Speaker 2: in Town Meeting with Myself furn Susanne. Hello, Hi, Let's

6
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: get into season three, episode eight, Let the Games Begin,

7
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 2: which aired on November nineteenth, two thousand and two.

8
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 3: Yes, so this episode picks up immediately after the end

9
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 3: of the last episode, like they're taking the banner down. Yeah.

10
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: So I watched them back to back because of the

11
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,200
Speaker 2: holiday the way we recorded this, we ended up doing

12
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: it back to back, and I was like, what a

13
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: great episode to watch right after because like the first

14
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: scene out, they're limping the morning after the dance marathon.

15
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. So we talked in the last episode about the

16
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 3: whole timing of the dance marathon itself. But I have

17
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 3: another timing issue I need to talk about here. Okay,

18
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 3: So when the when the episode opens, it's Monday morning

19
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 3: because Rory's in her school uniform, and we saw the

20
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 3: sign both in the last episode and in this opening

21
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 3: scene that says the dance marathon is Saturday six am

22
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: to Sunday six am. And Laura. I says to Rory,

23
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 3: you've been up for twenty four hours straight, but she

24
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: hasn't because the dance marathon ended Sunday morning and now

25
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 3: it's Monday morning, so they had all day Sunday and

26
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 3: all night Sunday night to sleep. I mean yeah, immediately

27
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: after the dance, like it's twenty four hours later.

28
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: But I could I could picture it being like.

29
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: They were doing like maybe she was studying on that

30
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 2: Sunday and barely slept, you know, yeah maybe, Like I mean,

31
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: think about it like a big weekend like that, Like

32
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: you're not getting a full, full, full, full night.

33
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: It's like a couple of days recover. So yeah, but

34
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: I go, yeah, saying.

35
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: Definitely they would be tired, but they have not been

36
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 3: up for twenty four hours too.

37
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah when I saw them limping.

38
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 2: So I've done a half marathon before, and I did

39
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: it the Disneyland would do the you know the runs

40
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 2: like the Run Disney, and so I did. This was

41
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 2: like twenty seventeen that I did it.

42
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: I will not be doing it now.

43
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 2: I remember we were staying at a hotel at Disney

44
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: and when I was done with the half marathon, I

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,839
Speaker 2: went obviously, like you don't sit right away, you walk

46
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: it off and like you know, and I went and

47
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 2: took a shower, and then after the shower, I sat

48
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: for a second and then got back up. And I

49
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: had to drive home that day because we weren't like

50
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: I'm not like the people who can like stay at

51
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: Disneyland all day and like enjoy the theme park like

52
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: no way. Well, my drive home was one hour and

53
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: getting out of the car after sitting for one hour, yeah,

54
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: like I I think I literally asked my dad to

55
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 2: come like hold my hands, like getting out of the car.

56
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 2: But that's what I reminded me of because I was like, oh,

57
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: that's the pain I remember.

58
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 3: Oh, I have only done five k's, Like I am

59
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: not a runner. I do not like running, but I've

60
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: done a couple five k's and been the same way.

61
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 3: I can't even imagine doing an entire ho marathon.

62
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 2: In my defense, I walked and jogged because it was

63
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 2: like that year, it was like the hottest day in

64
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 2: like the last five years at like that early in

65
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: the morning, and they literally made announcement like everyone please

66
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: like do not try to run, like just walk. Yeah,

67
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: and I will say I think I like walked most

68
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 2: of it and jogged like a quarter of it.

69
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but still it's still like, what is it thirteen

70
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: point one miles?

71
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's way more than I can.

72
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: I give people credit who do like multiple as I

73
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 2: couldn't do. If you want to, you listeners are runners

74
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: because no things. Yeah, I got my medal and that's

75
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: all that matters.

76
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: Anyway. But the jets and the rary is so awkward.

77
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole high By thing and the diner I

78
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 3: thought was funny because Luke was like completely oblivious, Oh yeah,

79
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: what's happening here?

80
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: And then go and then I like how at the

81
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: end it was like a call back to the high

82
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: bides or he like finishes it for them. Yeah, I

83
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 2: mean it's it's so funny because like they've been fine

84
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: with each other before and then suddenly like, yeah, they

85
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: don't know how to act.

86
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: It's like very like childish. I mean they were in

87
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: high school, so I get it, but you know, yeah, yeah.

88
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 3: It was kind of cute.

89
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm not a.

90
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 3: Jess fan, but I thought that was cute.

91
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought it was awkward. Yeah, I personally preferred

92
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: the final scene over anything else between going on between.

93
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: Them, Yes, the gas pump scene.

94
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 2: Yes, which, by the way, did you notice I was

95
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: watching this episode and you know how like usually I

96
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 2: was watching it on my phone just so I because

97
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 2: I was eating so I was like, let me just

98
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: do this at the same time.

99
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: Did you notice that, like at the beginning I think.

100
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 2: I think it's right when the episode starts, or maybe

101
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 2: it's right after the music it said like language and sex.

102
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: Did you see that? No?

103
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it says like because it's like viewer discretion

104
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: or whatever, like in the very corner of it, it

105
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 2: says like language and sex. And in my head, I

106
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 2: was like, well, before the episode started, I was like,

107
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 2: what is going to happen in this episode that I

108
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 2: don't remember? But it was alluding to that they were

109
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: up in like behind closed door. They may bee that

110
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: make sex okay, But it was just a really interesting

111
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: like I had never noticed that. Maybe I just never

112
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 2: noticed it before, but on this episode it says like

113
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 2: language and sex at the at the beginning of the episode.

114
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 3: Funny, I've never paid attention to that. I wonder what

115
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 3: they meant with the language though, Like.

116
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 2: I don't know, But I also I wonder if I

117
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: watched it on my phone this time. So I also

118
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 2: wonder if, like does it not show it on like

119
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: like your Netflix, AAP on your TV.

120
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 3: I don't know, I it does. I just never pay

121
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 3: attention to it.

122
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, I don't know. This one caught my eye

123
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: for some reason.

124
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: But that's why I was like, what's happening this episode

125
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 2: that I forgot about?

126
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 3: So there was some nice product placement, the coco Coca cola, yeah,

127
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: front and center, and also chocolate and coca cola sounds

128
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 3: terrible together. It does sound weird. I was wondering what

129
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 3: chocolate they were eating. I was because it looked like

130
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 3: it might have been garadelly because it looked like square

131
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 3: like squares.

132
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 1: Also sounded like they were breaking it off.

133
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 3: And they were in they were in red wrappers, you

134
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 3: know how like Gara Delly has the foil wrappers. That's all.

135
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: And it was Mini's right. It wasn't that big.

136
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, But when she when she took a sip of

137
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: the coke after eating the chocolate, I was like, oh

138
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 2: that was yeah, listen, I love a good soda and

139
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: a good chocolate not together.

140
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was interesting.

141
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: But I guess let's jump into the Yale of it all.

142
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought the whole thing was kind of crappy

143
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: of Richard. I understand why he did it, but I

144
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 3: hate that he and Emily are always tricking Rory.

145
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: Well which part because I actually wanted to break this

146
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 2: into two parts because I was sitting here and like

147
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 2: dissecting the episode into two parter. My part one was

148
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: he wanted to show her Yale where he went to school,

149
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 2: and that's fine, sure. My part two is the meeting

150
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 2: with the dean of admissions, So I kind of broke

151
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 2: it up into two. Do I think the first part

152
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 2: is crappy because he kind of threw it at her

153
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: and he knew Rory will say yes, yes. However, I

154
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: understood the intention, and then the second part I just

155
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: thought was one hundred percent crappy.

156
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I I think I get where he

157
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: coming from that he thinks he needs to steer Rory

158
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: through this college application process because he knows that Loralai

159
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 3: doesn't have the actual.

160
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: Which was so rude to say.

161
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: It's very it's rude and it's condescending, But at the

162
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 3: same time, I understand that's where his brain was and

163
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 3: that's why he did it, and he you know he

164
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 3: he isn't willing to just leave it to chance that

165
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 3: she's going to get into an Ivy League school. So

166
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 3: I kind of get that. But at the same time,

167
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 3: he totally manipulated her, and they do crap like that

168
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 3: to her all the time, and she lets them do it,

169
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 3: like the debutante ball. I mean, she knows. She even

170
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 3: said she knew they were manipulating her, but she doesn't

171
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 3: like she just lets them do it. She won't stand

172
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: up to them, which I was kind of glad she

173
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: stood up to him at the end, like after the interview.

174
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 3: So I don't know, I mean, I I mean, he didn't.

175
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 3: He didn't he knew at the beginning when he was

176
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 3: asking her to go see Yale with him, he knew

177
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 3: it was for the admissions interview, Like it wasn't like

178
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 3: he thought of that later and decided to schedule the

179
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 3: interview because they were going to be there anyways.

180
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: But do you think that he did that, Well, yes,

181
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: but I think that he did that once she said

182
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 1: yes to the first part.

183
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I feel like that's what he

184
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 3: was setting her up for.

185
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: See.

186
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: I thought that it was like and again, there are

187
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 2: probably so many different takes on this. My take was,

188
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 2: let me get her there. Now that she's there, let

189
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 2: me do part two. I think the first part was

190
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 2: to convince her what amazing campus is and this and that,

191
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 2: and then once she said yes, then he made his

192
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 2: phone calls. But I can understand your point as well,

193
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: is let me get her there and get her this

194
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 2: interview to get her the Yeah.

195
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 3: I just I always felt like that was why he

196
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 3: was asking her, because he was planning to get her

197
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:03,599
Speaker 3: this appointment.

198
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: Oh, I could see that.

199
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 2: I definitely just thought it was to get her there

200
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: to convince her. And then again like that's I guess

201
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 2: that's why I broke it up in my head, because

202
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 2: in my head it was a two parter.

203
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of see it more as like all

204
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 3: one thing. Like he had this reunion that he was

205
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 3: going to go to, and he probably thought, in his head, hmm,

206
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 3: I'm going to be at Yale. That would be a

207
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 3: perfect opportunity to get Rory to go talk to my

208
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 3: buddy the admission.

209
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: I know he's going to be there because I have

210
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: this reunion.

211
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, That's that's how I always interpreted it.

212
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 2: But I mean, and it was really shady that he

213
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 2: didn't even tell Emily. Yes, yeah, I mean the whole

214
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 2: thing was shady, but she.

215
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 3: Would try to well, man, she might not have tried

216
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: to talk him out of it.

217
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: Well. And that's the one thing that bothered me was

218
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: Emily didn't know.

219
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: And clearly that was obvious to loreli because at one

220
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: point she's like, well, Mom's face looks confused, so.

221
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: Like she isn't know. Yeah, but then when Emily's talking

222
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: to Lorelai, she still defended her husband. Yeah, and I

223
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: was like, you could have met you. I get defending

224
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: your husband, I get it, but she could have been like,

225
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: was he trying to do what's best for Rory in

226
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: his mind? Sure, but it was still a crappy thing

227
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 1: to do.

228
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

229
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: And she just can't see both sides, right, Yeah.

230
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 3: Well, I mean Emily just her mindset is always the

231
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 3: loural lives wrong.

232
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, so she can't see the other side.

233
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just exactly. She just naturally gravitates, you know,

234
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 3: towards what Richard says. But yeah, the whole thing, the

235
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: whole thing was crappy. Although it did it was I

236
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: did like the part where we got that little bit

237
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 3: of Richard and Emily's backstory. That was kind of cute,

238
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 3: the two of them, you know, flirting over the trash can, and.

239
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: It was very not Richard and Emily, which was kind

240
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: of nice, Like it was.

241
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was kind of surprising, like Richard was already engaged.

242
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 3: He said they had sent out the invitations all right,

243
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: So that was you know, surprising to find out that

244
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 3: Emily was you know, yeah, but they were cute. I

245
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: thought it was like kind of cute and floridian. They

246
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 3: looked happy and not snotty.

247
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 4: So yeah.

248
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: Also, was this UCLA or usc.

249
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 3: This I believe was one of the Pomona colleges. Oh yeah,

250
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 3: or it might have been occidental.

251
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: Jackie said it was Pomona College.

252
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: Okay, because the whole time, I again, I was so

253
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: into the episode, I didn't like click out of my

254
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: phone to go google it, and I was like it

255
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 2: was a beautiful campus by the way, and made it

256
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 2: very yaleish, Like it's like, you know, what's so funny,

257
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 2: Maybe my brain thinks of Yale and like all these

258
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: East Coast schools like this because of Gilmour girls. Hmmm,

259
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: because I've never I never went to those schools and

260
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: ever toured them, and I grew up in Los Angeles,

261
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 2: and so I was like, oh, it's so beautiful and

262
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: like fall and like stuff like that. It's so funny

263
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 2: because I'm like, I wanted to say, that's what I

264
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 2: think of when I see schools like Harvard or Yale.

265
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 2: But I guess I'd never seen anything besides like this

266
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: show or what they make it look like in other shows.

267
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 3: That's true, but you know it's trees and old buildings,

268
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 3: like you can make it look like whatever you want.

269
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean the giant yell sign in

270
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 2: my as a kid tale.

271
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 3: I did.

272
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: I did. Like.

273
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 2: The one thing I found very odd was when Emily

274
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 2: was so confused by Lorelei fixing her button with a

275
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 2: with a paper clip.

276
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'm like, what did you? Oh wait, paper clip?

277
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: I was thinking it was a bobby pin.

278
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 3: Oh I think it was a paper clip.

279
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, because I was just okay, paper clip makes

280
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: it more Yeah, okay that I think. When I heard

281
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: paper clip.

282
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: I thought bobby pin. I'm like, why is that so weird?

283
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 2: But now I guess it kind of makes sense. Also,

284
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: can a paper clip hold it together? I guess if

285
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 2: you really like work, I mean, it.

286
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 3: Depends if the thread is still there and you could

287
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 3: like loop it through the thread that was holding the button.

288
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe I think we're just supposed to

289
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 3: use our imagination.

290
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, no one again, no one's sitting here to dissect

291
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 2: this much.

292
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: Back in two thousand and two, yeah, yeah.

293
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole thing was kind of kind of weird,

294
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 3: like it just was kind of out of nowhere that

295
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 3: her button brakes.

296
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: Well, it was literally to get Rory and Richard alone

297
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 2: to talk for thirty seconds, like we could have done

298
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: something else. It was just it was also like the

299
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 2: bending over the trash, and that's how the butt I

300
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: was like, and she wasn't even bending, she just leaned forward.

301
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, so, and I speaking of getting Richard and

302
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 3: Rory alone together, that was a cute moment I thought.

303
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: When they were Richard was talking about how Laura la

304
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 3: used to take his diploma and she wouldn't give it

305
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 3: back and she said she was gonna go to Yale,

306
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 3: and then he got kind of misty, like he got

307
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 3: a little, you know, nostalgic, and he actually seemed to

308
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 3: show some emotion for his daughter, which I thought was

309
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 3: a unique change.

310
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: I liked that well not for long.

311
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's how it is with them. Now you

312
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: have one good moment and then they ruin it fifteen

313
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 3: minutes later.

314
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: Truly, not even fifteen minutes because solid seven.

315
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

316
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did feel bad for Rory though, when like,

317
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: as someone who's very type A, like I would freak

318
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: out if someone put me in a room with someone

319
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: I was not prepared, like she said, Yeah, like I

320
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 2: wouldn't have dressed like this, Like I think about those

321
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 2: things all the time, Like I would have prepared or

322
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: like I remember when I used to go to job

323
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: interviews or like stuff like that, Like I would like

324
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 2: practice in my car, like talking out loud things like

325
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: that that where you would or even like given give

326
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 2: yourself scenarios in your head of what they last you,

327
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: and then you prompt yourself with an answer.

328
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

329
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: And so I really did feel for her then, because

330
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: that sucks, like and Rory is so put together.

331
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: She was in by the way, not that she was

332
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: dressed poorly.

333
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 2: She was in jeans and a sweater, but like if

334
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 2: I were meeting the dean of admissions, I'd be wearing

335
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 2: something very nice.

336
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And Richard was so concerned with keeping the

337
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: whole thing a secret from everybody, that he didn't even

338
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 3: think about that impact on Rory. Yeah, exactly, and like

339
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 3: that she would have done it. All he had to

340
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 3: do was ask and she would have done it. Like

341
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 3: he didn't need to be sneaky with her about it.

342
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, And honestly, I don't think he was thinking about her.

343
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 2: I think he was thinking about himself. He wanted to brag.

344
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: I mean, he just in general wants to brag and say,

345
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: my granddaughter is going to Yale. Period. I don't think

346
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: he's ever thought about Rory in this equation.

347
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

348
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: But then they leave, and uh, I will say, listen,

349
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 2: Emily has some ringers. But her saying at the end, well,

350
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 2: didn't you think that she'd be able to live at home?

351
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 2: And I'm like, oh, Emily, like that was, yeah, you

352
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 2: knew what you were doing there. And then already Yeah

353
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 2: the end, at the end, both of them are looking

354
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 2: at well, think about it. That cab ride back to

355
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 2: stars Hollow probably made them both realize like, oh crap,

356
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: this is actually closer than we realize. Yeah, And at

357
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,719
Speaker 2: the end they both looked at the pamphlets and you know,

358
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the end, yeah, but I do

359
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 2: have a quick just to sidebar who is bringing tacos

360
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 2: to another restaurant.

361
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 3: Especially after like what a thirty or forty minute cab ride.

362
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: Like yeah, and also I just love that I thought

363
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: it and then Luke said it out loud like it

364
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: was just so obvious, like hello, like yeah, and then

365
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: she just like leaves. I mean obviously we know why,

366
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: but she just leaves her taco there.

367
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, two bites and then she's gone, speaking of leaving. Okay,

368
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 3: so we have the gas pump moment with that great

369
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 3: XTC song playing in the background. I have to give

370
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 3: that a shout out. That's on my favorite list on Spotify.

371
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 3: But then can we talk for a minute about her

372
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 3: climbing the tree and going to Dean's window? What the hell.

373
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 1: It was? You know?

374
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 2: It's so funny is I was like I was thinking,

375
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 2: and I'm like, I don't know if Suzanne's gonna like

376
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 2: think it's weird that I make this comment, but I

377
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 2: was gonna say, like, did you suddenly become athletic and

378
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 2: you climbed the trees?

379
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: Like would there a ladder? Like can we get and

380
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: then like to perfectly just sit there like and also

381
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: you could have just knocked on the.

382
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 3: Door, or like waited until the next.

383
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: Day, or thrown a pebble from the.

384
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 3: I don't know. The whole thing was so cringe, and

385
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 3: I get that she was trying to apologize, but it

386
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 3: didn't come out that way. I don't know. The whole

387
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 3: thing was just a really bad idea, and she could

388
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 3: have just talked to him like the next day, waited

389
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 3: for him after school, or something like tried to find

390
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 3: him at the market. I don't know. There's it's like

391
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 3: there were other ways she could have done that. It

392
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 3: just was really strange.

393
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 2: The only part of that, the only part of that

394
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: I actually really like.

395
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: The I don't know. I guess it felt symbolic was

396
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: when he just closed the window on.

397
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

398
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, what good for you? See?

399
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 3: I know I was glad that he kind of was like, well,

400
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 3: too bad, someone doesn't like you.

401
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 2: And that's why I kind of like, even though I

402
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 2: was like, how the hell is she climbed, it was

403
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 2: worth it for that shutting of the window.

404
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: I actually wanted her have to close the curtain a

405
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: little bit too. I wanted to like shut her out completely.

406
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 3: But if you're in a second story bedroom and someone

407
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 3: knocks on your window at night, like that would scare them.

408
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: By the way, you just did a twenty four hour marathon.

409
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: He still must be sore. Let's not forget.

410
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 2: Like this is probably like a couple. Well no, this

411
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 2: is this is a week later because they all ran

412
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 2: Friday night dinner and.

413
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 1: Then it was the following weekend.

414
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, but still that's true. Yeah, but that I

415
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 3: just I wrote that in my notes and I highlighted

416
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 3: in red.

417
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: What the hell?

418
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 3: Just yeah, it was that whole thing was just cringe. Yeah,

419
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 3: but I think the So I have an important question

420
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 3: from this episode that never got answered. Okay, did Kirk

421
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 3: ever get his trophy back? Because like this the b

422
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 3: or C story in this episode trophy ye find his trophy?

423
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: We never find. I don't think we ever will know.

424
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 3: I know.

425
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: It's just also, wait, he had won, like this is

426
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 1: like his fifth year in a row.

427
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 3: Winning ninety ninety nine. Two thoughts.

428
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: Yes, I did, can't fifty We ask four other ones.

429
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 1: It probably got mixed up with the others.

430
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: But I'm dying to know what happen into it?

431
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: So funny.

432
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 3: Did it get stolen? Did he lose it?

433
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 2: I think I think because it's Kirk, I like truly

434
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 2: just don't pay attention. I'm like, all right, well.

435
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 3: He probably like left it on a park bench or something,

436
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 3: so I probably returned to the town small.

437
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone has to hear that he won. So it's fine.

438
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 2: Did you have any more call outs for this or

439
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 2: you know this said episode?

440
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 3: It was solid. There wasn't a lot of you know.

441
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: Ohso we weren't in stars Hollow that much.

442
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 2: And even when we were like by the like by

443
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: the gas pump, like, it's not what we usually see.

444
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, I had to watch that scene a

445
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 3: couple of times because I couldn't figure out where it was.

446
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 3: It almost the first time I watched it, it didn't

447
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 3: look like it was at Gypsy's. But then I watched

448
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 3: it a few more times than they were they were outside.

449
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 1: It was a great angle.

450
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 3: Whatever it was it was, it was definitely different. And yeah, yeah,

451
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 3: thank goodness, just didn't like the cigarette while he was

452
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 3: standing next to.

453
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,560
