Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 2: How are you aby, I'm good. I've been cleaning out
Speaker 2: my house in the new year. Look what I found?
Speaker 1: What? What is it?
Speaker 2: I found the electronic full House game. This is like
Speaker 2: a game Boy. What have you ever seen this before?
Speaker 2: I have seen it, but I not in a while.
Speaker 3: It's been not in a while. I forgot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what could you possibly play?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 2: What could what is the goal of the game, Well,
Speaker 2: it's to me, it's to from what I can tell,
Speaker 2: I don't have the instructions right.
Speaker 3: But by the way, for those of you listening to
Speaker 3: describe this, it is it's sort of like the pre
Speaker 3: cursor to a game boy, because it's it's before they
Speaker 3: had individual games that you could like put into the thing,
Speaker 3: or maybe they had him, but you could buy like
Speaker 3: separate little games for shows that they, you know, made
Speaker 3: merch out of or whatever.
Speaker 1: And this one is a full house game.
Speaker 2: It is all of.
Speaker 3: The fantastic pink, blue, yellow, eighties early nineties that you
Speaker 3: could imagine. And it's got a picture of Steph and
Speaker 3: DJ and Michelle and then another picture of Michelle on
Speaker 3: the side. So I feel like you're getting Michelle to
Speaker 3: do something. Yes, is that Okay.
Speaker 2: The object of the game is to move Michelle back
Speaker 2: and forth across the screen and you have to tie.
Speaker 1: In the day. Wow, this is high tech.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to say, I've got little buttons over here.
Speaker 3: You have, but it's like pixelated, you know, like a
Speaker 3: like it's it's yeah, it makes pac Man look advanced.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there's only one scene. There's like a there's
Speaker 2: like a checkered blue floor, which I guess was like
Speaker 2: the checkered blue couch. And to move Michelle back and
Speaker 2: forth and time time it so that she high fives
Speaker 2: her sisters at the exact right moment, and then she
Speaker 2: sees Danny and she throws trash into the trash can.
Speaker 2: And you earn points depending on if you do this
Speaker 2: at the right time, Like if you miss if Michelle
Speaker 2: the girls in my hide, you didn't get those points.
Speaker 1: What was it?
Speaker 3: Paung And you have to like move the thing across
Speaker 3: so that it hits in the right you know whatever.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I didn't realize. I didn't remember I had this,
Speaker 2: and then I didn't know if it worked, and all
Speaker 2: I had to do was change the batteries. It works.
Speaker 1: It's now you've been playing it for three days.
Speaker 2: I've been doing nothing but that.
Speaker 3: You've been doing nothing but playing the full house game
Speaker 3: and you've lost an entire day.
Speaker 1: Wow, that's you.
Speaker 2: Jensen has this, but he bought it on eBay for
Speaker 2: one thousand dollars, right, and it's in his dove.
Speaker 3: He has a picture of it on a T shirt
Speaker 3: that he bought for one thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: That was a vintage T shirt, is what it was.
Speaker 2: Very action dare you? How dare you? But I also
Speaker 2: am putting in a two hundred dollars off up again.
Speaker 2: All right bye? Oh I love this, I love all
Speaker 2: of the swag.
Speaker 3: I love this amazing. It's just I've got some cleaning
Speaker 3: out to do. I'm this spring. I am having some
Speaker 3: horn home organizers come to my house. You've come here before,
Speaker 3: great from tidy style home, and I'm going to have
Speaker 3: them do my garage because it's scary, scary, it's scary,
Speaker 3: and I know there's some full house stuff in there
Speaker 3: and so like so I kind of want to, you know,
Speaker 3: I haven't sorted through a lot of it in a while.
Speaker 3: And yeah, it needs some it needs some love because
Speaker 3: the garage used to be under control and now it's
Speaker 3: slowly creeping forward that happens, but certain closer to where
Speaker 3: you're like, oh no.
Speaker 2: There's no room. That happens with kids, then you have
Speaker 2: all of your stuff from your childhood, and then all
Speaker 2: of your kids.
Speaker 3: The kids stuff, and yeah, and when Mescal moved from
Speaker 3: New York, he has all his stuff and he's you know,
Speaker 3: got a ton of tools and so yeah, the garage
Speaker 3: is crazy.
Speaker 2: And you can't just throw stuff out because you might
Speaker 2: be thrown out good full house.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 3: What it makes me wonder though, is with all of
Speaker 3: the stuff in the garage that they just turned into
Speaker 3: I mean, they must be playing paying storage fees in
Speaker 3: San Francisco like you wouldn't believe.
Speaker 1: Oh for all of the Tanner stuff.
Speaker 2: Oh just because that decord.
Speaker 3: All the garage that was you know, full of stuff
Speaker 3: has been turned into Joey's rooms.
Speaker 1: So where's all the stuff?
Speaker 2: Oh that's right?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean maybe they put it in the gigantic
Speaker 3: attic that apparently can also be turned into a living space.
Speaker 2: That's true. I bet it's all in the attic right now,
Speaker 2: right until that becomes.
Speaker 3: Until that comes out, then they start paying for separate storage.
Speaker 2: Okay, but yeah, it's true. And I don't recall, we
Speaker 2: haven't had a Christmas episode yet, so I don't know
Speaker 2: if Danny goes all out for Christmas and decorates the
Speaker 2: way DJ does in Fuller House where she goes all
Speaker 2: out for Christmas.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I think so I feel like I
Speaker 3: feel like we I mean, I seem to remember some
Speaker 3: fairly large trees.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, so yeah we Danny needs a large attic
Speaker 2: to store all of this stuff.
Speaker 3: Right, Well, luckily he's got one that can fit an
Speaker 3: entire family of four. So yeah, yeah, we shall we
Speaker 3: get into this episode.
Speaker 2: Yes, let's get into the episode you've been waiting for
Speaker 2: because you watch it's just sort of been a million
Speaker 2: weeks ago.
Speaker 3: I watched it a million weeks ago, and I keep
Speaker 3: thinking that we're on it and it's not.
Speaker 1: So we're finally here.
Speaker 2: We're here, Welcome back to how Rude Tannerito's I'm Andrea.
Speaker 4: Barber and I am Jodie Sweeten, and today we are
Speaker 4: finally discussing season two episode five, entitled Jingle Hell. Can
Speaker 4: we just say though that we used hell in a
Speaker 4: show title? And I, I mean, you know me, I
Speaker 4: don't have a problem with that, right, But I find
Speaker 4: for full house, like I I you know, and again,
Speaker 4: we've had much more like innuendo jokes and things like that.
Speaker 4: I always thought it was a much more like sanitized
Speaker 4: version of stuff.
Speaker 1: But apparently I thought hell hell was fine in the eighties.
Speaker 2: Who knew well And you even said you say the
Speaker 2: word hell like if in last season season one didn't
Speaker 2: it was part of your line all the time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's which you know.
Speaker 3: I again, I personally don't have a problem with but
Speaker 3: I feel.
Speaker 2: Like Janie Sweeten does. For sure. Janna Sweeten does not
Speaker 2: like the title.
Speaker 1: Of not now she's given up. But I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean I feel like hell is a
Speaker 1: it's a descriptor. It's not a bad you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's sort of on the cost I'm showing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna when well, I'm sure I'll get hate
Speaker 3: mail for that one. But yeah, I don't see. I
Speaker 3: don't think hell is a bad word. But anyway, that's me.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: There's far worse words they could have chosen, So hell
Speaker 2: it's true.
Speaker 1: Okay, definitely one of the seven you can't stay on television?
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, Well, this originally aired on November eleventh, nineteen
Speaker 2: eighty eight, and it goes a little something like this.
Speaker 2: Joey becomes Jesse's jingle writing partner when they team up
Speaker 2: to create a cat food ad, but things don't go
Speaker 2: according to plan. In addition, DJ and Stephanie get into
Speaker 2: a fight and Michelle is ready to potty train. There's
Speaker 2: a lot going on in this episode at It's.
Speaker 1: A lot happening.
Speaker 2: This episode was directed by Peter Baldwin and it was
Speaker 2: written by Dennis Rinsler and Mark Warren, two very familiar
Speaker 2: names who stayed with us for the rest of the
Speaker 2: run of the series.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah they do.
Speaker 2: They are great, great gentlemen. I have fond memories of them. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Love that. Okay, So we have two guest stars this week.
Speaker 2: We have Nathan Nishiguchi back as Harry Takeyama. Love these
Speaker 2: kids so much, so great, He's such a great character.
Speaker 2: And we have Stacey Alden as the secretary. She played
Speaker 2: Marsha Marsha. She played someone in Nightmare on Elm Street
Speaker 2: three and she appeared unmarried with children. She has an
Speaker 2: actor since nineteen eighty nine. Okay, huh, that's a trend here.
Speaker 2: Like Nathan hasn't acted since.
Speaker 3: Ye we really just just put people right out of
Speaker 3: the business.
Speaker 1: And they were like, yeah, I'm you know.
Speaker 2: What I'm done.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've worked with animals and children and now I
Speaker 3: don't want to do the same.
Speaker 2: Yeah, killing the dream full house since nineteen eighty nine, since.
Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: We open with our cold open in DJ and Stephanie's room.
Speaker 2: DJ is flipping through a magazine and she's asking Michelle,
Speaker 2: isn't Patrick Swayzey cute here? It is?
Speaker 4: I know?
Speaker 1: Is he was mentioned again? I knew it.
Speaker 2: This is the second episode in a row where we
Speaker 2: talk about just how hot he is and he deserves it,
Speaker 2: Matt Patrick Swayzey.
Speaker 1: This was. This was like peak Dirty Dancing.
Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, Patrick swayzee was. He was every
Speaker 3: time he and I also hear he was like a
Speaker 3: pretty awesome human, Like I just uh yeah, yeah, great
Speaker 3: love for Patrick Swayzey.
Speaker 2: Yep, nothing but love. And there's just nothing hotter than
Speaker 2: a man who can dance.
Speaker 3: Oh well, a fabulous dancer. Mike got a fabulous dancer.
Speaker 2: Love it, love it. I'm gonna go watch Dirty Dancing
Speaker 2: right after we're done. Recording. Okay, So Michelle opens her
Speaker 2: mouth wide in disbelief. DJ chews her gum and blows
Speaker 2: a big bubble, and Michelle pops the bubble and tells
Speaker 2: her it's funny.
Speaker 3: That was something that Ashley and Mary Kate we're doing
Speaker 3: at the time you were popping.
Speaker 1: They were popping people's bubbles on there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were obsessed with that. I do remember that.
Speaker 3: Yes, And they would always be you know, if you
Speaker 3: were chewing gum or you had something, they'd come up
Speaker 3: and like touch your mouth, what happy? Right?
Speaker 2: Well having? Yeah, they were very obsessed with what was
Speaker 2: what you were eating in your mouth? Yeah, or putting
Speaker 2: all They would put olives on their fingers, do you remember, Yes,
Speaker 2: they would put olives on my finners.
Speaker 1: Yes, olives on my finners.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so cute. So DJ shakes her head and smiles
Speaker 2: as she tells Michelle not funny. Michelle utters a yeah,
Speaker 2: and then she kind of looks at her hand that's
Speaker 2: all sticking out after popping the bubble, and that's it.
Speaker 2: That's the whole cold open. It's very short.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's very short.
Speaker 2: They're just like, okay, there there's no time for storytelling
Speaker 2: in these cold open.
Speaker 3: No, it's just a it's a just a cute Michelle moment.
Speaker 3: I find the that's what the TEASER's cold open seems.
Speaker 2: To be, and that's that's the running scene here. It's
Speaker 2: always a Michelle Michelle.
Speaker 1: It's just a Michelle related little moment.
Speaker 2: Babies are cute. Everybody loves babies and what they're doing.
Speaker 2: And now we're kind of you know, you can see
Speaker 2: us getting closer and closer to the ulsin Mania that
Speaker 2: is to come in later seasons for sure. Okay, so
Speaker 2: we opened the show for real. In Jesse's room, Jesse
Speaker 2: is wearing glasses, which makes him look very serious for
Speaker 2: Jesse Cazopolis. He's playing the piano and singing a very beautiful,
Speaker 2: heartfelt song. There is crumpled paper and takeout boxes all
Speaker 2: around him, proving that he's been hard at work, and
Speaker 2: the camera pans to a sign that reads Fred's Tire Town.
Speaker 2: Jesse yells and frustration when he realizes he's singing to
Speaker 2: a tire. He starts to beat himself up, saying out loud,
Speaker 2: come on, this is your job. Think think, He reminds himself.
Speaker 2: You don't kill bugs anymore. You write advertising jingles you've
Speaker 2: sold one one and he scratches his head in frustration,
Speaker 2: just like John does in real life. Head scratcher this. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he never stopped doing that, you know, deep in thought
Speaker 2: or frustrated, just to scratch your head.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: Jesse convinces himself he needs inspiration, so he looks to
Speaker 2: the poster of Sammy Davis Junior and he.
Speaker 1: Which is a change.
Speaker 3: We've moved slightly out of Elvis and now we're moving
Speaker 3: more into which is evident also in his suits and things,
Speaker 3: moving more into rat pack era Sinatra.
Speaker 1: You know, uh, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a picture of the rat pack?
Speaker 1: Is this my?
Speaker 2: Everyone? I hope this isn't my everywhere you look, but
Speaker 2: there's a picture of the rat pack behind him. He's
Speaker 2: added some things to the decor in his room.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So Jesse's talking to the poster and he's begging my
Speaker 2: main man, speak to me. There's a knock at Jesse's
Speaker 2: door and steph walks in, announcing it's me, Stephanie Tanner.
Speaker 2: She walks in with Harry announcing to uncle Jesse, this
Speaker 2: is my friend Harry. Jesse says Hi, and Harry happily says, hi,
Speaker 2: uncle Jesse. Steph tells Jesse that Harry is in her class.
Speaker 2: He sits next to the cran bin. WHOA, that's very impressive.
Speaker 3: It's very Yeah, the crayon bin is. I mean, it's
Speaker 3: the place, it's really the hotspot to be.
Speaker 2: It's where all the cool kids.
Speaker 1: Yea, it's where all the cool kids hang out.
Speaker 2: And Jesse obviously preoccupied, he tells Harry. Yes, that's very impressive.
Speaker 2: He sits back down at the piano and tells the
Speaker 2: kids he has two hours to write a jingle for
Speaker 2: Fred's Tire Town, so they need to let him work.
Speaker 2: Steph happily saved.
Speaker 1: It till the last minute.
Speaker 2: I know, right, how much time did he have to
Speaker 2: write this thing? He's definitely he's definitely got a brain
Speaker 2: fog happening here. Yeah, Steph tells him, I can help
Speaker 2: in school. I wrote a poem about milk, and Harry says, yeah,
Speaker 2: it made me want a cookie real bad.
Speaker 3: He is just my number one like, yeah, go, Steph.
Speaker 1: It was great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody needs a Yeah, he is your number one supporter,
Speaker 2: you're cheerleader. I just really really is so much so,
Speaker 2: Jesse explains to Stephanie, I'm involved in the creation of
Speaker 2: a very sophisticated musical composition. Let's see if this sparks anything.
Speaker 2: He starts singing the first part of his jingle, and
Speaker 2: Steph adds her own flare, singing It's a very very
Speaker 2: very very very very very very very very nice place,
Speaker 2: and Harry shakes his head in disbelief, announcing she's done
Speaker 2: it again.
Speaker 3: He really is like just Steph's hype man.
Speaker 1: He's great.
Speaker 2: Steph can do no right in Harry's eyes. So Jesse
Speaker 2: thanks Stephanie for trying, and then pushes the children out
Speaker 2: of the room so he can continue managing his brain block. Immediately,
Speaker 2: Joey walks in carrying Michelle. Jesse groans he can't get
Speaker 2: a moment of peace, but Joey has big news. Michelle
Speaker 2: just said poo poo appropriately you know.
Speaker 1: It's appropriately enough.
Speaker 3: Dave is the one that announces this fact. And also
Speaker 3: that's our nickname for days. Yeah, and he calls us poopoo.
Speaker 2: We all, yeah, we're all poopoop.
Speaker 1: When he said this, I just laughed.
Speaker 2: This is the origin. This is the origins.
Speaker 3: Is this where it came from? We all just started
Speaker 3: calling each other poop poo.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, so Jesse very sarcastically says, well,
Speaker 2: thank you for sharing that with me. Joseph and Joey
Speaker 2: emphasizes this kid is not all talk. First she said it,
Speaker 2: then she did it. I called Danny at work and
Speaker 2: he said, it's a sure sign that Michelle is ready
Speaker 2: for potty training.
Speaker 4: Woo.
Speaker 2: She's very impressive. I feel like Michelle's very young for
Speaker 2: potty training, or maybe I just waited too long time toddler, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I too, wish she even two yet, I don't. I
Speaker 2: figured I thought she was like eighteen months, but maybe
Speaker 2: she's closer to her till.
Speaker 1: I mean, you got it. I think she's closer to
Speaker 1: two in real life.
Speaker 3: I mean, we've obviously watched season one right into season two,
Speaker 3: so it feels a little shorter for us. But she's yeah,
Speaker 3: there's definitely been some time that's passed, so she's more
Speaker 3: like two and a half.
Speaker 2: Okay, oh, okay, yeah, stuff in appropriate. Okay, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: waited till my kids were closer to three, and then
Speaker 2: it becomes it comes a lot easier once you wait.
Speaker 2: And that's true practically tying their line.
Speaker 1: Some people that.
Speaker 3: Are like that that's that work with like potty training infants.
Speaker 3: It's about like reading their body language and putting them
Speaker 3: on the Yeah, oh you.
Speaker 2: Watch for their cues. Okay, Yeah, you watch for their.
Speaker 3: Cues and then you put them on the potty at
Speaker 3: like six months and you just kind of hold them
Speaker 3: there and they and then they start associating with it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't do that. I didn't. That was too
Speaker 2: advanced for me.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, that felt like yeah, it was. That
Speaker 1: felt like a lot.
Speaker 2: I was never that in tune with my kids and
Speaker 2: their cues.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I wasn't just sitting there like are you what are
Speaker 3: you doing?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 1: Although I did. They would go.
Speaker 3: Hide, they hide behind something, and you're like, oh, they're
Speaker 3: creeping up, damn.
Speaker 4: So h.
Speaker 2: Jesse exclaims, all right, and he gives Michelle a high five,
Speaker 2: which adds a huge smile to her face. She's very
Speaker 2: proud of her so cute.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Joey asks how the tie jingle is coming along, and
Speaker 2: Jesse admits, I'm all dried up. I got jingle block.
Speaker 1: You only wrotten one?
Speaker 2: Jesse. I know he's very stressed out, you know, he's
Speaker 2: only sold one.
Speaker 1: Well, he'd procrastinated until he's got two hours.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no wonder he's stressed out. Joey tells him to
Speaker 2: lighten up. It'll come to him. Joey turns around to
Speaker 2: show Michelle the logo for Fred's tire Town, and he asks,
Speaker 2: it's a cool tire huh. When she gives no response,
Speaker 2: he answers his own question in an exaggerated California surfer accent. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like totally radial dude with a cool little hair
Speaker 2: flip at.
Speaker 3: The end, and his hair was long enough to actually
Speaker 3: get a little motion there.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Jesse stares at him blankly and tells him to
Speaker 2: get out. Joey mimics Michelle saying bye bye, and Jesse
Speaker 2: closes the door and mocks Joey's exaggerated surfer voice, saying
Speaker 2: totally radiol dude, accompanied by the hair flip. Jesse shakes
Speaker 2: his head, repeating totally radial. He looks at his Sammy
Speaker 2: Davis Junior poster again, and he asks, hmm, you think.
Speaker 2: Jesse scratches his head and admits him it's it's kind
Speaker 2: of funny. He realizes it's kind of hooky, and he's
Speaker 2: singing totally radial. Totally radial. It's sparked, it has sparked
Speaker 2: an idea something. Yep. We cut to DJ in Stephanie's room,
Speaker 2: where Harry is walking around the room shooting a fake gun.
Speaker 2: When he groans in pain, holding his chest and exclaiming, ugh,
Speaker 2: you got me, he tumbles to the floor, exaggerating his
Speaker 2: death with a big leg flare out. Stephanie is totally unfazed.
Speaker 2: She walks over to him, saying, Master of the Universe,
Speaker 2: your tea is ready.
Speaker 3: It's a reference to he Man, by the way, in
Speaker 3: case anyone was wondering why stuff's calling him master of
Speaker 3: the universe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he made that's some weird Yeah, it's he Man,
Speaker 1: this master of the universe.
Speaker 2: That was great and Sheira and she really huge fan
Speaker 2: of oh fantastic. I agree, yeah, Hair, But Harry stands up.
Speaker 2: He corrects her. I am not master of the universe anymore.
Speaker 2: I am Gi Joe and Gi Joe doesn't drink tea.
Speaker 2: You guys are so cute together. This is just a
Speaker 2: fantastic conversation between six year olds.
Speaker 1: It's true.
Speaker 2: So Stephanie gets very close to his face, very very close,
Speaker 2: and reminds him he does when he plays house with me,
Speaker 2: and Harry obliges, got it, Chief. He knows who the
Speaker 2: boss is.
Speaker 1: Remember remember who is Chief?
Speaker 2: Yes, sir. Harry and Stephanie go to sit for tea,
Speaker 2: and Stephanie says, sweet and low Joe. They both take
Speaker 2: a step from their tiny teacups when Harry shouts.
Speaker 1: This tea is poison.
Speaker 2: They both grab their necks in pain, pretending to choke
Speaker 2: as they stumble around the room before flopping onto DJ's
Speaker 2: bed and laughter.
Speaker 3: I just remember loving moments like that because it was
Speaker 3: you could go so over the top and ridiculous as
Speaker 3: a little kid, and it was like, just go for it.
Speaker 2: It's so cute. It's so imagine a tiv It's just
Speaker 2: such a thing that kids did back in the day.
Speaker 2: It's so cute. I just love all of your interactions together.
Speaker 2: But then DJ runs in. She's dressed in her karate uniform,
Speaker 2: and she yells at the kids. Freeze nerd bombers up
Speaker 2: up and she shoes them off her bed. She threatens,
Speaker 2: you better keep away from my stuff. I just got
Speaker 2: back from karate class and I am pumped. She follows
Speaker 2: this with some karate punches and some yeah, yeah, to
Speaker 2: really get her across.
Speaker 1: They're not quite karate punches.
Speaker 2: Oh they're not.
Speaker 3: No, there's not like her thumbs or everything was. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know how she got her purple belt. That's
Speaker 3: all I'm saying. I don't know how she got.
Speaker 1: Her purple belt with that technique. And I've never even
Speaker 1: really taken that many karate classes.
Speaker 3: But I was like, I don't know that that's that's
Speaker 3: a thing.
Speaker 2: But karate inspired I guess karate inspired moves.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Anyways, so Stuff responds, you're just jealous because I have
Speaker 2: a boyfriend. You don't. The crowd gives a big ooo,
Speaker 2: and DJ snaps back, you're dreaming, you don't have a boyfriend.
Speaker 2: Steph smiles, proudly admitting it. So happens I do. When
Speaker 2: DJ questions who, Stephanie announces him and she points to Harry,
Speaker 2: Harry's I am yeah. His eyes get wide and he's
Speaker 2: like me. Steph shrugs and tells him you're a boy
Speaker 2: you're my friend, and she gets real close to him
Speaker 2: again and concludes that makes you my boyfriend. He nods,
Speaker 2: and he says, got it, cheap. Harry's just willing to
Speaker 2: go along with anything. It's like, yep, the ultimate team
Speaker 2: player here. They continue to play and Steph asks more
Speaker 2: tea Soldier. They take a sip from their tiny teacups
Speaker 2: again and believe it or not, the tea is still poison.
Speaker 2: They choke and fall over. Dj watches them and says aloud,
Speaker 2: I'm never having kids, which is funny because then she
Speaker 2: goes on to have three. Right back in the Tanner's
Speaker 2: living room, Danny walks in yelling for Joey. He asks
Speaker 2: Joey where his little genius is, referring to Michelle, and
Speaker 2: Joey admits the last time I saw Madame Curie, she
Speaker 2: was looking squash off the high chair. They both get
Speaker 2: a kick out of this, and Joey tells Danny that
Speaker 2: she's taken a nap. Danny excitedly opens a package, revealing
Speaker 2: the latest high tech potty that he bought for Michelle.
Speaker 3: Which I'm pretty sure was just a regular potty with
Speaker 3: like a kitchen timer glue.
Speaker 2: It didn't look very high right. It was plastic, it
Speaker 2: was pink.
Speaker 1: It was plastic.
Speaker 3: It was pink, and there was like a little thing
Speaker 3: on the back of it, and I was like, that's
Speaker 3: just like a kitchen timer that they like double stick
Speaker 3: take to it. But anyway, very yes, very high Japan,
Speaker 3: no Japan toilet.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you you know, if it was a bidet,
Speaker 2: Michelle would have been potty trained.
Speaker 1: A year or ago and she was like, I'm never
Speaker 1: leaving this thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it is Japanese and state of the art
Speaker 2: and digital. As Danny tells Joey.
Speaker 3: This is the second reference we've made to Japan in
Speaker 3: this show. And then the fact that we went there
Speaker 3: right eventually.
Speaker 2: Is meant to be.
Speaker 1: It's it's the powerful house.
Speaker 2: So Joey sighs, telling Danny it's all happening so fast,
Speaker 2: pretty soon Michelle will be off to school, and Danny
Speaker 2: adds and meeting boys, Joey continues go into the prom,
Speaker 2: Danny spirals getting married, and Joey suggests we ought to
Speaker 2: think about having another one. Jesse struts through the door,
Speaker 2: telling the guys the kids back. Joey asks you sold
Speaker 2: the jingle and Jesse exclaims yes, sir. Danny congratulates him,
Speaker 2: and Jesse thinks them both singing a part of his
Speaker 2: new jingle, It's totally radial at Fred's tire Town. Danny nods,
Speaker 2: telling Jesse totally radial. That's pretty clever, Jesse tells him,
Speaker 2: don't look at me. Joey came up with it. Joey asks,
Speaker 2: I did, well. Of course I did. Jesse tells him,
Speaker 2: thanks to you, I have a check for eight hundred
Speaker 2: and twenty seven dollars and half of it my friend
Speaker 2: is yours.
Speaker 3: I wish. I was very proud of Jesse for that,
Speaker 3: because I know when he first took the thing, I
Speaker 3: was like, wait, are you taking Joey's idea? And I
Speaker 3: was like, is that the kind of what happened in
Speaker 3: the show? I couldn't remember? And then I was very
Speaker 3: pleased when he gave Joey his credit and half the
Speaker 3: paycheck the same.
Speaker 2: I was shocked and pleasantly surprised that he That was
Speaker 2: a that's a very generous, very big of Jesse, very
Speaker 2: big of Jesse. Jesse doesn't normally think of others, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was shocked. Yeah, it was very nice. He's a
Speaker 2: good partner. Joey thanks him and acknowledges how generous it is,
Speaker 2: and he admits, you know what's real important to me
Speaker 2: is that I get it in cash. He Jesse tells
Speaker 2: Joey that he helped snap him out of his jingle slump.
Speaker 2: Jesse tells him, I almost feel like hugging you. Joey
Speaker 2: sticks out his arms and Jesse emphasizes almost. Danny follows
Speaker 2: the guys into the kitchen and tells them they should celebrate.
Speaker 2: Let's all go out for non fat frozen yogurt, which
Speaker 2: was huge.
Speaker 3: In the late eighties penguins. Oh god, what was there
Speaker 3: was another one?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Like that was that was that was the rage, that
Speaker 3: was the thing. It was, Yeah, non fat frozen yogurt.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I laughed because I'm like, is this
Speaker 2: just Danny being Danny like kind of like, you know,
Speaker 2: he's just he's kind of square like. Of course, this
Speaker 2: would be his version of a wild night out, of
Speaker 2: a wild night out bat frozen yogurt. But yeah, that
Speaker 2: was the thing back in the eighties. You're right, Jesse responds,
Speaker 2: Before we get down and get totally funky, There's one
Speaker 2: more piece of good news. The agency is giving me
Speaker 2: a shot at a national commercial. It's this thing for
Speaker 2: Kitty Crispy's cat food. We got to come up with
Speaker 2: a funny type jingle thing. Jesse looks over to Joey
Speaker 2: and asks if you have a little time, maybe you'd
Speaker 2: like to do a little work together. Maybe you and
Speaker 2: I could become Joey interrupts yes, and Jesse asks partners.
Speaker 2: Joey repeats, yes, of course I will. Jesse is ecstatic.
Speaker 2: He admits that he really needs Joey for this jingle.
Speaker 2: This could make his career take off. Joey assures him
Speaker 2: they will make a great team. Jesse agrees, saying they'll
Speaker 2: be like Butch Cassidy and the Sun Dance Kid. Joey
Speaker 2: asks if he can be Butch and Jesse shakes his head,
Speaker 2: saying not in that shirt, referring to Joey's very colorful
Speaker 2: tied eye shirt that he's wearing, which is the trend
Speaker 2: of Joey's He loves his colorful shirts.
Speaker 1: Again, the eighties color was.
Speaker 2: Big, absolutely so we cut to the bathroom where Danny
Speaker 2: is encouraging Michelle to go potty. He tells her, with
Speaker 2: any luck, this is something you'll be doing the rest
Speaker 2: of your life. Danny has her watch closely as he
Speaker 2: demonstrates with the potty Polly Doll and her tiny toilet.
Speaker 2: Danny explains that after she makes the bell go ding ding,
Speaker 2: she gets a cookie. Michelle grabs her potty and puts
Speaker 2: it on her head, calling it a.
Speaker 3: Hat, which I was like, wait what and then I
Speaker 3: realized it was like just bowl. I think that they
Speaker 3: had there for maybe the but I was because I
Speaker 3: was like, oh no is that wait what going in
Speaker 3: the bowl? And then I was like, oh no, okay,
Speaker 3: never mind.
Speaker 2: It was a bowl that was kind of pointed in
Speaker 2: this saya.
Speaker 3: Yeah it did not look Yeah, I think that was
Speaker 3: probably the thing is they were like, well, we can't
Speaker 3: have her put the potty on her head because that's disgusting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they had a bowl and yeah, it's.
Speaker 2: Very smart, very smart, and Danny shakes his head, telling
Speaker 2: her bad hat not a big hit in the Easter parade.
Speaker 1: My kids went through a phase where they would put
Speaker 1: things on their head.
Speaker 3: So we had a game and we had a game
Speaker 3: and we were like, that's not a hat, and then
Speaker 3: they would like think it was funny to put things
Speaker 3: that weren't hats on their head and like that was a.
Speaker 2: Oh that's so cute. That's so cute. I love I
Speaker 2: love kids and their imaginations. So we cut to Jesse's room.
Speaker 2: Jesse and Joey are practicing for their next big jingle hit,
Speaker 2: Jesse suggests that they should try some different musical styles.
Speaker 2: They start with reggae and Joey improvises a cat jingle
Speaker 2: in this style day oh we ate the cat food
Speaker 2: every day. Oh. Jesse stops the track, saying, all right,
Speaker 2: we got that out of our system. Jesse suggests that
Speaker 2: they try a little conga thing next, and conga drums
Speaker 2: start playing and Joey starts dancing to the beat. Jesse
Speaker 2: asks to the beat do we like this music? And
Speaker 2: Joey tells him to the beat, I think I threw
Speaker 2: my back out.
Speaker 1: Very related story of my life these days.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 2: Jesse decides that they should go back to their roots
Speaker 2: get a little rock and roll going. He starts to
Speaker 2: play a tune on his keyboard and Joey exclaims, oh,
Speaker 2: big daddy, Now this music says cat food. Jesse concludes
Speaker 2: that that's the style, that's the motif. Now they just
Speaker 2: need words. He tells Joey, I mean my partner happens
Speaker 2: to be the king of comedy. He puts him on
Speaker 2: the spot and says, ready, Joey, be funny, because that's
Speaker 2: how it works, right and go like pressing a button.
Speaker 2: Be funny. Joey starts off with, oh hey, what a
Speaker 2: great audience. Oh where are you from? Oh? Cut it out?
Speaker 3: This is the first cut it out.
Speaker 2: I love it here. It is the oranges of cut
Speaker 2: it out.
Speaker 1: And we just heard Dave.
Speaker 2: We just heard Dave. When he was a guest on
Speaker 2: the pod, he told how how he came up with that,
Speaker 2: which was originally Mark Sandrowski's bit that he stole from
Speaker 2: a director and best friend of Dave Kolier Marx Sandrowski.
Speaker 2: Love it. It's all coming together. Jesse is unamused, though,
Speaker 2: and he tells Joey, I need like something catchy, like
Speaker 2: I need, but I need it to be cat food funny.
Speaker 2: Ready be funny. Joey's thinking of ideas, and Jesse pressures
Speaker 2: him again to be funny. Joey panics and says, two
Speaker 2: cats walk into a bar.
Speaker 3: It's just all of the like setups for jokes like okay,
Speaker 3: I love a priest, a rabbi and a cat, or
Speaker 3: sitting in a robo.
Speaker 2: Yes, he's gone through his rolodex of all the jokes.
Speaker 1: He just put a cat in there.
Speaker 2: Yes, So Joey tries to convince him it's not me.
Speaker 2: It's the room. It's like work. In a telethon, he.
Speaker 3: Tells Jesse he's like trying to do comedy over zoom.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's not working.
Speaker 1: Doesn't It doesn't translate.
Speaker 2: So he tells Jesse, we need a funny room. Let's
Speaker 2: go to my room. My room is the funny room,
Speaker 2: and Jesse says, okay. We cut to the kitchen where
Speaker 2: Steph and Harry are having a popsicle eating contest. They
Speaker 2: both look at each other and hold their heads in pain,
Speaker 2: brain freeze ouch. Harry admits ice cream brace bad idea.
Speaker 2: Jesse and Joey walks through the kitchen singing in unison
Speaker 2: funny room, funny room, everybody's going to the funny room.
Speaker 2: Harry smiles at Steph and tells her, I love coming here.
Speaker 1: It is a really unpressed with this weird family.
Speaker 3: They've got horses, there's people yelling funny room around it's
Speaker 3: just popsicles.
Speaker 2: There's cheese, doughnuts, like, there's just this house has got everything.
Speaker 2: It's true. So dj walks in and looks over at
Speaker 2: the kids eating their popsicles, and she mentions to Steph, hey,
Speaker 2: I was saving those ice cream bars for me. And
Speaker 2: Kimmy they're mine, and Steph sadly reports, well, they don't
Speaker 2: have your name on them, and DJ shows her the
Speaker 2: rapper and proves yes they do, and Stephanie exclaims, well,
Speaker 2: I'll be a monkey's uncle, which.
Speaker 3: Which makes me think that Steph saw the name on
Speaker 3: there and was like.
Speaker 2: Well is she playing She just totally trying to.
Speaker 1: Be like, well, they don't have you. I think Steph's
Speaker 1: playing down.
Speaker 2: You think she's playing dumb, all right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: She wanted a popsicle, She wanted to have a race
Speaker 2: with Harry, so she just stole.
Speaker 1: She was like whatever.
Speaker 2: So Steph puts her semi eaten popsicle in DJ's hand
Speaker 2: to give it back to her, and DJ is annoyed
Speaker 2: and yells, you're always messing up my stuff. I warned you,
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna get you back. You won't know when
Speaker 2: it's coming, and you won't know how it's coming, but
Speaker 2: it's coming. DJ storms out of the kitchen and Steph
Speaker 2: turns to Harry and asks, can you see why she
Speaker 2: doesn't have a boyfriend? Which is the best, Just like
Speaker 2: such a shade, such jeff Andy's shade is just yeah,
Speaker 2: chef's kiss. I love it.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's true, so funny, but also like the threat,
Speaker 3: like I've heard my kids yellow that I'm gonna get you,
Speaker 3: and you're like, ooh, I don't like yeah, but that
Speaker 3: you won't see it coming. You don't know when it's coming,
Speaker 3: but it's coming.
Speaker 2: But the threat is very much there. You already don't
Speaker 2: know what it's going to be yet. So next we
Speaker 2: are in Joey's room in the basement. Joey's pumping himself up,
Speaker 2: warming up his funny. He starts to play a fake
Speaker 2: trumpet before rattling off a multitude of impressions. Joey urges
Speaker 2: him to think cat food before pressuring him to start.
Speaker 2: Joey has an idea a duet a guy sings with
Speaker 2: his cat, and Jesse admits that's good. He runs over
Speaker 2: to his keyboard to play a tune. Joey starts to
Speaker 2: sing when I went to my cat to the other day,
Speaker 2: and then stops himself, telling Jesse, you be the guy,
Speaker 2: all be the cat. Jesse loves it, so Joey suggests
Speaker 2: when we make the presentation, I'll sing in a cat voice.
Speaker 2: Jesse loves it, and Joey continues, when we go in there,
Speaker 2: I'll wear a cat suit. Jesse immediately yells, I hate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, no men in a Unitard's never a great idea.
Speaker 2: He went, he went a little bit too far.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not it's never. No. No one wants to
Speaker 1: see that.
Speaker 2: A man, a grown man, in a cat and in a.
Speaker 1: Small meeting room. No, no one, no conference room. No
Speaker 1: one wants to see.
Speaker 2: No. But Joey wants this. Joey pleads, come on, partner,
Speaker 2: I can get a cat costume. My friend was in
Speaker 2: a Broadway play. Oh what the heck was the name
Speaker 2: of it? Again, Jesse painfully says cats, and Joey's like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, that's the one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that one.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 2: This a classic Joey moment here, it's so funny. Jesse
Speaker 2: scratches his head again and reminds Joey that tomorrow morning
Speaker 2: we're going in to make a presentation to a very
Speaker 2: important advertising agency. It's going to be a room full
Speaker 2: of serious suits and ties. We can't go in there
Speaker 2: acting like amateurs. Trust me, I'm a professional.
Speaker 1: Slow down, Jesse, you've sold one jingle, one comp subtle.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's a little overconfident. But he's got a point too.
Speaker 3: Like he's got a point. He's got a point. Cat
Speaker 3: Suit's never a great idea.
Speaker 2: Joey tells him, Hey, trust me, I'm a professional too,
Speaker 2: as he's eating handfuls of this cat food. Oh god,
Speaker 2: that's so good, right, he continues, they want a funny jingle.
Speaker 2: Let's go in there and be funny. Jesse snatches the
Speaker 2: cat food out of Joey's hand in annoyance. He yells,
Speaker 2: no cat suit, and Joey asks, well, how about just
Speaker 2: ears and a tail. Joey emphasizes this is no joke.
Speaker 2: Now you look me in the eye and you promise
Speaker 2: me no cat suit? He asks, So I guess the
Speaker 2: six foot ball of yarn is out of the question.
Speaker 2: I love that, jo Yeah. I love their dynamic.
Speaker 1: Football of yarn.
Speaker 2: So next we cut to the ad agency. Oo, we're here.
Speaker 2: This is it. This is the moment. Jesse tells the
Speaker 2: advertising executives that his partner will be there shortly. He asks,
Speaker 2: in the time, can I get you anything? Freshen up
Speaker 2: your coffee, sharpen your pencils. The camera cuts to a
Speaker 2: group of executives all staring back at him blankly.
Speaker 1: This which is. Actually, it's very the very true. Room
Speaker 1: of executives is just.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a tough roomy. They're not nice, they're not cordial.
Speaker 1: No, no, they're very serious. Yes.
Speaker 2: Joey enters in a enters the room in a full
Speaker 2: suit and just hand. It looks very hand. This say
Speaker 2: is we're back to joe to serious like business attire.
Speaker 2: Joe He looks great. Jesse immediately introduces him to the
Speaker 2: group as Joseph Gladstone. Jesse starts the presentation. My partner
Speaker 2: and I have worked long and hard to come up
Speaker 2: with a campaign that we feel has strong consumer appeal.
Speaker 2: May I present and Joey holds up a cat puppet
Speaker 2: dressed in a red suit jacket and a top hat
Speaker 2: and a monocle, causing Jesse to stutter Cat Puppet. He
Speaker 2: quickly composes himself and announces cat Puppet to the executives,
Speaker 2: who do not amused at all.
Speaker 3: Which is unfortunate because cat puppets are always funny. Puppets
Speaker 3: in general always funny, and.
Speaker 2: Joey loves his puppets.
Speaker 1: Joey loves his This is the first of men of
Speaker 1: many puppets.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, so, Jesse whispers, Joey, I think you and
Speaker 2: I have to have a little talk, Joey announces to
Speaker 2: the group right after this word from Kitty Crispy's. Jesse
Speaker 2: tries to stop him, but Joey presses play on the
Speaker 2: tape recorder, forcing them to start. Jesse starts to sing
Speaker 2: as Joey waves the cat puppet back and forth. Joey
Speaker 2: sings through the cat puppet in a cartoony voice, and
Speaker 2: Jesse keeps pushing the cat puppet down and repeating the
Speaker 2: lines that the cat puppet just sang. But the cat
Speaker 2: puppet interrupts him. Jesse continues that a brand new tree, yes,
Speaker 2: so cute. Jesse continues the jingle, and Joey dances the
Speaker 2: cat puppet up and down Jesse's arm, and they sing
Speaker 2: the last sunt line in unison, and Joey opens his briefcase,
Speaker 2: revealing three more kitten puppets singing backup genius. Just.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's got a chorus of puppets, of cat puppets.
Speaker 3: You know, he has put some time and effort into this.
Speaker 3: I don't know why Jesse is mad. I think he
Speaker 3: you know, he didn't come in a cat suit, and
Speaker 3: he's and He's got not only one cat puppet, three
Speaker 3: minuture ones.
Speaker 2: He's got four, a total of four cat puppet, four
Speaker 2: cat with costumes. And this wasn't cheap, no Jesse.
Speaker 1: You know, he really puts some effort into this. I
Speaker 1: feel like he's being a little harsh, but.
Speaker 2: This, this is kind of like the early beginnings of
Speaker 2: Full House. Rewind to be honest, we got puppets, we
Speaker 2: got voices, we got songs. Yeah, there's a lot going
Speaker 2: on here. So uh, Jesse continues the jingle as Joey
Speaker 2: walks the cat puppet around to each executive, doing dance
Speaker 2: moves to each of them. Joey follows right behind. Oh no, no,
Speaker 2: Jesse follows right behind, trying to do damage control.
Speaker 3: Well, technically Joey is behind the cat puppet, so it's
Speaker 3: the true cat puppet Joey, then Jesse, he guess.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 2: Then Joey rubs the cat puppet on a half bald
Speaker 2: man's head, messing up his hair, and Jesse tries to
Speaker 2: fix it while continuing to see this is so cringe
Speaker 2: and so funny, right, I know, I can just feel
Speaker 2: Jesse's mortification here that I mean, don't.
Speaker 3: You imagine, right, everything's going great up until the moment
Speaker 3: the cat puppet starts, you know, fondling some bald man's head,
Speaker 3: and then it just goes south.
Speaker 2: So Jesse grabs the puppet and drags him to the
Speaker 2: front of the room, finishing the jingle with a bang
Speaker 2: as the audience applauds.
Speaker 3: But the exacty he finishes the jingle with him with
Speaker 3: the cats.
Speaker 1: And the chorus, and they're open. I mean, it was brilliant.
Speaker 1: It's a full production.
Speaker 2: Was a plus. Joey has put some time and thought
Speaker 2: into this, and everyone loves it except the executives, who
Speaker 2: are still not impressed, not laughing.
Speaker 1: I'm still trying to fix his hair, right.
Speaker 2: So we cut to the living room, where Danny is
Speaker 2: chasing Michelle around, saying, come here, your little food processor.
Speaker 2: He sits her on his lap and assures her, don't
Speaker 2: worry no more potty training today. All I really want
Speaker 2: is for you to be happy, get good grades, and
Speaker 2: get into an Ivy League college. Michelle, who is very
Speaker 2: very clearly staring at someone off stage. Danny continues and says,
Speaker 2: of course, most major universities do want you to be
Speaker 2: potty trained. True. Danny gives Michelle a kiss, and the
Speaker 2: audience goes aw. Steph runs downstairs, yelling, daddy, look what
Speaker 2: DJ did. She pulls a string of shoes behind her
Speaker 2: that are all tied together by their laces.
Speaker 3: Brilliant, by the way, I mean a plus on the sibling,
Speaker 3: Like this is.
Speaker 2: Good payback lotting. Yeah, yeah, this is great, this was
Speaker 2: well thought out. DJ follows behind, yelling I did it
Speaker 2: for your own good and Steph threatens, boy, are you
Speaker 2: gonna get it? She looks at her dad and asks,
Speaker 2: ready on your mark, get set, punish, and we're gonna
Speaker 2: talk about these outfits here. First of all, because Candice,
Speaker 2: you know, she's got this this oversized purple sweater with
Speaker 2: matching purple flats. Yeah, and then you are wearing another
Speaker 2: three D sweater with hot chocolate on hot chocolate. It's
Speaker 2: got hot chocolate, it's.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's turquoise, right. I think it was like
Speaker 3: kind of a bluish color.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was blue. It was fantastic.
Speaker 3: Again, the sweaters of the eighties, you know, for those
Speaker 3: of you who weren't actually alive and you think that
Speaker 3: like ugly Christmas sweater parties are.
Speaker 1: Just a thing that like we invented.
Speaker 3: These were these sweaters existed, Yeah, and they wore People
Speaker 3: wore them actually, like not like look how stupid this is,
Speaker 3: but like, look how cool this is.
Speaker 1: It was very cool.
Speaker 3: So I cannot say enough about the sweater and the
Speaker 3: tactile accessories on these sweaters. You were also made them
Speaker 3: very hard to wash.
Speaker 1: I mean not like I was washing them, but right.
Speaker 2: But yeah, did you have to dry clean? I feel
Speaker 2: like these are dry clean only because of the I.
Speaker 1: Feel like there was a lot of stuff that was
Speaker 1: like pinned on to turn it in.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Not practical for children.
Speaker 2: Definitely not practical for a six year old who's doing
Speaker 2: popsicle eating contests, probably spilling a lot of things on
Speaker 2: her shirt. Yeah, yeah, practical, but very fashionable indeed. So
Speaker 2: DJ says, she's always messing with my stuff. I had
Speaker 2: to teach her a lesson, and Danny says, I'll take
Speaker 2: it from here. First, he addresses Stephanie, saying, you know
Speaker 2: that we need to treat each other's property with respect.
Speaker 2: Then he looks to DJ, telling her, in this family,
Speaker 2: we do not tie each other's shoes together unless there's
Speaker 2: some kind of weird emergency. DJ says, okay, and steph
Speaker 2: says sure as both girls walk away in different directions,
Speaker 2: but Danny stops them, saying, red light. What's our rule
Speaker 2: after we fight? The girls say in unison, never walk away. Angry,
Speaker 2: Danny tells them that's very good and encourages them to apologize.
Speaker 2: The girls walk up to each other and let out
Speaker 2: a disingenuous sorry, this is great. Sorry. Yeah, if they
Speaker 2: could not be less genuine about that sorry. They both
Speaker 2: look to their dad for approval, and he tells DJ
Speaker 2: to help Stephanie untie her shoes.
Speaker 1: That's gonna take a while.
Speaker 2: Michelle says, poo poo in the middle of this lecture.
Speaker 1: And as you do when you're two and.
Speaker 2: A half, Dave still says that not much has changed, right.
Speaker 2: Danny gets very excited, telling Michelle, Oh, why don't we
Speaker 2: just mosey on upstairs, you know, and sit down, maybe
Speaker 2: on the potty, and we'll thumb through some college catalogs.
Speaker 2: He's very excited about this breakthroughs okay. When Danny walks away,
Speaker 2: Stephanie shouts, okay, DJ, you heard the man untie my shoes.
Speaker 2: DJ corrects her. The man said help untie her shoes.
Speaker 2: Here's some help. Start with the little white sneaker. Steph responds,
Speaker 2: you have to untie them too. They start arguing back
Speaker 2: and forth. Jesse and Joey burst through the door, Joey
Speaker 2: yelling no I didn't and Jesse yelling back, yes you did,
Speaker 2: while stephan DJ are also yelling at each other, all
Speaker 2: four of them in unison. This is a great bit,
Speaker 2: This is fantastic. All four of them stop once they
Speaker 2: realize they're doing the exact same thing, and then Joey
Speaker 2: walks away yelling again yes you did. Stephanie blames DJ,
Speaker 2: saying see what you started as DJ, kids are a
Speaker 2: nasty glare. Love the parallels, excellent writing. Yeah in the kitchen,
Speaker 2: Joey defensively asks, why do I get all the blame
Speaker 2: for this? Huh? They said, thank you very much, but
Speaker 2: we're going another way. Jesse explains that that's advertising lingo
Speaker 2: for put your puppet where the sun don't shine. Joey
Speaker 2: tells him I took a risk. I dared to be silly,
Speaker 2: and Jesse says, why didn't you tell me before you
Speaker 2: dare to be silly? You promised me.
Speaker 3: I mean it is sort of a surprise to come
Speaker 3: in and be doing an entirely different pitch than the
Speaker 3: other person is prepared for.
Speaker 2: I'm kind of team Jesse here, you know.
Speaker 1: Well, I they're both.
Speaker 3: Joey needed to be like, hey, bro, this is what
Speaker 3: we're doing.
Speaker 1: Jesse needed to maybe let Joey be a little more creative.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: True, But ultimately you need to communicate with your business
Speaker 2: partner and tell them what you're planning. Don't don't surprise
Speaker 2: them with a brand new pitch right in the middle.
Speaker 3: Not everyone loves a puppet surprise, right right, I do.
Speaker 1: But not everyone does exactly.
Speaker 2: So Joey reminds him, hey, I kept my promise. I
Speaker 2: did not wear a cat suit. Fair point, But Jesse
Speaker 2: snaps back, you wore a cat suit on your hand,
Speaker 2: and then you stabbed me in the back with it.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 2: Joey emphasizes this is not that big of a deal.
Speaker 2: You're not really mad at me. There is something else
Speaker 2: bothering you, and joe asks what Jesse's real problem is.
Speaker 2: Jesse snaps back, my problem is I'm living in the
Speaker 2: same house with you. Joey asked, what do you mean
Speaker 2: by that, and Jesse tells him, well, maybe it means
Speaker 2: we don't need three fathers. Haven't you ever seen that show?
Speaker 2: My Two Dads? Two is all you need. We see
Speaker 2: Stephanie and DJ secretly watching from the door. The guys
Speaker 2: both storm away, and as they try to get to
Speaker 2: their rooms, they can't figure out how to open the
Speaker 2: baby gates, so they hop over. So relatable. We did
Speaker 2: this fuller all the time. We could not open those
Speaker 2: dang baby gates. And then stephan DJ go back into
Speaker 2: the living room, where Steph is kind of worried. She
Speaker 2: points out that they seem really mad. She asks are
Speaker 2: they going to get a divorce? And DJ and shores no, not.
Speaker 2: If we get them to make up, you get Uncle
Speaker 2: Jesse and I'll get Joey. We'll all meet back in
Speaker 2: our room. Steph compliments DJ, saying she has a really
Speaker 2: great mind. She picks up her tied together shoes and ads,
Speaker 2: if only you could use it for good, stephan Or
Speaker 2: singers I love him yep. So in DJ and Stephanie's room,
Speaker 2: Jesse's there with Stephanie and he assures Stephanie that there
Speaker 2: are no monsters in her closet, but he'll check for her.
Speaker 1: At the same there is a random sprite canon there.
Speaker 2: That okay, that was my everywhere you look, Yeah, that's okay, sorry,
Speaker 2: but I noticed that too. I was like, and I rewound.
Speaker 3: I was like, wait, is it gonna I was like,
Speaker 3: is it gonna come into play? Like is it there
Speaker 3: for a re And then I was just like, oh no,
Speaker 3: we just left it in there and.
Speaker 1: It was the It was the Starbucks cup of Game
Speaker 1: of Thrones.
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly, we were doing the leftover cup before or
Speaker 2: seven up can in the in the closet. It was
Speaker 2: probably one of us. It was probably one of the
Speaker 2: child actors who was drinking on the set when they
Speaker 2: weren't supposed to drinking a soda and no less and
Speaker 2: then just all just make in the closet. No one
Speaker 2: will see it in the closet. It was probably from
Speaker 2: three episodes to two.
Speaker 1: That's up high for a kid. I'm saying, it's one.
Speaker 2: Of the adults. Oh okay, let's let's blame John then,
Speaker 2: because John's hit the one in the closet. That's yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: it's John. So at the same time, DJ brings Joey
Speaker 2: into their room, convincing him that they broke a window.
Speaker 2: Joey walks right over the window, realizes it's not broken,
Speaker 2: and then looks over at Jesse, who stares right back.
Speaker 2: Steph announces, well, well, well look who's here. Jesse doesn't
Speaker 2: hesitate when he says, well, well, well look who's leaving.
Speaker 2: Joey agrees that he's out of there, and DJ yells
Speaker 2: red light to both of them and they stop. DJ
Speaker 2: reminds them we have a rule in this house, never
Speaker 2: walk away angry, and Steph begs, so, say you're sorry
Speaker 2: to each other. Please. This is such a cool role reversal,
Speaker 2: Like the girls have learned from Danny and they're really.
Speaker 3: Cute watching the kids are like, oh, okay, we absorbed
Speaker 3: this and now we.
Speaker 1: Have to, you know, parrot them.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's very satisfied as a parent whose kids don't
Speaker 2: really haven't really gotten that yet to that stage where
Speaker 2: they don't yeah right.
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's like, it's such a cute
Speaker 3: moment because it's it reminds you that, like, you know,
Speaker 3: these are lessons that said always come up in your
Speaker 3: life of like you know, whether you're an adult or
Speaker 3: whether you're a kid, and I think, you know, tapping
Speaker 3: into that.
Speaker 1: Like it made the adults and the kids watching this.
Speaker 3: Show be like, oh, yeah, that is like I can
Speaker 3: relate to that.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It kind of grabbed both audiences and was like, this
Speaker 3: happens to everybody.
Speaker 1: So here's the lesson.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it does not that, it's not age. Yeah,
Speaker 2: even adults they fight, they can't see they're blinded by
Speaker 2: their anger. They can't see past it, and they the
Speaker 2: guys needed the girls to kind of interrupt this moment,
Speaker 2: so Jesse interrupting, So uh did Jesse and Joey give
Speaker 2: each other a very lousy sorry? And DJ admits that
Speaker 2: was pathetic. Danny opens the door at this moment and
Speaker 2: tells them all, well, I don't want to get anybody's
Speaker 2: hopes up, but I think Michelle is on the verge
Speaker 2: of a major breakthrough. The potty bell deings and Danny exclaims,
Speaker 2: oh my god, we're missing it.
Speaker 3: That was what I meant by interrupting about Okay, Danny
Speaker 3: comes in and.
Speaker 2: Oh, Danny's very hype about this potty training, very I mean,
Speaker 2: so into it. Everyone runs into the hall to see
Speaker 2: if they can witness this breakthrough. Right as Michelle walks
Speaker 2: out of the bathroom with a huge grin on her
Speaker 2: face holding a magazine under her arm.
Speaker 3: So cute, it's cute, But how did she I mean, finish,
Speaker 3: oh what she needed to do and pull the pants
Speaker 3: up and do the whole you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I feel like normally they need more help with wipe being.
Speaker 3: Or getting a little concerned picking her up, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean? Yeah, I would not I'd be like,
Speaker 3: let's let's go take a bath, take a bath.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't touch that magazine. I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. But everyone laughs and Danny congratulates
Speaker 2: Michelle on her triumph. Danny tells her, come on, little mouse,
Speaker 2: I'll get you ready and we'll all go out and celebrate.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 2: We cut to the living room. They all laugh and
Speaker 2: Jesse remarks, dear little pumpkin sucker. Joey asks, did you
Speaker 2: see her with that magazine? Was that too cute or what?
Speaker 2: The two are laughing with one another, and Jeff and
Speaker 2: Steph asks, does this mean you're not going to get
Speaker 2: a divorce? Joey asks, what are you talking about? And
Speaker 2: Steph reminds them, well, you said that there were too
Speaker 2: many dads here. Jesse realizes the girls overheard them fighting
Speaker 2: and DJ tells them, we don't want anybody to leave.
Speaker 2: Joey tells the girls that they all need to talk,
Speaker 2: So the four of them walk into the girl's bedroom
Speaker 2: and sit at Steph's tiny tea table in her tiny chairs.
Speaker 2: Joey emphasizes nobody is leaving this house, and Jesse tells
Speaker 2: them we just had a little fight. Sometimes in the
Speaker 2: heat of the moment, you say things you don't really mean,
Speaker 2: and he adds, you know what I'm talking about. You
Speaker 2: guys fight all the time. But DJ tells him, well,
Speaker 2: we're sisters, We're supposed to fight, and Steph adds it's
Speaker 2: our job.
Speaker 3: Kind of true, said those exact same things. They're like, no,
Speaker 3: this is We're like, we're legally obligated to fight.
Speaker 2: Sorry, how it has to be. It's part of the
Speaker 2: job description, you must write, right. Jesse equates this to
Speaker 2: him and Joey. They fight like brothers. Joey is touched
Speaker 2: by this and he asks, wait, you think of me
Speaker 2: like a brother. Jesse tells him, well, you definitely irritate
Speaker 2: me like a brother. Joey wholeheartedly tells him that is
Speaker 2: the nicest thing you've ever said to me, and Jesse responds,
Speaker 2: we helped raise these kids together. We do the laundry together,
Speaker 2: we make school lunches together. Somewhere along the line, we
Speaker 2: became brothers and housewives. Joey parents or parents, right, just
Speaker 2: parents who are parenting. It's not gendered. Joey apologizes for
Speaker 2: springing that puppet on him. He explains, I thought it
Speaker 2: would be a big hit. I was trying to surprise you,
Speaker 2: but I guess I should have talked to you about
Speaker 2: it first. Jesse admitted that it was cute. Then he
Speaker 2: apologed Jesus to Joey for getting crazy. He tells him,
Speaker 2: you know that thing you said about something else, was
Speaker 2: that something else was bothering me. You're right, I'm scared.
Speaker 2: This is very sudden, and there's very like sudden violins
Speaker 2: this the music swells, and we know that, like this
Speaker 2: is a serious conversation.
Speaker 1: That Jesse's having a Jesse's having a life moment.
Speaker 2: He's having a feeling again, and everyone is shocked. The
Speaker 2: whole room is shocked. Jesse admits he's scared of not
Speaker 2: making it. He says, you don't know how hard it
Speaker 2: was to break away from my father, to leave the
Speaker 2: family business. The thought of me crawling back killing bugs again,
Speaker 2: admitting that I failed. I just don't know if I'm
Speaker 2: good enough man. This boy to exists? Does this hit
Speaker 2: an emotional button too? Because we just saw this a
Speaker 2: couple episodes where you had that huge fight with Grandpa
Speaker 2: Kitzopolis and leaving the family.
Speaker 3: Now you see, though, why I was so confused when
Speaker 3: I watched this first.
Speaker 1: I was like, what happening?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Wait where where?
Speaker 3: Now I'm like, oh, we had a fight and there
Speaker 3: was yeah, and it's all tracking so much better.
Speaker 2: It all makes sense now, so Joey reassures him, no
Speaker 2: one ever knows. I go through that same fear every
Speaker 2: time I jump up on stage and try to make
Speaker 2: people laugh. But you gotta hang tough. You got a
Speaker 2: real talent. Joey tells Jesse that they all have faith
Speaker 2: in him. Jesse thanks them, saying it makes him feel
Speaker 2: a lot better. Jesse admits to Joey that they make
Speaker 2: a pretty good team, and Joey agrees they did some
Speaker 2: good stuff. Jesse asks if he still wants to be partners,
Speaker 2: and Joey responds, like Butch and Sun dance. Jesse laughs
Speaker 2: and adds Martin and Lewis, Steph shouts burton Ernie. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: that's it.
Speaker 1: Right, miss Piggy Burton Ernie, I mean back to the Puppets.
Speaker 2: Yes, you are just a lover of muppets from the
Speaker 2: age of six on.
Speaker 1: I have Burton Ernie on my wall right in that painting.
Speaker 1: You do well.
Speaker 3: But they're recreating a scene from pole fiction, so it's
Speaker 3: not exactly like sesame straight Friendly.
Speaker 1: It's really funny, though.
Speaker 2: Why does this not surprise me? So Jesse and Joey
Speaker 2: look at her in unison and say, no puppets. Joey
Speaker 2: holds out his hand and says put her there, partner.
Speaker 2: Jesse says, come he her bro and pulls him in
Speaker 2: for a hug instead. Steph yell's this calls for a
Speaker 2: tea party. The boys excitedly sit down and do a
Speaker 2: tea party, toast with their tiny tea cups. Oh that's
Speaker 2: a lot of that's alliteration. Yes, yes, a lot of alliteration.
Speaker 1: Toast with their tiny tea cups.
Speaker 2: After they all take a sip of tea, Steph screams
Speaker 2: in horror, this tea is poison. They all grab their
Speaker 2: throats and fall over, yelling, and that is our show.
Speaker 2: A great callback this great, great way to wrap up
Speaker 2: the episode. Oh, very such a good episode. This was fantastic,
Speaker 2: cute little button.
Speaker 3: It was a little button. Great episode. Makes so much
Speaker 3: more sense now watching it in the correct order. I really, yeah,
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm back on track now. I know
Speaker 3: what's happening.
Speaker 2: And this is the beginning of a long, illustrious career
Speaker 2: of jingle writing for Jesse and Jessy. There's much more
Speaker 2: to come.
Speaker 1: Much more to come, more puppets to come. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: there's there's a lot.
Speaker 2: This is a great career move for them because Jesse
Speaker 2: is very musical, Joey's very funny and if you find
Speaker 2: I do think they are going to make a great
Speaker 2: team now that they've got past.
Speaker 1: This jingles in the late eighties night.
Speaker 3: I mean I can still remember some of the stupid
Speaker 3: jingles from commercial.
Speaker 1: I mean they play in my head in the middle
Speaker 1: of the night, you know, But.
Speaker 2: Yeah, jingles. So Myrtle's jingle.
Speaker 3: Writing was a big was a big thing, you know,
Speaker 3: because people the younger generation might be like, who what jingle?
Speaker 3: You're like, no, it was you heard it on the radio.
Speaker 3: You heard on the little song that's stuck in your
Speaker 3: head and that yeah.
Speaker 2: And that was a sign of a successful jingle, as
Speaker 2: if it sticks in your head for eternity and then
Speaker 2: you're like, oh yeah, success.
Speaker 1: One eight hundred Empire.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like, you know, so, uh I wrote, okay,
Speaker 2: so where you talked about my everywhere you look with
Speaker 2: the green soda can and the closet? Did you have
Speaker 2: a everywhere you look?
Speaker 1: I did?
Speaker 3: I had an everywhere you look in one scene and
Speaker 3: I forget where I think where it's Uh, Jesse and
Speaker 3: Joey decide to start like kind of being partners or whatever.
Speaker 1: Dave is totally chewing gum in a scene.
Speaker 2: He is.
Speaker 3: He come, he walks, and which is like such an
Speaker 3: it's like such an actor. No, no, if you're not
Speaker 3: supposed to so many scenes.
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to. But he comes in and he's like.
Speaker 3: And then I watch him like he's talking, like he's
Speaker 3: talking and he kind of like tucks it back here,
Speaker 3: and then I see like another like and he'd like
Speaker 3: and I'm like.
Speaker 2: Suddenly chew gum.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, but it was I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: he's chewing gum in the scene. So that was yeah, Dave.

Speaker 3: but the previous two to this also had the Scotti's water.
Speaker 2: Would do you remember this beat? Did you have a
Speaker 2: Scottie dog?
Speaker 1: No, just like I guess my mom it was.
Speaker 3: My mom had one when she was like her first
Speaker 3: apartment when she moved out at twenty. Oh okay, you
Speaker 3: know I used to hear, but I never had a
Speaker 3: Scottie dog. I didn't know that they were so popular.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were just a trend in nineteen eighty eight.
Speaker 3: They were the They were like the French bulldogs of
Speaker 3: nineteen eighty eight.
Speaker 2: That's great. You're consistent too, you you like Scottie dogs
Speaker 2: and yep, they're gonna be evidence.
