Speaker 1: I have something I want to pitch to you guys.
Speaker 2: Okay, we've seen you pitch. You're good. I saw you
Speaker 2: in Philly.
Speaker 1: Not that kind of pitch. I thought you were going
Speaker 1: to talk about like TV show pitching. I was like,
Speaker 1: we've all pitched those together. So this came to me
Speaker 1: the other day and I don't even know. Oh no,
Speaker 1: I do know how it came to me when we
Speaker 1: were thinking about a podcast name. Okay, okay, so I
Speaker 1: have a long name. I have two last names. My
Speaker 1: my legal name is Danielle Christine Fischel Carp that's a lot.
Speaker 3: I knew the middle name Christine Christine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so wonderful that you say that Christine means
Speaker 1: nothing to my family. The name means yeah, Like it's
Speaker 1: not it's not a family name. I think it's just
Speaker 1: I was named.
Speaker 3: Hold on, your brother's name is.
Speaker 1: Christopher, Christopher, right, so they just And by the way,
Speaker 1: my dad's wife is Christine, so he is he is,
Speaker 1: he has got in his in his world. So Christine
Speaker 1: doesn't mean anything to me. My my parents could not
Speaker 1: agree on a name when they were pregnant with me,
Speaker 1: and then after I was born. My name came from
Speaker 1: a Danielle Steel book that was literally on the on.
Speaker 4: The dresser in the hospital.
Speaker 1: My mom looked over and was like, what about Danielle,
Speaker 1: And my dad was like, great, I love it. And
Speaker 1: that's where Danielle came from. Okay, Christine doesn't really mean
Speaker 1: anything to me, and my name is already long. When
Speaker 1: I got married, I wanted to have Carp in my
Speaker 1: name because I wanted to have the same last name
Speaker 1: as my son's. But I when I direct, I go
Speaker 1: by Danielle Fischel. When I'm doing things with my kids' school,
Speaker 1: I just go by Danielle Karp. When I'm getting on
Speaker 1: a flight, I have to have, you know, all my
Speaker 1: names on there.
Speaker 2: And so you just told me your name is Mandy.
Speaker 2: So you are your mixing stuff up all the time.
Speaker 2: We don't even know what you're called. Don't know.
Speaker 1: But what if I just save everyone at Google Search?
Speaker 1: What if I changed my middle name to Topanga so
Speaker 1: that I could also.
Speaker 3: Just so you want to you legally take the name.
Speaker 1: To listen, I'm already being called to Penga all the time.
Speaker 1: What if when I directed something, it just said directed
Speaker 1: by Topega, like instead.
Speaker 4: Of like share you want to be you want to
Speaker 4: be I want to be share.
Speaker 3: Can you retroactively get residuals for the episode of Boy
Speaker 3: Meets World where it's at executive executive Penga go back
Speaker 3: into that. That's funny. So you're just you're just thinking, like, embrace,
Speaker 3: embrace the aspect of your life.
Speaker 2: Are you being serious or is this a bit? I
Speaker 2: guess this is not a bit.
Speaker 1: I'm dead serious because Chris, like I said, Christine doesn't mean.
Speaker 4: Anything to me.
Speaker 1: I already have a long name. I wouldn't do it
Speaker 1: if it was going to be like Danielle Christine to
Speaker 1: I just.
Speaker 3: Had like a very clear vision that I have to
Speaker 3: This is kind of off subject, but I want and
Speaker 3: you know, the obey image like the I want that
Speaker 3: with the face.
Speaker 4: Can we just make that.
Speaker 3: The giants face. It's shepherd fairy. Shepherd Fairy created this
Speaker 3: like infamy. I want that with that would be a
Speaker 3: stencil I could start spraying everywhere anyway, A lot.
Speaker 1: Of that idea, but I think all I would need
Speaker 1: to do to legally do it. By the way, it also,
Speaker 1: like I said, how I answer to it all the time.
Speaker 4: Anyway, it doesn't.
Speaker 3: Bother you in the slightest no, I want to slip
Speaker 3: and call you to Panga you no. For example, when
Speaker 3: somebody I'm like, okay, I'm not mad, I understand, but
Speaker 3: I'm definitely not excited or like I'm willing to embrace it.
Speaker 1: I'm like one of our really good friend's wives said
Speaker 1: to me once, oh.
Speaker 4: My gosh, I didn't know you guys were going to
Speaker 4: be here. It's so good to see you. Jensen gave
Speaker 4: him a Huggin was like bye to Panga, was great
Speaker 4: to see you, and literally then turned around and started
Speaker 4: to walk away.
Speaker 1: And then she slow turned around and she was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I can't believe I just did that.
Speaker 4: It's to me.
Speaker 1: It isn't about It's so much more memorable. It is
Speaker 1: an absolute brand. It is a brand, and there's no
Speaker 1: denying that, other than to Panga Canyon, which isn't as
Speaker 1: well defined of a brand. If you have me, no,
Speaker 1: my face is synonymous with that word, and I I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 3: I'm just like, why not, just well, what you really
Speaker 3: need to do? I mean, yeah, sure, change your name yourself,
Speaker 3: but then y'all also need to like trademark to Panga.
Speaker 3: Can you can you trade rand it? I don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: like it's a it's a name. She should become to Panga, inc.
Speaker 3: And yes, you should own has.
Speaker 2: Has Jensen ever called you to Panga in bed?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 4: God, that's uh watched the show?
Speaker 1: Jensen didn't watch the show so to like he had
Speaker 1: only seen two episodes before this before we started the podcast,
Speaker 1: and I and he may have even seen zero episodes.
Speaker 1: Maybe he saw two episodes when before we started the podcast,
Speaker 1: but only those two episodes after we started dating.
Speaker 4: He had never seen the show.
Speaker 3: I've never seen the show. I thought Matthew Lawrence was
Speaker 3: on the show the whole time. I thought he was
Speaker 3: the second lead.
Speaker 6: Oh geez, I think matt was writer. Yeah, yeah, I'm
Speaker 6: all for it for the joke. I mean, you just
Speaker 6: like it for the bit I do.
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 2: It's like, but I mean, that's you're that's it's you're
Speaker 2: changing your name. You're legally changing your name.
Speaker 1: I think I'd have to put it in the I
Speaker 1: think i'd have to like put it in the newspaper.
Speaker 1: I think part of legally changing your name is you
Speaker 1: have to publicly announce it, Like I'm you.
Speaker 2: Have to change all your documents.
Speaker 3: There's this thing as a newspaper. You have to publicly
Speaker 3: announce you do.
Speaker 4: You have to publicly announce it.
Speaker 3: Put it on a blog somewhere exactly.
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: You can put it on the Internet whatever, but you
Speaker 1: do have to like write it somewhere that Danielle Christine
Speaker 1: Fisher Karp is now going to be known as Danielle
Speaker 1: Topanga Fish.
Speaker 3: I think I'm going for myself.
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it with myself before you get there.
Speaker 2: I'm going to trademark it myself. You have to buy
Speaker 2: it for me, don't you will? Why don't you change
Speaker 2: your name? How important is Alan? How important is Alan?
Speaker 4: Why don't you don't? Why don't you just become.
Speaker 2: Four C for?
Speaker 3: I should?
Speaker 2: I should? That's what I should. Trademark is Will Will
Speaker 2: FIHENI yes for Dell, Yeah.
Speaker 3: No, Ill said Will set out loud like, oh, then
Speaker 3: you have to change your name as if people don't
Speaker 3: say it every day.
Speaker 2: It's already her name. And like Susan when we when
Speaker 2: we got already talked about changing her last name to
Speaker 2: my name, and I was like, she was.
Speaker 3: Like, I don't know if I want to do. Just like, dude,

Speaker 3: your passports. You got change its like I love you,
Speaker 3: you love me, We get it.
Speaker 2: You don't have to change your name, so, I mean,
Speaker 2: there's just a lot that goes in with having to
Speaker 2: do it.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: That said, it's kind of worth the bit. But also,
Speaker 2: your initials now are d c.
Speaker 4: F c's kind of sounds like carp is a K,
Speaker 4: d c f.

Speaker 3: That is so weird. I was like, oh, this is

Speaker 2: He's like using bright red.
Speaker 3: Oh you are Daniel Fishal and I am righter strong
Speaker 3: your own friend.
Speaker 2: I'm Wilfordell.
Speaker 8: Never my gosh.
Speaker 1: Jumping into today's recap, we are recapping season six, episode six,
Speaker 1: Hogs and Kisses. It originally aired October thirtieth, nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 4: The synopsis.
Speaker 1: After a director casts Sean to play Tipega's boyfriend in
Speaker 1: a promotional film, Corey is certain the duo or harboring
Speaker 1: romantic feelings for one another. When he forces them to
Speaker 1: go on a date and explore their emotions, things get
Speaker 1: even more complicated. Meanwhile, Eric and Jack adjust their manners
Speaker 1: for the sake of Rachel. This one was directed by
Speaker 1: Jeff McCracken. It was written by David Brownfield, a new name.
Speaker 1: He began his career as a writer on the Drew
Speaker 1: Carey Show and a Tim Curry show called Over the Top.
Speaker 1: But he went on to become the senior Vice President
Speaker 1: of Current Programming at CBS, and he oversaw the development
Speaker 1: of shows like CSI and Cis, The Good Wife, Big
Speaker 1: Bang Theory, and How I Met Your Other And as
Speaker 1: if that wasn't enough, he would go on to become
Speaker 1: an executive producer at Dick Wolfe Entertainment and he led
Speaker 1: the creative team first seven prime time series YEP.
Speaker 4: So before I jump into I'm sorry, I just.
Speaker 2: Just quickly about Brownfield. You know, he he wasn't a
Speaker 2: writer when he came on our show. He was our
Speaker 2: ABC rep. Oh so ABC would center represent representative to
Speaker 2: be on all the run throughs and all the stuff.
Speaker 2: He was our ABC rep. And then he joined our cast,
Speaker 2: joined our writers, which rarely happens.
Speaker 3: Yeah, line.
Speaker 2: And then when I was watching, I was like, David Brownfield,
Speaker 2: is that the same guy?
Speaker 3: And it's the same.
Speaker 2: We should totally have him on because he's kind of
Speaker 2: in charge, like in charge of TV. Now.
Speaker 4: That would be wonderful if we could have him on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I him.
Speaker 4: We will reach out to him, see if he wants
Speaker 4: to join us.
Speaker 1: Before I jump into our guest stars who would like
Speaker 1: to share their overall thoughts.
Speaker 2: I went first last time rider, uh I.
Speaker 3: It's a It's a really mind melting episode for me,
Speaker 3: Like just watching it, it was like, how did this come about?
Speaker 3: Why is this here?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Ben is so funny, so I don't care. I don't care,
Speaker 3: Like Ben's just so funny. I think this is like
Speaker 3: again like after last week, I'm like Ben's performances are
Speaker 3: just making what is you know? And and it's also
Speaker 3: and Corey right, it's also the Corey character. I love neurotics,
Speaker 3: stressed out Corey and this is pure that. So I
Speaker 3: was I was like, oh, I'm fine with that. The
Speaker 3: Bet story is just to me, you know, kind of
Speaker 3: a joke.
Speaker 9: At this point, it's like, why are you.
Speaker 3: Even doing this? This is like kind of a waste set. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so it's a bummer, but but no, it was fun.
Speaker 3: You know, it's weird. It's a weird episode, and I
Speaker 3: have all my personal feelings, which I'm sure you do
Speaker 3: to Danielle, like why are they making us kissing? And
Speaker 3: why is everybody gas like poor Corey about this terror?
Speaker 9: Man, Like just say no, I don't know. So that
Speaker 9: the whole like, yeah, we'll get into it.
Speaker 3: I'm sure about how we how we feel about kissing
Speaker 3: and people kissing, and like how different it is now
Speaker 3: than it was for us then, you know, both personally
Speaker 3: but also culturally.
Speaker 9: It seems like it seems like I.
Speaker 3: Don't know, so there's there's weirdness there, but there's some
Speaker 3: classic moments in this episode that are really good and
Speaker 3: they're mostly bet there, mostly Bent's performance.
Speaker 9: I just yeah, but yeah. When it came to the
Speaker 9: food fight stuff, I was like, really, really we did
Speaker 9: a food fight.
Speaker 3: I barely remember this. I think we did, and that's
Speaker 3: the whole point of this whole thing is to set
Speaker 3: up that food I was like, that's a lot, okay,
Speaker 3: but everyone's good.
Speaker 9: It's fun, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I agree with everything you said.
Speaker 2: I get. I could watch Ben do that version of
Speaker 2: Corey for five hundred episodes. He's so funny, just ridiculously fun.
Speaker 2: The story makes no sense. It's also a story we've
Speaker 2: done now a number of times. How many times? Can
Speaker 2: the kiss? Does the kiss mean anything? Can you not
Speaker 2: kiss without it meaning something? Wait a second, we did this.
Speaker 3: We did this though it's but it's not we did
Speaker 3: this with you kissed the French, you kissed me before
Speaker 3: we went to friends, and I.
Speaker 2: Felt nothing like we've literally done this exact same thing already.
Speaker 2: But none of that mattered because Ben was making me
Speaker 2: laugh out loud almost every time he spoke, and so
Speaker 2: it was just I didn't care the food fight stuff.
Speaker 2: We had a producer on the show that had a
Speaker 2: very strange food fetish when it came it was almost
Speaker 2: like a sexuality when it came to food. So that's
Speaker 2: where he was going with this. It's hey, really, yeah, yes, so.
Speaker 3: We did multiple food I don't remember there was more.
Speaker 4: But it's also like qureantapanga have one too, Panga have one?
Speaker 4: And I remember them.
Speaker 1: I think the movie is called nine and a half
Speaker 1: Weeks where there's like some they have sex in a
Speaker 1: food fight, and that movie was mentioned to me during
Speaker 1: that episode about seventy five times.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the feet in the Marin era. Then on
Speaker 2: my face, that's all.
Speaker 9: It is kind of but the food fight thing is
Speaker 9: kind of a standard kids show it is.
Speaker 2: That was like I was on Nickelodeon that was like
Speaker 2: my ten food.
Speaker 1: Nothing about this episode that says we are still a
Speaker 1: kid's show.
Speaker 2: That's true, except maybe the food.
Speaker 3: No, even the food fights because it's sexualized. So no.
Speaker 2: But if I I don't even care what the story
Speaker 2: is anymore, I'm over it for the b story. But
Speaker 2: if I have to see Jack and Eric and Rachel
Speaker 2: just in the apartment for another episode, I'm gonna lose it.
Speaker 2: It's like, are you kidding me? Now? We're just the
Speaker 2: three of us in that one little space trying to
Speaker 2: move this.
Speaker 3: Girl still it at the time, right, like maybe from.
Speaker 2: An standpoint because you don't have to, yeah, exactly, like.
Speaker 3: You're trying to make again, you're trying to make Matt
Speaker 3: laugh constantly, exactly, I can tell that You're like, we
Speaker 3: broke a bunch of times in the middle of the
Speaker 3: of this of the scene.
Speaker 2: So again, the story is just a side the a story.
Speaker 2: I could watch that Ben all the time. He was
Speaker 2: so funny. It might be my favorite Ben Savage performance
Speaker 2: I've ever seen.
Speaker 3: He's just so good. He's as an elder season six,
Speaker 3: he's also.
Speaker 2: Shredded, like he looks when he comes in and then
Speaker 2: when he rips off, he's like, damn, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 2: you don't remember that.
Speaker 3: I remember that on the day I remember him being
Speaker 3: Oh god, Ben is I mean, we always because he
Speaker 3: would like do push ups and stuff like he would
Speaker 3: work out.
Speaker 9: But I remember like when that happened to everyone was like,
Speaker 9: oh my god.
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, that's Ben's body.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it was no. So overall I liked it. Again,
Speaker 2: the kissing thing absurd. Just everything you said I agree
Speaker 2: with one hundred percent.
Speaker 4: Couldn't agree more about Ben's performance.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't need to be the third person to
Speaker 1: say the exact same things. It's perfect. I love this
Speaker 1: version of Corey. I think it's so funny. Every every
Speaker 1: other aspect of this episode is maybe the worst episode
Speaker 1: of television I've ever seen ever in my life.
Speaker 3: Because you're in it. Is that because you feel so
Speaker 3: awkward about like the kissing and the no you actually
Speaker 3: think it's performances too.
Speaker 1: Everybody else but Ben I think, Yeah, I think it's terrible.
Speaker 4: I don't. There's not one redeeming quality other than Ben.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 1: It makes no sense, it's stupid and it is not funny.
Speaker 1: It's if I have to watch, if I have to
Speaker 1: watch this be storyline, Oh I can't.
Speaker 2: I can't with the b storyline. One more episode.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Also, we had somebody right in and I said,
Speaker 1: I would absolutely let you know the moment when I
Speaker 1: realized that as Danielle, I was done with the show
Speaker 1: and I checked out my soul off my body.
Speaker 4: It's this episode, is it?
Speaker 2: I that a little bit of a writer in this episode?
Speaker 3: I'm already gone, but I mean, you're a writer. Was
Speaker 3: like I went to college and I was like, yeah,
Speaker 3: you're a.
Speaker 2: Different Sean in this because Sean is just like, hey, Corey,
Speaker 2: what's it like, He's a totally normal There's nothing Sean
Speaker 2: about Sean anymore. Is just now a guy?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, we can get into it. But it was
Speaker 3: interesting how little the rest of us had to do.
Speaker 3: Like it's like, once they came up with this Corey
Speaker 3: being this Corey, which is hysterical and is killing it,
Speaker 3: the rest of us are just like sounding boards, Like
Speaker 3: we're just like normal people reacting the way normal people do,
Speaker 3: so we don't get to be funny or interesting. And
Speaker 3: you know, Trina has probably more dialogue than she's ever
Speaker 3: had in an episode, and it's all about Corey, which
Speaker 3: nothing she is no if anything, she becomes aggressive sexually
Speaker 3: and kisses him, which is kind of course, what is happening.
Speaker 1: Also, she says this the only she has more dialogue,
Speaker 1: but it's one sentence with different words over and over again.
Speaker 4: Corey, You're crazy, Corey. They would never do that, Corey.
Speaker 4: These are the same people, Corey. There, there's no.
Speaker 1: Way it's the same thing, said six different ways. They
Speaker 1: gave her nothing of real like and she's great, she's wonderful, like,
Speaker 1: she's she totally of her going let me show you
Speaker 1: how I can kiss you and it won't mean anything
Speaker 1: when Corey is the person who's already kissed seven other
Speaker 1: people and been the one trying to explain to Tapanga
Speaker 1: how when they kissed him it meant nothing.
Speaker 3: We've done We've.
Speaker 4: Already done this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 4: For and then are we are you serious?
Speaker 1: There's a college video and they it's a couple, and
Speaker 1: then they're gonna have a makeout hotter hotter, and there's
Speaker 1: no hesitation between two friends who have have been platonic
Speaker 1: friends supposedly since they were toddlers.
Speaker 4: To just be like, yes, this man, and I'm on
Speaker 4: camera and I gotta do it.
Speaker 1: I'm suddenly a paid actor for real, Who's like, this
Speaker 1: is my job?
Speaker 4: It is so.
Speaker 1: I Honestly, I watched the episode and I was like,
Speaker 1: I can't believe I have to do the rest of
Speaker 1: this podcast, Like, I can't this is it, this is it.
Speaker 4: I can't believe. I can't believe I have to if
Speaker 4: this is it.
Speaker 1: I have questioned before, is this the moment Boy means
Speaker 1: World Jump the Shark, and then been like watch the
Speaker 1: next episode and been like, Nope, absolutely not.
Speaker 4: This is it.
Speaker 1: There had better be even one redeeming moment for Boy
Speaker 1: Meets World for the rest of this But I think
Speaker 1: we should have been canceled after this episode, rib them
Speaker 1: off the air.
Speaker 2: Tommy, maybe Tommy stuff you are extreme, Yeah, this is
Speaker 2: this is a big one for you.
Speaker 3: It is totally like Ben's. It's all just Corey and
Speaker 3: Corey's story, and Corey's performed like it is so funny
Speaker 3: to me, and they just got off on that joke,
Speaker 3: like they were just like, oh my god, what if
Speaker 3: Corey just keeps freaking out and we keep you know
Speaker 3: that is It's just they were just upset.
Speaker 1: It was good, give him that all of that, keep
Speaker 1: it the same and have it be even he actually
Speaker 1: has a reason.
Speaker 4: It's not funny when the man is we're gaslighting him.
Speaker 1: It's a little less funny when I'm like, he should
Speaker 1: be freaking out.
Speaker 4: I'd been pissed.
Speaker 1: Off too, Like give him a given, just the underpants,
Speaker 1: give have him walk in and have that situation.
Speaker 4: He rips, he pulls up the blanket.
Speaker 1: He's like, underpants, have you always had feelings for each other?
Speaker 8: Make it?
Speaker 4: Make it a little.
Speaker 9: But also just at any point if Sean and Panga
Speaker 9: recognize this is a little awkward, but yes, you're like
Speaker 9: just just just a slipping nothing bops. Okay, I guess
Speaker 9: we have to kiss because it's our job, which we're
Speaker 9: getting paid.
Speaker 3: I don't know, okay job. But like if there was
Speaker 3: just a little bit of like sorry Corey and then
Speaker 3: we did it, and then we were like, yeah, we
Speaker 3: shouldn't have done that, or any of any acknowledgment, you
Speaker 3: still could have had the same story with us being
Speaker 3: like grown ups about it, like, oh, yeah, you see
Speaker 3: your point of view, dude, like that, does you know
Speaker 3: what would.
Speaker 4: Have solved all of this?
Speaker 3: For to go kiss I'm not kissing him. Are you
Speaker 3: okay with it?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I guess so, Corey, are you okay with it?
Speaker 1: And for him to go oh, yeah, sure, Yeah, what's
Speaker 1: the big deal? And then we do it and he's
Speaker 1: like it spins him out of control, and we're like,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, how did we you know? Then okay, then
Speaker 1: I even I can buy all of it, none of it.
Speaker 1: We all are just like the whole world is operating
Speaker 1: on some weird level where this is just totally fine,
Speaker 1: and you're not.
Speaker 3: How much of that is because we were a TV
Speaker 3: show where we had to make out with people that
Speaker 3: we just met, that we barely knew as a job
Speaker 3: all the time, Like, how much of this is the
Speaker 3: result of TV writers and TV actors trying to write
Speaker 3: a storyline that just really doesn't make sense?
Speaker 1: Actually, are our TV writers so out of touch with
Speaker 1: what it's like to be a.
Speaker 3: Huge human to kiss a person? I mean.
Speaker 2: Talking about that, talking about the kiss just I love
Speaker 2: you both so much. It's one of the worst TV
Speaker 2: kisses I think I've ever seen. It's like you're both
Speaker 2: listening to two different songs and trying to make it
Speaker 2: make a mash up.
Speaker 3: It was like, that is a You don't think we
Speaker 3: have old magic chemistry.
Speaker 9: You do not.
Speaker 2: It's like you guys hadn't rehearsed you hadn't done anything.
Speaker 1: You probably game together. We probably didn't. We probably. I
Speaker 1: don't remember making out all week.
Speaker 3: I don't only remember this episode because at some point
Speaker 3: in our lives over the last you know, eight years
Speaker 3: or whatever you mentioned we had an episode where we
Speaker 3: kissed and I was like, what are you talking. I
Speaker 3: don't remember no recollection. But once you said it, I
Speaker 3: was like, oh, right, because I replaced Corey in some
Speaker 3: weird thing and I have to kiss you. I was like, Okay,
Speaker 3: I guess that makes sense. But watching it, I'm like, no, this,
Speaker 3: this doesn't.
Speaker 4: Make sense, doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't get it.
Speaker 2: Also, but it is very real though, that a college
Speaker 2: puts out a video saying come to this college because
Speaker 2: you can meet somebody that you're going to fall in
Speaker 2: love with.
Speaker 3: That's a real thing, totally obvious.
Speaker 2: I don't know everyone's going.
Speaker 3: In that video.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's they.
Speaker 4: Send those out for elementary school. Now we're getting them.
Speaker 1: We're trying to get Adler into you know, first grade,
Speaker 1: and they're they're sending out you.
Speaker 2: Might meet you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to meet your Corey, come here, you
Speaker 1: want to meet your Topanga, come to this.
Speaker 3: I'm so you know, like I feel like there's a
Speaker 3: like a three or four hundred page book, like a
Speaker 3: PhD thesis to be written about the magic of kissing
Speaker 3: on point and how all the nuances right because we
Speaker 3: kiss and it's clearly magnetic.
Speaker 9: For Corey, it's it's it says the thing.
Speaker 3: We we don't feel the magic consoorcealment of our kiss now, uh,
Speaker 3: but we don't. We don't acknowledge that. But but then
Speaker 3: when he and Trina kiss, they clearly don't feel it,
Speaker 3: they clearly don't end it. But but I can't look
Speaker 3: what's going on. It's like when does a kiss magically
Speaker 3: in sourceal somebody to be like, oh mama, I want
Speaker 3: to marry you. You're in love.
Speaker 2: When when the universe says that it's okay for you
Speaker 2: guys to be together, the kiss works.
Speaker 3: Right, So you have to try it out kissing everybody
Speaker 3: to get that, and then you really know when when
Speaker 3: you kiss Ricky don't get to France.
Speaker 2: Is that the old saying how many frogs you have
Speaker 2: to kiss before you see you get a prince?
Speaker 3: That's what this is. That's what it is.
Speaker 2: You know, how many frogs you have to kiss before
Speaker 2: you kiss.
Speaker 3: Prince, the logic and the magic. It's like, it's just
Speaker 3: the twists and the turns, and it's like, I feel
Speaker 3: like maybe our writers just wanted to watch us make
Speaker 3: out in different combinations. Like they literally were like, how
Speaker 3: can we get a situation where we're writer and Danielle kiss,
Speaker 3: and how do we get a situation where where Trina
Speaker 3: then kiss. Let's let's just mix them up.
Speaker 2: And then they stot on me entirely. I don't think
Speaker 2: I kiss a person for the rest of like for
Speaker 2: at some point, you're not going to give anything. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we're not. We're not going to have him kiss anybody
Speaker 2: or do anything. We're just we're done with that.
Speaker 3: You have many romantic partners after this.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think. I think it's all all Maitland
Speaker 2: all the Time's a pretty big turn from where we start.
Speaker 3: I mean, you're romantic desires and then.
Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but I don't believe I have
Speaker 2: any romantic We have at.
Speaker 1: Least fifteen, if not sixteen more episodes left in this season,
Speaker 1: plus twenty two of next season, so we're looking at
Speaker 1: like thirty eight episodes of All You Do is Think
Speaker 1: and Talk about Rachel.
Speaker 2: No, because I think by next season. I'm also thinking
Speaker 2: about food quite a bit.
Speaker 3: Well what, I don't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: They have me with the pizza and they have like
Speaker 2: it becomes a thing.
Speaker 3: Are you serious? Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 2: I mean you got it right to the fact that
Speaker 2: I don't fit in my clothes anymore. So I mean, gosh,
Speaker 2: but I think that's what that and then I just
Speaker 2: become the fun It's like, make him so crazy. I
Speaker 2: think we're going to be as amazed as you guys
Speaker 2: are with seeing yourself checked out. I think we're going
Speaker 2: to be amazed at how big Eric gets comically in
Speaker 2: season seven. It's real, and I think it even jumps
Speaker 2: farther than that to where it's becomes a caricature of
Speaker 2: even this caricature.
Speaker 3: Well, it's funny because I was thinking watching this, I
Speaker 3: was I was thinking, how much of a kind of
Speaker 3: a new level of comedic acting you have achieved by
Speaker 3: this season, Like because I was there was someone there
Speaker 3: was one line that was very clearly like a Jim
Speaker 3: Carrey rip offline. I forget what it was, and you
Speaker 3: delivered it. It was like you gave them what they wanted,
Speaker 3: but you also made it your own, whereas like season four,
Speaker 3: Will would have and it would have been fine, it
Speaker 3: would have been what they thought, you know when they
Speaker 3: wrote it like it was just and I had this
Speaker 3: more when it was like Will's like on, He's like
Speaker 3: above it now, you.
Speaker 9: Know what I mean?
Speaker 3: It was like it was like you were the expert
Speaker 3: who was now just like dabbling, like let me just
Speaker 3: do a little joke because you just got it, you know, yeah,
Speaker 3: and you're so comfortable like that. That's what that's there's
Speaker 3: part of it that's enjoyable for me just because I'm
Speaker 3: like Will, because you know so much. And I didn't
Speaker 3: get to see this, like I never watched these scenes.
Speaker 3: I never watched these rehearsals. So I'm sitting there going wow,
Speaker 3: well and mass spend a lot of time to get
Speaker 3: because I just never I missed that. I didn't actually
Speaker 3: spend that much time with Matt. It was two shows.
Speaker 1: It was too we talked, he didn't get to didn't
Speaker 1: the A and the B storylines, didn't get to spend
Speaker 1: time together.
Speaker 4: So it's really.
Speaker 3: Fun to just see you having fun with Matt. Rachel
Speaker 3: hasn't met anybody else in the cast yet.
Speaker 2: Mister Foenie.
Speaker 3: Correct, what we'll think about it? Who there have you?
Speaker 2: Have you done any scenes or anyone We've not even seen.
Speaker 1: The whole person, which means also on our day to day,
Speaker 1: I was spending zero minutes, zero minutes with you, even.
Speaker 2: Matt and and Mayland now season six, where you weren't
Speaker 2: dating Matt.
Speaker 3: Still at this point season.
Speaker 1: Six, nineteen ninety eight, Matt and I had just gone
Speaker 1: to prom together in June of ninety eight.
Speaker 3: Weren't you dating Lance? It's a problem with Matt, Yeah,
Speaker 3: problem with l and Lance.
Speaker 4: Came with me.
Speaker 1: I went to Matt's prom. Yeah, oh okay, I went
Speaker 1: to Matt's. I was Matt's prom date. Lance was my
Speaker 1: prom date. And then and I took it when you.
Speaker 3: Kissed, did you feel them? Let's talk about with Land.
Speaker 10: Ironically, I would have thought the magic like you wouldn't
Speaker 10: have any watching you can get that kiss your own podcast.
Speaker 3: I think that's well because he knows, he knows that
Speaker 3: he's in love. So it's fine, Jenson, What is wrong
Speaker 3: with you? She's just making out on the podcast. It's
Speaker 3: the job.
Speaker 6: So anything it was was Lance before Matt or after
Speaker 6: Matt after Matt?
Speaker 2: Right, So then you would buy season six. You're probably
Speaker 2: dating Lance by now right this fall?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I started dating Lance at this point because
Speaker 1: this is October aired October thirtieth. Yeah, somewhere somewhere around
Speaker 1: here meet and.
Speaker 2: Lance, right, But you and Matt, we didn't even know
Speaker 2: you guys dated, so even if you broke up, there
Speaker 2: was like you guys didn't act differently up.
Speaker 4: He didn't a very mature Yeah, we.
Speaker 3: Can actually date the moment that you met Lance, right,
Speaker 3: because they it was a it was and you guys. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Exactly what date that was, but I know it was
Speaker 1: fall of ninety eight because then Prom of ninety nine.
Speaker 1: He was my prom date and then he broke up
Speaker 1: with me after Prom. So that's that's that, okay. Jumping
Speaker 1: into our guest stars, Tom Gallup as Simon Gallup, a
Speaker 1: TV regular in the nineties, appearing on shows like Murphy, Brown, Blossom, and.
Speaker 2: Hey goes well with the bumping your nose. So that's
Speaker 2: his line.
Speaker 4: Was My question is Will who was he on Seinfeld?
Speaker 2: I can't believe raise. Yeah, he plays the guy who
Speaker 2: uh Elaine Days who says she has a big head
Speaker 2: and she's like, that's it. He's a bad break upper.
Speaker 3: That's okay.
Speaker 1: His name is Alan and it's the episode is called
Speaker 1: the Andrea Doria yep.
Speaker 4: But you probably recognize.
Speaker 1: Him from The Bourne Ultimatum and The Bourne Supremacy as
Speaker 1: Tom Cronin or Will and Grace, where he played Rob
Speaker 1: for seventeen episodes.
Speaker 4: This guy worked a.
Speaker 1: Lot and still shows up on TV, most recently on
Speaker 1: the TV drama All Rise. And then we have Brian Turk,
Speaker 1: who played Isaac. He appeared on a ton of TV
Speaker 1: shows also from Wings to Sybil to The Jamie Foxx Show,
Speaker 1: and he shows up in Jurassic Park, The Lost World
Speaker 1: and a real classic big Fat Liar. He was also
Speaker 1: on the show Carnival. Sadly, Brian passed away from brain
Speaker 1: cancer in twenty nineteen at the very young age of
Speaker 1: forty nine. Now, before we jump into the true recap,
Speaker 1: we wanted to first celebrate a very special cameo seen
Speaker 1: in a very special scene.
Speaker 4: Of this episode Hogs and Kisses.
Speaker 1: I want to give a special thank you to Mariah
Speaker 1: mccarsky and her brother in law, Scott for first alerting
Speaker 1: us to this background actor. It is Matt Foster of Buffalo,
Speaker 1: New York. It was his only appearance on the show,
Speaker 1: and he can be seen sitting in the student union
Speaker 1: playing chess right as writer enters setting up the very
Speaker 1: memorable moment and a line read we still hear today underpants.
Speaker 1: Matt Foster was on that Boy Meets World set in
Speaker 1: September of nineteen ninety eight through the Make a Wish
Speaker 1: Foundation of Western New York. The seventeen year old had
Speaker 1: Rabdo Mayo sarcoma, an extremely aggressive and unusual muscular and
Speaker 1: soft tissue cancer. He was diagnosed to just fifteen, and
Speaker 1: after months of treatment, the family knew that things were
Speaker 1: not looking good. He was offered to make a wish trip,
Speaker 1: something he could do to get away from the harsh
Speaker 1: reality he was living, and he was told he could
Speaker 1: pick anything, and he chose to come to see his
Speaker 1: favorite show, Boy Meets World, being taped, and so his family,
Speaker 1: which included two parents and five siblings, and with the
Speaker 1: help of producer Karen McCain, made the trip to Los
Speaker 1: Angeles to sit in the audience. They sat in on
Speaker 1: the table read they were offered to have lunch with
Speaker 1: a star of their choice, and Matt shyly grinned with
Speaker 1: his answer.
Speaker 4: To Panga, we.
Speaker 1: Took pictures, We laughed at the size of his family
Speaker 1: who was on the trip with him, And even though
Speaker 1: I messed with him a little for being so nervous
Speaker 1: and shy, I remember cherishing the time I had with
Speaker 1: Matt and his family, and really any make a wish
Speaker 1: kid we were lucky enough to meet during our time
Speaker 1: on the show. The Fosters took pictures with the rest
Speaker 1: of the cast, and when it was time to return
Speaker 1: to the audience, matt and his dad took the liberty
Speaker 1: of staying on the floor, interested in seeing how things
Speaker 1: worked by behind the scenes, and that gutsy decision is
Speaker 1: what led Karen to ask if Matthew would like to
Speaker 1: be an extra in one of the.
Speaker 4: Scenes, and of course he said yes.
Speaker 1: And so Matthew is right there during an iconic boy
Speaker 1: meets World exchange, visible in at least three shots. You
Speaker 1: can't miss him. He's wearing his backwards green hat to
Speaker 1: cover his bald head. And then right before he left
Speaker 1: for the day, Ben handed him the torn tank top, yes,
Speaker 1: the one Cory rips off while yelling to Banga, but
Speaker 1: now it was emblazoned with his autograph. The cast signed
Speaker 1: enough scripts for Matt and his siblings, and Will promised
Speaker 1: him the next time he was in LA he would
Speaker 1: give him a grand tour of the area. Matt's favorite
Speaker 1: picture from that day was the one he took with
Speaker 1: his fore co stars Ben and Me and Writer and Trina,
Speaker 1: and when he got back to school, he even decided
Speaker 1: to draw it, but he removed everyone except me and him.
Speaker 3: Sorry.
Speaker 8: Writer.
Speaker 1: He asked his dad to send it to me, but
Speaker 1: the family wanted to keep it, and I don't blame them.
Speaker 1: It still hangs in their living room.
Speaker 4: Karen sent the.
Speaker 1: Fosters a VHS tape of the episode before it aired,
Speaker 1: and for a dance at Matt's school, they set up
Speaker 1: a special room so he could show all of his
Speaker 1: friends his big TV debut. But despite the happiness Matt
Speaker 1: had in Los Angeles, things changed on December seventh, when
Speaker 1: the hospital informed his family there was nothing else they
Speaker 1: could do. It was time to make sure he was
Speaker 1: as comfortable as possible, and on the way home from
Speaker 1: the hospital that day, Matt's dad asked him if there
Speaker 1: was anything he wanted to do, and he said he
Speaker 1: wanted to return to the Boy Meets World set. They
Speaker 1: called Karen immediately, and she said she would make it happen.
Speaker 1: But then when a last ditch clinical trial opened up
Speaker 1: in Houston, plans changed. The family wanted to try whatever
Speaker 1: they could to prolong Matt's life, and then it was
Speaker 1: impossible to visit during the show's tape schedule. On January
Speaker 1: twenty ninth, nineteen ninety nine, less than a month before
Speaker 1: his eighteenth birthday, Matt Foster lost his battle with cancer.
Speaker 1: Friends and family packed the Immaculate Conception Haffolic Church in
Speaker 1: East Aurora, standing room only to pay tribute to a
Speaker 1: boy who had become a symbol of strength and determination
Speaker 1: for his community, and nearby his coffin lay a wreath
Speaker 1: from the casting crew of Boymets World. His mom told
Speaker 1: the Buffalo News that week, one of the saddest things
Speaker 1: is that he never had a chance to decide what
Speaker 1: he wanted to do with his life. It all happened
Speaker 1: so fast for him. But he did love his trip
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles and meeting with the cast and the
Speaker 1: crew of Boymets World. That really was a dream come
Speaker 1: true for him. It was something he would not have
Speaker 1: ever forgotten, and now we can all remember it too.
Speaker 1: One month After his passing, the Matthew Foster Foundation was
Speaker 1: established to continue his positive impact on those experiencing a
Speaker 1: similar battle. The foundation's mission is to help families with
Speaker 1: children who are suffering from cancer by providing financial assistance
Speaker 1: to cover some of their extraordinary costs. These expenses can
Speaker 1: include rent payments, medical expenses, insurance, gift cards for food
Speaker 1: and gas, and funeral expenses. They assist an average of
Speaker 1: forty two West New York families each year, including six
Speaker 1: to seven families with funeral expenses. But we want to
Speaker 1: get that number even higher, so we are releasing a
Speaker 1: new T shirt in Matthew's honor, with one hundred percent
Speaker 1: of the profits to be donated to the foundation.
Speaker 4: Across the shirt, it.
Speaker 1: Loudly reads underpants, a classic straight from Boy Meets World
Speaker 1: Season six, and in honor of our scene partner, we've
Speaker 1: included a backwards green cap hanging from the exclamation point.
Speaker 1: It can be purchased now at Podmets Worldshow dot com,
Speaker 1: and again, one hundred percent of proceeds will go to
Speaker 1: the Matthew Foster Foundation, which you can learn more about
Speaker 1: at Matthew Foster Foundation dot com. Also worth noting they
Speaker 1: are an all volunteer organization, so almost every penny of
Speaker 1: every dollar goes right to their mission. Rest in peace.
Speaker 1: Matthew Foster, our fellow boy, meets world cast member in
Speaker 1: the backwards green hat.
Speaker 4: We would also like to thank.
Speaker 1: Matthew's dad, Bert Foster, for helping us with this tribute,
Speaker 1: and we will post some pictures from the family's trip
Speaker 1: on our Instagram. We'll be back with the recap after
Speaker 1: a short break. All right, jumping into our recap. We
Speaker 1: are in the Penbrook student Union. We are zoomed in
Speaker 1: on a clapboard, feeling very meta. Here calls out action
Speaker 1: and we're camera camera, How.
Speaker 3: Do we do this? What's happening? I was ready?
Speaker 2: Did you pause it to see if any of the
Speaker 2: names on there, like they put it like a manel.
Speaker 9: Or something like that.
Speaker 2: No, it's I thought it was going to be something
Speaker 2: something kind of you know, in joke, but it wasn't.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so funny.
Speaker 1: A director calls out action and we're in a video
Speaker 1: for possible incoming Penbrook freshmen to Panga and Corey enter
Speaker 1: the building, both staring directly at the camera, performing a
Speaker 1: little walk and talk. Tapanga introduces herself to the camera
Speaker 1: and Corey follows suit, but he's so awkward and fumbling
Speaker 1: over his words.
Speaker 2: Purpose of the bad acting from his favorites.
Speaker 3: I can go back in time, but we do a
Speaker 3: whole episode of Justice and Ben would love it. He
Speaker 3: would have been this is his favorite thing to do
Speaker 3: and he's so good at So it's perfect. It's like
Speaker 3: it's it's not over the top. It's actually like some
Speaker 3: of the most realistic performers world has ever had. Yeah,
Speaker 3: like Ben has, He's he's not indicating, he's just being about.
Speaker 3: It's like, it's so perfect, it's so good.
Speaker 2: Just the walking, even if he didn't speak, just the
Speaker 2: walking is so uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: All the way he looks, the way he looks at you.
Speaker 3: He can't do anything normal. He knows how to be
Speaker 3: is it's so funny, Like and I know exactly where
Speaker 3: that comes from. That comes from being a kid actor
Speaker 3: who knows that you can do the thing and having
Speaker 3: to sit through other kids auditioning or watching because we
Speaker 3: used to talk about it. We used to talk about
Speaker 3: like how you if you knew how to act as
Speaker 3: a kid and somebody couldn't, you would be like, oh god,
Speaker 3: they're really They're just never gonna get They just don't know.
Speaker 3: They don't know what to do with their mouth. They
Speaker 3: don't know, and it's like it's just never gonna happen,
Speaker 3: Like a certain level of comfort is just like necessary,
Speaker 3: and then gives himself that discomfort better than any actor.
Speaker 3: And you know, he's having the most fun of his life.
Speaker 3: He's the fun this entire episode, This is god yeah fun.
Speaker 1: Topanga flawlessly delivers her lines, but Corey's mistakes are never ending,
Speaker 1: and he's giving off incredible bad acting, a journey that
Speaker 1: takes them to a ugaverse of exciting experiments. After Corey
Speaker 1: robotically tells the students to come on, the director finally
Speaker 1: tells everyone to cut.
Speaker 3: Come on, come on, so come on, come on.
Speaker 1: The director finally tells everyone to cut. Corey shouts back.
Speaker 4: You think, where have you been? I stink.
Speaker 1: The director asks the couple to try it one more time,
Speaker 1: than sarcastically scoffs, maybe take fifty nine will be the jarm.
Speaker 1: Corey disagrees he knew back at take thirty three he
Speaker 1: was sucko, so he quits. Everyone in the building cheers
Speaker 1: at the news. Besides, Tapanga, I don't understand Corey and
Speaker 1: I were picked as the perfect freshman couple because of
Speaker 1: our natural chemistry. The director wonders, Yeah, where'd that go.
Speaker 1: Sean decides to intervene and urges Corey not to leave.
Speaker 1: He still wants to hear him butcher the word curriculum.
Speaker 1: Corey glares back, Oh yeah, if curric you comes, I
Speaker 1: don't even know what he says, but he's gonna sit
Speaker 1: up there. It's such an easy word, then let's hear
Speaker 1: you say it. Sean recites the word with ease, and
Speaker 1: Corey looks at him in awe, and it caught the
Speaker 1: attention of the director. He asks Sean to do that again,
Speaker 1: so Sean innocently repeats curriculum. The director is intrigued. Corey
Speaker 1: knows where this is going and agrees Shawn should take
Speaker 1: his place.
Speaker 4: Shawn and Topanga are both visibly hesitant.
Speaker 1: But Corey tells his friend, I don't want to be
Speaker 1: responsible for ruining this film. Topanga will make Sean feel comfortable.
Speaker 1: Shawn isn't sold.
Speaker 4: I think it's about it.
Speaker 3: Yes, so important.
Speaker 4: I'm go find another couple.
Speaker 3: Girlfriend to get the movie done. Yeah, what is this
Speaker 3: a job?
Speaker 10: Like?
Speaker 3: What is like?
Speaker 4: Where are we definitely not getting paid. I don't know,
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just this is where I'm like, what reality, where
Speaker 3: are writers leaning in? They're just they're they're like, how
Speaker 3: do we get this? Like what where did this pitch
Speaker 3: come from?
Speaker 2: But also this becomes a thing this season because remember
Speaker 2: this is also the Truman Show season where we're we
Speaker 2: do a takeoff on The Truman Show where Eric is
Speaker 2: just filming Rachel everywhere and all the people in the
Speaker 2: student union are watching her.
Speaker 3: So when you said that, I was thinking, we already
Speaker 3: did that episode when Corey was running around the camera
Speaker 3: and season one where.
Speaker 2: It's a straight up take of The Truman Show. Eric
Speaker 2: is operating all these cameras that he hides in the
Speaker 2: apartment like you do. And and so this kind of
Speaker 2: weird videos that pop up are a thing in this season.
Speaker 3: It's really strange. Well, I mean to be fair, like
Speaker 3: videos and like that, you know, being able to film
Speaker 3: your friends and stuff was relatively new, like was still
Speaker 3: like a thing that young people were doing for the
Speaker 3: first time, and our writers were probably like, well, that's cool,
Speaker 3: that's what the young's are doing. Let's let's write to it.
Speaker 3: But I just can't like what were they like, how
Speaker 3: can we get Corey jealous of Sean and to Panga like,
Speaker 3: is that what they were hoping? Because that is kind
Speaker 3: of funny, Like him freaking out is funny, But.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't know either. Sewn isn't sold.
Speaker 1: He says, I think it's a bad idea. Corey waves
Speaker 1: him off. Oh when did I ever have a bad idea?
Speaker 1: And I overact a response like a facial reaction.
Speaker 3: It's pretty great though, because it's pretty big. Yeah, it's
Speaker 3: like it's.
Speaker 4: Like the moment I died.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a sitcom facial express.
Speaker 4: Somebody fire me, Someone fire me.
Speaker 2: You are retroactively fired.
Speaker 3: Well, What's what I can't stand is what happens next,
Speaker 3: which is me being a good host. I can't speak.
Speaker 3: I'm awful, Like I literally misprint's the second or third word.
Speaker 3: I was like, wait, writer, you had one job, Like
Speaker 3: the joke is that you're good at this and I
Speaker 3: couldn't do It's.
Speaker 2: What There's nothing like taking two actors who have checked out,
Speaker 2: who don't want to be in the show the scene anymore,
Speaker 2: and having them carry the scene.
Speaker 3: Like we are. All this episode is doing is interrupting
Speaker 3: my dairy dog reading like that's like literally all that's
Speaker 3: happening right now is I'm like deep in a phone
Speaker 3: call from Lance and yeah, I'm like, oh, I have
Speaker 3: to show up and do that TV show still because man.
Speaker 4: As all of the stuff.
Speaker 1: Remember my one of my big complaints about like Tapega's
Speaker 1: date with Ricky was that could could we give them
Speaker 1: something fun to do?
Speaker 4: Please?
Speaker 1: What if this video wasn't just about a kiss, but
Speaker 1: it was about like, look how much.
Speaker 4: Fun there is? What are all the things there are
Speaker 4: to do in Penbrook?
Speaker 1: And it's Sean and Tapanga having a blast together and
Speaker 1: like actually having good chemistry or.
Speaker 3: Your hand at one point, like if I literally if
Speaker 3: it was just and Corey watching the video where like
Speaker 3: my hand goes, then it's even funnier because a decent.
Speaker 1: Conversation about something where then it's like then that we realized, wow,
Speaker 1: I didn't know you liked that, And there's like a
Speaker 1: moment of looking into each other's eyes.
Speaker 3: Or just the reality of other people thinking we make
Speaker 3: a cute couple. Like that is all it could be
Speaker 3: is the director being like, you guys make such a
Speaker 3: cute couple and they walk away or he walks away
Speaker 3: and Corey goes, they do with me, and then it's over,
Speaker 3: And then the whole episode is.
Speaker 2: Except hand the hand touching thing would be funny if
Speaker 2: it was literally like your hands just brushed each other.
Speaker 2: He keeps watching it. At the end, he's like, you're
Speaker 2: sleeping with my wife.
Speaker 4: Look at your hands.
Speaker 3: Hey you're not married, and b what are you talking like?
Speaker 3: You wonder why why they needed it to be an
Speaker 3: actual like kids.
Speaker 2: Because they wanted to because they wanted to see these
Speaker 2: two teen heart throbs makeup.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess they wanted to create a sort of
Speaker 3: a scene. It's why it's a scene. It's like, oh,
Speaker 3: there's a Sean and Pang are going to kis the episode?
Speaker 4: We can use this in the promos true.
Speaker 1: Sean is officially joined to Panga to film a couple
Speaker 1: scene in front of the fire place. Topanga tells incoming
Speaker 1: students they can build lifelong friendships or maybe more.
Speaker 4: Than looks at Sean with a smile. He puts an
Speaker 4: arm around her and nods, that's right. Schnoo comes.
Speaker 1: He recalls a fake story of the night they met
Speaker 1: at the newly remodeled student union, paid for by missus
Speaker 1: Stanley Kandleman class. Corey is admiring their performance, standing with
Speaker 1: the director something to look great together. The director agrees
Speaker 1: they really do, he says. Corey clarifies, I just mean
Speaker 1: they do. I don't mean they really do.
Speaker 3: Which is enough done?
Speaker 1: Like that's it, that's it to Panga and Sean wrap
Speaker 1: it up, talking about their lifelong mates at Penbrook, and
Speaker 1: Corey claps his hand together and to film. But the
Speaker 1: director has a better idea. He wants Topanga and Sean
Speaker 1: to kiss. Corey adamantly shouts no, don't, and we Sean and.
Speaker 2: Tapanga do it with that, with nothing, with nothing, with
Speaker 2: no hesitation. They both turn to each other like they've
Speaker 2: wanted to do this since the playground.
Speaker 3: Let's go.
Speaker 1: Let's go, because if it would be so natural for us,
Speaker 1: as just regular college students to suddenly be yelled at
Speaker 1: about on camera kiss that person and just being like, is.
Speaker 4: What I do?
Speaker 2: Okay, there you go. I'm going to make out with
Speaker 2: my my best my my fiance's best friend because someone
Speaker 2: else told me to.
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess that's the way they thought of actors,
Speaker 3: that's the way thought of us. They literally were like,
Speaker 3: they don't care, they'll do anything, do it, do anything,
Speaker 3: take your shirt off, guts her.
Speaker 2: No, somebody older than you, with powder, with power told
Speaker 2: you to do that, so go get that.
Speaker 3: So in their fictional imagination, like in their fictional world,
Speaker 3: that's what college kids will do. They'll just somebody will
Speaker 3: tell them, director should tell them what to do, and
Speaker 3: they'll just do it. That's that's actually kind of disturbing
Speaker 3: to think about it. That the level of reality that
Speaker 3: this fiction requires has a logic buy in that is
Speaker 3: that you an older person in power should just be
Speaker 3: able to tell people to make out and they just
Speaker 3: do it, and.
Speaker 1: They just do the no question way it should tell
Speaker 1: them to do anything. If that person, whatever it is,
Speaker 1: just just do it.
Speaker 3: Well we did. I mean that's what we did every week.
Speaker 1: Actually, the director and gives them, instructs them to give
Speaker 1: out more heat. They're in love, so to Panga and
Speaker 1: Sean really start making out. Corey's watching on in pure terror,
Speaker 1: less heat, lesser tongue.
Speaker 3: Though we aren't we aren't open, we're not. We're just
Speaker 3: kind of like, well.
Speaker 2: Both of you are doing two different things.
Speaker 10: Your mouth is open, but mine is yes, and then
Speaker 10: you close your mouth and then you kind of open
Speaker 10: your and I was like, one of you is doing
Speaker 10: this also the others doing the marengue.
Speaker 2: You are just doing two different dances at the same time.
Speaker 3: It's weird. The whole point of the episode is that
Speaker 3: we have chemistry and we kiss and we couldn't do it.
Speaker 4: We would both have too big of lips. Is that
Speaker 4: what it is?
Speaker 1: You can't take pillow mouths? Were like, I'm supposed to
Speaker 1: be the pillow princess. What are you doing?
Speaker 2: It was really strange to watch, and not just because
Speaker 2: I know you so well, just because it was like
Speaker 2: it was like neither of you had ever.
Speaker 4: Ever kid before.
Speaker 2: For both of us, so weird.
Speaker 3: I watched this. I watched this with my friend Sean,
Speaker 3: who I've met up with because I'm out of town
Speaker 3: and he hasn't. He's never watched the show, but he
Speaker 3: was on set for a lot of episodes, especially in
Speaker 3: this period because he lived in la and was one
Speaker 3: of college and would come all the time. It was
Speaker 3: so funny to watch his reaction to watching this episode.
Speaker 3: I mean, he has so many cops, but one of
Speaker 3: them was like, man, are like women obsessed with lip filler?
Speaker 3: Because of Danielle's lips like they're just He's like, I
Speaker 3: mean that's intense, Like this is did she start this trend?
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, you're right, it's like they're just giant,
Speaker 3: they're beautiful.
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, it's a really fair day.
Speaker 3: People.
Speaker 1: Still nobody's ever I think people know that I don't
Speaker 1: have lip filler, because.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my entire life.
Speaker 1: But it was literally the very first thing my grandfather
Speaker 1: ever said about me on the day I was born.
Speaker 4: I was a newborn.
Speaker 1: Baby, and he went, oh my god, look at that mouth.
Speaker 1: It was like literally from the moment I was born.
Speaker 1: I was just like whoop.
Speaker 4: So yeah.
Speaker 1: So Corey frantically grabs a megaphone, runs into the shot
Speaker 1: and yells cut cut.
Speaker 4: Also tell Sean. I said, thank you. That's very sweet.
Speaker 4: He instructs Sean.
Speaker 1: To back away from the girlfriend, and then there is
Speaker 1: a tense commercial break and we are still at the
Speaker 1: student union.
Speaker 4: We're right where we left off.
Speaker 2: Corey girlfriend, by the way, girlfriend not fiance, which is strange.
Speaker 1: That's what I said. I said that out loud when
Speaker 1: I watched it. Forgot to make the note, but I
Speaker 1: said it. I was like, actually your fiance.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, you're engaged. That's right, he says, back away
Speaker 2: from the girlfriend, which is weird.
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe they were they shout out of order.
Speaker 1: No, how could they have been, because later, okay, weird,
Speaker 1: Corey is still shouting into the megaphone despite being a
Speaker 1: few feet away from Tapega and Sean.
Speaker 4: What was that? Sean says he was directed to do it.
Speaker 3: I'm just doing my job, man, I'm a good actor.
Speaker 3: You got it, you got it.
Speaker 4: Cory asks a logical question, if he.
Speaker 1: Told you to put a knife through my heart, would
Speaker 1: you do it? Sean thinks about it. It depends would
Speaker 1: you be yelling in my ear through a bullhorn at
Speaker 1: the time. Sean assures him that the kiss meant nothing,
Speaker 1: and to Panga agrees, begging Cory not.
Speaker 4: To go crazy over this.
Speaker 1: Oh no, not you and you're weirdo beliefs again.
Speaker 3: I wonder, I have no idea, but like, there was
Speaker 3: a vibe in acting classes where people were supposed to
Speaker 3: kiss if a scene like I remember, there was pressure
Speaker 3: to kiss. It was sort of like, yeah, this is
Speaker 3: part of your what do you mean? I wonder if
Speaker 3: that's yeah, I mean, I wonder if that's still a
Speaker 3: pressure that actors in acting class field, Like obviously I think.
Speaker 2: The intimacy thing has become more talked about on sets
Speaker 2: with intimacy coordinators, and also so it's in the zeitgeys
Speaker 2: enough now where I think probably even in acting classes
Speaker 2: they're being more careful with random touching and intimacy as.
Speaker 1: I feel like it would have to be that there's
Speaker 1: there should be. I would hope fewer acting instructors who
Speaker 1: are comfortable saying, oh, no, if a scene calls for it,
Speaker 1: you have to do it. And then it's left up
Speaker 1: to the actors to say are you comfortable with kissing?
Speaker 1: And if the person says no, okay, how can we
Speaker 1: how can we fake it for Let's figure this out,
Speaker 1: let's work something out, and if both people are say yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm comfortable with it, then great, then go ahead and
Speaker 1: do it.
Speaker 3: But you love to hear from acting teachers. Actually, if
Speaker 3: anybody's in acting class or knows an acting teacher or
Speaker 3: is an acting teacher, I'd love to hear how you
Speaker 3: deal with it right now, because it's somebody that was
Speaker 3: just I haven't thought about cause I've been in an
Speaker 3: acting class, but like it was part of the culture
Speaker 3: of acting for sure. Like it was like if you
Speaker 3: go to acting class and you have to do a
Speaker 3: make up sne and you do it, and like why
Speaker 3: right now? I would be like, really do we have to?
Speaker 3: Like is it so interesting?
Speaker 1: Corey clenches his fists intensely walks away, repeating please don't
Speaker 1: go crazy over this, please, And then we're in Corey
Speaker 1: and Shawn's dorm. Corey is replaying Sean and Tapanga's awful
Speaker 1: kiss over and over again on his TV. He sees, oh,
Speaker 1: that's right, kiss him again, you little Oh you hurt
Speaker 1: me so bad? And you my best friend, Jigglow homewrecker.
Speaker 1: Why don't you have take her back to your tornado
Speaker 1: infested trailer park.
Speaker 3: I cannot believe how much we are in the set
Speaker 3: because I never remember being in the set. I don't
Speaker 3: remember anything about this set. I remember the studio union,
Speaker 3: but like this dorm room, I'm like what And even
Speaker 3: memory when I was like, oh yeah, Corey gets sound
Speaker 3: on his knees and he rips his shirt in my
Speaker 3: memory was in the boy's bedroom, right, But where was
Speaker 3: the set? Literally? I can't remember it down the so
Speaker 3: audience is here, you're facing the audience you're facing the audience.
Speaker 2: To the left.
Speaker 7: It was.
Speaker 3: It was the same side as the audience.
Speaker 2: I just have no I remember this because this is
Speaker 2: the one we light on fire with your chopping up
Speaker 2: the dorm room. I remember that because I.
Speaker 3: Remember that you just said things in a different language.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about, likes the I
Speaker 1: do remember the scene.
Speaker 2: I pick up Corey and I'm not he knocks the
Speaker 2: candles over and no idea.
Speaker 3: Then the fire department breaks in, and I don't remember
Speaker 3: being in the set, and like the fact that we
Speaker 3: have seeing myself.
Speaker 2: Really, Yes, this is where they live. This is where
Speaker 2: you where Sewn and Corey live until they get married.
Speaker 1: Is this where the prom set used to be? The
Speaker 1: hotel room? Do you remember where the hotel remember that?
Speaker 2: I remember that one at all.
Speaker 3: I thought that was I thought the audience was facing
Speaker 3: that set.
Speaker 1: No, I think it's I think it's exactly where Will's
Speaker 1: talking about. If you're looking at the audience to the right,
Speaker 1: Oh did.
Speaker 3: You say to that to the left.
Speaker 2: If you're looking at the audience, it was down to the.
Speaker 4: Left where that's where your hallway was.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was on the No, the hallway was right
Speaker 2: on the same side as when the audience is looking
Speaker 2: straight ahead. The hallway was to their left looking straight ahead.
Speaker 3: It was the first you're basically looking at the apartment
Speaker 3: and the kitchen when the kitchen was still around. But
Speaker 3: there's no living room anymore, right this season, we don't
Speaker 3: have any living room.
Speaker 1: Oh, so it took the So the hallway took the hallway,
Speaker 1: and the apartment took the place of the living room.
Speaker 4: Basically, yes, it was okay, I don't remember that.
Speaker 1: And then he screams in agony and falls to his knees.
Speaker 1: He rips his white tank top apart and shouts stop banger.
Speaker 2: Looking like in a DNIS can't like laugh at the joke.
Speaker 3: They end up cheering for Ben's body because shade almost
Speaker 3: like wrong, Like it's like Corey shouldn't be this the
Speaker 3: good looking like this is it doesn't really fit Corey
Speaker 3: to be this buff.
Speaker 2: You know, we know why Tipanga likes him. We got
Speaker 2: me finally figured out one of the answers.
Speaker 1: This is honestly one of arguably one of the most
Speaker 1: used gifts ever.
Speaker 4: This You will see this everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: It's also a great reminder for everyone how buff Ben
Speaker 1: was he's just people work and.
Speaker 4: The inmates wood.
Speaker 1: A neighbor yells at Corey to shut up, and Corey
Speaker 1: yells back, you shut up, and he goes back and
Speaker 1: forth with the neighbor until I start going at it
Speaker 1: intensifying but with the goal of getting each other to
Speaker 1: shut up. Eventually, Corey yells to come and get a
Speaker 1: piece of him, and then his door gets kicked down
Speaker 1: and an extremely buff man is standing in the doorway.
Speaker 1: He's also, I don't know, thirty five years old.
Speaker 3: Maybe yeah, yeah, he's up there.
Speaker 1: He's giving Cory a death glare. Corey's tone quickly changes hello,
Speaker 1: which was such a ben. He such a ben read
Speaker 1: for Hello, and I love it. And then we're back
Speaker 1: in the apartment. Eric, Jack, and Rachel are sitting together
Speaker 1: eating a formal breakfast. The boys are acting more sophisticated
Speaker 1: than normal, and Rachel is noticing the difference. Eric politely
Speaker 1: offers Rachel another splash of tomato, but she declines she
Speaker 1: needs to leave for class, and as soon as she stands,
Speaker 1: the guy's rush to clean up her plates.
Speaker 3: And then this is the second episode. Now where I went?
Speaker 3: Did I miss something?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 3: What set this up? I remember I had this problem with
Speaker 3: this last episode. Oh, we're in a we're like mid
Speaker 3: conflict already, Like they've already decided to do something that
Speaker 3: never was set up. It's like it's like they just
Speaker 3: decided to skip to the second part of the story.
Speaker 3: It's it's so weird. I was like, we did I
Speaker 3: miss it?
Speaker 2: Why now, all of a sudden, do we need.
Speaker 1: To episode All of a sudden, you pick, you decide
Speaker 1: that women need manners in order to live with you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why it should have been precipitated by just
Speaker 3: one little moment, you know, where she makes a calm.
Speaker 3: I don't, but I guess I would have required a
Speaker 3: whole scene. Like it's weird, it's it's it's it's it's
Speaker 3: like they don't care. It's like the writers were like, well,
Speaker 3: we want to get this situation. Do we need to explain? Now,
Speaker 3: let's just do something.
Speaker 2: They'll get there. They'll get there, And that's that's how
Speaker 2: it kind of comes off. It's bad.
Speaker 1: She tries to stop them, but they insist Jack's class
Speaker 1: doesn't start for another hour, and Eric says his class
Speaker 1: is probably over by now.
Speaker 4: I love the way you say that. Will It was
Speaker 4: so funny where you just drive right there done.
Speaker 1: Eric even meticulously cleans the bright blue tablecloth with a
Speaker 1: table crumb sweeper.
Speaker 3: Because those things are like, yeah, it was the perfect
Speaker 3: touch her. Do you think it was written? Do you
Speaker 3: think it was like.
Speaker 2: A I was probably written. I imagine I did not
Speaker 2: go to props and say can I get a table
Speaker 2: crumb sweeper?
Speaker 3: Such a nice touch. It's like a perfect way to
Speaker 3: be like, I'm fancy, you know. It's like if you
Speaker 3: have one of those, you are you are killing it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's like and the way you do it so pervios,
Speaker 3: so good.
Speaker 1: Rachel says that if this is for her benefit, it
Speaker 1: is unnecessary.
Speaker 4: Both of them scoff. It has nothing to do with her.
Speaker 4: They're doing this for themselves.
Speaker 1: They change out the tablecloth instead of vasive flowers on
Speaker 1: the island. Rachel awkwardly tells them she's going to class,
Speaker 1: and the boys jump to help. Eric hanser a lunch bag.
Speaker 1: Jack tells her to make friends. Jack opens the door
Speaker 1: for her as she leaves, and as soon as she's
Speaker 1: out the door, Eric lets out a loud belch.
Speaker 3: I've been holding it in.
Speaker 4: For three weeks.
Speaker 2: I can see myself with my like my lips close.
Speaker 2: I'm just swallowing you, right, I can see myself doing.
Speaker 1: It yet, so funny Jack size, she's killing us with
Speaker 1: this cleaning and consideration.
Speaker 4: Eric agrees manners blow.
Speaker 1: They are replacing the table sophistication with an array of
Speaker 1: snacks like cheeseballs and donuts.
Speaker 11: Which, by the way, even the donuts are on like
Speaker 11: a cake plate. Why didn't they just have to be
Speaker 11: like even that is just sophisticated, Like why didn't you
Speaker 11: just like open a drawer and pull out a half
Speaker 11: eaten donut like a beautiful cake.
Speaker 4: Beautifully displayed on a cake plate. It's weird anyway.
Speaker 1: Eric opens a cart and the milk and drinks straight
Speaker 1: from it. We know what women expact. I lived with
Speaker 1: my mother for eighteen years. Eric tosses the flowers out
Speaker 1: of the vase.
Speaker 2: I lived this, so I remember the first time I
Speaker 2: did this. Really Yeah, during the run through, I just
Speaker 2: tossed the flowers and I drink from the vase and
Speaker 2: they had that blue dye stuff in it that like
Speaker 2: keeps flowers alive, and so Glazer came up. He's like,
Speaker 2: I didn't know you're gonna do it, is like I
Speaker 2: didn't know I was gonna do anything, like it'll be
Speaker 2: just water from now. And I was like, so I
Speaker 2: like drank like the poison.
Speaker 4: My flower the first will because.
Speaker 2: I didn't even think about it.
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, yeah, that's.
Speaker 4: Where you have a glass eye.
Speaker 2: No I had before that. It could have caused my
Speaker 2: anxiety though, you never know. This could have been stuff
Speaker 2: flower food anxiety. It's flower food connection. Yeah, ffa, it's big.
Speaker 1: Jack says they can never show their real selves if
Speaker 1: they want Rachel to stay there. Eric simply responds, I
Speaker 1: love your mother.
Speaker 3: I don't get the stake it either, don't get And
Speaker 3: then there's a callback joke later right about about the grandma. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you say something later that I was to the mom joke.
Speaker 4: Jack says, I lived with Nana Boo boo once.
Speaker 3: Now that's a woman.
Speaker 2: Now that's a woman. I don't I don't get it.
Speaker 2: I think it's just supposed to be like they're now
Speaker 2: doing things. Remember the last episode, it was Eric coming
Speaker 2: up like, dude, you got to try these cheeseballs. I
Speaker 2: think it's just he's doing they're now just throwing random stuff.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, but we have there is a whole like
Speaker 3: mom thing, like you know, basically you want her to be.
Speaker 3: You say mommy a couple times in this episode.
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, you said, you said the I
Speaker 1: lived with my mommy for eighteen years.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then she says other than your mother's.
Speaker 3: Right, and then you say yes mom when she yells
Speaker 3: at you.
Speaker 2: After you said yes mommy, yeah or whatever.
Speaker 3: Yes. So I thought maybe I was missing like some
Speaker 3: setup from this. Don't you remember, No, we did this.
Speaker 3: This was for her answer.
Speaker 2: The second you start dating, the woman becomes the mom.
Speaker 3: Yeah. We did this with Tpanga and it was a big.
Speaker 4: By their mothers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh god.
Speaker 1: Jack ignores the comment and reminds Eric that Rachel isn't
Speaker 1: there anymore. What are they still doing with their pants on?
Speaker 1: They both fall back onto the couch and unzip their
Speaker 1: pants with relief.
Speaker 3: That is another big yeah, I like, but I rip
Speaker 3: them off because you already had done an episode where
Speaker 3: we're like my pants, which is which was really very funny.
Speaker 3: I was waiting for it to happen again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was funny, and it's like an Eric thing,
Speaker 2: but just a bunch of dudes like we're alone.
Speaker 3: Now, let's take off our pants. I find that range.
Speaker 4: I just I don't think that's a real thing.
Speaker 3: I don't know. A bunch of dudes, audience, let's take
Speaker 3: it off and let's just let's just air it out.
Speaker 3: Let's air it out.
Speaker 2: What happens.
Speaker 4: Let's just we air it out out. Come on class,
Speaker 4: Why it's over here?
Speaker 3: You're talking about somebody. This is literally probably the last
Speaker 3: time I wore shorts was on this episode, because and
Speaker 3: God right, or cover them up like those Those legs
Speaker 3: should never see the light a day.
Speaker 4: I disagree with you. You have very nice legs.
Speaker 3: No, I don't know. I don't you have ma hobbit feet.
Speaker 4: No one's talking about your hobbits. It's about your feet.
Speaker 3: I know you're telling the truth. Nice.
Speaker 1: Nice, you've got hobbit feet, very nice legs to walk
Speaker 1: to shirts.
Speaker 3: I could wear shorts at the beach with with my boots.
Speaker 2: You're good, got your mother.
Speaker 4: And then we're back in Corey and Sean's dorm.
Speaker 1: The muscly neighbor is now holding Corey and they are
Speaker 1: both crying watching the kiss footage. Corey pauses the TV
Speaker 1: tramp man. The neighbor agrees through his tears, I hear you, brother, Corey.
Speaker 1: Says he never saw it coming. His new friend, Isaac
Speaker 1: assures Corey that he can't blame himself. The same thing
Speaker 1: happened to him once. Corey again shouts Stopanga in response,
Speaker 1: and Isaac follows his lead by shouting fred. Corey's eyes
Speaker 1: go wide as he notices Isaac's arm around his shoulder
Speaker 1: and some panic panic, but the audience the inmates seem
Speaker 1: to find it very funny at the time, and then
Speaker 1: in the student union we see Matt Foster and his
Speaker 1: green hat sitting in the back playing chess while students
Speaker 1: bustle about. Sean is asleep on one of the couches.
Speaker 1: Tapanga enters and tells him to wake up. Sean sits up,
Speaker 1: screaming no clown, no.
Speaker 3: Again it.
Speaker 1: Tepenga takes a seat and asks if he really slept
Speaker 1: on the couch. Sean nods, I had to. He installed
Speaker 1: a dead bolt. She says Corey's been avoiding her too.
Speaker 1: They're both now under Shawn's comforter, and thinks he's probably
Speaker 1: been letting it eat at him all night. He's probably
Speaker 1: out of control at this point. Then, on cue a
Speaker 1: very calm, Corey enters the room with his head held high.
Speaker 1: He addresses the two, It's probably no surprise to you
Speaker 1: that I've had a long, hard night and a lot
Speaker 1: of time to think. I know you too are thinking
Speaker 1: that the crazy little man would dwell and stew and
Speaker 1: blow this horribly out of proportion. But I've worked through it.
Speaker 1: I'm fine, and i am a happy, healthy Corey. He
Speaker 1: then notices their positions on the couch under the covers.
Speaker 3: What's this that turn of just god, it's just one thing.
Speaker 3: What's this?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I was I were round out like
Speaker 2: five times. It's just it's this hole walking in in
Speaker 2: him like all primate, proper, like I've been fine, and
Speaker 2: then that turns. It's so good.
Speaker 4: It is so good, so good.
Speaker 2: Oh god, I love it.
Speaker 3: Joe the barely holding it together, jilted lover.
Speaker 9: It's so perfect and like it's so good.
Speaker 3: I mean the way the way he plays it is
Speaker 3: to play against the emotions, right, like he's just just
Speaker 3: keeping it all together. So he's just going to it's
Speaker 3: so good. Turn What this off?
Speaker 1: This so good Tapega tries to explain, but Corey snatches
Speaker 1: the comforter right off them to Pang is fully dressed,
Speaker 1: but Sean is wearing a Seattle Wrestling T shirt.
Speaker 4: You're into wrestling. I mean you notice that I can
Speaker 4: see that Seattle Wrestling. Well, that's what we always said.
Speaker 4: He's the one wh would always sayl it. I'm not
Speaker 4: into wrestling, but Corey Corey was and his underwear.
Speaker 1: Corey gasps underpants. Sean says he always sleeps like this,
Speaker 1: but Corey rages on underpants. Corey knows exactly how they're
Speaker 1: going to handle this. It's very clear that the two
Speaker 1: of you have had a lot of hidden sexual tension
Speaker 1: for the last fifteen years.
Speaker 4: Sean shakes his head. No, we haven't.
Speaker 1: Corey yells, I am speaking now. There is one solution
Speaker 1: to this, and one solution only, and then channeling old Topanga,
Speaker 1: she growls. Knowing where this is going, Corey demands I
Speaker 1: want you to go out.
Speaker 4: On a date. Sean and Tapega are flabbergasted, but Corey
Speaker 4: insists he believes there are feelings.
Speaker 1: Between them, and the tape backs him up. He should know,
Speaker 1: he watched it five hundred and twelve times. Corey tells them,
Speaker 1: when you kissed, you felt something. You both did.
Speaker 4: Sean says they are not going on a date.
Speaker 1: Corey is not backing down. If they don't go on
Speaker 1: a date, it's gonna haunt all of them for the
Speaker 1: rest of their lives. Tapega responds through gritted teeth, Why
Speaker 1: does everything have to haunt us for the rest of
Speaker 1: our lives?
Speaker 4: Corey yells back underpants.
Speaker 1: Sean turns to Topanga and goes through the motions, will
Speaker 1: you go on a date with me? Tapega crosses her
Speaker 1: arms and reluctantly says yes. Corey is falsely vindicated.
Speaker 4: I knew it.
Speaker 3: None of us makes any sense. It is a good scene,
Speaker 3: it's a great scene, but it.
Speaker 2: Doesn't the story doesn't make any sense. Again, I could
Speaker 2: watch Ben do this yew five thousand episodes and.
Speaker 4: To watch Sean and Tapega have to cater to him.
Speaker 4: It's in They're always is.
Speaker 3: It's awesome.
Speaker 1: So then we're into Pega and Angela's dorm. Angela is
Speaker 1: lying on her bed doing homework when there was a
Speaker 1: knock at the door.
Speaker 4: It's Corey.
Speaker 1: He asks what she's studying. Angela responds, white history. You
Speaker 1: know you people contributed quite a bit.
Speaker 4: To this country. Cory smiles and says, thanks.
Speaker 1: Just it's funny though Corey closes her book, I've kept
Speaker 1: you in the dark about this because even though you
Speaker 1: and Sean broke up, I know how much you still
Speaker 1: care about him, and you know how much I care
Speaker 1: about that betraying which of a girl.
Speaker 4: Angela were broken up? By the way, really, there's.
Speaker 2: Angela in all this, and I was doing the same things, like.
Speaker 3: Well, that's right, we were broken up, and I don't remember,
Speaker 3: like why, I've already lost.
Speaker 1: So it's so weird to me that there has not
Speaker 1: been since that first episode where disc everard Angela's feelings
Speaker 1: about Seawan, that Sean has truly acted as though Angela
Speaker 1: meant nothing to him and that relationship meant nothing. He's
Speaker 1: just every episode is just like living my best life.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 3: It's just in such a weird space, like I'm in
Speaker 3: weird space performance wise, but as a character too. I
Speaker 3: don't understand this season at all. It's like, I'm with
Speaker 3: him there, You're a normal bro all of a sudden.
Speaker 2: It's just it's I think it's the haircut.
Speaker 3: I think the second I lost the floppy middle party,
Speaker 3: they could they were like, who is this person?
Speaker 4: Who is this guy?
Speaker 3: Who is this He's done with it's so weird. It's
Speaker 3: like I'm Samson. I've just lost all my shondness. It's
Speaker 3: so I'm so boring, Like every time I open my mouth,
Speaker 3: I'm like, who cares?
Speaker 2: I also have no recollection, and I mean none of
Speaker 2: How Sean and Angela.
Speaker 3: Get back neither, I don't know. I don't remember none
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 1: Ye, Angela begs him to get to the point. Corey
Speaker 1: blurts out Shawn and de Banger are on a date.
Speaker 1: Angela is confused they would never do that, but Corey
Speaker 1: tells her it's true. Angela wonders why they do that,
Speaker 1: and Corey reveals because I made the reservation. She tries
Speaker 1: to ask why, but Corey cuts her off, and I
Speaker 1: paid for it. She asks why again, and Corey adds.
Speaker 4: I ordered the souffle in advance.
Speaker 1: Angela still doesn't get why, so Corey explains, because you
Speaker 1: gotta do that kind of thing, Angela. Angela again asks
Speaker 1: why one last time, and Corey has had enough. I
Speaker 1: don't know, call the restaurant. The love of my life
Speaker 1: is out with my best friend and you want to
Speaker 1: discuss dessert policy.
Speaker 4: Geez, you're annoyed.
Speaker 3: He's so good at this episode so funny.
Speaker 4: It's always my favorite.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite things when someone isn't being very
Speaker 1: annoying and they aren't getting it and then they think
Speaker 1: the other person's being annoying.
Speaker 4: I find that so funny every time, Like, I.
Speaker 2: Thought they missed a joke too. It should have been
Speaker 2: the person I love more than anything in the world
Speaker 2: is out with my fiance, right is exactly.
Speaker 3: So. So I'm trying to think, like, was the first
Speaker 3: episode where this Corey merged? There was one where he
Speaker 3: There was the episode I think it was season three
Speaker 3: where he like gets into real estate he's looking for
Speaker 3: an apartment for Turner. Yes, was that the first one
Speaker 3: that like fussy overthinking Corey? Because this really isn't the
Speaker 3: Corey from season one. Like season one, Corey was like
Speaker 3: fucking get overconfident, like he's going to talk his way
Speaker 3: out of every situation, the you know nothing, and yet
Speaker 3: this Cory emerges and is now kind of the Corey. Right,
Speaker 3: it's like our favorite Corey, but it's very different. It's
Speaker 3: so different, and it's worsely because Ben could play this
Speaker 3: so well and it's very funny.
Speaker 2: Well, this is now they're writing to who we are now,
Speaker 2: I mean, Eric, isn't I just know you're just you're
Speaker 2: faring interesting intellectual. I think they're starting to make right
Speaker 2: more of an intellectual.
Speaker 3: You're the one who just or whoever youre talking about. Yes,
Speaker 3: you're right.
Speaker 9: I was so boring in real life and they just
Speaker 9: started to write to it.
Speaker 3: I said intellectual, you said boring, snobby pretends just and boring. Yeah, but.
Speaker 2: Way is what it is.
Speaker 1: Angela asks if this is still about the kiss, and
Speaker 1: Corey can't believe she knows about it. That must mean
Speaker 1: it meant something to her, he asks, Angela, and all
Speaker 1: that time you were with Sean, did he ever call
Speaker 1: out the name Topanga? Angela says no, but he called
Speaker 1: out the name Corey. Corey's eyes light up. In what context?
Speaker 1: She explains, in the context of how stupid you are?
Speaker 1: Angela reminds him that it was for a movie, a
Speaker 1: very important features.
Speaker 4: Anderson, we're talking about this. It's not this is not
Speaker 4: just over submit this.
Speaker 1: Angela reminds him that it was for a movie. They
Speaker 1: were pretending. Corey argues, they weren't pretending. I know when
Speaker 1: Topanga pretends I've been there, wow, not even.
Speaker 2: Having sex and already faking you already pretended that is
Speaker 2: that possible?
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 1: Angela assures him there's nothing to worry about. They'll spend
Speaker 1: the whole day talking about him and have a terrible time.
Speaker 4: Corey is relieved to hear this.
Speaker 1: He thanks Angela for the reassurance and tells her she's
Speaker 1: just really great to talk to. Then we hear Tapega
Speaker 1: giggling in the hallway. You're so funny, Sean, He responds, oh, stop,
Speaker 1: while giggling along. Corey turns to Angela.
Speaker 4: You moron.
Speaker 1: He bolts towards the door and peeks out. We see
Speaker 1: Sean opening the door to the boy's dorm room. He
Speaker 1: peers inside. Corey isn't there, so he tells Tapega they
Speaker 1: should go in. Corey is listening from across the hall
Speaker 1: when Topega says we should put a rubber band on
Speaker 1: the door just in case he comes back. Sean does
Speaker 1: and follows Topanga inside. Corey sneaks over to listen. In
Speaker 1: he hears Sean admit, this is the greatest night I've
Speaker 1: had in a long time, and to realize how we
Speaker 1: feel about each other after all these years. Topanga adds,
Speaker 1: we should thank Corey and Sean says, I'm not sure
Speaker 1: we should be doing this. After all, he's my best friend.
Speaker 1: Tapanga assures him he's my fiance and I'm fine with it.
Speaker 1: Corey is devastated at what he's hearing, but inside we
Speaker 1: see that Sean and Tapanga are reading from scripts. Sean continues,
Speaker 1: you're right, we can't fight what we've been fighting for
Speaker 1: fifteen years. Topanga reads, I'm just not strong enough anymore.
Speaker 1: Sean rattles off compliments about Topanga's skin, hair, face, and
Speaker 1: long long legs, but then he accidentally drops the pages
Speaker 1: of a script and he can't figure out where he
Speaker 1: left off. Tapega wonders what he likes about her eyes,
Speaker 1: and he stumbles, yes, this is the number of Corey's
Speaker 1: face is frozen into a frown. Outside the door, Sean
Speaker 1: ditches the script. How do you like what I'm doing
Speaker 1: to you right now? He hits a paddleball for sound effects,
Speaker 1: and she grins.
Speaker 3: Ooh to a like pankakey. Do you remember doing this, Daniel, No,
Speaker 3: I kind of do. Like I was. I was watching.
Speaker 3: They just gave us a bunch of objects, and I
Speaker 3: remember you found the one that recorded whatever you said okay,
Speaker 3: you know the one that says, oh, Sean. We discovered
Speaker 3: that during rehearsal. I remember finding that because they just
Speaker 3: had a bunch of things and they were like play
Speaker 3: with them.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: It was McCracken just like, go do something. It's still
Speaker 3: not good.
Speaker 4: We tried. McCracken did his very best.
Speaker 3: Of that magic. If Will had been in there, imagine
Speaker 3: you could do with the move thing?
Speaker 2: Are they the whole thing is they're just supposed to
Speaker 2: be pranking Corey?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: That's just point.
Speaker 4: What's the point of this?
Speaker 2: I don't get the point.
Speaker 1: If we really let's like, let's get to the bottom
Speaker 1: of it. If we really wanted we agreed to go
Speaker 1: on the date because we knew Corey wasn't gonna let
Speaker 1: up unless we did. Why didn't we then come home
Speaker 1: from the date and say, Corey, we talked about you
Speaker 1: all night, we didn't have a good time, we missed you.
Speaker 4: We did what you asked us to know how much
Speaker 4: you love this.
Speaker 1: Why isn't that the solution? Instead we go to dinner
Speaker 1: and we go you know what would be hilarious if
Speaker 1: we ramp this up again. Even though in the last
Speaker 1: scene when he begged us to go on a date.
Speaker 1: We were like, I can't believe you're making us do this.
Speaker 1: Now we're like, okay, if he's going to make us
Speaker 1: do it, let's have fun with it. Let me write
Speaker 1: a script.
Speaker 4: Then we'll do this.
Speaker 1: He'll be listening, we'll know it, and then he'll think
Speaker 1: it's hilarious when we throw open the door and say surprise.
Speaker 2: I don't get it. Well, do you remember the action?
Speaker 2: Do you remember the first draft? Because the first draft
Speaker 2: was he walks in and you guys are having sex.
Speaker 2: Do you not remember that you're reading that?
Speaker 3: I am.
Speaker 2: I'm totally.
Speaker 3: Kiss I just know what what Will would have done.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to imagine Will with those objects, in all
Speaker 3: the sounds he would have made, It would have been great.
Speaker 3: I don't know. We're just so such an average.
Speaker 4: It's such a boring scene.
Speaker 2: You've got two people who have checked out of the
Speaker 2: show carrying the scene.
Speaker 4: Tamenga stands up to join in on the phone. How
Speaker 4: do you like what I'm doing to you?
Speaker 1: She turns a toy over and it blasts a cow's moo.
Speaker 1: Sean pretends to beg for more as they just start
Speaker 1: to mess around with various loud objects around the room,
Speaker 1: like a cow bell. Why do you guys have these
Speaker 1: things in your room? What is what's going on with
Speaker 1: this joke? They slowly sneak up to the door and
Speaker 1: on the other side, Corey sadly walks away in defeat.
Speaker 1: So when to Panga and Sean open the door and
Speaker 1: shouts surprise. They're confused to see he's disappeared. And we
Speaker 1: know that he had been there because we assume we
Speaker 1: know him so well that there's no chance he just
Speaker 1: wasn't actually there. So I actually say, where'd he go? Ye,
Speaker 1: even though there's no way we would have known whether
Speaker 1: or not he was there.
Speaker 3: Ever, couldn't have gotten a text from Angela because text
Speaker 3: and didn't exist.
Speaker 2: Nope.
Speaker 4: Fact weird, thought, very weird.
Speaker 1: At the boys apartment, the guys have prepared another formal
Speaker 1: meal for Rachel, still on their best behavior for her,
Speaker 1: but she looks bored at the performance. Jack takes the
Speaker 1: conversation to a new level he learned from a Martha
Speaker 1: Stewart episode on how to freshen up their potpourris. Eric exclaims, oh, yes, I.
Speaker 4: Saw that one.
Speaker 1: Eric asks Rachel how her day was, and she frowns,
Speaker 1: I had lunch with a friend. We put our elbows
Speaker 1: on the table and ate with our fingers.
Speaker 4: She wonders, you don't think I know what you're doing.
Speaker 4: You actually think that I think you live like this.
Speaker 4: Eric and Jack are startled.
Speaker 1: She continues, you're just treating me differently because I'm a woman.
Speaker 1: The boys scoff and Jack argues, shows you how much
Speaker 1: you know? You think you're the first woman we've ever
Speaker 1: lived with. Rachel confidently nods, besides your mother's yes. Eric
Speaker 1: asks his friend if that's an your account. Jack admits,
Speaker 1: I stayed with Nana Booba once.
Speaker 4: Now there's a woman that.
Speaker 3: We've said Nana booboo before on the show, right, and
Speaker 3: we say it again Cory's and we say it was Cory. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he does that that when the when the wedding. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because he goes Nana.
Speaker 4: Boo boo And you're like, no, So why doesn't would Jack.
Speaker 3: Funny st it's funny sounds?
Speaker 1: So Rachel tells them she hates this. She feels like
Speaker 1: she has to be on her best behavior. It's like
Speaker 1: she's living with her own mother. Eric's interest is piqued.
Speaker 1: Do you have a picture of your mom, no reason.
Speaker 3: Other thing. It's another mother thing, mother and kissing.
Speaker 4: Rachel has had it. I can't do this.
Speaker 1: You have to be yourself so I can be myself.
Speaker 1: Eric tells Jack they have to stick to the plan.
Speaker 1: Rachel begs them to stop with the planning and stop
Speaker 1: acting like she can't hear them.
Speaker 4: I'm clean.
Speaker 2: The joke is I want a picture of her mother
Speaker 2: to see what she's going to look like when she
Speaker 2: gets older.
Speaker 3: Right, that's the joke. It's not just do you want
Speaker 3: to make out with her mom? Yeah? I think you
Speaker 3: just want to see her hot move because marm what
Speaker 3: it is? Okay?
Speaker 2: I thought it was like I want to see I
Speaker 2: want to see how you're going to age. So do
Speaker 2: you have a picture of your mother?
Speaker 8: Maybe?
Speaker 4: But it's no matter what it's but.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's okay, all right. I was just curious what
Speaker 2: the joke was.
Speaker 1: The guys come clean. They're scared to be themselves because
Speaker 1: they're slobs. She asks, And you're afraid I can't handle it, right,
Speaker 1: Eric scoffs, you could never handle it. Rachel gets defensive
Speaker 1: because I'm a woman. Well, I can be just as
Speaker 1: big of a slob as the two of you. Eric
Speaker 1: Intensley challenges her statement, that's insane. Your read there is
Speaker 1: so funny. That's insane.
Speaker 2: That's insane, Rachel.
Speaker 3: This was the one where I was like, that's the
Speaker 3: Jim Carrey read, but he's doing extra that's funny.
Speaker 4: It was a great read too.
Speaker 3: I didn't quite like there's an easy Jim Carrey read
Speaker 3: that season four Will would have done. Right now, we're
Speaker 3: like elevated, like he's.
Speaker 4: Got You're right. So Rachel picks up a saucy meat
Speaker 4: ball and rubs it all over Eric's face.
Speaker 3: The inmates ketchup. I was like, no, this is right.
Speaker 3: There's also lots of close ups down it's it's we're pushing.
Speaker 3: But that was so you could do multiple takes, right yeah, ife, okay, but.
Speaker 2: We did it once in for like we pre shot
Speaker 2: it and then we did it. What this was live
Speaker 2: in front of the audience.
Speaker 3: I could imagine that McCracken was just staying close up
Speaker 3: in case something went wrong with the meatball. Maybe maybe
Speaker 3: you could reset and not have to I don't.
Speaker 2: Know, yeah maybe, although why why would.
Speaker 1: It be or if afterward, like say say the leader
Speaker 1: they wanted to pick up of the meatball so she's
Speaker 1: already covered in dirt. If you're super close up on him,
Speaker 1: you don't know that she's already covered in sauce.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or I'm covered in sauce or whatever. So yeah,
Speaker 2: maybe it's that. Maybe it's that. Maybe that was a pickup.
Speaker 3: Who knows, Maybe it was a pickup. Yeah, could have been,
Speaker 3: and they just pushed in.
Speaker 1: So Rachel picks up a saucy meatball and rubs it
Speaker 1: all over Eric's face. The inmates even say ew He
Speaker 1: calmly states, apparently I've got meatball on my face.
Speaker 4: Jack tells him. Martha Stewart says, A lovely blend of
Speaker 4: bleach and turpentine really clears that up. Suddenly, Rachel dumps
Speaker 4: her entire plate of spaghetti on Jack's head. The inmates
Speaker 4: love this, She.
Speaker 3: Rubs, don't care. Just don't find this funny. It's weird.
Speaker 2: It's it's a sexualized to fight, is what it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just like, what is She rubs.
Speaker 4: The tomato sauce into his hair.
Speaker 1: More hoots and hollers, and Rachel just stares at them
Speaker 1: with a smirk. Jack's eyes trying not to break yet,
Speaker 1: Eric reminds him to stick with the plan. So Rachel
Speaker 1: throws a meatball at Eric in response, but Eric still insists,
Speaker 1: no matter what happens.
Speaker 2: This next hurt so much. What every time she it
Speaker 2: was like throwing a baseball. She whipped it, and every
Speaker 2: single time it hit me right in the ear. Whoa
Speaker 2: it like right in the ear, like you were getting
Speaker 2: punched in the side of the face.
Speaker 3: It hurt.
Speaker 2: I have no idea where what kind of meatball they got,
Speaker 2: but it never broke.
Speaker 3: It was just like bricks in it. My god, every
Speaker 3: single time, just to the side of my head.
Speaker 2: Oh my, I just remember, like right, I had a
Speaker 2: visceral reaction watching and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I remember how much that hurt. It hurts so much.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Next, Rachel sticks her feet right into the bowl of
Speaker 1: meatballs and tomato sauce. My mother always says to never
Speaker 1: put your feet on the table and less they're in
Speaker 1: mare nara sauce. She then places her feet onto Eric's
Speaker 1: blative pasta and coats them thoroughly before rubbing her feet.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say it.
Speaker 9: She doesn't ever had a strong feet, you know, she
Speaker 9: just doesn't.
Speaker 4: She does She does not have hobbit feet. She's adorable feet.
Speaker 3: They should not.
Speaker 4: She rubs them all over his sweater and face. The
Speaker 4: crowd erupts.
Speaker 1: Eric admits right away, I don't like where this is going.
Speaker 1: Rachel throws more food at.
Speaker 2: Jack and at this point you can see you trying
Speaker 2: not to laugh this whole time.
Speaker 3: And it's mostly the anticipation. That's what I love. It's like,
Speaker 3: it's not the actual thing. It's always when it's about
Speaker 3: to happen. You guys are like spaghetti, like all the
Speaker 3: way down, and it was just we just couldn't hold
Speaker 3: it together.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Eric shout's new plan, and they start to throw
Speaker 1: food back at her, causing a full on food fight.
Speaker 1: They're throwing pasta and salad and Eric rubbed something into
Speaker 1: her hair. Jack dumps an entire bottle of soda onto her.
Speaker 1: They all have now broken and chaos has erupted, both
Speaker 1: on the show and on the set.
Speaker 2: I remember before we did this, I called the like
Speaker 2: paps in and a bunch of the set decks in
Speaker 2: and I was like, guys, I was on Nickelodeon for
Speaker 2: six years. I've done these a thousand times. The thing
Speaker 2: people forget is it gets ice slippers slippery.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was like, we did, is this this most slippery
Speaker 2: thing in the world, Like, well, what should we do?
Speaker 2: I was like, we've got to make every set. You've
Speaker 2: got to make every corner of every table safe. So
Speaker 2: they went around and they.
Speaker 3: Foamed all of the corners because it's you like you
Speaker 3: can't stand.
Speaker 2: I was like, I've done these before. It's gonna get bad,
Speaker 2: So like, all right, cool, so that if you go
Speaker 2: and you look, you can see like all the corners
Speaker 2: are foamed over, You're slipping around. Yeah, it's amazing how
Speaker 2: slippery it gets.
Speaker 1: Rachel dunks Jack's head into the remaining bowl of Marinara sauce,
Speaker 1: and Jack shouts pire. Rachel doesn't want to be treated
Speaker 1: differently just because she's a woman than she tells Eric
Speaker 1: to pie Jack. Eric does as he's told and slams
Speaker 1: the pie directly into Jack's face.
Speaker 4: This was a very good pie take.
Speaker 2: It was a great pie take. You can also tell
Speaker 2: that both Maitland and Matt have sauce in their eyes.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they can't.
Speaker 2: Trying to like wipe the sauce out of their eyes.
Speaker 2: And it's just like you've been maced, like you can't.
Speaker 2: And I actually even Sue was like, well, you don't
Speaker 2: have that much stuff on you, Like they were both
Speaker 2: covered and I got through a little lot, is you know,
Speaker 2: not the worst.
Speaker 1: It was much on your face because it started on
Speaker 1: your face, but she did it around your eyes and
Speaker 1: then when she rubs stuff, it was just into.
Speaker 4: Your hair, so you did.
Speaker 3: And of course in the white sweater, so so the
Speaker 3: marin aera sauce with her feet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: Eric is covered in various food items. Rachel demands, one,
Speaker 1: I get out of the shower. I expect this place clean.
Speaker 1: The boys respond in unison, yes, mommy. Rachel drags her
Speaker 1: finger across Jack's forehead and then licks the whip cream.
Speaker 4: Off of it. She admits goodbye, and then walks off,
Speaker 4: now alone. Jack can't believe it. What happened. Eric scoops
Speaker 4: and whipped cream off of Jack's forehead. I don't know,
Speaker 4: but I think we won.
Speaker 3: There you go. He did it.
Speaker 1: He did it twice once hecaped, and then the one
Speaker 1: that they actually used was the one.
Speaker 4: That he did in front of the audience. Absolutely, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: they liked the energy of it.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, then we're back in the dorm hallway.
Speaker 1: Corey drags Angela into the hallway, insisting that he hears
Speaker 1: sounds from his room, forbidden sounds. In fact, he thinks
Speaker 1: there was a cown there.
Speaker 9: So wait, hold on, So Corey left, he was sneaking
Speaker 9: and listening to us.
Speaker 1: Left left, the others came out, said surprise, don't know
Speaker 1: where he was, but then at some point to come,
Speaker 1: But he went a different way from the room.
Speaker 3: But yes, doesn't make any sense, like now and he
Speaker 3: is upset about then.
Speaker 4: No, I can't believe that's your problem with this.
Speaker 2: I mean, I also love with all the stuff that
Speaker 2: you have in your dorm room, the only thing missing
Speaker 2: is a slinky, a hula hoop. It's like, how many
Speaker 2: fifties toys you got? The paddle thing, you've got the
Speaker 2: ray gun?
Speaker 3: Like, how many toys from the fifties can you have
Speaker 3: in that room?
Speaker 1: Oh, Angela's pretty sure he's letting his imagination run wild,
Speaker 1: but Corey suggests she listened through the door and find
Speaker 1: out for herself. Angela leans in into Clare's there's nothing
Speaker 1: going on in there, Corey wines, oh no, they're nestling.
Speaker 1: Angela just opens the door and Corey shields his eyes.
Speaker 1: I don't want to see in reality, there's no one there.
Speaker 1: Angela explains that Sewan and Tpanga don't care about each other.
Speaker 1: They care about Corey. Corey tells Angela she's thinking too logically,
Speaker 1: and this defies logic. This is raw hot, unfiltered passion,
Speaker 1: and that kiss opened the gates. Angela asks him, haven't
Speaker 1: we known each other a long time? Is there any
Speaker 1: tension between us? Oh?
Speaker 4: Ben is so funny when he goes.
Speaker 1: Oh, well, there was that one time you didn't get
Speaker 1: me a gift for my birthday. I didn't say anything,
Speaker 1: but oh, it's so bad, so funny, it's so great.
Speaker 3: I'm just and so bad.
Speaker 1: Oh, Angela didn't mean that kind of tension, so Corey
Speaker 1: catches on. He exclaims never, and Angela raises an eyebrow.
Speaker 1: Tell the truth.
Speaker 4: Corey admits one time it wasn't my fault. I had
Speaker 4: a dream and you were in it. Angela asks was
Speaker 4: it a good dream?
Speaker 1: And Corey nods enthusiastically yes, but Angela reminds him it
Speaker 1: wasn't real, just like the kiss. Corey is sure they
Speaker 1: felt something, though, because you can't do that when you're
Speaker 1: just friends. So Angela decides to prove him wrong. She
Speaker 1: pushes Corey onto the bed. Cory is terrified.
Speaker 4: Oh no, it's the dream.
Speaker 3: She would have backfire. What if he was like, yeah,
Speaker 3: let's make out, let's go do it, I could have
Speaker 3: an ensourcelled kiss because they're meant for each other. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but it's also we did this.
Speaker 2: I keep saying that, but this is the same exact
Speaker 2: kissing Ricky and kissing Lauren Lauren.
Speaker 3: And kiss what is the kiss?
Speaker 2: And it didn't mean anything, and that.
Speaker 3: We literally did this exact thing already.
Speaker 1: It's so it's and it's so weird that, like Ryder said,
Speaker 1: it's because as we talked about very early on in
Speaker 1: the show, where I mentioned, like steaks, you have to
Speaker 1: have steaks, but like, what kind of stakes can you
Speaker 1: have for a kid's show this, If this were an
Speaker 1: adult show, would be sleeping with people. But because we
Speaker 1: are a family show on Friday nights, the only thing
Speaker 1: we can do is kissing. And so now they're just
Speaker 1: trying to ramp up kissing in as many possible ways
Speaker 1: as they can to keep it.
Speaker 4: I guess sexy. It's just I don't know, I don't
Speaker 4: enjoy it.
Speaker 2: It's weird. It's just weird. Yeah.
Speaker 4: She grabs his face and kisses him as the audience
Speaker 4: cheers them on. Angela pulls away. Corey is frozen.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 4: Angela asks what, and Corey responds nothing. I felt nothing.
Speaker 1: It was nothing like him into Panga because he loves
Speaker 1: Tapanga and he doesn't love Angela.
Speaker 2: He tried just real something. I'm sorry, I just realize something.
Speaker 2: I'm the only cast member, excluding Lily or Lindsay, I'm
Speaker 2: the who didn't kiss anybody else in the cast.
Speaker 4: You're right, everybody else did a kiss.
Speaker 3: Bill kisses Bonnie.
Speaker 4: Bill kisses Bonnie.
Speaker 2: You guys kiss Maitland kisses Jack, Angela kisses now Corey
Speaker 2: and Sean.
Speaker 4: Jack, and I kiss with three. I've kissed three people
Speaker 4: kissed every.
Speaker 3: Guy on the show but me.
Speaker 2: There's not a single I'm the.
Speaker 3: Only It just says guest stars only.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, I'm not a single person. How they never
Speaker 2: have me kiss Maitland, They never have me kiss Trina,
Speaker 2: they never have me kiss Danielle. Obviously, so there's not
Speaker 2: I'm the only cast member that did not kiss another
Speaker 2: member of it. They tried to have me kiss you
Speaker 2: get right back when I stop it. Yeah, yeah, but
Speaker 2: that's that's a weird thing that I'm the only one
Speaker 2: that is a.
Speaker 3: Very interesting but entirely like why are we talking about
Speaker 3: this because that means so much about it. It means
Speaker 3: so much to show.
Speaker 2: It means so much to the show that out of
Speaker 2: the eleven or twelve cast members, only one of us
Speaker 2: didn't make out with somebody else on the show. And interestingly,
Speaker 2: you were probably the first to make out on the show, right,
Speaker 2: like Eric was making out girls in season one when
Speaker 2: no one else was kissing. Yes, well no, no, the
Speaker 2: first kiss on the show was Corey Topanga against the
Speaker 2: locker because that was episode four, right, yeah, yeah, so
Speaker 2: that was but that was before Phoene's niece comes on.
Speaker 2: That was Programma was a rolling Stone. So yeah, they
Speaker 2: had the first kiss in the show.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: So he shrugs and tells her sorry. Angela responds, it's okay,
Speaker 1: I've been getting a lot of that lately. Corey says
Speaker 1: she doesn't deserve it because she is a great person.
Speaker 1: He thanks her and they embrace in a cuddle, which
Speaker 1: is also just weird.
Speaker 3: You know, the way she puts her leg around him,
Speaker 3: Like I was like if do people do that, well,
Speaker 3: that would make me uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: If I guess friends could cuddle like that. I mean,
Speaker 2: when you're in your like late teens, early twenties, you've
Speaker 2: got a close friend, you would cuddle. I mean that's
Speaker 2: not that weird a thing. I don't think, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I guess maybe.
Speaker 3: I mean I think I think obviously so like she did,
Speaker 3: you know, like friends just cuddle?
Speaker 4: I mean I would I do.
Speaker 1: I do think maybe it's possible that like writer and
Speaker 1: I were extra affectionate as friends, Like I don't know
Speaker 1: that I would have that we would have ever had
Speaker 1: a reason to lay on a bed and then for
Speaker 1: me to put my leg on you. But I do remember,
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't have thought anything of like sitting on
Speaker 1: your lap, right yeah, if my kind of situation and
Speaker 1: there was like a shared chair and there was no
Speaker 1: reference for me to sit, I would see me coming
Speaker 1: and like sitting on your leg and you put your
Speaker 1: arm around me.
Speaker 4: The way there, No, I wouldn't now I would like
Speaker 4: there's no where to say.
Speaker 3: I guess do you think that's an age thing or
Speaker 3: a generational like like was it a decade thing?
Speaker 2: Like? Is it just I think it's us acceptable for people,
Speaker 2: or I think it's an year younger.
Speaker 3: You just yeah, they're lying on.
Speaker 2: The bed cuddling. I remember us as cast members do
Speaker 2: that at times wheth like the scene is open, we're
Speaker 2: talking about something, one of us lies in the bed,
Speaker 2: somebody else lies next to them, and arm goes around them,
Speaker 2: Like I remember us doing that stuff, which.
Speaker 1: Is definitely yes, touchy feelings people. And part of it
Speaker 1: is exactly what writer and what we've been joking about,
Speaker 1: which is like there is this feeling of like, well,
Speaker 1: if somebody tells me to do something, I just kind
Speaker 1: of have to do it. And part of also acting
Speaker 1: is using your body and being in close proximity and
Speaker 1: like working things out with other people.
Speaker 4: So there's a lot of.
Speaker 1: Boundary crossing that we don't think much about, but I
Speaker 1: know that, Like the difference I felt between Boy Meets
Speaker 1: World and Girl Meets World was like night and day.
Speaker 1: It was like, wait a minute, this all feels way
Speaker 1: different now than it did when I was a teenager,
Speaker 1: and I know that like teenagers run.
Speaker 4: I see it at the mall. You know, I'm a
Speaker 4: big mall person. I love them all and the teens
Speaker 4: love them all. The mall's having a research that's still
Speaker 4: a thing.
Speaker 1: Really.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It is the first generation, multiple generations to love them
Speaker 1: all again. And so there are lots of kids in
Speaker 1: friend groups on dates at the malls I go to,
Speaker 1: and they are always holding hands, giving each other piggyback rides. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, it's hanging all over.
Speaker 4: Each It's an age thing.
Speaker 1: I think your hormones are raging and you have this
Speaker 1: ability to have close proximity to somebody without it really
Speaker 1: meaning anything, and it's like platonic but also like just endorphins.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it's an age thing.
Speaker 2: I think so too. I think you're also at that
Speaker 2: age starting to get less physical affection from your parents
Speaker 2: because you don't want it because you're a teenager. So
Speaker 2: you're seeking it elsewhere with like your friends. I think
Speaker 2: that's another possible.
Speaker 3: Way, right, But I mean the interesting wrinkle to me
Speaker 3: is like, will you and I would never lay down
Speaker 3: in the bed like that together?
Speaker 2: Right? No?
Speaker 4: True, it was.
Speaker 3: Always hetero and it was all you know, that's super interest.
Speaker 3: There's not like there was not. Me and Ben were
Speaker 3: not I mean actually Ben and I would like wrestle
Speaker 3: like push like we do that kind of yeah, but
Speaker 3: we would never lay in a bed like this cuddled,
Speaker 3: whereas like Danielle and I would write like and Danielle, yeah,
Speaker 3: well we're also.
Speaker 2: Was intersexual though that I mean we were born straight.
Speaker 3: So but but it obviously has some work.
Speaker 4: And it can't be totally platonic, not totally platonic.
Speaker 3: Like it's not like you and I are just purely
Speaker 3: like our bodies want to be around each other, because
Speaker 3: that would have been like whoa, we would have had
Speaker 3: a gay panic moment right, Like it's not even in
Speaker 3: this episode, like the guy puts his arm around Corey
Speaker 3: and then it's suddenly, oh god, that might So it's
Speaker 3: interesting that like, yeah, it's totally platonic, but it was
Speaker 3: also boys and girls.
Speaker 4: Like and hormones.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying is like hormones at that time,
Speaker 1: whether you realize it or not, being that physically close
Speaker 1: to the opposite sex is like fulfilling some sort of
Speaker 1: like endorphin, you know, like fields good, but also like
Speaker 1: not because I'm trying to like sleep with you or anything.
Speaker 1: But just you know, I don't know it is platonic,
Speaker 1: but it's just not. Yes, Corey starts to spiral again.
Speaker 1: What about when I walked in and Sean was in
Speaker 1: his underbands? Angela laughs, If you're going to be with
Speaker 1: THEA for the rest of your life, don't you think.
Speaker 4: You should trust her more.
Speaker 1: Corey insists nobody would trust anybody if they were caught
Speaker 1: in such a compromising position set up set up on
Speaker 1: cue and walks to Panga. She lets out a sigh
Speaker 1: of relief.
Speaker 4: There you are. We've been looking all over for you.
Speaker 4: He blurts out, I can explain.
Speaker 1: But Tapanga doesn't even think twice about it. She calls
Speaker 1: out to Sean. She's found Corey in bed with Angela.
Speaker 2: It's a funny life. It was great the way he
Speaker 2: said is he's in bed with Angela like it was
Speaker 2: just normal. They're in bed together, totally normal.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Sean enters and smiles. They're so cute.
Speaker 1: Then he and to Panga give each other a quick
Speaker 1: look before jumping on the bed to join as well,
Speaker 1: and we freeze right before they land on the bed.
Speaker 2: And here's the thing I thought about with that. The
Speaker 2: second so rider you jump. Ben's wearing boots, but he
Speaker 2: brings his feet in to protect himself, and I just thought, Oh,
Speaker 2: if they kept this going, those boots are gonna up
Speaker 2: right in Rider's ribs like you were just about to
Speaker 2: get smacked, and they freeze framed it. That's all I thought,
Speaker 2: was like, oh God, he's gonna get her.
Speaker 1: I have no memory of leaping into the air and
Speaker 1: landing on the bed or landing on top of tre
Speaker 1: and I don't know where I landed, don't remember it.
Speaker 3: Hey, the taggle, save it the tagle.
Speaker 4: We're in the apartment.
Speaker 3: How can we get skeletons involved? Just I just if
Speaker 3: the only way this episode is going to be any
Speaker 3: good is if we can get skeletons with pies.
Speaker 2: It's like they'd rented them. It's like, well, they're due
Speaker 2: back next week, so we might as well use them
Speaker 2: somewhere because it's like, we what is this?
Speaker 4: This is just a comment on how long women spend
Speaker 4: in the bathroom. We're in the apartment.
Speaker 1: The kitchen is still in food fight shambles, and Eric
Speaker 1: and Jack are still covered. They're standing by Rachel's doorway
Speaker 1: holding two pies. Also, let's just talk about again the reality.
Speaker 4: Of the situation. Why did they have three pies.
Speaker 2: Pie for each person?
Speaker 4: So as part of their fancy.
Speaker 3: They're just whipped cream in a pan, right, that's all
Speaker 3: these pies are?
Speaker 1: So sure they couldn't just gone and we don't know that.
Speaker 1: The idea is that they're pies. Really, yeah, he says,
Speaker 1: She says pie pie Jack.
Speaker 4: And and then and maybe.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe they went out and got new pies covered in.
Speaker 1: Sauce, left the house while she's in the bath. They
Speaker 1: left covered in their food, yes, and went and got
Speaker 1: two new pies.
Speaker 2: Well, what the thing you don't know about this building
Speaker 2: is it's above a pie shop.
Speaker 3: Got it?
Speaker 4: That makes sense?
Speaker 3: So they went down, they got to the completely believable
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, yes, just yeah, this is fine.
Speaker 3: The pitches they rejected for the tech. It's like now
Speaker 3: that no one will buy that.
Speaker 1: They're gonna surprise her once she's out of the shower,
Speaker 1: but Jack admits she's been in there an awful long time.
Speaker 2: They're gonna surpise her.
Speaker 3: This episode, this episode.
Speaker 1: Eric nods, well, you know, women they like Telufa. Eric
Speaker 1: finds the bright side. The cleaner she is, the better
Speaker 1: this is going to be. They are giddy about this
Speaker 1: awesome prank they're about to pull, but Jack can't help
Speaker 1: but notice how long it's truly been. Eric assures him
Speaker 1: it'll be worth it. They'll wait there one hundred years
Speaker 1: they have to. The screen fades and the words one
Speaker 1: hundred years later appear on the screen. On screen, we
Speaker 1: now see two skeletons standing at the doorway holding the
Speaker 1: same pies.
Speaker 4: Rachel yells out, is up.
Speaker 1: This skeletons collapse shark in the background, resulting in a
Speaker 1: puff of smoke. Well, you can join us for our
