Speaker 1: So it was my birthday this last week. I am
Speaker 1: now forty five.
Speaker 2: You're a pup.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I had a nice little gathering. I had
Speaker 1: friends from out of town come stay with me and
Speaker 1: then had some friends over at the house. It was amazing,
Speaker 1: but it made me think of, I don't know if
Speaker 1: I ever told you guys about the time when I
Speaker 1: turned twenty one? Have I ever told you.
Speaker 3: This birthday twenty first birthday story?
Speaker 1: So I had moved to New York, so you know,
Speaker 1: sort of changed my entire life postboy Mets World. So
Speaker 1: this is when I was twenty and I just spent
Speaker 1: my first semester at Columbia, and I moved to New
Speaker 1: York making all the wrong decisions. I decided to drive
Speaker 1: my car all the way across the country coey in
Speaker 1: a U haul trailer of all my furniture and life
Speaker 1: and stuff, right like in retrospect, like just go and
Speaker 1: figure it out, right, Yes, New York is a difficult city. Well,
Speaker 1: it's an impossible city to have a car in r
Speaker 1: It's also just a difficult city to like deal with stuff.
Speaker 1: So I ended up like bringing all my stuff and
Speaker 1: I rented an apartment. I rented a huge apartment because
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm coming from LA. I'm going to
Speaker 1: spend all the money and have like a because I
Speaker 1: had a loft in LA and I was like, I
Speaker 1: should have a loft in New York. Well guess what
Speaker 1: at that time, especially a loft in New York because
Speaker 1: I had been living in downtown LA where my loft
Speaker 1: was very cheap. So suddenly I was in like just
Speaker 1: spending so much money. I had this huge loft. I
Speaker 1: had no idea how to fill it, like I you know,
Speaker 1: just before that, I just like had furniture from my
Speaker 1: parents or whatever. And so suddenly I just had this
Speaker 1: giant space. And I was in my first semester. I was,
Speaker 1: you know, behind in everything, and I decided. I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing anything for my birthday. I just wanted
Speaker 1: I know, twenty one is a big one. But I
Speaker 1: told my girlfriend. I was like, can we just like
Speaker 1: have a dinner. And I was so stressed out and
Speaker 1: She's like, yeah, okay, we'll have We'll just have you know,
Speaker 1: two of her old friends from college who we were
Speaker 1: now you know, they were living in New York. So
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, let's just go. The four of
Speaker 1: us have like a fancy dinner. She's like, well, let's
Speaker 1: get dressed up. Let's let's put on like suits and
Speaker 1: you know, nice dresses and make it like a fancy night.
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, fine. So then the day
Speaker 1: of the my actual birthday, I have a final paper
Speaker 1: due that Monday, and it's a Saturday, and I spend
Speaker 1: all day scrambling to write this giant, you know, research paper,
Speaker 1: and I'm so stressed out and like I actually kind
Speaker 1: of have a breakdown, and my girlfriend's like cleaning the apartment.
Speaker 1: I'm like, why are we cleaning the apartment? Like, you know,
Speaker 1: I just I just don't want to. I don't even
Speaker 1: want to go to dinner. I just want to, like
Speaker 1: I just want to stay up all night and finish
Speaker 1: this paper. And she's like, you know, she she's like,
Speaker 1: calms me down. She's like, you know what, like take
Speaker 1: a break, let's go to dinner. Let's let's at least
Speaker 1: just enjoy ourselves and have a good time. And then
Speaker 1: we go. We have a nice dinner, and the my
Speaker 1: girlfrid friend and her friend and this other woman that
Speaker 1: we were with was like, you know what, we got it,
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the apartment and change our shoes
Speaker 1: before we go get a drink after dinner, you know,
Speaker 1: my twenty one year old drink. And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm like, do we have to go all the way
Speaker 1: back to the apartment. We're already out, and they're like, no,
Speaker 1: the shoes, we can't walk, and I'm like, O, get fine,
Speaker 1: And so the four of us get into the elevator
Speaker 1: and go up to my apartment.
Speaker 2: At door party, yep.
Speaker 1: And it was at my apartment, that's why she had
Speaker 1: been cleaning, right, And my first moment was like panic, right,
Speaker 1: like first, there are so many people, and then it
Speaker 1: ended up being the greatest night of my life because
Speaker 1: I like literally started crying and like just running around hugging,
Speaker 1: and everybody's dressed in suits. She had told them all
Speaker 1: to dress like it was a big fancy night, you know.
Speaker 1: So we were all like we fit right in and
Speaker 1: my apartment was just filled with people. And I was like,
Speaker 1: you know, I had moved to New York, I maybe
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't think I had that many friends yet.
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know that ask.
Speaker 2: Because how did you know these people were already?
Speaker 1: That's the thing she had really done a great job of, like,
Speaker 1: you know, finding a network of people who you know.
Speaker 3: Some would someone tend to you?
Speaker 2: No, No, it was you know I.
Speaker 1: It was like I, because what happened is I moved
Speaker 1: to New York sort of following a couple people, Like
Speaker 1: I had a friend who had I had met in
Speaker 1: college out here who had already transferred to NYU and
Speaker 1: was already there. And then I had a friend who
Speaker 1: had gone through a divorce and moved to New York.
Speaker 1: And it was visiting the two of them actually when
Speaker 1: I decided to move to New York, and they of
Speaker 1: course had their like network of friends. And so within
Speaker 1: that first semester, I had already met a lot of people,
Speaker 1: and of course, you know at college, I had met
Speaker 1: some new people, and she managed to get everybody to come,
Speaker 1: and so it was like it was really my welcome
Speaker 1: to New York moment, like, oh, I actually do know
Speaker 1: a lot of people here. They actually will show up.
Speaker 1: And she had asked them each for whatever reason. On
Speaker 1: the invite. She had made an invite with like rubber
Speaker 1: ducky on like a rubber ducky on the cover, and
Speaker 1: she was like, bring your favorite rubber ducky, and so
Speaker 1: everybody brought duckies, like different themed rubber duckies, you know.
Speaker 3: Have fun different rubber duckies.
Speaker 1: Are you Oh you got to be even gone down
Speaker 1: the rubber ducky rabbit hole.
Speaker 2: No, we'll be in the rubber ducky hole.
Speaker 1: You can find rubber duckies in like, you know, Christmas
Speaker 1: rubber duckies, Halloween rubber ducky whatever. So everybody had brought
Speaker 1: their own rubber ducky and we had a like a
Speaker 1: little Christmas tree that we decorated that that she had
Speaker 1: decorated with rubber duckies just for the party. It was
Speaker 1: so much fun, but it was just that feeling of like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, what is happening? And then you realize
Speaker 1: I have no control over this. I just have to
Speaker 1: like enjoy this and just go with it. And you know,
Speaker 1: having a drink at twenty one, my first legal drink,
Speaker 1: and hanging out with all these friends.
Speaker 3: But you didn't have to get carted on your twenty
Speaker 3: first birthday. Isn't so much of the fun going to
Speaker 3: a place and the.
Speaker 2: License, Yeah, how.
Speaker 3: Old you are?
Speaker 2: The next day, where was your twenty first Danielle.
Speaker 3: My twenty first birthday. My mom took me to Vegas.
Speaker 1: Oh you went right to the gambling. Yeah, did you
Speaker 1: already know age or did you?
Speaker 3: Well, my family plays cards. We're a card family, so
Speaker 3: I grew up playing gin and so yes, I was
Speaker 3: already kind of familiar with card games. I've liked to
Speaker 3: play blackjack from the time I was young. So yeah,
Speaker 3: my mom took me to Vegas, which was really fun,
Speaker 3: and yeah, I we had a great time. My mom
Speaker 3: is a total lightweight and I was a total lightweight,
Speaker 3: and so it wasn't like a big rager of like
Speaker 3: I see how much you can drink thing. I think
Speaker 3: I had like a couple of glasses of wine. My
Speaker 3: mom had half a glass of wine and then was like, I, oh, gosh,
Speaker 3: I think.

Speaker 1: I think I need to.
Speaker 2: Go light down.
Speaker 3: I was like, it's my twenty first birthday. We can't

Speaker 4: Idea, my ID and I was so happy and I
Speaker 4: went to go order a second one and Love said,

Speaker 2: And that was it.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was a judge on your twenty
Speaker 1: first birth That was the second beer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she wrote me a second beer because I wasn't
Speaker 2: really like get yes exactly.
Speaker 3: I've never seen seen you drink.
Speaker 2: But I imagine the second beer is going to put
Speaker 2: you over the edge. So that was it. That was
Speaker 2: my twenty first birthday at ed Beecks. Yeah. Why that
Speaker 2: place was so special to me. Yeah, absolutely so cute.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, welcome to Pod Meets World. I'm Daniel Fischel.
Speaker 2: I'm rather strong and I should have gotten that second beer.
Speaker 2: I'm Wilfredell.
Speaker 3: Welcome to today's episode recap. It is season five, episode
Speaker 3: twenty four, Graduation. It originally aired May fifteenth, nineteen ninety eight,
Speaker 3: and the synopsis the group is getting ready to graduate
Speaker 3: high school when mister Feenie assigns them one last assignment.
Speaker 3: It was directed by Alan Myerson. It was written by
Speaker 3: Matthew Nelson and Bob Tishler. And then that instance of
Speaker 3: two episodes in a row for that by two people
Speaker 3: that didn't seemingly have ever written an episode together before.
Speaker 1: They must have like pitched this story, got assigned it,
Speaker 1: and then rather than like splitting it up into two scripts,
Speaker 1: they were like, let's just work on the two of
Speaker 1: them together. Yeah, it's really interesting.
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe Matt took one and then Bob took the
Speaker 4: other one, but they just wrote each other.
Speaker 2: So we wrote each other. Yeah, because they weren't writing partners.
Speaker 4: No, So yeah, that's we had part on the show
Speaker 4: several times and these guys were not writing partners.
Speaker 2: So it's weirdly they had two in a row. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So guest starring the return of Some Boy Meets World Favorites.
Speaker 3: First up, and older looking Blake Sennet is back as
Speaker 3: Joseph Joey. They're at epstein Ethan Sipplee returns as Frankie Stacchino,
Speaker 3: and finally, Lee Norris revisits his season one role, the
Speaker 3: lovable and sorely missed Stuart Minkis. This marks the final
Speaker 3: Boy Meets World appearance for all three actors, and even
Speaker 3: that is a bit of a technicality. And we have
Speaker 3: two other very important background cameos in this episode, but
Speaker 3: we will get to those later. Well, this is our
Speaker 3: season five finale.
Speaker 2: I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't.
Speaker 2: This is going by so fast.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: Do you remember when we started and we were like,
Speaker 3: we are never going to finish this podcast And here
Speaker 3: we are at the end of season five in the
Speaker 3: year nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 2: It's crazy.
Speaker 3: It's pretty crazy.
Speaker 4: This is I think also the last year we got
Speaker 4: twenty four, because normally we would get twenty two. First
Speaker 4: we get thirteen and then nine, and then we were
Speaker 4: doing so well they gave us twenty four. But I
Speaker 4: think that was only once or twice. I don't think
Speaker 4: we ever got twenty four again.
Speaker 2: I think it's better.
Speaker 3: I think you're right. I think we do twenty two
Speaker 3: next season.
Speaker 2: Because then season seven.
Speaker 4: Originally we only got picked up for thirteen because don't
Speaker 4: you remember you and I were shooting that movie because
Speaker 4: we were like, oh, we have to have it done
Speaker 4: by thirteen, and then we got picked up for our
Speaker 4: back nine and we're like, okay, we can stop for
Speaker 4: a while and then we're like, oh, we need to
Speaker 4: finish that movie. We were, so yeah, we only got
Speaker 4: picked up for thirteen in year seven one in seven.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's interesting.
Speaker 4: Actually, yeah, well I think it's because this is when
Speaker 4: TGIF was going through what are we going to do?
Speaker 2: Phase? Because I think Sabrina was leaving.
Speaker 4: Or something was going on with that, and then Family
Speaker 4: Matters had already gone. So yeah, it was ABC was
Speaker 4: in a serious state of flux at this point.
Speaker 3: Yes, So before we jump into our guest stars, would
Speaker 3: you guys like to talk about our overall thoughts? Writer,
Speaker 3: you usually go first. In the one time I didn't
Speaker 3: explicitly ask you, I made you very angry, So would
Speaker 3: you would you like to tell me your thoughts?
Speaker 1: I really liked this episode. It totally got to me.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's just it's really nice to
Speaker 1: have Phoenie moments again and to have that and I thought,
Speaker 1: you know, like as much as bringing back Joey and
Speaker 1: Frankie and Minkus was kind of a joke, it was
Speaker 1: also really nice to just see them again and I
Speaker 1: like sort of send off of like, right, this is
Speaker 1: a whole era of the show, you know, and I
Speaker 1: got kind of emotional. I don't know, I didn't really
Speaker 1: understand Sean's graduation speech. I was a little like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I think you know, but I don't know. It was
Speaker 1: like ended on such a sad note, like it was
Speaker 1: like you know, and I was just wondering what they
Speaker 1: were thinking exactly or where this is going, like why regret?
Speaker 1: Like why is that? Shawn's like, well.
Speaker 3: I actually kind of liked I didn't necessarily You're right
Speaker 3: that it came across as regret, and I think had
Speaker 3: they one of my main critiques was going to be
Speaker 3: that I wish you could have had the speech, but
Speaker 3: instead of it being a speech to the school, which
Speaker 3: then feels like, oh, this poor kid is really regretting
Speaker 3: so many things, if it had just been a conversation
Speaker 3: with Foeni, I think it would have felt like you
Speaker 3: recognizing your potential, right, because I think that's the point,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm I'm capable, I'm very capable, and
Speaker 3: I haven't been doing i haven't been living up to
Speaker 3: my potential. And the feeling is I'm no longer going
Speaker 3: to do that, and this next stage of my life,
Speaker 3: what high school has taught me is that I'm capable
Speaker 3: of more if I apply myself, and so I wondered
Speaker 3: if it was leaning toward the idea hinting at I'm
Speaker 3: not going to take the photography job, which by the way,
Speaker 3: was not mentioned at all no in this episode, And
Speaker 3: so the idea was the regrettable feeling is I do
Speaker 3: You've been telling me all four years about how what
Speaker 3: I'm capable of and I didn't apply myself and in
Speaker 3: this next phase, I'm going to it. But because it
Speaker 3: was delivered to the whole school, it was a little
Speaker 3: bit of a downer, like, oh well, it could have been.
Speaker 1: Just one of those things where I'm saying in the
Speaker 1: speech it sounds like I'm talking to the whole school,
Speaker 1: but I'm very clearly talking to Corey Topanga, Angela ande Fioeni, right,
Speaker 1: Like that would have been a nice turn if it
Speaker 1: had been like you know, and there have been some
Speaker 1: people who have made it, you know, who did take
Speaker 1: advantage of this time, and because of them, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be okay or something, you know.
Speaker 3: Like something.
Speaker 1: But it was just a little I don't know, it
Speaker 1: felt sentimental for the sake of being sentimentally, you know,
Speaker 1: it felt like they wanted Sean to have like an
Speaker 1: emotional moment a beat, and he did, and it was
Speaker 1: kind of sweet and it felt like honest and cool,
Speaker 1: like I was actually happy with the performance, but it
Speaker 1: was just kind of like I don't know quite know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, which maybe is cool, Like it kind
Speaker 1: of has this bittersweet feeling to it, so maybe that's fine.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Well, I loved it.
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 2: I thought it was great.
Speaker 4: I it's you know, and I don't know what's happening
Speaker 4: in the future obviously, but this completely and totally sealed.
Speaker 2: The deal on Sean is the star of the show.
Speaker 4: You're coming to the graduation episode.
Speaker 2: You're coming to the end.
Speaker 4: Of we don't know that Feoene's gonna come on to
Speaker 4: college with us. Their audience doesn't know this, so as
Speaker 4: far as we know, they're saying goodbye to mister Feenie.
Speaker 4: We're doing all this kind of stuff, and they give
Speaker 4: the moment to Sean. Yeah, you know, you expect Corey
Speaker 4: to get up there and a or something. I love
Speaker 4: the idea that it should have been Sean and Feenie
Speaker 4: having seen together, because frankly, I think they took another
Speaker 4: moment from Topanga where she earned the final speech, and
Speaker 4: then it's like, here's my monologue.
Speaker 2: I'm giving it to Sean and it's like, okay, so
Speaker 2: I got it. I enjoyed.
Speaker 4: I really liked the whole episode. I remember shooting this episode.
Speaker 4: I remember it was like the sun broke on my
Speaker 4: face because I think I actually broke Bill in a
Speaker 4: scene and they showed it and getting Bill Daniels to
Speaker 4: break character and actually, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 4: It was like I ad lib that ending and I
Speaker 4: was like, oh my god, I think he actually laughed
Speaker 4: or smiled, which never happens, but again it did.
Speaker 2: It sealed the deal for me where it was like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, Corey.
Speaker 4: I get they were saving him for the big reveal
Speaker 4: moment with Tapanga at the end, but they good goodbye
Speaker 4: John Adams went to Sean, and again I don't think
Speaker 4: it was necessarily a bad way to go, but it was.
Speaker 4: They were really once again, think of all the episodes
Speaker 4: we've had this season and it Sean is essentially the
Speaker 4: star boy me world, So this one again really showed
Speaker 4: me that he was and I think it changed changes
Speaker 4: coming up. I think the star really becomes Corey Topanga
Speaker 4: in season six and seven, but up till this point,
Speaker 4: from season two to through season five, I would say
Speaker 4: Sean is really the boy in boy Me World. He's
Speaker 4: the one you're rooting for. He's the one you're watching
Speaker 4: the biggest changes.
Speaker 1: In the most change he did. He's had the.
Speaker 4: Biggest arc and emotional arc throughout the entire series. And
Speaker 4: so this was at the end. It's like, yeah, they
Speaker 4: gave Sean the moment. So it was and we writer
Speaker 4: you and I've talked about this one hundred times. We
Speaker 4: didn't know that was happening, Like we didn't realize that
Speaker 4: you were the star of boy Mets World, but you were,
Speaker 4: and this this ended it. And of course seeing David
Speaker 4: Combs and was just really sweet and just the whole thing.
Speaker 4: And yeah, so I I really enjoyed this episode. I
Speaker 4: liked everything about it. I thought I had a good
Speaker 4: balance of you know, despite the cringe worthy mister Turner joke,
Speaker 4: which at the time we thought was hysterical, But you
Speaker 4: look back as an adult and you're like.
Speaker 3: Oh, no, why couldn't they. I mean, maybe Tony didn't
Speaker 3: want to come back or wasn't able to come back.
Speaker 3: He was working on something.
Speaker 2: But I don't think we ever asked him.
Speaker 1: He should have come back.
Speaker 2: I mean, godbye.
Speaker 1: I mean, if that's what this is about, is me
Speaker 1: graduated and saying and why.
Speaker 2: Is he sitting there with all the teachers and everything.
Speaker 2: I don't think astuge because he would have come.
Speaker 3: That's a really overall opportunity.
Speaker 2: Really liked the episode.
Speaker 3: I really and really great to see Lee. It was
Speaker 3: so nice to hug him at the end when he
Speaker 3: graduates and we all pull him.
Speaker 1: Into a hug. Do I get one?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: That was great.
Speaker 3: That was very sweet. All right. Jumping into our recap,
Speaker 3: we start in the John Adams Hallway. Corey eagerly stands
Speaker 3: by the lockers with an open yearbook. A girl walks by, Hey, Debbie,
Speaker 3: you want to sign my Debbie doesn't even acknowledge him.
Speaker 3: I guess you don't. He sees another classmate, Hey, Mike,
Speaker 3: let me sign your Mike is also unfhazed. We were
Speaker 3: never that close. Is this is this the same guy who.
Speaker 2: Won last week? Everyone is this popular?
Speaker 3: One knows?
Speaker 1: God?
Speaker 2: Interesting to get the same thing. It's like, wait a minute,
Speaker 2: he's prom king. He's Corey Tegan.
Speaker 3: Average yep, and he enthusiastically turns to Sean.
Speaker 2: Isn't this great?
Speaker 3: I mean, I love this week? Sean rolls his eyes. Yeah,
Speaker 3: me too. Is it over yet? Corey tries to lighten
Speaker 3: Sewan's mood, pointing out our old friends Frank and Joey
Speaker 3: back at John Adams and they are holding yearbooks of
Speaker 3: their own. They're going to be graduating this year and
Speaker 3: it only took them eight years. Blake is almost unrecognizable.
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, I wanted to have the It was like, oh, oh,
Speaker 1: it's funny. How much of that actually kind of changes
Speaker 1: as his whole care Yeah, he's doing the same stuff,
Speaker 1: but you're like, you just look like older and more
Speaker 1: clean cut and sort of cool album.
Speaker 3: You're so handsome, I mean, so so handsome and mature looking.
Speaker 4: He's like fully fully rock star by this time, by
Speaker 4: ninety yeah, right, Kylie is really taken off by this point,
Speaker 4: isn't it.
Speaker 2: I think so?
Speaker 4: And then it's like early two thousands where they really hit.
Speaker 4: But I think they're they're kind of up and coming
Speaker 4: in a major way at this point.
Speaker 1: I think I didn't know it at the time. I
Speaker 1: don't think because I.
Speaker 4: Never knew play parties that we would early if Jason
Speaker 4: Marson would hire them to come and play at his
Speaker 4: Halloween parties and stuff like that, and we'd go see
Speaker 4: him at Baseland.
Speaker 2: And I think this was kind.
Speaker 3: Of like, yeah, ninety eight, so okay, oh so the.
Speaker 2: No then this is just kind of this okay, all right.
Speaker 2: I thought this was they were getting there already.
Speaker 3: So Frankie pat's Joey on the back. This is it,
Speaker 3: my good friend, Joey, our last week is juvenile delinquents.
Speaker 3: Joey beams, Yeah, out of high school, the real world.
Speaker 3: So what do you think we should be? Frankie shrugs, criminals.
Speaker 3: We should start small. Joey agrees, Yeah, let's rob our
Speaker 3: friends the criminals. Waltz up to Corey and Sean, and
Speaker 3: Frankie explains, because we have shared both good times and bad,
Speaker 3: we would be honored if you would sign these yearbooks
Speaker 3: we have pilferd.
Speaker 2: They steal stuff that they're giving the they keep giving
Speaker 2: everybody for free. I know exactly.
Speaker 3: Actually, don't you have to buy your earbooks?
Speaker 2: I would depend when we were there. I think we
Speaker 2: got one.
Speaker 4: If you paid a certain amount of money, you would
Speaker 4: get a special edition one where it was like gold
Speaker 4: leaf for something.
Speaker 2: But I think they gave everybody one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they say in the show, you get one for free,
Speaker 3: but I think we had to pay for ours.
Speaker 2: It's California, we give you know, we give our stuff away. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Sean asks you took somebody else's yearbooks. Corey reminds them
Speaker 3: that everyone gets their own. Joey asks where's the joy
Speaker 3: in that and slams his stolen book against Sean's chest.
Speaker 3: Cory asks Frankie, what would you like me to say?
Speaker 3: Frankie grins, just put down your address, and Joey it's yeah,
Speaker 3: and what time you're not going to be home? You know?
Speaker 3: And you don't have a big dog, do you? Very funny?
Speaker 3: Corey and Sewan quickly jot down the information in their yearbooks.
Speaker 3: Frankie's pleased. You boys take care of yourselves and remember
Speaker 3: always stay friends. He smacks Corey on the back, knocking
Speaker 3: the wind out of him. We like to think of
Speaker 3: ourselves as the Corey and Sean of the underworld. Joey
Speaker 3: likes the comparison. I want to be Corey. Can I
Speaker 3: be Corey? Frankie notts that makes me Sean and with that,
Speaker 3: the duo walk off. Screen and out of Boy meets
Speaker 3: world for him.
Speaker 1: The city sure last yea.
Speaker 3: Cory asks Sean, do you see how important this week is?
Speaker 3: Saying goodbye to people we might never see again, saying
Speaker 3: goodbye to people who've been around but we lost touch with.
Speaker 3: Sean is confused, like, who Corey thinks about it? Well,
Speaker 3: I don't really know. I guess there's nobody like that.
Speaker 3: And then the camera pans to the other side of
Speaker 3: the hall Whippan and there stands Stuart Mincus, fucking smug.
Speaker 3: The crowd cheers and Corey acknowledges him.
Speaker 2: Hi Mincas.
Speaker 3: The boy sarcastically asks, oh now, it's high Mincas. For
Speaker 3: the past four years, it's like I haven't even been
Speaker 3: in the same school with you, guys. Seawan admits, we
Speaker 3: just never saw you around, Mancus, isn't hearing it? I was,
Speaker 3: I was just in the other part of the school.
Speaker 3: Sean asks what other part of the school? Mincus responds,
Speaker 3: you know, over there, and he points off camera to
Speaker 3: the side of the hallway we never see. Corey and
Speaker 3: Sean join him in examining the unfamiliar territory. Corey admits, well,
Speaker 3: we don't go there shawnagrees, you go over there, you
Speaker 3: may never come back. Mincus scoffs ah, that's crazy, and
Speaker 3: then waves to this other side and shouts, hey, mister Turner,
Speaker 3: waight up.
Speaker 4: Well, it's had a joke. It is such a joke,
Speaker 4: but it's harsh. But it is such a good joke.
Speaker 4: That's the battle inside of me, as they is. I'm like,
Speaker 4: oh god, it's such a good joke.
Speaker 2: But man, it's harsh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we loved it.
Speaker 2: I remember distinctly all of us like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: that's so clever.
Speaker 3: But it's a BS send off for a beloved character. Yes,
Speaker 3: but it's a really good joke.
Speaker 2: It is. It's a great joke. Unfortunately.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Corey changes the subject. Well, Sean, I think the
Speaker 3: time has come to sign each other's yearbooks. He sits
Speaker 3: sewn down on the senior couch and stares at him
Speaker 3: with excitement and eager. Corey asks, shall we talk about
Speaker 3: it first? Sean smiles, No, No, let's just def.
Speaker 2: Just like, okay, should we talk?
Speaker 3: That's what we're gonna say.
Speaker 1: So he's great in this episode. The chicken scene, Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I was dying. The chicken bit is, but
Speaker 1: this is is just I just love like, you know,
Speaker 1: over like what is the word like? Over? Eager?
Speaker 3: Core you know, and wants to get it so right,
Speaker 3: really sentimental about every aspect of it, really wants it
Speaker 3: to be good. Boy, Oh boy, where to begin? Huh?
Speaker 3: What am I going to say to you? Man? This
Speaker 3: is going to take me at least a week. Sean
Speaker 3: scribbles a few words enhance the yearbook back to Corey.
Speaker 3: He's done. Corey shocked, you're done. He quickly finds Sean message,
Speaker 3: Hey you write.
Speaker 4: Hey, delivery, Hey, Hey, you write hey?
Speaker 2: And it was just so good.
Speaker 3: And Sean nods and says, and I mean it. Corey questions,
Speaker 3: you don't even write my name? Sean laughs, Corey, it's
Speaker 3: your yearbook? Who else would it be to you? Know
Speaker 3: how I feel about you? Why do I have to
Speaker 3: write it down? Corey explains, because it's the spirit of
Speaker 3: the week. Sean, it's about this place.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: Why don't you care about this? And then Tapanga walks
Speaker 3: up holding something important in her hands. Look what we got,
Speaker 3: Corey gush is our senior rings?
Speaker 2: Did you get these? Did either of you actually get
Speaker 2: in high school? Graduation?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I did not know.
Speaker 2: I didn't either I knew it.
Speaker 4: Was a thing, but it was. It's like a thing
Speaker 4: from mostly like the fifties. Yes, my dad had has
Speaker 4: a high school graduated.
Speaker 3: So big for athletes, I think like, oh.
Speaker 2: Okay, I feel like there's like a letter thing.
Speaker 3: Kind of like yeah, if you played sports there. I
Speaker 3: think it's I think there are certain groups of people
Speaker 3: who are more likely to have a senior ring ring, right. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And it's just so funny the way things when you
Speaker 3: are in them feel so big, and like, imagine if
Speaker 3: I had my high school ring, what would I I
Speaker 3: would have melted that thing down.
Speaker 1: And the reunion, the reunion that reunions.
Speaker 2: And I'm not even invited to my reunions. It's true.
Speaker 2: They apparently they've had about it. Do you Here's the
Speaker 2: other thing.
Speaker 4: Do you ever actually look at your high school Do
Speaker 4: you ever occasionally grab your your book and then read
Speaker 4: some of the comments. Yeah, it's because nobody wrote in
Speaker 4: myih school year bok didn't like anybody at the time.
Speaker 4: But I have my middle school one, and going back
Speaker 4: and reading some of the comments, it really is you.
Speaker 4: It's one of those things where all of a sudden
Speaker 4: you're like, oh, I've been here, two hours, right, yes,
Speaker 4: exactly that kind of thing.
Speaker 2: Did you get one for your high school writer?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't know where it is. I don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everybody got a page, So everybody got a page to
Speaker 1: do whatever they wanted.
Speaker 2: So it was a pamphlet basically.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like you know, a lot of kitchen you
Speaker 1: are right now. Yeah, so, but I would love to
Speaker 1: see them. There's one for every year that I was
Speaker 1: at the school. We always had a year book that
Speaker 1: was like, you know, the whole to be together.
Speaker 2: A year flip, year flip, a year flip.
Speaker 3: It can't be a book. It's not big, not enough
Speaker 3: students to be a book.
Speaker 4: So I just see a bunch of students in like
Speaker 4: monk like robes, like calligraphying for the year.
Speaker 2: They're they're kind of their book to graduate.
Speaker 1: To make the paper exactly, finding it with like thread
Speaker 1: so great.
Speaker 3: Our senior rings they just arrived and to Panga, let
Speaker 3: Sean know he can go get his in the cafeteria.
Speaker 3: Sean corrects her, No, I can't because I didn't order one.
Speaker 3: They're stupid, They mean nothing. Corey and Topanga aren't listening.
Speaker 3: They're too busy admiring their rings. Sean huffs to me
Speaker 3: and walks away. Now focused on to Panga, Corey asks,
Speaker 3: so have you been thinking about Yale? This is a
Speaker 3: big decision. To Pega reminds him, I told you I'm
Speaker 3: going to Penbrook with you. That's what I want. Corey explains,
Speaker 3: you don't turn down Yelle without thinking about it first.
Speaker 3: To Pega assures him she thought about it. Corey pulls
Speaker 3: out a folder. He got some information from the Internet
Speaker 3: last night. How to use the Internet first?
Speaker 2: Is his first Internet kind of talk.
Speaker 3: There's been one other Internet mentioned we have, I think so.
Speaker 3: I think there was one other mention of it somewhere.
Speaker 3: I can't remember exactly where, but it's it's rare.
Speaker 2: I was watching porn on DIALECU, right, Yeah, that's so.
Speaker 1: It's so funny. They like, you couldn't just say I
Speaker 1: got some information last night. You have to explain I
Speaker 1: got some information on the Internet, or you go to
Speaker 1: the library. Right, Like however, you'd send away for info
Speaker 1: on the web.
Speaker 4: You'd say that too, like I got something on the
Speaker 4: web last Yeah, this is still.
Speaker 1: Like this was still like Google was one of four
Speaker 1: search engines that were like competing. You know, there's like
Speaker 1: Alta Vista and like Odscape and Yahoo right, so many
Speaker 1: people still used AOL search and.
Speaker 2: New prodigy Prodigy Prodigy.
Speaker 3: He makes her promise she'll read it before she makes
Speaker 3: up her mind. The bell rings and she gives him
Speaker 3: a big smile. I love you, Corey. He nods, well,
Speaker 3: you should. I have to say, I'm very bored, super
Speaker 3: bored by Tepega's whole storyline. Even I don't care whether
Speaker 3: she goes to Yil or not. It hasn't been set
Speaker 3: up appropriately in my mind it has been. I'm honestly,
Speaker 3: here's what it is. I'm very bored by Tepega's character.
Speaker 3: I feel like I just am not interested in anything
Speaker 3: she's doing. I don't care.
Speaker 4: Well, you've also had two episodes kind of two or
Speaker 4: three in a row where she's kind of it's like,
Speaker 4: you know, the Starry Night and everything it was.
Speaker 2: They've made her kind of monotone the whole way through.
Speaker 4: And the thing you're right about going to Yale, because
Speaker 4: it's not about whether Topang is going to go to Yale.
Speaker 4: It's about how Corey's dealing with whether or not is
Speaker 4: going to go to Yale, So it's not even about Topanga.
Speaker 3: The storry night great was boring. It was the like
Speaker 3: every time we've had an opportunity for Topanga to kind
Speaker 3: of show herself.
Speaker 1: Right, what does she want to study? What does she
Speaker 1: want to do at Yale? Or who knows Pembroke? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean there's no it's we know that she's type
Speaker 1: A and cares about those carries and smart and she's like,
Speaker 1: you know, aggressive about those things. But yeah, that's a.
Speaker 3: As Topanga leaves her class, Sean returns, pretending to be supportive,
Speaker 3: very smooth. Corey argues, I'm not pretending and I'm not smooth.
Speaker 3: Penga got into Yale, and I'm proud of her. If
Speaker 3: she cheats herself out of going because of me, how
Speaker 3: do I live with that?
Speaker 1: Very good questions?
Speaker 3: Smart fair, very fair. I love this Cory.
Speaker 4: I forgot that they really did for a couple episodes
Speaker 4: set it up where he was kind of encouraging you go.
Speaker 3: I really encouraging Virtugo, even if later when he realizes,
Speaker 3: oh man, this is going to suck for me, he
Speaker 3: does actually really say all the right things. Yeah, Sean
Speaker 3: points out the obvious, but you don't want her to go,
Speaker 3: Corey reassures his friend. I want to support her, and
Speaker 3: I want you to support me for supporting her. Sean
Speaker 3: says he does support him, and he gives an unenthused
Speaker 3: go Corey to prove it. Corey notices the tone. You're pretending,
Speaker 3: aren't you. Sean throws his arms in the air. Yeah,
Speaker 3: cor just like you. He walks away, and Corey's left done,
Speaker 3: and then we're in Phoene's classroom. Mister Phoene happily enters,
Speaker 3: welcome to your final week of Feenie. Everyone, here's your assignment.
Speaker 3: The class groans, but Phoene isn't moved. Oh shut up,
Speaker 3: I'm tired too. This assignment is completely optional and is
Speaker 3: for no credit. Sean is enthused. Oh well, then I'll
Speaker 3: start on it right away. He pauses for a millisecond,
Speaker 3: then announces, Oh look, I'm done. Phoene grins, that's right.
Speaker 3: You don't have to do it. I want you to
Speaker 3: write about what's in your heart during these last weeks
Speaker 3: of school. Sean needs clarity. I don't have to do
Speaker 3: it right. Angela answers, do it, Sean. It's no pressure,
Speaker 3: it'll be fun. Sean is certain it won't be fun.
Speaker 3: Ta Pega declares, I'm doing it, and I'm getting an A.
Speaker 3: Phoene reminds her it's for no credit. To Pega gets
Speaker 3: very intense and grabs Phoenie by the jacket. I have
Speaker 3: six hundred and ninety nine a's I need one more.
Speaker 3: Give me the a, Phoene. He shrugs, Okay, fine, you
Speaker 3: got an A. You don't even have to do it.
Speaker 3: I'll just give you an A because I'm scared of you.
Speaker 3: That's an even seven hundred. Penga needs more info. Seven hundred.
Speaker 3: That's more than anybody, right, Phoene exclaims, oh, more than anybody.
Speaker 3: To Pega's demonic grin doesn't crack as she slides back
Speaker 3: into her seat. Satisfied, he walks, you're you're.
Speaker 2: You're sitting in to frame like looking creepy.
Speaker 1: Was just love the way Bill deliveries. Oh yeah, that's
Speaker 1: more than anyone like you could care less.
Speaker 3: Absolutely by far By father, it's very trump I'm the biggest,
Speaker 3: the best I've got, You've got, uh, it's huge. Phoene
Speaker 3: walks past Corey and whispers good luck in hell, mister Matthews.
Speaker 2: Just great, And.
Speaker 3: Then we're in the guy's apartment. Sean walks through the
Speaker 3: front door to see Jack, who has set up a
Speaker 3: giant banner in the kitchen that reads congratulations Sean. Sadly,
Speaker 3: the sign covers up where the food picture would be,
Speaker 3: so we don't know what this final episode. Jack exclaims, surprise,
Speaker 3: mister graduateur, Why would he do this on a day?
Speaker 3: Isn't they and.
Speaker 2: Just the two of them? I'm putting up banners for
Speaker 2: just the two of us.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt, hat, no noisemaker. Yeah, where's chat?
Speaker 4: I have to say, though, I'm starting to really like
Speaker 4: this relationship between the two of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think what they're doing with Sean and Jack, the
Speaker 4: wrestling stuff where then you'd stop and kind of talk
Speaker 4: about why you're doing it, it's great.
Speaker 2: I dig it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, this is the payoff to that you
Speaker 1: know episode that we did mid season where we wrestled
Speaker 1: and all you know, it's when they write to us together.
Speaker 1: It actually works.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, it.
Speaker 4: Works because you're different enough to where it's interesting to
Speaker 4: watch the characters interact.
Speaker 3: My thing, though, is that this little, this little storyline
Speaker 3: of you guys wrestling and you not being into it.
Speaker 3: There's never a resolution to this. There's like, this is
Speaker 3: like the last time it's mentioned, there's never anything more
Speaker 3: between you.
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's all about tying up the loose
Speaker 1: ends from the beginning of the scenes. You think about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season was the introduction of Jack
Speaker 1: and that we are never going to be able to
Speaker 1: have a relationship. Now we're living together and wrestling and communicating,
Speaker 1: and I think they just wanted to put a button
Speaker 1: on that whole relationship so we can never address it again. Right, No,
Speaker 1: we do. We do when when Chet comes back and dies.
Speaker 1: But I feel like, wait what, yeah, do what? And
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's next I'm assuming that's next season,
Speaker 1: But like otherwise, you know, I don't think. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see because I just don't think
Speaker 1: Jack and Shawn have much more to do after this.
Speaker 1: I think they were just trying to, you know, wrap
Speaker 1: put a bow on everything. Yeah, and this is this
Speaker 1: was just that was a resolution to some dangling thread
Speaker 1: from the beginning of the season.
Speaker 3: So Sean's eye, I told you, I'm not into this.
Speaker 3: Jack isn't convinced. I've got something that may change your mind.
Speaker 3: He unveils a theme park like caricature drawing of Sean
Speaker 3: that includes him in a graduation cap and robe flying
Speaker 3: in the sky on a diploma.
Speaker 2: I want this, I want.
Speaker 1: Was like, what would.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a guy do it for I'm a snapshot.
Speaker 3: Sean grabs the picture and sarcastically says, yeah, that's great now,
Speaker 3: graduation really means a lot to me. He places it
Speaker 3: face down on the counter in the kitchen. Jack is
Speaker 3: offended by Sean's bad attitude and he shoves him. Shawn
Speaker 3: is shocked. He shouts what was that and shoves him
Speaker 3: right back. Jack angrily asks why he doesn't appreciate the
Speaker 3: caricature he had made of him with a big head
Speaker 3: and a tiny body, And you're riding the big diploma
Speaker 3: like it's the magic carpet your future.
Speaker 1: It's such a good line.
Speaker 3: You don't appreciate anything, man, and again he shoves him
Speaker 3: quite forcefully. Sean yells back, it's a crappy picture and
Speaker 3: pushes Jack all the way onto the couch. I hate it.
Speaker 3: They start fighting as Jack tries to reason with him,
Speaker 3: don't you see you will never go to high school ever? Again,
Speaker 3: Sean sarcastically shouts, yeah, hooray. They continue to scrap, and
Speaker 3: Jack says, through gritted teeth, I'm just trying to put
Speaker 3: you in touch with your feelings. Sean responds, while being choked. No,
Speaker 3: you're trying to put me in touch with your feelings.
Speaker 3: And you guys, with your physical comedy with this is
Speaker 3: so well done.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 3: Didn't really funny, really well done? You remember it all?
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I remember the other one where but
Speaker 1: oh we did this wrestling thing again? But yeah, no,
Speaker 1: it works, it works.
Speaker 3: Looks really good. He pushes his older brother off of him,
Speaker 3: and Jack is confused. Why do we always end up wrestling?
Speaker 3: Sean eventually says, I think it's how we communicate. Jack nods, yeah,
Speaker 3: well I have something else to say. He immediately pounces
Speaker 3: on Seawan and they continue to wrestle. Just then Eric
Speaker 3: walks out of his room in an all black Navy
Speaker 3: steal outfit, fullar with a grappling hook and some other
Speaker 3: cool gadgets. He he thinks he's retiring. I'm gonna stop him.
Speaker 3: I don't know how, but I am. He finds Jack
Speaker 3: and Sean on the floor, still trying to choke each
Speaker 3: other out. Maybe I'll ask the French for help or
Speaker 3: the Belgians. They're not doing anything.
Speaker 2: They're not doing anything.
Speaker 3: Eric places a pair of night goggles over his eyes
Speaker 3: and tells the boys, you babies, stop fighting. Eric struggles
Speaker 3: to make his way out the door, getting his hook
Speaker 3: stuck in the doorframe.
Speaker 2: Finally I lived. You can see Matt laughing sticking the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so fun. Finally, like this is where Eric's gonna
Speaker 1: live for the rest of him. Ye this episode, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we are just launching because I feel like Eric often
Speaker 1: goes zany, but he up until now I has he
Speaker 1: initiated the zany plot like this only this whole situation
Speaker 1: only exists because Eric is going like crazy, right, like
Speaker 1: that's your whole storyline. It's like, I'm gonna navy seal
Speaker 1: my way out of you know, getting Feennie to stop retiring.
Speaker 1: And it's like and then I was thinking about the
Speaker 1: sneak attacks stuff like we keep doing we do this
Speaker 1: from now on. I feel like it just this, give
Speaker 1: Will a costume and let him go crazy pretty much.
Speaker 2: Like that's accurate.
Speaker 3: Sean and Jack have been staring at this insanity and
Speaker 3: utter confusion. Then they go back to their wrestling match,
Speaker 3: and then we're back at John Adams High. In the hallway,
Speaker 3: we see wild chickens on the floor, congregating around the
Speaker 3: trash can, probably because the hands have placed seed right.
Speaker 3: Corey and Sean enter, and Corey is very excited by
Speaker 3: the livestock. Great chickens in the hallway. Huh. Someone must
Speaker 3: have let them lose is the official senior break. He
Speaker 3: runs around the hallway, pretending to flock his wings like
Speaker 3: a chicken, screaming, oh my gosh, look at the chickens.
Speaker 3: He runs up to a random classmate and shakes him
Speaker 3: chicken alert. Yeah. He has entered a euphoria, surrounded by
Speaker 3: much less enthused classmates. I wonder which crazy senior thought
Speaker 3: this up. This is nuts. Huh. Then Feenie walks in
Speaker 3: and notices the chickens, barely giving them a passing glance.
Speaker 3: He curiously asks Cory, what did you do rent a
Speaker 3: couple of chickens? Corey nuts? Yeah, don't step on them
Speaker 3: or else I lose my deposit. As he bolts away,
Speaker 3: he continues to scream together the.
Speaker 2: Hands go, it's just so Ben and so Cory so good. Uh.
Speaker 3: Sean walks up to Poenians lely admits if I were
Speaker 3: into this, which I'm not. I'd do a senior prank
Speaker 3: that you'd remember. Phoene chuckles, I'm sure you would. He
Speaker 3: then asks Sean if he's working on that final class assignment.
Speaker 3: Sean pretends to be excited, Oh yeah, the assignment. The
Speaker 3: fake excitement quickly fades. No, I'm not. Corey jumps back
Speaker 3: into the hallway, frantically screaming at the top of his
Speaker 3: lungs about the chickens. Again, Phoene advises Sean, I really
Speaker 3: think you should. Sean asks if it's mandatory, and Phoenie emphasizes,
Speaker 3: what you end up doing is up to you, always
Speaker 3: has been. I'm just here to point out what page
Speaker 3: we're on. Phoene leaves and Corey groc's backup. I know,
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: We're not what page we're on. I was like, that's cool.
Speaker 3: It's a beautiful line, and it really does highlight how
Speaker 3: so many things in this show, when with with really
Speaker 3: good guidance from the adults, have ultimately been left up
Speaker 3: to the kids to make their own decision.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: There's rarely been a you, you have to do this,
Speaker 1: this is the right thing. It's always like, here's the door,
Speaker 1: and here's another door. What are you going to do? Well?
Speaker 3: But but not just here are the two doors, here's
Speaker 3: the door I think is best for you and why.
Speaker 3: But ultimately you have to be the one to make
Speaker 3: the final decision about which door you're going to go through.
Speaker 3: And and I think one of the things that Boy
Speaker 3: Meets World did better than almost any other show is
Speaker 3: that the guidance coming from the adults was always so good,
Speaker 3: even when there were good arguments on both sides. You know,
Speaker 3: sometimes it's it's truly set up that there isn't necessarily
Speaker 3: one right path. They're both good, and you just have
Speaker 3: to be the one to listen to your gut and
Speaker 3: and and say which one you're going to go toward.
Speaker 3: They nobody, nobody was the dumb, stupid parent or the
Speaker 3: the you know.
Speaker 4: Uh, bumbling teacher or any of that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: And it's also I mean, we saw it with huge
Speaker 2: decisions too.
Speaker 4: I mean Amy and Allen literally walk into a hotel room,
Speaker 4: leaving Corey into hang it to decide whether they're going
Speaker 4: to go have sex in another room.
Speaker 2: Yes, And it's not like.
Speaker 4: Get home, it's just like, hey, you're here's the consequences
Speaker 4: you're ready.
Speaker 2: See you guys stup to you and it's yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure a lot of other shows, because I
Speaker 4: never call it a kid show geared towards younger people,
Speaker 4: would would do it to that extent.
Speaker 1: Contextualizing the importance of Yale probably would have would have
Speaker 1: been good in a.
Speaker 4: Little bit at the end of the duh, like come on,
Speaker 4: like I know behind. So unless you have a great
Speaker 4: reason not to go, you gotta go.
Speaker 3: I'm not even sure what that point was though, unless
Speaker 3: you have a good reason not to go, well.
Speaker 4: I think it's you know there there might be better
Speaker 4: reasons to not go, and unless you can come up
Speaker 4: with one of those, which there might be two in
Speaker 4: the world.
Speaker 1: So are you and Corey going to break up if
Speaker 1: you go to Yale? Like that seems sad to me.
Speaker 1: If you believe that you're in love and that your
Speaker 1: love is so powerful, it's not going to be effected.
Speaker 3: The idea now that my good reason for not going
Speaker 3: to Yale is because we're going to be engaged. And
Speaker 3: if we're engaged, why doesn't Corey just move to Yale
Speaker 3: with me?
Speaker 1: Right? You should?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you should get her go to school somewhere in
Speaker 4: Connecticut near Yale. That's not that difficult a thing to.
Speaker 1: Do or commit to being engaged, because that's the decision
Speaker 1: you want to make and get married but still go
Speaker 1: to Yale. Right, but you can these things are not.
Speaker 2: Actually opposition, you know exactly now, you know.
Speaker 1: It's like you can be in love and not have
Speaker 1: to sacrifice to that.
Speaker 3: CRY's future and Penbrook is not more important or shouldn't
Speaker 3: be more important than to Penga's future and going to Yale.
Speaker 3: So why is it never even in the cards? And
Speaker 3: maybe it is maybe next season when we get the
Speaker 3: answer when Corey answers, maybe is there a conversation about
Speaker 3: Corey going to Yale and we talk? I don't know,
Speaker 3: maybe there will be. But up until this point, how
Speaker 3: come it's never even been a discussion. How Come it's
Speaker 3: never been a discussion between Hocme, between Corey and Sean
Speaker 3: hokem Hocome. Corey and Sean haven't had that discussion. Hocome
Speaker 3: to Penga and Angela, who, by the way, are probably
Speaker 3: never going to talk it. How come they don't have
Speaker 3: a discussion about any of that. It's so there seems
Speaker 3: like there's so many options for this to not that
Speaker 3: that are just never even.
Speaker 4: If they were, and what they should have done. And again,
Speaker 4: because it's really it's just a word. They're just throwing
Speaker 4: out Yale because people know what it is. So what
Speaker 4: they should have done is something like Cambridge or Oxford,
Speaker 4: where like she would have.
Speaker 2: To move to London, something where it's a.
Speaker 1: Very big yes, exactly, Stanford in California, ride exactly, something
Speaker 1: where it's it's massively different.
Speaker 4: But no, it's like you can't go to school four
Speaker 4: hours from here, like what really? Right? So, yeah, that
Speaker 4: I was hoping they were gonna they should have done
Speaker 4: something much bigger. Oh I applied to this or bond,
Speaker 4: but there was no way I was going to get
Speaker 4: in and they you know, right, yeah, so but.
Speaker 1: No, and then you could have specified why that school?
Speaker 1: You know, right now it's just Yale for generic good schoolness.
Speaker 1: But like if the panga had an interest in art
Speaker 1: or you know, some subject that could only be done
Speaker 1: in this one far away place, it would make so
Speaker 1: much more sense.
Speaker 2: I think she's following Ricky's Paris.
Speaker 4: I just want to meet you in Paris so we
Speaker 4: can look at each other in.
Speaker 2: Food Croissan cosso count the lamination toga you.
Speaker 3: Pene leaves, and Corey rushes back up to Sean again
Speaker 3: yelling about chicken mania. Topanga joins the boys and announces
Speaker 3: she's finished her valedictorian speech and wants to know if
Speaker 3: they'd like to hear it. Sean shakes his head and
Speaker 3: walks away. To be honest, I don't either, no.
Speaker 2: Things, We're god, it's fine.
Speaker 3: The camera bands to reveal Mincas standing by the payphone
Speaker 3: yet again. He is interested to know more. Oh and
Speaker 3: what makes you so sure you're the class valedictorian, little
Speaker 3: missy Tepega confidently responds, because I'm Tapanga. Minka shoots back, well,
Speaker 3: I'm Mincus and I have six hundred and ninety nine a's, which,
Speaker 3: according to my records, is the same as you. Corey
Speaker 3: is astounded you counted a what kind of six psychopath
Speaker 3: counts as Corey looks at the Panga and realizes, Oh, yeah.
Speaker 1: Wasn't he there.
Speaker 3: He was there, he saw the whole thing, He saw it,
Speaker 3: he watched it.
Speaker 4: I didn't get that, but this scene between the two
Speaker 4: of you did make me just wish I.
Speaker 2: Could have watched four other seasons.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, of Lee, of Minkis and Joey and
Speaker 4: and Joey and.
Speaker 3: Frank guess somebody by the way to actually goes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it would have just made me wish for what
Speaker 4: could have been when I saw this scene.
Speaker 3: So Tapanga has an idea. I'll tell you what to do, Stuart.
Speaker 3: You can go get Phoene's grade book and count them again.
Speaker 3: With that, she struts away man kiss now alone with
Speaker 3: Corey is worried. It also would have been nice to
Speaker 3: see Danny here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Yeah, Danny and
Speaker 4: and miss and why couldn't you couldn't have Turner and
Speaker 4: Eli sitting at the graduation, Like would that have been.
Speaker 2: The worst thing in the world to have that? You know,
Speaker 2: it's a.
Speaker 3: Little insulting to invite them to be background actors, but.
Speaker 4: Give them a line each you know, walk in that
Speaker 4: we don't go over there, that's you know, you go.
Speaker 2: Also you may never come back.
Speaker 4: And then Turner and Eli come in and be like, hey,
Speaker 4: are you guys coming to class or what what's something
Speaker 4: I mean?
Speaker 1: But also there's this off camera moment or actually it
Speaker 1: is on camera where Sean makes a decision to do
Speaker 1: this speech right like where it's just me in the
Speaker 1: hallway kind of looking for lorn. That could have been
Speaker 1: a scene with Jonathan Turner, Like it could have easily
Speaker 1: been me in a different location finding him because now
Speaker 1: he's left the school or whatever, and me just having
Speaker 1: a conversation with him where he's like, what do you
Speaker 1: think of this time? Or you know, don't you think
Speaker 1: that this is important? And like, you're right, maybe it is?
Speaker 1: And right. It would have just been like a good
Speaker 1: like I find him in some apartment somewhere where he's
Speaker 1: moved on to a different school or now he's teaching
Speaker 1: college courses somewhere, and he's like and we explain why
Speaker 1: he's and I connect with him and he inspires me
Speaker 1: to come back and do the speech. It would have
Speaker 1: been so good.
Speaker 4: Oh god, they really could have gone more. But you've
Speaker 4: gone back and he's still in the hospital in the focast,
Speaker 4: he's still in tracks cold the whole time.
Speaker 1: Just visiting Turner in a wheelchair.
Speaker 2: Oh god, Oh it's horrible.
Speaker 3: Minkus, now alone with Corey, is worried she did something,
Speaker 3: didn't she. Corey pats him on the back, telling him
Speaker 3: to take it easy. He never had a chance Minka
Speaker 3: says she's evil, Corey, She's an evil little girl. Corey agrees,
Speaker 3: but every time I kiss her, I don't care. He
Speaker 3: strolls back up to his girlfriend. Tapanga tells him she
Speaker 3: read the material on Yelle that he gave her, and
Speaker 3: earnestly asks him, when you said you were serious about
Speaker 3: being supportive. You weren't saying that just to be supportive,
Speaker 3: were you. Corey reminds her Yale is one of the
Speaker 3: best schools in the country, and you deserve to go there.
Speaker 3: To Panga admits I always tried to be a good
Speaker 3: student because I thought college would be the most important
Speaker 3: decision in my life. Corey exclaims, it is what could
Speaker 3: be more important to Pango listens, Obviously conflicted, Corey reassures her,
Speaker 3: I'm okay with this. To Panga asks really, Corey notds
Speaker 3: yeah go. A wide grin spreads across her face. Thank you.
Speaker 3: She walks away, and melancholic music plays as Corey watch
Speaker 3: is or Go. He sits down in the middle of
Speaker 3: the hallway, now with the chickens huddled around him. He asks,
Speaker 3: you guys gonna leave me too?
Speaker 4: So we're sitting there watching the scene and all this
Speaker 4: beautiful stuff just happens. You know, it's you should go
Speaker 4: to Yale and do all this stuff. And there's dead
Speaker 4: silence when the scene ends, and Sue just says, how
Speaker 4: do you think they got the chickens to just sit there?
Speaker 2: Seed?
Speaker 4: But I also love the fact that Tapanga hasn't done
Speaker 4: any research on Yale. Nope, so Corey hands stuff you
Speaker 4: should do. Hey, I look some stuff up about it.
Speaker 3: Man explained Yale to you exactly.
Speaker 2: This is a good school.
Speaker 3: I guess maybe, and maybe we address this at the
Speaker 3: beginning of the next season. I don't know, but I
Speaker 3: guess it's hitting me as I'm reading the recap and
Speaker 3: thinking about when I watched it. Is the idea here
Speaker 3: that Tapanga now solidifies her decision about Corey because one
Speaker 3: of the traits that she wants in him is that
Speaker 3: he's supportive. That one of the reasons she feels very
Speaker 3: comfortable turning down Yale is because to lead, he fully
Speaker 3: supports me best for him and so right, and so
Speaker 3: I am sure that's the type of man I want
Speaker 3: to marry, a person who's willing to sacrifice his own good.
Speaker 1: So therefore I'm going to sacrifice my own good friend.
Speaker 3: Right, so I'm going to do the same thing for him,
Speaker 3: even though it's revealed behind the scenes that he wasn't
Speaker 3: serious about it at all.
Speaker 1: And also, what is he sacrificing, Like he's still going
Speaker 1: to Pemberkeca, He's you know.
Speaker 2: He's sacrificing to Panga. That's what That's what they're trying
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: In the vein of supporting her towards in the name
Speaker 1: of their relationship, where she's sacrificing actual opportunity and growth
Speaker 1: outside of the relationship for the relationship. So that's like
Speaker 1: a very weird equivalency. Like they're actually two completely opposite directions.
Speaker 1: Like t Bank is basically saying I'm going to hurt
Speaker 1: myself in my future chances or I'm going to diminish
Speaker 1: my future for you. Cory's not saying that. He's saying,
Speaker 1: I'll sacrifice by you know, letting you go and like
Speaker 1: supporting you.
Speaker 3: That's and having that be a little harder for me, right,
Speaker 3: It's so hard being me. Yeah, I might have to
Speaker 3: travel to see you or yeah, really the hard part.
Speaker 3: The hardest part is I can't get like I'm not
Speaker 3: making out with a million girls while you're well that's.
Speaker 4: Well, that's the he would have cheated on you by
Speaker 4: the end of graduation. Let's be honest, that's really.
Speaker 1: Why she didn't go to Ye gotta button this relationship up,
Speaker 1: otherwise he's out of here. Yep.
Speaker 3: Well then we are in the John Adams Hallway. Continuing,
Speaker 3: Cory is staring out into the distance, angry and upset.
Speaker 3: Sean spots him and doesn't even need to ask. Corey
Speaker 3: breaks the news, Japang is going to Yale. Sean siys,
Speaker 3: I told you this is going to be a terrible week.
Speaker 3: Corey's angry with himself for acting so supportive. Sean asks,
Speaker 3: so you were just pretending. Corey admits he didn't actually
Speaker 3: think she'd go through with it. Sean encourages him to
Speaker 3: tell her how he really feels. Corey insists, I can't.
Speaker 3: I don't want her making the wrong choice because of me.
Speaker 3: Sean questions, and you're not pretending this time? Corey shakes
Speaker 3: his head. No, I'm not so, so what are they saying? So?
Speaker 3: So he was pretending before, but now he isn't pretending,
Speaker 3: and he does want her to go.
Speaker 4: He doesn't want her to go, but he genuinely now
Speaker 4: has gotten to the place where he understands she should,
Speaker 4: I think is what they're getting at.
Speaker 2: But it's not really said right.
Speaker 1: Which is now it's real Corey really really does support her,
Speaker 1: and it's all about his sadness. Well, we just got
Speaker 1: to make it about Corey, you know. So Panga's decision
Speaker 1: is ultimately about Corey.
Speaker 3: So now we are in Phoene's office. Phoene is packing
Speaker 3: his things into boxes with when Topanga enters. I think
Speaker 3: this is the very first yes to Pega and PHIENI
Speaker 3: the same scene alone.
Speaker 4: And it's a great scene, the two of them together.
Speaker 4: The energy's amazing. They should have done a bunch of these.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So she was in the library and she saw
Speaker 3: his light was on. What are you still doing here?
Speaker 3: Phoene explains, I'm just packing up a few things. What
Speaker 3: on earth are you doing in the library? Topanga admits,
Speaker 3: I was working on my valedictorian speech. Phoene assures her,
Speaker 3: your speech will be fine. Give yourself a break to
Speaker 3: penga size. Now that I'm going to Yale, everyone's going
Speaker 3: to expect it to be like from someone who's going
Speaker 3: to Yale. Fine's not going to be enough. Phoene sees
Speaker 3: right through her. What did you actually come here to
Speaker 3: ask me to? Panga admits, I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3: Should I go to Yale? Phoene responds, if you're asking
Speaker 3: me if Yale is one of the finest academic institutions
Speaker 3: in the country, I would have to say no. Tapega
Speaker 3: shakes her head. That's not why I'm asking. Phoene tries again,
Speaker 3: if you're asking me whether or not you would be
Speaker 3: successful there, Yale wouldn't have accepted you if they didn't
Speaker 3: think you could live up to their challenge to Pega
Speaker 3: again explains, that's not why I'm asking. Phoene gives up.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. I'll retire right now. They share
Speaker 3: a laugh, and then he cuts to the chase, what
Speaker 3: do you want to? Pega explains, If I knew what
Speaker 3: I wanted, I wouldn't have come to you. Phoene tells
Speaker 3: her to listen very carefully. Unless she has a very
Speaker 3: good reason for not attending Yale, she should go to.
Speaker 3: Pega smiles, thanks, mister Phoenie, He assures her, if you
Speaker 3: need any more counseling, my door is always open to
Speaker 3: my students. I don't really quite understand what he I'm
Speaker 3: trying to think, what was he thinking. Do we believe
Speaker 3: Phoene was trying to guide to Panga toward proposing.
Speaker 1: No, I think he's just basically presenting the options and saying,
Speaker 1: you know, what is your what is the alternative to
Speaker 1: going to Yale? And is you have to decide if
Speaker 1: that alternative is better? You know, it's it's the It's
Speaker 1: the exact same scene as the jelly beans, right. It's
Speaker 1: like it's like, oh, there's all these reasons and all this,
Speaker 1: but then ultimately love just conquers all and it's like, Nope,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. I can't live without Corey or I
Speaker 1: can't you know, it doesn't. But it just doesn't seem
Speaker 1: like an equivalent.
Speaker 2: It's just equivalent at all. I don't think he's saying,
Speaker 2: and you know, go get engaged to Corey. Yeah.
Speaker 3: No, you don't think that's on his radar at all.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think, so. I gotta hope that's not.
Speaker 1: What I mean. If that's yeah, I just this is
Speaker 1: where I go, like, Okay, I know, like and we've
Speaker 1: already talked about how it's nice that the teachers and
Speaker 1: the adults don't like weigh in too much or let
Speaker 1: the kids make but this is when it's time to
Speaker 1: like really contextualize. This is the responsible adult thing is
Speaker 1: to be like, hey, I know you're in love, and
Speaker 1: I know that that's really important to you. But if
Speaker 1: it's real love, yes, you don't need They'll still be
Speaker 1: there Like yeah, I mean, I would never never advise
Speaker 1: to eighteen year olds to make a decision about college
Speaker 1: based on each other. I would never advise that no
Speaker 1: matter who you are, no matter what schools you're contemplating,
Speaker 1: I would always no matter the history of the relationship,
Speaker 1: I would always say, you know what, at this age,
Speaker 1: at eighteen, you don't know, like that's just the reality,
Speaker 1: Like you feel these things and it's really important, and
Speaker 1: like maybe this relationship will last forever, but you probably
Speaker 1: shouldn't make decisions based on each and you know because
Speaker 1: at that age, what do you like, it's hard to
Speaker 1: plan ahead, Like it's hard to think of like you
Speaker 1: don't want to do the kind of work, or like
Speaker 1: it's all you know, so you need adults to say
Speaker 1: to you, Hey, plant seeds now that are going to
Speaker 1: pay off later, and the seeds that are probably going
Speaker 1: to pay off more. Is a great degree from this
Speaker 1: amazing school, like that's probably going to pay off more
Speaker 1: than what planting the marriage seed like that may also
Speaker 1: pay off. But why is it, you know, why are
Speaker 1: they even in opposition rightever? But exactly, I just but
Speaker 1: I would never even yeah, I mean, I can't think
Speaker 1: of a single relationship I knew where they made the
Speaker 1: decision to go to college based on each other. There
Speaker 1: where they stay together, yes, or you know like that
Speaker 1: never people you know decide to apply the same school and.
Speaker 3: See me to ask her what what would be a
Speaker 3: good reason for not going, and for her to say,
Speaker 3: I don't want to be away from Corey and to
Speaker 3: have another adult say then Corey can go with you
Speaker 3: even like which still wouldn't be the best advice, because
Speaker 3: it should be you guys can should go to the
Speaker 3: colleges you're going to, and you know whatever, But even
Speaker 3: just to hear it be said that, like you, you
Speaker 3: can still prioritize yourself. It doesn't have to be you
Speaker 3: sacrificing yourself. Someone else could sacrifice, or neither of you sacrifice.
Speaker 3: You both sacrifice by having to travel back and forth.
Speaker 3: But we never even get to have that conversation because
Speaker 3: it is so hands off. We need to get to
Speaker 3: this cliffhanger.
Speaker 4: I know, but I would love to if it's something
Speaker 4: along the lines of if you love something, said it free,
Speaker 4: you know that's it's there's a reason.
Speaker 2: It's an old adage, so you know it's yeah, so yeah.
Speaker 3: And that's when a grappling hook shoots into his open window.
Speaker 3: Phoenie and to Panga are startled when Navy seal Eric
Speaker 3: appears and climbs through the windowsill. Eric removes his goggles
Speaker 3: and commands, Phoenie, you're not retiring. You're not going anywhere.
Speaker 3: Phoeni notes, however, I must learn to close my window.
Speaker 2: Did you see her tight? The thing is like my
Speaker 2: face is just this little squish whish. You're not going anywhere, Phoenie.
Speaker 3: It adds to the funny, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: It does.
Speaker 3: Eric demands, you are going to live in that house
Speaker 3: next to my parents until you die or until I die,
Speaker 3: whichever one comes first, although it probably be you because
Speaker 3: you're like, what eighty, This dark humor is very funny.
Speaker 3: Phoenie yells at him get out. Eric immediately responds okay.
Speaker 3: He gives Topanga a quick high before leaving.
Speaker 2: It's Eric Hotchega.
Speaker 3: Eric makes his way out the window while attempting to
Speaker 3: get his gear in order, and that's when he falls
Speaker 3: off the windowsill and screams. On the way down. Phoene
Speaker 3: shakes his head in disbelief and Will, You're exactly right.
Speaker 3: I think Bill put his head down and covered his
Speaker 3: face because he was actually laughing.
Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it because I know I ad lib
Speaker 4: that and I just did it one take and when
Speaker 4: I actually because I'm not sure I probably saw it
Speaker 4: when it came out, but watching it again last night, I.
Speaker 1: Was like, oh my god, and you do that because
Speaker 1: that's only like two feet off the ground, so you
Speaker 1: had to like pretend to fall and then duck.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like basically flat you can see.
Speaker 1: I love that scream that you give. That is like
Speaker 1: the ultimate, But no, can you do it?
Speaker 4: Will?
Speaker 2: It's like I don't even remember what I did there.
Speaker 1: It is, Yeah, you just know the tone that like says,
Speaker 1: this isn't a real scream, this is a comedy scream.
Speaker 1: It's okay to laugh at my predicament. It's like it's
Speaker 1: a very you know, it's a fine it's a fine point. Yes,
Speaker 1: but like it makes it okay, you know, like it's
Speaker 1: so funny.
Speaker 2: I loved that. I remember doing that scene with him
Speaker 2: is just every time working with Bill was just the best.
Speaker 1: Really. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, then we're in Phoene's classroom. Phoene's at his desk
Speaker 3: addressing the seniors for the last time. The bell is
Speaker 3: about to ring. In a few minutes, you'll be flying
Speaker 3: out of here like your pants were on fire. But
Speaker 3: since this is our last class together, I just want
Speaker 3: to say. And then the school bell rings and almost
Speaker 3: every student runs out before their teacher can finish his speech,
Speaker 3: except the stars of the show, the.
Speaker 4: Three characters Angela's god Angela bolted.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it was weird to see this. It was like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is the final scene of the show. You know,
Speaker 1: it's basically, Oh, it's a dress rehearsal for the goodbye
Speaker 1: that we have at the end. I never remembered this
Speaker 1: that we'd already kind of done it right where it's
Speaker 1: like basically tell us about you know, yeahbye.
Speaker 2: We had to have known by this point we were
Speaker 2: picked up, right, I mean we.
Speaker 1: Had to oft yeah, to leave it on a cliffhanger.
Speaker 1: I feel that.
Speaker 4: Big a cliffhanger. Whether or not they're going to get married,
Speaker 4: there's no way they story.
Speaker 1: The story that Michael always tells is that they put
Speaker 1: it to the internet right right, whether they should get
Speaker 1: married or not. Was that during this season or was
Speaker 1: that next season?
Speaker 3: It's after this episode airs?
Speaker 1: It is it after?
Speaker 2: They wouldn't want to ruin They didn't want to ruin
Speaker 2: the surprise.
Speaker 3: It was. I think they had it ready to go
Speaker 3: the website, so that during this summer while everyone was
Speaker 3: wondering what's going to be the answer, it was do
Speaker 3: a poll.
Speaker 1: But Michael presents it as the network didn't want them
Speaker 1: to get married?
Speaker 3: Correct what he wanted his answer to He.
Speaker 1: Was pushing back and saying, no, the audience is going
Speaker 1: to want this.
Speaker 4: Did either of you ever go look at the website?
Speaker 4: I didn't know there was website till years later. Did
Speaker 4: anybody actually go on and check it out?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: I'm not one hundred percent sure of the veracity of
Speaker 1: this entire story.
Speaker 3: Oh it did. It did exist. The website did exist.
Speaker 3: We've gotten many letters from people who u and people
Speaker 3: have recently founded on Time capsule. It still exists. Okay,
Speaker 3: so that is true, and I don't remember it.
Speaker 2: I didn't remember see it.
Speaker 3: I remember seeing it back in the day when it did. Yes,
Speaker 3: I did see it. They had a big it was
Speaker 3: a real fancy website too, for the wedding, announcing the wedding,
Speaker 3: and the bite was on it and the date.
Speaker 4: I don't think I went online into like two thousand
Speaker 4: and eight for like the first time ever.
Speaker 2: This is amazing.
Speaker 3: Yeah to Pega, Corey and Sean Stacey did. Phoene admits,
Speaker 3: usually I time it better than that. He reminds the
Speaker 3: three students that the bell rang, and he gives them
Speaker 3: a little wave goodbye. Corey says, we want to hear
Speaker 3: what you have to say. To Panga nods, We've got time.
Speaker 3: Phoene surprised, Oh well, I was just going to say
Speaker 3: good luck. The truth is I'm not very good at
Speaker 3: saying goodbye. And you know who else is not very
Speaker 3: good at saying goodbye? Are Wesley Staples? Oh yes, yeah,
Speaker 3: he really isn't. He doesn't like it. He gets very
Speaker 3: he always will sneak out. He is. This is a
Speaker 3: very taken directly from Wesley Staples. It's very hard for
Speaker 3: him to say goodbye. So this it makes me tiery
Speaker 3: thinking about it, because I've had exactly this moment with Wesley,
Speaker 3: like Wesley, where did you go? And he's just said,
Speaker 3: it's too much for me. I can't do it. It's just
Speaker 3: too much. The audience lets out a big all, and Feenie,
Speaker 3: who's been nervously fiddling with his hands, asks the three stragglers.
Speaker 3: We're not gonna get all sappy, are we. Tapega breaks
Speaker 3: the tension. We want to know if your decision to
Speaker 3: retire had anything to do with us. Corey admits, we
Speaker 3: know we haven't made life that easy for you these
Speaker 3: past couple of years, and Sean adds, I mean when
Speaker 3: you think about all the stupid stuff we pulled. Corey concludes,
Speaker 3: you have to be leaving because of us. Peene nods, well,
Speaker 3: I am, but not because of what you've done to me.
Speaker 3: It's what you've done for me. Sean shakes his head.
Speaker 3: We haven't done anything for you. Phoene disagrees. You three
Speaker 3: have given me more gratification in the past four years
Speaker 3: than I ever dreamed possible. You must know that, Corey
Speaker 3: reminds him, but you always complained about how difficult we are.
Speaker 3: Feeney admits, well, you are. But sometimes the things you
Speaker 3: complain about most are the things you care the most about.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately we don't always know that until it's too late.
Speaker 3: He asks Sean, by the way, how's that paper coming on?
Speaker 3: Stares up at Feenie, his eyes watery. Great phoene scene,
Speaker 3: Such a beautiful scene.
Speaker 4: Great Phoenie scene. Just it's so comforting to see again.
Speaker 4: It really is just him in front of the classroom teaching.
Speaker 2: It's I love it.
Speaker 1: We also just resisting emotion, right than watching somebody who
Speaker 1: you like. You just want Phoenie to say I love you,
Speaker 1: I'm going to miss you and do it. But he's
Speaker 1: not doing good.
Speaker 3: You know what it all means. That is great. And
Speaker 3: then we're in John Adams Outside in the hallway, a
Speaker 3: pensive Sean is sitting on the steps, looking around at
Speaker 3: the school he's known for so long. We hear applause
Speaker 3: in the distance, which totally through.
Speaker 1: I know through me too. I was like, why are
Speaker 1: we applauding?
Speaker 3: Then we fade into the graduation ceremony. Feeneye welcomes everyone
Speaker 3: to the graduation ceremony for the class of nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 3: We see Alan, Amy Morgan and Jacker in the audience,
Speaker 3: and we also see our real life set teachers on stage,
Speaker 3: Wesley Staples, the very missed David Combs, and the third
Speaker 3: teacher next to David is Miriam Richards. It was Matthew
Speaker 3: Lawrence's teacher. Yep, do we you guys remember what it
Speaker 3: was like having them in the scene. I remember knowing
Speaker 3: they were going to be a part of it and
Speaker 3: it being very meaningful and feeling really good that they
Speaker 3: were there.
Speaker 4: It was cool because that's I got to drape myself
Speaker 4: across them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was the fun part. I remember them
Speaker 2: all like, we could just push you off, we could
Speaker 2: push all the wage right now.
Speaker 3: Very good actors. They they're very present, present, They're great.
Speaker 3: So Phoene shouts, congratulations, we did it. The students hoot
Speaker 3: and holler. Phoene says, it's time to introduce the valedictorian,
Speaker 3: a student who exemplifies academic excellence as well as extracurricular achievement.
Speaker 3: What's her extra curriculs achievement? Hanging out with.
Speaker 4: Corey, hanging out with court Virginity and you're part of
Speaker 4: the Virginity club, right, okay?
Speaker 3: And social conscience?
Speaker 1: Did this? Did this set design really bumped me.
Speaker 3: I mean, the fact that there are more students on
Speaker 3: stage graduating than there are people in the audience.
Speaker 1: Watching, just and every shot of the audience watching is
Speaker 1: so awkward, like and it's just like going from left
Speaker 1: to it just doesn't It's like the camera's too close
Speaker 1: to each side and you never get the whole room.
Speaker 1: Like it's just it's I don't know why we couldn't
Speaker 1: figure this out a little bit better, Like, come on,
Speaker 1: let's let's either just do the whole audience separate, like
Speaker 1: on a different set, you know, and shoot because I
Speaker 1: but trying to like have it side by side with
Speaker 1: the podium like in the middle of a triangle shape
Speaker 1: is just I don't know. Man.
Speaker 4: This is also our last Alan Myerson episode ever because
Speaker 4: he was only there for season five. Right.
Speaker 2: Did he say goodbye to us at the end of.
Speaker 4: This episode, like literally walked down the line and said
Speaker 4: goodbye to us, and then.
Speaker 2: That was goodbye. He stopped at me.
Speaker 4: Well, no, he said some very nice things to me,
Speaker 4: and I think some nice things to Rider and then
Speaker 4: some other people's.
Speaker 1: He gave me two bags of tapes too, like like
Speaker 1: shopping bags full of mixtapes and jazz tapes that he
Speaker 1: had given me. He was really trying to get me
Speaker 1: into jazz.
Speaker 4: It was one of my first didn't work did. He
Speaker 4: just told me, it's like you gotta we got to
Speaker 4: do a movie together because I was like, I'd love to.
Speaker 4: He's like, great, then you would go on to the
Speaker 4: next person. Yeah bye, yeah, but like he was over
Speaker 4: it by the by.
Speaker 3: This point, I think Minkus pops up and bitterly explains
Speaker 3: she got one more lousy a than I did. He's
Speaker 3: pulled back down to his seat and Feenie introduces miss
Speaker 3: to Panga Lawrence. She smiles at Corey as she approaches
Speaker 3: the podium, and the audience applauds. Sean is clapping, but
Speaker 3: he notices Corey isn't Corey is.
Speaker 1: With my clapping, oh, because it's all fake everybody around
Speaker 1: I know. But I'm like, I'm on care it's so awful,
Speaker 1: Like it looks so weird.
Speaker 2: I'm like everybody talking all the time.
Speaker 3: I will say, I did not notice.
Speaker 1: Everybody like what you were just doing will is better
Speaker 1: because it was faster, like I'm doing like this slow Like.
Speaker 2: There's like, what are you doing?
Speaker 3: Corey explains, I can't. The closer we get to graduating,
Speaker 3: the closer she gets to Yale on the mic, Topega
Speaker 3: thanks mister Feenie and greets her classmates. I worked very
Speaker 3: hard on the speech. However, I'm not going to give it.
Speaker 3: And then we get a very sitcomments cutaway to audience members,
Speaker 3: gasping because I know somebody who could give a much
Speaker 3: better speech than I ever could. Ladies and gentlemen, I.
Speaker 1: Don't why does Topanga sacrifice for Sean.
Speaker 3: It doesn't, especially because this isn't a message to everyone,
Speaker 3: It's a message to Angela, Topanga, Corey and Feenie.
Speaker 1: So yeah, but it's also like, why does she believe
Speaker 1: that Sean is going to have a better speech than her,
Speaker 1: because you're.
Speaker 3: Can assume that. Again, a thing we did not see
Speaker 3: on camera but is only alluded to here is because
Speaker 3: Sean and Topanga have spoken.
Speaker 2: And they read because he said I read her speech,
Speaker 2: and I.
Speaker 3: Read her speech exactly, so we have communicated. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: you maybe have asked me, I have real I would
Speaker 3: like to give the speech. It's gonna be my final paper,
Speaker 3: and I have said, yes, you deserve.
Speaker 4: You graduated with a one point too. You barely got out.
Speaker 4: You're right, take the Valedictoria.
Speaker 3: Take the valedictorian speech.
Speaker 1: Isol be your girlfriend. You got kidnapped by those other girls.
Speaker 1: You your experience, read the one that you are the
Speaker 1: one that But that's what I'm like, Okay, I guess
Speaker 1: even in this off camera Scete'm imagining she read Sewan's
Speaker 1: paper and was like, this is a better speech to
Speaker 1: what I would say. Well, and that's where I'm like,
Speaker 1: what does Sean say?
Speaker 3: That's really no, I'll be honest, it's not better, But
Speaker 3: I'm going to go out on a limb and say
Speaker 3: to Panga doesn't actually read his speech. She shows her
Speaker 3: speech to Sean, and Sean says, I have something i
Speaker 3: I'd like to share.
Speaker 1: Can you step aside?
Speaker 3: Step aside for me and Topanga Without even saying we'll
Speaker 3: let me compare, because Topanga wouldn't do that, she just says,
Speaker 3: I'm a woman. I automatically.
Speaker 2: Woman, I'm a woman, And before.
Speaker 3: You go, will you explain starry Night to me?
Speaker 1: Please?
Speaker 2: Pang is not yet, you can't do it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And it would have been such a wonderful wrap
Speaker 4: up for Tapanga to go from that Phoenie scene to
Speaker 4: then hearing her speech, you know, and that's kind of
Speaker 4: where I wanted it to go. And I forgot that
Speaker 4: Shawn's actually the one to give the speech.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, oh, I know, Oh, I just.
Speaker 1: Wish that Seawn's speech was such a slam dunk a message.
Speaker 1: It was like if Sean got up there and was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not supposed to be giving this speech, but i
Speaker 1: am because and then says something so poetic or so
Speaker 1: beautiful and like describes something that everybody can relate to
Speaker 1: in a way that you know, and like I'm not
Speaker 1: the valedictorian because of this, but I am this and
Speaker 1: this is what you are and that's an amazing you know,
Speaker 1: I've changed it. Like we like we talked about like
Speaker 1: I came from nothing. I came from a trailer park.
Speaker 1: I have nothing, And because of this school I'm now
Speaker 1: going to go on to because of.
Speaker 3: These people who believe these people myself and now I've
Speaker 3: gotten accepted into Penbrook and I'm not gonna make the
Speaker 3: same mistakes here. I'm gonna you know, do better there
Speaker 3: or whatever.
Speaker 1: Right, And also so this is a message to other people.
Speaker 1: Instead it just becomes a self indulgent, sentimental thing of
Speaker 1: like I could have done better. I'm so sad. I'm
Speaker 1: so sad, which is not motivating. No, No, it's just
Speaker 1: like whoa, that's intense, you know.
Speaker 2: Through like yeah I shouldn't. The writers just really really.
Speaker 1: Liked me doing the like also like that Sean. They
Speaker 1: just like Sean sad. They like like puppy dog sad Sean.
Speaker 1: And so it's like they just kind of wrote that
Speaker 1: and it's not this. I don't know, it's not as meaningful.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they he easily could have to Panga could
Speaker 4: have given the speech and then walked back and they
Speaker 4: still would have had the same ending that they had before.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's not well, we needed to Panga be
Speaker 2: sitting down.
Speaker 4: Well, ten things happened between them and the proposal, so
Speaker 4: she easily could have been back in her seat.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it doesn't This was strange to me.
Speaker 3: Ladies and gentlemen, My good friend Sean Hunter. Sean pulls
Speaker 3: a letter out of his gown and grins at Corey, Hey,
Speaker 3: you only go to high school. Once. He walks up
Speaker 3: to the podium and gives to Panga a big hug.
Speaker 3: He begins by thanking to Panga and revealing you know
Speaker 3: I read her speech. It kicked butt. He continues. I
Speaker 3: attended John Adams High School sporadically during the last four years.
Speaker 3: I barely have a C average. That's why I'm here,
Speaker 3: he explains it. When mister Feeney's very last assignment was
Speaker 3: to write about his feelings this week, his reaction was
Speaker 3: the same as always. I can't wait to get out
Speaker 3: of here. In the stands to Panga tells Corey, I
Speaker 3: know what I want to do with my life, but
Speaker 3: Corey shushes her. Shawn is speaking in public. This will
Speaker 3: never happen again in their lives. Sean continues, But now
Speaker 3: high school is over, and just when I'm finally free,
Speaker 3: I find myself sneaking back into this place and sitting
Speaker 3: in the hall thinking about my friends and all the
Speaker 3: time we spent there. He started thinking about mister Feenie too,
Speaker 3: because he always told them what to do. Without telling
Speaker 3: them what to do, You taught us about life. He
Speaker 3: was thinking about how much this place has been his home,
Speaker 3: how many times he screwed up while he was here,
Speaker 3: how I could have done better. I could have done better, Yes,
Speaker 3: start his papers.
Speaker 1: I mean that's pretty it's actually it's pretty great. He
Speaker 1: is direct to Feenie and admitting that I didn't. I
Speaker 1: just want the resolve to be like, well, I could
Speaker 1: have done better, and therefore I'm going to move forward. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just that, it's just needs another thirty seconds of real
Speaker 1: summation of yeah, but instead it's just emotional Sean.
Speaker 3: He folds up his final paper.
Speaker 2: That's what I wrote.
Speaker 3: That's how I feel. I'm sorry I could have done better.
Speaker 3: Congratulations to those of you who did.
Speaker 2: In fact, devaledictorian should have given the speech right.
Speaker 3: The audience applauds loudly for Sean, and as he returns
Speaker 3: to his seat, Phoene, shit, exactly like that. Well, Phoene
Speaker 3: shakes his hand. That was a fine paper. No one
Speaker 3: could have done better.
Speaker 1: I think probably could have.
Speaker 4: I also think he called it fine for a reason.
Speaker 4: That's what Susan say. Fine is the other F word.
Speaker 2: How do you look? You look fine? Oh great, that's
Speaker 2: the other word.
Speaker 3: So yeah. Phoene retakes the podium and announces now I
Speaker 3: would like to say something just then Eric shoots up
Speaker 3: from the crowd and have graduates. No, you're not going anywhere.
Speaker 3: Hi everybody, Hi, mom, Hi dad. Eric walks down the bleachers,
Speaker 3: maneuvering through the students and wearing a very cool soon
Speaker 3: right right, I me too, It's so cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks pretty styling.
Speaker 3: Hey, kids, congratulations. He lands at Phoene and grabs the mic.
Speaker 3: As most of you already at the end of this
Speaker 3: school year, mister Feenie will be retiring as a former
Speaker 3: student at John Adams High. It made me real mad.
Speaker 3: His voice deepens. Hello, I'm Eric Matthews. Phoene tries to
Speaker 3: grab the microphone but is unsuccessful. Eric shouts back off.
Speaker 3: Old Man Corey is concerned, but Eric assures him he
Speaker 3: knows what he's doing. Eric says into the mic, mister Feenie,
Speaker 3: I could tell you what I think about you, but
Speaker 3: it would just come out a bunch of words, and
Speaker 3: I know that nobody could say it better than a
Speaker 3: little girl named Lulu. He ac cues the music and
Speaker 3: grabs Pheeney's shoulders to sway him back and forth. We
Speaker 3: see some of the students faces. They are confused, and
Speaker 3: rightfully so. Eric begins to sing to Sir with love.
Speaker 3: Phoene tries to escape, but Eric yanks him back into
Speaker 3: his arms. In the audience, Alan whispers to his family,
Speaker 3: come on, let's get out of here. Eric continues to sing,
Speaker 3: not realizing his family is fleeing from embarrassment. Phoeney finally
Speaker 3: breaks free from Eric's grasp and sits back down. Eric,
Speaker 3: still singing, decides to lay across David and Wesley, who
Speaker 3: are sitting right next to mister Feenie. His head lays
Speaker 3: in poor Phoene's lap, who was just unsure what to
Speaker 3: do now.
Speaker 1: I remember correctly, will you like worked on this all
Speaker 1: week with the song, and I remember you saying like
Speaker 1: that in practice, you were singing it more straight like,
Speaker 1: and then when you got out here, you just like went, well,
Speaker 1: well yeah.
Speaker 2: Michael came up.
Speaker 4: To me, He's like, hey, I need to talk to you.
Speaker 4: You singing this week? I went like, what is you
Speaker 4: singing this week? We got you with a professional coach, right,
Speaker 4: And so for a week, for like two hours a day,
Speaker 4: I went and was learning to with the guy on
Speaker 4: the piano, like learning to sing to serve with love,
Speaker 4: really heartfelt, and in my head the whole time, I
Speaker 4: was like, this isn't how I'm gonna do it right,
Speaker 4: This is a joke, Like I'm not going to actually
Speaker 4: get out there and serenade him. I've got to Eric
Speaker 4: serenade him, and so yeah, it was strange to like
Speaker 4: have to work on it a note, you gotta hit
Speaker 4: this note, and we got to do and it was
Speaker 4: it was a fun way for like to have the
Speaker 4: vocal practice, to be honest with you, but it had.
Speaker 2: Nothing to do with the final performance.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so funny to me because obviously we've had
Speaker 3: another of heartfelt, sentimental little moment here where Sean has
Speaker 3: kind of brought the mood down with his I could
Speaker 3: have done better thing, and we desperately need the comedic relief.
Speaker 3: But I so loved the sentimental ending between Eric and
Speaker 3: Feenie of last week where you said, if I'm really
Speaker 3: really quiet, will you stay? And then this song, which
Speaker 3: is a very funny moment, but it goes on for
Speaker 3: a little too long, the whole song, Yes, the whole thing,
Speaker 3: and yeah, I don't know, I feel it. So it
Speaker 3: was so funny. It would have been so funny for
Speaker 3: like a few seconds, and then when he breaks away,
Speaker 3: something else has to happen, but.
Speaker 2: He cut it off. I agree, Yeah, it was it
Speaker 2: went on too long.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Franky and Joey are there and they love the performance.
Speaker 3: Eric's rendition is becoming more and more passionate, until Feeni
Speaker 3: has had enough and he pushes him to the ground.
Speaker 3: Eric is determined to finish and he jumps up for
Speaker 3: a big finale. Corey, Sean and Tapanga look on in
Speaker 3: horror of our mouths.
Speaker 4: Again, those are that one reaction shot was hysterical.
Speaker 3: I know, with all three of us make it in
Speaker 3: the same pace. And then we transition into later At
Speaker 3: the graduation ceremony, Foene is proudly handing a diploma to
Speaker 3: Seawan Hunter.
Speaker 2: Do you remember this?
Speaker 4: Do you remember what we were doing the entire time
Speaker 4: during rehearsal, which was just so fun?
Speaker 1: That's right, we would not god, So, yeah, so there was.
Speaker 2: It was for the whole week of rehearsal.
Speaker 4: It was usually just Mattie and I sitting in the audience,
Speaker 4: and then it was matt and then Rusty came in
Speaker 4: and the family came in. And so what we were
Speaker 4: doing what we went to during rehearsal and for run throughs,
Speaker 4: is that every time Bill would say somebody's name like
Speaker 4: and Shawn Hunter, screaming, clapping, going nuts like we're the
Speaker 4: whole audience yeah, yeah, he got to court Corey Matthews,
Speaker 4: dead silence.
Speaker 2: Nobody made a sound, and so we were doing it
Speaker 2: for he was walking.
Speaker 4: Guys were having so much to the point we were
Speaker 4: doing it again.
Speaker 1: I remember looking angry and quiet, trying to smile.
Speaker 4: Because we're just going Angela who pangers Corey Matthews.
Speaker 2: We had so much fun. Oh, he was getting so rankled.
Speaker 2: He's come on, come.
Speaker 3: On, that's so funny. So Phoene is probably handing a
Speaker 3: diploma to Sean Hunter. Jack tells those of plauding around
Speaker 3: him in the crowd, that's my little brother right there,
Speaker 3: and they all shush him, which seems like an insane
Speaker 3: thing to do at a graduation. Sean embraces Corey into
Speaker 3: Panga before taking a seat. Phoenie calls to Panga Lawrence
Speaker 3: and she beams as she receives the diploma. She walks
Speaker 3: back to the two boys and gives them another hug.
Speaker 3: Phoene calls Corey Matthews and he excitedly takes his diploma,
Speaker 3: showing it off to his parents, who are sitting in
Speaker 3: the crowd. The hugs continue as he grabs Tapanga and Sean,
Speaker 3: and then Phoenie calls Stuart Minkus. He gets his diploma
Speaker 3: and turns to the group to celebrate. After a little deliberation,
Speaker 3: they all stand up and happily give him a bit
Speaker 3: group hug.
Speaker 1: Can anybody else notice?
Speaker 4: Matthews mincis more it's like everybody on her show's last
Speaker 4: name ends with an M.
Speaker 3: I know, well it's Laura, yeah, and then Lawrence. It
Speaker 3: actually goes pretty well in order. There's not a ton
Speaker 3: of names, you know, in between. It's not too had.
Speaker 2: At a lot of m last names on our show.
Speaker 2: Yeah we did ye.
Speaker 3: Angela Moore is called next, and she and Sean hugg
Speaker 3: Once she places her tassel on the other side of
Speaker 3: her cap pregnant, you're.
Speaker 2: Just like she's graduating for two you can tell.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Corey picks up his conversation with Tapanga. So you
Speaker 3: were going to say something? Was it important? Topeka asks,
Speaker 3: you mean that I decided what I want to do
Speaker 3: with my life. Corey nods yeah, that. Tapega explains mister
Speaker 3: Feoene says that I should go to Yale unless I
Speaker 3: have a really good reason not to. Corey tells her
Speaker 3: there isn't any good reason, but Tapanga disagrees, Actually there is.
Speaker 3: She starts to explain, but is interrupted by Phoene officially
Speaker 3: introducing the John Adams High School class of nineteen hundred
Speaker 3: and ninety eight, the graduate.
Speaker 2: Graduating class here n nine ninety seven. Okay, ninety four, cool, cool,
Speaker 2: just check it.
Speaker 3: Just a graduate stand yet the graduate stand with pride
Speaker 3: except for Topanga. She holds Corey's arm and asks, will
Speaker 3: you marry me? Corey sits back down as soft music
Speaker 3: plays in the background. He looks like he's seen a
Speaker 3: ghost when this bomb means well, so there it is.
Speaker 3: There's our season five recap, rest in peace. I guess
Speaker 3: mister Turner and.
Speaker 4: Micascas, Allan Myerson, Frankie and Joey.
Speaker 2: Frankie and Joey.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what a season?
Speaker 3: All right? So this is ABC dot dot com. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: presented by Jello. Oh and look at the uh who
Speaker 3: wants to be Okay?
Speaker 4: Wow?
Speaker 3: That was after the fact, yeah, after the fact. So,
Speaker 3: but they had one. It was like this for before
Speaker 3: which wedding ideas do you like best?
Speaker 1: Should we have the wedding?
Speaker 3: Yeah's parents in a hotel outside which you check out
Speaker 3: my video before you start? Will you click on that Okay,
Speaker 3: so it's a pink page. It has our wedding, which
Speaker 3: wedding ideas? Do you like best? Answer all the questions
Speaker 3: and let us know. Plus, if you like, check out
Speaker 3: my video before you start, thanks to Panga.
Speaker 2: Did you do a video?
Speaker 3: I know that's what I'm wondering.
Speaker 5: The video is no longer hosted on there.
Speaker 1: I can't get the video.
Speaker 2: Oh no you, I mean you must have.
Speaker 3: I must have.
Speaker 2: You're not going to cut to somebody else. So this is.
Speaker 3: Definitely the website for after we had where we were
Speaker 3: getting married? Where's the poll?
Speaker 5: So a lot this is from wayback Machine, which like
Speaker 5: catalogs old websites, and a lot of the poll results
Speaker 5: won't come up. There's a photo album that I don't
Speaker 5: think will load all the way but.
Speaker 4: Memory's but but there we go to listen. Click each
Speaker 4: picture to hear marriage boy.
Speaker 3: A little picture of young Ben. Click to listen. Apparently
Speaker 3: there was a message there is there are there more pictures?
Speaker 3: Or is that the only one that loads?
Speaker 5: It looks like that's the only one.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's a terrible photo.
Speaker 1: And see I'm wondering if there really was a poll
Speaker 1: for whether they should get married That's what I want
Speaker 1: to know, because this.
Speaker 3: Is where I remember it. I do remember it. I
Speaker 3: remember it being a big and I remember going to
Speaker 3: it and there being like a vote a vote thing.
Speaker 2: Did you vote?
Speaker 3: I think I did.
Speaker 2: Did you Did you vote yeay or nay?
Speaker 3: I think I voted yay okay. I don't remember, but
Speaker 3: I think I probably would have.
Speaker 4: There would have been some some great irony about you
Speaker 4: voting against it.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think you did.
Speaker 1: I think at the time I was to the audience
Speaker 1: after to Panga and propose.
Speaker 3: I think it was this summer. So, yeah, this entire break.
Speaker 1: So the idea that if the poll failed, then what
Speaker 1: you guys?
Speaker 3: His answer would be no, oh okay because the next episode,
Speaker 3: our next episode recap will be season six, episode one,
Speaker 3: which is titled his Answer Part one.
Speaker 2: So are we taking a break? We sure?
Speaker 3: Are Are we taking a gap year?
Speaker 2: We are.
Speaker 3: We're taking a gap year. We're doing a very modern
Speaker 3: day graduate from high school thing. We're going to be
Speaker 3: taking a gap year before we enter college. The gap
Speaker 3: year will not actually be a full year, but it
Speaker 3: will be Yeah. No, we're not going to take a
Speaker 3: full year, but we are going to take a little
Speaker 3: bit of time to give ourselves a break before we
Speaker 3: jump into the next season.
Speaker 2: It is just time for us to go to the gap, right.
Speaker 3: Exactly sweet. So we will be having some very very
Speaker 3: fun episodes before we dive into season six, including the
Speaker 3: return of brah Meets World next week. And then we
Speaker 3: are also going to do season drafts for season's four.

Speaker 3: lot of you called us out on it. A lot
Speaker 3: of you said, what the hell, where's my season four draft?
Speaker 3: And we don't want to leave you hanging, So we're
Speaker 3: gonna do a season four draft and then we'll do
Speaker 3: a season five.
Speaker 1: To lose again, so we can't.
Speaker 4: We never even got the I think I might have
Speaker 4: won the film Festival the film Festival, which is why
