Speaker 2: I feel like we've hit a stride of just really

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: good team television.

16
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:00,959
Speaker 1: Right.

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and some of it, like this episode didn't have

18
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: a lot of teacher drama and that was sort of nice.

19
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: Right, except for except for mister Shoe, which is like

20
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:12,479
Speaker 1: a whole.

21
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: Yes, mister Shoes a hole. There could be a class

22
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: taught at Harvard about well, there's.

23
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: A TikTok an algorithm for it.

24
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's shoe talk. Shoe needs to be in prison petitions.

25
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 3: You know.

26
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: This.

27
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,839
Speaker 1: You're right, we hit a stride. There's a lot happening,

28
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: but it's moving forward, like there's we're leading up to

29
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: a school musical and class run for class president, and

30
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: I just it's it all feels like the stakes are

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: in high school like this, this is like feels like

32
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: what it was like for me. I was doing a

33
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: school musical, I was running for class president. Like this

34
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: all feels very real to me.

35
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: Did you run for class president? I was class president?

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 2: That's right? So this really is relatable to you.

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're like, this is what I want to watch, Like,

38
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: this is what I fourteen year old you would want

39
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: to watch.

40
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 2: When we were doing it. Did you feel that way?

41
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: No, that's this is exactly the point I was going

42
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: to make very good Kevin. Watching this episode back yesterday

43
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: versus doing it, it's two different shows. To me, Yes,

44
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: I was like, this is crazy. This doesn't make any sense.

45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 1: The continuity doesn't work. Where this one I watched, I

46
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: was a fan, a viewer, and an emotionally invested viewer

47
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: like my my musical theater girl self with a big

48
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: dream to like go be on Broadway again, was like,

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: this is the episode. I was like, he's following his dreams.

50
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: He's not doing what the norm is. Mike Chang like

51
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: he's auditioning for the musical, like everybody's just going after

52
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: their dreams and it was like, oh yeah, like that's

53
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: glee to me.

54
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 2: There is such a disconnect for us, isn't there.

55
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: It's it's alarming how a disconnect is funny versus and

56
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: also have all fond of doing this episode. I was like,

57
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: this is gorgeous.

58
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: Yes, when the strike is over and we have more

59
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: actors back, I want to ask people, not just from

60
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 2: our show, but other shows if if they've gone back

61
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: to watch what they did, you know, sort of in

62
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 2: the same distance of time like we're doing right now,

63
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: like ten years twelve years previous, if they also felt

64
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 2: that where there's the show that you're working on, there's

65
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: the job, and then there is the thing that people

66
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: are watching at home.

67
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 1: And like if there's a complete disconnect us, I will say,

68
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: like watching myself, when I have like heavier episodes, I

69
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: cringe a little bit and I don't feel as invested.

70
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: But when I'm not in as many of the scenes,

71
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: I feel less.

72
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: Fully Yes, right, yes, it is like you can take

73
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: yourself out of it because you're literally not in it totally.

74
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: Do you think this will make you a better actor?

75
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: Well, I sure hopes I was a bath actor.

76
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: I just mean yes, yeah, in terms of like when

77
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 2: you when you get a script or you're auditioning for something,

78
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 2: or if you're on a show or a movie, being

79
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: able to play through lines right, that work through for

80
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: scene to scene or from episode one to episode whatever

81
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: it may be twelve or twenty two for the end

82
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 2: of the season, of being able to I feel like

83
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: I'm now learning watching this that I didn't really know

84
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 2: what I was doing.

85
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: That's funny because I.

86
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: Was.

87
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: I learned how to do that in school, so I

88
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: was trained in that. That's not what I learned about.

89
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: I learned about like how my face actually reads on camera,

90
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: like I learned, and not about like how to trace

91
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: and do my research and you know, tracking and kind

92
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: of the beats. It was like, this is how I

93
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: this is what reads, this is what doesn't read because

94
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: camera is so different than bare So it's like, oh,

95
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: that actually could have been bigger, that could have been smaller,

96
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: this could have been less, we could have been subtler. Here,

97
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: Like there are just moments where you're like, oh, I

98
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: didn't need to work as hard or I needed to

99
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: work harder.

100
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: Script analyzation. It works regardless of like what medium you're

101
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: doing it in, totally, but coming from theater, like you're saying,

102
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 2: coming from stage, that is a whole other lesson within itself, right,

103
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 2: thank you.

104
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: It was also frustrating to not be able to track

105
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: your character, Like, had I known the stutter was fake,

106
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: I would have done some things differently. So like in theater,

107
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: you get to do that, You get to put it

108
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: all out on paper for six weeks and then craft

109
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 1: your journey for the show. You're like, well, I hope

110
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: it goes this way, Like not everybody. You know, some

111
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: shows are planned out from season one to six, but

112
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: very few I think, like are like that. And so.

113
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 2: Or if there was like a JK. Rowling Professor Snape

114
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 2: type thing where he knew no end that wasn't published yet,

115
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 2: like he knew what his endgame was.

116
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right exactly. So you're just doing your best

117
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: and being in the moment. But I didn't. Yes, I've

118
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: learned a lot. I do think I would be a

119
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: better actor. I sure hope.

120
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: So I also see I really enjoy watching our friends

121
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: sort of grow in that way as well, totally, especially

122
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:49,679
Speaker 2: in this episode, Harry and Amber, Remember, was really because

123
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: we all started from a relatively the same place, yes,

124
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 2: and you can only work with what you're given, right,

125
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 2: and to see them sort of step into these storylines,

126
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 2: I think, challenge them totally. It was just really satisfying

127
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: and made me so proud watching.

128
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: And it felt like watching Harry. Not to speak for him,

129
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: but it felt like for watching Harry in this time,

130
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: who had been a dancer for most of his life

131
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: and was really trying to break into the acting scene

132
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: and bere have a more reputation as an actor and dancer,

133
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: this fella get mirrored it a little bit like you

134
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: started to see Mike Chang come out of his shell

135
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: and try and do more and be you know, not

136
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: just the dancer, but you know, auditioning for riffs. So

137
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: it was just a really cool episode, especially for Harry.

138
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: I felt like very his storylines really resonated this time around.

139
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 2: I thought Harry and Ambers' storylines were very meta for

140
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: several reasons. And I think obviously Ambers for all the

141
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: obvious reasons for Dream Girls doing that number.

142
00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: Oh, I got that number.

143
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: And to your point where you were just saying about Harry,

144
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: I couldn't help but think about you know what has

145
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: become of his career post Glee unbelievable, unbelievable.

146
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: And you.

147
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: See someone like Mike Chang go through, I'm like, this

148
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: could be little Harry in high school, and like, little

149
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 2: did he know that he was going to go from

150
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 2: dancing in an iPod commercial in an iPod commercial to

151
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: literally being on one of the most successful TV shows,

152
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: Gray's Anatomy not Glee, of all time and also movies

153
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 2: and yeah, and being in a Best Picture winner, and

154
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 2: so I it was really beautiful to watch that and

155
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 2: I felt so sentimental watching him play that out.

156
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: All Right, so let's get into talking about some of this,

157
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: because I feel like we could we could do two

158
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: things at once. This The number one song is Moves

159
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: Like Jagger Again.

160
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: Number one movie is Dolphin Tale. Fun fact that nobody

161
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 2: cares about that this was based off a dolphin that

162
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 2: I had grown up around.

163
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: No stop, that's very funny.

164
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,719
Speaker 2: I grew up going to marine biology camp in Clearwater, Florida,

165
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 2: and the marine biology camp was at a It wasn't

166
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 2: it was part of aquarium, but mostly rehabilitation center for

167
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: I love that, yeah, for aquatic sea life and animals

168
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 2: and things and that movie came out and I was

169
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: like that the name of that dolphin sounds familiar. It

170
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: was like, wait, that's the dolphin dead. Yeah, my entire life.

171
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 2: I grew up going there. And it was so nice

172
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 2: because they got so much more attention post that movie

173
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: because it wasn't just some aquarium. Like these people marine

174
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 2: biologists worked there and special and so they got some

175
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: money from that movie and helps them do their work.

176
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: Wow.

177
00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

178
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: In Glee News this week, members of the cast attended

179
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: the premiere of American horror story Murder House, and I

180
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: was at the Cinerama Dome Rip and Leah Chris and I, Amber, Harry,

181
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: Jama Dott and Ashley went. I feel like the other

182
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: reason why we maybe weren't there was either a we

183
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: were tired and didn't want to do a red carpet

184
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: or B we were shooting.

185
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel like at that point, if we got

186
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: invited to like you would have gone, Yes, we would

187
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: have gone, So we must have must have been working.

188
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 2: So this episode, like Jenna said, was directed by resident

189
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 2: Glee director Alphonso Gomez Rojon, written by Ian Brennan, and

190

00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 2: but wonderful performances from all four of them.

198
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: That was It's always nice to meet the parents.

199
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: Yea. And I like how we went from having barely

Speaker 2: any songs last episode to having six songs, very good songs, yeah,

201

Speaker 1: all over out here on my own and fix you.

204
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 2: I gotta say, I know this is out here on

205
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 2: my own is a big song. Everybody knows it.

206
00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: You didn't.

207
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 2: I sort of know it as someone who like hasn't

208
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 2: spent their life listening to it. Yeah, damn, that song

209
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 2: is so good. And also I know we know how

210
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: good Leah and Amber are, but we need to have

211
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 2: certain people tell that story.

212
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: Lord, this famous and bangers.

213
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 2: That is that? That song.

214
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: Out of that song, Yeah, that's that was probably the

215
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: most famous one next to famous.

216
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: I think, like what the whole time I'm like, there's

217
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 2: no bad there's no bad lyric in this.

218
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: There's some fun facts from this episode before we get

219
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: into the.

220
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 2: Meat that makes me angry.

221
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: Every issue Mercedes has in the episode could be associated

222
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: with pregnancy. That's right, causing some fancy believe that she

223
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: was pregnant. And she took to Twitter. She made here

224
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 1: that people knew that she said, ps Mercedes is not pregnant. Lmao. Okay, bye.

225
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 2: Very because it was very Yeah, pregnant cyts mm hmmm.

226
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: And this is the first and only episode to revolve

227
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 1: around Mike Chang Love that and where he sings two solos. Yeah,

228
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: Mike Chin sings two solos in one episode. Uh, this

229
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: is the first time. And those who audition for their

230
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,319
Speaker 1: chosen role with a West Side Story song, Rachel with

231
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: Somewhere Blame That, Something's Coming and Mike with Cool all

232
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: got their desired role. Maybe something to be said about

233
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: singing from the show cardinal rule musical theater kids do

234
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: not sing a song from the show unless instructed. Ever,

235
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: that's the difference between high school and the big Leaks

236
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: do not. Okay, just had to put that out there.

237
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 2: Yeah I didn't know that, so thank you do not.

238
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: Do not big no, No. I mean, look, who knows

239
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: what these days these kids are doing. I've been out

240
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: of the game for so long I don't even know anymore.

241
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: And then, however, the audition, the auditionees that did not

242
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: audition with a song from the show did not get

243
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: their desired role, although I guess Mercedes could be argued

244
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: that she did get the role, but she turned it down.

245
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: And this is the first episode since Hirography a thirty

246
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: three episode gap that Mercedes sings a solo, a duet,

247
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: and a solo and a group number in an episode

248
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: Thank you haesus because we need more Mercedes.

249
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that's too long. We need as much

250
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: Mercedes as possible.

251
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: What's going on in this episode, Kenny?

252
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So, after Mike gets quote unquote an Asian f

Speaker 1: Oh, we want to see what do you want to

260
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: start with?

261
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: Kevin, I think let's go with the namesake of the episode.

262
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: Let's talk about Mike and the Asian f I did

263
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 2: text you because my expectations were really high for this episode.

264
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: He said, it was so good and then in the

265
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: first five minutes there were so many that's rights.

266
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, oh my god.

267
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 2: And it's like, oh, you have an Asian one. Huh,

268
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 2: I make one, you make one. And then Exemeio also

269
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 2: references himself not having a dad. I was like, right,

270
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 2: let's right. Tropes and stereotypes.

271
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's exactly exactly. You can just save those for

272
00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: tardy takes.

273
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, moving on, Mike Harry in.

274
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: This episode is just award winning. I my heart like

275
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: was breaking for him, but also I'm so proud, like

276
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: empowered by him. I like I said, the musical theater

277
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: kid in me was just It's everything I needed in

278
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: my fifteen year old self to hear.

279
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 2: And your Tina was a good girlfriend. Also because I

280
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 2: mean Mike Changs Senior sits sound with Fickens and is

281
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 2: like thinks Mike is doing drugs because he had an

282
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: an And then finally reveals he thinks it's his girlfriend

283
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: that's the problem, and Fagan's reaction good. He looks up

284
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: and he's like yes, and then you have that whip

285
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 2: to you in the hallway.

286
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: The Vampiatina comes back first second time.

287
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 2: This is fuck.

288
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: I love it. I love it. I love doing it.

289
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: It's I think it's so funny. I love doing it

290
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: working with Iggball because we never really got to work together.

291
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: Aside from my racist line, I could have cut that out,

292
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: but I didn't. I just really enjoy Vampire Tina. I

293
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: love that Figgins is like deathly afraid of vampires. He

294
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: thinks they're real, Like, you know what, get me out

295
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: a gym class?

296
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: So smart? I was like, she's crafty, and I really

297
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 2: because Tina doesn't normally come off like that, Like she's

298
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 2: someone who's out there threatening the principle.

299
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: Right, but nobody knows about it. Nobody knows she does it.

300
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: She just does it, and.

301
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: It's always in the same spot, in the same hall

302
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 2: like he.

303
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: Just gets scared everything. Tina is going to be a

304
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: good girlfriend for another couple of episodes. She's really going

305
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: to support Mike in this whole thing with his parents,

306
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: which is I think not unrealistic. In the world of

307
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: musical theater, parents really have a hard time with you know,

308
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: kids doing pursuing the arts without a backup, because it's

309
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: scary and it's very hard.

310
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: So I like this storyline and it also lends to

311
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 2: some beautiful scenes.

312
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: Well, Harry dancing in that dance room.

313
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 2: With no music, Oh my god. I think that is

314
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,880
Speaker 2: one of the most powerful scenes on the show thus far,

315
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: because the show is never still right. The show does

316
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 2: not sit with silence ever, And I was so taken

317
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: aback by that. I kept thinking, Oh, where's the music

318
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 2: going to be? Like what's happening?

319
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: And I almost like some piano or something.

320
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I almost want to I wish I could

321
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 2: look at the script to be like, how was this written?

322
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 2: Was it intended to be like this? Or was this

323
00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 2: an Alfonso decision? But I love it. It was really powerful.

324
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: Either way, all fonds of decision are not all Fonso

325
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: put his pretty little pause all over it. Yes, And

326
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: I remember shooting it. It was a very quiet shoot,

327
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: like Harry had time, and you know, having these new

328
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: actor adult actors come in, you know, you're like you're

329
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: like stiffen up a little right, you want to like

330
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: put on your a game and with the parents. They're

331
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: both such excellent actors that like I get to work

332
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: for them later too, and like they're just great. So

333
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: everything felt a little bit like elevated for that scene

334
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: and quiet, and you know Fonsie, he really is very

335
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: focused when he works, and it was really quiet that

336
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: whole time, and I really liked it, and I liked

337
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: shooting that with Harry. It did feel different though, it

338
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: felt like out ofly like when we shot it.

339
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I think is nice because it is signed

340
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: something special to Harry's character mm because like you know

341
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 2: how people have a certain style of songs, the characters

342
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: always sing. He has a certain style of dancing, and

343
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 2: now I feel like has a certain style of performance

344
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,479
Speaker 2: now that he's been given that scene.

345
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: And then Harry's audition for or Mike Chang's audition for

346
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: you guys, did you watch that? Were you there for

347
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: a lot of that or no?

348
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 2: Yes? I believe so great.

349
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,440
Speaker 1: So charming, well the football players.

350
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 2: It was so backup d choreography phenomenal, and Harry just kill.

351
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: One of his best numbers I think in the show.

352
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 2: I think it might be his best number it really

353
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 2: is phenomenal special and it fits his voice. And I

354
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 2: really really liked seeing him be a lead in that way.

355
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 2: So he looked yeah, exactly this episode. First of all,

356
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:04,360
Speaker 2: a little hottie.

357
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: He looked like a leading man. I mean I buy

358
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: it as he should be. M h okay. And then

359
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: obviously we're bringing in the football players because Beast has

360
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: required them to dance, so that that integrated both.

361
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 2: There were some if you look closely, there were a

362
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: number of vocal journal and dancers on the football.

363
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 1: Team, maybe the same ones as the single ladies dancers.

364
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were back like they're not in the football

365
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 2: scenes in the locker room, but they will be dancing.

366
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 2: It's a lot of people to always have around, you know, totally.

367
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 2: So then Harry or Mike Chang, I like that we

368
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 2: both keep doing that mm hmm. Decides that obviously he's

369
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 2: going to audition, he's going to be in the musical,

370
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 2: and he's going to do it all and he wants

371
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 2: to dance. And his mom swed.

372
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 1: Moll I cried, good is she amazing? I mean amazing.

373
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: They're chemistry too. I liked having parents around. I'm not

374
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: gonna lie, I really enjoyed it. Even though they weren't

375
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 1: my parents, it felt like kind of my parents because

376
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 1: I was associated with my chain excellent actors again, like

377
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: it just like you kind of like, you know, push

378
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: your shoulders back a little bit. You're like, oh crap,

379
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: it could actually work.

380
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 2: That little dance they did was the sweetest thing. Oh

381
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 2: my god.

382
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: So just yeah, spoiler alert, Harry's gonna my chain's gonna

383
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: get riff woo duh, rightfully. So yes, okay, let's talk

384
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: about Mercedes. Oh boy, where do we begin.

385
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 2: I mean, Ambers showed up. Yes she did, I mean

386
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 2: she always does, or like she was not played. So

387
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 2: Mercedes encouraged by her boyfriend needing to like nail that audition,

388
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: and she's sort of taking it back when he's He's like,

389
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,719
Speaker 2: you are better than her, you deserve this. But at

390
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 2: the same time, she's struggling and Booty Camp showing up,

391
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 2: she's showing up late. She's you know, has all the

392
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 2: pregnancy symptoms. I can't symptoms like no, I mean, but

393
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 2: you know there are symptoms.

394
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: You get.

395
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: It was so odd, like all those things were so weird,

396
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 2: but you know, shee continuing his streak of really talking

397
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 2: to the students appropriate is not like letting her have

398
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 2: an inch. And after that sort of initial exchange between

399
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 2: Santana Shoe and Mercedes, Mercedes isn't having it. She goes

400
00:23:54,160 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 2: and nails that audition and that down and that's that song.

401
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: Well also just back cup singers.

402
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, all I could think about was you you guys

403
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 2: just stepped touching in the background.

404
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: Okay, once again had there and I somehow get canoodle

405
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: venagled into doing the backup vocals because we're like, sure,

406
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: we'll do it.

407
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 2: And I feel like you find out day of.

408
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: We absolutely found out the day of. I remember learning

409
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: those ease and literally sitting in my seat behind Amber

410
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: and me and Heather being like, all right, here we go.

411
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: And at some point you just get used to it.

412
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: Yeah you're like cool, I'll that go, Bamber, no problem.

413
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 1: But then why were we in our regular outfits in

414
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 1: her audition?

415
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: Well that's just like with when Mike Chang auditions in

416
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 2: the whole football team, the Letterman Jackets. You know, it's

417
00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 2: not it's supposed to be not a very affluent town,

418
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 2: you know, so to spend money on costumes or an audition

419
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 2: that is not your own audition yeah, whatever, we have

420
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 2: a full band and orchestra.

421
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: It's fine, it's just very funny. But I thought that

422
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: was really funny. We definitely learned that on the day,

423
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: those oohs and that stuff touching that was my prediction.

424
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: But happy to back Amber always.

425
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 2: So Mercedes nails are auditioned and sends the three of

426
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 2: us basically m off off to like deliberate and we

427
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: can't decide because they're both so so good, so we

428
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 2: make them do basically have a callback.

429
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: And I didn't realize that you guys were together so

430
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: many episodes, the three of you, Like I forgot like

431
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: this was a series of episodes, that this was the storyline.

432
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 2: Kind of That's why it's so fun because so much

433
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 2: of I feel like the gleast are started and wrapped

434
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 2: up with in a single episode. Yes, yes, so it's

435
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: nice to have something carry over a bit.

436
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. No, you're totally right. Yes, they do

437
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 1: a callback and you make them sing seminole Broadway out

438
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: here on my own.

439
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: I also you see me during Amber's performance and like

440
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 2: moving my shoulders and samar producers like I'm imagining that

441
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 2: was just your real reaction. Obviously, anytime anyone's performing, you're

442
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 2: getting my real reaction because you are feeling it. Yeah,

443
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 2: there's no way they have They're a bump in the

444
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 2: music on these big speakers, and you just have to

445
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: give you a reaction, like I'm a student, Artie's a

446
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 2: student watching his friends, and I'm a friend of these

447
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 2: people in real life, and I just could not. Luckily

448
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: it worked with the storyline and I could not enjoy it.

449
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: They both killed it. Yeah, I love when a duet

450
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: is like this, you know, I think I got to

451
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: listen to that again.

452
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, thinking and I think this is underrated.

453
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: Yes, I agreed, it's so Yeah, and the song itself

454
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 1: is just excellent. So it's just it's a winner.

455
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 2: And I think what it does just like with their characters,

456
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 2: but also in real life, it shows their range and

457
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 2: ability the two of them, like they're just masters totally

458
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 2: at that and but they're so different, but they used

459
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 2: to do the same thing but just.

460
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 1: With their own flair. Yes, yeah, no, really special, this

461
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,239
Speaker 1: one was special. Yeah, we sive that for the end

462
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: of the season.

463
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: We're only in episode three.

464
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know. So because you guys

465
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:59,959
Speaker 1: can't decide because the peanut gallery can't decide. They just

466
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,400
Speaker 1: decided to split cast and or double cast, sorry, where

467
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: you split the role and you're doing they're doing two

468
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 1: weeks of performances. I have to say that is a

469
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: very long time for high school it's usually two weekends.

470
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: But okay, but all right.

471
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 2: Uh.

472
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: And Mercedes not so polite lead declines the she knows

473
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: she was better or thinks she was better, and Rachel knows,

474
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: and Rachel knows and Rachel was great. That's the thing. Look,

475
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: if you're looking at cast, you know, type cast, go

476
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: for it. If you're not looking at type cast, go

477
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: for it. Like there's there's two ways to look at this, right, But.

478
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did like Rachel knowing and like acknowledging.

479
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: We had to kind of have that in the show.

480
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 2: Because that has been very it's been the opposite of

481
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 2: that up right now, right, I do want to talk

482
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: about though. Right before that, there was that storm out

483
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 2: that leads into the dream Girl's number. Let's talk amber.

484
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 2: The way she lays into Shoe, lays into everyone. I

485
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 2: was pushes over the music. I was shocked and it

486
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 2: is so good. She also thought she was.

487
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: Going to get a little bit in trouble by mister

488
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: Shoe because mister Shoe can't speak that way to the students,

489
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: but like students also can't speak to authority figures that way.

490
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: You're right, not back in the day, maybe now.

491
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like every scene she was in. We had

492
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 2: that scene with Rachel when Rachel when they find out

493
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 2: they have the callback, and Rachel goes to Huger and

494
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 2: she puts up her finger, which Amber doesn't realize.

495
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: It's very funny.

496
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 2: But she was in command of every scene she was in,

497
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 2: and it was it felt good to see yes, former

498
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 2: cities and for Amber, yes, we clearly have a hard

499
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 2: time separating care from real truth.

500
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, like you watched them grow and

501
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: then you see them do the scenes and you watch

502
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: it on TV and you're like, wow, I watched that that.

503
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 2: Monologue into dream Girls twice. I had to run it back.

504
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: So Dream Girl's number was funny because it's basically it's

505
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: an ensemble kind of weird number, right, talking number that

506
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: leads into and I'm telling.

507
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: You, yes, it's weird. You'll get that.

508
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't get that. I did see him do it,

509
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: and it was I got that. But it was a

510
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: weird day. It's a really weird day. It took a

511
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: long time for us to get ready, and then the

512
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: girls waited around for a long time, so me, Diana

513
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: and Naya didn't do much, and so they shot for

514
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: a really long time without us.

515
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 2: What were they shooting?

516
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: The boys like the first half and then it came

517
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: around to.

518
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 2: Us because it really feels like you're in almost.

519
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: But we waited around for a really long time. So

520
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: we were hanging out in Candy Kan Lane, which is

521
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: like this little alley way that we named candy Kan Lane,

522
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: so that telling you where to find us when we

523
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: were hanging out in between scenes and like when we

524
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 1: were off.

525
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a way to find some peace and price.

526
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: I was in kiddy Can Lane for most of the day. Wow,

527
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 2: looking glamorous, very glamorous. We had like oh deya from

528
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 2: that it's that day. Yeah, yeah, yes, that's the photo.

529
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: Anyway, we'll post all these photos. But that was a

530
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: really fun one to shoot and also just to like

531
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: support Amber and her like awesome storyline.

532
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 2: So good. And then she ends up because she takes

533
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 2: some she rejects the role and then we finally, oh

534
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 2: my god, finally get the start of the Trouble Tones

535
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 2: I and she walks into that classroom like yes.

536
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: Yes, and you see it on Shelby Horker in Space.

537
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 2: Yes, We're about to make hits.

538
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: I also need to talk about Booty campfell within this

539
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: storyline because Booty Camp the one where Tina magically appears.

540
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 1: In Booty Camp, everyone does right, Everyone's there for some reason.

541
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: It was a fun day to shoot. Anyway, I hurt

542
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: my finger on the floor when we get down on

543
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: the floor, my finger bent back. I had to go

544
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: to the medic at Paramount and I had to be

545
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: in a handbrace. So for like the next few episodes,

546
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: I had this handbrace I had to wear off camera.

547
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: It was insane and I would go out with Naya

548
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,479
Speaker 1: his handbrace.

549
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: Jena, because you look at that Booty camprig What are

550
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 2: these moves?

551
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: I know? And of course I get on the floor yourself,

552
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: my hand, my thumb bent backwards.

553
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 2: Only they had everyone jumping on trampolines.

554
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: And the next scene they have me. In the next episode,

555
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm in a hand race. I don't know if I

556
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: wear it on camera, probably not, but wild. Yeah. Anyway,

557
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: thanks Woody Camp for nothing.

558
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm ready for Woody camp to be over personally, yeah,

559
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 2: I kind of hate it.

560
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: Okay, So the race for senior class also is heating

561
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: up because not only now is their Kurt and Brittany, who's.

562
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 2: Also got a bunch of stats about the patriarchy, love that,

563
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 2: but also Rachel. Mm hmm, this gets heated. She's flailing.

564
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: She's flailing, she doesn't know what to do, where to go,

565
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 2: she's fully panicked.

566
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: Well, she doesn't think. Rachel doesn't think that she's going

567
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: to get Maria after she watches Amber a Mercedes audition

568
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: and therefore desperately decides that she's going to run for

569
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 1: school president. This puts Finn in a pickle because of Kurt,

570
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: because Kurt asks who he's going to vote for and

571
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: Finn doesn't know, boom.

572
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 2: Boom, and Kurt is sort of like, I am doing

573
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 2: this out of the goodness of my heart. Basically, someone

574
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 2: like me being president could really change things for people

575
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,280
Speaker 2: up to the school. And then Rachel was just like, well,

576
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 2: I need the credit by my applications well.

577
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 1: And Kurt just yeah, really kind of digging in about

578
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: how this could be really important for the school and everything.

579
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: It's like Kurt felt very mature in this episode, as

580
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: our producer would say, because it felt like giving up

581
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: and like you said, giving Blaine flowers and kind of

582
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: just you know, conceding to the whole tony thing and

583
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,439
Speaker 1: which I didn't always take Kurt to just sit back

584
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: and allow that. So like, this was really nice to

585
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: see you. It was very giving and selfless. And then

586
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: also having this like nuture conversation about like what this

587
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: could do for the school versus like the credits that

588
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: he wanted to get for Nada.

589
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 2: Blaine's line was correct. Every time he thinks he's going

590
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 2: to zig, He's totally right.

591
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: I wasn't actually watching when that happened, and I heard it,

592
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: and I went, uh.

593
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 2: Huh, I have a question. Yeah, I just I'm wondering

594
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 2: for viewer purposes, like when you see those exterior stairs

595
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 2: and hallways in like the outdoor lunch area where we

596
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 2: perform sometimes like does that work? Does that read like

597
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 2: a normal school in Ohio to you?

598
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: Or like does it feel like an extension of McKinley

599
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: or does that feel separate?

600
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 2: Because it feels so separate for us, very separate. I

601
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 2: mean it it is like three different high schools that

602
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 2: we use sometimes. And also it feels very California or

603
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 2: southern California to me to have schools that are built

604
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 2: that way and there's so much outdoors where, like like

605
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 2: our when I went to high school in California, moving

606
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 2: from Texas, Like our hallways were exterior hallways, and so

607
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 2: just like Bernstein and we were shooting that whole stairwell

608
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 2: outside and people were eating outside, and it's like, is

609
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 2: this do I buy this as Ohio? I don't know.

610
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: Wait, I have a fun fact. So my my tailor

611
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: who was doing a dress for a wedding and then

612
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: I'm going to her and her son, he's grown now,

613
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: he's probably in his twenty mid twenties, he just finished college,

614
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: said that they growing up back when we were doing Glee.

615
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: They went to the Staples Show to see us, and

616
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: they watched the show together right when it was airing originally.

617
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: And I saw her yesterday and she said, my son

618
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: went to Ohio for a wedding. Now he's from la

619
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 1: he's from Pasadena. She's like, my son went to Ohio

620
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: for a wedding. That's where Glee was like, that's his

621
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 1: theiation with Ohio, which I thought was so funny, like,

622
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: coming from California, They're like, well, Glee was.

623
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 2: Here, Yeah, Glee was set here. I've had a couple

624
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 2: of people say that to me recently. I was shocked,

625
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 2: and I can firmly say that was never in our

626
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 2: minds but never, we never thought that about the show

627
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 2: taking place in Ohio.

628
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: And then also that like, people's associations with Ohio are Glee.

629
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but of course they are because I watch shows

630
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 2: and I know what city that take place in, and

631
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 2: I think about them every time I go there.

632
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: Totally okay, anyway, sidebar, I just wanted to share that

633
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: little tidbit.

634
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 2: I think it's that is important to note though.

635
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: So the class president thing is all great, but more importantly,

636
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 1: run the world.

637
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:58,959
Speaker 2: Lord, I was watching this screaming holler in. First of all,

638
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 2: do you know the level of dancer supremacy we have

639
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 2: in this I know Beyonce's real dancers, Lady Gaga's real dancers,

640
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 2: justin Timberlake's real dancers. We have Pink's real dancers. That

641
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 2: was ever crazy. We have Taylor Swift's dancers. Like, we

642
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 2: have all the best of the best dancers dancing with

643
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 2: the best dancer on the show. And it was.

644
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: Again this and out here on my own this song

645
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: it goes into the top, not the song song, but

646
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: the performance. Joking, are you joking?

647
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 2: That shot Feather, the first shot of her in the

648
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 2: auditorium auditorium sorry, the gym Superstar.

649
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, in the side hallway,

650
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: I know this dance really well in my mind. I

651
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: started doing it, yeah, because I forgot I was in it.

652
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 2: I'm only in like one section of it too, Like

653
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: I don't even think I was there when you guys

654
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 2: did the stuff in the gym gym. My only in

655
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 2: real life interaction was just when they come to the

656
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 2: classroom and I was so mad because I wanted to

657
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 2: see it all.

658
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: Oh my god it was I was hollering. I was

659
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: so excited. This made me so happy. And this is

660
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 1: when I texted you I think I've ran around this time.

661
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: I was like, already, we're here, we are here. This

662
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,959
Speaker 1: episode is just giving me everything. It was so.

663
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 2: Good, just the way like Beyonce has a certain like

664
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,720
Speaker 2: pose how she stands that is like her power pose.

665
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 2: Heather has the same thing. Yeah, and they do like

666
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 2: that pushback in the gym and she's like, you know,

667
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 2: the weights on one hip and those heels. You're like, yeah,

668
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 2: to go literally round the world please. I texted Diana

669
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 2: because I was like, you gotta see yourself doing this.

670
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 2: But I just text her. Okay, she has not texted

671
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 2: me responded yet, but she I've never seen her dance harder.

672
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 2: She looked like she was all, you look like you

673
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 2: were living your life when all the dancers go down,

674
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 2: and it's like her and her hands are up like

675
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 2: that is Diana. I was full Diana in real life.

676
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: We were living because like we were just surrounded by

677
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: like people going so hard and it was so much fun.

678
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 1: It was really fun. I really loved shooting that. I

679
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: forgot I was in it, but I was like, oh, yes,

680
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 1: like that was that day because I confused that one

681
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 1: with what's the number we do later? Womanizer?

682
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I can't even imagine getting to dance in

683
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 2: their company.

684
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,280
Speaker 1: I know it was a lot of people.

685
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 2: Oh wow, powerful.

686
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: Yes, very anyway, that had to be a feature feature moment.

687
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 2: Crazy.

688
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: And then we've got this other storyline with Will and

689
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: Emma and how Will is feeling a little down that

690
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 1: he hasn't met Emma's parents yet, and for good reason,

691
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 1: Emma has avoided it, but will takes it upon himself

692
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: to surprise her bring her parents over for dinner. Not

693
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: doesn't end well.

694
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 2: No, not a great idea. Also, ginger supremacy.

695
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: I can't with that. It's just it's so strange and weird.

696
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 2: But it does remind me of like early Glee mmmmmmmmmm.

697
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 2: And so I do like it for that because it

698
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 2: feels like the weird, quirky stuff that we had just

699
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 2: in the first few episodes of the series.

700
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: Totally, and it does trigger Emma to like back to

701
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: her and original where we met Emma in the beginning

702
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 1: of Glee with her OCD, which was so sad it

703
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: was actually it was weird, right, like the whole story

704
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 1: was weird. But it was also great to see Jima

705
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: giving us some acting moments range and then mister Hue,

706
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: even though this was his fault, supporting her during these

707
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: really tough moments, and him getting down on his knees

708
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: to pray with her, and then getting into fix.

709
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 2: You before we talk about fixing you.

710
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: I can't even watch it without laughing.

711
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 2: No, I couldn't watch it without laughing. I was really scared.

712
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: I scanned ahead to see, like what was coming up

713
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 2: was like, oh, no, good shot to fix you. They

714
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 2: got good shots of us and fix you. None of

715
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 2: us looked too crazy. No, But I thought Jaima was

716
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 2: phenomenal this episode. Those scenes where we're talking about who

717
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 2: we should cast, she had some, and all the scenes

718
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: between the teachers and the teachers lounge had some. The writing,

719
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 2: I think the teachers in this episode just really minus Shoe,

720
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 2: was really like sweet, saying really complimentary things about the

721
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 2: students therefore like the characters that we've seen grow, and

722
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 2: it was just really I really enjoyed that for some reason,

723
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's one of my favorite parts of

724
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 2: the episode. I also think Dot was incredible.

725
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: The line. Her line, it was one of the hardest

726
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 1: decisions in my life, and that includes when I had

727
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: to sell one of my two two prize donkeys to

728
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 1: pay my gas bill. I sold kim By cat cloth.

729
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 2: Also, she had to eat that bowl of pasta so gnarly.

730
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: What I chicken at least is like, yeah, I don't know,

731
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: I don't know which ones worse, to be honest, because

732
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: it's both like like TV food, it's not like a

733
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: whole food, it's chicken, you know.

734
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, true but I thought Dot was so funny, and

735
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 2: also she's sort of steering the ship and a lot

736
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 2: of these storylines. Truly, Yes, props to Jama beautiful work.

737
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 2: But also it was Will's fault. He should he was

738
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 2: taking advice from Beast right right steering the ship, but

739
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:14,760
Speaker 2: Beast didn't have all the information.

740
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 1: No, she didn't. I don't know. Looks like freaky Dege's

741
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 1: coming down with a case of the cleanes. That's also

742
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: not okay. I hated these parents so much. Yeah, they

743
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: were so good, but they're they're like Quinn's parents or

744
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: Quinn's dad, you know, you're like, oh, cringe.

745
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,280
Speaker 2: It was nice to see more parents, though.

746
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 1: I know so many parents. Okay, fix you. We talked

747
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 1: about this before the oos. Okay, when you put all

748
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 1: of us together, which we haven't been together a lot

749
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,439
Speaker 1: in this episode on Risers not doing very much, that's

750
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: the problem. There's not a lot of focus because we

751
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 1: don't have a to do, so we have to stand.

752
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: There were never just standing there, so we do oohs

753
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: and all the oohs. At the end, when Matt singing

754
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: his very emotional number, we're behind him singing off key,

755
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: really really badly and loudly.

756
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 2: It was so unprofessional and we yelled at us.

757
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: He was like, come on, you guys, like focus, Matt

758
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 1: has to cry once again. We're doing something well, Matt

759
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 1: has to cry, and we're getting in trouble for it.

760
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: But it was so funny. It will go down in history.

761
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: It's like one of my favorite moments of like working

762
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,879
Speaker 1: with everybody because it's we're all trying to make each

763
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 1: other laugh and it was it was really hard to watch.

764
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 2: They really edited that magically beautifully because I don't think

765
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:50,760
Speaker 2: I was looking for a shoulder.

766
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 1: We like shoulders were shaking, people were crying.

767
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 2: There were a few and I could have just been

768
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 2: projecting here, like searching for something that didn't exist. But

769
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 2: on Harry's face and Chris's face, like the slightest it

770
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 2: was knowing smiles and like twinkle in their eyes. I'm

771
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 2: on the brink.

772
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 1: LEA looked was looking down in one of them, and

773
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, I don't know. Yeah, there's

774
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 1: a few of us that were tells that like maybe

775
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,720
Speaker 1: other people couldn't tell, but they're tells for us. Oh God,

776
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:35,880
Speaker 1: I will never get over that. Sorry, Fansie, I know us.

777
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:42,720
Speaker 1: He never cared either though, He's like whatever that you guys,

778
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:46,280
Speaker 1: It is pretty much the episode.

779
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this season so far.
