Speaker 1: I am all in, I am all in with Scott
Speaker 1: Patterson and I heart radio podcast. I got all misty
Speaker 1: on this episode. I got misty. I missed my sister's
Speaker 1: I missed my family. It's just like, Wow, the thanks
Speaker 1: the whole the whole thanksgiving me really is another Dan
Speaker 1: Palladino masterpiece, another Kenya, another Kenny Ortega masterpiece. And we'll
Speaker 1: get into the details of why. I think why I
Speaker 1: know that this was extra special episode. Yes, I think
Speaker 1: it's interesting that two iconic episodes, which I didn't realize
Speaker 1: until we did this podcast, we're both directed by Kenny Ortega.
Speaker 1: What's the other one, the day Dance? Oh that was Kenny,
Speaker 1: of course. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Yeah, be It's like, yes,
Speaker 1: two of the best episodes of the whole series. So
Speaker 1: we went back to back. I think was there one
Speaker 1: in between there? Yeah, there was Yale, right, so there
Speaker 1: was they shoot Gilmore. Don't say than Yale than this
Speaker 1: Kenn Artega. So have a question when you guys say,
Speaker 1: like your top favorite Gilmore episodes, like how many are there?
Speaker 1: Because two back to back, Like I'm stressed that we're
Speaker 1: not going to have the best episodes something. Oh, my god. Total.
Speaker 1: So I would say there's ten for me that really
Speaker 1: stand out. Maybe maybe a little bit more, maybe ten, twelve. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's I don't know. They just keep getting better. They're
Speaker 1: so good and then you don't think they can top them,
Speaker 1: and then they just get better. And this one was
Speaker 1: a prime example. It's like and and better in a
Speaker 1: in a different way though. I mean, it's like showing
Speaker 1: you know, different h you know, different variations on their
Speaker 1: writing style and their tone, and you know how they
Speaker 1: treat the holiday. And if one I think it's very
Speaker 1: interesting is how they treat Thanksgiving in this town and
Speaker 1: you get to juxtapose that on how you do it
Speaker 1: and how the rest of the country does it, and
Speaker 1: it's just it's just so unique and wonderful and interesting.
Speaker 1: So anyway, let's get started. Hey everybody, I'm Scott Patterson.
Speaker 1: This is the I m All in Podcast Radio one
Speaker 1: eleven Productions. We have our ball club to Tara s Hello,

Speaker 1: man Is Kim is Yeah, you guys, first of all,
Speaker 1: happy Thanksgiving? Should I give us synopsis? And and you
Speaker 1: know what, before we get too far down away from
Speaker 1: the station here the trains pulling out, Let's let's have
Speaker 1: Danielle our conductor, collecting tickets, making announcements of stops. You know,
Speaker 1: I do this for everyone listening because they are very
Speaker 1: very adamant about having a synopsis. No, no, you need it,
Speaker 1: next stop, Hartford connect stop, No, go ahead, Danielle so good?
Speaker 1: All right, He's in three, episode nine, a deep fried
Speaker 1: Korean Thanksgiving synopsis. Lorela and Rory's Thanksgiving day is packed
Speaker 1: as they have committed to four dinners. Lane and Dave's
Speaker 1: relationship takes a big leap forward. Zuki is upset because
Speaker 1: Jackson is frying a turkey, and Rory tells her family
Speaker 1: she applied to Yale as a backup her adopts of
Speaker 1: meme Cat. That's part of the show was that Kirk
Speaker 1: adopts a meme cat. Plus Dean stands up to Jazz
Speaker 1: after seeing him kiss Rory right in front of Lukes.
Speaker 1: You know, you're going to have to organize this man,
Speaker 1: because like, I'm just going to go off on everything.
Speaker 1: I want to start with the fact that they were
Speaker 1: watching Gray Gardens. Did you guys, Did you guys know
Speaker 1: what that was? I did not know what that was,
Speaker 1: and all I heard was Kennedy and eccentric Kennedy family,
Speaker 1: and I thought, oh, that's fun, but I didn't know
Speaker 1: what it was. From Tara will Phillison later this week
Speaker 1: on Pop Culture. But so, Gray Gardens was like two things.
Speaker 1: So it was it was like a documentary about those
Speaker 1: two women that were related to Jackie Kennedy, and they
Speaker 1: basically were like kind of high salutant ladies, a mother
Speaker 1: and a daughter, a very high falutin family, and the
Speaker 1: husband leaves and then they just live in this Gray
Speaker 1: Gardens mansion for the rest of their lives together with
Speaker 1: just like cats and newspapers and like. So then okay,
Speaker 1: so it was a documentary on the real ladies. And
Speaker 1: then they made a movie with Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lane,
Speaker 1: like recreating the documentary, and I was like, so disturbed
Speaker 1: by it, Like I where were they living? Where were
Speaker 1: they living in like some one of those fancy places
Speaker 1: on the East coast, the Hampton's or something. I don't
Speaker 1: have to learn more. I can only just sort of
Speaker 1: paraphrase it. So they were just like completely botso buffo.
Speaker 1: They went, they went, they went like they were pretty
Speaker 1: much together, like they had there. They were fancy people,
Speaker 1: fancy family who once the husband left and the mother
Speaker 1: and the daughter just thickest the and it just went weird,
Speaker 1: you know. And then this crew comes out to the
Speaker 1: house and discovers it and it's all like broken down,
Speaker 1: and they're no, no, no, nobody's crazy. Nobody's crazier than
Speaker 1: the rich, right, nobody. I mean, you know that old
Speaker 1: joke that the comedians they tell that old joke every
Speaker 1: time the aristocrats. You know that joke the aristocrats. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know it, but I just don't know that joke. No,
Speaker 1: but these are nutty rich people. So there's a joke,
Speaker 1: there's a joke that all of these you know, it's
Speaker 1: like the most famous and the most fun joke to
Speaker 1: tell because it's like completely it's like you can just
Speaker 1: say anything, right because the punch line is The Aristocrats,
Speaker 1: Like that's the punch line. And you know, I know
Speaker 1: I saw this movie and it's like, you wouldn't believe
Speaker 1: this film I saw, and you know, and I don't
Speaker 1: want to get into it. But it's all X rated
Speaker 1: stuff and you can just say anything you want. You
Speaker 1: can say the most disgust us, think gross things that
Speaker 1: people are doing to each other, all these kind of things,
Speaker 1: and then you can go over ten minutes and people
Speaker 1: are laughing that I can't can't believe what's going on
Speaker 1: with what's coming out of his mouth. How X rated
Speaker 1: it is, the whole thing, and then he goes he
Speaker 1: asked me what the name of the movie wasn't what's
Speaker 1: the name of the movie? The Aristocrats? Seriously, it's kind
Speaker 1: of great gardens issue. It's almost like they were so
Speaker 1: quirky and kind of weird. But when I want you
Speaker 1: guys to watch the Drew Barrymore version because it like
Speaker 1: almost breaked me out, Like I was like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to watch this ever again, So why would we
Speaker 1: want to see Why would we want to see it once?
Speaker 1: Because I need you if you don't want to see
Speaker 1: it ever again. If it was that dramatic and experience.
Speaker 1: Didn't I talk about the bad Ben Affleck movie that
Speaker 1: I need everyone to watch. Tell me it was terrible. Like,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of them, so which one paycheck paycheck?
Speaker 1: But no deep water? Deep water? The water was pretty bad. Dude,
Speaker 1: who's in deep water? Ben Affleck and on a dar
Speaker 1: miss And I thought it was one of the worst
Speaker 1: movies I've ever seen in my whole life. The scary one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very recent because he just was in a relationship
Speaker 1: with her. Yeah, that's atrocious. It's such a bad movie.
Speaker 1: And I'm a big I like Ben Affleck. I almost
Speaker 1: wanted to stop watching it, and then I had to
Speaker 1: convince myself, don't give up, don't give up, Like try
Speaker 1: to see what happens. And it's so dumb. Did you
Speaker 1: think it was dumbed her? Yeah? I just the whole time.
Speaker 1: I was like, if this was real life, this relationship
Speaker 1: would have ended. Like five minutes into the movie, we
Speaker 1: go back to Gray Gardens. So I want you to
Speaker 1: watch Gray Gardens. So in the Gilmore Girls, they're watching
Speaker 1: the documentary one. I watched the Drew Barrymore one. I
Speaker 1: need you guys to watch either and tell me if
Speaker 1: it just freaks you out, all right, so we're gonna
Speaker 1: we'll check it out. Let's uh, let's get this horse
Speaker 1: out of the barn. Also, the monkey lamp had a
Speaker 1: purple shade, which was the first time I noticed the
Speaker 1: purple shade, but could have been there. Okay, So we uh,
Speaker 1: Basically we go from that scene into the kitchen at
Speaker 1: the Dragonfly and we see Suki preparing, and we we
Speaker 1: start to understand she's not going to be at the
Speaker 1: end for Thanksgiving. So this is sort of setting up
Speaker 1: that she has a really bad O c D where
Speaker 1: she was really just just piping hot. Whyn't she It's
Speaker 1: not comfortable seeing our beloved Suki that angry, right, No,
Speaker 1: it's not like, what is the deal? She was really staming.
Speaker 1: We know she's a control freak about her kitchen. Well,
Speaker 1: you gotta be right, I mean, that's all the greats
Speaker 1: are perfectionists, and you know, if you're around a perfectionist,
Speaker 1: your life is going to be hell And let's let's
Speaker 1: face it, if it's their baby, it's it's gonna be hell. Um.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's she was very, very nervous and it
Speaker 1: was not but she really you know, it really paid
Speaker 1: off on the drunk drunkie drunk scene, which total total
Speaker 1: epic genius acting. We will get to that I'm there,
Speaker 1: I got to I'm there, I'm right there. I'm waiting
Speaker 1: for you. I'm there. We're not to talk about it.
Speaker 1: Let's jump back to where she's being kind of. So
Speaker 1: we're in the kitchen at the dragon Flight and Emily
Speaker 1: bops up and Lorela doesn't really realize she's behind it,
Speaker 1: and that's how we set up that they will be
Speaker 1: having Thanksgiving at the Gilmore's also, so we start to
Speaker 1: get the gist. Wasn't that going to be for Thanksgivings?
Speaker 1: And that Richard and Emily are going to be gone
Speaker 1: through all of December, So we also learned that little tidbit.
Speaker 1: I love that. I love that scene when Emily comes
Speaker 1: up and Laurela I didn't realize she was actually there.
Speaker 1: She goes, what are we in high school? Yeah? What? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I look behind you? Is Joseph Stalin h question question
Speaker 1: about the end? Just because I'm blanking? Is it already
Speaker 1: the Dragonfly I've been calling it the dragon Flights? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I just like to be googling. I'm like,
Speaker 1: thank you for the correction. I'm like, you miss episodes,
Speaker 1: you know, you totally have it right if it independ
Speaker 1: this's in. I'm so sorry everybody wanted to scream at
Speaker 1: their podcast. These fans know the second time I've done
Speaker 1: that in this pod, Like not this episode, but like
Speaker 1: in the run of our podcast, I have it, like
Speaker 1: I apologize Independence in. And I also thought they sort
Speaker 1: of I did have one criticism. There's a shot of
Speaker 1: the Independence in that establishes that that we're going inside.
Speaker 1: This shot looks like a frozen picture. It doesn't have
Speaker 1: any movement, Like did they just find a picture still shot? Like,
Speaker 1: so y'all need to rewatch that and tell me if
Speaker 1: it looked fake or like a frozen image to you guys. Okay,
Speaker 1: after after we delve into the Gray Gardens thing and
Speaker 1: watch that obsessively, then we'll go back that. Okay. And also,
Speaker 1: this is gonna age me, but like, sort of it
Speaker 1: reminds me of New Heart. Do you remember Scott like
Speaker 1: the house for over forties in the group. Maybe maybe
Speaker 1: that was intentional. Who knows, Kenny Ortega, he is a genius.
Speaker 1: Come on. Anyway, So we go to biology class now
Speaker 1: and we've got all the kids in biology class and
Speaker 1: tell me what you think. And that's how we learned
Speaker 1: Luise's dad's in jail. Um, what the heck was that there? Um,
Speaker 1: that's a science class right there explaining what happened. This
Speaker 1: episode feels very pop culture episode E to me, there's
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that. There was like doing pop culture.
Speaker 1: We'll get to it. There was so much. I don't
Speaker 1: think we could even include everything. We'll do it, we'll
Speaker 1: cram it in, we'll figure it out. So, you guys,
Speaker 1: this is where Paris is having her sort of like
Speaker 1: melt down because she can't get a position volunteering on
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and she's like losing her bleep over it. The
Speaker 1: kitchens won't even hire Paris, just like nope, sorry. You know.
Speaker 1: This is a very realistic depiction of a person who
Speaker 1: is filled with anxiety about meeting the requirements, just the
Speaker 1: basic requirements for getting into Harvard because it's very, very
Speaker 1: very difficult, and everybody is Valta Victorian or salutorian. They're
Speaker 1: the top, top of the food chain. Everybody's an academic
Speaker 1: superstar that goes there. They need to know that you're
Speaker 1: going to fit in, and and the more I see
Speaker 1: of Paris, the more I think that she's very capable
Speaker 1: of of I mean, she's almost a prototypical Harvard accept
Speaker 1: t because she's a leader. The only thing and the
Speaker 1: only thing that I would you know, there's a long
Speaker 1: list of criteria that they look for at Harvard and
Speaker 1: and one of them is that you can take on mentors.
Speaker 1: Not to get too far off the track here, but
Speaker 1: you know, it was interesting because we're looking into colleges.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm looking ten years ahead in colleges for
Speaker 1: my son because he's doing so well in school. So
Speaker 1: we're having to really sort of readjust our whole you know,
Speaker 1: life planned, where we want to live and what we
Speaker 1: will expose him to because he's showing so many Do
Speaker 1: you have to think about sending him to like private Yes? Yes,
Speaker 1: And that was the discussion we had last night. Because
Speaker 1: of the size of the endowments and the quality of
Speaker 1: the teaching and the money goes right to the students.
Speaker 1: Feel if he wanted to go to boarding school, I
Speaker 1: don't know that that's going to happen. I think you
Speaker 1: can go to day school, you don't have to board, right,
Speaker 1: So we would have to move to that area. Well, sure,
Speaker 1: so we could come home at night, right, so he
Speaker 1: we would see him at night. Yeah. Yeah, you save
Speaker 1: money and you don't have to worry, and you know,
Speaker 1: you know and so and way. Um. I do like
Speaker 1: the boarding school aspect of it because it really prepares
Speaker 1: those kids to go off to college. And if they're
Speaker 1: going to Harvard, that's a super competitive environment and they're
Speaker 1: not going to be ready for it. If their mom
Speaker 1: is boys and girls, Chilton could have easily been a
Speaker 1: boarding school also, it has that same sort of does
Speaker 1: so I think, you know anyway, that's just a sort
Speaker 1: of a what Amy would refer to as a sidebar,
Speaker 1: which is legal legal, We love us. Sidebar is like
Speaker 1: Jamie Jamie Jane does just call it Jamie Amy is
Speaker 1: the judge and she calls the lawyers up for a sidebar. Right.
Speaker 1: Sidebars gives us, gives us life on that whole thing.
Speaker 1: I did have one question, and you all give me
Speaker 1: your opinions. And maybe it's just because children is so small,
Speaker 1: but is it not a little bit unrealistic that the
Speaker 1: four girls Paris, Rory, Louise, and Madeline always have their
Speaker 1: glasses together. Yeah, I always like, wouldn't they being different?
Speaker 1: But I feel like if it's such a small school,
Speaker 1: then maybe like everyone in the grade just has like
Speaker 1: all the same classes. Yeah, but there's more than thirty
Speaker 1: kids in their grades. I don't know. It's just a
Speaker 1: little small flaw. So I've got two flaws in this episode.
Speaker 1: And Algie, here's the first time I noticed that this
Speaker 1: episode was edited differently and directed differently. It was the
Speaker 1: it was the snappy back and forth, the little uh punchlines,
Speaker 1: the little jokes, the little comments coming out of Louise
Speaker 1: and Madeline, the little stuff, and it was just it was,
Speaker 1: you know, my the clever meter was going up to tent.
Speaker 1: It was really fast and funny and witty and clever
Speaker 1: and sharp, didn't you say Dan Palladino wrote this one.
Speaker 1: He writes like that, So imagine we've got that writing,
Speaker 1: Ortega's directing, which is so like a film, right. Yes.
Speaker 1: And it was just breathtaking how weickly these scenes happened,
Speaker 1: and how quickly these lines were delivered, and the editing
Speaker 1: really came into play, especially in the living room scene
Speaker 1: with Richard and the French couple and a and at
Speaker 1: the dinner table. So all of these jokes really, you know,
Speaker 1: all these great lines popped even more for me because
Speaker 1: the editing I just was just for me. It was
Speaker 1: the best edited episode and you know, one of the
Speaker 1: best written. That's why because they were cut cut, cut,
Speaker 1: back and forth boom. They didn't let the camera linger
Speaker 1: on anybody, and it was all this back and forth.
Speaker 1: I never had a moment of like always all two
Speaker 1: more thanksgivings like sometimes jam packed. The ending scene I
Speaker 1: was just a lot, a lot because they because they
Speaker 1: didn't linger in any one location. They just it move, move, move, move,
Speaker 1: and they left before you wanted him to leave. They
Speaker 1: left at the height of the humor, and then they
Speaker 1: went to another place right and then they were out
Speaker 1: and out and out. It was great. What year is
Speaker 1: it in real life? Again? Is it two thousand three
Speaker 1: to two thousand? Kenny Ortega goes on to do high
Speaker 1: school musical in two thousand six. I have to imagine,
Speaker 1: and hopefully we're going to have him on. So Scott,
Speaker 1: you've got to ask him this, if this really helped
Speaker 1: prepare him to make high school musical. I have to
Speaker 1: imagine he was. He was. He was well prepared for
Speaker 1: high school musical way before. So he was just already
Speaker 1: like a genius director. But you guys had him he
Speaker 1: was he was Kenny Ortega back then. Did he bring
Speaker 1: such a light about him like I had interviewed him before,
Speaker 1: and these episodes have that. I have that same like
Speaker 1: high school musical energy. Both the dance episode and this
Speaker 1: there's a there's a real seamless, smooth kind of pop
Speaker 1: and energy to the Kenny Ortega stuff. It really, it
Speaker 1: really does take on his personality because he's kind of
Speaker 1: light and bright and quick and funny and and full
Speaker 1: of law there and and competence. You know. The thing
Speaker 1: you get it from Kennedy is he really knows his stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I totally agree, there's some there's sort of an energy.
Speaker 1: But Okay, so we're going on and we are now
Speaker 1: at because I'll tell you the rest of those slubs,
Speaker 1: I don't know where they're going. I'm them all look
Speaker 1: bad all stunt. Wait. I do think we realize it's
Speaker 1: it's the Autumn Festival. We see some signs by the
Speaker 1: Autumn Festival, and I thought there was a shot of
Speaker 1: a gallery store. This is sort of how we realized
Speaker 1: Kirk's getting the cat. He's at the Chat club and
Speaker 1: they show like an art gallery or a gallery that
Speaker 1: I don't know that we've seen before. Tara, do you
Speaker 1: did that look familiar? You have to go back and no,
Speaker 1: I don't we see Okay, so this is where we
Speaker 1: learned Kirk got the cat named Kirk. His reasoning was
Speaker 1: not bad, but I had to give it to Kurt
Speaker 1: for naming his cut Kurt Kurt. But how about his
Speaker 1: line at the very top of that scene, No, there're
Speaker 1: still items left in the store. Wasted everything in the store. No, no, Rory,
Speaker 1: there's still items left in the store. It's what my
Speaker 1: mom calls cat Kirk, human Kerk. And I like how
Speaker 1: Lord Lion Rory like helped him realize, like, oh, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be really confusing calling, like when his mom calls
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh yeah, thanks, Oh my god. It's
Speaker 1: totally reminds me of like a Saturday Night Live sketch.
Speaker 1: Is this guy a character on SNL? Yeah? No, it's
Speaker 1: just pure brilliant. I also love how Kirk always has
Speaker 1: this like underlying like story, his own storyline. Like I
Speaker 1: feel like he's the only other character besides like the
Speaker 1: main characters that has this whole story and you're like
Speaker 1: constantly wanting to know what's going on with him. He
Speaker 1: also like can have a scene by himself. Yeah you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like in that scene, like lord,
Speaker 1: Lyn and Rory were there, but it was all about Kirk.
Speaker 1: You know, Like it's at one point, does he get
Speaker 1: a fifty one because he's insane? I mean getting a break?
Speaker 1: Is he not insane? I think maybe the morning after
Speaker 1: sleeping the gazebo at night. He's truly like he's out there, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, let's just look at it from you know,
Speaker 1: a real human perspective. I mean, does where does he
Speaker 1: fit in it? The only place you can get away
Speaker 1: with this stuff, this behavior is in that town. Who
Speaker 1: just thinks it's because it's so full of love and
Speaker 1: acceptance that he's not love. This guy's nuts, right, We
Speaker 1: love him so much. He's so harmless because he's not dangerous.
Speaker 1: He's not a dangerous guy only to himself with the cat,
Speaker 1: not really, I mean, right, but he's just a very gentle,
Speaker 1: lovely soul who's incredibly insane. I mean, he's just so
Speaker 1: whacked out. I love him. It's it's so great, it's
Speaker 1: so great. So we go to the diner and actually
Speaker 1: So this is where they talk about Thanksgiving, and at
Speaker 1: first she tells Luke she's not gonna be able to
Speaker 1: and she sees how disappointed and she changes it. But
Speaker 1: did she order a French dip and cherry pie? Who
Speaker 1: made that? My notes? A French dip cherry pie? And
Speaker 1: I'm like, she think that seems like something Lorela would order.
Speaker 1: But I guess that's what she orders on Wednesday. What's
Speaker 1: wrong with why wouldn't she She's a she's as you know,
Speaker 1: she's a she's a garbage truck. She'll eat anything. I
Speaker 1: was more focused on the fact that Luke was so
Speaker 1: sick you don't want to show it, though he didn't,
Speaker 1: but you can tell that's the beauty of luralized. She
Speaker 1: looks like and first of all, I must say, the
Speaker 1: blue eyes really came through, like piercing through me the
Speaker 1: entire episode. I agree. And her hair was like fair
Speaker 1: faucet like throughout the whole episode. And I don't know
Speaker 1: how right she looks she she did. She looked like
Speaker 1: a Charlie's Angel. She looked like Jacqueline Smith. I agree,
Speaker 1: like her sister. Yeah, it was like whoa um and
Speaker 1: the blue eyes just like the raging blue eyes, the piercing,
Speaker 1: the piercing of the blue eyes. Um, I don't know
Speaker 1: how I could have mistook those for green. Maybe I
Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe when I look in her eyes, I
Speaker 1: just see money. Well, in person, they could be more
Speaker 1: like blue green, but I don't know. Maybe the way
Speaker 1: the light was hitting, you know, those days that I
Speaker 1: was looking into her eyes deeply and then I learned
Speaker 1: not to do it because it was too But it
Speaker 1: depends what they're wearing. They might, you know, like sometimes
Speaker 1: throwing a blue shirt, their eyes are blue. Good, God,
Speaker 1: what do you have? I got you, No, Daniel, I
Speaker 1: can see yours brown brown, blue, same mass And Okay,
Speaker 1: So we come to we now know they're going to
Speaker 1: four dinners, and they either in this scene or the
Speaker 1: scene shortly after, they acknowledge like they've been training for this,
Speaker 1: they can do this. They won't eat rolls. There's some
Speaker 1: mention of Tom's and those being amateur pills, and then
Speaker 1: they're they're in docs market. So Lura Ly goes in.
Speaker 1: I think we fast forwarded to I think it is
Speaker 1: now Thanksgiving, and this is where Laura Lee goes in
Speaker 1: because obviously Rory doesn't want to go in because of Dean,
Speaker 1: and then here comes Jess and there's the kiss. I
Speaker 1: will say the timeline of this part really threw me off.
Speaker 1: Went quickly offer was Thanksgiving. Yeah, it was like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's now Thanksgiving and they're buying flowers like I thought
Speaker 1: they were buying flowers the day before. There was I
Speaker 1: agree that there was. There wasn't a super clear transition.
Speaker 1: You kind of have to go, oh, okay, I got it,
Speaker 1: thank you, because it dressed up a little bit. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So what do you all think of Jess and Rory? Well,
Speaker 1: I like to what happened before before that, you mean
Speaker 1: the little lane kiss that she got accused of, like
Speaker 1: that that comes later, the lane kiss in front of
Speaker 1: things Want to GOA has the scene with Dean. That's
Speaker 1: right exactly, Scott, Dean and Laura I have their very
Speaker 1: sweet moment while simultaneously, Rory and Jess are kind of
Speaker 1: making out and she doesn't. They talk about p d
Speaker 1: A and that we shouldn't flaunt it to the town.
Speaker 1: Did not kiss in front of Dean specifically, And this
Speaker 1: is a very nice scene that this really showed the character,
Speaker 1: you know, the kind of the kind of character that
Speaker 1: that Laurel. That Laurela is that she's going to go
Speaker 1: in and she's gonna say, hey, you know, I still
Speaker 1: adore you. We can still talk and be friends. I
Speaker 1: can still be there for you as a friend in
Speaker 1: this town. It's a small town, you know. On that
Speaker 1: line where she said, like, even though you guys broke up,
Speaker 1: we didn't like, I act love that each other. And
Speaker 1: the relief on his face, I mean, it's a very
Speaker 1: touching scene. And I think that says everything about why
Speaker 1: the show is so appealing to so many people is
Speaker 1: because that doesn't happen, you know that. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: actually it does. It does, and it's nice to see it.
Speaker 1: She calls the town their own teeny tiny Hamlet. Didn't
Speaker 1: she say that? I didn't get I'm red Hamlets, don't
Speaker 1: She shouldn't mean Hamlet in the sense of the play.
Speaker 1: Hamlet is another name for a town, a small English town,
Speaker 1: a tiny hamlet. No, no, no, no no. But I
Speaker 1: didn't know that either. You know, it had nothing to
Speaker 1: do with uh, the Shakespeare, which I immediately thought, oh,
Speaker 1: there must be some reference. I mean, because if there
Speaker 1: ever is a reverence to Hamlet, then you will not
Speaker 1: shut me up for the whole two hours. We know,
Speaker 1: you know your Shakespeare. They also got which is so
Speaker 1: amazing because I have this chocolate turkey. Okay, so they
Speaker 1: got chocolate turkeys and first she got cranberry sauce, which
Speaker 1: I also brought this can cranberry sauce, which can cranberry
Speaker 1: sauce is not really my way to go. But this
Speaker 1: is so what month is it now? It's like June, right,
Speaker 1: So I have a chocolate turkey all the way back
Speaker 1: from November. So I googled and you can like eat
Speaker 1: chocolate for up to a year. But this is a
Speaker 1: question we have for you, Scott, and then we're gonna
Speaker 1: ask a bunch of other people. How do you eat
Speaker 1: a chocolate turkey with your face, with your mouth? Would
Speaker 1: you like go for the head first? I think you
Speaker 1: would know. I think take one of those mallets and like,
Speaker 1: what do you do? I think you just bite off
Speaker 1: the head. That's how you That's how you rock at
Speaker 1: chocolate turkey. When they got to Mrs Kim's, wasn't the
Speaker 1: head missing? Yeah, that's how laural i ate and she
Speaker 1: gave her the wrong one that was forty. This reminds
Speaker 1: me very much of beheading the butter swans. Do you
Speaker 1: guys remember that? Oh my god, yes, what was that? Like? Rude? Rude?
Speaker 1: This one has no head. Oh sorry, that's that's mine. Here,
Speaker 1: you got that one for you? Oh my god. So
Speaker 1: we want to know from everybody, how do you eat
Speaker 1: a chocolate turkey? I would not bite it because to
Speaker 1: me that would be like leave my slabber. So I
Speaker 1: think I would like hit it with something. What are
Speaker 1: you sharing? Someone? Hit it? What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Hit it with like a like a little malady things.
Speaker 1: We could break it so I could have little pieces
Speaker 1: of the chocolate turkey if I don't eat my slabber behind,
Speaker 1: even if I'm not sharing it, the head off? What's wrong?
Speaker 1: She's going to bite head off? You're a tail first, Amy.
Speaker 1: If anybody on this panels a head bitter, it's you
Speaker 1: give me a break. I would not bite into this,
Speaker 1: So everyone please give us feedback. I would right for
Speaker 1: the head full slabber. Just do it, just just end it, alright.

Speaker 1: Hysterical laurelized Entrance saying hello Mrs Yim, Mr John, you
Speaker 1: know she knew all the names. She knew everyone, but
Speaker 1: she didn't engage them, and she did her like not her.
Speaker 1: It wasn't condescending. It was just like we're in a rush,
Speaker 1: we're busy. This is the first one or second one

Speaker 1: she said, hid everyone that way she can just head
Speaker 1: out as But she just she knew everybody, which was

Speaker 1: have the best line in the whole thing. And nobody's
Speaker 1: gonna usurp me. Nobody's gonna steal that best line for
Speaker 1: me because it's going to be my best line. You

Speaker 1: and steal and hang on, hang on, hang on, I'm
Speaker 1: going to go first on best lines. I'm just establishing
Speaker 1: that now. So that I can own this line. That's fair.
Speaker 1: Don't steal. Don't steal my line, you break. So Lane's
Speaker 1: outfit was amazing, adorable. She just had a really cute
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Look now, am I going out of order? Or
Speaker 1: does the kiss happen now? No? No, no, no at
Speaker 1: the end of the episode, thank you. Well alright, so
Speaker 1: we got one down then, so they have to gag
Speaker 1: down the to fur key. They wish they didn't that.
Speaker 1: She thought she was gonna be able to hide it
Speaker 1: and ms Kim had eyeballs on her and off we go,
Speaker 1: got eyes on her with the napkins. She wasn't able
Speaker 1: to dump it. She had to eat it all. So
Speaker 1: we go to Suki's and here comes a deep fried turkey.
Speaker 1: And my first question to you all is who were
Speaker 1: all those guys? Did you? Okay, So that's my question.
Speaker 1: Did you ever envision like Jackson to have that group
Speaker 1: of friends. He's a vegetable guy. But was it family?
Speaker 1: Was it friend? Like? Who was it? It was? It
Speaker 1: was like a biker gang, it was. It was so
Speaker 1: out of left field for me, really was I did
Speaker 1: not know how Jackson hung out with friends like that
Speaker 1: looked familiar, like we might have to zoom in on.
Speaker 1: There's like a group shot. One dude looked familiar, the
Speaker 1: rest of them like, I don't know who any of
Speaker 1: these people are, but it was it was terribly funny.
Speaker 1: I just assumed it was his family that we've never met.
Speaker 1: That was just my guests. But it was so random.
Speaker 1: I can't maybe it was a brother and his friends
Speaker 1: or I don't know, yeah, that, but it was It
Speaker 1: was not beyond the realm right of possibility because there's
Speaker 1: more people in the town and they've obviously got friends.
Speaker 1: It's hic when he comes out with a turkey on
Speaker 1: the chain, right, she was at the table with the
Speaker 1: platform get just kind of like, I think this is happening,
Speaker 1: just starting to drink. But do you fried turkey is
Speaker 1: so good? Yes, I've I don't think I fried turkey before.
Speaker 1: Have you made one? I mean I haven't, but I've
Speaker 1: had it. The Romo family makes. Yeah. My my uncle
Speaker 1: always makes the turkey, and he does too. He does
Speaker 1: a smoked one, fried one and a fried one smoked.
Speaker 1: I don't think, really good, delicious. It's great. Next time
Speaker 1: we all get together, I'll bring some fried turkey es.
Speaker 1: I mean the first time we all get anything fried
Speaker 1: is good? Guys, come on roast in turkey like in
Speaker 1: the oven. That's lame tradition. Is that lame? Is it? Danielle? Oh?
Speaker 1: Just very ordinary? Do you guys think of the fact
Speaker 1: that the next day with the leftovers, I dip it
Speaker 1: in mayonnaise? Does that make Why do you even stop it?
Speaker 1: Stop it? Like? Great? Do you dip your French fries
Speaker 1: in maynaise? Stopful? Do you like not? Like pretty much? Chicken? Sad? Gravy? Gravy?
Speaker 1: When you think of mayo, just like on the side
Speaker 1: of your plate, like to dip it's just stop it mayonnaise. No,
Speaker 1: you guys don't ever have artichokes? What's artichokes? You dip
Speaker 1: the artichoke leaves in mannase? Oh God, you're killing me.
Speaker 1: You're killing me. You don't did broccoli and manna anything
Speaker 1: you want to use mayonnaise for? I use it if
Speaker 1: I make tuna fish. That's that's that's just like? No,
Speaker 1: when'd you do like ranch? Thank you? Somebody just put
Speaker 1: in our chat dipped Thank you? Easton broccoli. We are
Speaker 1: going to have two poles this week, please Instagram now,
Speaker 1: because not only are we going to discuss how do
Speaker 1: you eat a chocolate turkey. We're also going to decide
Speaker 1: or not broccoli. I kind of want to try it.
Speaker 1: Who just type deep water is a work of art?
Speaker 1: Is that Easton? That's what we call a call back. Okay,
Speaker 1: so now we're heading to change of subject somehow. Just
Speaker 1: real quick about Suki. Did the location of her home
Speaker 1: throw anyone else off? Like if you if you at
Speaker 1: the end when they pan over, like her home just
Speaker 1: seems like it's in the middle of the town. I
Speaker 1: thought it was always kind of close to town. Remember, Scott,
Speaker 1: you've kind of told us that, like things are closer
Speaker 1: to town than we think. I thought, yeah, they are.
Speaker 1: I thought it was next to Mrs Kim's. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it's like Mrs Kim Suki and then Laurel House.
Speaker 1: I didn't watch it back, but basically when they were
Speaker 1: walking at the end of the night, when they said
Speaker 1: hi to Suki at the very end, that threw me
Speaker 1: off because I think that the close the church was
Speaker 1: like right there, and I was like, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: where are we? But well, okay, so so the church
Speaker 1: is on the opposite side of the high school. Okay.
Speaker 1: And then if you go if you pan right of
Speaker 1: the church as you're facing the church, then there's the
Speaker 1: gas station. There's there's Rosie's gas station, rosads gas station.
Speaker 1: What's her name in the show Gypsy's gas Station? And
Speaker 1: then the first house is Kim's Antiques, and then I
Speaker 1: guess it's Sukis and then it's Laurel Less. Okay, I
Speaker 1: always knew Mrs Kim's was first. I just didn't know that.
Speaker 1: And then across the street from uh, laureall Ez is
Speaker 1: the movie theater where they go and watch movies. I
Speaker 1: need to know this. What did you guys ever in
Speaker 1: a scene accidentally call each other like your real life name,
Speaker 1: Like you know how you just said Rose but you
Speaker 1: meant Gypsy like and sometimes I have to do that
Speaker 1: where I go like, say Alexis. When you're talking about Alexis,
Speaker 1: say Rory, Like I always want to just call her Rory.
Speaker 1: Like nobody ever was doing a scene and they're like, Stott,
Speaker 1: get back here, and I mean, no, no, that that
Speaker 1: never happened to me when I was shooting. Did anyone
Speaker 1: ever call you the wrong name? Or like? That would
Speaker 1: have been so like I would have not thought, how
Speaker 1: do you screw up? Luke. I don't know. I could
Speaker 1: easily have seen myself saying being in a scene with
Speaker 1: Lauren and trying to say Laura, la and then listen
Speaker 1: when you when you, how can I compete? I want
Speaker 1: to to help the listening audience imagine what it's like too,
Speaker 1: to go into the belly of the beast, you know,
Speaker 1: to go into a scene, to go through the rehearsal process,
Speaker 1: and then you know, here we go. We're gonna, we're
Speaker 1: gonna do a take. We're gonna really, we're gonna put
Speaker 1: one on film, right, And it's exactly like have you
Speaker 1: ever watched the professional bull riding? No, but oh no,
Speaker 1: but you've seen it on TV. You've seen those cowboys
Speaker 1: get in there and they there's a bunch of guys
Speaker 1: holding the bowl and the guy's holding the gate and
Speaker 1: you get on the strap in your your one hand,
Speaker 1: and you're like, there's all this tension and all this nerve.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, it's really gonna happen. They
Speaker 1: open the gate and it flies out. That's what it's like.
Speaker 1: So you're so the So the point I'm making is
Speaker 1: you're super concentrated, your your focus and your concentration is
Speaker 1: so intense and so sharp that you that you're so
Speaker 1: in that moment because it is life or death. It's
Speaker 1: just like a bull rider and you don't want to
Speaker 1: get kicked off that bowl, so you down that bull
Speaker 1: as long as you can. And there's bucking and bronckin
Speaker 1: going on those things. There's a lot of bucking and bronken.
Speaker 1: You know, they're trying to bump you off that horse,
Speaker 1: I would imagine, especially like all those different things coming
Speaker 1: at a lot of stuff coming at you. So you
Speaker 1: gotta staying and got to stay on. But it's exciting.
Speaker 1: It's exciting to like, you know, when you knock on
Speaker 1: your trailer door and they go okay, they're ready for you,
Speaker 1: cameras up and you're like, oh, then the music starts
Speaker 1: playing in your head. Okay, here we go. We're gonna
Speaker 1: go kill this scene. We're gonna anail this scene. Then
Speaker 1: you get on set and you're like, stalking around, does
Speaker 1: it give you like adrenaline? Oh God, that's why you're
Speaker 1: so tired and wiped out at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: because it's that that that adrenaline just pumping through you
Speaker 1: while you know when they knock on the door. They're ready,
Speaker 1: cameras ready, ready for you, Scott and then Tara Danielle.
Speaker 1: Have you guys ever been It's really cool, it's really cool,
Speaker 1: but like, were you an actor, like an extra? Neither
Speaker 1: daniel was an extra x to once. I think I've
Speaker 1: actually talked about on this on this show before. Um
Speaker 1: it was for some weird movie that my friend was
Speaker 1: a p a on and it was like this party
Speaker 1: scene where they just needed to people to like play
Speaker 1: beer pong and like chug a beer in the background
Speaker 1: and so perfect college and our friend was like, everyone
Speaker 1: shot you get free booth, Like, let's go take it back.
Speaker 1: I've done a music video this band R five, who
Speaker 1: was signed to Disney at the time, and they were
Speaker 1: like yeah, like Ross Lintil, like we need party people
Speaker 1: in the back, and so I was the same thing,
Speaker 1: that's why. But never I've been on the set, but never,
Speaker 1: like I mean, yeah, yeah, So we don't really know
Speaker 1: what it's like. Knock knock, We've not addressing. It's really exciting,
Speaker 1: no dressing room. It's probably the same feeling that musicians
Speaker 1: get when they walk backstage and the crowd is roaring
Speaker 1: and the lights go out and it's like I was,
Speaker 1: their hearts are beaten and it's like they've done it
Speaker 1: a million times before, but it's still exciting as hell, right,
Speaker 1: and they get out there and they just like because
Speaker 1: you want to do great, you know, you want to
Speaker 1: do great. And it's like it's like if you're in
Speaker 1: a scene with Lauren, or you're in a scene with
Speaker 1: a bunch of you know, actors on the show, um Man,
Speaker 1: I tell you, it's like it's like your athletes out
Speaker 1: there and you're sort of you're not competing against people,
Speaker 1: but you want to do well for the team. You know,
Speaker 1: you want to you want to make everybody great. You
Speaker 1: want to be great. You won't want to miss your ques.
Speaker 1: You want to execute and do well. And it's like
Speaker 1: that's how everybody is on that set. That's how they
Speaker 1: were on that set because the work was so crucial,
Speaker 1: it was so important. It was such an actor centric
Speaker 1: um show. You know, the performances needed to be delivered
Speaker 1: and they had to be delivered with verve. You know,
Speaker 1: it had to be really, really concentrated. So there wasn't
Speaker 1: a chance anybody called anybody by their real name. Oh no,
Speaker 1: that would have been evidence that somebody who's just not
Speaker 1: like in the moment of not concentrating. It's like, you know,
Speaker 1: if somebody called me by my real name, I would
Speaker 1: have slapped him and said, you know, serving focusing, getting focused,
Speaker 1: But what are you doing speaking of calling you by
Speaker 1: the right name? Luke? Were now Luke's for Thanksgiving? So
Speaker 1: this is where you and Laura Lee have your stop
Speaker 1: bringing the flowers blah blah blah. And they all go
Speaker 1: back and forth, and Kirk's there, but best loves that banswer.
Speaker 1: He was waiting for it. What a crank trace though
Speaker 1: crank he purposely doesn't have a vase. Yeah, because he
Speaker 1: wants that conversation everything. That's the only way to her
Speaker 1: heart is to give her, give her time, right demo.
Speaker 1: They waited for Jess and Luke waited for Rory and Laurel,
Speaker 1: and then they're like, we wouldn't really wait for you,
Speaker 1: like I just worked up this way, you know. And
Speaker 1: then that's where everyone's like a lame oh kiss, half
Speaker 1: asked kiss. They referred to it as a couple of
Speaker 1: chickens kissing each other. I just died, Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: can we uh, can we just honor the greatness that
Speaker 1: is Sally Strother, that wasn't a kiss. You kind of
Speaker 1: put a little something into its so brief, and it
Speaker 1: totally stands out. It was a lame kiss. It was
Speaker 1: so funny, Sally the other one. I think she said
Speaker 1: something about very uncooled cat. Yeah right, because Kurt it
Speaker 1: was like sixty in My body is scratched. Also, I'm
Speaker 1: so confused why when Luke and Jess got up that
Speaker 1: loyalize picking food off of Luke's plate as if they
Speaker 1: don't have fun dinner? Hang on? That is okay, That's
Speaker 1: one thing that I thought of last night after I
Speaker 1: watched How Why Lauren is Lauren? That's why she's so good?
Speaker 1: Do you know why? Do you know how many actresses
Speaker 1: would have done that? Not many? You know, there would
Speaker 1: have been some, but only the top people do things
Speaker 1: like that. And let me let me explain why, because
Speaker 1: it was in the dialogue right, she wanted more marshmallows,
Speaker 1: and so he went and got more marshmallows. So she
Speaker 1: took the marshmallows off his plate. So that gives her
Speaker 1: something to do, that says something that is so she's
Speaker 1: a she doesn't have to eat because she doesn't want
Speaker 1: to eat in a scene and deliver all that dialogue.
Speaker 1: She doesn't want to choose, she doesn't want to swallow,
Speaker 1: she doesn't want to try to match it. But she
Speaker 1: wants to be active with her fork. So a great
Speaker 1: a great, It is a great actor. Look, acting is
Speaker 1: all about making the choice, the geniuses in the choice.
Speaker 1: And that was evidence that that Lauren like knows her
Speaker 1: stuff like few people know their stuff. It's like, how
Speaker 1: do I make this active? How do I connect with
Speaker 1: Luke in this way to make it familiar and like
Speaker 1: we're family because she's just taking the marshmalls off his plate? Right,
Speaker 1: So it made it sort of cozy and homie and
Speaker 1: it felt family ish, right, And and that's the kind
Speaker 1: of relationship because it's not gonna bother him. They share everything.
Speaker 1: It's like that's kind of love. It's like she's expressing
Speaker 1: her love for him by just take feeling like she
Speaker 1: can take the marshmalls. And not once did she take
Speaker 1: a bite of those marshmalls. She almost brought she brought
Speaker 1: the fork a little bit like up and that's when Sally.
Speaker 1: This queue was for sal and she turned around like
Speaker 1: the kiss you know, you put a little more into it,
Speaker 1: and she was holding the fork up. She never took
Speaker 1: a bite, and I just thought, that is genius. That's
Speaker 1: how you act in a scene and connect with the
Speaker 1: other actor who's not even there saying so much with
Speaker 1: your actions. Um, And I mean, I just you gotta
Speaker 1: hand it to her. You gotta take that off to her,
Speaker 1: because there there aren't a lot of actors that are
Speaker 1: gonna do that or even going to know to do that.
Speaker 1: And that is that is her actor brain looking at
Speaker 1: the scene, breaking the scene down, saying I'm going to
Speaker 1: do this because X, Y and Z, and there's a
Speaker 1: million different positives that flow from that, right, So there
Speaker 1: you go, best best example of great acting. Um, I
Speaker 1: think that I've seen her do in a couple of
Speaker 1: episodes of all the great stuff that she does. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I was not because it's real life. She was going
Speaker 1: to say, Yeah, it's real life, that little stuff. I
Speaker 1: just kept thinking, how are they going to eat? All?
Speaker 1: This was like going through my head. But I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, I love acting, and those little details are everything.
Speaker 1: It's all in the details. And she she does, she
Speaker 1: does the details. She does makes the view are more comfortable.
Speaker 1: It does Yeah, it really, it makes it just so real.
Speaker 1: So okay, we're heading to our fourth. Such a small
Speaker 1: thing that you barely noticed, and it means so much,
Speaker 1: you know, it says so many things. So very impressed,
Speaker 1: very impressed. So we are now at the Gilmore's. My
Speaker 1: two notes as before you guys discuss is one that
Speaker 1: is John Anniston Jennifer Aniston, also known too many as
Speaker 1: Victor Kiriakis on Days of our lives literally for like forever.
Speaker 1: And I thought it was so hilarious the piano player,
Speaker 1: and she saw that's brad. I found that. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, I don't think. I don't think Yourstrom has
Speaker 1: piano players? Do they get rid of them? They do
Speaker 1: not exist? And yeah they don't. Is that because of COVID.
Speaker 1: Before COVID, I didn't see any they use that definitely
Speaker 1: with like a thing walked into a Norch, dumb and
Speaker 1: there was a piano player. So okay, here's like a story.
Speaker 1: And if I'm supposed to tell I don't even know
Speaker 1: if this is like whatever, here's I'll to sell you
Speaker 1: the story. So my mom worked at is time at Nordstrom.
Speaker 1: She was like a personal shopper and she remembers on
Speaker 1: September eleven, two thousand one, it happening. She was in
Speaker 1: the store, and I think she managed the store sometimes,
Speaker 1: and she went to the store. They remember going to
Speaker 1: the store manager and saying, this is so major. We
Speaker 1: cannot have this guy playing piano right now. We need
Speaker 1: to close the store and everyone go home. And they did.
Speaker 1: And that's how I knew the piano players were still around,
Speaker 1: because she remembers being like, we cannot be walking around
Speaker 1: the store with this piano player playing this music like
Speaker 1: everything's fine. Yeah, wow, anyway, taking you back in time. Um.
Speaker 1: On that note, Natalie and Douglas, Claude and Monique are
Speaker 1: all at the Gilmore's and uh, they all start chatting
Speaker 1: and Laurel I only knows lady mamma lad huh, the
Speaker 1: French girl was Actually she thought it was funny though,
Speaker 1: so that was okay, but loyalized that Richard was mortified.
Speaker 1: This is one of my favorites. I oh no, this
Speaker 1: could be Scott's hopeably not something about the mother's wit.
Speaker 1: I wish you'd give it back. That was really that
Speaker 1: was the best scene in the in the living room,
Speaker 1: that was the best scene of the episode. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was just so great. It was so funny. And
Speaker 1: the cuts back and forth, real fast cuts back and
Speaker 1: forth everybody, and like you always say, it's so high
Speaker 1: falutint with the ceremonial carving and the like the juxtaposition
Speaker 1: between like Thanksgiving at Luke's and Thanksgiving at the Gilmore's.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, in the bell for dinner
Speaker 1: as she was like ning ning, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: all the food came rushing out, and then he only
Speaker 1: cut the ceremonial It's like a kick out a wedding,
Speaker 1: like literally like cut a little slice, but even pull
Speaker 1: it out like I'm done. The full family brawl company
Speaker 1: like oh my god. Yeah, and the poor ladies like sorry,
Speaker 1: I mean to bring this up. So awkward, just so awkward,
Speaker 1: and yet like don't act like no families have family
Speaker 1: brawls on Thanksgiving. I swear, like of families have to
Speaker 1: have some sort of family Oh yeah, yeah, I remember.
Speaker 1: I remember when I was a kid, my mother used
Speaker 1: to pound her fist on the on our my dad's
Speaker 1: parents dining room table and because they were arguing about politics,
Speaker 1: and we get up and leave and look out. I
Speaker 1: just remember them arguing over Nixon, and my mother was
Speaker 1: just pounding her fist on the tables. I don't remember
Speaker 1: what she were saying. But after that, children were leaving.
Speaker 1: I couldn't I couldn't go, But I did have a friend,
Speaker 1: My friend Bennett invited me to his Thanksgiving ones and
Speaker 1: he literally put in the text something like there will
Speaker 1: definitely be like a brawl over politics, like dressed casual like. Also,
Speaker 1: by the way, just fun fact, Norse from got rid
Speaker 1: of their piano players in was it like too expensive
Speaker 1: or just like nobody wouldn't read the full article while
Speaker 1: we were talking against just looked it up. It was
Speaker 1: really curious in there. Yes, So what did you think
Speaker 1: of the Yale bomb show? Yeah? I think Lorelai was
Speaker 1: in the wrong on this one. Yeah, I agree, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it made for a good scene. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: don't you know, this is what happens when things are unresolved, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, the nerve endings were still raw from Yale.
Speaker 1: Emily didn't really make any kind of um, you know,
Speaker 1: she didn't. She didn't really offer an all of branch.
Speaker 1: She didn't offer I mean, but Emily was so great
Speaker 1: at Yale anyway, and she was really being very rational
Speaker 1: about the whole thing, and they're just really looking out
Speaker 1: for Rory's bench the best interests. So yeah, I think
Speaker 1: I think I agree with you, Tara. I think it
Speaker 1: was a little over the top, but I understand her
Speaker 1: how raw her nerves web were at that time, because
Speaker 1: you know, it's no kid applies to one college, you know,
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know. But it's the fact
Speaker 1: that they helped they they hid it from Lorelai. I
Speaker 1: think that's what angered or even her own daughter hit
Speaker 1: it from her. So she felt like, you know, I
Speaker 1: would be a little sad if I was a little
Speaker 1: lie that I didn't even know my daughter applied to Yale.
Speaker 1: But also, like you can tell that Rory likes Yale.
Speaker 1: You can tell there's a little spark there. And I
Speaker 1: think I'm kind of upset at Lord Lie for not
Speaker 1: knowledging that and not like and not saying, you know what,
Speaker 1: maybe she does actually like Yale, Like maybe just have
Speaker 1: that conversation with or do you actually like Yale for
Speaker 1: you and aside from Grandma and Grandpa, Like for you,
Speaker 1: do you like Yale and it's so great? Then I'm
Speaker 1: going to be behind you because she's just kind of
Speaker 1: putting a big red X over it without even that's
Speaker 1: because that's where they wanted her to go. And yeah,
Speaker 1: but at one point, I don't want your pride aside.
Speaker 1: I agree, And that scene when Emily's like, do you
Speaker 1: really hate us that much? I'm like that was devastating.
Speaker 1: That was that was there was no comeback for that.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, sure. I also, did you tell your
Speaker 1: parents every school you applied to? I did? I guess
Speaker 1: they had to pay because let's go, yeah, because like
Speaker 1: even I went to a cal State school, but like
Speaker 1: everyone you applied to, you still have to pay for
Speaker 1: each one, because it was like the UC system and
Speaker 1: the state, like you have to pay for each school
Speaker 1: you're applying. There was one like from what I remember,
Speaker 1: like a general application fee, and then each school was
Speaker 1: an additional payment, so I wasn't paying for it. Like yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's sort of it sort of seemed like
Speaker 1: a big fight over something that really didn't need to be.
Speaker 1: But I think Scott's right, she's so it's such a
Speaker 1: hot button for her and she's so triggered by it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she came around towards the end, she's just feeling very
Speaker 1: I don't know all at once. She's feeling this sting
Speaker 1: of how her life turned out or how she was
Speaker 1: treated because her life didn't turn out the way Richard
Speaker 1: Emiley wanted it to turn out on so many different levels,
Speaker 1: and it's just really, you know, the Paladinos just really
Speaker 1: set up this world where any touch points we're going
Speaker 1: to trigger Laureline. I think that's brilliant and you can
Speaker 1: justify it. You can always justify, you know, And uh,
Speaker 1: I think that's you know, the utimate purpose of of
Speaker 1: having Richard and Emily so deeply involved and you know,
Speaker 1: just about every episode, whereas uh, you know, normally they
Speaker 1: would be treated as secondary characters, they're not secondary characters
Speaker 1: at all. So yeah, I mean, if if, if, if
Speaker 1: that's you know that it's just fraught with land mines.
Speaker 1: For for Laurela walking back into that house, she knows
Speaker 1: she's going to get triggered. I would say, after Laurel
Speaker 1: Rory Luke, it really is, you know, and whoever the
Speaker 1: boyfriend of the moment is, whether it's Dean Logan, just
Speaker 1: it really is Emily and rich Shirt. They are the
Speaker 1: most prominent in the in the series. Absolutely, I mean,
Speaker 1: you could even argue, and you know, I think the
Speaker 1: you know, think think what you will of the episodes,
Speaker 1: the Netflix episodes, you know those things that that really,
Speaker 1: you know, vaulted Emily over and above everybody else except
Speaker 1: for I mean, and put at her on the same
Speaker 1: level as a Laurel and Rory. Yeah, Danielle has no idea.
Speaker 1: I know you haven't seen the episodes. She doesn't. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen the movies, nothing, nothing, So okay, So now
Speaker 1: the kiss. I'm sorry I got all screwy on that before.
Speaker 1: So we've got Adam Brody, who is but I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: sorry just to say that dinner scene and that living
Speaker 1: room scene, beautiful editing job. Just it was like hitting
Speaker 1: the ball back and forth and you know when you're
Speaker 1: at the net and it's just like you're hitting back
Speaker 1: and forth with somebody at the net and it's like
Speaker 1: this real fast motion. That's what that was like. That
Speaker 1: was right, that camera boomtoon. It was great. It was
Speaker 1: so great to watch. Yeah, anyway, go ahead. Sorry, no,
Speaker 1: don't have him. So now we're with Adam Brody. I
Speaker 1: love him. I literally love him in this such a
Speaker 1: um it's it's like their first real date. Mrs Kim
Speaker 1: pays them twenty bucks. This is where the kiss this
Speaker 1: which I thought she played it cool too. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: my gosh, yes, everyone was cool. I love how he's like,
Speaker 1: I'll put this twenty dollars towards our first date. I
Speaker 1: was like, this cute, you got me, Daveve, you got me? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think consider this they're they're on a date.
Speaker 1: But it was adorable the whole thing, and and spawned
Speaker 1: my favorite line of the whole episode when she want
Speaker 1: to tell us now, I will I will tell you
Speaker 1: now because I don't trust that somebody's not gonna steal
Speaker 1: this when we get there, I'm gonna get host. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just spit it out right now. She runs.
Speaker 1: He's surprised. He says, man, you're a fast You're a
Speaker 1: quiet runner. He was. He was just like, wow, you're
Speaker 1: you're a quiet runner. It's brilliant. What a funny line.
Speaker 1: And I love then. So now we see Lord Hawaii
Speaker 1: and Rory walking and they're going back to Luke's. Oh gosh,
Speaker 1: so pit stop at sukis though, Yeah, right, okay, so
Speaker 1: that's right drunk, let's talk about that. She finally loosened
Speaker 1: up though, Hey, masterclass and great acting right there. That's
Speaker 1: how you play drunk because there's different levels of drunk, right,
Speaker 1: you know, there's the Foster Brooks drunk and right, yeah,
Speaker 1: a little you know, there's that, and then there's you know,
Speaker 1: there's mildly drunk. And then she really walked a very
Speaker 1: fine line. She walked the tight rope on that one.
Speaker 1: They were hysterical. They were the same exact position too,
Speaker 1: as like seven hours earlier, was this when they were
Speaker 1: defrying everything? Yeah? Everything? But weren't you with Melissa? Weren't
Speaker 1: you hanging on every single word? Oh? Yeah. See, that's
Speaker 1: the sign of a great actor actress is that you're
Speaker 1: just hanging on every single world what she's gonna do next.
Speaker 1: You're so focused on what they're going to say next,
Speaker 1: and you're delighted by everything they're doing well. And I
Speaker 1: love that we're coming back around and we're revisiting everybody
Speaker 1: again briefly that we've had Thanksgiving with so there's nothing
Speaker 1: else to do in that town. What do you think
Speaker 1: made Rory kiss Jess the way she did? Was it
Speaker 1: like the lame of I think it's his hair. I
Speaker 1: think it's his hair. I think I think that's what
Speaker 1: made her go wild. I think it was Babette, like
Speaker 1: the fact that Babette knew she was like, well, I
Speaker 1: guess it is what it is, like everyone knows what's happening,
Speaker 1: and I'm just going to kiss him. Yeah, and also
Speaker 1: like the the whole like, oh, I don't like pa,
Speaker 1: I don't like pd A, but like just like come on,
Speaker 1: like just give me a kiss. I don't know, Like
Speaker 1: I think I think she realized that she was being weird.
Speaker 1: Where did the kiss happen? By the way, it's in
Speaker 1: front of the dinner, thank you very much. That's why
Speaker 1: she felt she could let a little bit of the
Speaker 1: animal out. You know what, I'm not that she felt
Speaker 1: comfortable in at home, not knowing that Dean was around
Speaker 1: the corner. You got a tailor, dozy antagonist to Luke
Speaker 1: and a Dean dumped. You're not going to be hungry
Speaker 1: for the jest lips. Yeah you're gonna wait, you guys,
Speaker 1: Dean talk about it, talk about it, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: talk about transition from goody two shoes to bad boy.
Speaker 1: Yeah you didn't expect that from him at all? No,
Speaker 1: I didn't. But now I'm like, whoa like now, just
Speaker 1: like because the last episode, Rory was climbing into his
Speaker 1: room being like, I hope you you aren't mad at
Speaker 1: me one day or whatever, and now he's just like
Speaker 1: filled with rage. And I was the guy code is
Speaker 1: you know, you don't pull that kind of stuff that
Speaker 1: just pulled on him. You don't do that, and that's
Speaker 1: going to get you pounded where I come from, You
Speaker 1: get beat up for going near somebody's girl or or
Speaker 1: trying to make you look bad in front of your girl.
Speaker 1: That's just a fight, you know, that's just a physical
Speaker 1: fight right there, somebody's getting their ass beat. And was
Speaker 1: really telling when Dean said, this is hit like, this
Speaker 1: is my town. I've done right. You gotta respect me,
Speaker 1: you know, right. So um, he deserved that, just deserved that.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was not being a good guy. He
Speaker 1: was not being a nice guy. Look all's fair in
Speaker 1: love and war. But you know, Dean never really responded,
Speaker 1: He never really backed him off the way you know
Speaker 1: old school says this is, you gotta back this guy out,
Speaker 1: You gotta blow him out of the equation. You got
Speaker 1: to do it in a way that is definitive. You know,
Speaker 1: it's not being quiet and you know stewing, and it's
Speaker 1: like you gotta show your girl, right, that's old like
Speaker 1: that Dean, That Dean that just showed up. Everybody likes
Speaker 1: that Dean that showed it. I don't like it at all.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? After what he went through? Oh,
Speaker 1: let's see, this is where the generation gap comes. This
Speaker 1: is where the generations differ. No, I do not like.
Speaker 1: I don't either, if you don't even know, not at all. Oh,
Speaker 1: we got another controversy on our hands. Well it could
Speaker 1: be a male female thing. Yeah, I just like I
Speaker 1: bring it on. Yeah, and so like and so not Dean.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's not his character to be like this,
Speaker 1: and I don't like that he is like, let's fight man.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, that's not Dean. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: If it was it was, if it wasn't as aggressive
Speaker 1: and just like a conversation, I think I would have
Speaker 1: taken it differently. But like, he literally just came out
Speaker 1: of nowhere. When earlier that morning he was kind of
Speaker 1: calm with Laurela, like suddenly something happened on Thanksgiving. Maybe
Speaker 1: it was just seeing this kiss, but yeah, and then
Speaker 1: when Jess said, um, like he's not gonna react because
Speaker 1: of Rory. Then it was like you saw everyone's characters
Speaker 1: changing or there, you know, in that moment he was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to react to you because he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to mess it up. I liked Jess in that scene.
Speaker 1: I did sort of team Jess, Like I would have
Speaker 1: loved to see Dean right up like to Luke's diner
Speaker 1: and like the sickest car with like a girl in
Speaker 1: the car and him roll down the window and be
Speaker 1: like screw you Jess and Rory like that would have
Speaker 1: been cool to me. But this whole like by the
Speaker 1: garbage came the car or I don't know, somehow no,
Speaker 1: because you know what I mean, a convertible do I
Speaker 1: want revenge? But likes like Pamela Anderson. It's like Pam
Speaker 1: Anderson to think of, like who's the perfect Pamela Anderson?
Speaker 1: But Scott, you like this tougher Dean, Well, that's that's
Speaker 1: your Chicago boy right there. You know, I was playing.
Speaker 1: I was being the nice guy. I was, you know,
Speaker 1: I was domesticated stars hollow, hybrid guy. And I met
Speaker 1: this fantastic girl and she just put me through the
Speaker 1: meat grinder because this. You know, this little salt off
Speaker 1: wonder hair boy came along and just messed with this manipulative,
Speaker 1: sort of sociopathic kid, you know, just messed up my
Speaker 1: whole life. And you know he's probably he restrained himself
Speaker 1: long enough to look to be the guy, and even
Speaker 1: that wasn't good enough for Rory. Right, So it's like,
Speaker 1: look what Rory is doing to these these guys. She's
Speaker 1: twisting them around. Their personalities, are changing, their second guessing
Speaker 1: themselves there. They're restraining themselves because she's so extraordinary and
Speaker 1: they just want to beat with her so much. And
Speaker 1: you know what, that's what happens between guys when something
Speaker 1: is lost, like that, when you're seventeen and you're in
Speaker 1: love and somebody pulls that kind of a number on
Speaker 1: you and you lose what you think is going to
Speaker 1: be your future. Yeah, think not in his mind. And
Speaker 1: now he's getting Now, he's getting mad. Now he's getting man,
Speaker 1: he's gonna fight. Now, he's going to fight back. So
Speaker 1: here's my question, and it's the conversation true, what's the
Speaker 1: what how much of the conversation with Laura Lae earlier
Speaker 1: that day do you think influenced his rate a great question.
Speaker 1: I was thinking none, But I think it was the kiss.
Speaker 1: I was thinking that the conversation with that bed effect
Speaker 1: of Rory more of that or sorry with Laura lai
Speaker 1: Um when Loria was like, well, he's going to move
Speaker 1: on to I think that's when Rory realized, like I
Speaker 1: should just kiss him because like he's going to move
Speaker 1: on and find a girl. He's not gonna be single forever,
Speaker 1: so she might as well move on too. But I
Speaker 1: didn't think anything of the Dozies conversation. Yeah, I didn't either.
Speaker 1: You really have to watch this show to the very
Speaker 1: last second, you know, like it's one of those shows
Speaker 1: because like I know, I'm so repetitive and say this
Speaker 1: every week, but like the biggest thing in the episode
Speaker 1: happened in the last three minutes. Mm hmmm. I also
Speaker 1: think we noticed uh Nancy's cottage Calicos for the first time,
Speaker 1: just saying I'm assuming it's a fabric store in town,
Speaker 1: but I've noticed. So. I had two new spottings this
Speaker 1: weekend stars all just saying what's next week? I don't
Speaker 1: know what's next week? Danielle, Oh, that'll do Pig. I
Speaker 1: remember what this episode is Season three, Episode ten. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, that wasn't that. I don't know that was
Speaker 1: a That was a much. That was a very spirited discussion,
Speaker 1: wasn't it. Yeah, there's there's so much in there. He's
Speaker 1: from blabbing on for an hour. Jesus, you could go
Speaker 1: just blab on forever this episode, there was so much.
Speaker 1: We've got to wrap it up, alright, kids, alright, so
Speaker 1: let's do favorite lines, Tara, go ahead. It wasn't a
Speaker 1: specific like favorite line, but the whole back and forth
Speaker 1: about the flowers is probably my favorite. Just answer from
Speaker 1: the episode, Danielle, I said it earlier, but lor like
Speaker 1: to Dean, just because you and Rory broke up doesn't
Speaker 1: mean we did. That's a good one. Is that a
Speaker 1: funny line? Is that funny? It's funny? It seemed to
Speaker 1: be funny. Was this best lines or funniest lines? Best lines? Okay,
Speaker 1: so we changed it so it's best lines. I think
Speaker 1: it's always been best. I mean, I don't want to
Speaker 1: just become the funny ones. I think they're mostly funny.
Speaker 1: I will say at the very very last five seconds
Speaker 1: of the episode, Kirk sleeping in the gazebo, you have
Speaker 1: they give an honorable mention to that, like Mike Kirk
Speaker 1: just like it doesn't phase him at all. I don't
Speaker 1: think I have. I've said mine uncool cat, which I
Speaker 1: think was, and then you have your mother's wit. I
Speaker 1: wish you'd give it back, and I think I think
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do honorable mention is Babette's kiss was you
Speaker 1: gotta give it something? I didn't. I didn't get into it,
Speaker 1: and we'll have to not do it. But maybe for
Speaker 1: for everyone listening to think about, would they have had
Speaker 1: a brawl that big in front of company? I feel
Speaker 1: like no, but maybe it's just the wheels came off
Speaker 1: and it was at a cont I think it's touchy,
Speaker 1: So maybe yeah, because Chard was like I haven't talked
Speaker 1: about it since that day, Like he's like, I want
Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. But I mean, but that's
Speaker 1: a But that's exactly the kind of scenario that that
Speaker 1: makes laurel Ize sick to her stomach. All that pretentious
Speaker 1: and now you've got a French couple and Richard speaking French,
Speaker 1: and she was just she was probably gagging, like you've
Speaker 1: got to be kidding me. People, these are my parents,
Speaker 1: this is what they aspire to it's like they'd rather
Speaker 1: be French or British than you know, good parents to me, no, absolutely,
Speaker 1: but it was how she saw her parents jumping up
Speaker 1: and down because you know, there's a little culture in
Speaker 1: the room, you know, for God's say, you make me sick?
Speaker 1: Where were you when I needed you? Right? So she
Speaker 1: doesn't respect them at all and she doesn't like them
Speaker 1: at all. That's really apparent in this episode. So you
Speaker 1: know that's what makes horse races. So what alright, that's it, everybody,
Speaker 1: Thanks Danielle, Thanks Amy, thank you, Tara. Wonderful discussion, deep
Speaker 1: fried Korean Thanksgiving, and that's gonna wrap Episode nine, Season three.
