Oh That's 670 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 2: why it's confusing to me, because I remember watching them 671 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,439 Speaker 2: film it and I was there because we shot all Yeah, 672 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:49,479 Speaker 2: I don't but I don't know why. 673 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: Why were you there? 674 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 2: I have no idea you weren't just hanging. 675 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: And Jenna, you're doing backup for this number two. 676 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:56,800 Speaker 4: It's incredible. 677 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you. 678 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to look this up. 679 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,280 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you. I remember the outfit. I remember 680 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: a lot of things by like either the location we 681 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: were at or my costume. And so now I'm like, okay, 682 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: this is semi familiar. But we did so many prompts 683 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: they all like, you know, they meshed together. But yeah, okay, 684 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 1: now I remember this. We have a lot of photos 685 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: from this problem. That's where everybody dressed up. Okay, is 686 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: it that one? I couldn't say, Okay, what Andrew?

A rumor has 691 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 3: someone like yes, and then like and I feels landslide. 692 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,280 Speaker 3: I mean you can't go well. 693 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 1: Ah, that's like those are all solid, solid choices. 694 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 3: We need to We need to decide what our collective 695 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 3: opinion the best song. 696 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 4: On Glee at the end of the day. 697 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 2: Some middle ground somewhere, some compromise. Do you judge these 698 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:13,320 Speaker 2: off of just the performance alone? Like what is actually 699 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 2: or is it the version of the song or is 700 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 2: it how it works in the storyline or all those 701 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 2: things considered. 702 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 5: All of it vibe vibe vibes. 703 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 704 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 3: I respect that we've we've like not moved songs through 705 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:32,399 Speaker 3: because of bad plan outfits. We have not put through 706 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 3: songs because Shelby A. Dina Benzelle is in it and 707 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 3: she is the true villain of Glee. It just really depends. 708 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: Okay, It's like whatever you say goes. 709 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 2: This is okay, this is so great though, sorry, I 710 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 2: don't want to go I have more questions because we 711 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 2: were always so insulated. And when we have, you know, 712 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 2: interactions with people who watch the show, it's usually high, 713 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's so nice to meet you. Can 714 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 2: we take a picture. And that's basically the extent of it. 715 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 2: And so hearing the real opinions that are not on 716 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 2: Tumblr or Twitter is very. 717 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: Fascinating, Like, for example, run Joey Run. It's it's a 718 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 1: it's a big thing for people, and I don't think 719 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: either of us realized what an iconic number that was 720 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:26,720 Speaker 1: for people. 721 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 3: It's age like fine wine truly really, Oh. 722 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 4: The camp that is look camp in its eyes. 723 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Borne, run Joey, run to the met. 724 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 4: Exactly.

I just 727 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 2: like to hear it. Yeah a good time. 728 00:40:54,600 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 3: Shell Oh gosh, Shelby is just like she well, I 729 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 3: mean the Puck storyline in season three. Obviously you haven't 730 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 3: you haven't gotten there yet. I don't know if you 731 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 3: recall the extent of how terrible it is that she 732 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 3: does fully have like a pretty consistent relationship with We 733 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 3: are consistently told that he's eighteen. But that does not 734 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 3: justify anything. But I feel like you can talk more 735 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 3: to the Rachel plot in season one and how she 736 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 3: messed up that. 737 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, she. 738 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 5: Uses Jesse as a ploy to get Rachel to contact her. 739 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 5: She's like, oh, I'm ready to have this relationship with 740 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 5: my daughter.

And then within the episode they meet 743 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 5: and then by the end Shelby's like, you know what, 744 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 5: I met you and actually I'm good. 745 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: I didn't need a daughter. 746 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 4: I actually don't need. 747 00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 2: A daughter back. 748 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this makes I would have a new daughter. 749 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Actually. 750 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 4: I want again. 751 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 2: Yeah.
