00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: Do either of you do anything currently that makes you

2
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: realize you've not become your parents, because we've all become

3
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,239
Speaker 1: our parents at this point, but make you realize you've

4
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:39,159

Speaker 1: For them, not for them. It's definitely for me for

12
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: the lint chocolates in my purse at all times. You

70
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 5: So he just would like memorize these toasts. So he

71
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,560

73

74
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've become my grandfather.

75
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: I love that. Okay, I'm Alma, You're Harry. Who are you?

76
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: Will I don't know.

77
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: I only knew one grandfather growing up, and I'm definitely

78
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: not like him. He was a very nice guy, but

79
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: he was a really intense banker. Oh so obviously not

80
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 3: like me. Uh No, but I apparently I think I'm

81
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 3: like the grandfather I'm actually named after. But unfortunately he

82
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 3: passed well before my dad never even met so I

83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 3: think I was like, yeah, he My mom was in

84
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 3: high school when she lost her dad, so.

85
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 4: I think i'd be like him.

86
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 3: He'd be by I don't even know what we would

87
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 3: have called him, Grandpa, will or William, but I never

88
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: really met him.

89
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 4: I'm just I've always been old. I love being old.

90
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 3: The older I get, the more I'm embracing it because

91
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: unlike older generations, when I say my generation was better

92
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 3: and the younger generation is wrong, I'm right, you know,

93
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 3: right when we were there, But now that we're the

94
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 3: older generation were correct, So that's easy. I did want

95
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 3: to tell you one thing, Danielle, because I unfortunately scared

96
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: the crap out of Susan.

97
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,799
Speaker 4: You've got to be very careful with heating pads.

98
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: I know, I did see that that viral thing of that,

99
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: like her back.

100
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 3: Turned black and all that stuff like that. So you

101
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 3: got to be careful. You can't just be in your

102
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 3: heating pad all day. Yeah, that's not a good thing.

103
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: But yes, no, clearly with the car seat too, somebody

104
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 3: finally realized that there should be a different setting there.

105
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 3: So now I also have air We have one car.

106
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 3: We also have air conditioncy so do we Yeah, So

107
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: while Susan is in her hot seat, I get the

108
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 3: air blowing on my back fat, which.

109
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 4: Is just awesome.

110
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 3: It's great, and it cools everything down.

111
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: It's like there's like actual holes.

112
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: There's vents.

113
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a little vents and you get it's like

114
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 4: it blows.

115
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: The leather is perforated and then there's there's ventilation. I

116
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't say it feels very cool. It's not like cool air,

117
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: but it is air.

118
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's but it's sticky something.

119
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not.

120
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: So when we have the Woodland Hills one hundred and seventeen,

121
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: which is probably just right around the corner.

122
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 5: We're in a in a heat wave this week. Really, yes,

123
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 5: it's like in the nineties.

124
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 3: Not me I'm gonna be I'm gonna be back east

125
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 3: where it's gonna be real cold.

126
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: Oh, that'll be nice.

127
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 3: Even though it's been sixty this week, enough snow has melted.

128
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: But my dad said, there's still an eight foot pile

129
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 3: of snow in front of our house.

130
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: And now we're talking about the weather. That's how you

131
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: know something to do, exactly exactly.

132
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: That's how you know it used to be hot like this.

133
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 4: It wasn't all the time.

134
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: If it's global warming, why is it so cold?

135
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 4: It's true?

136
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,200

Speaker 1: the How can how can.

200
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 3: They still be a year late? I guess because they're

201
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: so processed, how can they still be.

202
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 2: Actual food in there?

203
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:52,320

00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:53,360

205
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 2: Those just microplastics with on top.

206
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: How have we not talked about the McDonald's CEO not

207
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: being able to choke down his own product because he

208
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 3: doesn't even say.

209
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: Hamburger, especially because that archburger was good. I don't know

210
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: why he was having such a hard time with it.

211
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: It was delicious.

212
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 2: Because McDonald's is horrible, I don't eat it anymore.

213
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 4: I don't eat it anymore. I switched to Burger King.

214
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: Okay, I enjoy your life.

215
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,120

00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 4: But it's better than burger the McDonald's.

217
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 3: The woman now who has had the McDonald's hamburger and

218
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: the fries in her closet for twenty five years uncovered

219
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 3: and they look exactly the same, scared the hell out

220
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: of me.

221
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: I think that's there's no way that's true. It is true.

222
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: They've done, they've they've done.

223
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 5: It's multiple people have done the version of this, but

224
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 5: it's not necessarily what you think like, it's not that's

225
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 5: not really the problem that you think it is, like

226
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 5: if you're in a climate controlled food situation.

227
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 3: No, they're saying because they've done experiments too where they

228
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 3: take McDonald's food and they lay it outside and bugs

229
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,160

00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: I would rather say I know how to spot poison

236
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: when I see it as they walk right into an

237
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:18,680

Speaker 1: I'm at the place now I still like the cottage cheese.

290
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,119
Speaker 1: I am at a place now where I'm just annoyed

291
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: when I'm hungry, I'm.

292
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 4: Like, how are we going to know the difference?

293
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: Just make it stop, Make it stop, make the hunker stop.

294
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: I don't want to eat it. I don't want to

295
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: eat any more chicken. How do I push? Please? I

296
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: don't even I don't want to chew it. I want

297
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: to just push. Lunch is cottage and eggs and egg

298
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: whites and avocados.

299
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 4: So you're all protein, You're all about the protein.

300
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: I'm all about protein and vegetables, very few carbs.

301
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 3: If you're getting what at least one hundred grams of

302
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 3: protein to day.

303
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: No, I can't. I can't choke it down. I'm getting

304
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: at least sixty. So my cottage cheese has like twenty

305
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: three grams of protein in it. I'll make a bunch

306
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: of egg whites and one egg yolk in the morning

307
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: and I'll have like, you know, twelve grams of proteins.

308
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 4: Less than you think. Eggs says less than you think.

309
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's like between my breakfast of eggs, egg

310
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: whites and cottage cheese and then half an avocado, I have,

311
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: you know, thirty five grams of protein. And then at lunch,

312
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: I'll eat two chicken skewers and like a Greek yogurt

313
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: and I have another thirty some odd grams there. And

314
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: then honestly, if I get hungry at dinner, I just

315
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: try to, like I don't know, take a unisalmon, go

316
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: to sleep and help the process.

317
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: I can make a suggestion that would help if so,

318
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: at like four o'clock, have a protein shake, I know,

319
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: two scoops of protein some fruit in there.

320
00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 4: Have a protein shake.

321
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: It jacks up your protein okay, And it's not that

322
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 3: hard to choke down.

323
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: Okay. And I can do something like a smoothie. I

324
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: can do something where I have to drink something, but

325
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: if I have to chew anything else.

326
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 4: Go get some dates.

327
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 3: Go get some fresh dates, and rip one open and

328
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 3: throw it in your smoothie. It sweetens everything up. You

329
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: get that with your protein, and you're jacking up your protein.

330
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: Coming all right? Thanks? Will I like this?

331
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 3: Well?

332
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: We did like two pre show chatter. God two pre

333
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: show chatter, separated by our intros. This is crazy. Welcome

334
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: to Podmeads World. Today we are recapping season seven, episode twelve,

335
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: Family Trees. It originally aired December seventeenth, nineteen ninety nine.

336
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: The synopsis Sean is rattled by a letter from his

337
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: long lost mom, while Eric is tasked with throwing a

338
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: surprise party for his dad. It was directed by Fred Savage,

339
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: his first of two Boy Meets World episodes that he

340
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: would direct. The former child star was not only Ben's

341
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: older brother and the star of the hit show The

342
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: Wonder Years. He appeared on the show as a creepy

343
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: college professor hitting on tapanga. Our show was the first

344
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: to offer him a directing gig, something he turned into

345
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: a career for twenty years. He would leave the industry

346
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one amongst allegations and controversies, and is

347
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: now focusing on a career involving his love of watches.

348
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: It was written by mister Matthew Nelson. Mayhew rested, ease

349
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: before I jump into our guest stars, do we want

350
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: to share our overall thoughts?

351
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I this was This is so weird, guys. This

352
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: is the hardest episode for me to watch.

353
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: Really, I do why.

354
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: I can see why I hated this so much.

355
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I know that it has.

356
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 5: Nothing to do with whether it's a good or bad

357
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 5: episode for whatever reason.

358
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: And I was watching this like Indy went to bed.

359
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 5: I put it on because I was like, oh, it's,

360
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 5: you know, time for me to watch the show. And

361
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 5: Alex like was walking in and out like after like

362
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 5: helping Indy go to bed and then coming in, And

363
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 5: I was so embarrassed that she would be watching this episode.

364
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 5: It's just such a weird feeling. I don't know, Like

365
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 5: I was like and I'm like, am I really bad?

366
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 5: And I'm like, I don't know if I'm really that bad,

367
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,239
Speaker 5: Like it's not great, but it's not even about that.

368
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 5: For some reason, I had blocked this entire episode up

369
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 5: from my head. Me too did not remember it. I've

370
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 5: gotten did we have the discussion where I remembered being

371
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 5: at Chet's grave with him? And I feel like somebody

372
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 5: was like, no, that never happened, and I was like, no,

373
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 5: I think I was at the grave. So I thought

374
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 5: I had completely made up a scene and then here

375
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 5: it was. But yeah, for whatever reason, I have blocked

376
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 5: this entire episode. We all forgot that Sean got drunk

377
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 5: a second time. I remember we were like at a

378
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 5: live show and somebody was like, no, Sean has two

379
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 5: alcohol episodes and we were like what. So for whatever reason,

380
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 5: I have blocked this entire episode from my brain, and

381
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 5: I hated watching it.

382
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 2: It made me feel so bad. It sucks and I

383
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: don't know what that's all about. But like, this is

384
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 2: the most insecure.

385
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 5: I've ever felt watching, which is weird. I don't know.

386
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: It is not performance related, because because your performance is great, I.

387
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 2: Think it's fine.

388
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: It is the fact that they, you know, have brought

389
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: you back to a multiple seasons ago storyline. It feels insulting.

390
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 3: It's like, especially in the midst of whatever season seven

391
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 3: is now, and it's like they took season four or

392
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 3: five Sean, they took Angsty Sean. At first, I was like,

393
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 3: Engsty Shawan's back.

394
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 2: I literally show up in the leather jacket again.

395
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 5: And the second I walked in, I was like, oh god,

396
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 5: oh no, your Shawn episode and Sean's got his leather

397
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 5: jacket back. And I was terrified immediately, and I look

398
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 5: like a child. I look, I'm infantalized by that jacket. Yeah,

399
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 5: because it's like, oh, suddenly I look like I'm fifty

400
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 5: again when I'm clear. And then they're talking about adopting

401
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 5: me when I'm I'm nineteen, I'm eight, I'm twenty. I

402
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 5: know how old am I? What are you talking about?

403
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 5: You don't adopt an, oh, someone over eighteen? And I

404
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 5: was like, I've literally been infantalized by this story, Like ooh,

405
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 5: this one hurt.

406
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 3: Uh. Yeah, I I don't. I'm coming to the point

407
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 3: now where I just don't know. Yeah, I just don't

408
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 3: know the twenty two minutes that happens in front of

409
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 3: me anymore.

410
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't and all the characters are weird.

411
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 5: I was funny. I guess I thought you were hysterical.

412
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 5: I thought Ben and Danielle were great. I actually like

413
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 5: liked all those things.

414
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 2: It was just every time I was on camera, I

415
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 2: just wanted to hide my face.

416
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 4: It was a strange. It was a strange episode.

417
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 3: And then there's things I'm sure we're gonna get into

418
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 3: where it was just a normal episode except for one

419
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 3: scene where then it was a Christmas episode. Was that

420
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 3: we were in Christmas anywhere, and then it was Christmas

421
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 3: literally for one scene, and then it wasn't Christmas again.

422
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, Wow, it was actually Alan's birthday, so give guests

423
00:19:59,280 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 5: for that.

424
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 3: There's no tree in the house, nobody mentions Christmas. And

425
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 3: then you're on a street being followed by Santa with

426
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 3: Christmas lights all over the place. And then you come

427
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 3: back and nobody mentions Christmas. What the hell. It's like

428
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 3: they've given up. It's very very straight. Oh, I wanted

429
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 3: to say this. I didn't know if this was good

430
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: preshow chatter. I don't think it is, because it's just

431
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 3: very quick, but I was. I met with a bunch

432
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 3: of the writers this weekend. We went and saw David Kendall,

433
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 3: and I got a very interesting story we were talking

434
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 3: about the episode we all liked about.

435
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 4: Planning for the wedding.

436
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 3: Oh yes, and Brownfield told me that originally the original

437
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 3: concept was you're talking you know, it seems like you're

438
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 3: talking to somebody, and then originally you pan out and

439
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 3: you were going to be talking to some big celebrity

440
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 3: that they were.

441
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 4: Going to get oh and no one agreed to do it.

442
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 3: And so it came right before we were going to

443
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 3: shoot and they changed it to where fine, you're just

444
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 3: talking to the family. But they said for weeks apparently

445
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 3: they tried to get some name person to sit there,

446
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 3: like a wedding planner or something you were going to

447
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 3: be talking to who was like this big dark star,

448
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 3: and nobody they couldn't get anybody.

449
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: I wonder who they would have gone after, Like I think.

450
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 4: They went after a bunch of people.

451
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, someone from the moment, someone from the Partridge family members.

452
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 3: But that was an interesting story I heard. But this

453
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 3: I I watched these season seven episodes now and I

454
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 3: just kind of I go, oh, okay, like I don't

455
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 3: I don't know what's happening. And yeah, Sean was from

456
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 3: season four. We were we were Christmas for one scene. Uh,

457
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 3: It's just was very it was odd all the way around.

458
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 3: I didn't dislike it. And Writer, I know what you're saying.

459
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 3: I know what you're saying. It seemed out of place.

460
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: You were not bad.

461
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 3: You were just season five Sean or whatever it was.

462
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 3: You weren't bad at it with the performance. Wasn't like

463
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 3: the writer's terrible. It was just, oh, now it looks

464
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 3: even more out of place because we're all completely different characters.

465
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 4: And you're going back to an older version of see.

466
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what I That's what I felt coming

467
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: through was through your performance. I could feel you being dejected.

468
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 2: Yep.

469
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: And so it's it's like and it didn't feel like

470
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 1: Sean being dejected. It felt like a person. Yes, it

471
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: felt like writer is doing his best. But also, yeah, where.

472
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 2: I felt that the most is actually in the positive moments.

473
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 2: In the early parts of the episode.

474
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 5: I could hear myself pushing, hey, Cory, but I was

475
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 5: like pushing as an actor to be like, I have

476
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 5: to say these funny, jokey lines, and I could tell

477
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 5: I hated all of it.

478
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 4: I was like, right, at least I wasn't pushing to comedy.

479
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: No, definitely not.

480
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 3: It's funny.

481
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: Also Ben doing the voice.

482
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 2: Oh, he broke multiple times in this episode.

483
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: He was cracking himself up, rocking himself up.

484
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 2: Oh, and that's so funny. So his brother was directing.

485
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 5: I didn't put bet together, but he felt comfortable in

486
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 5: a way and like was doing things that he probably

487
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 5: would do during rehearsal and I wouldn't make it to

488
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 5: the show.

489
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 2: Made it into the show this week.

490
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 5: This was Yeah, this was the most Ben I've ever

491
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 5: felt watching it, where it's like, this is his sense

492
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 5: of humor coming through.

493
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: And yes, it makes sense too, in the sense that

494
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: when your famous brother who's now directing your show you

495
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: want you're gonna watch me do my thing, You're going

496
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 1: to feel a little bit more confident and comfortable and

497
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: maybe put on more of a show than you would

498
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: normally you're.

499
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 4: On set, this is my show.

500
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 3: It's also Ben is a completely different character and actor

501
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 3: when he doesn't have to carry the load for the episode.

502
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 1: Yes, total, So it's like it was your.

503
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 3: Episode rider and he gets to just kind of it.

504
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 3: I'm going to relax and just be funny and just

505
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 3: go from there.

506
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. When he says to Amy.

507
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I don't think anyone else, Oh my god.

508
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 5: And the audience almost turns on him because.

509
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: Even making it that comical with a voice is like

510
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 1: you're saying that to your mother in any circumstances, no

511
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: matter how funny you try to make it, there's a

512
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: little bit of like a should we be celebrating this kid?

513
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 2: That's Ben?

514
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,520

Speaker 3: Christmas episode? And this year we're concentrating on Alan's birthday

567
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 3: because he always gets screwed, but he always sniffs it out.

568
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 3: It's such an eat throw a tree up behind him,

569

Speaker 1: It this Okay, it's bad for the record for anyone

584
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: who thinks that when you are feeling or looking a

585
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 1: little bigger, wearing bigger clothes does not make you look smaller.

586
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: It makes you look bigger.

587
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 4: Sue said the same thing.

588
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 3: She's like, they just got a tent maker on set

589
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,719
Speaker 3: who just made me something and threw it out.

590
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 4: Yeah. Sue said the same things like, why.

591
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,640
Speaker 3: Are you in huge close? Yes? If you feel big?

592

593
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: Matthews as the Alan Matthews birthday party planner. Bravo to you.

594
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: Uh does this ring true for Alan in any way?

595
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 2: No?

596
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 4: No, no, he is.

597
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 5: A selfless provider. Like there's nothing about Alan that has been.

598
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 2: Established that makes this fit.

599
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's nothing about him that seems materialistic, Like, yeah,

600
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: I it doesn't make any sense.

601
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 3: This is also when I realized, and I think we've

602
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 3: all now established this zero memory of this and I

603
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 3: mean literally zero, zero memory of this episode normally I

604
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 3: remember something.

605
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: Do you guys even remember Fred directing?

606
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 4: Because I don't don't.

607
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: I don't remember the I don't remember the week of

608
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: being like all fronts here two.

609
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 5: Apparently two weeks I remember, No, I remember, yeah, I

610
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 5: remember it. I remember seeing him with the the pedestal

611
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 5: or whatever, the rolling the direc and I remember like

612
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 5: thinking it was cool. It's all I remember, thinking like,

613
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 5: that's cool, Like I would probably want to do that

614
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 5: one day, right, it seemed like a natural progression, like, oh,

615
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 5: as an actor, when I get older, I could probably

616
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 5: maybe direct one day.

617
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 2: Like that was the first time that that really occurred

618
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 2: to me.

619
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 4: This is a yeah, this is one of those episodes.

620
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 3: And there's only a handful of the entire seven series

621
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 3: seven seasons where I literally have no memory.

622
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:26,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, no memory of this at all.

623
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: It's crazy. Eric announces his strategy. Here's the key as

624
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: I see it. Dad was a Navy man, which means

625
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: he'll use any means, even torture, to find out about

626
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: this party. Corey reminds him Alan was a cook in

627
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 1: the coast Guard.

628
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 3: He was in the navy.

629
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: Navy, Yeah, grabbing Corey and shaking him. Daddy was a

630
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: Navy seal. Don't you ever? Corey screams for help and

631
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: no one moves an inch. Luckily, Alan walks in through

632
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: the door. Hi. Everyone stops what they're doing. Eric can't

633
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: help himself, tell him nothing with that. He darts up

634
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: the stairs, and Alan pretends to block his way up

635
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: before playfully returning to the rest of his family.

636
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 2: Which is totally rusty, just messing. I can tell that's rusty,

637
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 2: improvising the lift block.

638
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 3: And a screon around three more days.

639
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to be so happy in three more days.

640
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: Anybody know why? Morgan she's at Christmas? I'm not playing

641
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: and walks out. Alan taunts her, what a baby. Then

642
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: he sings to Amy forty six, the Big four six,

643
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: till Alan matters is younger than Will by like four years.

644
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,959
Speaker 3: I mean, my god, Alan and I even have been

645
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 3: in high school together.

646
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what do you get a forty six

647
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: year old? Huh? Amy knows where this is going. Alan,

648
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: leave us the hell alone. She picks up her belongings

649
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: and heads to the kitchen. Then Sean and Angelo walk

650
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: in with big smiles. Angela encourages Sean to tell them,

651
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: but he assures her there's nothing to tell, but everyone's

652
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: interest is piqued. Corey wonders tell us what. Sean hesitantly reveals,

653
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: I got a letter from my mom Verna in case

654
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: you forgot. He pulls a letter out of his pocket

655
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: and Corey asks have you opened it? Sean says no,

656
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: and Corey aggressively insists he tear it up. Seawan is

657
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: surprised he hasn't heard from his mom in three years,

658
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: but Corey's insistent he knows what's best, tear it up.

659
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: Alan senses the tension and give Sean some finger guns. Hey, Sean.

660
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: Sean falls right in line with the other storyline. Hey,

661
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: mister Matthews, happy birthday in three days, right forty six?

662
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: Alan brings him in for a bear hug. This is

663
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about people. This is a good boy.

664
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: But Corey's still stuck on the letter. Look, everything's going

665
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: great for you. You've got great friends, You've got a beautiful, honest, sweet,

666
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: loving woman that loves you. Angela blushes, well, thanks, Corey.

667
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: He tells her to shut up and returns to his pitch.

668
00:31:58,480 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: You've made the.

669
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 5: Pease weird story, like what so a letter from your

670
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 5: mom who clearly abandoned you when your dad died, like

671
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 5: you've gone through so much, like it's it's it's like

672
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 5: a it's a yeah, it's like a plot line from

673
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 5: season four mailed to season seven Sean to just pull

674
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 5: in this emotional regression for the sake of stirring up

675
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 5: something like there's no other point, like it doesn't actually

676
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 5: affect Sean's life and anyway, it's just, yeah, here's an

677
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 5: emotional bomb so that we can bring Mopi Sean back,

678
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 5: so he can be MOPy and screw everybody up, when

679
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 5: actually it has nothing to do with anything, like there's

680
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 5: no actual story effect.

681
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: It also bothers me even for the Verna character, because

682
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: she's always mean. She's already a villain for sure, But

683
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: in what world do you think there's any justification to

684
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: drop a bomb like this in someone's life via letter.

685
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: By the way, not even.

686
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 5: She, but remember the old storyline, she wrote to me

687
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 5: every day that she was gone.

688
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 2: Remember that's the old storyline.

689
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 5: So the idea that she isn't my real mother and

690
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 5: writes me a letter to inform me of that after

691
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 5: three years of no contact goes completely against the whole storyline,

692
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 5: which is that even when she was searching for herself.

693
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 2: And had to leave my dad, how did you? She

694
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 2: loved me and she.

695
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 5: Would write me letters every day with that or every

696
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 5: week or whatever that storyline was. That was like season

697
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 5: six beginning right like it, So I.

698
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 4: Don't think it was even I think it was earlier

699
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 4: than that.

700
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 2: When Jack came in.

701
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: It was five yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just it's it's

702
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: so it's so weird.

703
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 3: We go the whole episode and then it's like, we

704
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 3: want to adopt you adult John, and then they don't.

705
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 3: That's the story. I mean, it's like, that's the story.

706
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 3: But again you've kind of finished and you're like, huh, okay.

707
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 2: Sean went through a thing this week, Sean got emotional.

708
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then and it's don't never leave me Angela.

709
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 3: She's like, I won't and does like five episodes.

710
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: I think that makes me planting a seed.

711
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 3: Maybe, but it's like, I, yeah, I didn't, I didn't

712
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: get this, and I'm so excited to know if this

713
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 3: is actually our Christmas episode this year.

714
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,919
Speaker 1: Yes it is. It's December seventeenth, December seventeen, So.

715
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 3: It makes it so much more that that's like your

716
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 3: lint chocolate, just lah Chef's kiss to throw somebody in

717
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 3: the Santa suit for one scene and go as is

718
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:29,240
Speaker 3: our Christmas episode.

719
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: Oh I love it.

720
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 5: I do like the Alan Sean Yeah storyline coming full

721
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,959
Speaker 5: circle because it's been low key a very important part

722
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 5: of the show.

723
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: And I love the idea that those two characters have

724
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 2: moments and their moment together. Totally love that. I just yeah.

725
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: This also is it actually doesn't bother me that you're

726
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 1: over eighteen and they're talking about adopting you, because having

727
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: someone to call your mom or your dad is a

728
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,399
Speaker 1: lot more than just about who's going to pay your

729
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: bills or live under your roof or even raise you.

730
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: It is a matter of like, symbolically, you have a dad.

731
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: If you go into the hospital because something's wrong and

732
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: they say it's only family, it's not just Jack who's

733
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,399
Speaker 1: allowed in there, I'm your dad.

734
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 3: But this is the problem I had with this entire thing.

735
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 3: He always had a dad, he never had a mom.

736
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 3: So how is this not a Betsy storyline?

737
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: We know the answer?

738
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 3: Well, that's what I mean. I mean the whole point

739
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 3: he had a dad, He stayed with his dad, and

740
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 3: his dad stayed with him that's what this storylines about.

741
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 3: He never had a mom there, So how is this

742
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 3: not Betsy wanting to be his mom as opposed to

743
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 3: just now a second dad.

744
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, so true.

745
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 2: No, that's so patriarchal.

746
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 3: I didn't get so. I was like, but he the

747
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 3: whole episode is about your great dad, even though you

748
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:49,879
Speaker 3: weren't here all the time.

749
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 4: You had a dad, And.

750
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 3: At one time in one scene goes like this, I'm

751
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 3: a pretty good mom, and it's like, oh, oh, that's right,

752
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:03,760
Speaker 3: Betsy's here.

753
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 1: You're right. Why couldn't she be the one obsessed with

754
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: her birthday, doesn't get to make the decision.

755
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 5: Yes, he makes a decision, and she goes, oh wait, okay,

756
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 5: yes we're going to adopt you.

757
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: I'll go along with husband, man of the house.

758
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 4: You're right, make it.

759
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 3: Betsy loves her, but it's a birthday party for mom.

760
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 3: Can we never do it right?

761
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 4: Because she always.

762
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 3: Takes care of us, now we have to take care

763
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 3: of her. And now she wants to adopt Sean because

764
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 3: Sean never had a mom, which is what the story

765
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 3: was about. Yeah wow, so yeah, okay.

766
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 1: But things are better when it's between men.

767
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 4: Danielle Danielle Ryder and I will tell you when to speak.

768
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: Okay, No mean when I should start the recap again.

769
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: Go ahead, okay, thank you. Amy jumps in, maybe Sean

770
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: needs to take a look at that letter for reasons

771
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: you can't see right now. Corey sarcastically responds with a lisp. Gee, mom,

772
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: I'm looking around the room here to see if anyone

773
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: asks your The inmates laugh uncomfortably and then ooh, as

774
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: he continues, I don't see anyone. Is anyone? No, Just

775
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 1: as it looks like everyone is about to break, Amy

776
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 1: gives him a few slaps on the face, and Corey

777
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: returns to Sean. You want an opinion, you ask to Penga.

778
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: He stomps over to his wife. Go ahead, to Panga,

779
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: tell him. She winces, knowing how this is gonna go down.

780
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: I think you need to let Sean do whatever he wants.

781
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: A smiling Corey lets out a sadistic chuckle and asks

782
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: everyone to excuse them for a moment. He points a

783
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: finger at to Panga. Don't you ever snap at me

784
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: like that in public again? In response, she whacks him

785
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 1: with her notepad. Meanwhile, Sean has indeed started reading the letter.

786
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 1: It says, my mom is somewhere in Honduras. Corey gasps, oh, no,

787
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: he opened it. Sean continues, and she's never coming back.

788
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: That's nothing new. I want to know how she wrote.

789
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 4: That I'm never coming back.

790
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: She here, the dad died, and now I have the

791
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: right to know something. Corey begs him to put the

792
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: letter back in the envelope. Amy tries to be optimistic.

793
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: It could be good news, but Corey knows better. He

794
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,800
Speaker 1: snatches the letter, but we see Sean's face has dropped completely.

795
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 1: Alan asks what's wrong. A stun Sean reveals she's not

796
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: my real mother. The room is stunned. We get dramatic

797
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 1: music and a dramatic commercial break when this's moydes Well Rander.

798
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: Do you remember when you learned that this was going

799
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: to be a storyline that Verna wasn't your just probably

800
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:28,720
Speaker 1: when you read the script?

801
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I had no memory. All I remember is working

802
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 5: like being in a cemetery and talking to ghost chat.

803
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 5: I remembered that that was something that happened on our show,

804
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 5: and that's all I remembered about this episode, and I

805
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 5: just am so checked out.

806
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,399
Speaker 3: He did just three episodes as a ghost. How many

807
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 3: episodes did he do alive? Did he do more episodes

808
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,399
Speaker 3: as a ghost than he did?

809
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 5: If you add Goal meets World because it came back

810
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 5: from Gerol Meets World too. I said it's about the same,

811
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 5: because it's probably like five and five.

812
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're in the guy's apartment. There are papers strewn

813
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,280
Speaker 1: across the kitchen, Homeland style, trying to connect the dots

814
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 1: of Sean's potential mother. Sean huffs, we got to find

815
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: my mom, Jack, Jack sarcastically asks, I'm the only family

816
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,959
Speaker 1: you have left. Let's go on to search for your brother.

817
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, we don't have to he's here.

818
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: Such a good point, yep, it's such a good point.

819
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 3: The late nineties laptop, it's so big.

820
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: My most favorite thing is later when Jack, when Matt

821
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 1: says I've entered in all the information. All you have

822
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: to do, he hits one random button a few times

823
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 1: and then says, all you have to do is presenter.

824
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 1: It's just great. Sean reminds him you're my half brother.

825
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: Jack suggests, how about the other half beats the crap

826
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 1: out of you. Then Eric walks down the stairs ready

827
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:55,959
Speaker 1: to make an important announcement. He pulls out a long

828
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 1: pointer and reveals a poster board for his presentation. There's

829
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: a head shot Morgan plus a skull, which equals a

830
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: green picture of Morgan. Do you know what I'm just

831
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: now realizing I remember this. I remember the ball I

832
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 1: remember the board.

833
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 2: I thought it was so funny.

834
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: So funny. I think we had a hard time keeping

835
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: it together.

836
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 2: It's great. Are you kidding me? This is just great?

837
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 2: This is great. This is probably the best Eric storyline

838
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:26,240
Speaker 2: in a couple episodes.

839
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 1: I agree, so fun I agree, really really smart and funny.

840
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: Below that is a picture of an emergency room door,

841
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: which points to celebratory balloons. Eric explains, we give Morgan,

842
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: who will be our decoy, some kind of poison that

843
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 1: will make her ill. Dad will have to take her

844
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: to the hospital, and when he's in the emergency room,

845
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 1: that's when the party begins to Penga clarifies, are you

846
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: willing to poison your sister to surprise your father? Eric

847
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: doesn't answer, but does admit if Morgan goes south, actually

848
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 1: she will croaks. He flips over to a new poster board,

849
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: which has placed a skull over morgan space and added

850
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,760
Speaker 1: two ghastly feet with a toe tad that reads Morgan.

851
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: Eric continues, it's gonna put a damper.

852
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 2: On the Oh my god, I completely.

853
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,399
Speaker 1: Forgot about the poison the baby.

854
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 4: Smart, yeah, way less poison, way less.

855
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so much was poisoned. The baby can't talk, you know, Smart.

856
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: It's gonna put a damper on the entire party, which

857
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: is why we get Now we get another new board,

858
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 1: Horsey Rides. It's basically clip art of cowboy Eric holding

859
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: balloons and riding a pony. Eric's face has been taped

860
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 1: on the character. Notice me, I'm Eric on the horsey.

861
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: Let's call him Pete. The two of us together having fun, joy, merriment.

862
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 1: Corey raises his hand. I want to be over there now.

863
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: He jumps off the couch and makes his way to

864
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 1: Sean and Angela and Jack to avoid any more of

865
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: Eric's plan to peg A shouts take me with you

866
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: and follow. Eric is unfazed. All right, if any of

867
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 1: you need me, I'm gonna be at the bois in store.

868
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: And with that, he takes his presentation and leaves funny bit. Meanwhile,

869
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: in the kitchen, everyone is gathered around Jack's laptop. Sean

870
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 1: notices an interesting family on their dad's side. His great

871
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: grandfather and great uncle were born in Scotland. Cory and

872
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: Tapanga not an excitement ahttash. We are clearly breaking so

873
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: probably had a hard time keeping it together. Then, Sean continues,

874
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: and what they were known for was well, one day

875
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: they slaughtered their entire village. Cory and Tapanga exclaimed together

876
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: with only a little less excitement, ah slaughterers. Sean says,

877
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: I come from thieves and pillargers. I come from bad people.

878
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: Angela tries to lighten the mood. We haven't looked up

879
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: your mom's side, Sean reminds her he's had three mothers.

880
00:42:55,080 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: Join the club. Friend Jack nuts, yes, Verna, Mingwa and Elaine.

881
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: Sean admits, I think we can rule Minghwa out. Angela

882
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:12,439
Speaker 1: points out, which leaves Elaine. Jack agrees. Elaine McGuinty ah, yes,

883
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: last spotted in Boston, Sean smiles. She's probably sitting in

884
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 1: a coffeehouse reading poetry right now. You think Elaine's where

885
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: I got my poetry thing from Corl. I don't even

886
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: understand why does what do you mean? He's had three

887
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: mothers like.

888
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 4: The what you have been married times?

889
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,360
Speaker 1: But can't you look at the dates he was married

890
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 1: to this woman years before Sean was born.

891
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,520
Speaker 3: It's not her, right, you think.

892
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: And by the way, are we really acting like it's

893
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: got to be somebody he's married too, because it doesn't

894
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: even make any sense. He would only have been married

895
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: to possibly two people if it's around the time of

896
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: you being born, like you, so if the idea is

897
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,839
Speaker 1: but I don't know, I.

898
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, it's like it's one of the first

899
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 3: storylines where it's always like I don't know who my

900
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 3: dad is. This is the one I don't know who

901
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 3: my mom is, which is kind of a weird storyline.

902
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 1: Yes, it's so, Yeah, someone just stated you for a

903
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 1: long time and there's only a short period of time

904
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: where you could have been made.

905
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 3: And then gave you to check.

906
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 1: So and the hard part too, is like back then

907
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 1: there's no social media to find all his girlfriends. Oh

908
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: I found this, Look, this was a girlfriend he was here.

909
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 5: There's also no genetic testing exactly, parentage or like maybe

910
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 5: it was just burgeoning like the idea that you could

911
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 5: actually do it.

912
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 2: But it's also weird to think I learned the truth

913
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 2: from a.

914
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 3: Ghost of course, So yes, like we do.

915
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 5: Find out that Sean's mom was a stripper from a ghost,

916
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 5: so that information is magically downloaded through the spirit world.

917
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 3: I was just thinking the whole time, how many members

918
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 3: of Nobody's Angel are actually your sisters.

919
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 4: It's like, because you know, you're related to at least

920
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 4: fifty percent of that.

921
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: Girl group, right, Oh my gosh. So yeah, okay, uh,

922
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 1: Corey answers no, and Sean doesn't understand. Corey continues, I

923
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: just don't want you to expect anything on cue. Jack announces, Okay,

924
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: I've entered all the information. He then taps on a

925
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 1: few keys, because that's how computers work, and continues, So.

926
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 5: I mean, I love how technology works in general. The

927
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 5: idea and this is this is totally of the time,

928
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 5: right that you did stuff on a computer with the Internet,

929
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 5: but it wasn't real until you got it through the mail, right,

930
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like you have to like

931
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 5: that's a corner limp with technology back then. Is like

932
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 5: because even I remember, like you applied to college, you

933
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 5: could maybe do part of it online, but it had

934
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 5: to actually be through the mail that you got your answer,

935
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.

936
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: Internet gave you the ability to print your paperwork that

937
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: then you had to mail.

938
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 2: Even in college. They would not accept work via email.

939
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 5: Like I had to turn in papers, actually physically turn

940
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 5: them in because.

941
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,360
Speaker 2: It was like, oh, this computer stuff is on.

942
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,760
Speaker 5: So it's like a weird little time where there is internet,

943
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 5: we can't like you couldn't even buy stuff online yet

944
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 5: really like Amazon wasn't around yet or the.

945
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: Bays getting closed though, because I've been a member of

946
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 1: the base since like two thousand and one.

947
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,240
Speaker 3: So okay, yeah, kiddy, my school, My school didn't allow

948
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 3: typed papers.

949
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 4: We had to handwrite our papers. Yeah, you weren't even

950
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 4: allowed to do it.

951
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:27,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because if spell.

952
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,280
Speaker 5: Check was cheap, yes, so, but think about you wouldn't

953
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 5: give your credit card online?

954
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,759
Speaker 2: Like that was a scary It was crazy. I was like,

955
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 2: oh no, once your information got out there and now it's.

956
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:37,960
Speaker 4: Now you just scan ten times a day.

957
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 3: Here you go, a strange person, I bought a car.

958
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:42,359
Speaker 4: Yeah it's ridiculous.

959
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: But uh so all you have to do is hit

960
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 1: search and they'll send you the results in a few

961
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 1: days in the mail, six eight weeks or you want

962
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 1: to do this right? Sean has no doubts. He's sure,

963
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: but Jack isn't as confident. Is that your final answer?

964
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: Timely reference.

965
00:46:58,200 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh that's why I said the same thing.

966
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, does he does he get the results?

967
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 4: He gets the results?

968
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: Right?

969
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 2: No, the results I get here is just that Ellen

970
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 2: McGuinty is.

971
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 3: You get the results. But I'm trying to figure out

972
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 3: the timeline. So they you sent it out and got

973
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 3: the results back before Rusty's birthday, which is two.

974
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: Days awa three days? It's three days.

975
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, so it's been so it's basically like, yeah,

976
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 2: that's that's a good point.

977
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 4: Okay.

978
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 3: The mail is so fast, super fast in ninety nine

979
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 3: in the Philadelphia region.

980
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: Basically the way the internet works is someone sitting there

981
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 1: waiting to get it and then the minute the order

982
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: comes in, they hit print.

983
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,720
Speaker 3: And then put it. It's like those the little street

984
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 3: kids that used to sell the newspapers like extra EXTRAE.

985
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 4: They're now waiting to deliver stuff.

986
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,879
Speaker 3: Oh wow, I'm deliver this right now.

987
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 2: And what are they delivering? A report that Ellen McGuinty

988
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 2: does not want to be found.

989
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 3: Correct, which apparently was not on the site.

990
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 2: Like that's all we get.

991
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: You do say later that she's not your mom. You say,

992
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 1: it's why don't I know that?

993
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 2: Is it a genetic that? How do I we know

994
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 2: that it's not her.

995
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 4: I don't think that matters. The ghost tells.

996
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 5: You, the male delivers truth, and then the ghost delivers

997
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 5: the other.

998
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: Truth, confirmation of the truth. Maybe Ellen mc guinty is

999
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 1: the stripper.

1000
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 5: Why how do we like Because because Ellen mc ginty

1001
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 5: was a wife of his right, whereas the stripper was

1002
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 5: just somebody he slept with.

1003
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: And he doesn't say.

1004
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 3: That he doesn't know. Yeah, oh hummm, I don't know.

1005
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: Sean nods yeah, and then presses the search button without hesitation.

1006
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: The room does not seem excited. Now we're in the

1007
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 1: student union. Eric is prepping Rachel as I forgot she

1008
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 1: was on the show. Eric is prepping Rachel as the

1009
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: rest of the group watches on. When the firecrackers go off,

1010
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: Rachel runs inside the house and yells. Rachel robotically recites

1011
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 1: her lines. The Japanese are attacking. The Japanese are attacking

1012
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:03,720
Speaker 1: Eric her lackluster performance, It admits, oh wow, okay, see,

1013
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: I don't believe you. She counters, singing, I don't believe you.

1014
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: Eric insists this will work. Daddy will run outside because

1015
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 1: he's a Navy seal. Corey shouts not and Eric snaps

1016
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,439
Speaker 1: back shut and stomps over to his brother. You gotta

1017
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: get your cakes. That's the only job is to get

1018
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,240
Speaker 1: the cakes. You got that, squirt. I love this moment,

1019
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,919
Speaker 1: Corey grins. I like when you call me squirt, which

1020
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 1: I think I also remember that moment.

1021
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 2: Well, it's also it's a callback to a Corey Shawan moment.

1022
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 1: Is it's squirt? So good? They give each other an

1023
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 1: enthusiastic high five. As Shan walks in carrying a manilla envelope,

1024
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 1: he announces, I hold in my hand the research result

1025
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: of one Elaine McGinty hunter. I have a mother. She's

1026
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 1: in here. Angela encourages him to open it, and now

1027
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,720
Speaker 1: everyone else reason excitement, except for Christy.

1028
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:02,600
Speaker 2: Result.

1029
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 4: Okay, twenty four hours. You got it.

1030
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: Apparently, except for Corey, who sarcastically adds, yeah, open it,

1031
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 1: because things are going great and everybody's happy. We're all

1032
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 1: getting along and who wants that. Sean doesn't get him,

1033
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 1: but Cory just gives a fist pump and half command Yeah,

1034
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 1: open it. Sean quickly pulls out the results and starts reading,

1035
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 1: how about that these hunters are tricky people must be

1036
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 1: in our blood If a hunter doesn't want to be found.

1037
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 1: She won't be found, so she's not found. Angela isn't

1038
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: admitting defeat. Maybe we could just try again. I know,

1039
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 1: well she I'm married again. She's married right, not by blood?

1040
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 2: What am I talking about?

1041
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 3: Like?

1042
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 1: I know?

1043
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 3: I have a question for the two directors that both

1044
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 3: directed sit comes. If you had the opportunity to direct

1045
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 3: a Boy Meets World, would you have preferred an earlier

1046
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,800
Speaker 3: Boy Meets World where the scripts were better but we

1047
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 3: weren't as fun and lucid relaxed, or a later Boy

1048
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 3: meets World where we're like having fun and trying to

1049
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:08,879
Speaker 3: make each other laugh?

1050
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 4: Which ones would you have picked?

1051
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 1: I'll take green any day. Good writing and green actors.

1052
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,720
Speaker 1: That sounds like a joy.

1053
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 5: It's so much better to be in that situation than

1054
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 5: like pro actors and not good material, because then you're

1055
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 5: then you're then you're trying to convince actors to do

1056
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 5: things that you also don't believe is worth doing. You're like,

1057
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 5: why does my character walk over to this side of

1058
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 5: the room and say this thing? You have to like, yeah,

1059
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 5: I got to come up with it because you're like

1060
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 5: and you know there, yeah, there reaches a point where

1061
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 5: we're like, just do it, just say it.

1062
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but I don't. Yeah, that's the worst position

1063
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 2: to be in. The director.

1064
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 1: I hate it when that happens. When because I go

1065
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 1: in every single day with my hope being I am

1066
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:58,920
Speaker 1: going to help these actors believe what they are going

1067
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 1: to do today with I'm gonna they are gonna believe it.

1068
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: And by the way, if they're not believing it, we're

1069
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 1: gonna work on it. We're gonna work on it together

1070
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: untill they do believe it. So if I if I

1071
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,799
Speaker 1: put them in blocking that they don't like and they go, ah,

1072
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,319
Speaker 1: this doesn't feel right. I don't want you to do it,

1073
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: then what would you do. Let's figure something else out.

1074
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: Let's dig in together, let's let's come up with it.

1075
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 1: But if if at the end of it, what it

1076
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,439
Speaker 1: keeps going back to is but why am I even

1077
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 1: doing this? And I can't I don't know it either

1078
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: because I'm like ooh, and by the way, for the

1079
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 1: most part, you an actor. I worked with an actor

1080
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: on a show who's an adult on a kids show

1081
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: who needed motivation, like the very stereotypical what's my motivation?

1082
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 2: I mean, for every line.

1083
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 1: For everything, but what is my motivation? And I prided

1084
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: myself on that show of like I the amount of

1085
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: motivation I come up with off the top of my

1086
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 1: head is should be studied. It's unbelievable how quickly I

1087
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,160
Speaker 1: can throw something out and she'd go, oh, yeah, make

1088
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: sense for that, and I'm like, make sense right, So yeah, it's.

1089
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 5: And nine times out of ten is that confidence that

1090
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:10,720
Speaker 5: they need. It's not the actual answer, right that somebody

1091
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,319
Speaker 5: has an answer? Yeah, yes, yeah, and great.

1092
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:14,959
Speaker 1: Now I can put that in my head and I'll

1093
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: deliver it with the confidence you just did and and

1094
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 1: will be good. So when you when I can't even

1095
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: come up with an answer, come up with it. I'm

1096
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,080
Speaker 1: like this, you know, yeah I And then I say,

1097
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: do you want me to bring it up? Do you

1098
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,759
Speaker 1: want me to talk about it? And I will. I will,

1099
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 1: because again I feel like part of the biggest, the

1100
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: most important part of my job at the end of

1101
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 1: the day is protecting the actors. Of course, it's to

1102
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:42,880
Speaker 1: deliver the product the showrunner wants. But I am the

1103
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 1: liaison and the voice to the showrunner for the actor

1104
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: unless the actor says no, I will do it. That's

1105
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 1: what I always ask I'm not going to share what

1106
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: we're talking about unless you want me to. But sometimes

1107
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 1: they don't want to be the person to say to

1108
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 1: the showrunner I don't like it, and they would rather

1109
00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 1: me do it, and so I always off for that. Anyway,

1110
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:02,320
Speaker 1: I'll stop talking about.

1111
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 5: You know how we talked about like the way that

1112
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 5: like Boy Meets World and then Girl Meets World, for sure,

1113
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 5: the characters become sort of self aware and like talk

1114
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 5: about themselves as characters, which this episode is another example of, like.

1115
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 2: Sean's gonna do the Sean thing unless she's less Sean,

1116
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:23,120
Speaker 2: like because you're the one who always does that. I

1117
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:24,840
Speaker 2: realized it actually.

1118
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 5: Is the show becoming the Writer's Room, Like it's it's

1119
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 5: the characters.

1120
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 1: Mattson wrote an episode where he got to do the

1121
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: map the writer strong Sean thing. Yeah, it's like.

1122
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 5: They're sitting there having conversations as the writer's room and

1123
00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 5: then realizing, well, this conversation can just be the scene,

1124
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,440
Speaker 5: which is like it was such a weird writing thing

1125
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 5: that happened to Boy Meets World because like if you

1126
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,360
Speaker 5: went back, what they would have is they would have

1127
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 5: those kinds of conversations then figure out how to make

1128
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,319
Speaker 5: the characters naturally do those things, but instead they just

1129
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 5: decided to have the characters talk like writers in a

1130
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 5: writing room talking about their situation.

1131
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 2: And that's what's so infuriating about. It's like by season

1132
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 2: seven and then all I think all of Girl Meets World.

1133
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,840
Speaker 5: That's what the show is is a bunch of writers

1134
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 5: sitting around being like, well, I'm the character who does this,

1135
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 5: and you're the character who does that?

1136
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 2: How do we tell you? And it's weird.

1137
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 1: Yep, you're right. We could not shut up this episode.

1138
