Speaker 2: So I gotta say I have a lot to say
Speaker 2: about that coming up. And I had my eyeball on
Speaker 2: my belly.

Speaker 1: at the very very end.
Speaker 2: Well, Amy said we had to get on bump watch,
Speaker 2: so I was doing my job. Aka, I wasn't that
Speaker 2: interested in this episode.
Speaker 1: More interested in watching the bump. Okay, when did you
Speaker 1: see it?
Speaker 2: I didn't see it.
Speaker 1: Oh well there you go. There you go, no pump yet,
Speaker 1: but I.
Speaker 2: Saw them trying to maybe hide something. But then you
Speaker 2: want to dress on and you had nothing there.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. It's definitely coming.
Speaker 2: It's coming, so look for it.
Speaker 1: You can't stop it.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's there. Was fall now, but we're we
Speaker 2: were still on track.

Speaker 2: but Jim can see right through Brandon's phony baloney. Kelly
Speaker 2: drowns her sorrows in diy and drinking. Valerie is exposed
Speaker 2: but wiggles her way into Rob's heart and his wallet,
Speaker 2: while Donna wants her d at home, but Felice's bedside
Speaker 2: manner gets in the way.
Speaker 1: Directed by Charles Correll, Written by Greg plage Man and
Speaker 1: John Eisendrath. I feel bad.
Speaker 2: I don't remember hella play, that's what they are calling it.
Speaker 1: So we're just giving him little shadow teleplane.
Speaker 2: Jen, what does that mean exactly? So he it was
Speaker 2: his story idea, but John wrote it. I bet it
Speaker 2: was his story idea.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, John came in to find you, tune
Speaker 1: it or manipulate it into what he wanted.
Speaker 2: Gotcha, gotcha? Well, your sexy boyfriend's back.
Speaker 1: My boyfriend Jim Walsh, Oh my god, hows no suspenders?
Speaker 2: Sorry, my friend?
Speaker 1: But all right, he wasn't wearing suspenders. But I was
Speaker 1: really happy to see him.
Speaker 2: I was happy to see him too. It made me okay,
Speaker 2: so can we talk about that storyline? First, Brandon and
Speaker 2: Tracy his plus one go to visit Jim. No Cindy
Speaker 2: because she's in London visiting Brenda for spring break.
Speaker 1: She's in London visiting Brenda.
Speaker 2: First of all because Brenda has Mono.
Speaker 1: Right, But they just didn't want to pay for two
Speaker 1: guest stars.
Speaker 2: I know it made me say, maybe.
Speaker 1: She wasn't available. Okay, I don't know, because this was
Speaker 1: when wasn't this when Carol was getting like her doctorate
Speaker 1: or something wasn't there but like she was going back
Speaker 1: to school and back to work. I'm pretty sure, but
Speaker 1: who knows. I bet she would have come if she
Speaker 1: had the opportunity.
Speaker 2: I know it did make me sad seeing Jim and Brandon.
Speaker 1: Together though, I know, and it felt like I loved it,
Speaker 1: But I also it also made me sad.
Speaker 2: Because now they're friends as your friend one more time
Speaker 2: as your friend as.
Speaker 1: Your friend, they're not friends, I know.
Speaker 2: I guess when your kids at that age, you got
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: It did feel good though, like that comfortability you could
Speaker 1: feel it with him and his dad.
Speaker 2: For sure, and Jim knows that you're the one. Kelly's
Speaker 2: the one.
Speaker 1: How does he know?
Speaker 2: I don't know, Moms and Dad's always known that's true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh Jim. Yeah. It goes so far as to
Speaker 1: ask Brandon, uh, if he's over Kelly and he said, oh,
Speaker 1: am I my exsess keeper.
Speaker 2: Gotta be honest. I didn't love the way that Brandon's
Speaker 2: character was written this episode. Yeah, I don't know. He's
Speaker 2: always so likable, and I felt like, I mean, he
Speaker 2: says like Tercy cares about him, he cares a little
Speaker 2: bit less than that. But it made me feel sad
Speaker 2: the way he's treating her.
Speaker 1: I know, I'm like, why are you stringing this girl
Speaker 1: like this? Poor I'm sorry to say, but kind of pathetic,
Speaker 1: like pick me, pick me like girl, and it's really
Speaker 1: upsetting me.
Speaker 2: I agree, I agree, And I just felt like, I
Speaker 2: don't know. He could have waited and he didn't tell her.
Speaker 2: Jim says, you gotta tell her. He's waiting till they
Speaker 2: came back from Hong Kong. But he's not very kind
Speaker 2: to her, and she's like, are you just stringing me
Speaker 2: along to an? Another one comes along and he's like no, no,
Speaker 2: but he's almost barking at her.
Speaker 1: Because he knows another one's not coming along right.
Speaker 2: He's not lying, it's you right by.
Speaker 1: Somebody coming back. But it was weird also that she
Speaker 1: went back and bought that book because it's strung it
Speaker 1: struck a chord in her. I wouldn't buy that book
Speaker 1: if it was about my love torn between two women.
Speaker 1: I'd be like, get that book away from me. I
Speaker 1: don't want to ever see it again.
Speaker 2: What do you think she's ultimately going to do with
Speaker 2: that book?
Speaker 1: Put it under her pillow? I don't know. Like this girl,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I don't get her. I don't get her.
Speaker 1: It makes me really sad to see her not know
Speaker 1: her worth and not recognize that she's being strung along.
Speaker 1: She knows it, she does, but she's not standing up
Speaker 1: for herself at all, and that's upsetting well.
Speaker 2: I feel like in that scene, perhaps if it had
Speaker 2: been written differently, she would have stood.
Speaker 1: Up for herself, that it would have been there.
Speaker 2: I really had no choice in the writing of what
Speaker 2: to do, I guess, and.
Speaker 1: But as it's written, it makes me bummed out.
Speaker 2: Definitely, because when she hugs him, I don't know or
Speaker 2: maybe it could have been played a little differently. I
Speaker 2: don't know. When she hugs him, she seems to think
Speaker 2: from what I saw that it is going to work out.
Speaker 1: Yep, that look of hopeful on her face and like,
Speaker 1: but his.
Speaker 2: Words were so yeah, yeah, this is Scott.
Speaker 1: She needs to read between these lines.
Speaker 2: It's a long flight home.
Speaker 1: By the way, ooh, do you know something? Maybe not,
Speaker 1: something happened on the plane?
Speaker 2: What we don't tell me? Okay, keep giving me him.
Speaker 1: No, you just said it's a long flight home. So
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, what happens on the plane?
Speaker 2: I thought your journey to dark my memory. I'm like, wait, no,
Speaker 2: I'm asking you to jar my memory. No, nothing, I
Speaker 2: don't think anything. Okay, if this show is going the
Speaker 2: way it's been going this season so far, we will
Speaker 2: start next week's episode and they'll be home. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: no mention that plane ride.
Speaker 1: That's true. But what if you did go on like
Speaker 1: a whatever. How many hours is that flight? Eighteen?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I thought he said fourteen hours, but it's more
Speaker 2: or fourteen different times.
Speaker 1: But what if you did break up with a guy
Speaker 1: on an airplane you had to sit with him for
Speaker 1: the next fourteen hours?
Speaker 2: I had an assistant once break up with me on
Speaker 2: an airplane and then I had to sit next to
Speaker 2: her for another five hours.
Speaker 1: Wait, how'd I go?
Speaker 2: You know me? I was scared to say anything. I
Speaker 2: was like and it was a really bumpy flight, and
Speaker 2: I was really scared. And you know, I would be
Speaker 2: holding if you're right there, like holding on to you,
Speaker 2: and I couldn't turn and hold on door. I just
Speaker 2: had to like hold myself and be.
Speaker 1: Like, it's gonna be okay, It's gonna be okay, hold myself.
Speaker 1: I can picture it. But that would be rough. That
Speaker 1: would be rough. So we know that he's not over Kelly,
Speaker 1: and we know for sure that Kelly's not over him
Speaker 1: because she is pine and hard in this episode, Like
Speaker 1: finally it's she's realizing it.
Speaker 2: I like that you said pining hard, which ironically you're
Speaker 2: doing all this hard de why on this chair?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Which is so what I would do
Speaker 1: if you had to distract yourself from thinking about your problems.
Speaker 1: I do pretty much every day, actually start a new project, like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sand this ceramic pot down and repaint it.
Speaker 1: That's what's happening today. Actually go f.
Speaker 2: That part of the storyline, very on point with you
Speaker 2: in real life. The dry I was totally into that.
Speaker 2: Then we go to the after Steve sits on and.
Speaker 1: I like that part. And then they go to the
Speaker 1: party and she gets tips a. First of all, she's
Speaker 1: a bosh like the whole time, Like I was kind
Speaker 1: of like, whoa, Kelly, relaxed a little because you're kind
Speaker 1: of embarrassing me.
Speaker 2: I thought she was great.
Speaker 1: I don't know, she was just she was like in
Speaker 1: Your Dreams pal like I like that barthough, yeah.
Speaker 2: Me too. That was still likable even when she was
Speaker 2: bitter throughout the party. And we're talking about the after
Speaker 2: dark party that Valerie is throwing beer, naked ladies are
Speaker 2: playing and it's for Rob's new movie. She talked to
Speaker 2: me because she took money.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Uh So who is the boy you were with the
Speaker 2: whole time?
Speaker 1: How do I know?
Speaker 2: I don't know there, Let's look him up.
Speaker 1: Scott Gurney, that's his name, the actor that played Pete.
Speaker 2: I thought he was going to come in for that
Speaker 2: one beat and that in Your Dreams, but like he
Speaker 2: last the entire episode.
Speaker 1: She didn't find anything better to focus on, so she
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to Pete Pete Scott. Sorry, yeah, I thought
Speaker 1: it was pretty funny though. When she was like, Claire's like,
Speaker 1: you don't even know him, she goes, yes, I do.
Speaker 1: As she walks over, she's like, what's your name? By
Speaker 1: the way, I thought that was funny, and then she
Speaker 1: loses her ring and loses her at the same time.
Speaker 2: Okay, so yeah, that was the whole reason. That was
Speaker 2: the whole setup for having Scott. I found Scott Gurney?
Speaker 1: Where'd you find him?
Speaker 2: Right here?
Speaker 1: What's up to?
Speaker 2: Well? He's an American executive producer, writer, director, actor, model,
Speaker 2: and entrepreneur. Created several television series and documentaries.
Speaker 1: Ooh, that's crazy. That's a lot of hyphenates.
Speaker 2: He was in a movie in two thousand and one
Speaker 2: called The Fluffer? Do you want fluffer is?
Speaker 1: Unfortunately I learned what a fluffer is on the set
Speaker 1: of nine two one. Oh yeah, this is where I
Speaker 1: learned all the things that I couldn't have learned.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Do you remember the boys used to
Speaker 2: be like very into Maybe this is the nineties thing.
Speaker 2: They were just learning the terms of different sexual things.
Speaker 2: Everything had like a name for it.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? I?
Speaker 2: Oh, like I don't know, like I just remember them
Speaker 2: talking and they'd be like, what's the different. They'd all
Speaker 2: be laughing and we're just kind of standing there like ooh,
Speaker 2: it's uncomfortable. And they'd be like it's called the dirty Sanchas.
Speaker 2: Do you remember things like that? You do?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I do, unfortunately, yeah.
Speaker 2: Or they say to us like have you ever done this?
Speaker 2: And you're like trying to be cool and you're like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what is it? And then they take
Speaker 2: your like no, no, no, I've never done that.
Speaker 1: I've ever done that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh, there's so many things I want to unlearn from
Speaker 1: that life. But it's so funny you say that, because
Speaker 1: just the other like two days ago, I was in
Speaker 1: the car with Dave and he said something and I
Speaker 1: made like a I said, like a zinger come back
Speaker 1: like something totally not like me, like kind of like
Speaker 1: dude like and he was like, did you learn that
Speaker 1: on the set in the nineties? And I was like, oh, probably,
Speaker 1: I wish I could ever thought it was though it
Speaker 1: was something like yeah that's what she said or something,
Speaker 1: you know, like stupid.
Speaker 2: Like right, oh my gosh. Yeah. They would just teach
Speaker 2: us like hundreds of different things, and they thought it
Speaker 2: was so funny all these terms of different acts. Anyway, Yeah, really, okay.
Speaker 1: So yeah, Kelly's not over Brandon either. I like the
Speaker 1: sweet scene with Steve me too. They have good sweet
Speaker 1: scenes together, they really do. And I thought he was
Speaker 1: really good in that scene. Yeah, it was, I just
Speaker 1: too felt very natch.
Speaker 2: So wait, how much did we estimate that that ring
Speaker 2: probably cost originally when Brandon bought it?
Speaker 1: We did that, we broke it down.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Amy always does that, so I feel
Speaker 2: like she might have said it was like thirty thousand
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 1: Oh come on, wait, First of all, where's Amy? We
Speaker 1: started without her? Hold on Amy?
Speaker 2: Wait?
Speaker 1: Imagine we're like, oh my god, No, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: Amy's taking care of something right now. She might pop in.
Speaker 1: She might not, So if you are missing her, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: We're sorry. It's just us.
Speaker 2: But I worry though. If she were here right now,
Speaker 2: she would really say that the show's jumping some sharks here.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. We have to just stop letting her
Speaker 1: say that.
Speaker 2: I mean, why do you think it's convincing us? Then?
Speaker 1: Yes, because if you listen to her narrative, then you
Speaker 1: have to just have our own, like we can't be
Speaker 1: persuaded by this all this shark jumping talk. Okay, I
Speaker 1: don't feel like it's jumping any sharks.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not. I'm not loving the episodes, the last three.
Speaker 2: There's moments I love. I don't know. You're right, You're right, Okay.
Speaker 2: So Kelly bought it back.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's a lot. Oh, she bought it from a
Speaker 1: pond store. So it was like, you know, like a
Speaker 1: slice of the portion of the amount that it was originally.
Speaker 1: But I don't think it. There's no chance that Brandon
Speaker 1: bought his girlfriend a thirty thousand dollars engagement ring, is there?
Speaker 2: No, No, it's ridiculous in the nineties. Maybe I have
Speaker 2: that wrong.
Speaker 1: I would go more three thousand.
Speaker 2: Really, it's okay, fine, Yeah, depending on the cut. I
Speaker 2: don't know anything about diamonds.
Speaker 1: It might be like a grade. You know how they
Speaker 1: grade diamonds. Yeah, this is like a a D minus.
Speaker 1: Maybe he got a good deal on it, but it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It's the sentiment, I know.
Speaker 2: Okay, So it's how only do you think? Just as
Speaker 2: fans here, what's coming up is he's going to go
Speaker 2: back to try to get it back and they're gonna
Speaker 2: be like someone bought.
Speaker 1: It, oh my, and then he's gonna like, oh, it's
Speaker 1: a sign I shouldn't go back together with her. This
Speaker 1: is one one way it could go. I don't know, honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I really liked it around your neck. I didn't really No,
Speaker 2: did you feel strangled by it?
Speaker 1: I don't love a ring on a chain personally, but
Speaker 1: you know what, now that I'm thinking about it, it
Speaker 1: kind of works.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's just it's hard for me because my mom wears
Speaker 1: her my Dad's ring around her neck. Okay, I don't
Speaker 1: love it. I don't know why, but she loves it,
Speaker 1: and that's all that matters for sure.
Speaker 2: So okay, So but she just I feel like she
Speaker 2: just dropped it in that box though, like.
Speaker 1: You, I wanted to see. They didn't have like coverage
Speaker 1: of her face. M They just had like weird over
Speaker 1: the shoulder because she was facing inside the closet. Maybe
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it was a little weird. She
Speaker 1: just tossed it in there.
Speaker 2: You know, you probably weren't the only one that noticed that,
Speaker 2: and they were like, oh, gikes, we don't have that
Speaker 2: coverage and then they're.
Speaker 1: All just like me, oh god, that's.
Speaker 2: You're right, that's really important coverage to have. Is your
Speaker 2: reaction putting it away in a box?
Speaker 1: Yeah, heads were rolling. They were like, you didn't get the.
Speaker 2: Shot, oh man, But she didn't put in anything like
Speaker 2: God forbid if anyone to come in, like maybe if
Speaker 2: a door wasn't locked, like on Rob Andrew's house that
Speaker 2: they just walk out of and don't lock a door.
Speaker 2: You know you saw that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, And I don't think he's in
Speaker 1: the best neighborhood of La.
Speaker 2: Well, we determined that house is an Eagle Rock correct.
Speaker 1: Did you go rocks pretty good?
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, which is where we filmed a lot of
Speaker 2: our stuff. So that house is still standing. Sorry, we're
Speaker 2: we done with your storyline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're so done.
Speaker 2: Going to val and Rob Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: I was happy to see him in a tank top.
Speaker 1: I was happy to see him without a shirt on.
Speaker 1: I was just happy to see him. Honestly, he was a.
Speaker 2: Perk in this episode. Just gonna be honest.
Speaker 1: He really felt like they got along well, I know,
Speaker 1: like I felt like there might be a little chemistry adjacent.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: She was real wrapped up in that sheet.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: So people immediately get it. I know, I felt like
Speaker 2: she was tripping on it a little bit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was who gets your naked right and you
Speaker 1: get out of bed, but you're perfectly wrapped up like
Speaker 1: a burrito in the sheet like what There must have
Speaker 1: been a lot of tossing and turned into make that happen,
Speaker 1: but a lot of rolling around.
Speaker 2: Maybe there's other ways to do it, but yes, they
Speaker 2: would always do that. Have you wrapped yourself and it
Speaker 2: just makes absolutely no sense.
Speaker 1: No sense. Yeah, but it's one way to shoot a
Speaker 1: scene where you're supposed to be naked.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: It always looks fake. I don't know, it always looks fake.
Speaker 2: I mean she could have just gotten up and trailed
Speaker 2: it behind it. I don't know. Yeah, have you ever
Speaker 2: done that like the scene?
Speaker 1: No, in real life? Have you ever been like.
Speaker 2: Take someone's sheet or my own nervous to get stand
Speaker 2: up the bath and yeah, of course of course. But
Speaker 2: I guess I never thought there was a way unless
Speaker 2: you just rip the whole shit off the bed and
Speaker 2: wrap it around and walk to go to the bathroom
Speaker 2: or go to the door. I don't know. What do
Speaker 2: boys do. They have it so much easier.
Speaker 1: They just get out of bed naked. They don't care.
Speaker 2: And I feel like we're a little bit kinder about
Speaker 2: it because we know, like, oh, maybe that's weird, or
Speaker 2: you could be uncomfortable about, you know, being naked in
Speaker 2: front of me, So you don't look down, like you
Speaker 2: don't look up. I mean you kind of like look down.
Speaker 2: But a man, if you get out of bed, no
Speaker 2: matter what, they always stare right at you. Well hello,
Speaker 2: and then you're like, don't look, don't look at me.
Speaker 2: But they always love.
Speaker 1: I thought he was especially attractive thing in the morning.
Speaker 2: He looked great, his great dimples.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so is he coming back? Do you know?
Speaker 2: Well? It was four episodes total, and I feel like
Speaker 2: I feel like he has one more.
Speaker 1: Why does he forgive her? Like I don't know that
Speaker 1: she's so dirty rotten that she she sent the date off,
Speaker 1: which I gotta like that part.
Speaker 2: So Alan, the manager shows up and has a date
Speaker 2: for Rob to the after Dark. First of all, Valerie
Speaker 2: got him to go to this.
Speaker 1: He paid her ten k, right, this is one of
Speaker 1: the one of the reasons he paid her ten k.
Speaker 1: They just basically get him to do whatever his manager
Speaker 1: wants them to do. How do you get out of that?
Speaker 1: She like, I don't know. She's like, I want to
Speaker 1: tell you why I did it, and.
Speaker 2: He goes, oh, I bet you do. But that's it
Speaker 2: and they walked away. But even okay, I mean that
Speaker 2: very nineties sweater. I liked that that she shows up
Speaker 2: at his house with a red rose. But he she
Speaker 2: doesn't say, but I'm going to give the money back?
Speaker 2: Does she? Ever? She says, I took the money so
Speaker 2: I could show.
Speaker 1: You that he's a like a yeah creep.
Speaker 2: But at no point did she say that show about
Speaker 2: her such a double standard. Ees. Yes, I found who
Speaker 2: pages Paige Rollin. She's married to Michael.
Speaker 1: Diats what how did you wow? I feel like And
Speaker 1: when we talked to Michael deads Yes we also spoke
Speaker 1: to her, Yes we did, and we saw her. He
Speaker 1: did a good job. Yeah, that's a good memory right there.
Speaker 2: Okay, so he fires Alan, Thank god you know who?
Speaker 1: Alan reminded me of who Valerie's other boyfriend, the money man,
Speaker 1: Kenny Kenny. That seemed kind of like, yeah, okay, didn't
Speaker 1: trust him. He had that untrustworthy look.
Speaker 2: So well played. Richard Hurst as Alan Black. Okay, he
Speaker 2: looks familiar too. But so now Valerie is going to
Speaker 2: be Rob's manager, I mean, the hottest news star in Hollywood.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she wait, they said that she's going to be
Speaker 1: his manager.
Speaker 2: She was like, oh, I don't know anything about being
Speaker 2: manager and he's like, you're all I've got. Oh god,
Speaker 2: I'm like hello, I'm sure there's fifty million that are
Speaker 2: waiting and he must have an agent. At this point,
Speaker 2: I would think this isn't going to end. Well, oh, well,
Speaker 2: we know it actually one episode left.
Speaker 1: So you think that they hired the Bear Naked Ladies
Speaker 1: to play at the party for Rob because.
Speaker 2: Because Jason's friends with them.
Speaker 1: As I was singing that the whole time, and I
Speaker 1: remember thinking like, okay, they're a Canadian band for those
Speaker 1: of you that don't know. And Jason was very fond
Speaker 1: of them as a youngster and was friendly and they
Speaker 1: became huge, and then they became huge, like in their country,
Speaker 1: really huge, yes, but in the States not as much.
Speaker 2: You think, what's the one song that's so.
Speaker 1: Oh, let me let me sing it for you. Uh,
Speaker 1: I can't, I can't do it. I don't even know.
Speaker 1: There's three they sang They sang three songs in this episode,
Speaker 1: by the way, which I felt like I was. Every
Speaker 1: time something would happen, they would just cut back to
Speaker 1: the bear naked ladies still sing. They sang three songs.
Speaker 1: One was called Brian Wilson, does that rang a bell?
Speaker 2: One week? One week? And that one y that's the
Speaker 2: big one saying it Laurens saying one week was the
Speaker 2: big big one.
Speaker 1: I don't know how that goes.
Speaker 2: We looked at me one week in the marry.
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, that's great. Learn thanks so much for your help.
Speaker 2: Oh, if I had a million, Eastern saying million dollars,
Speaker 2: that's the one. Remember we used to seeing now on set. Nope,
Speaker 2: I'd buy you a contest if I had a million dollars.
Speaker 2: I'd buy you a lot more than that if I
Speaker 2: had a million dollars. But remember anyway, they were very
Speaker 2: excited though.
Speaker 1: But they were fun to watch. I gotta tell you
Speaker 1: they was infectious because they were jumping around having the
Speaker 1: best time.
Speaker 2: They really were. I wanted to ask you something, what
Speaker 2: do we have another storyline?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: You were saying, how much do you think bal paid
Speaker 2: to get them on to play there for his party? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I know I just found it was an interesting choice.
Speaker 2: Of them, but it got the crowd going. So did
Speaker 2: you you like these things? Did you notice there was
Speaker 2: like some people were really like jumping around, and then
Speaker 2: there was one guy that was, like, you know in
Speaker 2: real life, was like, oh my gosh, I don't like dancing.
Speaker 1: They made me stand here apparely.
Speaker 2: Moving, and of course I was like, oh, be lying
Speaker 2: focused on him.
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know it. I'm just kind of I've
Speaker 1: got to be honest, I'm kind of tired of having
Speaker 1: parties at the beat Pad, Like I'd like to s agree.
Speaker 2: Where do you want to party then?
Speaker 1: And do you know how many I mean you do
Speaker 1: how many nightclubs or venues there are in La? Like?
Speaker 1: Why do they go into the same one? I'm bored because.
Speaker 2: We built the set we have to use now it's
Speaker 2: a big ass set. Like what the heck? I know
Speaker 2: what you mean? Well, we got some dim sum thrown
Speaker 2: in there that made me happy those homes.
Speaker 1: Wait wait, speaking of dim sum, Yeah, what about that
Speaker 1: the b roll footage of Hong Kong? Was that real?
Speaker 1: Or was that just like Tryina Town downtown La?
Speaker 2: I do not know, but I'm gonna guess it was
Speaker 2: the stock footage, so it had to have been real.
Speaker 2: They didn't send a crew downtown in LA to film it. No,
Speaker 2: no one went to Hong Kong.
Speaker 1: I just felt like they kept showing the same intersection
Speaker 1: over and over.
Speaker 2: Because it would have cost more to keep buying that
Speaker 2: stock footage. And they had to pay the Bear Naked
Speaker 2: Ladies a lot to sing three songs.
Speaker 1: How much? How much is a lot?
Speaker 2: I don't know. You just told me your engagement ring
Speaker 2: was not thirty thousand dollars, so I do not know
Speaker 2: how much the Bear Naked Ladies were.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I'm guessing they did it as a favor for Jason
Speaker 2: because they were really close friends.
Speaker 1: And HI huge opportunit unity.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, I'm minimalizing us in the show, the
Speaker 2: biggest show and the biggest show. You're right in the
Speaker 2: world at that moment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have been like, i'll play, I'll pay
Speaker 1: for my hotel, let me be on the show.
Speaker 2: Okay, you're right, you're right. We gave a shout out
Speaker 2: to Beverly Hilton. That's where Valerie sent Heather off too. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how much do you think she tipped that driver when
Speaker 2: she said and make sure there's a lot of traffic.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say she gave them twenty bucks.
Speaker 2: She gave multiple bills. Okay, you think it was like fives,
Speaker 2: Like I just had to count in my head how
Speaker 2: many fives it would on my fingers. Actually it would be.
Speaker 1: You know what, that's a good hack whenever you have
Speaker 1: to tip somebody, just tip them in like smaller bills
Speaker 1: and then waded up so that it seems like a
Speaker 1: lot for.
Speaker 2: Your hand, just like filing and off, like sumbing it off,
Speaker 2: and then you roll it up and hand it to
Speaker 2: them and they're like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, y and later they get home open it.
Speaker 2: It's ten dollars in one.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But back then, I guess I feel like twenty
Speaker 1: dollars was a big tip, but it was probably more
Speaker 1: than that. You're right, it was.
Speaker 2: A big, long black limo.
Speaker 1: What is going on with tipping? By the way, what
Speaker 1: do you mean? Have you been out in the world.
Speaker 2: You know, not often lately? Wait are you telling me
Speaker 2: tipping is not I still tip? Don't you tip? Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not the problem now. Okay, So even when
Speaker 1: you go to buy a smoothie and you order it
Speaker 1: the counter and bless their hearts, they make it. They
Speaker 1: they are they get the tip thing on the computer.
Speaker 1: Before the credit card reader thing or Apple pay, there
Speaker 1: was never like you just left a tip or some
Speaker 1: extra cash or in the jar or something, right, But
Speaker 1: now you can't buy a stick of gum without being
Speaker 1: asked what you would like to tip? Would you like
Speaker 1: to tip? Now it's eighteen, twenty or twenty five percent?
Speaker 2: It's outrageous. So no longer you're during the tap, which
Speaker 2: we have on our phones now, and then I feel
Speaker 2: guilty because they're standing there. But then if you think
Speaker 2: about it, like if you're buying a pack of gum,
Speaker 2: like it's not wild to tip twenty percent. It's like
Speaker 2: a dollar or something, you know what I mean, Like.
Speaker 1: Who's getting the tip for the gum? Oh?
Speaker 2: Oh, you're saying it's something a little fishy that it's
Speaker 2: going on.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's fishy because I know with like
Speaker 1: Dave's Dave's Bar, all the tips are gathered and calculated
Speaker 1: and everybody splits them. So the more tips the better
Speaker 1: for everybody.
Speaker 2: Right, But he's on. So if it were like a
Speaker 2: convenience store, who knows.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think I should tip at a
Speaker 1: convenience store. I'm sorry, I just don't. That's the that
Speaker 1: undermines the whole concept of it being a convenient.
Speaker 2: Today. I'm funny, yeah, punny, pe punny.
Speaker 1: I do say, though, I found out my friend told
Speaker 1: me that she's like a server, waitress, like hostess. She
Speaker 1: does all the things. And she moved to New Mexico
Speaker 1: and she gets the un no, the servers and the
Speaker 1: people that get tips. Maybe are you ready for this?
Speaker 1: That's two dollars an hour?
Speaker 2: Wait?
Speaker 1: What that is the rate for servers at least in
Speaker 1: the restaurant industry. That's what she works in. They get
Speaker 1: two dollars an hour and then they make tips. So
Speaker 1: remember that when you're tipping, and when I'm complaining about tipping,
Speaker 1: that there are people that they are basically surviving off
Speaker 1: your tips because the wages are not enough to live by.
Speaker 2: So what is minimum wage? How is that?
Speaker 1: Even in LA it's like seventeen something? Uh currently? And
Speaker 1: then but why how could it be two dollars?
Speaker 2: Two dollars in New Mexico?
Speaker 1: But I Dave was trying to explain to me, it's
Speaker 1: got something to do with whether you make tips or not.
Speaker 1: Oh really, I still think you should just get paid
Speaker 1: minimum wage and then tips are the cherry on top, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: What is the minimum wage in New Mexico.
Speaker 1: Ooh ooh, good idea.
Speaker 2: For a.
Speaker 1: Person who gets tipped. What are you seeing.
Speaker 2: Three dollars per hour?
Speaker 1: You were, oh my god, what is now?
Speaker 2: Well it says the minimum wage in January twenty twenty
Speaker 2: three is twelve dollars per hour and for tipped employees. Oh,
Speaker 2: you're right, and Dave, oh my gosh, is that wild?
Speaker 2: So if you're but is it a question when you
Speaker 2: choose to work there, do you want to get paid,
Speaker 2: you know, twelve dollars an hour or do you want
Speaker 2: to get paid three three dollars an hour? If you're
Speaker 2: going to take tips?
Speaker 1: I mean you probably would have to do the math
Speaker 1: at that point figure it out, because it sounds like
Speaker 1: taking the tips you might end up making more just
Speaker 1: the tip.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I was like, girl, I know, I can't you sorry,
Speaker 1: but I told I was like, girl, you better be
Speaker 1: doing some dancing, get some get those tips, like give
Speaker 1: the people what they want. She's like, I'm trying, believe me.
Speaker 2: That sounds horrible, and I feel bad for your friend.
Speaker 2: I feel like you would have to disclose to people,
Speaker 2: which doesn't feel right. But I'd be like, hey, you
Speaker 2: know making two to three dollars an hour if you
Speaker 2: like me, Like, oh, I'd be trying real hard. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how do you afford anything? That's just so, this country
Speaker 2: is a little whack right now? Do we have any
Speaker 2: more storyline? Sorry?
Speaker 1: What about Claire and Steve? Did they have anything to do?
Speaker 2: They were there to serve you.
Speaker 1: Yep, they were there for Kelly's storyline. They had nothing
Speaker 1: to do. Donna, Oh, Donna really wants her dad to
Speaker 1: recover at home. We didn't talk about that yet, we didn't.
Speaker 1: But police wants to send him to rehab. And for
Speaker 1: a moment, like I I could put myself in Donna's
Speaker 1: shoes as the daughter of the man that needs is
Speaker 1: it in the hospital? Like I got that's her dad.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I was like, but out,
Speaker 1: you're a child. You don't understood. Yeah, it's not you
Speaker 1: don't understand what they're dealing with. And I was at first,
Speaker 1: I was like, is this when mommy has an affair? Nope, No,
Speaker 1: that was season Oh my god, that already happened.
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, is another one does she.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I just felt like she was.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it just came from her fear
Speaker 1: of not being able to take care of him, which
Speaker 1: is a genuine.
Speaker 2: Thing, completely relatable and personal. David is very helpful in
Speaker 2: this episode. Why we is this entire episode in one
Speaker 2: day because Donna never changes outfits.
Speaker 1: No, the bare naked ladies are playing all day, all night.
Speaker 2: They kept playing. It wasn't just three times, that's all
Speaker 2: we saw in one hour.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one really long day in Hong Kong. Like they
Speaker 1: get there at the crack of dawn, no jet lag, Nope,
Speaker 1: they go all day, they go hard, and then Brandon
Speaker 1: and Dad go to the bar after she's already gone home.
Speaker 1: Oh so it's all one day.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: I kind of like when episodes all happened one day.
Speaker 2: Really well, it didn't feel fast. I'm gonna tell you that.
Speaker 2: I was happy to see Donna and her mom have
Speaker 2: a moment together where I felt like Felice was human.
Speaker 2: That was good to see. I feel like she's going
Speaker 2: to be headed in the right direction now. With David,
Speaker 2: I mean, he's really helping and going above and beyond,
Speaker 2: looking into all the care products, the equipment that could
Speaker 2: be put in the house and everything. I don't know
Speaker 2: what's gonna happen, but I'm a little nervous because I
Speaker 2: just saw the name of the next episode.
Speaker 1: Oh what is it?
Speaker 2: Heaven Sent? And I'm very nervous.
Speaker 1: Wait what the next episode that we're going to recap
Speaker 1: is called Heaven Sent? Is episode twenty five, you guys
Speaker 1: for next week? But why are you nervous? Do you

Speaker 1: I don't know. Something with Tracy and Brandon.
Speaker 2: Mm hm, boy got chills.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, I'm glad because this felt so fillery. This
Speaker 1: episode felt it was like filler for your dad, like
Speaker 1: to get better, I know, filler for even for like
Speaker 1: the relationship of Val and Cutie Pie. It felt filler
Speaker 1: for Stephen, like felt filler for Kelly and Brandon's story.
Speaker 1: Like I just felt like, oh, come on, do something.
Speaker 2: So wait, Okay, so if it aired, sorry, I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna back this real quick if it aired April April,
Speaker 2: so would it have been a double up we would
Speaker 2: have filmed. Oh gosh, what's the reason it's a filler?
Speaker 2: You're right, it is a filler episode? Why though?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess they have an something that
Speaker 1: they have planned that they're getting to in storylines, but
Speaker 1: they just have to have all this blah blah blah
Speaker 1: to get there. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, I know what's kind of coming. So I do
Speaker 2: love the Kelly Brandon stuff because it gives me something
Speaker 2: as a fan to be like psyched for it, like

Speaker 1: but three.
Speaker 2: Shoot, why would you bring that up? Now? We have
Speaker 2: to give it up, bucket mine, they get a ten.
Speaker 2: We can't keep doing You can't separate storylines and giving tens?

Speaker 2: out of it, take me your naked ladies?
Speaker 1: What would you rate this without them? Well, we did
