't let us do any stunts.
Speaker 1: I was very impressed because I thought thought it was
Speaker 1: you that went down.
Speaker 2: No, there was no even if we even suggested, like nope,
Speaker 2: but that's fine. I mean, there are incredibly talented stunt people.
Speaker 2: That's their profession. Leave it to the professionals totally, except
Speaker 2: I was pushing to the pool. That was me, but
Speaker 2: because that was not planned. But besides that, yeah, we
Speaker 2: had we had an incredible stunt team.
Speaker 3: Yes we did, and yeah, Sam really takes a beating
Speaker 3: for him and really and really goes to goes to
Speaker 3: the map no, but intended with with Krofski for Kurt
Speaker 3: and that, Yeah, they gave the whole thing a little
Speaker 3: bit more gravity. So yeah, I think that was frustrating
Speaker 3: to me. When Sue takes them into the office and
Speaker 3: even though she really is advocating for him and is
Speaker 3: actually taking this seriously and not you know, just kind
Speaker 3: of being Sue, it was It's upsetting because that's crazy
Speaker 3: that all of that that happened still wasn't enough to
Speaker 3: get Kroftski, you know, suspended.
Speaker 2: Right, And it's not like, I mean every time that happened,
Speaker 2: he was in the hallway full of kids. So it's
Speaker 2: not like there's not witnesses to any of this happening exactly,
Speaker 2: but at least, I mean, I guess better late than
Speaker 2: ever that it's finally being addressed because we need it
Speaker 2: for this other plot point that happens at the end. Right,
Speaker 2: So then this wedding happens and Santana approaches Finn Frankentine,
Speaker 2: which was Corey's Twitter handle for a long time, and
Speaker 2: it was like, look, if you want to be a
Speaker 2: leader and get your cool status back, then like we
Speaker 2: should maybe tell everyone that we did it last year.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I can't. This is sweet. This is
Speaker 2: the fincial, you know, relationship that we all know and love.
Speaker 2: Where he's like, I can't tell her because I love
Speaker 2: her and I don't want to break her heart and
Speaker 2: it's going to break her heart. But their scene was
Speaker 2: so great together.
Speaker 1: I really like Santana Infant together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're very good together. Yes, it was sort of
Speaker 2: similar also in like real life, where they're obviously very
Speaker 2: different people, but to me, they sort of filled similar
Speaker 2: roles amongst like our friend group. They were really good
Speaker 2: at getting us all together. They were all about the
Speaker 2: camaraderie and making sure like we stayed together and stayed friends,
Speaker 2: whether it was events or house parties, whatever it was
Speaker 2: right they and they were also just two of like
Speaker 2: the nicest and funniest people right like they always, I
Speaker 2: don't know, were mirrors to me of each other.
Speaker 1: So interesting. I didn't think about it because.
Speaker 2: They're completely they're so different, but it was almost their
Speaker 2: dynamic within our ranks was similar. Yeah, like they operated
Speaker 2: two different ways, but what they were trying to accomplish
Speaker 2: was the same. Does that make sense?
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, totally, I just didn't say it that way.
Speaker 2: They're very, very talented actors, and so yeah, getting to
Speaker 2: watch some plays wild the best.
Speaker 1: Okay, so we get to the church, they get married.
Speaker 2: Did you know the song marry You before this?
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: I had never heard it before. Oh, it was so
Speaker 2: fairly new.
Speaker 1: It was fairly new.
Speaker 3: I was running that album into the ground though at
Speaker 3: that point, so I think that's why I knew it
Speaker 3: and was very excited for it.
Speaker 2: How fun were these two days at this church?
Speaker 1: I mean the most fun.
Speaker 3: First of all, that number Mary was specifically was ridiculous,
Speaker 3: and it was so much I remember rehearsing it.
Speaker 2: I think very rehearsed it.
Speaker 3: It was a very quick It was like Zach and
Speaker 3: Brooke like running down the aisle being like do this
Speaker 3: or have fun and be stupid and you know, go
Speaker 3: for it.
Speaker 2: And it was really sweet. All these pairings and groupings.
Speaker 3: Yes, I really had a great time filming this and Romi,
Speaker 3: which we hadn't really worked with Romy all that much yet.
Speaker 3: And yeah, and we love Romy and we loved Romy
Speaker 3: and we loved watching her do her thing with Finn.
Speaker 3: But you know, it's a lot of Corey and and
Speaker 3: romy To. So when romy came to this wonderful wedding,
Speaker 3: she's like, what are we doing here? She comes with
Speaker 3: this stuffel bag into our trailers and is like pulls
Speaker 3: out like I got patron. She literally brought the kids patron.
Speaker 2: But I will say she did not tell she had
Speaker 2: patron until we got to the reception, when we weren't
Speaker 2: really doing anything. Yeah, you know, we had to like
Speaker 2: really perform marry you and all that. Oh yeah, sit
Speaker 2: through that emotional scene. But when we were tequila at
Speaker 2: that point, No, there was a lot of like hours
Speaker 2: and hours of us sitting at those tables in the
Speaker 2: reception room.
Speaker 1: I bought her from my memory.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just remember. I don't remember performing at the
Speaker 2: reception at all, zero record. I just remember sitting at
Speaker 2: that table for hours.
Speaker 1: You know why, though, Kevin is because it was really quick.
Speaker 3: We really shot that really quickly, so they spent a
Speaker 3: lot of time on Sway.
Speaker 1: Yes, Sway took a very long time, and I remember
Speaker 1: the time. Yes.
Speaker 3: So let's talk about what we talked about last week'st
Speaker 3: in the teaser for last week's episode.
Speaker 1: Diana, Leah, Me and me at the time were vegetarians pescatarians.
Speaker 1: If you will we eat fish. Yeah. Diana was like,
Speaker 1: I think gravy meat and I was like me too.
Speaker 1: She's like she was just have some meat and I
Speaker 1: was like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and she's like and then came Wendy's. Who got
Speaker 3: the Wendy's?
Speaker 2: So I was trying to remember this. I think Transpo.
Speaker 2: I think Transpo Seth.
Speaker 1: It was close by. That's why they were.
Speaker 2: I think they were maybe running to Wendy's get lunch
Speaker 2: for themselves.
Speaker 1: We're like, can you get it for twenty of us?
Speaker 2: It was just like the three or it was like
Speaker 2: three or four of us. I think it was just
Speaker 2: the three of us.
Speaker 1: That's chicken sandwich man, and.
Speaker 2: We sat on our trailer floor. Oh, the two of
Speaker 2: you break that pescatarianism before my eyes, and you were
Speaker 2: both so worried you're going to get sick. Neither of
Speaker 2: you did. Now you're fine because maybe it's not real chicken.
Speaker 1: It probably wasn't. It's probably rubber but so good.
Speaker 3: But it was delicious and also, like we barely ever
Speaker 3: got to go shoot on location.
Speaker 2: We were on the stages of Paramount all the time,
Speaker 2: and so we were somewhere at a church it felt
Speaker 2: like Kid's house. Were out there's patron and chicken sandwiches,
Speaker 2: chicken sandwiches, and we had a great time. It was
Speaker 2: also did I think they were like paparazzi shots as well,
Speaker 2: because we were always on the lot, So I was
Speaker 2: also you know, an early time for us of having
Speaker 2: to experience paparazzi in that way while we're shooting.
Speaker 3: Yes, because when we shot sectionals and regils last time,
Speaker 3: there wasn't a lot of paparazzi. But as we started
Speaker 3: to get to these bigger like locations and people found
Speaker 3: out they would have to put base camp behind like
Speaker 3: fences or gates or put up walls for us because
Speaker 3: it got a little crazy starting probably now, you're right,
Speaker 3: there were a lot.
Speaker 1: Of paparazzi shots. Do you remember we went to that park?
Speaker 2: Yes, the Swings.
Speaker 3: So we found a park at lunch and we walked
Speaker 3: to the park and we got on the swings and
Speaker 3: we're in our red dresses. I am with the flowers
Speaker 3: on our hair, with sweatpants under swinging. Yeah, the Swings.
Speaker 3: We were really living our lives.
Speaker 1: We were like, we're right.
Speaker 2: Because I felt like we didn't have a lot to do.
Speaker 2: We're in a lot of the wedding, but I don't
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of setup.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of Roamy, a lot of extras, a
Speaker 3: lot of Mike, a lot of Kurt and Finn.
Speaker 1: So I feel like we were like, wo, just having
Speaker 1: a ball.
Speaker 2: I would like to point out two serious things. The
Speaker 2: Bert and Carol vows.
Speaker 4: Just kill me now. It was really really how I
Speaker 4: have goosebumps now. Those two they to deliver us a hawk.
Speaker 4: I want them to be in everything, everywhere, all at once.
Speaker 4: I love them so much. They're so good together. I mean,
Speaker 4: we were so lucky that we were surrounded by so
Speaker 4: many talented actors to.
Speaker 1: Lift us up.
Speaker 2: You know, growing up, Michael Maalley was the host of
Speaker 2: that Nickelodeon.
Speaker 3: Show Global Guts and then Global Guts, and I had
Speaker 3: no idea just how good of an actor and a
Speaker 3: good man, like just a good person.
Speaker 1: Now sometimes you just got to pay the bills.
Speaker 2: Oh, I get it, as I've a host that shows myself.
Speaker 3: No, he's really such a wonderful man, such a wonderful man,
Speaker 3: what a talented bunch and the.
Speaker 2: Other thing, the other aspect of this, because Finn's been
Speaker 2: you know when the Glee club boys minus Finn confronted Kurowski,
Speaker 2: I mean Tina really went hard on him, saying, you know,
Speaker 2: everyone was there except Finn, and he was feeling it.
Speaker 2: And I think during that wedding ceremony he really realized
Speaker 2: I messed up and I need to somethings are more important.
Speaker 2: We're now family and he does this whole number to
Speaker 2: surprise Kurt, and it's so sweet two together. Oh my,
Speaker 2: Michael Malley's face. When Michael Mallley realizes what's going on,
Speaker 2: you have to look at his face. Right before kurkly
Speaker 2: Finn go get Carol and Bert from the table to
Speaker 2: join them, he is just on the verge of breaking
Speaker 2: into tears and it is this I'm full goosebumps right now.
Speaker 2: Can you see it on camera? I don't know if
Speaker 2: you can see it, no, but it was I you
Speaker 2: know when you see a parent cry, Oh God, And
Speaker 2: it was just so sweet.
Speaker 3: No, it's really Corey too knows how to really give
Speaker 3: a good, good monologue.
Speaker 1: He knows how to deliver.
Speaker 2: And we had had so much tequila by that point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, probably all those.
Speaker 2: Reactions of us dancing to Sway, I was like, do
Speaker 2: we look drunk?
Speaker 1: Probably the record.
Speaker 2: We didn't get drunk. I don't think any of us
Speaker 2: got drunk. We just like took a shot this time. No,
Speaker 2: we were scared and like ROMI also was not trying
Speaker 2: to get anybody in trouble, and so like we were
Speaker 2: just you know, one little shot, just for a.
Speaker 1: Little sippy, for good measure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just but maybe this was the beginning of what
Speaker 2: caused Blame it on the alcohol. So let's just mark this.
Speaker 1: Let's see Roy's fault, It's Romy's fault.
Speaker 3: So then yeah, so Finn redeems himself, Carol and Bert
Speaker 3: are married, there's a new union, and we get into
Speaker 3: this much more serious, deeper storyline where we've mentioned Krofsky
Speaker 3: is still tormenting Kurt and he he really gets in
Speaker 3: his face this time around, and Kurt says, he feels
Speaker 3: like he's in a horror movie where he just never
Speaker 3: knows what's going to happen, and he doesn't know what
Speaker 3: cross he is capable of, capable, well.
Speaker 1: Tina capable of that. He you know, after his life
Speaker 1: has been threatened.
Speaker 3: And to wrap it all up, I mean, Sue has
Speaker 3: really advocated for Kurt. She's like, there's not a lot
Speaker 3: I can do, but if I see it myself, I
Speaker 3: really will. I will come for him, and I will
Speaker 3: I will get him out for you.
Speaker 2: Well, and Kurt admits to Finn and Bert that well,
Speaker 2: he admits to Finn right that like his life was threatened.
Speaker 2: And then we go into like a whole different gear, right,
Speaker 2: and then Sue is like, no, no, no, no, we're
Speaker 2: not doing this. You're expelled, You're out, and I appreciate it. Also,
Speaker 2: you know how they portrayed the Krofsky dad and right
Speaker 2: because he didn't believe his son, right, he knows something's up.
Speaker 2: And they bring Kurt back in like, look, because there
Speaker 2: are no witnesses to any of this, we can't we
Speaker 2: can't expel him. So he's coming back to school. And
Speaker 2: then Sue says, Figgins is coming back. I can't help
Speaker 2: you from this office, but if I'm in the hallways,
Speaker 2: I can be another set of eyes eyes, right, and
Speaker 2: I can.
Speaker 1: Help you well.
Speaker 3: And then to rewind a little bit, Bert Bert is
Speaker 3: being helped by Kurt and Finn.
Speaker 1: With his dancing right right.
Speaker 3: They're helping Bert and he sees Krofsky, and at this
Speaker 3: point Finn knows about the threat, and Bert's like, what
Speaker 3: is that? And Krofsky's kind of like walking by the hallway,
Speaker 3: and Finn's like, if you don't tell him, I will,
Speaker 3: So m Kurt has to tell Bert what happens, and
Speaker 3: Bert comes charging out as a father should and would
Speaker 3: do again another wonderful performance by Mike O'Malley, just taking
Speaker 3: Kofski down Zong as far as anybody will let him,
Speaker 3: and let a grown man take a child down or
Speaker 3: a teen, And so that's kind of what kick starts
Speaker 3: Burt finding out, that's how Bert finds out, yes, and
Speaker 3: then we fast forward to where we just left off,
Speaker 3: where Krofsky's coming back to school, and so Carol and
Speaker 3: Bert obviously take as the parents and as the voice
Speaker 3: of reason should, and the people in control tell Kurt
Speaker 3: that they're going to take their honeymoon money and they're
Speaker 3: going to give it to him for a Dalton. So
Speaker 3: Kurt comes into the choir room, misters, she's all excited
Speaker 3: to give him a solo for regionals, which probably wouldn't
Speaker 3: lie anyway, you know, Rachel's going to get it, and
Speaker 3: Kurt says that he is leaving, and everybody's really kind
Speaker 3: of taking this seriously. But I don't think this seriously
Speaker 3: up to this point more serious enough.
Speaker 1: Where we're going to lose Kurt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which I understood, like like zero tolerance and I
Speaker 3: wouldn't feel safe there.
Speaker 1: And good for Kurt.
Speaker 2: I love you know, Holp said everyone is because oh yeah, again,
Speaker 2: like the this show being on a network in twenty
Speaker 2: ten and you have the gay character who's arguably one
Speaker 2: of the biggest characters on the show and beloved by
Speaker 2: all the other characters in the show, and to see
Speaker 2: how that affects them, where he's become so popular and
Speaker 2: so vital to their friend group and glee club, and
Speaker 2: it was just really profound and moving to me in
Speaker 2: that way. And Amber getting up and just saying Kurt
Speaker 2: and there's no other line, and it's like, broke my heart.
Speaker 3: No where it's one of us, and he's also going
Speaker 3: to be competing against us.
Speaker 2: Of course Rachel points that out immediately, but fair because
Speaker 2: the next episode.
Speaker 1: It's so exciting special education. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Side note, This other thing that happened during this episode
Speaker 2: was Sam and Quinn. Sam is fully obsessed with Quinn
Speaker 2: basically proposes and like, here's a promise. Why She's like, no,
Speaker 2: you're crazy. But after watching how he's stuck up for Kurt,
Speaker 2: by the end of the episode, she's like, you didn't
Speaker 2: even notice somewhere in your ring and it was just
Speaker 2: really sweet, you know, a little like sub storyline that
Speaker 2: was woven in there. And they're really sweet together, and
Speaker 2: he's making her feel comfortable after having a terrible previous year, right,
Speaker 2: and yeah, really they're just really cute to get too.
Speaker 2: So that's the episode. Should we get into some tarty
Speaker 2: takes real quick, let's do it? Okay, my cringe. As
Speaker 2: much as I love everything else happening, it Sue marrying
Speaker 2: herself and like kissing her own hand really made me
Speaker 2: feel comfortable.
Speaker 3: It made me really a control that I don't even
Speaker 3: want to talk about. Yeah, exactly, I'll take that one too.
Speaker 2: Best dance move, I mean Everyone's little thing, very yeah,
Speaker 2: so cute, what a cute thing.
Speaker 1: Best song.
Speaker 2: I would say, marry you.
Speaker 1: I would say just the way you are.
Speaker 2: They're both great.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The best performance by a prop oh, I mean my
Speaker 3: ribbons are pretty great. I will say the tequila camera working.
Speaker 2: And the best lines, I mean the vows.
Speaker 1: The vows are great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So this is the one, this whole really,
Speaker 3: I really love Jane's performance.
Speaker 1: She just.
Speaker 3: Played this the seriousness of Kirk being bullied and harassed
Speaker 3: and threatened so beautifully with the comedy of Sue Sylvester.
Speaker 3: She always does it so beautiful, but this one in particular,
Speaker 3: when she's like, it was so serious about him being
Speaker 3: her assed and how there's not a lot she could
Speaker 3: do and you know.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: But then she says she's calling him a lady, and
Speaker 3: he's like, that's actually bullying, and she's like, okay, noted,
Speaker 3: and then the term is so fast, but it's so serious.
Speaker 3: In the delivery, she says, I'll allow you to choose
Speaker 3: from the following nicknames then Gilfling, Porcelain, and chicklemy Dove,
Speaker 3: and Chris says, I guess I'll go with Porcelain.
Speaker 2: She's like, I was really hoping protect so good, very funny.
Speaker 2: So the ship we found on TikTok, let's do it never.
Speaker 2: Ben Finer on TikTok posted the Sesame Street parody of
Speaker 2: Glee No and said never forget the most accurate parody
Speaker 2: of Glee ever. And they talked about the letter G. No,
Speaker 2: it's called G stop and it's a full recreation of
Speaker 2: the set. The characters all in Sesame Street form.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not regionals, it's genals.
Speaker 1: Is it real? This is really Sesame Street did this?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 2: What, it's incredible, It's absolutely incredible. You find a song
Speaker 2: with a letter G Sylvester, there's everybody. It is stop
Speaker 2: crazily good. I don't understand how these things happen.
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is amazing.
Speaker 2: There's a song.
