Happy Birthday, Kel

heck is that? And this little lady comes in holding a ginormous bouquet of balloons, like the most beautiful balloons I've ever seen, and I thought, oh no, I think those are for somebody else. That's Kelly. Yeah. Then I saw the heavy rid to Kelly, and I put you know two and two together. What did you get? You got a birthday surprise, So in honor of your birthday, I got some goodness too, which I'm very excited about.

So this showed up and my kids got the door and my son Liam comes in and he goes, um, I feel bad. We got somebody's birthday cookie cake and it's delivered here by mistake. And I said, oh no, why and he said, because it's his happy birthday. Kelly's For a moment, I was like, wait, show me and show me it is there a receipt? I go, oh my god, I got delivered the wrong address. Stop the person. And then I go, oh my gosh, no, it's does it's this episode. Look at that, Kelly. That's so cute, Amy,

sugar man. I can't believe you didn't a tell us it was coming and be I'm super mad at you because I'm totally going to eat this tonight on my ambience. I can't tell you it's a prize party, it's a surprise. It's a surprise party. Jen. This is one thing I don't even know about you. Do you like surprise parties or not? Okay? Who likes a surprise party? Some people like surprises? Okay, so you and I are the same.

We hate surprises. I couldn't remember that one thing. I don't think I've ever asked you that are you birthday? People like, are you guys like it's my birthday? Nope? No, not not these days. Maybe back and when I was turning eighteen? Yeah, same same, Wait, sorry did you turn eighteen? While working on Beverly Hills nine O two one. Oh do Jen? Yeah? We both did? Wait? Did too? Oh my god? Do you guys remember it? I'm sure you probably do, don't you. I totally remember my eighteenth birthday.

May I just give a few details for one twick second? Please? Wait? Am I can I eat this yet? But Jen, you're not here to put your left pinkie and smirit left or right through? Your name? Is that thing? That's the thing in my family? Oh that's cute. May I do it for you? No? I want a picture of the cake. No, nope, nope, nope, I gotta take a picture of the cake. Um. Sorry, putting it right here? Put out your Instagram that'd be cute. Okay.

So my eighteenth birthday party was at Bar one, which was it's no longer there was on Sunset and um and my parents threw it for me and for some reason. I don't know if you were out of town, but I don't think you were there, which makes no sense in my world. There were no there were no girls from the show there, Like, I don't think Shannon was there. I don't. Yeah, I don't think God was there anyway, Bryan, Jason and Luke. I know we're there for sure, and

I have these obviously eighteen not drinking. But it was at a club called shutdown, called Bar One. But I have these crazy insane pictures with the boys, and I have way too much like a self tanner on because I was super dark and a white dress. But you can tell in the photos I'm living my best life surrounded by like Jason and Luke and not even about Brian.

This party I wasn't even like about Brian. I was like, by Jason and Luke are like flocking me on either side, and I was so excited and then um, and then Luke kissed me on my lips for my eighteenth birthday, just like a but I could have died and gone to heaven on happy And it was a in a limo afterwards with all my girls, like my girlfriend's, my not non nine girlfriends around and they were just like, Luke Perry just kissed you. I was like, it was

just a peck, but whatever, yes, I'll take it. That isn't a good party. I remember Bar One, Oh my god, bar One, which ended up then being like a sushi restaurant. It's like Dohenian sunset. Basically, I was gonna say, isn't it kind of across from Soho House? Where Soho houses? Now You're right exactly across. Oh my gosh, I wish I had been there. But yeah, we got the same present. Eighteenth birthday, you got to kiss Lucan, so did I. I feel like your kiss was a little better than mine.

I'm just saying, uh, you know what, the kiss that I thought was the cutest in this whole episode though, really really sweet kiss and almost to me sort of like foreshadowing. Do you know what I'm talking about? What was the cutest kiss in this episode? Cutest kiss in the episode? I was just focused the whole episode on how much spray they put on her hairline when she was supposed to be sweating from diet pill. Sorry keep going.

Brandon kissing Kelly on the but it was a little bit more intimate and he said happy birthday, sweetie, and I just thought, oh, I think I love you and I think I love them together. Yeah, I got a little got a little thing too. It was really cute because he's just a little hansy. He's super handsy in

the best way. Yeah, like, you know, like whenever he has to hug or kiss or something he like goes for like that the touch of Brendan Brandon, Like it's just a little much, So he's probably super excited to kiss. Jim's not a little much, not a little much for us, not a little much over here? Is he kind of a physical guy? Like do you guys like is he a hugger? Is he like a toucher? Like hard? Sorry? Whoa, whoa? That was aggressive. So he's very strong. He's a very

strong man. And when he goes to shake your hand, I always get nervous. Do you get nervous when he's going in to shake somebody's hand when we're meeting somebody, because I know he's gonna it's that grip, But he isn't mean to. It's just he's strong. Yeah, he's strong, So that's what I mean. When he does everything, it's strong. And he's got big, like beefy hands too, Like they're big. They're like they're not you know, like they're not scrawny

little hands, their manly hands. This is true. Yeah, he has a manly physicality. Yeah, Like when he hugs you, Amy, it's it's a hard hug. Right, I hugged him. I just don't I don't remember it, and I hope I hug him again soon so that I can think next time. Yeah, he's just he gives it all all he's got. Yeah. Oh, actually I need to text him, oh to come on our show. You should. Well, I'm going to text him to invite him and the family to the I Heart

Do you think best friends since the beginning of time? Well, let's get into it. You guys, tell me talk about it. What is your thought after rewatching this episode? Both, let's let's dive in season three episode, Perfectly Perfect, aired March nine. Synopsis,

Happy eighteenth birthday Kelly Taylor. With the possible sale of her house, Kelly gives her mother and prospective buyers a hard time. David and Donna planned to throw Kelly a surprise eighteenth birthday party at the peach Bit, but things take an unexpected turn when Kelly collapses due to an overdose of diet pills. Meanwhile, Steve badgers Brandon into joining him on a dating game show where Steve wins a date. Was The Less Blundy Enter Jennifer Grant directed by Bethany Rooney,

written by Jillian Horvath. I didn't remember that Jennifer Grant showed up this really I didn't either, felt later to me very exciting. Everybody knows that that Jennifer Grant is the daughter of Carrie Grant, Carry Grant Grant and Diane Cannon Diane Kea. She looks just like her mom. She does. She looks just like her mom. Very cute. She is so cute. She is amazing and super kind in the best smile Jennifer Grant. I haven't talked to her in years. I would love to see her again. Can we get

her on the show exactly the same. You're adorable, Yeah, she was always so. Did you know she was like legendary daughter when she came? Yeah? I did not. I knew. I knew Diane Cannon because she and my dad were friends, but I didn't know the carry grandpart until Jennifer told me. I had no idea, which obviously does make sense grand Cross name, but I didn't get it. Do you remember what you knew about her when she showed up? I just remember she was the daughter of the of those

two people. That's how I knew. Yeah, I wonder if she auditioned. We should ask her that questions we should ask her We I have another another co star question. I guess our question there. Okay, the girl that is the daughter of the prospective buyer, this in your closet that you chuck things at. She's somebody. She went on to be a big star like Rebecca Hurst. And she's on General Hospital. Oh that's how I know her, of course,

And she does want to come on. I tried to get her on today, but she's doing a bunch of work on General Hospital. So we are going to have her on, but it'll just be a couple of weeks from now when it slows down at General Hospital because that scene we have to retreat. She was on something else? Was she not a state? Was she on not landing with Brad Pitt? Oh my god, Brad Pitt was, Yeah, he was. Let me keep talking, keep giving your spots on this episode while I find out. I have a

question for you about your hair. I feel obviously you are the O G natural blonde, like I am a diet blonde. She is not a diet blonde. But I feel like your hair it was a little different color this episode, lighter, darker, It had almost a little bit of a warmth to it. Did you feel that way? Maybe it's the diet pills. I only noticed it because even when your hair is wet, it's still blonde, which everyone's hair gets darker when sweat, and you're like the

only person whose hair stays blonde. But when your hair was wet from the diet hills and you were sweating and doing the Stepmaster, oh like those stair Master, like a little warmth. Choice. So I didn't know if you put a tone or something on it. I don't I don't remember, but I was cracking up at that stair stepper thing and and that angle that they shot her at. Oh boy, what why was the camera so low like that?

I mean you looked great, but the scrunchy socks. I mean you had really good form on that StairMaster, StairMaster, stepmaster? What was that one called? I think that was the O G StairMaster that was before Yeah, it was called a stepper stepper? Was stepper? Do you feel like that came before or after your workout video? So do you think you? And I think that this might have been around the same time that my my exercise video came out. You were so sweaty. That was really sweaty. She was

working hard, you guys. She wanted to be perfect, per perfectly perfect for her eighteenth birthday, which is not about you know what. Wait, we should do something, you guys listeners. You should uh contact us a k Amy who reads every single comment um and let us know how many times you think they said everyone says perfect in this episode? No coincidence, I'm sure did you do you have account? Did you do account? You just thought of it. We can't see any knots landing for Rebecca Herbs, but we

do see General hospital. Uh, okay, um ps um. They shouldn't have written banana in because fact, banana is the Snickers of the fruit world. So no, it's very sugary. I didn't want something to eat when you're trying to diet. Yeah, so here I have a list of questions. I feel like this whole thing is like the most Seus's fault from the last episode member when they went to the spot and she made Kelly it's all her fault. This whole thing is her fault. Yeah, no, I mean, let's

talk about it. The trajectory of the eating disorder sort of did come from that trip to Santa Barbara to Monicito because of that mssuse and you maybe we're sort of grappling with some things and then that is where it began. Nip didn't help, that is correct. Nobody helps, even Jackie. I mean even in the kitchen with the banana scene, when Kelly says something like I shouldn't be eating anyway. Don't you think a mom would pick up on that, Like I know I would. I'd be like, yes,

you should, you should be eating. You need to have a meal before you go to school or else. Your brain isn't gonna work. I give her a whole lecture about it and how she needs But I think Jackie didn't have to say anything. Clearly, they all knew Kelly was going through stuff, right, you were emotionally really imploding, Like Jackie acknowledges it where you're like she sa, every time you talk to me, you get into a fight or we get into an argument. That is an indication

that something's going on. I think that's just teenage inks too, like they're all they all are going through something, but they just arety focusing on Kelly's series. It was very minuscule in the episodes leading up to this, and then in this episode it really became an explosion. But I do think with eating it, people hide them. Yeah, she wasn't hiding it very because she was always taking the diet pills out in front of people, Lose weight fast pills,

and she had them like in the kitchen cupboard. Like that was random too. I thought, why is she putting them right there? But I appreciated that because it's not like I feel like she didn't know she was doing something bad. Yeah, she didn't know something she bought could be so dangerous. Dylan calls you out on it and you lie. You said you were following the directions and you definitely were not. Yeah, towards the end, she was

popping them like tex So. But he could have helped the cause there too, because what I was looking for when he said in that scene that she was why are you taking like something like I think you're beautiful, I love your body like that considered better. I totally feel that. I didn't think that in the moment, But now that you say that, yeah, he's still morning, it's too it's too early for him to no true. But I just wish they had written that in like something.

Do you think it would have She's just moody and I wouldn't have worked, but it would have made her feel good for a second. I think when anyone tells you they're obviously not happy with their body, you want to reassure them, give them some some reassurance of positivity, gives them something hopeful. Interestingly, though, this is something I learned friend of mine was antorexic. You're not supposed to

tell them they look good because it reinforces what they're doing. Yeah, if you say anything about their parents, it's translated to them in their head. As a message that is negative. Keep doing what I'm doing. I agree, but there's a different way to handle it, like just some resurance that I love you, I know you want to be healthy. I want to support you. Like it just it didn't feel enough for me in that scene. That's all I think you're read that everyone knew something wasn't right and

they kept glossing over it. Yeah, I think that's. Yeah, it's just weird because like, this isn't the first time that somebody's been anorexic or believe it or had an eating disorder like this isn't we weren't inventing the wheel like this is. It's been going on for years and years like and then that's why it also shocked me that Jackie didn't know. It's because she was in the modeling world and all that she was under all those pressures as a model, Like I would think she would

be more conscious of it. So that makes me ask for the baby to make it. I thought, that's why you like, she's handling the baby, sobe thinking, Yeah, do you think nine O two one oh handled eating disorders well? Or do you think they did it a disservice? Well?

If this is it. Then they did it a disservice because if this storyline doesn't go anywhere or I don't know what happens next, but I would think it would deserve a little bit more than just that end scene with the doctor and Kelly in the bed, for sure. But my dad loved doing topics that were topical amongst teenagers, and he had done an Emmy Award winning movie um TV movie called Best Little Girl in the World with Jennifer Jason Lee that was all about eating disorder before this.

So yeah, I think I think we're going somewhere with it, but they could have handled it better this episode. See, I have this weird feeling this was the end of it. But but we'll see because I can't remember, because I think we wrapped the gambling issue up with a little pink ball, you know, real quick, so we'll have to see. I can't totally remember. I got sidetracked by remembering Jennifer Grant storyline because weirdly, in my memory she dated Brandon,

so it was super weird to me. I'm completely thrown off, but I thought she was going to pick Brandon. Fully, I'm on board with you. Once she picks Steve. I remember now a little of what's coming with Steve. I never thought it was Brandon for some reason. It was like the first girl he got. That is right, and I'm so happy Steve girlfriend. Yeah, I was relieved, and she genuinely likes him, So I think this sort of

episode was a real moment for Steve. We see Steve really the most thoughtful with Kelly, the most concerned that she's okay, and then decides to tell her about the surprise party because he was so concerned that she was sort of so upset everyone's talking about me. Did you think he did the right thing by by by ruining and quotes the surprise party? Yeah, I do. I feel like I would have wanted to know. Yeah, especially she's all distraught already. He's trying to like ease her, you know,

anxiety in general. Yeah, I felt the same way. I felt like, if somebody doesn't tell her why they're talking about her and why everyone's being so weird, she's really going to lose it. Yeah, And he's already like Schizzo from the drugs and like nervous and stressed and uptight. She's now she's paranoid to like it's all part of it. Yeah. I thought they really have turned Steve around, especially in this episode. So then he likes the game show, he

gets the girl. Wait, wait, before he gets the girl, how cute was he when he said zucchini? Z cute? They said what's your favorite vegetable? And he goes zucchini and he just gives that ship eating grin of his adorable And then he gets the girl, which we've seen him time and time again not get the girl. And then he really says, I can't go out with you, like I have to go to my best friend's birthday. I don't know why he didn't just bring her. That

was weird, but I guess the cameras whatever. How uncomfortable were you during the game show though, when nobody asked the middle guy anything and nobody picked him, was so uncomfortable. I was like, this is that that? Poor Bye? I also had a full moment of is Ryan's Seacrest hosting this because you know, Ryan comes on like okay, so I fully thought I was like, oh no, I wonder if Ryan would have done like our guest this week because he's the host. And then I was like, oh no,

it's a different game show. I think that comes like five years later. So I was all my sense of time nine O two one oh time was really thrown off on this episode because I was, like Jennifer Grant just seemed because I think, I don't want to ruin it whatever. I think they wanted to make a reality dating game called love at First Sight first sight love is blind. See, we were at our time, out of its time. So okay, so back to Steve. Let's keep

talking about Steve here. So Steve your favorite topic, go ahead. I do love him iron but I also did really love Steve in this episode because I thought he was so sweet and really seemed to be the one that was understanding of what was happening, figures out how to get to the party, rushes to the hospital. I actually could have enjoyed a little bit more of a moment

between the two of them in the hospital. Yeah that felt rushed too, because he worked so hard to get there and here, you're right, Yeah, so I thought, I just thought, Okay, Steve's having a real moment. Okay, so let's we'll kind of go around out of order. So what did you think of the whole Love at First Sight bit? Game. I just really was uncomfortable but that

the middle guy didn't get any love. And then I was also uncomfortable when um Brandon answers that question about how he wishes all the girls looked like Celeste, Like, if you could take the best parts of each girl, what's a terrible question to ask them, those poor girls, to be honest? It board me a little bit, you know, Well, I just wanted to get to the Kelly stuff. I was trying to figure out invested in that whole storyline. Yeah, where they where did did they shoot that game show?

And I was trying to look at the pick the posters on the wall. It was clearly like a studio, so that must have the whole chairs there and everything. I didn't. I didn't mind it. I love this whole episode, every part of it. Okay, so let's talk about Let's talk about Kelly. Who smokes when they when the which is smoking a cigarette while they're walking through It was kind that he was carrying around an ash tray though, Yeah, I guess so what how considerate of him? That's crazy?

That's crazy. Number two, nobody rings a doorbell for an open house. That's the whole ideas it's open. Oh, you're right. And then but and usually the homeowners aren't there when there's an open house. Totally, that's like part of it because you're gonna go in and judge their house. Yeah. And also like you could dirty it up like Kelly did with the potato salad. And I was thinking, Oh my god, she just put that stinky potato salad in the garbage disposal in the sink. It's gonna smell the

kitchen up. Nobody's gonna want this house. The potato salad situation. I was watching it on my phone and I was like, what is she eat hanging At first, I was like trying to like zoom in, um, how many times do you have to eat? Why potato salad? Did they Okay? I have a question. Do you think or do you think hypothetically that they might have asked you like, hey, what do you want and we'll put it in there because you and you said potato salad. I don't know.

I don't know. I must have really been on a potato salad kick. I don't know this kind of they asked. They were like, well, anything you want to Maybe maybe they had like you can pick this egg salad or this potato. You know, everybody would pick the potato salad, and poor Kelly's mouth was getting potatoes. Then my question was why did you dump it? Why don't you just put the lid back on it and put it back

in the fridge. You didn't want to be tempted? Oh, and I thought you were being nice, like, oh, I've already eaten out of the container, so I have to throw it away so everyone else doesn't eat it. Got it for me if if my kid had a full episode like that in the bedroom with the Jackie needed to step in more than just be mad at you. It was like your daughter is screaming for help with that meltdown. Yeah, she says Kelly. She always says Kelly the same way, can you do it for us? Please? Sorry, Kelly,

it's a very specific way. She says, your name, was that right? Yeah? And then when she gets mad at you, it's exact same, but just louder. Not Jenny, What did you feel about your performance, because this episode was primarily

like Jenny Garth. I remember working with Bethany Rooney, the director, who I really liked um, and I remember Um just being more conscious of all the choices that I was making and and everything, and um, I think it came out pretty good, like it feels like there's an arc to it, and um, I don't know, I felt pretty

good about the performance. I guess so good good. That scene with David and your mom in the kitchen, I don't know, there's one line I'm forgetting what it is now that it's almost like you say it under your breath, like a throwaway line, and it was just so real. I was like, just so good, always good. Yeah, I thought as crazy as the bedroom scene was, I thought, wow, whoa, she nailed it. And then at the end with the bathroom, the melting down to the hospital, I mean I got

very emotional, like for some reason, I don't know. Yeah, I texted you guys, I was like, why am I bawling watching this? Like it really And I don't know if it was the I think it was probably your performance and maybe just the emotion of it. It was really whoa, it was, Oh I love it. That's hearts in a great way because it was so relatable as a woman, as a mom, as just a human like and you. It was always so ground at your performance, no matter what, and just it was. Yeah, it was

really great. Thanks guys, you're nice. Yes, we love you, Kelly Jarth. I like it when they were sorry, you know, when the guys were in the hallway and Steve is talking about trying to get Brandon to go on the show, and he's describing the girls that are going to be there, it was so growdy. Yeah, I felt like I felt like Kelly in that moment, like there's no such a thing as perfect you have you know, It's just it was so upsetting. It was gross. You just said grody.

By the way, I don't think I've ever even heard you say that word. It was growdy to the max. A little. I have a little bts to ask about. That means behind the scenes, so I'm not supposed to whisper. Pardon me, that means behind the scenes everybody. So okay, so go back to the whispering much better. Can you get a script like this, and specifically I'll ask Jenny on this one, because this was a you know, Jenny centric,

Kelly centric. Does someone talk to you or do you get this script and realize like, oh wow, like this is series and you said you met with the director, so like would you get a call like, hey, Jenny, this is a really intense episode for Kelly. Let's talk

about it. Tell me how that goes. Yeah, I would usually get a heads up from one of the producers or usually one of the you know, like Jessica or probably Jessica Klein would talk to me about what was coming and and so that I could have some lead up into it, because that that this storyline did have that gradual slow build into this episode. So I think I knew, definitely knew it was coming. And this this was the one where I had more work days than

anybody else. You know, when you get a scripted, your your characters in it more than anyone else, You're like, oh my god, I don't know be working so many hours more than Donna, you know, like it's like a lot. Yeah, so does it require more preparation? Because I would assume, like, look, I'm hoping that you guys will indulge me and we can recreate the scene in the in the bedroom when Kelly has her meltoun. But like, do you I mean,

obviously you have more words, but emotionally, how do you prepare? Well?

I think every actor is different, and I would say even every role is different, but in general, for me, I like to kind of give myself like a graph, an emotional journey kind of graph to sort of like make sure that there is a beginning, of middle and an end because and that it builds the right way, you know what I mean, Like so it's not just one level and so that it's is it a graph on paper, it's literally graph Like I will take a paper and no draw like that, like you know, break

each scene down like where it is emotionally. So it kind of because when you're shooting, you're shooting it out of sequence and of shooting things back to back, and it can get really confusing. So I like to go in a little bit more prepared. Wait, no way, okay, So like you have your graph, and it would be like going building, building, building up, maybe coming down, going back up, so that when you shoot the scene, you look at your graph and like you're like, okay, I'm

at an emotional high point here? Am I getting that? Right? Yeah? You want it? You can do too. I never expected that in my whole life. So you like me, though, I don't know if anybody else does that. I'm Tori. What do you do on the visual, I have to like write it out. Well, she she knows I don't

write notes, so she knows she does it internally. But Jimmy, that doesn't surprise me about you because you're so like that where you would be like, Okay, here's my emotional heartbeat going up this graph, so that you know, and then Tori, what would you do? Just oh my gosh, I don't even know. Remember when we get to Donna Martin graduates, I'll fill you in on all the behind the scenes. So, Amy, now that you learned. So that

was awesome. So that's a great acting lesson. So now next time we do an episode, you can have a journey, Amy, an emotional journey in a build so you can start with your whispers and by the end, well, and I shouldn't have revealed that I cried, probably till later. I almost like I gave my emotional You can in the middle, Yeah, you can go, you can get home, you can reach

your climax right in the middle. It doesn't matter. We'll keep going to my questions and then maybe we'll finish this episode with a reenactment of one more time to say it, one more time reenactment. It's just so excited about it. Okay, so let's talk a little bit about Brenda in this episode, because she's clearly sort of longing for her hair in this episode. Sorry, I know her hair is always on point. I didn't love it in

this one. Bangs were a little too short. They were like some of this in the first thing they were they were back and then tucked to the side, but like not tuched to the side. It was like down. I didn't know. I was intrigued by her longing for home in this episode, and also Mrs Walsh just buttering that bread for a good five straight minutes while she talked about Darla. Was it Darla hand? They had such a good relationship in that scene. I really liked it.

I felt like they were really mother and daughter for one of the very first times, because I never really got their connection really so far in the show, so like mother daughter. I always kind of thought that Brenda had was closer to Jim, so that that scene for me was really sweet. Wait, is Darling Hansen going to come? No, but a friend. What I'm remembering is that thinks about going home for college. She really thinks about going back to London. No, not London, Minnesota not yet, so I

thought that was interesting. I thought it was interesting that she didn't want to have the party at the house Mrs wall done. She could have right, but that she did show up early. It was kind of lame that they had at the peach Pit. I was so mad at that. I feel disappointed. I feel responsible. It was all on me, and I screamed let me down a thousand percent. That's why when I read the synopsis, I was like, peach Pit, Like I have a hundred high

school kids in their house eighteen. Well the bruisers were like, Okay, well we got to save money, so we're gonna do it at the peach Pit. Like everything at the peach But but that really makes me sad. And I'm really let down by Donny because it was Kelly, her best friend's eighteenth birthday. It should have been somewhere else. Oh yeah, that reminds me of the time my husband turned forty and I had it in a Mexican restaurant. He will never let me what's wrong with you. I'm not saying

what's wrong with it. It was Casa Vega. It was good Harris in passage and he was just I think it was underwhelming because it was forty. It was we went to we just went on a birthday trip for guy turning forty, and it was like a whole weekend traveling yacht excursion thing, and like he was like, gosh, okay, well then I'm a real asshole. Like I didn't think the peach pit was bad. I did think it was

interesting that Michael Cutlitz is suddenly Kelly's best friend. Kelly is going to be here in two minutes everybody, and then everyone collapsed. I was liked, be surprising to you. It's nine two one o. This is how they do it, because they hated these guys five minutes ago was making his move on Prince On Brenda Cutlins was really like, yeah, they gotta make it happen. They got to start. At least they started it now in anticipation to the prompt.

Good for them they started. They didn't just spring it on that right, right right right? Sorry, no, no, no, no, no, you're good. And then I did think that that it was Brenda at the end at the hospital was important. Yeah, that must have been so hard for Brenda, Like just going to the party in general, I just was a little unrealistic that she was there, Yeah, and that I don't know. It just felt like if I had been hurt the way she was hurt, I wouldn't have been

like at the party. But listen, if she didn't go, she couldn't have found you, and that would have been it for you. She could have found me in the bathroom in the perfect absolutely perfect, perfect perfectly perfectly perfect passed out. Yeah. Now, if I was the producer on the show, I gotta tell you, guys, I would have left it right on Kelly and left it like that would have been the end of the episode to be consider. Yeah. Right, so cliffhanger, I guess we weren't really cliffhangers. We were

we did cliffhangers. We did a cliffhanger with Dylan's dad blowing up in the car. But when you don't know what that would happen, you're so right, that is the perfect opportunity. Felt like an end of an episode, like, oh my gosh, then we come back and we see what happens, like it was disappointed they should have resulted with you. That's kind of true. That would have been

kind of juicy. Now, okay, can we talk about Jordan Bonner and Andrea because I love the very key ugly but doesn't it feel like we missed something like it jumped every dating period, like they get to know you. I think, I like, you literally went from meeting at that party to a couple of facts is to being fully together. But yet they like it's almost like they shot twenty scenes and they got cut. I thought the

same thing. Maybe they did. We should ask Gab. So weird, but it was so weird that his hand was on her arm, like rubbing her arm, and I was like, what why is he doing that? Like stop touching her? It wasn't let them kiss, They won't let them go. So they were being as affectionate as they could. Yeah, and he's in enough that he is at the hospital and that he's like Steve, buddy, there come this way, like he's in with the group. Right, he should have

stayed in. He should have stayed with the group. I really like his character other than his bad fashion shirt. I totally agree. But maybe he was going to but then he told us because Gab about Pregnan in real life, they stopped the storyline. Damn that baby, Yeah, it should have been his baby. Oh my god, that would have been so cool. Would I mean? I love Mark Espinoza. It's not that he was He's always been amazing, but

that would have been so good. It made sense. It was a little It does feel like I missed twenty scenes literally, like wait, how did But it was cute seeing Andrea snuggle with somebody like that. Yeah, I gotta say her green blazer was my favorite in the episode. What what you know? I'm not a Blazer fan, but her it's our favorite green and it was. I loved it. It was very smart looking, the sunflower dress. It was the best in that Yes, oh my god, that dress

is great. You should I wish you wish that dress that one, Okay, anyone out there, if you okay, if you have it, I was gonna go big. But yes, if you haven't, let us know. But if you know who made that dress. Sometimes people know who the designers are that we would like to know. Let us know. Um. I did love Brenda's even though I didn't like her hair in the scene in school, like the flowey like sleeves, yeah, sleeves. Yeah? Was that what she was wearing to the party. I'm

trying to remember what she wore at the party. She were all black to the party. H she was morning. But then Kelly survived and I was kidding. Cool, but I actually, yeah, I think the sunflower was better. I felt like that when when at the end of the show when Brenda's talking to her at the hospital bed and Kelly says to her, in fact, I didn't die, so you can't have Dylan back. I was like, oh, too soon. Yeah, why did you get that line? That's my favorite line? Wait, she was she's on through a lot.

Was it a joke? Yeah, she was joking. Okay, yeah, they're kind of playing right. Oh. I sort of think I glossed over that my tears. Oh girl, So here's my question. Too. Y was very flowy with the money for the party, but yet they're still in the house again. I don't understand. Very confusing. We haven't seen mel and he com back. He was only his contracts had seven out of twenty two episodes, so sorry, he's not in

this episode. He's coming back. He's coming back. Uh, let me see if there's anything else that I have to ask you guys. Oh, can I tell you one fashion thing real quick? Just because I didn't know? Okay, so you know how like one day goes on forever in this episode, like it literally like and I was so mad at that outfite on. But I have a silver clip, remember the clips, like the little clips. Oh, I forgot this the podcast, so I'll keep going. Um anyway, I that was my own and I didn't know I wore

it in the show, but I saw it. I was like, there she is. I still haven't. It's my favorite thing. I thought it was just my thing in real life, like it's a good luck thing. I don't know. I was trying to find it today and now I can't find it. Now I'm freaking out that it's gone. But it's so worn off that it's pink underneath and there's barely any silver left the right. It was some cheap I don't know, but here it is good luck and I'm really freaking out that it's gone. I was trying

to find it in this episode. Now it's gone the loost in my black hole of my house. You know, wait, one more question. You you make a comment that your mom's idea of a good birthday party is a cake shaped in the number with the number of the year, and then you do you bring a cake shaped like an eighteen because sometimes, I mean a lot of the times we turned into our parents and we don't mean to, and it's okay. So what I took from that I noticed. But what I took from it is that's family tradition

that her mom has done for her whole life. So it's like tradition, like me saying I want to take my left pinky and smear through Kelly's name on the cake, like my mom did that, and we open did that growing up. So I think it was that that was a loving thing. It was I would say, before we go, I have an important question for the both of you. Yea, how far do you like to go on the first date? Santa Barbara? The first answer yet so good? You go

up to San Francisco, don't you tour? That's lies, that's north, that's not fine. Now both of us haven't been our first date in so many years. It's who knows, different times now, who knows. I don't know what the rules are. Yeah, hello, you're this single lady. Yeah I got a guy. I'm just not married to him. But well where is he? Very confusing for me because what I do? Jen? Did you know this? Oh? Why keep oh, breaking it down

now she chooses to whisper. Okay, go on. What I like to do is date somebody in college and then I go back to them twenty years later. That's that's what happened. And pattern you've done it more than once. Oh yeah, I've done about six times. Wait him in college, your current boyfriend or just after college. Yeah, and the boyfriend boyfriend before this one I kissed in college, did not see for twenty years, and then dated for a year. So that's kind of my move. Yeah, I go back

to the ones that. Yeah, it's kind of brilliant because you weren't evolved enough to be ready for them then, but now it's a different story. So you could either go back to them now. And it's not right to be patient completely be patient because they back around to be patient because they typically get married, so you have to wait it out till they get divorced. But it does happen here inspired by the true life, and yeah, and it's the movie is called Dipping Back into the

well what we call it joke right now? No, it's totally it's completely serious and it's actually a thing. A lot of people that get divorced, what are you talking about this is real, h totally real, not being funny. A lot of people when they get divorced, date someone they knew in high school or college, and usually they like but like seek them out and see where they are and how to like reconnect on Facebook or like

whatever it is. But yeah, for me, I bumped into wanted a football game, like a cow college football game, and then this one. I think there was like a random text, yeah we hear more about this later, or like over drinks one night, thank you. This just happened. This just happened to me. Recently. There was a couple at a restaurant that we're eating and I was like, so I was with my friend Mandrew Patrick, and we were like trying to call it like first date. We couldn't.

So he asked them and they said, oh, we actually were each other's first in high school. Haven't seen each other in five years, and we happened to be in the same city and I saw her on Instagram that she was here and connected with her and now they're there and they they think it's going to work out. Yeah, something I didn't invent it. I didn't invent it. Well, let's pretend you did because you're a genius. My brother

got married to his high school sweetheart late late late. Yeah, I love it, but it does work, and I usually stick in one fraternity and sometimes too there's two fraternity. I love this so to bring it all back, you know, so happy for Brian and Sharna, they just had their baby. I'm happily married. But if it ever doesn't work out years later, the twenty years from now, Brian, I can always go back there. You go, that's right, Well you're

gonna have to wait twenty more years. Yeah, you can do it in your golden years, like, yeah, I'm are. We always talked about being in rocking chairs instead of so I'm kicking you to the curb and sticking Brian there. But we'll be together until like maybe like had a hundred for my hundredth birthday? Will you bring me a hundred cookie cake? And Brian austin green, yes, and a

huge pack of diapers for us. It does make it confusing to know how far you go on a first date, though, because you're like, is this a first date or is this a twentieth date? Because if you're like, you don't know, so you're just like, true, I guess we just do what we want. Wow, well that's something to think about people. Uh. And on that note, and on that note, next week's episode is Senior Pole. Whoa senior pole? Like a pole like boys get directions? Senior citizens home, taking it back

my hundredth birthday. On that note, I love you guys with wh
