Speaker 1: I am all in. Oh, let's just I am all
Speaker 1: in with Scott Patterson and I heart radio podcast. Everybody,
Speaker 1: Scott Patterson, I Am all in Podcast? They shoot Gilmore's
Speaker 1: Don't Say Season three, Episode seven. Jesus, what can I
Speaker 1: say about this? Air date November twelve, two thousand and two. Danielle,
Speaker 1: I guess take us um well, let me introduce the
Speaker 1: ball Club Tara s Hello, Amy Sugarman, Daniel Romo, thanks
Speaker 1: for joining everybody. Yes, explain why I look crazy? Why
Speaker 1: you look what crazy? Internet? Yeah, I'm in my bed
Speaker 1: because I'm in Lake Tahoe and there's an animal living
Speaker 1: in my house upstairs. There's animals living in your house upstairs?
Speaker 1: What kind of animal? So I can't go upstairs where
Speaker 1: this would look normal, so I had to. I'm crisscross
Speaker 1: Apple sauce in the bed because it was the only
Speaker 1: place I could get the computer and the microphone. So
Speaker 1: this is not the first time there's been an animal
Speaker 1: living in the room upstairs, the second time because one
Speaker 1: time I was in Tahoe went to bed. I was
Speaker 1: so happy to be here and realized I slept all
Speaker 1: night with a dead squirrel in the bed with so
Speaker 1: the squirrel. A new squirrel is back. I'm living upstairs,
Speaker 1: So I apologize in advance. So when so when somebody
Speaker 1: advised you to buy home where you could be closer
Speaker 1: to nature, how do you feel about that advice? Now,
Speaker 1: it's so you're not saying you're actually crazy. You know,
Speaker 1: bats in the belfry. It's not like another metaphor for
Speaker 1: bats in the bell for you actually do have owls
Speaker 1: in your attic. Yesh got you have a squirrel in
Speaker 1: the loft up there, and we've had bears in the house.
Speaker 1: So it's like you've had bears in your house. Sleep
Speaker 1: all night because I could hear the thing. I could
Speaker 1: hear the animal, and I was like panicking. So anyway,
Speaker 1: enough about that. I apologize in advance because this is
Speaker 1: like the most important episode of all times. So I
Speaker 1: will zip it. Danielle take us away after that? I mean,
Speaker 1: how are we going to top that? I'll take it
Speaker 1: away with the synopsis determined to When the annual Stars
Speaker 1: Hollow twenty four our dance marathon, Lower Life forces Rory
Speaker 1: to be her partner. Well, everyone in town dances around them.
Speaker 1: Rory and Jess can't seem to stop arguing with each other,
Speaker 1: a fact that is not lost on Dean Dundone. Lane
Speaker 1: and Bears are both surprised when the boys they like
Speaker 1: dropped by to see you. Okay. First of all, Kenny
Speaker 1: Ortega directed to Sammy Sherman Palladino wrote this episode, I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you something, This may have been the best
Speaker 1: hour of television I have ever seen ever in my
Speaker 1: entire You know, I'm still relatively young, and I know
Speaker 1: there's a lot more living to do and a lot
Speaker 1: more TV to say, but it was it was like
Speaker 1: a movie. Well it was just when you think that
Speaker 1: one set piece was funnier or slicker or cooler than
Speaker 1: the next, then something else happens it's even better. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was just literally the best episode of Gilmore that
Speaker 1: I've seen, and I don't think there are any shows
Speaker 1: that can top what Gilmore does. When it's firing on
Speaker 1: all cylinders. This thing was firing not only on all cylinders.
Speaker 1: They had to have cylinder people come in and install
Speaker 1: new cylinders. The old the old garage was filled with
Speaker 1: let's put some new ones in just to keep up
Speaker 1: with the pace. I mean, it was fantastic. Doesn't know
Speaker 1: Kenny Ortega did high school music, which you can tell yes, yes,
Speaker 1: you can really wear you put the camera. How it
Speaker 1: was choreographed, it was brilliant, absolutely brilliant. And he's a
Speaker 1: big you know, he's a big dance guy, big choreographer
Speaker 1: Kenny as well as a brilliant director, and it was just,
Speaker 1: you know, all of these elements coming together. I gotta say,
Speaker 1: right off the bat, you know, I know we're not
Speaker 1: there yet, but my favorite line that made me just
Speaker 1: blurt out laughing out loud, got topped and I want
Speaker 1: to save everything, but it kept getting topped and topped
Speaker 1: and topped, and I thought, you know, I thought it
Speaker 1: was the best. I'm Paris had some great best lines.
Speaker 1: And then David Galci comes in does that smooth cool
Speaker 1: scene which was beyond genius, right, was beyond genius. Was
Speaker 1: how good was that? I mean, he just he was
Speaker 1: He's that guy, He's that guy that in high school
Speaker 1: that's just so smart and cool, just works your parents
Speaker 1: and just gets him to fall in love. Well he
Speaker 1: gets what he wants. I mean, it was just so great.
Speaker 1: I feel there's so much of Adam Brody in that,
Speaker 1: bringing so much brilliance to that character because it's him,
Speaker 1: that's him. Yeah, I can see him have having done
Speaker 1: that in his youth, which probably wasn't you know, too
Speaker 1: far prior to uh him filming that actual episode. But
Speaker 1: he's such a highlight to Gilmore Girls, and I'm convinced
Speaker 1: he would have become like forever on the show if
Speaker 1: the if the O C hadn't come along, he wasn't
Speaker 1: gonna stick around. Yeah he was, no, I remember him
Speaker 1: on set. It's like, all of these guys are there.
Speaker 1: They're too smart, their agents are too smart too, sort
Speaker 1: of keeping them pinned down to that show for longer
Speaker 1: than a year or two because they knew that that
Speaker 1: was a great launch pad for them, you know. And
Speaker 1: they're young guys and they wanted all and they all
Speaker 1: have you know, they all had a shot to do it,
Speaker 1: and they all did it right. They all launched into
Speaker 1: the stratosphere pretty much. Um, yes, and it really is right.
Speaker 1: But what a funny like like the Shane's line, who
Speaker 1: you Bobby Brady get a life? Brilliant just brilliant stuff,
Speaker 1: brilliant stuff. I'm over the moon about this. I mean literally,
Speaker 1: this was a perfect episode for me, just perfect. This
Speaker 1: is my favorite episodes since Brace Bridge Dinner. That was
Speaker 1: the last one that had me like this. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh God, it's so good for us, don't don't you
Speaker 1: think this is one of the most iconic episodes of
Speaker 1: the whole series. Yeah, I think it's like in the
Speaker 1: top three most memorable Gilmore Girls episode. Yeah, right, because
Speaker 1: you've seen the whole thing. You've seen it multiple times, right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: So my number one hasn't come up yet, but when
Speaker 1: we get there, all you know, so far this this
Speaker 1: is my number one. So far, I'll never I know
Speaker 1: we're jumping to the end, but I'll it's forever. I
Speaker 1: remember the line and I won't get it exactly right.
Speaker 1: But when Jess says I gotta go do something right, yeah,
Speaker 1: because I wrote that and he resonated the first time
Speaker 1: I saw it. And I've seen this episode five times probably,
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh my god, because you know exactly
Speaker 1: what he's going to do, and don't I wrote it
Speaker 1: down and I said, what is he going to do?
Speaker 1: Is going to go up Shane? He was going to
Speaker 1: go dump Shane. He's going to break up with Oh
Speaker 1: I got that far, Like, I was like, oh, he's
Speaker 1: going going to do that, But I obviously don't know
Speaker 1: what happens, so I'm like, is it just that or
Speaker 1: is he doing something else? Giving her he's he's going
Speaker 1: to come back with a rickshaw. I made this for you.
Speaker 1: He waits until she says he was right, and then
Speaker 1: just kind of, you know, hems and haws for a second,
Speaker 1: and then he says no, he was right, and he's like,
Speaker 1: are you over? Like are you over? And she's like
Speaker 1: we're yes. And then he's like, I gotta go do
Speaker 1: something because he's not an ass. He's going to go
Speaker 1: break up with Shane so that he can do this
Speaker 1: right with Rory. And I made that confirmation from her too,
Speaker 1: like in her words, like yes, it's done right. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was so proud of Dean. I was so proud
Speaker 1: of Dean. I stood up and when you go girl,
Speaker 1: I mean you go boy, you go boy. I had
Speaker 1: the same thought as used gout. I was like, finally, Dean,
Speaker 1: I'm so happy you did that. Like and I didn't
Speaker 1: care that I was in front of the whole the
Speaker 1: whole dance marathon. I'm like, you know what, yeah, you
Speaker 1: you go, you do it? Yeah, just end it. Just
Speaker 1: walk away because it was so awkward. When they were
Speaker 1: getting the sandwiches and then so it was like, how
Speaker 1: are you dealing with this? How Dean was getting irritated,
Speaker 1: but it was like, oh my gosh, this is getting
Speaker 1: bad now. He really like sitting in the front row
Speaker 1: watching wall. Shane's like so not interested, but he's like
Speaker 1: sitting up right just watching their every move. Right, So
Speaker 1: here's the question. Why isn't Dean dancing with Rory? Was
Speaker 1: he just qualified because they didn't register and they didn't
Speaker 1: They couldn't. They wanted to dance. They wanted just to watch.
Speaker 1: They wanted to watch Laurel. I was so desperate to dance.
Speaker 1: Laurel is one that wanted to partner. Was Rory needing
Speaker 1: a partner and they never wanted to dance. Having this
Speaker 1: weird it was like Laura Line having this weird fixation
Speaker 1: with a big trophy, like her competitive nature coming out. Okay,
Speaker 1: you guys, before we get off the rails, we've got
Speaker 1: to go back to the beginning of the episode. So, Scott,
Speaker 1: did you notice at the beginning of the episode it
Speaker 1: started like no other episode ever, with the voiceover essentially
Speaker 1: the two of you while the camera panned the town. Yes,
Speaker 1: still Halloween. Yes, can't get away from Halloween. Hey man,
Speaker 1: you gotta milk it right. That was so that was
Speaker 1: such a new opening and I loved it, but it
Speaker 1: threw you for a minute because you're like, wait, I
Speaker 1: hear them, but I don't see that. The voices, the
Speaker 1: most two most important voices in the whole show, going
Speaker 1: back and forth to establish to establish a tableau. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought the Actually that opening scene was at little
Speaker 1: clunky for me. I would have Um, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I wanted it to be better. I wanted the timing
Speaker 1: to be better. I wanted it to be funnier. I
Speaker 1: wanted there was just something about it for me that
Speaker 1: was a little off. But as soon as you get
Speaker 1: past the intro and the great Carol King song, and
Speaker 1: then it's just aft of the races. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was just like NonStop. Um yeah you know that. It's look,
Speaker 1: why not take advantage of that beautiful set in the
Speaker 1: beautiful town and all the beautiful decorations. Yea sweeping shot
Speaker 1: show it. He must be he's a brilliant director, because
Speaker 1: that isn't so challenging what he did. That is everyone
Speaker 1: in their right places. I mean, I think there were
Speaker 1: cars going and all kinds of things, cameras just sweeping
Speaker 1: through the town. That was such a good crew. I
Speaker 1: mean from top to bottom. All the communication was just
Speaker 1: you know, spot on, and that's what it takes, and
Speaker 1: your rehearsal rehearse to rehearse, and then all of a
Speaker 1: sudden you get that kind of brilliance, that kind of perfection. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so great crew. Menu at Luke's. Did anyone notice to
Speaker 1: me that menu look new? But I could be crazy.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I do have one thing I have
Speaker 1: to bring up, though, You guys, you have to go
Speaker 1: back and rewatch this. It was so bad. Do you
Speaker 1: know what I'm gonna talk. I'm gonna already watch this
Speaker 1: episode again and again. I had to watch it this
Speaker 1: morning because I got in late and I couldn't see
Speaker 1: it last night, and I was just like, damn, I
Speaker 1: could have seen it a second time this morning. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but there is something in the opening scene, especially considering
Speaker 1: that now I am a background actor connoisseur. I've noticed
Speaker 1: it two and we will get to that. Okay, So
Speaker 1: you want me to hold on it, don't you don't?
Speaker 1: Don't you usurp me? Do it? You got it. Don't
Speaker 1: do it, sir, You've got what is it? What is it?
Speaker 1: It might be something, yeah, it might be something different. Okay,
Speaker 1: So there is a red haired woman. Do you know
Speaker 1: who I'm talking about? Yes, that was explained that to me. No,
Speaker 1: you go ahead, No, it's your you go ahead, you
Speaker 1: got you have to explain. Maybe there was a reason
Speaker 1: they told her because they maybe they didn't think they
Speaker 1: were going to use that show. I mean, she stirred
Speaker 1: and stirred and stirred for for so long that it
Speaker 1: was awkward, like it was like something's wrong, and I
Speaker 1: keep my eyes are going to her as opposed to
Speaker 1: you and Taylor. It was like, take a bite, girl,
Speaker 1: what's going on? Yeah? Actually, did Taylor say f you
Speaker 1: to me? What did you say? Fump you? What did
Speaker 1: he say? Did he say that? Seriously? Walked in and
Speaker 1: I said, he goes, no, not you know I want
Speaker 1: and then he goes, oh, look, pump you or something
Speaker 1: like he did he did and my own diner. We
Speaker 1: all need to rewatch. But for the Instagram, please please,
Speaker 1: we need to freeze frame on this woman. It was Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was one of my It's gonna be in my
Speaker 1: my notes. It's in my list of things. There's a
Speaker 1: couple of other things. You know, we'll get into it.
Speaker 1: You know, he couldn't keep Jesse's collar up and then
Speaker 1: down and then up and down and up and down
Speaker 1: and up and down. And I will say, I'm proud
Speaker 1: that Dean ate the pizza. I noticed that he actually
Speaker 1: took a bite and the pizza and ate it. And
Speaker 1: he swallowed just before his line. It was perfect, right,
Speaker 1: I committed. It's like he actually ate it. All right, Well, okay,
Speaker 1: so we go. Then I'm it's still debatable if we
Speaker 1: go in order and we jump around, so we're just
Speaker 1: gonna like do what we want. But they go to
Speaker 1: Friday Night dinner, which I thought was hilarious about the chicken,
Speaker 1: and then Lorela once made the peace talk and Emily's like,
Speaker 1: what's going on? And all she wants is this partner,
Speaker 1: and then the whole drama was Stanley and families Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Emily turning into Luke saying, no cell phones at
Speaker 1: my dinner, Like Luke says, no, you know, same deal,
Speaker 1: same deal. You can tell that cell phones are getting
Speaker 1: more and more custom everyone has one, getting more and
Speaker 1: and and everybody aware of how annoying they are. And
Speaker 1: so we go from Friday night dinner to Chilton, which
Speaker 1: immediately I was like, why are they making out? Did
Speaker 1: you guys notice that? Yeah? Yeah, and she says time time.
Speaker 1: This is a very good episode for Paris. I have
Speaker 1: to give it to her. It was very very she
Speaker 1: was very funny. It's very very good. And how adorable
Speaker 1: is Jamie? Right? Yeah? But you know it was when
Speaker 1: he wouldn't let go over hand, he said, it was
Speaker 1: almost like he was lording over her about what a
Speaker 1: prize he was, and that he's decided because he couldn't
Speaker 1: get his mind off her, that he's now available to her.
Speaker 1: It's like, I just thought, dude, get over yourself. It
Speaker 1: was arrogant. I thought there was. There was one part
Speaker 1: where I went, WHOA, someone's in love with themselves. See
Speaker 1: that to me? What I So, I've decided to grace
Speaker 1: you with my presence here, and yes, I like you.
Speaker 1: Now It's like, dude, what do you? What? What for me?
Speaker 1: That's what makes him so charming, Like he really crushes
Speaker 1: on her and she's so sort of insecure about it
Speaker 1: that it's almost his like over sort of. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, I think she needs that because it's Paris,
Speaker 1: Like she needs that, like to know how much he
Speaker 1: actually wants to be with her. Yeah, for the most part,
Speaker 1: I I felt that way too, But there was one
Speaker 1: line that he said that sort of made me go,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I mean he's cocky, but he goes
Speaker 1: to Princeton and he's a college boy, like he kind
Speaker 1: of has the right and he's a kind of bay delicious,
Speaker 1: such a such a young looking fella. He's a young
Speaker 1: looking I just love when he's like holding her hand
Speaker 1: and says, do you need your hand and she's all,
Speaker 1: I've got another, and then he walks away and she goes,
Speaker 1: he he has my books, go get them, Paris, go
Speaker 1: get I just love that Rory's rooting her onto like
Speaker 1: she's like standing there. Just a part of it. I
Speaker 1: just love. Also, she's so Paris. She's like a good move.
Speaker 1: You saved us both from a lot of distractions. Back
Speaker 1: and forth is so cute. And then she's so happy
Speaker 1: when we come back and see her in chemistry class
Speaker 1: and she's late for class and then she's so smitten
Speaker 1: she slept. Was that a great pause by her teacher?
Speaker 1: She paused a little bit and you're kidding. I'm actually
Speaker 1: really happy. I needed to see this side of Paris
Speaker 1: where she's just kind of a little goofy and and
Speaker 1: lovey Debbie. I mean, she's not love you Deviie, but
Speaker 1: you know she's like she's this guy. You know, she
Speaker 1: was a Yeah, it was nice to see her a
Speaker 1: little softer. Um and Madeline Louise are hysterical when they
Speaker 1: realized that they had the free weekend. They go, what
Speaker 1: what did you say available? Okay, they start working the room,
Speaker 1: coming to each boy in the room, and then the
Speaker 1: one was like I couldn't do it, and they're like,
Speaker 1: She's like, I got two over here. We kind of
Speaker 1: jumped around a little b which is fine. But there's
Speaker 1: also the scene where Lane is hanging up on Dave
Speaker 1: like they're all like to Dean, like, you don't get it.
Speaker 1: You're a boy. Did you used to listening for girls
Speaker 1: in the background? I know, I think I think we
Speaker 1: all did that up on people. Well, you know, I
Speaker 1: would went in school or junior high or high school. Yeah,
Speaker 1: i'd call girls and hang up if I if I
Speaker 1: was crushing on them, and I didn't, you know, I
Speaker 1: didn't have the nerve to say hey, you know me
Speaker 1: and lunch room when you know this, you know kind
Speaker 1: of thing, you know, you do that kind of crazy stuff.
Speaker 1: And there wasn't color I d so they wouldn't have no. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I definitely used to do that. What was it? Start,
Speaker 1: Start sixty next nine, Star six nine, call the number
Speaker 1: and then as soon as it's like hello, hang up
Speaker 1: and then just giggles for like two minutes straight, Star
Speaker 1: six seven or something, then your numbers blocked. Yeah, whatever
Speaker 1: the blocking one was, I remember I did that. A
Speaker 1: Star six nine is the one that like, if someone
Speaker 1: calls you, you call them right back. Let me tell
Speaker 1: you something. I grew up in the era of the
Speaker 1: rotary phone, okay, and then the push button phone was
Speaker 1: the new technology and there was no such thing as
Speaker 1: a Star sixty nine okay, So we were like we
Speaker 1: could not be surveiled or tracked or nobody we were doing.
Speaker 1: We were get away with murder. Uh one, wasn't it
Speaker 1: just last week we were talking about teping. Yeah, keeping
Speaker 1: a crank call. That was a wonderful time. Hey you
Speaker 1: got sir Walter Rawle and a can you but a
Speaker 1: little out refrigerator? I'm gonna catch it like those were
Speaker 1: the old timey cranks. Wait, I will give a special
Speaker 1: shout out though to Lane's orange sweater with the elephant
Speaker 1: on it. Oh yeah, I loved it all right. So
Speaker 1: then Lor like convinces Rory to be your partner, and
Speaker 1: we learn a little bit of the background about the
Speaker 1: marathon that you know they wanted to watch it, and
Speaker 1: that Andrew always gets in a fight, which I kind
Speaker 1: of love that Andrew gets a shout out. He's such
Speaker 1: a like small character but yet big enough that we
Speaker 1: know who he is. But look at the dialoge, look
Speaker 1: at the dialogue he's given. You went out with Liam Neeson,
Speaker 1: and now you decide to tell me this now here,
Speaker 1: in this moment. You didn't need to tell him. I
Speaker 1: didn't want to know that. You know, I don't like
Speaker 1: Liam Neeson. Kirk wins and they planned that right, and
Speaker 1: they planted that Seed and Maury after one song. Alright,
Speaker 1: we're done. How amazing? Were they so good us? They
Speaker 1: just wanted to be involved, like support that. Now we're out,
Speaker 1: Like the episode totally moved. So we go straight from
Speaker 1: chemistry class to Rory and lor l in there like
Speaker 1: amazing outfits, costumes, outfits, whatever, you want to call everyone
Speaker 1: the costume person. I know you always say the Scott
Speaker 1: deserved an Emmy for this episode. For sure. Absolutely, Brenda
Speaker 1: Maiden hit it out of the park with us. I mean,
Speaker 1: this was it really really vibe. It's so early in
Speaker 1: the morning and you're like, oh my god, this thing's going.
Speaker 1: Why didn't Luke have coffee ready that early? A great question?
Speaker 1: What was that? I don't know. That's a tough one
Speaker 1: bitter build a swallow drama of the four and four,
Speaker 1: which that was a little bit sort of like ridiculous. No,
Speaker 1: I I totally agree with him. I totally agree with him.
Speaker 1: Don't meddle in my personal life, don't meddle in my marriage.
Speaker 1: She was meddling. She was meddling. I don't care. No
Speaker 1: Szuki asked up, I don't care, Suki y she Suki
Speaker 1: was out of line to ask Laurel lie about four
Speaker 1: and four. It's like she prefers being having drinks, so
Speaker 1: having babies. What the family value is that chat? I
Speaker 1: think Suki shouldn't have gone back and told agree with
Speaker 1: Utara but like yeah, Jackson, but like the girls like
Speaker 1: to talk and it should have stayed between the two
Speaker 1: of them. Yeah, but she actually took it. But she did.
Speaker 1: She took the advice and she went back to Jackson says, well,
Speaker 1: laurel I said I should only have one so I
Speaker 1: can have a couple of drinks. I mean, it's like
Speaker 1: what But she even admits the way she said it
Speaker 1: was not how Laurel I said it. Like Suki completely
Speaker 1: changed it. And that's why Jackson kind of went off
Speaker 1: the rails because it was it did seem meddling the
Speaker 1: way Suki made it sound. But Lorea is just like dude,
Speaker 1: four and four first of all, four and four is crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: four and four is waiting, four is hard. Was like
Speaker 1: maybe none wed some great lines in this, by the way,
Speaker 1: and we get the sweetest scene ever between Luke and
Speaker 1: Loreli because of it. Oh my god, melting the right
Speaker 1: person and they're just gazing. But they have that scene frequently.
Speaker 1: That's that's not the first time they've had that scene.
Speaker 1: That seems to be the classic Luke and Laurelai t scene.
Speaker 1: They do that in in in other episodes, and I
Speaker 1: remember doing that scene like it was almost every episode
Speaker 1: I did a scene like that. We're sort of like
Speaker 1: batting our eyes in everyone who wants a kid? You
Speaker 1: know he's not kid. Yes, he wants a kid. She
Speaker 1: she warmed to the idea. Come on, that's a that's
Speaker 1: a serious conversation to have with a buddy, you know,
Speaker 1: fixing my shoe there, buddy? What do I look like
Speaker 1: my cobbler? To you? I look like a funny line.
Speaker 1: But they're they're so together with it being together, It's
Speaker 1: like they really are. It shows how firmly entrenched she
Speaker 1: is in that town and she ain't leaving. She's happy there.
Speaker 1: She's settled. That's it, And that's the guy. That's her guy.
Speaker 1: She's not going anywhere. They're not going anywhere. Even if
Speaker 1: Frey goes off to fame and fortune. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: in her professional life, she's coming back to stars hullo.
Speaker 1: She may raise a family there, who the heck knows,
Speaker 1: But it just feels like she's firmly entrenched and that's
Speaker 1: her choice. That's her guy. Yeah. I mean, we've also
Speaker 1: going from deviled eggs to eggless eggs sandwiches, and I
Speaker 1: thought was like that. It's just there's so much happening
Speaker 1: in this episode, and each thing it just keep coming
Speaker 1: at you perfect because without the eggless egg sandwiches and
Speaker 1: the scooping. We wouldn't have Dave Regowski coming in doing
Speaker 1: so much bit about the sam It's all like genius
Speaker 1: there was to eat. One part that I really questioned
Speaker 1: in this episode though, is when Mrs kim asked who
Speaker 1: Jess is? Does she not know him yet? Why would she?
Speaker 1: How would she know? I mean, I guess it's a
Speaker 1: small town, but she must have heard something, right, She's
Speaker 1: got her ear to the ground all the time, right,
Speaker 1: doesn't she? She's like, who are you? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, Like I had to like go back.
Speaker 1: I'm like, how long has Jess been in this town?
Speaker 1: Like it just took me a second to be like, right,
Speaker 1: how would she not know that that was the guy
Speaker 1: who crashed the car and Rory broke her arm? Or
Speaker 1: maybe she never saw and the chalk outline in front
Speaker 1: of doxies us to Lane School. You think there's somebody
Speaker 1: that goes to Lane School that Mrs kimball. Maybe she
Speaker 1: didn't see it. You know, she's a either church or
Speaker 1: Bible study or at you stores, at her home. You know,
Speaker 1: where's she going? But maybe she's heard of him but
Speaker 1: has never put a phase, So maybe that's our Maybe
Speaker 1: Scott remember if what during all this dancing is that
Speaker 1: music live? No? No, that was that was the actual
Speaker 1: Glenn Miller recording. But they're still dancing to silence? Or
Speaker 1: do they get to dance to music? I think, well
Speaker 1: not during dialogue. If there's dialogue, then there's dialogue the
Speaker 1: whole time. Then there's no music in the background. How
Speaker 1: do they do that? But you can't do it because
Speaker 1: the microphone is going to pick up the music as
Speaker 1: well's background acting. How could you dance and talk and
Speaker 1: there's no music, And like, I don't even know how
Speaker 1: you would do that. You just get you know, you
Speaker 1: get the rhythm and they you know, they probably play
Speaker 1: the song for everybody to kind of get the rhythm
Speaker 1: to it and then they'll just keep going. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's that hard, you know. They maybe some of
Speaker 1: them had earphones in or earpieces, who knows, But no,
Speaker 1: you can't play the live music while the while the
Speaker 1: dialogue is being weak. So if there's no dialogue, then
Speaker 1: the music could go. Like I keep thinking about thirteen
Speaker 1: going on thirty when they're doing the Michael Jackson dance.
Speaker 1: How could they do that with Danielle immediately knew it.
Speaker 1: What could they do the dance without the music? The
Speaker 1: background people knew the song that that that that that
Speaker 1: that and and and and and and they probably like
Speaker 1: practice with the music and then once you start rolling,
Speaker 1: there's no music, but you got the but there no,
Speaker 1: there's no way. It's silent when when the when the
Speaker 1: actors are talking, when they're doing dialogue all seriousness. Do
Speaker 1: you guys think you could do a dance marathon for
Speaker 1: twenty four hours? No way, wouldn't be interested. I mean
Speaker 1: for charity, I do it, sure, but I may be
Speaker 1: interested if I had the right partner. And I think,
Speaker 1: like how many breaks did they get? Because they showed
Speaker 1: one break, So I just I'm curious, like what were
Speaker 1: the rules. Didn't they get like a break an hour
Speaker 1: or break? Every had that yellow card break, but they
Speaker 1: also had like a break and that's when they wanted
Speaker 1: to get Yeah, right, I thought it was like every hour,
Speaker 1: but maybe it's every couple of hours. I don't know.
Speaker 1: And this is the best. This is the best scene
Speaker 1: for Taylor, best show for Taylor I've ever seen. How
Speaker 1: great was he? And let this and it's show time.
Speaker 1: He was so in his element. He had so much fun.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, was he was? He a delight he was.
Speaker 1: I wish I lived in Stars Hollow because I think
Speaker 1: I would love to be in that. I would I
Speaker 1: would sign up for that marathon. Like squirrels situation is
Speaker 1: like so Stars Holliday, I'm trying so hard to be focused,
Speaker 1: but like every five seconds, I'm hearing something and I'm
Speaker 1: like afraid it's going to come out of the closet
Speaker 1: because like if it gets upstairs, it gets up there somehow.
Speaker 1: Have you called pest control? Have you called the animal control?
Speaker 1: I mean you you can't squirrel We all know that.
Speaker 1: That's obvious. I heard it. So I can't even show
Speaker 1: you guys. But like this is my bed right, there's
Speaker 1: the wall. I heard it going up the wall right,
Speaker 1: like I can touch the wall, and I heard going
Speaker 1: up the wall. I mean this was me all night.
Speaker 1: So so it's inside the walls. The squirrels inside the walls. Well,
Speaker 1: you have to call a pest control. So in a
Speaker 1: different house in Tahoe, we had squirrels I don't even
Speaker 1: know how they did it, that would go and get
Speaker 1: entire rolls of toilet paper. They would come into the house,
Speaker 1: Get entire rolls of toilet paper, take them up, and
Speaker 1: we're building nests like squirrels are Squirrels are like I
Speaker 1: just had a great I just had a great idea. Hey,
Speaker 1: get the squirrel. Capture the squirrel. We'll have him on
Speaker 1: his guest. We'll do an episode with the squirrel. What's
Speaker 1: it like living with Amy? What's the deal? What are
Speaker 1: her nocturnal habits? Do you think we're kind of like
Speaker 1: a Gilmore Girls episode? Ever? Like this podcast too much technology?
Speaker 1: You're blowing You're blowing my mind right now. I don't know. Wow. Okay,
Speaker 1: back to the dance Marathon and other eyes persons on
Speaker 1: the Classic and he walked through like like they walked
Speaker 1: through like they were such a badasses, just right through
Speaker 1: the middle. God, that was unauthorized persons on the dance.
Speaker 1: Kirk's girl does that crazy cart wheel flip and then
Speaker 1: let me flip you let me. I have one beef
Speaker 1: with Lorlie at the dance marathon. You do not buy
Speaker 1: new shoes? Yes to dance in for twenty four hours.
Speaker 1: They were vintage born in, but only a few times
Speaker 1: she said I no no chance in. How so why
Speaker 1: would you dance in heels. That's not required. What about
Speaker 1: the flats and come fee Like at that time they
Speaker 1: had sketchers. Is sketchers for women? Why right? Why would
Speaker 1: you not dance in sketchers? Like who's yeah, hours so
Speaker 1: crazy or barefoot? You know, it's better than shoes. Oh
Speaker 1: my god. You guys during the time when they had
Speaker 1: to do the run around and like gloralized Mattock Curtneys,
Speaker 1: I'm drafting you like it was like it was a
Speaker 1: horse race. Yea, yeah, you know I did. Look I did.
Speaker 1: I did a mini marathon for charity down in Malibu.
Speaker 1: I don't know, fifteen years ago when I was drafting
Speaker 1: the bike ride part of it, which is a couple
Speaker 1: of whiles. The entire time I was drafting behind David Cover.
Speaker 1: I did, and then I passed him at the very
Speaker 1: last and he got all piste off at me. He's like,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? You were drafting. I said, well,
Speaker 1: that's what. So that's the responsibility of a leaders to
Speaker 1: know somebody's going to draft. A drafting is legal, right,
Speaker 1: You're allowed to draft. I don't think you are. Oh
Speaker 1: it's considered like rude. I think it is. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it's I think I had. I think I violated
Speaker 1: some kind of drafting CODEY got a little pissy. I
Speaker 1: know I was just kidding. He didn't you know that.
Speaker 1: I have like massive love for David Dukeovany and I've
Speaker 1: met him and I get like, I can't control myself.
Speaker 1: We used to did one other person that does this,
Speaker 1: who does so shocked Sean White for whatever reason, gets
Speaker 1: amy and a tizzy. I met him, you know, I
Speaker 1: met him at my old gym and I took a picture.
Speaker 1: Du Coveny's in my top five. Shaan White's in my
Speaker 1: top five. And we were with Shawn White like a
Speaker 1: month ago. I couldn't even I can't talk to him.
Speaker 1: I just run away. He's a great guy. He was
Speaker 1: really friendly. He's so nice. He is nicest, sweetest, coolest
Speaker 1: guy around. But I just get like, because I just
Speaker 1: secretly love him. But I can chat with Ducovany, I'm
Speaker 1: more normal about my love. Reminds me of we used
Speaker 1: to do this. This is such a sidebar, but we
Speaker 1: used to do this thing called the text files, So
Speaker 1: you know the X files. We do this thing called
Speaker 1: the text files, and we would make David Ducovney read
Speaker 1: texts on someone's phone and give like advice for how
Speaker 1: bad they weren't text anyway back to the Gilmore Girls.
Speaker 1: That sounds like a monster hit concept right there. Wait,
Speaker 1: so do we feel bad for Shane or do we
Speaker 1: just don't care um a little? But I think she's
Speaker 1: one of the great supporting characters of all time. I
Speaker 1: mean she handled Look, she handled little tiny bits of
Speaker 1: dialogue like a like, oh man, that the way she
Speaker 1: turned that line on, It's like, who you, Bobby Brady,
Speaker 1: get a life? She laughs at her and then just
Speaker 1: says something. She goes whatever it was. She was perfect.
Speaker 1: She was perfect. I agree, what about the I'm bored?
Speaker 1: And then and then Jess goes okay, and then you
Speaker 1: start making out line that was almost like a throwaway
Speaker 1: line that I think is one of the best in
Speaker 1: the whole episodes. So Suki and Jackson are having their
Speaker 1: like crazy fight, right and lor Leon Luke are there
Speaker 1: and they walk away and you go, they're gonna make
Speaker 1: great parents, right, very lukey line. So many great lines.
Speaker 1: Like the whole time, I was like, wow, he's like
Speaker 1: just on one at this. I don't I don't know
Speaker 1: that he I don't know if Luke Luke did have
Speaker 1: some great lines in this. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: achieved you know, upper tier status for this episode for
Speaker 1: great lines. No, but he gave that comedic relief. Well
Speaker 1: a lot of people did. No, I but I agree,
Speaker 1: I agree, but a lot of people did. Um. Back
Speaker 1: to Shane, I think that actress, I think that could
Speaker 1: have been that character. That character she's playing should have
Speaker 1: been in another series. What a great character. And she's
Speaker 1: she's so good in it. Isn't she isn't just an impression.
Speaker 1: She does lines, she really does say much like she
Speaker 1: doesn't have that many lines, but just she's a presences.
Speaker 1: She's really she really is terrific. Um gosh, I hope
Speaker 1: she gets a break something because man, there's see that's
Speaker 1: the thing. There are there are so many people out
Speaker 1: there that are so talented and they're just not enough
Speaker 1: spots for them. You know. It's like there's so many
Speaker 1: people competing for one little role that pops up, and
Speaker 1: it's frustrating. But she's she was great and thank god
Speaker 1: we we we all got to see her work. Um. Anyway,
Speaker 1: so now we're down to six couples. So we're down
Speaker 1: to six couples. The shoe incidents happening, it's just drama.
Speaker 1: Somebody fell and who I can't remember who says that
Speaker 1: when someone goes that one's gone or yea, and they
Speaker 1: were the way they were collapsing dead on the floor
Speaker 1: really funny. So then you're fixing the shoe and we
Speaker 1: have the sweet, sweet conversation, like I mean, if all
Speaker 1: the things happening in this episode, and then we get
Speaker 1: that like major sort of connection between the two of them.
Speaker 1: Yet gotta remind the audience, Uh, you know about that?
Speaker 1: Do we heat checked there? You know, because you know
Speaker 1: you don't want to. You don't want it to be
Speaker 1: buddies for too long. You don't want it to thaw out, right,
Speaker 1: I mean you do you do want it to thaw out? Sorry, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah you do. You're right that. It's like, I
Speaker 1: don't know how to explain it. There's it's so important
Speaker 1: that we're constantly reminded. Well, it's it's like about these two.
Speaker 1: You know, the Rory HF storyline is taken over the series.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's pretty much you know what, probably that
Speaker 1: demo at that time wanted to see, which is why
Speaker 1: they were pushing it. You know, the looking Laurel. I think, great,
Speaker 1: that's that's all fine. You know that's gonna be there,
Speaker 1: that's going to be long term. Uh So, I think
Speaker 1: they just didn't know how long they were going to
Speaker 1: have Jess because of you know, a how he looks,
Speaker 1: how he asks, how he is. He was going to
Speaker 1: go on to bigger and better things, and the studio
Speaker 1: knew that. Warner Brothers knew that, except they also they
Speaker 1: probably they probably offered him a seven year deal. They
Speaker 1: had that spinoff pilot, so they obviously we're in the
Speaker 1: myvent Amelia business, no question, right right right, and there
Speaker 1: you go, there you go, there you go. Um, we'll
Speaker 1: get so. So they probably they just wanted to maximize
Speaker 1: him and that character while they had him, and I
Speaker 1: think they did a great job. They did a really
Speaker 1: great always have the consistency of Luke and Lorelei always
Speaker 1: from moment one, always there's no rush with that. That's
Speaker 1: just hey, and thank thank God for it because it
Speaker 1: gave me, that gave the character longevity and me a job.
Speaker 1: I saw a TikTok this weekend and it's like on
Speaker 1: my for you page, so that means it's just coming
Speaker 1: up obviously my for you page knows I like Gilmore Girls,
Speaker 1: but and it had Luke and Lorelie. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: twenty years later and it shows them and just says endgame.
Speaker 1: And it's just like Luke and LORELEI are still in
Speaker 1: the pop culture everything well always will be. And know, uh,
Speaker 1: my assistant sent me an article, um this Weekend Entertainment
Speaker 1: Weekly and it or maybe it was from two thousand
Speaker 1: and four and she just found it and she sent
Speaker 1: it to me and she goes, were you aware of this?
Speaker 1: And they were interviews when they were according Norman Mailer
Speaker 1: to come on the show, and how they were going
Speaker 1: back and forth with him and Amy and how he
Speaker 1: was going to appear. And Norman Mailer's son, who was
Speaker 1: an actor, theater stage actor, um of some note on
Speaker 1: these coast. I was trying to convince his dad, Hey,
Speaker 1: you should do the show. That offered you the show.
Speaker 1: You should do the show. So Amy sent him an
Speaker 1: outline of the episode what the show is all about.
Speaker 1: Norman Mailer got back to him and this is in
Speaker 1: the e W article. I've never seen this before. I
Speaker 1: never heard about it. There was never a headline about
Speaker 1: it except in this one. E W thing and it
Speaker 1: wasn't really Luke and Laurel I thing. And he said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I like this. I like the tone of this. I
Speaker 1: I like the Luke and Laurel I bit. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I'll do this Norman Mailer approval by Norman Mailer,
Speaker 1: that storyline. So yeah, I mean, look at the world.
Speaker 1: I are always named in the top like I don't know,
Speaker 1: let's say, twenty iconic TV couples of all time. It's like,
Speaker 1: what is that? Like? It's kind of cool. It's like
Speaker 1: it's like what me, you know, come on, I got
Speaker 1: lucky to be in the same list as Ross and Rachel.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like yeah, but I mean even go
Speaker 1: back further, like when I was growing up, what it's like,
Speaker 1: you know is Don Adams and Barbara Feldon of get
Speaker 1: Smart an iconic TV couple. Because to me, if he
Speaker 1: said Lucy and DESI maybe right, Okay, so Lucy, but
Speaker 1: I I had a monster crush when I was a
Speaker 1: kid on Barbara Feldon. I could not get enough of
Speaker 1: Barbara Feldon. I'm telling you, she just was everything to me. Um. Yes,
Speaker 1: So if we're in that same conversation with Lucy and Desira.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's it's wild. It's just crazy. Yeah. So okay,
Speaker 1: So so now we come back and we've talked about it,
Speaker 1: but we're at the scene where Adam Brody comes in.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's such a great scene, and the
Speaker 1: interaction between Dave and Mrs Kim and Lane, and then
Speaker 1: at the end she's like he seemed hungry, hungry, so
Speaker 1: many double anton's in there. It just made me so
Speaker 1: happy for Lane and I love how like this episode was.
Speaker 1: Paris and Lane finally were like getting the attention from
Speaker 1: these boys to crush on. And then Rory's situation is
Speaker 1: like the complete opposite. But you see her friends like
Speaker 1: happy for a moment, and I think you don't see
Speaker 1: that in the series. Well, up until this point, we
Speaker 1: don't see like it's all about Rory. But now you're like, okay,
Speaker 1: like Lane's doing well, Paris is doing well, and then
Speaker 1: and you have Rory. Yeah, but Rory, I think it's
Speaker 1: in the same league with with those other two. She
Speaker 1: it's just causing a little pain to get there, but
Speaker 1: she's but she's getting what she wants and Jesse's getting
Speaker 1: what I mean. It's kind of a happy moment for
Speaker 1: both of them. They just want to They just need
Speaker 1: to wallow a little bit, They need to suffer a
Speaker 1: little bit. My notes say, this is normally like the
Speaker 1: whole episode with the tension, if tension is the right word,
Speaker 1: between Rory and Dean and Shane and Jess, and really
Speaker 1: it's Rory and Jess, but Dean is just getting the
Speaker 1: shrapnel of it. And it's just normally like I don't
Speaker 1: know how to explain it, like like Danielle said, the
Speaker 1: arm around and then them arguing and it's and then
Speaker 1: Dean's just finally like we're done. I would have been
Speaker 1: really upset if Dean didn't break up with Rory after
Speaker 1: this episode, like it had to, it had to be done.
Speaker 1: Do you think that Jess felt bad once at all?
Speaker 1: Like blew up, He's getting what he's wanted so bad
Speaker 1: the way that it happened, Like I don't like me,
Speaker 1: Like I think like Dean had to break up with her,
Speaker 1: that needed to end. But like do you think Jess
Speaker 1: really thought that it would happen that way? No, but
Speaker 1: I think he was If he doesn't feel bad, then
Speaker 1: he's a monster, then he's a sociopass. But he does
Speaker 1: feel he does feel bad. No, I know, no, but
Speaker 1: she's she's saying, do you think Jess felt bad and
Speaker 1: like at all? So yes, he did. He was. He
Speaker 1: was surprised that it happened so quickly, and I think
Speaker 1: he had a plan and he was. That's how he
Speaker 1: was pursuing her. He wasn't just some you know, innocent
Speaker 1: in the backgrounds, you know, claiming innocence. He was pushing
Speaker 1: the narrow he was pushing that narrative. He wanted her,
Speaker 1: That's how he was doing. But once he got the result,
Speaker 1: he saw that the pain it caused her and the
Speaker 1: pain it caused and he probably felt bad because because
Speaker 1: Jared had something really great and Jared decided to walk
Speaker 1: away from it, which show Jess, wow, that's kind of
Speaker 1: like what a man does. So who was the bigger
Speaker 1: person there? And it was really Jared. That's looking better
Speaker 1: than both of them. Your Dean really really took it
Speaker 1: this episode. Like, I gotta give it to him, his
Speaker 1: whole thing. I'm not her boyfriend anymore. You've been into
Speaker 1: him since he got into town. Everyone can see it.
Speaker 1: Rory be together. They hold on the next line, though
Speaker 1: nothing is standing in your way anymore because I'm out. Like, yes,
Speaker 1: I was just thinking the same thing, I'm out the
Speaker 1: way he said I'm out. But now the product you
Speaker 1: were right, you said at the beginning of the episode,
Speaker 1: You're proud of Dean, and it's like, Danielle, you said
Speaker 1: it too. It's like it's true, like he did ultimately
Speaker 1: stand up for himself. Yeah. Yeah, And I feel like
Speaker 1: the last few episodes, I've just been like, God, Dean
Speaker 1: like and and Rory like Rory, just like, why are
Speaker 1: you doing this to Dean? And Dean, why are you
Speaker 1: sticking up with it? And it kind of gave me
Speaker 1: really good closure in this episode, like Dean knew all along,
Speaker 1: but he was trying, kept trying, kept trying, and then
Speaker 1: he it's just finally like I'm out, and it just
Speaker 1: made everything makes sense to me. You know, like all
Speaker 1: the last few episodes, we see how patient he was,
Speaker 1: We see how steadfast he was even in the face
Speaker 1: of all of that, giving her the benefit of the
Speaker 1: doubt every single time, in the face of of of
Speaker 1: evidence that it was obviously not him, that you know,
Speaker 1: he was not the object of her desire. And I
Speaker 1: think now we're in a situation with with Jess and Rory,
Speaker 1: we're here, these two kids are stuck together, and it's
Speaker 1: I just know it's not gonna last because I don't
Speaker 1: know if if Jess can survive something that requires the
Speaker 1: kind of transparency that Dean was demanding of her and
Speaker 1: what In other words, I don't think Jess is capable
Speaker 1: of having a really mutually transparent and beneficial and open
Speaker 1: communication type of a relationship. He can't have an adult
Speaker 1: relationship he wants, He likes that drama. So how is
Speaker 1: he going to function with her? How she? I mean,
Speaker 1: first of all, now she's got guilt and baggage because
Speaker 1: she did a good dude wrong okay, and got dumped.
Speaker 1: So she's gonna have to suffer that humiliation so that
Speaker 1: she might have to delay a relationship with Jess because
Speaker 1: you don't want to, you know, get out of the
Speaker 1: frying pan and get it jump into the fire, right
Speaker 1: or or jumping from the fire into the frying pan, right.
Speaker 1: And that's basically what this is. This relationship has no chance,
Speaker 1: no chance of being successful. Um in the short term,
Speaker 1: just has no chance because of how the guilt they
Speaker 1: both now must feel. And they're gonna have to work
Speaker 1: it out, so they're not gonna be able to express
Speaker 1: any real purity of feeling or thought. It's just gonna
Speaker 1: be fraught with Dean. Dean Dean breakup, breakup. We're less
Speaker 1: than or less than, so the guilt is going to
Speaker 1: get him. I think. I don't know, but I just
Speaker 1: kind of have a feeling. So they're kind of doomed.
Speaker 1: They're doomed lovers, right, they take on tragic proportion. I
Speaker 1: just agree obviously, just love them talk, Just let them
Speaker 1: talk because we can't really I don't know what happens,
Speaker 1: but I have I have some hope for Jess. I
Speaker 1: think he's a good person and I feel like he's
Speaker 1: going to do everything he can to make this work.
Speaker 1: M I will say that I think Dean is the
Speaker 1: most perfect first boyfriend a girl could ever have. Though
Speaker 1: like he that's like boyfriend goals, especially like a first boyfriend.
Speaker 1: For sure. I like you, and the fact that the
Speaker 1: guy is actually openly telling you how much he loves
Speaker 1: you is even one. It's also super important. We glossed
Speaker 1: over it a little bit. But he talks about how
Speaker 1: when they're doing the crank calling, and she says, I
Speaker 1: crank called you. Yeah, you just tell me, you know,
Speaker 1: why don't you say something? Well, I liked you, and
Speaker 1: he's like, well, I liked you, and he went along
Speaker 1: with like everything Laura Lee and Rory did, like he
Speaker 1: was always game for everything. And I think we're going
Speaker 1: to see that shift because like just don't really care
Speaker 1: about like the town, you know, so you know it's
Speaker 1: very different. Yeah, yeah, Like Dean definitely appeased like whatever
Speaker 1: Laurel and Rory's wishes were. And now Jess is kind
Speaker 1: of more like a rebel right and the town loves Dean,
Speaker 1: and we know the town doesn't love Jess, but they
Speaker 1: do love Rory. So it's going to be interesting to
Speaker 1: see how that all goes. Well, you gotta have that
Speaker 1: character to see, you know, potentially derail Rory from her path, right,
Speaker 1: So that tension is important and really really really important
Speaker 1: because we don't know what, you know, decision she's gonna make,
Speaker 1: because she's gonna shine Harvard on what's she gonna do?
Speaker 1: You know, she's going to drop out? What is she
Speaker 1: gonna Is she gonna do what Laurela? I think what
Speaker 1: they're trying to get people to think is, oh god,
Speaker 1: she's going to get pregnant just like her mother did,
Speaker 1: and it's going to derail her entire life. And then
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to see Emily and Richard react and
Speaker 1: Luke react to that, and Laurel I react to that. Right,
Speaker 1: So I think that's where it was kind of headed. Um.
Speaker 1: It would have been interesting to see if that had
Speaker 1: played out, right, boy, wow, maybe maybe they were thinking
Speaker 1: that when they offer jes a seven year deal or
Speaker 1: Milo a seven year deal, like, hey, guess what these
Speaker 1: are our plans. You're you're gonna get it pregnant and
Speaker 1: this is going to turn into a whole thing. And
Speaker 1: they just said there, I'm gonna take a wild guess.
Speaker 1: But our rapid fires always ask who's the daddy? Assuming
Speaker 1: that happens. Well, well, it's like a load of question,
Speaker 1: you mean, with with with Jess and Rory. Well, so
Speaker 1: Danielle has no idea. Why we ask who's the daddy? Oh,
Speaker 1: you don't know. I'm assuming somebody gets pregnant. We don't
Speaker 1: know who the daddy is. Well, can I say when?
Speaker 1: Can I say? Well, I can't say anything to Danielle,
Speaker 1: don't I don't think so? All right, I'll dummy up
Speaker 1: over here. Yeah, let her, let it, let her wonder.
Speaker 1: We get there. We'll get there in a long time.
Speaker 1: Long road, guys, it's a long road. You know. What
Speaker 1: I did want to talk about those is how iconic
Speaker 1: for Jess and Rory the bridge is because they're right
Speaker 1: back in the same spot from a tisket a tasket
Speaker 1: where we first sort of like we knew she liked
Speaker 1: him before a tisket a tasket and that he liked her,
Speaker 1: but that was the first real moment where they were
Speaker 1: really connected. It's a bridge over troubled waters, isn't it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And it's the same bridge you push that kid into
Speaker 1: the same Jeff, Jess got thrown off that bridge. Do
Speaker 1: you know when you do the Warner Brothers tour in
Speaker 1: Burbank and they passed by that, they're like, and that's
Speaker 1: the bridge that Luke through Jesse, Like it's literally yeah,
Speaker 1: they're like if you watched Gilmore Girls, you know that.
Speaker 1: And everyone's like, oh my god, sometime soon we do
Speaker 1: all have to go on that tour. Yeah, we're going
Speaker 1: to do a podcast from that tour, right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we gotta do it. Do it before I go away,
Speaker 1: I know, But when do you leave? I don't know
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Yeah, that's not gonna it's not
Speaker 1: gonna happen. No, No, we'll get in. I think we'll
Speaker 1: be able to get it in. Look, we just called James.
Speaker 1: He makes it happen in a twenty four hours. The
Speaker 1: guy's amazing. You know what is Uh, you're up in Tohoe,
Speaker 1: deal with squirrels. Look at she can't do got squirrels living.
Speaker 1: So you know what I think about Gilmore Girls. That
Speaker 1: is consistent almost every episode that the um what would
Speaker 1: you call it? The I always say, like the crescendo,
Speaker 1: the the biggest moment of the episode, which I would
Speaker 1: consider sort of the fight and then the scene between
Speaker 1: Jess and Rory and he, you know, she says we're
Speaker 1: over and he says, I gotta go do something. You
Speaker 1: always would think the episode would end like it does
Speaker 1: like on other shows where you get to that sort
Speaker 1: of moment, Gilmore Girls always comes back with just like
Speaker 1: a little bit more where we see Kerk running around,
Speaker 1: you know, he's running the Rocky themes going and Rory
Speaker 1: comes in crying to Laura like like there's always like
Speaker 1: it gives us just a little bit more than you
Speaker 1: expect and I think that's one of the things that
Speaker 1: I love. And you're like, like, the best kind of
Speaker 1: laughter is the kind when you're feeling, you know something right,
Speaker 1: you're feeling vulnerable, like laughing and crying at the same time,
Speaker 1: and saying that episode made me cry. It made me
Speaker 1: laugh more than anything. Um, but that final image of
Speaker 1: Kirk but the Rocky so good? Did you see Kirk
Speaker 1: get down on his back and like like he was
Speaker 1: so happy that he got down like a dog and
Speaker 1: started scratching his own back on the floor. Oh god,
Speaker 1: that was I'm know, so good? Oh my god. I
Speaker 1: used to have a teammate when I played Pro Bowl
Speaker 1: who listened to the Rocky theme song every time, like
Speaker 1: on repeat before he would pitch my god, I could
Speaker 1: see it. He was like our Kirk. He was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I was gonna say, I understand why
Speaker 1: when people watch it on Netflix they roll right into
Speaker 1: the next one because of the way the show is done.
Speaker 1: You're you're like an addict where you're like, I just
Speaker 1: want more, you know, so hard for me to stop
Speaker 1: every week and I've watched this series like five times
Speaker 1: every week. I like, but one what happens if I
Speaker 1: jump ahead, like what happened I had that happened last
Speaker 1: night because you immediate, or like I need to know
Speaker 1: what's next, you know what? You know what? You know,
Speaker 1: what I found myself doing on this episode is stopping it,
Speaker 1: going back and listening to the jokes again. So I
Speaker 1: wanted to get them again and again and again. Did
Speaker 1: I hear that right? Because it sounded really funny the
Speaker 1: way they do the lines. It's like half the best
Speaker 1: lines are almost throwaway lines. Wait what, I watched the
Speaker 1: Jess and Rory scene at least three times, like it finished,
Speaker 1: Rewe finished, Rewe, Like I had to see that so
Speaker 1: many times. You know. This episode was also really I
Speaker 1: think the foundation from mysel right or Mazel, because it's
Speaker 1: so that period and well, I mean, I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's dead on the period, but god, she does
Speaker 1: that period. It really does. Because that's what I think.
Speaker 1: There's some truth to what you're saying, yeah, because it's
Speaker 1: like all the jokey jokes. You know, her dad was
Speaker 1: the stand up comedian. She grew up with all these
Speaker 1: brilliant comedians in her house. He was friends with one
Speaker 1: of the great comedians. And this period so it's just
Speaker 1: sort of reimagining her childhood somehow. I don't know if
Speaker 1: we've ever mentioned bun Heads. Oh, I love that. Bun
Speaker 1: Heads was an amazing show, such a bummer. So basically
Speaker 1: there was Gilmore Girls and then Amy Sherman. Palladino did
Speaker 1: bun Heads before she did Mrs mays All, and she
Speaker 1: used a ton of people. She uses Emily Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't remember. Yeah, yeah, but what is Emily's real name?
Speaker 1: Why is that out of my head? Kelly Bishop? You
Speaker 1: Kelly Bishop was like the lead basically with Sutton Foster.
Speaker 1: It's so good and I don't know why it didn't work,
Speaker 1: like I think it was one season. Maybe there was. Yeah, No, sorry,
Speaker 1: you're right, it was one season. It was so good.
Speaker 1: Some things just don't work, you know. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: love to. I mean, one of the things I always
Speaker 1: say is when we finished Gilmore Girls, we need to
Speaker 1: go right into bun Heads and do this with butt
Speaker 1: Meds because it was it was such a missed you
Speaker 1: know what it is? You know what I think it
Speaker 1: is a lot of the times is um if if
Speaker 1: they don't put the money behind the marketing and the
Speaker 1: push for a particular show, I mean, they can make
Speaker 1: anything look great if they just put the money into
Speaker 1: it and and the time and and the really talented
Speaker 1: people at the studio behind it. So here the assets here,
Speaker 1: the people go, push push push push. There's so many
Speaker 1: things they could have done to promote that show that
Speaker 1: I'm sure they didn't. They didn't get the money, they
Speaker 1: didn't get the consideration. It was a It was on
Speaker 1: ABC Family before ABC Family was like free Form which
Speaker 1: it is now. It was called ABC Family, And I
Speaker 1: think it was like I just caught lost in the
Speaker 1: shuffle at think time when that Secret Life of the
Speaker 1: American it was Secret Life and then pretty Little Liars
Speaker 1: were like at its peak, So I think it just
Speaker 1: kind of was forgotten about in the midst of all
Speaker 1: Who's Who's Who's in the Secret Life of the American
Speaker 1: teenager Shaleene Woodley. You know, I was offered I was
Speaker 1: offered that show. Uh what we who remember? Yeah? Wasn't Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was about to say, Molly ring who the dad?
Speaker 1: The dad was kind of like was nobody. We were
Speaker 1: in talks with them for a while. I can see
Speaker 1: you on that show. I turned it down. We couldn't
Speaker 1: we couldn't make a deal. I wanted to do it,
Speaker 1: but I couldn't make a deal. Oh I could have
Speaker 1: seen that what a preferred unbun heads? Just what was
Speaker 1: everybody's favorite lines? I've given so many that I've already
Speaker 1: said it's you know, Paris had some great lines. She
Speaker 1: had the one where She's said though she was mocking
Speaker 1: Louise and Madeleine about yeah, my head's gonna float right
Speaker 1: off at the top of my head, you know. But
Speaker 1: but I think the line what the Shane line, who
Speaker 1: are you Bobby Brady? Get a life? I'm sorry that
Speaker 1: just do I look like a cobbler was a pretty
Speaker 1: solid one. My favorite was when Laurel I says to Luke,
Speaker 1: have you seen Suki or Jackson? And Luke says no,
Speaker 1: but have you tried the insane asylum where everyone in
Speaker 1: this room is supposed to be? Luke had the best
Speaker 1: lines in the whole thing. He did not. He did
Speaker 1: have the best lines. I mean, he had some good lines,
Speaker 1: but I think people had better lines. And I love
Speaker 1: I love the Michael, I love the Mica Winners, the
Speaker 1: the tailor Dozy Magid sdn't drunk lines because he had
Speaker 1: too much punch and he was all drunky and sleepy,
Speaker 1: and he says, pull it going on. It was here,
Speaker 1: you know, I just love that guy. One more thing.
Speaker 1: Um for those that are the clown pillow trackers, I
Speaker 1: was way too fixated on that woman's stirring. All right,
Speaker 1: hang on, I have my notes that I need to share.
Speaker 1: You guys all have to go back and watch that
Speaker 1: woman stir and start pleasing. Okay, here we go, ready
Speaker 1: called open number one. We've got five things to go
Speaker 1: through here. Just here we go. Pay attention with you
Speaker 1: since we've been talking about the background actors. Uh watched
Speaker 1: the red haired woman in the gray coat. She sits
Speaker 1: there stirring, stirring, stirring through the whole scene and never
Speaker 1: takes a bite. It was really bad. Okay. Clown pillow
Speaker 1: appearance ready top half of the clown pillow at a
Speaker 1: minute marker nine and it's in forty seven seconds. Number
Speaker 1: three inconsistenty Luke inconsistency uson for me to say, Luke
Speaker 1: and Laurel I are sitting on the bleachers just steps
Speaker 1: from the dance floor while he is fixing her shoes.
Speaker 1: So why don't they see Dean Rory confrontation and break up.
Speaker 1: Oh right, Um, okay, she went somewhere. Yes, she went
Speaker 1: somewhere after Luke fixed her shoe. Yeah, I don't remember where,
Speaker 1: but she runs out and that's why because remember she
Speaker 1: says she had to go somewhere, and that's why Dean
Speaker 1: had to take over. So she has to get the
Speaker 1: shoe fixed and then she was gonna go. Fine, No,
Speaker 1: where does she go? It is inconsistent though. I don't
Speaker 1: know if she was sitting right there, but she I
Speaker 1: don't think she was in. No, she had gone out.
Speaker 1: That's why when she comes back, she's like, what happened? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. Number four. At the forty one minute
Speaker 1: fifty eight second mark, after Kirk has declared the winner,
Speaker 1: when laurel I runs onto the dance floor and asked
Speaker 1: Miss Patty where Rory is, you can see Rory already
Speaker 1: walking up behind Laureli to the left of the referees,
Speaker 1: even though Miss Patty says she doesn't know where she is.
Speaker 1: When they cut back to laurel I, Rory is gone. Uh.
Speaker 1: Then reappears on the right side of the referees as
Speaker 1: laurel I walks up to her. So, wait, we didn't
Speaker 1: we should have mentioned roller skating referee. Yes, yes, so
Speaker 1: that's number four. Number five music. The band at the
Speaker 1: dance marathon was an actual swing band called the Swinging
Speaker 1: Swinging Deacons. The music played during the marathon includes sing
Speaker 1: Sing Sing by Benny Goodman and the Glenn Miller standbys
Speaker 1: in the mood and a string of pearls. Like it
Speaker 1: wasn't the medic tent, but it was the same area
Speaker 1: with the sandwiches, and like trumpet player was like laying down,
Speaker 1: Good God, what'd you say? What do you say? What's
Speaker 1: you say? The trumpet player was like laying down and
Speaker 1: he had like the trumpet on his chest and his
Speaker 1: hands out in the air. I miss that, you know.

Speaker 1: I have a problem. Laurel I says, it's five thirty
Speaker 1: in the morning. How can you already have a problem? Yeah,
Speaker 1: And she says, Suki says, because I'm a multitasker. Um,
Speaker 1: just you know, I would say fifty of these lines
