Speaker 1: know what. I'm still gonna show up and I'm still
Speaker 1: gonna watch an episode and we're gonna do. We're gonna
Speaker 1: do the thing. I'll tell you, man, a little Nike. Well,
Speaker 1: nice night's sleep right after this. I don't want to
Speaker 1: do the day quill because it's like it's seven that
Speaker 1: in you and I just like give my liver a
Speaker 1: little bit of a rest. But I apologize for the
Speaker 1: creepy deep voice, and I'm not mad at it. I
Speaker 1: kind of like it. I can't really breathe right now,
Speaker 1: so your breath or your mouth mouth, so anyway, Danielle,
Speaker 1: take it away, synopsizing the way only you know how
Speaker 1: to alright? Season four, episode sixteen, The Reigning Lorelai air
Speaker 1: date March second, two thousand four. The unexpected death of
Speaker 1: Grandma Tricks devastates Richard, plus a secret letter is unveiled
Speaker 1: that sends Emily over the edge. Lorela is left to
Speaker 1: finish planning the funeral while Rory writes the obituary for
Speaker 1: her great grandmother. Man, what do you think of this episode? Oh?
Speaker 1: I mean, we just see Emily and Richard just go downhill,
Speaker 1: but at the end that there's hope. There is hope.
Speaker 1: So I did love that. But I kind of liked
Speaker 1: seeing their demise for an episode. Yeah, like they were
Speaker 1: they were not Emily and Richard. Yeah, not at all,
Speaker 1: like we've never seen them before. Um, did you remember
Speaker 1: this episode, Scott? Did you remember this? No? Not at all, No,
Speaker 1: not even a little bit. It was look who decided
Speaker 1: to join us. I don't even want to talk about it.
Speaker 1: Technology is so challenging. Did you have to move to
Speaker 1: twenty different spots in your house too? Well? Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: not my mom's and I'm on the floor and then
Speaker 1: the computer just crashes. But whatever, And I don't want
Speaker 1: to be a buzz scale. But I did not love
Speaker 1: this episode, did you, guys? I mean, it's not my
Speaker 1: top but it it wasn't the worst. It was definitely
Speaker 1: entertaining for me and not my top two. But I
Speaker 1: did I did enjoy it. I enjoyed it too well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it proves so it kind of it kind
Speaker 1: of goes against my theory that, you know, just the
Speaker 1: Gilmore stuff at the Gilmore House can can work as
Speaker 1: a standalone series. No, I'm saying no. But if if
Speaker 1: audiences had never experienced Stars Hollow before and this show
Speaker 1: just came out, it was just like the four of
Speaker 1: them and then Maids and Friends and things like that, um,
Speaker 1: it probably could have stood alone, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Those those four are dynamic and interesting enough. Um, and
Speaker 1: obviously the writing team, you know, we didn't spend very
Speaker 1: much time in Stars Hollow. I didn't spend very much
Speaker 1: time at all with anybody else. It was. It was
Speaker 1: a heavy, heavy, heavy Richard Emily episode, which is you know,
Speaker 1: kind of great all on its own because it wasn't
Speaker 1: look it was an easy episode. Not easy, but an
Speaker 1: easier episode for Lauren and alexis because a lot of
Speaker 1: the heavy lifting was being done by their parents, and
Speaker 1: so the onus is on them, and and it's nice
Speaker 1: to give Lauren and Alexis a little breather, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because and I'm not saying that they
Speaker 1: didn't have to be there all day every day, and
Speaker 1: of course they did, but um, you know, emotional emotionally speaking,
Speaker 1: it was on Richard and Emily and they hit it
Speaker 1: out of the park and it was and it was
Speaker 1: also for me. Yeah, well, I mean I think acting
Speaker 1: wise great, Maybe I'm just like grouchy Party of One
Speaker 1: like it was because it was sad. Maybe it was
Speaker 1: because it was too sad for me, Yeah, that could
Speaker 1: be it Like Richard's mother dying, It was sad for me.
Speaker 1: I was thinking that too. Like you know, this show
Speaker 1: does death really well. But do you really want to
Speaker 1: do death on this show? You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: because usually when when somebody dies on this show, and
Speaker 1: it's happened before, it's been somebody a little distant and
Speaker 1: for some they always glean the comedy out of it.
Speaker 1: Somehow you're kind of nailing it, you know, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. And and you know, like Suki and
Speaker 1: Lauren show. I think you're nailing it because I think
Speaker 1: I think I don't want to have Danielle take her
Speaker 1: headphones off. But I think that's my problem with it
Speaker 1: is because it really brought it too close to home
Speaker 1: for me with what happens later in the movie, right,
Speaker 1: because this isn't this kind of show. Yeah, and that
Speaker 1: was so painful, and the other shows do death, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this doesn't. This show is not about it. It's not
Speaker 1: even close to being about it, right in a sense,
Speaker 1: but when they do it, it's it was. It was
Speaker 1: pretty good, actually, it is good. The way that Emily
Speaker 1: revealed the death was also such a Gilmore way to
Speaker 1: do it. Like I I even forgot, like I've seen
Speaker 1: this episode before, but I forgot. I was like, oh
Speaker 1: this is this episode, Like I even it was just
Speaker 1: so blunt, like, hey, have a second to talk on
Speaker 1: the phone, and your grandmother died. Yeah, it was like, okay,
Speaker 1: it kind of like three for a loop for a second. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because it was shocking too because we just bettle with
Speaker 1: her and she was fine. Yeah. Yeah, So it was
Speaker 1: like and we knew Marian Ross was fine obviously because
Speaker 1: she's alive now another character, right, So it's like, why
Speaker 1: did they do it? Although there's reasons, Well, I feel like,
Speaker 1: do you think, excuse me, do you think it's mainly
Speaker 1: because there's so much of the storyline with like Richard
Speaker 1: and Emily and Richard because you know then not to
Speaker 1: jump ahead, but the letter comes in place. So I
Speaker 1: feel like it was more of a storyline for Richard
Speaker 1: and Emily in their character developed more. They had to
Speaker 1: bring them back together, and they used her death to
Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, because because I don't think fans were digging,
Speaker 1: uh where Richard and Emily were going in the series,
Speaker 1: because their their beloved. You need that solid base. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you buckle up, everybody. Yeah, do we all have to
Speaker 1: take our headphones off? Now? It's not Tara but you two. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, I I don't know why I think look everybody.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know about you guys, but I've
Speaker 1: experienced this loss, this type of loss too many times
Speaker 1: in the last fifteen years. Um, and it's gut wrenching.
Speaker 1: It's really really tough to get through it. But um
Speaker 1: it forces you to grow as a person. It's it's
Speaker 1: but it's it's you know, when you lose your mom,
Speaker 1: there is nothing like that. Uh, it's it's horrible, and
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, how did it make I kept thinking,
Speaker 1: how is this making me feel? And how is it
Speaker 1: making everybody in the audience feel? Because you know everybody,
Speaker 1: it made me feel terrible. So that's why you kind
Speaker 1: of don't do death in this show. And I kept thinking,
Speaker 1: is there another way something could have happened to Trixie
Speaker 1: or there could have been a different way to bring
Speaker 1: Emily and Richard together, right except for like losing like
Speaker 1: what became for me one of my favorite characters in
Speaker 1: the show. Uh, And it didn't start out that way,
Speaker 1: but that last episode she was in, just she it
Speaker 1: was just so brilliant and I wanted more of that,
Speaker 1: you know, and now we don't. Now we can't get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that conflict between them, Yeah, I think a very useful
Speaker 1: uh nice tension added to the show. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: just my opinion. And the letter, I mean, I know,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to start going through
Speaker 1: the whole episode, but the letter was so horrible. And
Speaker 1: then I don't Emily is unhinged enough for me, so
Speaker 1: seeing her so unhinged, Although it was funny the smoking
Speaker 1: and the drinking. I was like, I don't, why do
Speaker 1: I not love this? Right? Right? You're seeing a great
Speaker 1: actress um doing things we haven't seen her do before,
Speaker 1: and she's she's just so good, isn't she? And she's
Speaker 1: so funny and she's so I mean, I think of
Speaker 1: all of the talent in that cast, um, you gotta
Speaker 1: hand it to Kelly Bishop. Yeah, I mean you just
Speaker 1: have to give it to her. I mean, she's what
Speaker 1: a fierce, fierce talent um and that was on full
Speaker 1: display in this episode. And and I see a little
Speaker 1: note here by our team that that that Kelly Bishop
Speaker 1: said to People Magazine, this is her face of an
Speaker 1: episode of the series. You can see why. Well, yes,
Speaker 1: okayause she got to come out of that that, you know,
Speaker 1: the tautness and the tightness of that role she was
Speaker 1: playing and just let it go get drunk and like,
Speaker 1: who cared? That's what's making me think is because she
Speaker 1: was so good in the episode is maybe why I
Speaker 1: also didn't love the episode, because it was all just
Speaker 1: way too believable to me. And I don't like Richard
Speaker 1: being like that. Richard is a force. Richard is the steady,
Speaker 1: strong father figure. So maybe it was just not that
Speaker 1: it was not a great episode, it was just setting episode.
Speaker 1: It was it was definitely different. Um. I was engaged.
Speaker 1: I was engaged. I was on the edge of my seat.
Speaker 1: I was all the great lines were coming, all the
Speaker 1: great acting was there. I mean, you're getting so much
Speaker 1: from the show, even when it's what we consider to
Speaker 1: be a little bit off center in terms of tone. Right, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's still bringing the heat. It's still engaging and great
Speaker 1: and just filled with great acting. And man, when do
Speaker 1: you ever see that, um like to that level? When
Speaker 1: did people ever get to do that? Because that's you're
Speaker 1: it's like you're watching theater or you're watching really really
Speaker 1: good film. I just thought this was it was unlike
Speaker 1: what we're used to on Gilmore Girls. But I think
Speaker 1: that I think that the writers have trained us as
Speaker 1: an audience to expect the unexpected, and that's kind of
Speaker 1: how they write. And this was definitely unexpected, but you know, delightful.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, maybe it was also because Luke and Nicole.
Speaker 1: It was just for me, I was like, uh, there's
Speaker 1: no unhappy and stars right now, right right right. It
Speaker 1: certainly didn't have the levity, shall we say, um, it
Speaker 1: was a different kind of humor, right, it was. It
Speaker 1: was deep, unt wrenching reels. And we come right from
Speaker 1: the very beginning of her friend dying. It's like, why
Speaker 1: is already dying? You know what I mean? Like her
Speaker 1: her friend dies, and then there's that drama and Richard
Speaker 1: isn't going to go to that funeral because he's gonna
Speaker 1: go with Mr. Himoto and Digger and yeah, and so
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, and then then they got another death.
Speaker 1: What did you find out? A little odd that, um,
Speaker 1: you know, Richard begged off that funeral. He said he
Speaker 1: had a business meeting and a lunch golf thing with
Speaker 1: with clients with Jason, and well, what's it's like so
Speaker 1: unfeeling and so uncaring. You know, her her good right,
Speaker 1: you're a good friend passed away, right, and nobody cared.
Speaker 1: Larela I didn't care, making jokes about it. Richard didn't care,
Speaker 1: didn't want to go to the funeral. It's like, jeez man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was tracking though, based off the right off of
Speaker 1: Richard's got going on right now. His work and Digger
Speaker 1: are so much more important. And look, I just want
Speaker 1: to say, it's almost like this is one of those
Speaker 1: episodes where four episodes from now, when we do that,
Speaker 1: this is going to make a lot of sense. And
Speaker 1: maybe that's what's clouding me because I'm a little dreading
Speaker 1: some of the things that are coming. So I don't
Speaker 1: know what's messing with me. They obviously I thought they
Speaker 1: needed to build another foundation to the structure and this
Speaker 1: is it. This was it um and you know that's life, right,
Speaker 1: People get, people become invisible in relationships at times they
Speaker 1: have to sort of, you know, shout a little bit
Speaker 1: and say, hey, you know, take care of me. And
Speaker 1: that's just sort of this natural cycle of relationships in life.
Speaker 1: And you know, Emily is in one of those right now.
Speaker 1: So you're so right, Like I know that we don't
Speaker 1: like you know, death on Gilmore Girls or you know,
Speaker 1: problems between Emily and Richard because they are you know,
Speaker 1: quote unquote the pillars of you know, the show. But
Speaker 1: I do think Gilmore Girls in general, there's a really
Speaker 1: good way of of like mirroring what's happening in life
Speaker 1: for just people, but also making it you know, a
Speaker 1: little adding a flare to it, a little more dramatic
Speaker 1: obviously because it's a TV show. But I think people
Speaker 1: can can watch this and relate to it, you know,
Speaker 1: whether their grandmother passed away or they feel invisible in
Speaker 1: you know, their relationship, or um a relative passes away
Speaker 1: but they're not close to them, so they don't know
Speaker 1: how to feel. You know. Like all these different elements
Speaker 1: of this show. Although it does suck, it's centered around death.
Speaker 1: I think everyone can kind of find a thing that
Speaker 1: they can relate to. It's almost like, oh, I didn't
Speaker 1: know they could do that, And look how versatile the writings,
Speaker 1: look how versatile the acting is. They went there. It's
Speaker 1: like a band. You know, some bands they're very versatile.
Speaker 1: They can do all different kinds of styles and oh,
Speaker 1: nice ballads and then heavy stuff and then cool rock
Speaker 1: stuff and some bands just do straight rock stuff or whatever.
Speaker 1: And you know what, you're gonna get this one. It's like,
Speaker 1: this is a different type of a song that Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's a good analogy, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And you still like the band, but you're like, right,
Speaker 1: it deepens the experience with the band. It's like I
Speaker 1: didn't know they could do that, or they would do that,
Speaker 1: Like it was a risk, right, they took a risk
Speaker 1: and it paid off. I thought. I just thought it
Speaker 1: deepened the show, deepened the quality of the show, and
Speaker 1: it deepened our experience as an audience of it because
Speaker 1: we're going deeper with them. Yeah. I liked loraa Lye,
Speaker 1: like she was handling everything. Well. I sort of brought
Speaker 1: it up like Digger kind of bugged. I don't know why. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that one, that one line he said where he was
Speaker 1: like someone like ever like was the one lighte he
Speaker 1: said where he was like it's a bad time my family,
Speaker 1: where someone's dying once a month or something like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and when he was ten years old. Yeah, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: just thought Digger didn't really step up. He didn't really
Speaker 1: step up for Richard, he didn't really step up for
Speaker 1: lower Lie. Yeah. But do we expect him to We don't.
Speaker 1: I don't, absolutely not. I sort of always hoped he
Speaker 1: would be a really great guy. I'm waiting for the
Speaker 1: funny excuses, and I find him just bizarre and funny.
Speaker 1: Now you know, he's like the funnier. He was the
Speaker 1: funniest guy in the episode because he was like, no,
Speaker 1: I like, you don't understand. I'm really screwed up and
Speaker 1: I can't do this when I was Tennis Like, it's like, okay, alright,
Speaker 1: this guy he's like, did you see how long that
Speaker 1: hug was? Wait? Okay, I know I'm being annoying by
Speaker 1: like trying to direct so long? Why did that? Luke
Speaker 1: and Nicole we get that kind of so, so we
Speaker 1: get the opening scene and they're eating the scargo, which
Speaker 1: is so gross. I mean, just that scargo was great
Speaker 1: if it's done well, No, it's just that's so good.
Speaker 1: Such a Now it's Scot's like such a Yes, I've
Speaker 1: never tried it, but I want it. Oh, Tara, Tara
Speaker 1: just opened up the hole. I know you should have
Speaker 1: said that. I actually why, I'm very like, I'll eat anything,
Speaker 1: like I really do. I'll try anything, so at least
Speaker 1: once I've tried it. It's not the taste of it's
Speaker 1: the thought of it. Yeah, is it like really salty?
Speaker 1: Like the chew of it? You know, if you combine
Speaker 1: it with a pesto like a warm pluck. I don't
Speaker 1: even like pesto. Well, let's talk about Nicole and Luke,
Speaker 1: because I feel like there's a lot there, and I
Speaker 1: feel like, Amy, you are passionate about Nicole and Luke,
Speaker 1: so you go for it. Well, I don't like it.
Speaker 1: I've never liked it. I'm ready to be done with Nicole.
Speaker 1: I actual really thought she was done. I forgot that
Speaker 1: we have to deal with this, so, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: not feeling like she could like I liked. She's fine,
Speaker 1: she's fine. No one's right for him. So anyway, I mean, okay, fine,
Speaker 1: they're fighting. It's really annoying. They should end it. And
Speaker 1: it was a little sad when he's like, are you
Speaker 1: going home? And she's just like, yeah, no, are you
Speaker 1: going back to our place? And she's like whatever she says,
Speaker 1: what did she say? She said our place? Yeah, because
Speaker 1: it's not their place, like Luke does not stay there there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well right, I don't even want to know what's going
Speaker 1: on between those two. I just wanted to end. Yeah,
Speaker 1: no one cares. Sorry, love Tricia, right, she's great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's a great actress and she was fun on set.
Speaker 1: It looks great. She's just great every way. But yeah,
Speaker 1: that relationship is seen better days. Man, it never saw
Speaker 1: better days. It was bad from the start. I don't know,
Speaker 1: so anyway, I'm not sure. I guess Look who am I?
Speaker 1: Who am I to judge? I'm supposed to be fired.
Speaker 1: But what it's fine. Look, we're all trying, and I'm
Speaker 1: working on all the things that you guys criticize. I'm
Speaker 1: working on it also. Anyway, let's get back to it.
Speaker 1: So Lane is working at the diner, which I like,
Speaker 1: and how the fish pan got mixed with the eggs?
Speaker 1: I correct, Yeah, But what I actually I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's is this weird of me to get territorial because
Speaker 1: those are my lines? Right? I wanted to deliver those lines.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Lanes lines. He means, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like, now Lane's taking my lines away from me
Speaker 1: just because you were fighting the coal. But I want,
Speaker 1: I want, I want, Then I want Luke any line
Speaker 1: in the diner's looks, I mean, I agree, I mean
Speaker 1: you don't. They're not Lane lines. They're lukelines, and having
Speaker 1: Lane do lukelines is then Lane's not being Lane. So
Speaker 1: it's sort of all mixed up. Yeah. I feel like
Speaker 1: when I was watching this, I felt like, Okay, obviously
Speaker 1: Rory's in Yale and they don't want to like get
Speaker 1: rid of Lane, so like they're trying to incorporate her
Speaker 1: in a different way that she can hear in every episode,
Speaker 1: or of her with the boys at the apartment. I've
Speaker 1: gotten more of that. Probably she needs money through but
Speaker 1: we can know she works at the dinner. I think
Speaker 1: for me maybe it was too much with the death,
Speaker 1: Emily's meltdown, the letter, Richard heartbroken, and Luke and Nicole
Speaker 1: are fighting like I didn't have any Luke and lower
Speaker 1: Lie comfort. As it might be. I think that in
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, we have all been conditioned,
Speaker 1: if we're fans of TV watching UM to get ten
Speaker 1: great episodes and that's it. That's all you get per season.
Speaker 1: This order when we were doing it, was twenty two,
Speaker 1: so it's hard. It's so hard to do twenty two.
Speaker 1: It's really hard to do, like and I think this
Speaker 1: show does it better than anybody to give you twenty
Speaker 1: two really quality episodes, even though yes we can point
Speaker 1: out some um you know, we could do a little
Speaker 1: Monday morning quarterbacking, which isn't terribly fair because we're not
Speaker 1: there in the writer's room in the moment, under pressure,
Speaker 1: taking studio notes, taking network notes, rejecting them, you know,
Speaker 1: filing through everything. What do we do? What do we do?
Speaker 1: And then they make these decisions, and we're still getting
Speaker 1: these great episodes. So it's really tough producing, especially back then,
Speaker 1: producing all these episodes now a lot of these new
Speaker 1: ten episode arc things that one season. I don't think
Speaker 1: that these show runners are getting the level of notes
Speaker 1: that network television gives their showrunners. I think that since
Speaker 1: they're coming from the film side, right and creating these
Speaker 1: wonderful shows, these dynamic, incredibly insightful and beautifully acting and
Speaker 1: beautifully written shows, you're not getting the kind of uh
Speaker 1: network or studio notes that one would expect. It's like,
Speaker 1: hands off. You know, we've got Oscar winning people in here,
Speaker 1: Oscar nominated writers in here. You know, f off, We're
Speaker 1: gonna do what we're gonna do. You're gonna and that's
Speaker 1: the way it is. So it's it's um So I
Speaker 1: thought they navigated. I thought Gilmore, the Gilmore writing staff
Speaker 1: navigated this stuff beautifully because it's well, it's really hard
Speaker 1: to do back then. I'm able to separate myself and say,
Speaker 1: just because I didn't love it doesn't mean it's not
Speaker 1: an amazing episode. I think it was an amazing episode. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I maybe it was just in the headspace
Speaker 1: or it was too two. It almost just made me
Speaker 1: think too much, and I didn't like where my head
Speaker 1: was going. Right, It's not what this show does best,
Speaker 1: but it proved that it can do it if call
Speaker 1: upon to do it. And what did you think of no,
Speaker 1: go ahead, go ahead? I mean, what did you think
Speaker 1: of sort of incorporating a little bit of Yale into
Speaker 1: this episode with the paper and Doyle. I enjoyed that stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't mind that. I could have done without it.
Speaker 1: I'm over. I'm over Doyle, Like well, oh no, really, guys,
Speaker 1: Doyle is going to be around. He just is. Like
Speaker 1: so I will say, like, I don't like Doyle. Here,
Speaker 1: I don't I I like Doyle. Fine, if Rory starts
Speaker 1: dating Doyle, I'm going to be mad. Not saying anything,
Speaker 1: but again, if they if they cut to a Yale scene,
Speaker 1: the pull is the pull away from death and into
Speaker 1: life and you know, and youthful life and energy. It's
Speaker 1: really strong and you want to stay there so you
Speaker 1: don't want to leave, and then you go back to
Speaker 1: death and it's like, you know, but you're so yeah,
Speaker 1: so interesting. You bring that up too, because I thought,
Speaker 1: and I don't know, i'd be interested to take a
Speaker 1: stop watch. I felt like the death anything with the
Speaker 1: death storyline, the scenes felt long, and the other scenes,
Speaker 1: the diner scene, the Doyle scene, the Suki scene, they
Speaker 1: all seemed so short to me. So I don't know
Speaker 1: if they were they actually were shorter, or if it
Speaker 1: was just like I was getting these brief breaths and
Speaker 1: then I had to go back to the terrible and
Speaker 1: then I'm already feeling terrible, and then the letter, I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, And now I don't like Tricks. I
Speaker 1: mean I always thought she was sort of like, we
Speaker 1: have so much to talk about, Okay, go to Suki.
Speaker 1: You know who I did love in this episode, Michelle, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's always great. Anyone else look up mock turtle soup?
Speaker 1: I think I did. But what I'm confused about is
Speaker 1: they say turtle next soup? Did they not? Well, Richard
Speaker 1: did Emily did? I think she misunderstood from Richard and
Speaker 1: that's why they're like, do you mean mock turtle soup
Speaker 1: because it doesn't correct, and she's like, what is turtlenext soup?
Speaker 1: Like that does not I think that was just didn't exist.
Speaker 1: I think he was supposed to be a funny joke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was like Emily didn't know what it was. Like,
Speaker 1: clearly she doesn't cook, she doesn't know what these things are.
Speaker 1: And then that's why Suki was like, oh, you mean
Speaker 1: mock turtle soup? Is it like chili mock turtle soup?
Speaker 1: I looked it up and and yeah, it kind of
Speaker 1: looks like that. It's it's almost like a beef stew soup.
Speaker 1: It doesn't look It contains chicken thibe and beef and
Speaker 1: is filled with tomatoes, eggs, onions, and peppers. I'm not
Speaker 1: mad about it. That could be one variation. Oh it
Speaker 1: was an article saying eat like a Gilmore mock turtle soup?
Speaker 1: Do you really? Yeah to me? Yeah, that's right. I'm
Speaker 1: still waiting on some pillows and shirts and things like
Speaker 1: that which I'll never can thank you. Oh yeah, I
Speaker 1: haven't gotten mine either, Scott, don't you feel bad getting soon? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And James pettit's on it too. We've been emailing with
Speaker 1: him getting some more merg So okay, I did like Suki.
Speaker 1: I like how they reacted very appropriately to the situation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were like, we're here for you. Michelle was so
Speaker 1: cool and even the hug and then the funny joke
Speaker 1: and let's not do that again. The whole thing. I
Speaker 1: thought that whole scene that felt good, and Michelle was
Speaker 1: trying to find the dog show all that. I was
Speaker 1: like that. But it also let us know as an
Speaker 1: audience that we're gonna push the pause button on all
Speaker 1: of these characters, every single one of them, because the
Speaker 1: showcase is going to be Richard had a little bit uh, Lauren, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, this is this is who we're dealing with.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna, we're gonna we're gonna do that to
Speaker 1: the rest of them, and we're going to stay here,
Speaker 1: which is which is you know, kind of fine. Right,
Speaker 1: everybody needed to rest, and it was a chance maybe
Speaker 1: for Amy and Dan to see what they could whip
Speaker 1: up for Kelly um and here I go again, here again,
Speaker 1: still be ignored by the Academy. You want to tell
Speaker 1: me they were better performances than what Kelly get Bishop gave.
Speaker 1: There weren't, So maybe that was just sort of a
Speaker 1: measuring and Richard, I mean, like Richard in this episode
Speaker 1: was just so incredible, That's what. So we just get
Speaker 1: to that scene where Laura and Laura Lae brings in
Speaker 1: the soup and Richard's on the couch, and that's when
Speaker 1: you're just like, oh my god, this is brutal and
Speaker 1: he's so sad, and then he has that regret and
Speaker 1: it's just like, which is a very again another thing
Speaker 1: somebody can relate to, like this is morbid. But like
Speaker 1: anytime I see my parents and if I get into
Speaker 1: a fight with them, I cannot let them leave until
Speaker 1: totally we're okay again and happy and giving each other
Speaker 1: a hug. Kill that stress, that the thought of what
Speaker 1: happened to Richard stresses me out, like I I don't
Speaker 1: I don't know. I totally agree, And maybe that's why
Speaker 1: it was so upsetting, Yeah, because you you started thinking
Speaker 1: about all those things. So I almost was like removed
Speaker 1: from the show because I started thinking about so many
Speaker 1: real life things. I don't know if that was my problem,
Speaker 1: probably because it made you actually sad. You know, you're not.
Speaker 1: You're not sad at Emily and Richard. You're sad at
Speaker 1: like how it's actually reality and even in your own
Speaker 1: life too. We're normally and I think Scott, we've talked
Speaker 1: about this. It's like with Gilmour girls, you're so did
Speaker 1: I forget everything happening around me when I'm watching it. Literally,
Speaker 1: sometimes I'll be like, I'm just gonna watch twenty minutes
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, oh, the whole episodes over, whereas
Speaker 1: this one I kept taking me out, maybe because I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that happened to me. It wasn't. It
Speaker 1: wasn't the escapism that we have grown accustomed to. And
Speaker 1: when Doyle said he goes to call his grandpa or grandma,
Speaker 1: that happens to me all the time. So I think
Speaker 1: maybe it was just too many, like real life things
Speaker 1: were coming in my head because I always try to
Speaker 1: call my grandpa always. I don't know, maybe that was
Speaker 1: the thing. I think so Amy, if it pulled a
Speaker 1: real life you know, sadness from you and it put
Speaker 1: you in that in that headspace, I mean, Luke, oh
Speaker 1: my god, wow, Scott, Scott, you had that with with um,
Speaker 1: your sister, and you talked about that and how you
Speaker 1: were just so upset that episode and that hits such
Speaker 1: a real life moment for you and real life parallel
Speaker 1: and Amy, that's what this episode is doing for you,
Speaker 1: you know, And then you know, Emily, she was eighty six.
Speaker 1: Tricks was eighty six, so it was like great life
Speaker 1: mm hmm. And then I think the pain for Emily.
Speaker 1: Emily is running around like a you know, trying to
Speaker 1: do everything and on her all her wishes when it's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, this woman. It was so awful. Do
Speaker 1: you imagine what the show would have been like had
Speaker 1: Tricks been a series regular and it was structured like
Speaker 1: Tricksie and her brood and then Richard and Emily and
Speaker 1: too much Tricks. You can only take her in small time.
Speaker 1: I mean the fact that Tricks married her second cousin.
Speaker 1: We talk about that she was so Gilmore. She's like,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be a Gilmore Gilmore and I and
Speaker 1: I love that it can come up. I think also
Speaker 1: those phone calls. So then we have the phone call
Speaker 1: where Lorely calls Rory and they sort of chat, because
Speaker 1: you can't just be like, oh, hey, your grandma died,
Speaker 1: like would you almost like why the way Emily, like
Speaker 1: that's how Emily did it, So I think lourely, I
Speaker 1: didn't want to do the same thing to Rory. Emily
Speaker 1: it was better because it's like when someone says, oh,
Speaker 1: I need to tell you something, you have that moment
Speaker 1: of pure and total like that, Ah, that is the worst.
Speaker 1: But there's like no other way to preface it. I
Speaker 1: don't feel Hi, your grandma died. Yeah, it's either the
Speaker 1: way Laurea I did or the way Emily did it,
Speaker 1: Like there's no one between. Yeah. And then Rory trying
Speaker 1: to sort of grapple with how she was feeling. I'm
Speaker 1: not crying, shouldn't be more sad, Like I was just
Speaker 1: getta know her, like, oh, that's funny. At least a
Speaker 1: person called her what she loved and told her right, yeah, uh,
Speaker 1: some family experience, you know, they get an email or
Speaker 1: they got a phone call from a police officer. Oh god,
Speaker 1: oh god. Yeah, and it was there were still good
Speaker 1: moments of levity to where they were like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you've worked yourself up into a nice panic attack. Rory
Speaker 1: was very relatable sort of how she was dealing. That
Speaker 1: was very because this is not even her. This is
Speaker 1: her great grandmother, so it's like who she didn't even
Speaker 1: know that like, and then her wanting to learn about
Speaker 1: her and wanting to help. I did love that she
Speaker 1: learned about It was a kind of weird things she
Speaker 1: learned about her great grandmother more through like researching for
Speaker 1: her obituary than talking to her. But I feel like
Speaker 1: that in a weird way. Really, I saw a bond
Speaker 1: between Richard and Rory and this episode more than and
Speaker 1: I've always known he's had like a special connection with her,
Speaker 1: but this episode, I was like, oh, they are. They
Speaker 1: are very connected totally. When she said I've got your back, like,
Speaker 1: if you need me to do it all, I can
Speaker 1: do it yea and tie his tie, Hey, grandpa, you're
Speaker 1: not wearing your shoes like and having a piece of
Speaker 1: paper and he's yeah, Like she took care of him
Speaker 1: in a different way of this episode. Yeah, And I
Speaker 1: was happy when Richard got it together. Yeah, I'm only
Speaker 1: was still unhinged. He started to get it together a
Speaker 1: little bit more, and then she really got it together
Speaker 1: for the funeral, thank god. Yeah, I mean I'm skipping ahead,
Speaker 1: but it was very sweet when that scene where she
Speaker 1: talks about make sure he eats, and then he acknowledges it, Yes,
Speaker 1: a woman with a tray is coming over to me
Speaker 1: every eight minutes you're doing. And then they are sort
Speaker 1: of reunited, and and Rory and lower Lie or maybe
Speaker 1: it's just lower Lie. It's so happy to see that
Speaker 1: m hmmm. Well, and the main part of that was
Speaker 1: that Richard was like, I'm you know, I don't think
Speaker 1: she belongs on our mantle. I think she should be
Speaker 1: married next to next to dad. And Emily was like, um,
Speaker 1: but she you know, she had her request and then
Speaker 1: he was like, well, no, like I think she should
Speaker 1: be very next to dad. And then you know, Emily
Speaker 1: was like, whatever you want, Richard, and they like she
Speaker 1: just you can just tell she was like, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. And we
Speaker 1: don't even know that Richard knows about the letter. I
Speaker 1: don't think he does. Do you think he doesn't? Um, Well,
Speaker 1: if he doesn't, if he's not aware of the letter,
Speaker 1: he's certainly aware of her feelings about right, he's aware
Speaker 1: of the letter because he got the letter, but he's
Speaker 1: not aware that Emily now knows about well. Do you
Speaker 1: think that he, like, he could have also completely forgot
Speaker 1: about the letter. You know, I didn't remember he saved it.
Speaker 1: It's one of those things where he like threw it.
Speaker 1: Do we know if she even gave him the letter? Like,
Speaker 1: do we know that? We're assuming because that's a carbon copy?
Speaker 1: Do you guys know what that means? Yeah, they don't know,
Speaker 1: like an exact copy. Yeah, well, because it was written
Speaker 1: on carbon paper. So back in like the day, you
Speaker 1: would write something on this paper and then it would
Speaker 1: keep a copy of it, like you know your checkbook.
Speaker 1: You yeah, yeah, I get that, but they don't really know.
Speaker 1: I know, I know what Yeah, yeah, I didn't know.
Speaker 1: Shout out to Easton. That's what CC means and emails
Speaker 1: is it? Yeah? Carbon carbon copy? Me, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: know that. That's so. Is BCC blind? BCC is blind copy.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that a carbon cop. I shouldn't say this.
Speaker 1: Actually I'm going to be a little bit more vague.
Speaker 1: But it was an email that went out where I
Speaker 1: think everyone was supposed to be b C c oh no,
Speaker 1: and everyone was c seed no. You're going through the
Speaker 1: list going well, just on this do I have it?
Speaker 1: I just haven't read it yet. It's like the other
Speaker 1: thing that everyone does and don't act like you don't.
Speaker 1: When you get someone's address immediately, you're all zello zello
Speaker 1: within point oh five seconds, like immediately, coffee in her
Speaker 1: house like so much. I got invited to the houseworving
Speaker 1: party and I was like zillo zila, that thing the
Speaker 1: second I got the housewarming party invite. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm mad at you. When they're like sold off market
Speaker 1: and you're all a really good price, I'll do that,
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Everyone. You know what's interesting about Punel
Speaker 1: and Lot. She was in one episode, right, she is referenced.
Speaker 1: I think actually you can even find out how many
Speaker 1: times she's referenced. She's referenced so many times in this show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she was. I agree with you. I thought of that too.
Speaker 1: I'm like, how did she only appear once in this
Speaker 1: such a presence in this to show? Um? Yeah the bomb? Yeah, okay, Scott,
Speaker 1: I have a question for you the letter. Let's just say,
Speaker 1: you know your wife got that letter from her dad, like,
Speaker 1: and you found out about it, Like, what does it
Speaker 1: like for me? Personally? I would die? Like I literally
Speaker 1: don't know how I can come back from that. Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: But Graham was already so awful and she's wrong. Richard
Speaker 1: and Emily are meant to be so she was wrong. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, it gives us a clue. So it was like,
Speaker 1: you know, it was this sort of Lady Die and
Speaker 1: Prince Charles scenario. Camilla Parkle balls, right, it reminds you
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, but obviously Richard was a better man
Speaker 1: at that time and understood more what he needed in
Speaker 1: his life than his own mother. Well, and Graham was
Speaker 1: tough on him. That's the whole fight that he has
Speaker 1: so much regret about, is that she was remember when
Speaker 1: she had to bail him out, which probably was sort
Speaker 1: of fine at the time, but then calling it out
Speaker 1: this many years later and not really honoring all the
Speaker 1: success that he has had on his own. She sort
Speaker 1: of tried to take credit for a lot of the
Speaker 1: air and he was like, I paid you back within
Speaker 1: three months or whatever the time was. Like, she was tough, yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, at one point, do you do you
Speaker 1: do you lay down your sword and and for the
Speaker 1: for the betterment of all and for the good of
Speaker 1: the family. Uh, you know, embrace Emily and yeah, keep
Speaker 1: your shut. Yeah. It's like and she just kept coming
Speaker 1: in and coming, you know. It's like, that's why I
Speaker 1: didn't like her. It's after Emily, after forty plus years,
Speaker 1: it's like, chill, okay, accept it, grow up totally. Stop
Speaker 1: being such a a fly in the ointment, right, It's like, okay,
Speaker 1: stop castrating your son. Stop degrading Emily in front of
Speaker 1: the granddaughter. In front of the daughter. It's like, you know,
Speaker 1: they had every reason to explode at her prior to
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just inappropriate. That's what you write
Speaker 1: that letter, right, So she writes that letter horbal letter, awful.
Speaker 1: But Richard married Emily anyway, So if you love your kid,
Speaker 1: then you go. I said my piece, and now I
Speaker 1: must move on. But yeah, after all these years, and
Speaker 1: also the fact that it's Emily like cleaning up her
Speaker 1: estate essentially, you know what I mean, Like this person
Speaker 1: that she deemed so bad for her son is taking
Speaker 1: care of everything with her death, you know, like, just
Speaker 1: had that nice lady in that pretty suit do everything exactly,
Speaker 1: Like why is Emily even in there? Just have that
Speaker 1: nice lady who who's packing up the house just do everything. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: well then you don't get that scene right exactly. How
Speaker 1: about grand met three presidents? Pretty good? Okay? Can we
Speaker 1: go back to the fight with Nicole and Luke. The
Speaker 1: one thing that I thought was so hysterical was the
Speaker 1: entire diner it's quiet listening. That was good and Kirk
Speaker 1: saying he can read lips and first of all, yeah,
Speaker 1: my other question is, what is it? A chef salad?
Speaker 1: Our chef salad? Does anyone order a chef salad anymore?
Speaker 1: I feel like they order a cob salad. A chef
Speaker 1: salad is kind of like a cop, right, That's what
Speaker 1: I was bad cob. I think I ordered a Greek
Speaker 1: salad last night. Greek sp It's a great call. That's
Speaker 1: very current. Chef salad seems so it's like it's like
Speaker 1: the B version of a chop. It's a B version.
Speaker 1: It's a that's meant to say, have a cop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it says it's lettuce, it's Swiss cheese, bad hay um,
Speaker 1: turkey or chicken roast, beef, my god, it's a meat salad,
Speaker 1: meat salad. And then there's eggs, avocado, tomatoes. God does
Speaker 1: anyone when have you guys ever ordered a chef salad
Speaker 1: in your life? I don't think so. Maybe I like
Speaker 1: a good cob. I love the Yeah, I love a chop.
Speaker 1: We know. I hate to miss I've missed out on
Speaker 1: salad conversations before I thought of getting involved. Welcome to
Speaker 1: I am all salad. It's a lot of meat and
Speaker 1: I don't know that Swiss cheese in a salad. I
Speaker 1: gotta call that little chef rider. He's got a lot
Speaker 1: to do. He's gonna have a taste turtles, turtle soup
Speaker 1: and a chef sal He's busy. He's a busy week.
Speaker 1: Jackie came in with a question. Oh yeah, Jackie, what
Speaker 1: was that question you had about what I was going
Speaker 1: to bring up? Yeah, she said, without knowing Marian Ross
Speaker 1: played Maryland, which is Richard's cousin. Would you have noticed
Speaker 1: it was the same actric actress as Trick? It was?
Speaker 1: It was. It was very jarring. Yeah. I feel like
Speaker 1: Gilmore has done that a couple of times though, so
Speaker 1: I've noticed. I was like, just a new wig, that's all.
Speaker 1: You got new inflections. It's like, how Kirk wasn't Kirk?
Speaker 1: Not Kirk in the season season one? He were like, oh,
Speaker 1: you're right, Yeah, it was not Kirk, just for like
Speaker 1: a couple episodes. But yeah, I love that question because
Speaker 1: it's like, of course I would notice Marian Ross like,
Speaker 1: but maybe not, maybe not. I mean, we were we
Speaker 1: were on alert in the world would notice. I know
Speaker 1: you're right, but we were especially on alert. I was
Speaker 1: waiting for her to come back because we knew that
Speaker 1: we didn't got it, Maryland, I don't know, but that's
Speaker 1: sort of had the seeds of a budding horror film,
Speaker 1: you know, all of a sudden she's back from the dead,
Speaker 1: back from the dead and standing there posing as her
Speaker 1: but his cousin, where's this going? Oh Emily in the
Speaker 1: row by the way with the drink and the cigarette.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like with the yeah they say the
Speaker 1: rope too. Oh, the Victoria's Secret scene or the fake
Speaker 1: Victoria's Secret whatever that Laurel becomes unhit underwear and she
Speaker 1: totally just loses it with that poor salesperson, Marylyn. Isn't
Speaker 1: two episodes, We've got one? Yeah? Yeah, death makes people
Speaker 1: lose it? Who does even Laurel? I lost it? Victoria's Secret?
Speaker 1: Yeah she did, But also like what a weird thing
Speaker 1: to do out? Yeah, yeah, I don't think you. I
Speaker 1: think somebody's told you. I was gonna say, isn't someone's
Speaker 1: drop to dress them? Like, unless there's something, there's a
Speaker 1: dress special you want to give? Yeah, you still bring
Speaker 1: the clothes. Did you guys ever see that show six
Speaker 1: ft Under? I never watched it, but I think that
Speaker 1: whole show was about I think they owned but yeah,
Speaker 1: that's like a that's quite a business. I did. I
Speaker 1: did enjoy at the end where Rory was like I
Speaker 1: did see that you put a Hello Kitty bracelet on her,
Speaker 1: like like that was so funny. Oh god, I mean
Speaker 1: Laura I put. Yeah, but that's just the guilt, you know,
Speaker 1: that's the yah. It's a Laura I touch. We talked
Speaker 1: about the scene with Richard and Rory though. That's where
Speaker 1: we're at now. It's like such a great scene. I
Speaker 1: love fourth times the charm with the bow tie looks good.
Speaker 1: Fourth times a charm and again reference references the internet. Oh,
Speaker 1: you can find anything on the internet. I had this
Speaker 1: conversation with my I bumped into a friend the other
Speaker 1: day and she was married, divorced, married again, and I
Speaker 1: hadn't seen her since she got married again. And the
Speaker 1: ring was like so beautiful and I'm like, you're it's amazing,
Speaker 1: and she goes, you only get married twice. That's a
Speaker 1: fourth of times. The charm reminded, um, did you think
Speaker 1: we should have seen the eulogy? Were you happy we didn't?
Speaker 1: It's kind of like all of a sudden we knew
Speaker 1: he got through it. I was fine without it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: me too. Yeah, I'm always like skip skip over the wedding,
Speaker 1: skip over the funeral. Yeah, I think it would have
Speaker 1: been enough. We had enough already with the death. We
Speaker 1: didn't really need. Yea, this is my granddaughter, Laurla. She's
Speaker 1: not married. Yeah, there was that. Somehow Tricks said that.
Speaker 1: I forget who was telling the story, but she's like, oh.
Speaker 1: And then that was so sweet when Marilyn says, am
Speaker 1: I possibly related to you? That was that was cute.
Speaker 1: That was very cute. Did you like I liked her.
Speaker 1: I liked her. She's less annoying than Tricks slightly. What
Speaker 1: a character. Yeah, she's fun and I like that. We
Speaker 1: heard all those stories about Tricks that, you know, like
Speaker 1: we're when she was here and there, she did this
Speaker 1: and that. I don't know, it's kind of cool. There
Speaker 1: were some epic lines when when lord lyon Emily are
Speaker 1: on the couch and she's all, how are you? My
Speaker 1: feet are killing me. How's the rest of you? Oh God?
Speaker 1: And then she says, did you were really wear those
Speaker 1: shoes to a funeral? Still the same old Emily back? Yeah,
Speaker 1: she just had like one day she was off. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. There was some good stuff yeah, what
Speaker 1: did you think about the reigning Lorelai conversation? Interesting because
Speaker 1: Lorelai is now the rain. But I want to hear
Speaker 1: Scott h Well, I mean talk about a huge responsibility.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what it even means. What
Speaker 1: does that mean? What is she carrying on? I mean
Speaker 1: she couldn't be you know, she's a hundred and eighty
Speaker 1: degrees different from um from Trixie. Does anybody have that
Speaker 1: in their family where like they can't, they can't somebody
Speaker 1: carries on a name like I don't know, that doesn't
Speaker 1: exist in my family. There's not like me, I was
Speaker 1: supposed to be the fifth No, so's my point. It's like,
Speaker 1: what is Lauraa carrying on? What her what will her
Speaker 1: reign include? What will she how will she carry the
Speaker 1: family name? And I know that's probably a big deal,
Speaker 1: but I mean, I mean she is also kind of
Speaker 1: I mean not yet, but the reigning Gilmore in the
Speaker 1: from her, you know, her dad's line, because they don't
Speaker 1: have another kid or anything like that, only child, one granddaughter,
Speaker 1: big responsibility. No, she's she's redefining the d NA. What
Speaker 1: the DNA is capable of? Richard Emily don't have siblings
Speaker 1: that we know of. Who doesn't Richard and Emily? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we never meet them. I mean, was I guess Richard
Speaker 1: was an only child? Wasn't? I said, I'm looking and
Speaker 1: and Emily was an only child? Richard was because they
Speaker 1: had mentioned it. Okay, what about Emily? Emily? Emily? I
Speaker 1: don't know, but I know what Tricks mentioned. I've been
Speaker 1: feeling that Emily was a opted Really, so, Richard, Lorelei,
Speaker 1: and Rory Gilmour were all only children. Emily was not. Oh,
Speaker 1: Emily Gilmour has a sister. Hope she lives in Paris, France. Really, yeah,
Speaker 1: Emily has a sister. She's mentioned in season one, episode eight.
Speaker 1: We must have forgotten it was my mother's name. Oh really,
Speaker 1: it's name. Why did Richard and Emily have only one child?
Speaker 1: They had fertility issues? Wow, they would have had a
Speaker 1: lot of value placed on their bloodline. They would not
Speaker 1: consider adoption a viable alternative, which maybe is another reason
Speaker 1: Tricks doesn't like Emily didn't produce enough airs. How old
Speaker 1: was Emily when when Rory was born? Emone has a
Speaker 1: complicated relationship. Wow, the internet is just I could do
Speaker 1: a deep dive here for days. To get a question,
Speaker 1: and then it gives you a more quick Why is
Speaker 1: Bebett's house so small? Does Rory have a half sister? Yes,
Speaker 1: we already know that. Wow, this you could just really
Speaker 1: go on and not we could do a whole episode
Speaker 1: of this. Let's do one day. We're gonna just type
Speaker 1: gilmore questions into the internet and just do I hope
Speaker 1: Danielle didn't hear that. Just now, by the way, is
Speaker 1: already born. Okay. I was like, no, one Flint and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh Danielle, no I thought. I was like,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, no, Sherry had a baby. I
Speaker 1: forgot the house after she saved enough money from working
Speaker 1: at the Independence In. Most of the furniture, including the beds,
Speaker 1: are discarded pieces from the Inn courtesy of Mia Wow.
Speaker 1: I mean, all right, what do you what do you
Speaker 1: let's rate this? What do you what do you want
Speaker 1: to give it? It was, by the way, it was
Speaker 1: so funny. I saw a comment saying, why didn't you
Speaker 1: guys rate last week's episode in costco membership card. Okay,
Speaker 1: I have two ideas. We can't either rate it turtle
Speaker 1: turtle or mock turtle soups or what about class car
Speaker 1: glasses or yeah, what about s car go mock turtle soups?
Speaker 1: Is what's hitting it for me? But Chef, why don't
Speaker 1: we just give it our own like that? How you
Speaker 1: pick your own? Okay, good, pick your own. I say
Speaker 1: eight out of ten, Hello kitty bracelets. I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: seven point five, Hello kitty bracelets. Seven chef salads, seven
Speaker 1: let six and a half chef salads. Wow, you really
Speaker 1: like it? Um, I'm gonna give this Uh, I'm actually
Speaker 1: going to award it an extra point for being so
Speaker 1: bold as to go where no man has gone before,
Speaker 1: exploring new planets and planetary solar systems. Um. They explained
Speaker 1: they went to explore death in the starship, and I
Speaker 1: kudos to them for doing it. So I was going
Speaker 1: to give it um seven point five, but I think
Speaker 1: I'm going to add a point for exploration and risk taking.
Speaker 1: I love risk taking. Um, So I'm gonna give it
Speaker 1: not only an eight point five, and I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: an extra point four points for the Emily performance, and
Speaker 1: then another point four points for Richard's performance, so that
Speaker 1: we're up to nine point three now, and are you
Speaker 1: giving it nine point three? What's bar classes that was
Speaker 1: a more important question? Or nine point three open bathrobes?
Speaker 1: Do you know that I learned on TikTok that everyone
Speaker 1: is doing their bathrobes wrong? Wait? Why? Okay, so you
Speaker 1: know you've got your bathrobe right, and you know there's
Speaker 1: that like rope or tie and people put it through
Speaker 1: like it's a belt. Right, They put it through the
Speaker 1: one loop it around their back and put it through
Speaker 1: the other thing and tie it. Nope, you're supposed to
Speaker 1: put it just through the front. So you put the
Speaker 1: bathrob on and you put it through the one on
Speaker 1: the right, and then you don't go around your back.
Speaker 1: You just put it across your stomach and you tie
Speaker 1: it there. And what's the point of all the loops?
Speaker 1: There's only two loops. No, there's always one on your back. Incorrect,
Speaker 1: So listen, I hate to cut into this fascinating diet
Speaker 1: at my room. I am all rope talk, but the
Speaker 1: crack staff has unearthed some very interesting, very interesting observations
Speaker 1: or this episode. People don't want I am off chef
Speaker 1: talk and I'm all road talk. We'll be back. Don't
Speaker 1: you want uh this? No? No, no, we're definitely gonna
Speaker 1: it'll be a thing. Yes, the road talk quite riveting. Uh.

Speaker 1: as the sales clerk in the lingerie store. She previously

Speaker 1: Laurel I went to during their spa trip in season

Speaker 1: the reverend that comes to town for Grants funeral. He
Speaker 1: also appeared as one of Richard's golf buddies in season

Speaker 1: At twenty nine minutes exactly, look outside the diner window.
Speaker 1: You can see Miss Patty just standing there, waiting for
Speaker 1: her cue to enter the dinner. At nine minutes that
Speaker 1: they do. They're freaking good man. Uh. At one, while
Speaker 1: uh Luca Nicole are arguing, Miss Patty is sneaking a
Speaker 1: taste from the marmalade jar. At thirty, here we go,
Speaker 1: what do we have? Okay? We got twenty nine? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that really takes an eagle eye because you could have
Speaker 1: play it, Jackie, so I can see if she's staying,
Speaker 1: like if she like moving or let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: And the correct staff is so juiced up on Scotty Peace.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah she was the seconds. Yeah, go back, go back,
Speaker 1: so we can see her go back, yep, Okay, let's
Speaker 1: see it here. By the way, that kid had the
Speaker 1: funniest line of the episode. Yeah, we're looking at the
Speaker 1: news at the paper. Okay, you're just standing like as
Speaker 1: long as she walked around the corner, and she's just like,
Speaker 1: that's really classic. What's crazy is when we go back again, Jackie,
Speaker 1: when we watch these you really look at all the
Speaker 1: extras out the windows that you would never notice, but
Speaker 1: like they're there. Do you think she was supposed to
Speaker 1: be behind like the green pillar? And yeah, and she
Speaker 1: was just like two steps back. Is that the chef
Speaker 1: salad on the table? No, that looks like a that
Speaker 1: looks like a club sandwich? Okay, all right. At UM
Speaker 1: thirty two thirty five, in the scene where laurel Ie
Speaker 1: visits the Longest Race Star, keep an eye on Lauren
Speaker 1: right after she says the mayflower for a quick second,
Speaker 1: it appears she breaks character and suppresses a laugh with
Speaker 1: her hand, but she recovers and moves on with the scene.
Speaker 1: I feel like that was acting. We're gonna have to
Speaker 1: examine that. We're gonna have um all right, crack staff
Speaker 1: has let's see see can we see it again? We
Speaker 1: couldn't tell anything anyway, alright. Favorite lines from the crack Staff,
Speaker 1: uh kirk. I don't know why everyone in this town
Speaker 1: always thinks I'm crazy. They enjoyed that. Also another one
Speaker 1: favorite line Emily talking about the wake because personally, I
Speaker 1: think she would just toss some cheese cubes in the
Speaker 1: coffee stuff, some toothpicks in her mouth, and let the
Speaker 1: people go to town. Yeah that was good too, all right,
Speaker 1: thank you, crack Steah, well done. Indeed, like kids, I
Speaker 1: think that's it. We're gonna anyone else have favorite lines?
Speaker 1: I did mine. I had one. It was when Rory
Speaker 1: said it was my great grandmother. I dropped the grate
Speaker 1: to make it sound sadder true, just like you could
Speaker 1: tell she was just like felt so bad, like lying
Speaker 1: about it. You're gonna go ahead and give mine. Give
Speaker 1: one from Nicole when she is like I was in
Speaker 1: the middle of the word september. I thought he was like,
Speaker 1: I thought we were done. She was like I was
Speaker 1: in the middle of the word september. Irritates Nicole. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I said some of them, but this
Speaker 1: wasn't my favorite. But it didn't make me chuckle. How
Speaker 1: when at Victoria's secret Lore like really said she's dead.
Speaker 1: So many times she's dead? That was really God. Wasn't
Speaker 1: there something about nuts with extra nuts or was that
Speaker 1: my line? I kept writing down these people are all
Speaker 1: nuts with extra nuts. What's up in the episode? Where
