Glee on the Rocks: 5x14 - "Blaine’s Gelmet & Other Crimes Against New York”
This week, we hit Glee’s big reset button as the show abandons Lima for New York — and immediately forgets how the big city works. In 5x14, "New New York," Rachel Berry gets chauffeured through Manhattan like she’s allergic to the subway, Kurt and Blaine enters their domestic sitcom era (complete with cursed pajamas and a SodaStream), and Artie learns that accessibility in NYC is a myth.
This episode we break down:
- 🛋️ Blaine’s fatal mistake: bringing home a couch from the street (never pick up fabric furniture)
- 💅 Rachel’s ongoing campaign to be truly insufferable
- 🎸 Elliot “Starchild” Gilbert, gone too soon sweet prince
- 🚇 Artie vs. the subway, round two (and somehow he wins with pepper spray??)
We also talk the Klaine divorce era, Darren and Adam Lambert’s glitter-rock detour, and why every Glee character should be sentenced to “straight to jail” for crimes against New York.
So join us for bedbugs, bad geography, and Blaine’s unholy Gelmet—because if Glee can survive this New York transition, so can we (do we survive? so they? we find out).

00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,320
Speaking of something that
should have been cringier than
2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:18,650
it was.
You're listening to Glee on the
3
00:00:18,650 --> 00:00:19,450
Rocks.
Hello.
4
00:00:19,450 --> 00:00:22,410
Welcome back to Glee on the
Rocks, a fandom on the rocks
5
00:00:22,410 --> 00:00:23,450
podcast.
I am Emily.
6
00:00:23,730 --> 00:00:25,330
I'm Mandy.
And I'm Allison.
7
00:00:25,890 --> 00:00:32,009
And this is season 5 episode 14
new New York or New New York.
8
00:00:32,810 --> 00:00:36,570
New New New York.
New new new new new new world
9
00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:40,480
order.
New New York, where there is no
10
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:42,480
comma, but put a comma wherever
you would like it.
11
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,880
The New Directions alumni are
adjusting to their new lives in
12
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,720
the Big Apple.
This premiered April first.
13
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,800
Not a joke, 2014.
Not a joke.
14
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,320
The joke was that we didn't get
to see the six months prior to
15
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:02,600
that.
Yeah, we've time jumped a little
16
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,280
bit, a little bit.
I said six months.
17
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,600
I don't even know how long it's
actually been, but like too many
18
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:08,640
months.
Does the.
19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,200
Show know.
No.
20
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,760
I don't think so.
It took however long it took for
21
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,240
Sam to grow his hair that long.
That's true.
22
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,000
So and for what?
And for and for what purpose?
23
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,040
For what reason?
Just to get the Justin Bieber
24
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,920
haircut again, like.
Yes, poor K.
25
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,080
This is our first episode
without the newbies.
26
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,760
RIP.
We we have said goodbye to them.
27
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,360
This entire episode takes place
in New York.
28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,080
We are out of Lima.
OH, into the Big Apple that
29
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,360
looks like New York 'cause I'm
pretty sure they filmed a lot of
30
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:43,840
it there.
Yeah.
31
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,960
Which is nice because, like,
it's hard to film on the back
32
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,560
lot to make it look like New
York.
33
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,400
It just doesn't.
It doesn't work.
34
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,880
But we open with our favorite
Rachel.
35
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,760
And our favorite Rachel
favorite?
36
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,840
Our favorite comma, Rachel
'cause this is not our favorite
37
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,440
version of Rachel.
Absolutely not.
38
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:12,160
Can I though?
Can I, can I jump back just just
39
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,760
smidgen because the recap guy
that that's what you missed on
40
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,480
Glee guy that's.
What you missed on Glee?
41
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:25,400
Made me holler in my house in
the recap, they're talking about
42
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,240
Will and Emma, like, Will's
gotta get a new job.
43
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,960
And I'm like, why are we talking
about Will Schuster?
44
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,680
And it says, yeah, 'cause he's
got a baby on the way.
45
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,120
And that immediately cuts to
Will saying, God, that's awful.
46
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,720
And the the snark I snorked was
incredible.
47
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,720
So thank you, Glee recap guy.
Yeah, he's, he's doing his best.
48
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,760
Incredible.
He's trying.
49
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:57,480
He's trying so hard.
So Rachel is talking to Sydney,
50
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,760
who is a character either I had
already wiped from my memory or
51
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,280
is new.
But he's one of the, well, they
52
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,280
call him like the producer.
He's not the only producer, but
53
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:13,360
he's a producer of Funny Girl
and allegedly they've taken
54
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,360
Funny Girl on the road.
I was confused by that.
55
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,520
And restaged the entire play
between the last episode and
56
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,600
this one.
Both of those things, no.
57
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,720
Would they have?
Why don't they be doing that?
58
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,800
Would they have gone to Chicago
for previews?
59
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,080
I don't think that's what they,
well, no, I mean they you would
60
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,480
have done an out of town tryout,
but that's not taking it on the
61
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,440
road.
That's, I mean, that's a tour.
62
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,040
That's a that would.
Be the That would be the first
63
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,560
national tour of the Broadway
production that.
64
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:47,040
Happened.
Yeah, it's.
65
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,080
After the run.
It's a different, it's a
66
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,520
different contract.
That's a different contract for
67
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,760
one that's sometimes a different
cast.
68
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,840
You don't.
You don't take it on tour before
69
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,280
you finish staging.
Like especially if they had to
70
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,800
restage the play.
You have to do that first before
71
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,720
you take it on tour.
Why would like sure, they can do
72
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,640
an out of town tryout, but
that's not that you'd be like in
73
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,320
Atlanta.
Not I don't understand.
74
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,240
I mean, like, again, if you
don't know what you're talking
75
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,200
about, ask someone Ryan Murphy
who's done a Broadway show like
76
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,280
they.
They they were just like, let's
77
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:25,960
do theater mad libs.
Yes.
78
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,720
Literally.
These words sound like they fit.
79
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:35,760
And in three months?
It really, really made it seem
80
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,400
just the way that it was
written, like Santana quit and
81
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,320
we had to restage the whole
show.
82
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,720
And I'm like, Santana was so
important that you had to
83
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,760
restage your entire show because
she wasn't there.
84
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,040
Wow, incredible.
It's like it's so unimportant to
85
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,320
the plot, right?
Like this is like a literally a
86
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,840
throwaway line for most people,
but it irritates the shit out of
87
00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:02,560
me one as it should, because job
Yeah, and like it.
88
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,240
It's so easy to get right.
Like could you just put a little
89
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,440
fucking work into it?
Like just you just don't have to
90
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,080
say it.
You don't have to put this line
91
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,720
in here if you don't know what
you're talking about.
92
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:17,720
You've built this entire
storyline about Rachel going to
93
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,360
Broadway like 5 minutes of
research.
94
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,160
Ask a producer.
I don't know.
95
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,240
You must know 1 Murphy.
Like allegedly you are one.
96
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,160
Like just do the work.
It doesn't take how much time.
97
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,840
That's his least favorite part
of the job, though, doing the
98
00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:36,520
work.
You're right, he's the ideas
99
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,480
man.
Well.
100
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaking of other people who
don't like to do the work,
101
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,400
Rachel.
Rachel Berry.
102
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,000
God, Rachel's.
Not too cool for school to take
103
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,040
the subway.
The episode opened and I was
104
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:52,080
like, oh God, Rachel Berry.
Insufferable.
105
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,240
Absolutely inapperable.
Yes, so she's been given a town
106
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,200
card, not a limo, as a thank you
for her being the big star.
107
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,920
And this is going to help her
get around town, I guess, which
108
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,280
is the slowest way to get around
town.
109
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,840
Absolutely.
But OK, Which cues her singing
110
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,920
downtown.
Cute song.
111
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,360
That's fine, and it bleeds into
a montage of Kurt coming out of
112
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,600
the subway at W 4th and
Washington Square, meeting up
113
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,320
with Lane.
With his with his regional blue
114
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,520
cart.
Yes, he got blue cart.
115
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,480
Not the Astoria Blue cart, but
the Washington 4th Blue Card.
116
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,320
Yes, getting coffees.
They meet up, Artie meets up
117
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,440
with Sam in the park, and then
they're all getting together
118
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,720
while Rachel pulls up in the
limo.
119
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,160
And they're getting together at
Washington Square Park, Yeah.
120
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,600
Yeah, I love that there's a shot
of Rachel like dog hanging out
121
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:47,320
of the window.
Oh.
122
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,360
My God, I wrote that down.
It's sticking her head out of
123
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,320
the window like a dog.
I also really I appreciate that
124
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,680
she wears a lot of like slouchy
beanies in this episode, which
125
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,120
would have all fallen off.
Flown right off.
126
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,240
Yeah, the entire episode.
But there is a shot where you
127
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,480
can see the traffic cop holding
back traffic so that they can
128
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,080
get the shot of her in the limo
flowing around the corner 'cause
129
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,040
otherwise it would just be
back-to-back traffic.
130
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,080
My notes are actually yelling
congestion pricing.
131
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,520
Fuck you, Rachel Berry.
Not in 2014.
132
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,720
Yeah, but it's just like the
city does not need another car.
133
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,800
I promise.
No, get out.
134
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,720
Just take a fucking cab.
What do you if you want the city
135
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,880
experience, which is part of
anyway, Yeah, but yeah.
136
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,480
So she's gonna take the her her
besties out for lunch as a thank
137
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,640
you for putting up with her
shit.
138
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,120
I bet.
I guess and she's now moved back
139
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,600
into the loft, which you don't
see because time jump.
140
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,080
Well, 'cause she moved out of
the loft to go out to do the
141
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,440
like out of town funny girl
thing and now she's back.
142
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,600
And now she's back.
I will say in this episode I got
143
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,640
so pissed about how Willy nilly
everyone moves in and out in an
144
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,880
apartment in New York City.
Oh my God, yeah, there was.
145
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,200
A lot of that.
And I was just like, no.
146
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,120
No, no.
Stop it.
147
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,840
Sam Sam does not have the down
payment on hand to move in and
148
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,200
out of all these apartments.
What are you?
149
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,840
Talking about is your 10 times
the amount of the monthly rent?
150
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,520
For real who?
Is cosigning well?
151
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,040
I wondered, like, would Mercedes
even have that like, And we're
152
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,040
supposed to believe she had
like, has already had like some
153
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,120
kind of music career, right?
I guess.
154
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,480
Literally the apartment that
Mercedes moves into is about an
155
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,280
apartment that you buy.
She moves.
156
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,640
Into like a brownstone.
The girls in a brownstone like
157
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,840
that's a, that's a, that's
$1,000,000 apartment.
158
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,520
She put down 100 G's as a down
payment on it.
159
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:50,800
Like, like what girl?
And then she's like, OK, well,
160
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,880
it's the end of the episode, but
she's talking about the like
161
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,920
Harlem flavor.
I'm like, girl, you live on the
162
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,440
Upper East Side.
Like what are you doing?
163
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,600
Yeah, according to those steps,
she's either like Upper West,
164
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,280
Upper East or the village.
She's living in fucking Carrie
165
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,880
Bradshaw's apartment.
Like what are you talking about?
166
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,640
Yeah.
I love doing this with two
167
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:17,280
former New Yorkers.
Like we're just no, no,
168
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,840
everything about this is wrong.
Everything about this episode is
169
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,400
wrong.
Wrong.
170
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,360
I love New York City.
I have such a warm place in my
171
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,520
heart for New York City.
It was my home for three years
172
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,120
like this.
No, stop it.
173
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,520
Yeah, Rachel's like, Oh my God.
We're all gonna go to lunch or
174
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,000
brunch or whatever the hell.
And it's like, we're all gonna
175
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,080
fit in this car.
And I'm sitting here counting
176
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,760
like, OK, so this is a this is a
town car.
177
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,600
There's three seats in the back,
two in the front.
178
00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:46,960
There's like 6 of you and a
wheelchair.
179
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,800
Hard pass.
None of you were.
180
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,240
Not all of you were fitting.
Well, and also the the driver's
181
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,160
like, oh, there's no room in the
front and there's no room in the
182
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,080
trunk.
Like what are you hauling?
183
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,160
How real?
So they just elect that Artie
184
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:06,360
and Sam are going to walk, which
does there is a a storyline in
185
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,800
this episode that could have
been expanded on.
186
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,480
And of course, they don't about
the absolute lack of
187
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,000
accessibility in New York City.
Oh my God.
188
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,800
Yes, I.
Didn't remember a lot about this
189
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,640
episode.
I OK I remembered key moments
190
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,640
about this episode but.
Not a lot know what it is.
191
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,280
For a second I thought they were
going into an accessibility
192
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,200
plot.
And I was like, oh, I don't
193
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,200
remember this.
I thought he was going to like
194
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,560
run into like subway stations
with like no like working
195
00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:33,480
elevator or something.
He should have.
196
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,520
Most of them.
Most of them, it's not what
197
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,480
happens.
He's like up and he just appears
198
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,880
down in the subway and you're
like, how did you get like no
199
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,880
offense, well, hard offense to
the MTA, but like how did how
200
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,600
did you get there considering
most of the stations are not
201
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,920
accessible?
I really appreciate also how he
202
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,520
just like rolls straight from
the platform onto the train.
203
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,280
Yeah.
No ramp, no jump, no nothing.
204
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,600
I'm like, wow, that's a well
aligned gap there Sir.
205
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,160
He really minded that gap.
He did really mind that gap.
206
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,520
Like, no, New York City is not
an accessible place at all.
207
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,240
The thought that he's actually
getting up to their, like,
208
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,120
Brooklyn loft, like, no friggin
way, right?
209
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,600
Yeah, shit's a walk up.
Like what are you doing?
210
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,280
It's absolutely.
I don't, yeah, 'cause his
211
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,840
storyline is really about
someone and and it's kind of
212
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,200
like it's a Ryan Murphy
storyline because it's a guy on
213
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,960
crutches.
Who steals his?
214
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,640
Backpack and he can only get
away because he can get up the
215
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:35,680
stairs.
And I was like, really?
216
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:37,960
It's a guy on crutches.
Cool and.
217
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,640
It's like, oh, my copy of the
script is in there.
218
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,200
So his whole thing is about
like, feeling afraid in the
219
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,560
subway, which, OK, people come
to New York and suddenly feel
220
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:51,200
afraid of a big city, and it's
like he should actually feel
221
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,520
more put upon that.
There's no easy way for him to
222
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,000
get around in the city.
Yeah, he should actually feel
223
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,680
afraid to be in the subway
because, like, the elevators
224
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,000
don't work.
They're they're broken, they're
225
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,560
dirty.
They are like, they'll, they'll
226
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:12,920
like just drop you out in like
the middle of like not the place
227
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,200
you need to be.
You have to like go down back
228
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,760
alleys and you have to like go
like way blocks away.
229
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,600
And you kind of have to like
navigate this whole like
230
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,600
secondary system.
And so like, that is a thing
231
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,760
that none of your other friends
are having to deal with.
232
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,600
And like that can be scary and
overwhelming, especially for a
233
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,120
new kid in the city.
Like that would have absolutely
234
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,520
been a thing to be scared of.
Not someone taking your
235
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,720
backpack.
Not so attacking your ragpack
236
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,440
that's very politely like
lightly hung on the back of your
237
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,160
wheelchair.
No, you carry that shit on your
238
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:46,760
front.
What are you?
239
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,160
What are you doing?
Yeah.
240
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,000
Yeah.
What are you doing?
241
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:56,640
So like but.
But yeah, all this to say is
242
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,120
that Artie's, Artie's like whole
wheelchair is not gonna fit at
243
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,880
that town car.
At all?
244
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,680
No, of course not.
Absolutely not.
245
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,880
And we don't ever see him
attempt to use the bus.
246
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:10,760
It's only about the subway.
It's.
247
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,200
Only about the subway.
And there's a pretty robust bus
248
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,480
system, which, OK, you get stuff
in traffic stuck in traffic, and
249
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,880
it's not great, but it's more
accessible than the subway.
250
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,520
It's much more accessible than
the subway.
251
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,040
So like, no, but we're not
talking about the buses at all
252
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040
or just so we can talk about.
He just like throws it away.
253
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,160
Like I could take the bus.
Like, yeah, bub, you could.
254
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,360
You could.
You could.
255
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,600
Yeah, that you're.
It'll be as fast as being in the
256
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,040
town car.
For real.
257
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,560
So actually probably faster
'cause they can run red lights.
258
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,360
Yeah, 'cause they can run the
red lights easier.
259
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,240
So like, what are we?
And comfier too.
260
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,320
Whatever.
Ryan Murphy's never been in the
261
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,600
city.
Never, ever once been on the
262
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,760
subway train.
It's scary and dirty.
263
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,760
Not these ones.
These subway stations were
264
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,720
pristine.
Yeah, they gave them a a
265
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,360
washdown before the cast showed
up.
266
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,800
For real.
We're not getting our costumes
267
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:12,040
dirty.
Well, I guess we can give
268
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,040
ourselves.
We can go in order or not, but
269
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,840
we can give ourselves a palate
cleanser of of a clean scene
270
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:27,080
that hit Tumblr hard and and and
lingered in the fandom because
271
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,960
it had been so long since we'd
seen them.
272
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,920
Yeah, no, this, this was
definitely after a drought.
273
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:41,880
Yes, it it was.
This is the the moment is maybe
274
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:46,120
I I think the first and only
time you see Curt and Blaine
275
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:51,080
like waking up in bed together.
It is.
276
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,920
It is marred by the fact that
Blaine's hair is still shellack
277
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,040
to his fucking head as he sleeps
in this.
278
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,760
Episode overall.
I've had.
279
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,120
A hate crime?
I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get
280
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,840
peer reviewed so hard.
This is Blaine in my nightmares.
281
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,920
A ski review.
This is factual.
282
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:16,520
Because the Gelman, he's wearing
a a very unflattering white tank
283
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,960
top.
He is wearing the classic Eddie
284
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,640
Diaz Gray sweatshirts with what
I'm pretty sure are like season
285
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,600
1 Rachel shoes.
They're like he has like morning
286
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,640
loafers.
Like what?
287
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,120
Like any loafers in the morning.
What is?
288
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,120
Happening, played Anderson.
Like, Can you imagine what a
289
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,600
pillow smells like that has gel
all over it?
290
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,120
Blade Warbler would never.
And I just remembered that this
291
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,640
was all like this was after
there had been tweets to Ryan
292
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,920
Murphy of being like, can you
fix his fucking hair?
293
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,960
And he was like, no, I will see.
You just hate you just hate the
294
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,920
fandom.
Like, I see what is what has
295
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,480
happened here.
I'm also just.
296
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,840
Like assuming that Kurt probably
is 1 to go for like higher
297
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:07,240
quality bedding, yeah.
How does he feel about washing
298
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,120
his bedding?
Like coated in.
299
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,080
I I don't what I don't
understand is like the hair and
300
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,600
makeup department or or the
producers or Ryan or whoever the
301
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,960
fuck makes these decisions like
is this, do you think this is
302
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:27,400
funny?
Why like that that his hair
303
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,720
literally looks like plastic?
Is that funny?
304
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,720
Do you do you see the phantom
going, Hey, this is actually
305
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,000
like ugly.
Could you stop?
306
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,360
And you're like, it's funny,
like you just don't want your
307
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,320
characters to look human.
I don't I physically do not
308
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:50,120
understand why.
And it's been what is this,
309
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,760
2014?
It's been 11 years and I'm still
310
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,360
mad about it.
Like we all have hair.
311
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,040
Well, Ryan Murphy doesn't, but
like the rest of us have hair.
312
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,720
So yes, we can make fun of him
for being stupid because he
313
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,119
sucks.
I just, I don't get it.
314
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,520
Like these character choices of
his fucking loafers and his
315
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,200
Gelmet and.
I I don't understand Blaine
316
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,400
Warbler.
Blaine Warbler would never, is
317
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,800
all I'm saying.
Blaine Warbler would never.
318
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,200
You know, in comparison to the
wig they put on Darren for maybe
319
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,800
happy ending, which is a very
similar Blaine cut.
320
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,400
Yeah, it has volume.
Yeah.
321
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,080
Like, do you see how they did
this?
322
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,760
Do you see how they gave him a
shiny slick swoop?
323
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,600
But he doesn't look scary.
He doesn't look sad.
324
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,600
And and like pained.
This looks painful.
325
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,440
Does.
I bet it was painful like.
326
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:44,120
There's.
No way.
327
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:45,840
It wasn't like.
Oh yeah.
328
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,080
Actually painful and it
probably, I have to believe it
329
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,000
wrecked his hair because with
that amount of Jelly you have to
330
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,640
wash it constantly and so he's
just.
331
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:56,920
Stripping your hair.
He's just.
332
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,960
Stripping it constantly, poor
thing.
333
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,040
I know and like these are the
same arguments we were making at
334
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,240
the time, but of course still
you look at it in retrospect,
335
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,080
you're still just like and I
don't why?
336
00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:08,400
Why?
Yeah, why?
337
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,160
Also, not to not to cross the
streams here, but Blaine making
338
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,840
pancakes so that Evan Buckley
could run.
339
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,800
Yes, his technique could do some
work, but he.
340
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,800
That's OK, He's making blueberry
pancakes for the love of his
341
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,080
life.
And you know what?
342
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,440
Anybody who makes blueberry
pancakes with love of their life
343
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,120
is a thumbs up Gold Star in my
book.
344
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,880
So.
And he looks so cute doing it.
345
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,880
He looks.
So happy minus the minus the
346
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,520
shoes.
Minus the shoes.
347
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,200
I put my notes here about them
singing You make me feel so
348
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,640
young together is I?
It's so cute that I'm angry.
349
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:48,400
You make me, you make me feel.
There are songs to be sung, lots
350
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,000
of bells to be wrong, and a
wonderful way to be wrong.
351
00:18:55,040 --> 00:19:01,920
And even when I'm old and Gray,
I'm going to feel the way I do
352
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:08,040
today because you make me feel
so, man.
353
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:16,920
I just feel so.
You make me feel so, yeah.
354
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:23,960
Pretty much.
I will say that, and I felt like
355
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,440
this at the time, that Blaine
slash Darren is giving 10 and
356
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,440
Kurt slash Chris is giving 5.
I agree.
357
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,000
I, you know, whatever was going
on in their personal lives or
358
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,280
whatever Chris was feeling like
in relation to the show and
359
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,240
whatever it is apparent in the
face, well.
360
00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:51,640
I also I I think it works for
the character art as much as I
361
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,800
hate the storyline.
Like I felt like Kurt was
362
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,880
supposed to be.
Like I mean clearly he's talking
363
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,600
about how he thinks the
relationship is doomed a few
364
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,120
minutes later or so.
Like yes, it kind of made sense
365
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,040
that Kurt was not as committed
to the bits with musical number
366
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,920
as Blaine was.
Also, like talking about that
367
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,880
and kind of the arc that Kurt
and Blaine go through this
368
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:16,560
episode, I find it a little odd
that Kurt is wearing a ring but
369
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,360
Blaine's not.
I, I don't know, call me a
370
00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:24,280
weirdo, but like, if you're both
wear rings, what are you doing?
371
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,640
Like, yeah.
Just the whole thing is that
372
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,640
they like swapped rings or am I?
Am I having a stroke like does?
373
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:36,520
Does Blaine not have a ring?
I think Blaine puts a ring on
374
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:41,600
Kurt and that's it.
I think dual rings is fandom.
375
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:47,080
Blaine Warbler would never.
I.
376
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,120
Season Season 2 Blaine would
want a ring.
377
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,080
Yes.
I mean, maybe it's a little
378
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:57,680
lower and out of sight, I don't
know.
379
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,440
Maybe it's a little lower and
out of sight.
380
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,160
Kurt's like, yeah, we're gonna,
we're gonna make sure you don't
381
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:08,000
meet any more lighthouses.
Yeah.
382
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,480
I mean, there's a, there's like
a lighthouse conversation later,
383
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,840
yeah.
Get that, Get that ring cutter
384
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,520
in the kitchen like let's go.
But yeah, it's I, I agree that
385
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,360
they should both be wearing
rings because it's like, it's
386
00:21:20,360 --> 00:21:22,160
sometimes it's so obvious
because there's like a ring
387
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,360
flashing in the light and you're
like.
388
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,200
Yeah, it's.
So bright, but like, it's cute
389
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:28,600
they're dancing through the
loft.
390
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,480
This kind of room sequence was
adorable for me.
391
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,320
It was adorable.
It's ironic to have a song.
392
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:34,480
Maybe not ironic.
I don't know.
393
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,840
Like you make me feel so young.
Like you are 19.
394
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,640
You are.
You are young.
395
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:40,200
It's fine.
You are.
396
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,800
Children, actually.
Children and then they get a
397
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,800
cock block by Sam, which get get
the fuck out of here, Sam.
398
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,840
Yeah, which gets called out
because we already talked about
399
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,920
already Sam has been crashing at
the loft.
400
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,800
He is playing video games all
day and Blaine comes home to
401
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,760
like tell Sam, hey, you need to
like get out of here.
402
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:08,600
We're kind of worried about you
and Sam's doing his I want to be
403
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:13,960
a male model shtick.
And I I really liked his line
404
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,960
about Mr. Shuster told us we
shouldn't care about what other
405
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,560
people think that we should just
be ourselves and what a load of
406
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,880
crap.
I was like, yeah, I know.
407
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,480
I also really appreciate Sam
just wanting to stay inside in
408
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,560
New York City.
He's like, it's loud and smells.
409
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,040
I'm like, aha, it does.
You're right, your home is
410
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,000
better.
Yeah, inside is good.
411
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:36,680
We like inside.
He hasn't part I sounds like he
412
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,440
hasn't been getting modeling
contracts or whatever, partly
413
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,560
because his hair is long.
I don't know that that's what
414
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:47,000
would stop it if you just style.
It if he has an agent, his agent
415
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,280
would either like market him for
his hair or just immediately
416
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:53,680
hack it off if he's not getting
jobs.
417
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:58,600
Yeah, well, they do.
But not before Blaine and Sam go
418
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,960
sing Best Day of My Life like
besties in Times Square.
419
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,360
Why are they going to Times
Square if they live in Brooklyn?
420
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,920
Because they love a long train
ride.
421
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,000
I guess.
They Blaine's being a good
422
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,320
friend and taking him to the
worst place on earth.
423
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:16,880
It's.
The exact.
424
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:22,160
Center of Times Square, Yeah.
I mean, it's cute.
425
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,360
Blaine gets a little.
Piggyback ride I do.
426
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:28,080
I do love their bestieism.
I'm glad that they're still
427
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:32,680
together because now that Blaine
isn't like mindlessly pining
428
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:37,680
over Kurt and he's not like kind
of got that misplaced crush on
429
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,280
Sam, they can actually be
besties in besties.
430
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,640
And they both actually really
need a friend and I love this
431
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,960
for them.
Yeah, I thought this was, it was
432
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,320
a cute scene.
You know, I always appreciate 1
433
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,160
character clocking that
something's wrong with somebody
434
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,760
else and being like I am gonna
do something about it.
435
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,600
Yes, if only someone would take
care of Blaine.
436
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,640
Oh well, Blaine's about to make
a lot of poor choices in a row,
437
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,000
so.
He's trying so hard.
438
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,440
Yeah.
Blaine always tries too hard
439
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,800
because we finally take some
classes at Niata.
440
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:23,080
For the first time in a season.
At least a season they Curtis in
441
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:29,720
like a modern dance mime class
where they're like pulling
442
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:35,040
invisible rope, and Blaine
suddenly appears because he's
443
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,520
been given special dispensation
from Madame Thibodeau to be in
444
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,000
the same master class even
though he's a freshman.
445
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:47,600
Because everyone loves Blaine.
Blaine Warbler Anderson stands
446
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:52,760
rise, and that means that Blaine
is in six of eight of Kurt's
447
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,520
classes.
But I got so mad at Blaine in
448
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:02,280
this entire scene.
Like he's he's he's getting a
449
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:08,520
little stalker Y and I I get it.
And also leave him alone.
450
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,200
Yeah.
Yeah, you're, you're officially
451
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,000
like one to two years behind him
now.
452
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,560
Stop it.
Did you think it was like a
453
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,520
little?
Well, OK, two things.
454
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,480
One, Darren is way too good at
being a mime.
455
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:25,840
Yes.
Yes, he is.
456
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,400
That was slightly disconcerting.
Yeah, it was a little off
457
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,480
putting I.
Lor lor lor speculation he.
458
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,400
Went to clown.
He went to clown college.
459
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,400
Because they had clown.
Because they had clown class at
460
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,920
Michigan.
Yeah, he did like a semester
461
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,080
abroad thing to do.
Clown College.
462
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,080
This man has This man has
actually had clown training.
463
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,920
He has it's, you know, I love
this for him.
464
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,680
He has a Tony, you know, from
clown to the Tony.
465
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,960
Yeah.
Follow your dreams, kids, follow
466
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,160
your dreams.
If you think you look silly in
467
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,920
clown class, just wait.
You could have a Tony one day.
468
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,040
But yeah, did you think this
like jump from we've moved into,
469
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:10,800
well, I guess there's been three
months we haven't seen.
470
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:19,440
But like, Blaine becoming a lap
dog and fully attaching himself
471
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:27,080
to Kurt so much that it like
breaks them up is too fast
472
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,080
because it just, it feels like
they're waking up in bed
473
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,000
together and singing a cute song
and then all of a sudden Kurt is
474
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:39,720
like, get away from me.
I.
475
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,120
Or did we need like one more
episode of Kurt?
476
00:26:43,120 --> 00:26:47,280
Like like his temperature rising
I would have liked.
477
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,440
Another episode of his
temperature rising.
478
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,280
I I don't know.
I also think that comes from me
479
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,280
craving like I I would have
liked to have seen more of the
480
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,800
moments Kurt was happy to come
up just like as it was.
481
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,400
It was like, oh, Kurt wants to
dump him.
482
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,480
Like, apparently, no, Kurt
didn't want to dump him.
483
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,160
He just wanted space.
But I'm like it.
484
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,760
The The bitterness was too much,
too fast.
485
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,320
Yeah, there was a lot of
bitterness, but it didn't for
486
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,840
me.
It didn't feel out of place.
487
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,640
It feels like Kurt's been kind
of harboring this bitterness for
488
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:19,080
a while.
I I think it's partly because we
489
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,120
never see them happy happy.
See them happy.
490
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,600
Well, no, that's kind of it.
Like for me to feel like Kurt
491
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,600
was in a place where he needed
space, but to be together, I
492
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,280
would have liked the mix of
like, OK, this can be a little
493
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,200
too much, but also I still love
you and like, I still want to be
494
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:37,320
with you.
And we got it.
495
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,720
Like told to us, not shown to us
in the way.
496
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:45,360
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, they it's like the
497
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:51,320
eternal Clane problem where they
got together and then you, you
498
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,360
never saw them.
Like flirty, happy, fun dating.
499
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,240
Right.
They, just like they like, sat
500
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,560
next to each other, sometimes in
the choir room.
501
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:04,200
And then, you know, had sex that
one episode.
502
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,280
That one time.
Where was wearing much nicer
503
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,680
pajamas.
He was.
504
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,920
He was.
He got those from anthropology.
505
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,640
I'm sure.
And then like Kurt left and
506
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,640
you're like, OK, great.
Great, I'm.
507
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,520
So glad I got to watch 7 seconds
of this relationship that we
508
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,680
adored.
And then he comes, Blaine comes
509
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,840
here and you're like, oh, it's
already bitter cool.
510
00:28:32,360 --> 00:28:34,600
Great.
Because Kurt was already a
511
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,960
little bitter, like, oh, you're
coming to Niata, Not like, holy
512
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,640
shit, you get to be with me in
New York.
513
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,040
It was like, oh, you're
following me.
514
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,200
Like yes.
I mean it definitely continues
515
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:51,000
to give the impression that like
that Blaine is more invested in
516
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,200
the relationship than Kurt.
Also, which not to go as tangent
517
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,480
but I also think is why when
Blaine fucks up it's on so much
518
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,480
of a bigger scale.
It's just like our dramatic
519
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,200
little Princess who has really
big feelings.
520
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,920
When his feelings are hurt he's
like so upset he goes and cheats
521
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,360
on Kurt.
Mm hmm.
522
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,040
Whereas Kurt is just like slow
simmering resentments.
523
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,280
Yeah.
Yeah.
524
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,320
Yeah, yeah, and all the feelings
come out of those big ass eyes.
525
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,480
Yeah, they.
Do you just see it more?
526
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,400
But yeah, so they have this
little conversation about like,
527
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:32,360
oh, am, am I crowding you?
And Kurt doesn't say yes.
528
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,440
He needs to say yes, but he does
not.
529
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,040
He does not, and there his
little mime box gets smaller and
530
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,360
smaller.
Poor guy.
531
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,360
I don't know man, talk to your
partner, says someone who would
532
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,360
never tell anyone anything.
Yeah, Emily, talk to your
533
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,560
partner.
I don't have one, so they're
534
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,840
they're the only single person I
know.
535
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,120
Talk to your group chats, OK?
Oh well, yeah, I could do that,
536
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,240
but I won't.
All right.
537
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,480
Well, do you know who else I
would like to talk to or talk
538
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:04,720
about?
Sam.
539
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:06,960
Well, I've been talking about
Sam, but I would like to talk
540
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,800
about Elliott Star Child.
What a underutilized character.
541
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,320
I'm glad he's still around at
least.
542
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:20,960
Yeah, I I like this kid.
Yeah, I think he's adorable.
543
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,360
This is the Curt and Elliot in
his little guitar shop.
544
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,040
Yes.
Which is also product placement
545
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,920
for a great big world.
Better be, I love that whole
546
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,880
album.
Because they're they're just
547
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,960
like staying there talking
about, hey, there's this really
548
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,480
cool song from a great big
world.
549
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,480
Like like the lead into the
song.
550
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,960
Was this pretty product
placement?
551
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,160
Yeah.
It was just product placement.
552
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,880
Like, OK, we'll just pimp
Darren's friends, but that's
553
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,240
cool.
They're, it's it.
554
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,400
They're a great little band.
That was a great album.
555
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,560
Like they're a great.
Album.
556
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,080
Yeah, it's.
Great.
557
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:51,800
Yeah.
Love it.
558
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,760
But yeah.
Also, Speaking of like, people
559
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,120
who don't know how to be New
Yorkers, cough cough Artie cough
560
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,880
cough Rachel Berry cough cough
all of them.
561
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,040
Blaine makes a pivotal New York
City mistake.
562
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,920
He does, he does he.
He brings in a couch off the
563
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,680
back of a truck.
Don't bring in soft fabrics from
564
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,760
the street.
Listen, this is the whole thing.
565
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,280
So people put out furniture on
the streets, in the street
566
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,200
corners because you don't want
to move it.
567
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,560
It's too much effort to throw it
away.
568
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,640
And that's fine to haul it off.
It's fine.
569
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:22,560
It's.
Expensive to fall.
570
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,680
If it's a hard surface,
something you can clean, a wood,
571
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,920
a plastic, take it.
Rich people put out expensive
572
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,400
furniture and you just take that
shit.
573
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,120
That's your furniture.
Now metal, yeah, all kinds of
574
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:41,880
good hard non porous surfaces,
yard furniture, kitchen tables,
575
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,160
shelving, chairs, yeah, all of
it.
576
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,560
Take it.
Pots and pans, those are yours
577
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:48,960
now.
If it's on the street, those are
578
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,280
yours now.
You can clean them.
579
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,400
That's yours.
A soft fabric.
580
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:54,720
Leave it.
Leave it.
581
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,480
Don't take it.
Don't touch it.
582
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,240
Because, as Blaine found out,
bed bugs.
583
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:06,440
It gets rained on, it gets like
garbage juiced on.
584
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:11,880
It gets peed on like it's no.
Don't ever touch a soft fabric.
585
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,680
If it's on the street, if it's a
couch or a pillow or blankets or
586
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,040
clothes, Don't, no, don't, don't
do it.
587
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,640
Don't do it.
Straight to jail.
588
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,280
Straight, straight to jail.
Straight to jail.
589
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,360
Blaine brought well it's not
cute to me because I don't like
590
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,560
mid century modern, but he
brought a mid century modern
591
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,480
couch in and it had bed.
Bugs.
592
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,160
I thought the couch was
adorable.
593
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,280
It did not look comfortable.
No, it looked.
594
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,040
Not about all, no.
It was cute though.
595
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,360
Just like yellow.
I like yellow.
596
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,720
I don't mind yellow but like I
don't like mid century modern.
597
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,280
It all looks like it's meant to
be looked at and not sat on.
598
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,080
Yeah, which I have a problem
with.
599
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,680
Yeah.
I like furniture that I can use.
600
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,320
Yes, they're not going to fuck
on this couch.
601
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,040
No, they won't fit on this
couch.
602
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,000
The two of them together will
not fit on this couch.
603
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,200
Exactly.
But Kurt sees this couch as an
604
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,560
omen of their relationship,
seemingly fine on the outside
605
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:10,000
but headed for disaster.
And he tells Elliot that he's
606
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,680
like, feeling suffocated and
he's losing his identity, Which
607
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,880
like, I kind of feel like he
should be feeling standing up
608
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,680
next to Rachel all these years
as well.
609
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,240
Like he's always chasing her.
You would think.
610
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,800
But and Elliot's like, yeah,
bro, you're like a little young
611
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,840
for this whole marriage thing
anyway, which point to Elliot.
612
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,040
But like, I think what you've
got is awesome and worth
613
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,160
fighting for and you just need
to set some boundaries and
614
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,760
somehow that cues into singing
Rockstar.
615
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,440
So they definitely just had a
song they wanted to sing is.
616
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:53,240
There anybody out there?
There's a meeting?
617
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,160
Can you show me a sign?
The more I look.
618
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:01,040
It just gets harder to find the.
World is spinning and I wanna
619
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,239
know why and a scene they wanted
to do and they just put them
620
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:10,560
together.
You know what?
621
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,600
This is not the first time this
has happened with Elliott Star
622
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,920
Child, so it's.
Not, and it's a shame because he
623
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,760
has a great voice and he's so
cute on screen and he seems like
624
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,360
he's so game for what's going on
in this show.
625
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,159
And I'm just like stop, stop
making his scene so silly
626
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,320
because I love his later scene
with Blaine.
627
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,360
Oh yeah.
But we do have to roll back a
628
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:39,480
second to the roll to the loft
because Artie has been reporting
629
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,719
the theft of his backpack, which
is silly.
630
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,040
Like what?
The NYPD is going to give a shit
631
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,800
about your backpack, but Blaine
is trying to use the Soda
632
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:56,080
stream, which I guess is kind of
loud, and Kurt snaps at him for
633
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,000
it and then tells the other
people I'm sorry about him.
634
00:34:59,000 --> 00:34:59,880
He just needs his bubbles.
He.
635
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,280
Just needs his bubbles.
He just needs his bubbles.
636
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,760
What?
Am I his bubbles?
637
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,640
Like which is so condescending
but also so funny.
638
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,920
It's so funny because.
Blaine is over there looking
639
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,640
about 5 foot 2.
Yeah, like.
640
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,840
And.
It's one of those, like, Kurt is
641
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,440
so mad and so, like, frustrated
with his boundaries with Blaine,
642
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:23,960
like he's just, you know,
feeling smothered and
643
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,400
overwhelmed, and yet he still
feels the need to defend him.
644
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,720
Yes, yeah, he's pulled like I
hate this fucking sound.
645
00:35:30,720 --> 00:35:34,800
Every noise in this apartment is
killing me and also.
646
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:35,920
He needs his.
Bubbles.
647
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,840
He needs his bubbles.
I love I love only Kurt in this
648
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,920
scene.
Everyone else, straight to jail.
649
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,000
Straight.
Yeah, straight to jail.
650
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,920
Rachel blows in, having had no
idea what's going on, and Blaine
651
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,840
offers her what sounds like a
really delicious drink.
652
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,360
Yeah.
And she's like, no, my local
653
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,440
corns, but I will take some,
like, hot water and lemon, like,
654
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,400
No, go make yourself some tea on
your own.
655
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,200
You.
Weirdo.
656
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,560
And then he makes her.
Then.
657
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,000
He makes her tea and lemon and
she's like Meyer lemons.
658
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,600
I.
Meyer lemon Friend Rachel Berry
659
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,960
Rachel Elizabeth Berry Rachel
Middle Rachel Middle Name Barry.
660
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,880
If you can identify a Meyer
lemon, I will pay you 100
661
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,720
American dollars.
Well, maybe it had the sticker
662
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:26,080
still on it.
Maybe.
663
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,360
That was his his protest.
So I want to leave the sticker
664
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:35,320
on it.
I, I just I, I, I, I want to
665
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:39,040
talk to a Rachel Berry defender.
Like, explain this.
666
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,440
She's so awful.
She's so annoying.
667
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,920
Explain yourself, but arty's out
there feeling super vulnerable
668
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:50,360
and alone, which, you know, if
they talked more about trying to
669
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,560
navigate in a wheelchair, like,
great.
670
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,880
But he's feeling alone because
he lost his backpack and and was
671
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,600
the victim of a mugging, which
sucks.
672
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,320
Yeah.
And and Rachel, her, she's like,
673
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,480
I'm going to empathize by
telling a story where I
674
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,720
accidentally gave an unhoused
person too much money.
675
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,720
I was like I.
Want to throw you off the
676
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:12,760
Brooklyn Bridge?
Yeah.
677
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,320
Get out.
I hate everything about.
678
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,680
You.
She's the worst.
679
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,760
And they just, they redeem her
all the time.
680
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:26,600
But yeah.
And then she gets accused
681
00:37:26,720 --> 00:37:28,320
straight to jail.
She gets accused of not being a
682
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,040
real person anymore.
And like was she ever was?
683
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:36,560
She ever a real person, truly.
She's a caricature of Lea
684
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,920
Michele.
OK.
685
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,960
The yes, which I think we've
said in the past, but the more
686
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,560
the show goes on, and especially
now that they've given her Fanny
687
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,440
Bryce, it's just like I'm all
we're doing is watching Lea
688
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:50,800
Michele.
Yeah, yeah.
689
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,320
I mean, and that is like Season
1 Rachel.
690
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:55,880
Yeah, that's a fictional
character.
691
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,200
But by now Glee is not a
documentary.
692
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,200
Whatever, whatever, whatever,
whatever.
693
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:04,360
And that's why Season 1 Rachel
is like, kind of fun.
694
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,560
Yeah.
I don't like her, but like
695
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:12,160
she's, I get her, I get her.
Yeah, I think she's interesting.
696
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,880
She's got, she's got, you know,
motivations and back story and
697
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,640
there's a reason for her being
the way she is.
698
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:28,960
And she was just, there was
something that you didn't hate
699
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,800
about her in Season 1, even
though she's got all the same
700
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,400
behaviors now in Season 4 or
Season 5.
701
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,360
Like I hate her now.
Yeah, there's no growth.
702
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,320
None.
Every time she's like.
703
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:42,840
Like every.
Time.
704
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,440
She's like, I'm gonna stop being
an asshole.
705
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,680
She doesn't.
No, she gets rewarded and
706
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:48,840
therefore.
Worse.
707
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,920
Yeah, and then you're supposed
to feel bad for her somehow.
708
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,640
Somehow.
Of like the so the see the next
709
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,840
scene of her like in her little
town car suddenly feeling like
710
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,680
she's sealed off from the
masses.
711
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,840
Like even just her phrasing.
It's I think it's supposed to be
712
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:12,600
funny, but I think there's a lot
of people who just feel that
713
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,360
way.
Yeah.
714
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:19,040
And I don't feel like the, the,
I don't feel like there's enough
715
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,840
of a separation between actor
and character to be like, I
716
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,680
don't know.
Do you, do you get it?
717
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,240
Do you get the I?
She's feeling isolated because
718
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:30,840
she's not on the subway and
she's losing her authenticity.
719
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,920
Like what authenticity?
Yeah.
720
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,320
You don't have any real life
experiences to draw from.
721
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:42,840
You're 19, lived in a small town
in Ohio, and you've been
722
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,800
slushied.
And you've been slushy.
723
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,360
I guess her real life experience
at this point is that her
724
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,440
ex-boyfriend died.
Yeah, but.
725
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,000
But the show doesn't talk about
that as something for her to
726
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,960
draw from, because they don't I.
Mean they.
727
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,560
Go there.
And like, obviously I get why
728
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,680
they don't go there, but also
like that would have been the
729
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:12,800
the like one life defining like
shitty thing that happened to
730
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:17,120
her that kind of gave her some
like perspective.
731
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,760
Yeah, she seems to have well
off.
732
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:25,360
Parents love her.
She did well in school.
733
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:31,080
She got maybe a little teased
throughout high school, like she
734
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:36,000
would call it bullied, but.
She she was bullied a little and
735
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,800
bullied other people a little.
And then?
736
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,720
And bullied other people in
return.
737
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:43,280
That's the one.
She is conventionally
738
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:51,120
attractive, talented and flirted
with her teacher.
739
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,200
Yeah, yeah.
Had boyfriends.
740
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,800
Dated a sex worker.
Dated a sex worker who was hot.
741
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,160
Oh yeah.
Got into the school of her
742
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,840
dreams.
Even though she didn't really
743
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,200
deserve it.
And one of the teachers was mean
744
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,840
to her for like a semester
before becoming her mentor.
745
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,800
I guess I.
And hitting a Broadway show in a
746
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,280
day.
Yeah, immediately.
747
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:21,400
I I'm not sure Rachel Stann
could argue other points in her
748
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:22,320
favor.
I could.
749
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,880
I agree with you, Emily.
I would love to talk to a Rachel
750
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,320
Stann.
Like you tell you tell me her
751
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:31,160
trials and tribulations.
All four of them.
752
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,200
So anyway.
Good times.
753
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,560
And then she gets like, she
talks about having and I, I
754
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,040
don't know if this was on
purpose, but she's like, I don't
755
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,600
have any real experiences to
draw from.
756
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:47,160
And then she gets out of the car
in Chinatown, and I was like, of
757
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,800
all the places to get out of her
car?
758
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,240
Like, are we supposed to be
drawing something from this?
759
00:41:52,240 --> 00:41:55,480
Like are we going to get like a?
Why is she driving through
760
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,120
Chinatown?
I don't know, like, are you
761
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,520
supposed to be like, this is the
real New York?
762
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,560
Like what are what are you doing
here?
763
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:07,560
Once again, I beg, I beg, I
plead with the Glee riders to
764
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,960
remember that their apartment is
in Brooklyn, yeah, and not in
765
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:12,800
Manhattan.
Are.
766
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,320
You going to, I mean, you can
take the train, but like, where
767
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:22,160
does she know how to get from
Chinatown to I don't care, I
768
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,320
don't care anymore.
Like it would be so much of this
769
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,440
would be so much.
I, I would give it so much more
770
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,520
grace if they actually lived in
Manhattan, if they were able or
771
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,440
even like, you know, northern
Manhattan or Harlem, if they
772
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,840
like lived not in Brooklyn or
Queens, if they were on the
773
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,360
island of Manhattan that like.
Just on the A line.
774
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,080
Yeah, just on the A line,
wherever on the A line, like
775
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,480
187, like that's fine.
But like, like, later in the
776
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,440
episode, they'll talk like Curt
and Blaine will talk about like
777
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,760
where they go to be alone and
they're like, motherfuckers, you
778
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,600
live in Brooklyn.
Yeah.
779
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,560
What there's places in Brooklyn
like, what are you doing?
780
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:07,000
I don't understand.
Yeah, I don't.
781
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,120
I don't Mandy, just to kind of
like fill you in the the jaunt
782
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:16,080
from their apartment in Bushwick
to Times Square is what do you
783
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,040
think, M 4050 minutes on the
train?
784
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,600
Yeah.
At best, yeah, like with no
785
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:26,120
delays and no switching tracks.
Oh that, that makes perfect
786
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:27,600
sense.
Yeah.
787
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:32,000
So like, yeah, they're, they're
Rachel's commute.
788
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,240
If she takes the train, it's
probably just under an hour.
789
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:38,720
Yeah.
Each way and.
790
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,720
For no discernible reason.
I mean, they're gonna they're
791
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:51,000
she's gonna have, I mean,
they're probably taking the L
792
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,680
well or like the well, depending
on so I don't know, like where
793
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,760
in Bushwick they're.
Yeah, it's the L or the the F,
794
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,640
the orange lines.
Yeah.
795
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,840
Or, well, depends on like where
in Bushwick they are.
796
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:08,000
But like yeah, the orange or the
L and then I mean maybe AJ train
797
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,240
depending on where the fuck they
are.
798
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,600
Maybe, but like the L trains
constantly close, like the L
799
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,800
train, the poor L train.
Yeah.
800
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,360
And then depending on where her
theatre is, like, right, I mean,
801
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,440
if she's in the Broadway
district, like, then she's going
802
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:27,000
to have to take the red line or
the blue, like the A, the A, the
803
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,400
E, the C or the NQR, whatever.
But yeah, it's not.
804
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,120
It's not a straight shot.
It's not a straight shot.
805
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,840
It could be depending on
traffic, like, you know, train
806
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,760
traffic 4550.
So really, it sounds like he was
807
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,120
applying the same logic as to
the theater and just doing New
808
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:44,440
York Mad Libs.
Like.
809
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,720
Name some places people know as
New York that they're gonna go
810
00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:50,360
there.
Doesn't need to make any sense.
811
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:56,560
Yeah, I mean like, you know.
Bushwick is like hip or and and
812
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:00,520
at the time in 2014 probably
affordable for them.
813
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,120
Probably.
Not anymore.
814
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:06,120
Not.
Anymore in comparison to
815
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,720
Manhattan.
So they probably, you know,
816
00:45:11,720 --> 00:45:13,960
someone on the team is probably
like, oh, they could probably
817
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:15,320
live in Bushwick.
And he was like, great, we'll
818
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:20,320
put them in Bushwick.
But do you still have to get out
819
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,000
of Brooklyn if you're working in
Manhattan?
820
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:25,520
And I mean, you can't.
It's not, it's not a straight
821
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,000
shot.
It just feels like again, like
822
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,560
very well paid TV writers
failing to do the minimal amount
823
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,280
of research your normal AO3
writer would do.
824
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,440
Correct.
Absolutely nobody pulled up the
825
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,160
Google Maps.
Nobody pulled.
826
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,320
Up is pull up a Google map just
be like oh shit that's like 2
827
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,880
trains and a walk.
Yeah, that's like 2 trains and a
828
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,760
walk.
Like, come on, guys.
829
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:51,680
Yeah.
Like I'm also thinking about
830
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,280
like, Washington Square Park.
Washington Square Park is a big
831
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,320
hit among the NYU students.
Yes, because.
832
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:01,120
That's where they are.
But like, is Niata just like
833
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,360
standing in for NYU?
Is that why they're all down
834
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:07,080
there?
I think it's supposed to be like
835
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,160
like an NYUI.
Don't know that they've ever
836
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,400
given it a location.
Yeah, but I always kind of
837
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,280
assumed it was South of 14th.
Yeah, probably.
838
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,400
Just just given like it's vibe.
Yeah.
839
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:26,360
I don't know that it's South of
Houston, but like because
840
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,600
Washington Square Park, like I
kind of put it in the NYU.
841
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,320
And put it in the NYU district.
Vibe.
842
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,720
Yeah, sorry, Mandy.
I hope you're enjoying this tour
843
00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:38,960
of New York City.
Yes, this is educational.
844
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,600
But yeah, I don't.
They've never, as far as I
845
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:46,360
remember, they've never said
like, oh, it's on Lafayette or
846
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,120
asked, you know, like we have to
get off at Astor Place.
847
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:52,040
Like I don't, then why would
they bother?
848
00:46:52,240 --> 00:46:55,760
I don't know, but in any case.
Yeah, we we take, we get
849
00:46:55,760 --> 00:47:00,000
Starbucks at the yeah, yeah.
In any case, Rachel Berry got
850
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,120
off in Chinatown for absolutely
no discernible reason other than
851
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:04,800
she wanted to get off in
Chinatown.
852
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:10,080
Unless she was trying to pull
some, like, authentic New York
853
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:14,680
experience.
Yeah, and, and they cut a scene.
854
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,200
I don't know.
But like, I was, I kind of
855
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,240
girded my loins for like an
awkward Rachel Berry in
856
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:22,720
Chinatown moment.
And then it didn't happen.
857
00:47:22,720 --> 00:47:24,040
I was like, thank you.
Yeah.
858
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,240
Well.
The moment she said that, she
859
00:47:26,240 --> 00:47:30,400
wanted to stop by an herbalist
to get something that's the Ohio
860
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,880
kids had never had before.
And I was like, oh, are we about
861
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,520
to go there?
That's that's the moment I was
862
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,440
like, oh, don't, oh.
No.
863
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,880
'Cause I couldn't remember,
'cause these these episodes are
864
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:43,840
fuzzy as fuck.
I've never seen them.
865
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,240
I've never seen this.
Yeah, when she said that, I was
866
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:49,240
like, we're not, we're not gonna
do this, are we?
867
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,720
Are we really gonna have like a
no?
868
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:57,080
So I, I don't know if there was
like a cut scene of her going to
869
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,320
like an herbalist, then they
just didn't.
870
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,040
I was like, I can't, I can't
watch this.
871
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:02,640
I have to I have to go now.
Yeah.
872
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Well, but it didn't happen.
Speaking of something that
873
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,920
should have been cringeier than
it was.
874
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:11,480
Blaine taping out the loft.
Blaine taping out the loft and
875
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:18,280
Sam's new job.
Yes, so so Blaine is he is pre
876
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,080
planning a workspace in the
loft.
877
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,160
His he has a voice over.
He's talking about how he feels
878
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,480
like he is living in someone
else's home, which is legit.
879
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,280
There's been I don't know how
many people have lived in this
880
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,600
loft now.
Santana, Rachel, Kurt, Blaine,
881
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,480
Sam.
Who else?
882
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,880
Elliot never lived there.
Did.
883
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,800
What's his face?
The the Oh my God.
884
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,480
ABS McGee.
Brody.
885
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:51,760
Brody, did he live there for a
little bit?
886
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,440
Probably.
So like, it makes sense he wants
887
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:58,320
to like Nest.
Yeah, he's a nester.
888
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,360
He's talked about, you know,
Kurt's made this home.
889
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:04,080
Beautiful but not functional
with, you know, that's fine.
890
00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:09,840
And then Sam walks in with his
short little Bieber.
891
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,920
Well, it's not quite the Bieber
because it doesn't go over, but
892
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,560
it's much.
It's a much shorter, cooler
893
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:22,520
haircut and Sam has booked his
first modeling job for bubble
894
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,720
booty contouring underwear for
men.
895
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:31,720
I love this for them because not
all men are blessed with round
896
00:49:31,720 --> 00:49:33,360
booties.
This is true.
897
00:49:33,720 --> 00:49:36,400
This is true.
I'm a little bummed that we
898
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:40,000
didn't see them wearing it.
A little bit, you would think
899
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,480
that they would have done this,
but.
900
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:42,880
And I just think that's a
tragedy.
901
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,400
True story, do.
You remember if anyone do do
902
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,200
fandom like fan art about this
because I oh.
903
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,280
I'm I'm sure there was fan art
about this.
904
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:55,520
There's probably BLAM fan art
about it too.
905
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,560
Might have to go back and try to
find some because yeah.
906
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:02,680
Yeah.
Bootylicious.
907
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:09,040
For the, for the research, yeah.
For the science, yeah.
908
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,440
So Sam announces that he is
moving out into the model
909
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:16,760
apartment with what he assumes
are modelling dudes, and Blaine
910
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,880
actually looks super sad.
He does.
911
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:24,760
That's his bestie.
And it is sad because that's,
912
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:30,160
you know, their buds.
So when Kurt comes home he like
913
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:34,640
immediately attacks Blaine for
having moved stuff around.
914
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:40,280
And the tape and.
He's like back away from the
915
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:47,960
lamp and he goes off on Blaine
and is like, he doesn't want
916
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,840
someone to walk into their
sanctuary and have their eyes
917
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:57,440
drawn to a hideous workspace,
which is, I mean, and he's like,
918
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,120
you can't barge in here and do
whatever you want.
919
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:03,960
And he's like, he's really like
my home.
920
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,880
This is my home.
And Blaine's like, but I thought
921
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,800
it was our home, which is
correct?
922
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,240
I think they're both Dicks here.
They're everybody's wrong
923
00:51:17,720 --> 00:51:19,840
because Blaine's like your
design choices aren't always
924
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:24,360
100% brilliant.
Which is not the way he could
925
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,200
have phrased it.
Yeah, little mean.
926
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,160
I mean.
And then Kurt brings up that he
927
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:35,760
was talking to Elliot about this
and Blaine in one of my favorite
928
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:40,680
teams just because it's tasty,
was like, I bet you were talking
929
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:44,160
to Elliot.
Like like Blaine isn't the
930
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,040
serial cheater in this
relationship.
931
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:50,080
He's never done anything wrong
in his life and he's like, I bet
932
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,520
he's your friend.
And the way Darren delivers
933
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:56,960
these lines is tasty.
It's so good so.
934
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,040
Tasty and Kurt's like calm down
psycho.
935
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,560
I'm not saying that these were
like personal between them, but
936
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,200
the line delivery was
delightful.
937
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:13,520
It was it, it, it felt like, you
know, Chris gave some good Kurt
938
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:17,400
energy.
The Blaine energy wasn't super
939
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:23,440
there, felt maybe a little more
like Darren Pasty.
940
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,400
Perhaps it's a little tasty
little snack.
941
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:30,400
Little snack.
Snack I I mean, I hate it for
942
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,440
the characters, but for me I was
like, yeah.
943
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,280
Yeah, my notes just read Divorce
era.
944
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:37,960
That's what mine say.
Yeah.
945
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,080
The brain rot is strong.
It says divorce era.
946
00:52:43,240 --> 00:52:46,040
Divorce era.
And he's calling Kurt's calling
947
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:52,320
Blaine pouty and weird, which is
a weird way to phrase something.
948
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:54,840
Ouch, but OK.
But OK.
949
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,520
And tells him to put everything
back where it's supposed to be.
950
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:01,680
This is all very territorial.
Well, OK, so Speaking of people
951
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,440
who need to just communicate
better with themselves and not
952
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,400
necessarily other people, Artie
has to fight the subway again.
953
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,320
He does.
He does.
954
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,320
He's really fighting for airtime
in this episode 'cause it's like
955
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,360
that your main couple like
divorcing on screen and then
956
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:20,040
you've got like Artie getting
splashed by gutter slush and
957
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:25,480
you're like, I OK.
And like OK, on the one hand I
958
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:30,120
do feel horribly for Mr. Rd.
Abrams because the subway is
959
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,640
like so inaccessible and
everything sucks.
960
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,800
On the other hand, he is a full
ass pedestrian stopped in the
961
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:37,840
middle of the sidewalk.
He.
962
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,480
Really is.
He's parked out directly in
963
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,720
front of the subway entrance.
And some guy's like, move it.
964
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:44,000
And you're like, yeah, move it,
man.
965
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:46,520
Move it.
Get out of my fucking way.
966
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,000
Stop standing in the middle of
the fucking sidewalk.
967
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:50,680
New Yorkers are so mean.
Like, they're not.
968
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,800
They're busy move.
They're not.
969
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,400
Yeah, they're they're not mean.
They're just they're, they're in
970
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,120
motion.
They're in motion all the time,
971
00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:58,600
moving.
Damn.
972
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:03,640
Yeah, Artie versus the subway.
Poor guy getting hit with city
973
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:07,040
juice.
Very unfortunate for.
974
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:08,720
Him it is, and then they have a
scene.
975
00:54:08,720 --> 00:54:11,800
He has a scene with Rachel where
she's had some sort of epiphany
976
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,480
about being a twat monster and
she doesn't want to be
977
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:20,000
sheltered, so they're gonna take
the subway together.
978
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:21,000
Now.
I don't know how they get down
979
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:22,920
there together because they'd
have to take two different
980
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,680
entrances.
Or they could both fit in the
981
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,480
elevator if the elevator's
working.
982
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:29,360
She's gonna protect him.
Trust me.
983
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,240
I took Krav Maga as a child with
the JCC, and I can protect you.
984
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,920
Never seen it.
Yeah, but OK.
985
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:38,880
And you know, the city is less
scary with a friend.
986
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,760
I took Krav Maga as a child at
the JCC.
987
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:46,720
Cool.
Would have been funny to see but
988
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,880
OK.
And they sing Don't Sleep in the
989
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:53,360
subway, which I did not pay
attention to.
990
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:59,400
I only paid attention because
part of me is like, first of
991
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,600
all, that subway station is the
cleanest I've ever seen.
992
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:09,360
It is also the like most
awkwardly lit, but all these
993
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,800
like dancers dancing on the
subway car.
994
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:16,600
Part of me is like, Oh my God,
they did that for Hollywood.
995
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,440
And the other part of me is
like, oh, it's a dance card.
996
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,640
Yeah.
Showtime it's.
997
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:25,520
Like, oh, OK, cool.
Yeah, that was unscripted.
998
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:27,720
It was just Showtime.
It's just Showtime.
999
00:55:27,720 --> 00:55:32,680
I'm like, oh, OK, whatever.
Their their actual filming just
1000
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,080
gets interrupted by Showtime.
OK.
1001
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,960
Do we wanna go back up to to
Blaine and Elliot or we wanna go
1002
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,600
down to Sam in the model
apartment?
1003
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,920
Like, OK, well Sam in the wild
apartment is quick because he
1004
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,760
has moved in.
The rooms are small and he's
1005
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,600
like, that's OK, I've been
homeless, which is like kind of
1006
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,200
funny.
And also like, remember how Sam
1007
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,280
has real life experiences that
we don't talk about?
1008
00:55:56,160 --> 00:56:00,320
Yeah.
So there's a guy there whose
1009
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,680
life story I would like to get
into because he says I got to go
1010
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,040
do this paid webcam thing real
quick.
1011
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:11,760
Is he doing porn in the model
house A. 100 percent 100,000%.
1012
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,240
Cool.
I want to go talk about him
1013
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,880
because that's now two sex
workers we've had on the show
1014
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,600
that are like Played for Laughs
and what are we doing, Murphy?
1015
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,400
Glee is not a documentary.
Maybe.
1016
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:29,240
So it turns out one of Sam's
roommate is another Sam.
1017
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:33,760
A girl, Sam.
A girl.
1018
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:39,400
Who he likes for about 5 minutes
until she turns out to be like a
1019
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:44,760
font of drugs.
Yeah and then he pieces out and
1020
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,280
I was like, could we not have
stuck with the storyline for
1021
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:52,880
like 3 episodes while the the
model house like turns out to be
1022
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:58,320
a bad situation of like eating
disorders and speed and all this
1023
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,720
kind of like bad influence and
then he has to leave I.
1024
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:06,440
Mean like how many episodes of
Rachel's sex worker boyfriend
1025
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,160
did we get like?
Sam.
1026
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:10,720
That.
Yeah, like.
1027
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:14,080
A fraction of that.
He was in and out of there in
1028
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:17,440
minutes.
Like that could have and it was
1029
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,520
the IT was a great, it was a
beautiful apartment too.
1030
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:24,480
It wasn't it look like a scary
sketchy model apartment.
1031
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:27,320
Like this was a thing that Sam
could have been like, Oh my
1032
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:29,080
gosh, this is such a great
opportunity.
1033
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,360
And then to watch it slowly
unravel.
1034
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,520
And, you know, like a better
show could have been, you could
1035
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:36,960
have had some like cool lighting
and design work where it starts
1036
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,360
out looking really cool and
pretty and then the lighting
1037
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,000
changes.
So it starts to look dingier and
1038
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,360
dingier as he realizes that it's
like like a drug done.
1039
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,680
Yes.
But no, he's he's in and out.
1040
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,880
Just doesn't even unpack.
And again like.
1041
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,240
That's what you missed.
Like, that's not how moving out
1042
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:59,480
of apartments works, no.
OK, OK, so now we get Blaine and
1043
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,760
Elliot.
Blaine busts up into Elliot's
1044
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:06,440
apartment, which I guess he
knows where he lives, and
1045
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,680
absolutely nobody calls anyone
or texts anyone.
1046
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:11,280
They just show up at people's
places.
1047
00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,440
And I love the way he bitch
slaps Elliot's door open.
1048
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:18,520
Yeah, just, like, put chunk.
And he's like, we need to talk.
1049
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,720
He's also glad that Elliot never
friended him on Facebook.
1050
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:26,880
Let's also I just this entire
scene, my whole body was just
1051
00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:29,000
like huh?
So let's talk about a mid game,
1052
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:30,360
huh?
I'd be into it.
1053
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,480
I'm not mad about it.
The mid game we could have had.
1054
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,640
So let's talk about a mid game.
Let's talk about it now.
1055
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:44,960
Of course, in in the regular
Googie world, the mid game would
1056
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:50,280
have been Kurt and Elliott,
because it would have been it
1057
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:55,560
should have been Blaine and
Sebastian in the fandom.
1058
00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:59,760
I there's absolutely no reason
why Elliott shouldn't skadoodle
1059
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,160
right on into the middle there.
Oh, sure.
1060
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:04,560
Yeah.
Like there's absolutely no
1061
00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:09,000
reason why we can't do like, a
enemies to rivals to friends to
1062
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,600
lovers like scenario.
That would have been beautiful.
1063
00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:17,000
I have absolute faith that the
fan fiction writers of 2014 got
1064
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:18,240
us I.
I think we'll probably.
1065
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,960
Do Oh well.
Yeah, also this I think this
1066
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:27,040
entire scene was a little bit of
actor bleed.
1067
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:30,760
Yeah.
Because you know, Blaine keeps
1068
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:36,240
Blaine starts talking about how
how he's just really jealous and
1069
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:41,400
how much he loves Kurt and is
just so mad at this like glitter
1070
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,200
rock vampire.
Because Blaine is so clearly
1071
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:48,160
jealous of Elliot and like the
life he has in New York and the
1072
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:52,400
the relationship he's built with
Kurt and then start child just
1073
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,080
like hands him a guitar like
this will calm you down.
1074
00:59:56,280 --> 01:00:00,320
Literally he's.
And my immediate action, my
1075
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:04,280
immediate reaction was like,
does Blaine play the?
1076
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:06,120
Guitar.
I know, I know.
1077
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,840
There's a couple lines in here
that we're like, is this about
1078
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:12,200
Darren or is this about Blaine
'cause he says this thing like
1079
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:14,880
your hair is so full and thick
you don't need to rely on hair
1080
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:16,520
gel.
I was like, what are we doing?
1081
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:19,080
Here, you you don't know that
about Blaine.
1082
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,120
He's always had hair gel.
Like Blaine plays the piano.
1083
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:26,840
Yeah, I don't know if Blaine
plays the guitar, but Darren
1084
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:30,960
does.
Blaine does now.
1085
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:32,600
Blaine does now.
This.
1086
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:35,640
This entire scene was just about
Adam Lambert and Darren Criss
1087
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:36,880
just jamming.
Absolutely.
1088
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,120
It was, yeah.
What are we doing?
1089
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,280
Like OK.
OK.
1090
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,800
Yeah, do you see?
I mean, I, I, I liked the scene
1091
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,960
other than I feel bad for
Blaine.
1092
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,720
Yeah.
Like, feeling like he has that.
1093
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:58,240
He feels like this.
Also, the lighting on him was
1094
01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,840
real pretty.
Yes.
1095
01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:03,640
And he, he's like, they've been
apart for so long, and he just
1096
01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:05,840
wants to catch up with Kurt.
And it's pushing Kurt away.
1097
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,360
And Elliot's trying to be like,
listen, man, there's like 9
1098
01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,440
million people in the city.
We need room to breathe.
1099
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,040
And Blaine has been thinking of
boundaries as walls.
1100
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,640
And Elliot's like, you just need
to jam, man.
1101
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:22,400
Just just relax.
Chill, here's some weed you're.
1102
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:27,520
So you're so uptight, you.
Massaged a chill.
1103
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:31,160
Oh my God, yeah, this whole
thing is just.
1104
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,720
And then they sing Glitter Rock
Vampire, which is absolutely
1105
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:39,000
just Darren and and yeah, Adam
Lamp is.
1106
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:44,040
Jamming, jamming.
I'm not mad about it, it's just
1107
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,000
not their characters.
It's not.
1108
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:47,440
Right.
Yeah.
1109
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,920
So when Blaine comes home,
having been soothed like a
1110
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:57,000
toddler with a guitar, Kurt is
waiting on the couch.
1111
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:01,480
And Kurt already knows that he
went to see Elliot because it's
1112
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:06,360
been 6 hours and Blaine took a
water taxi to the Statue of
1113
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:10,400
Liberty while Kurt went to the
Highline to.
1114
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,000
I'd like to state once again for
the record, they both live in
1115
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:15,480
Brooklyn.
Brooklyn.
1116
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:19,280
I don't know where Adam where
star child lives.
1117
01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:23,000
I think also in Brooklyn.
So Kurt went all the.
1118
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,560
Way based on based on that
adorable like stained glass
1119
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:27,960
window he has.
Yeah, he lives in.
1120
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:29,360
Brooklyn.
So Kurt went all the way to the
1121
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:34,240
Highline.
Blaine went to Lower Manhattan.
1122
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:35,240
I don't.
Whatever.
1123
01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:37,680
Yeah, he went all the way South
to lower Manhattan and then off
1124
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:42,680
the off the southern tip.
OK, but Blaine Blaine's like,
1125
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,920
we, I should move out.
We need to like take a step
1126
01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:49,240
back, which, you know, I've been
saying that they shouldn't have
1127
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,640
gotten engaged in the first
place.
1128
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:54,400
But it was real.
Fast.
1129
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,600
They need to like take a look at
their situation that it's not
1130
01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:00,720
working out.
They didn't really have a
1131
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:02,200
conversation about living
together.
1132
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:06,080
Blaine just showed up, which is
true.
1133
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:12,840
They are like 19.
But it is also like, if you're
1134
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,520
going to be engaged, shouldn't
you live together?
1135
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,480
Like, shouldn't the two of you
move out together and live
1136
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:24,480
without nine other people?
Oh, I was just gonna say, yeah,
1137
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:26,840
I feel like the conversation
should have been like, maybe
1138
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:30,520
let's take a step back and not,
like, be engaged yet.
1139
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,720
Let's like, take a step back and
learn how to date as adults
1140
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,520
instead of like, we're staying
engaged.
1141
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:45,440
You're moving out.
Something, I don't know, I I
1142
01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:49,720
would feel like instead of blame
moving out so we see each other
1143
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:56,160
less, let's move in the two of
us so that we're not surrounded
1144
01:03:56,160 --> 01:04:01,920
by other people and feeling,
yeah, like we have no space.
1145
01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:05,960
Although I don't think either of
them have incomes.
1146
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,040
Neither of them have income so
they could not make the 10 times
1147
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:11,600
their monthly rent and like.
I don't know how they're who's
1148
01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:16,600
affording any of this anyway, so
I don't know.
1149
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,440
But yeah, yeah.
So the the conclusion they come
1150
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:25,360
to is that Blaine is going to
going to move out to protect
1151
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:27,760
this precious thing that they
have.
1152
01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:32,480
I do really appreciate that both
for the characters and for the
1153
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,120
audience, they were like, we are
not breaking up, we are not
1154
01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:38,240
breaking up.
But like the underlying tone is,
1155
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:39,960
we're breaking up.
Yeah.
1156
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:42,080
But the underlying tone is 100%.
We're breaking up.
1157
01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:43,880
We're going.
To have make up sex first, but
1158
01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:48,000
we are going to break up because
like what else are they going to
1159
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,400
do in these characters?
They can't just be fucking
1160
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:53,040
happy.
God forbid claim, be happy God.
1161
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:57,800
God forbid, like I this is
becoming an increasing problem.
1162
01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:02,920
Like there's, there are there
are television shows who are
1163
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:08,640
able to do we have a happy,
loving relationship and there is
1164
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:12,320
drama within it.
And yet I don't ever, I'm not
1165
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,120
ever actually afraid that one of
them is going to, you know,
1166
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,680
disappear forever.
It's possible.
1167
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,240
I've seen it happen.
It is just.
1168
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:22,480
Not with hurt and blame.
Nope.
1169
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:25,520
Somehow.
Not these two.
1170
01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:28,120
Yeah, I hate it.
It sucks.
1171
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:32,320
So everyone is is at the loft.
We have to hear about this like
1172
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,680
crazy thing that happens with
Artie and Rachel on the L train.
1173
01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:37,840
They specifically say it's the L
train so that at least they know
1174
01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:43,120
they're in Brooklyn and they see
the guy who mugged Artie.
1175
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:47,680
He goes up to him, pepper sprays
him because that's now like
1176
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,960
assault.
Although he was trying to rob
1177
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:53,440
somebody else.
They managed to get the laptop
1178
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,600
back from the guy's apartment
because he's just been like
1179
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,720
stealing from people and
suddenly the cops care.
1180
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:00,080
And that's the end of that
storyline.
1181
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:05,000
He like found his strength and
gumption and his lack.
1182
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,120
He no longer fears the subway or
something.
1183
01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,800
And then Blaine also tells
everyone that they're going to
1184
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,760
he's going to move out and and
he and Sam are going to get a
1185
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:17,240
place together because Sam has
also moved out of the the model
1186
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:21,680
apartment.
So I feel like we as a country
1187
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:23,280
have moved on from this far too
quickly.
1188
01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:29,760
RT Abrams releasing pepper spray
in a crammed, closed, crowded
1189
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:33,040
subway car.
That that is assault.
1190
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:38,120
That is a terrible idea.
Thank you for ruining
1191
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,800
everybody's day.
Artemis Abrams.
1192
01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,400
Artemis Abrams?
Is that his real name?
1193
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:47,880
No, I'm sure it's Arthur.
No, I think it's, I think it's I
1194
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:52,440
like Artemis.
Yeah, Artemis Abrams, straight
1195
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:56,840
to jail crime.
Crime they they tried to get the
1196
01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,240
laptop back from the cops and
then said the cops arrest him
1197
01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:01,960
like.
Yeah, Sir.
1198
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,600
And then, surprise, Mercedes
shows up.
1199
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,400
So they wrote Santana out of the
show, right?
1200
01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:13,960
I don't remember the next time
she shows up honestly.
1201
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:19,480
Like Mercedes has absolutely no
reason to be here unless it's to
1202
01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:22,840
fill the Santana void, Yeah.
That is true.
1203
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:26,880
Like, I love Mercedes, thrilled
that she's here, but I have 1000
1204
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:32,600
questions.
I I couldn't begin to tell you
1205
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,960
why she's here other than her
album wants to have a Harlem
1206
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:38,280
vibe.
And then she moves into the
1207
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:42,920
Upper West Side.
In East Coast, yeah, I into her,
1208
01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:47,840
yeah, it's clearly a brown zone.
Yeah, but it's clearly like
1209
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,120
$1,000,000 apartment.
And she forces Kurt and Blaine
1210
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:57,320
to to move the couch for her.
While Sam is inside putting.
1211
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,120
Desperately trying to.
Flirt shelves together and
1212
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,800
desperately trying to flirt and
to get to get laid.
1213
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:07,280
I will bet 50 Whole American
cents that the two of them end
1214
01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:09,040
up hooking up before the
season's out.
1215
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:10,960
I mean, I hope so.
I was like them.
1216
01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,560
Me too, like you.
Know poor guy, he's trying so
1217
01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:19,160
hard.
But they come to the conclusion
1218
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:24,439
that Blaine and Sam will then
rent out the second bedroom in
1219
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:28,600
Mercedes's apartment.
Yes, I'm picturing bunk beds.
1220
01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:31,560
I'm also picturing bunk beds.
She said.
1221
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,439
I have a spare bedroom and
they're like, we'll take it like
1222
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:36,920
together.
Together.
1223
01:08:38,279 --> 01:08:39,920
Are we cheating on Elliot
already?
1224
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:41,920
We're cheating on Elliott
already.
1225
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,120
The casual threesome has moved
from Elliott to Sam.
1226
01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:48,359
Look, Elliott gave them a good
experience and then they can
1227
01:08:48,359 --> 01:08:52,120
move on.
I'm saying that if everyone in
1228
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:55,120
that apartment, Sam is going to
be the most down for a casual
1229
01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:56,560
threesome.
I think so, yeah.
1230
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,600
Probably.
Sam would be 100% down.
1231
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:03,200
He'd be like hot hot boom
because he's.
1232
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,640
Like, what are we going to do
about our sexual chemistry?
1233
01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:08,279
And then gets like a hand to the
face.
1234
01:09:09,279 --> 01:09:11,399
So obviously he's got to move on
to his next best bud.
1235
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:16,600
He does.
And then I was so pissed at
1236
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,800
Rachel being like, I can't help.
I have to go to the theater.
1237
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,439
Like could you just leave?
I'm always so mad at Rachel.
1238
01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:23,160
I'm so mad at Rachel.
Get out.
1239
01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:25,680
Go away.
Like don't even be in this scene
1240
01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:28,160
just go away.
I'm sorry I can't help my voice.
1241
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:36,680
Go away.
Hate you so much it's not even
1242
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:38,960
an interesting character thing.
Like I can't help, I have to go
1243
01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:40,560
to the theater.
Like I don't care.
1244
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:46,960
And she gets the final song of
people from Funny Girl over.
1245
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,560
But I do love her outfit here in
the little black dress and the
1246
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,560
heels and the tights.
I always love this outfit.
1247
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:53,000
It's.
The same outfit that we see
1248
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,320
here.
All the time, I know, and I love
1249
01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:59,280
it every time.
People who love people or need
1250
01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:03,240
people, whatever it is.
Curtain Blaine walking around
1251
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,080
hand in hand.
A little potluck dinner with
1252
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,480
everyone.
But they're so cute.
1253
01:10:07,480 --> 01:10:08,920
This is, this is.
They're trying to remake
1254
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:10,640
Friends.
Yes, they are.
1255
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:15,320
And that that is, that is the
episode.
1256
01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:19,800
We, we are, we've set up that we
are back in, well, not back in
1257
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:21,320
New York, but we are fully in
New York.
1258
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:26,840
The newbies are gone.
We did not have Tina.
1259
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:31,320
I think this is also the last
Ellie, the last episode with
1260
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,240
Elliot, because God forbid we
keep a fun guest star.
1261
01:10:38,440 --> 01:10:41,360
I like him, too.
Everyone got a voice over except
1262
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:44,800
for Kurt in this episode.
Yeah.
1263
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:51,680
Yeah.
Will doesn't sing at all.
1264
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,480
That's nice.
Thank God he was not even in the
1265
01:10:54,480 --> 01:11:02,160
episode.
I think that's the trivia of the
1266
01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:08,760
episode.
I I did, I did read on the IMDb
1267
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:11,560
because I like looking at the
like bloopers and goofs and
1268
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:15,480
stuff, that Blaine isn't wearing
a jacket or scarf when he goes
1269
01:11:15,480 --> 01:11:17,560
to Elliot's apartment, but he is
when he comes home.
1270
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:21,280
I mean, honestly, that's, that's
pretty common.
1271
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:24,280
I would say if you like, you
know, especially because it's in
1272
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:28,640
the winter time, if if like you
go over to a friend's house and
1273
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,760
it's just like regular cold and
then you leave their house and
1274
01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:35,720
it's like fucking cold.
You know, if this is a friend
1275
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,120
that you see like on more than
one occasion, it's like, Hey,
1276
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:40,760
can I borrow like a hat or some
gloves or a scarf?
1277
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,360
Yeah.
Like that's not out of the
1278
01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:45,320
realm.
It's the missing scene.
1279
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,880
Favorite songs?
No.
1280
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:52,960
No.
You make me feel so young.
1281
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:57,720
I I just like that song, even if
I don't love the undertones it
1282
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:03,400
has with Kurt.
I'm going to have to go with
1283
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:20,490
Best day of my life 2. 3-4 this.
Is going to be the best day of
1284
01:12:20,490 --> 01:12:37,760
my life.
Even though I love a great big
1285
01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:41,040
world, I just I love best day of
my life.
1286
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:44,320
I think I like best day of my
life.
1287
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,840
I think this the IT was the most
fun.
1288
01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,160
I want it to be You make me feel
so young.
1289
01:12:52,480 --> 01:12:56,320
I just, I just don't like the
song that much.
1290
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,800
Like I would say.
That I'm Frank Sinatra song like
1291
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:01,360
I'm not I.
Like the song?
1292
01:13:02,440 --> 01:13:06,640
Like if I think if it had been a
different song than the scene, I
1293
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,960
would have been like I would
have vibed more with because
1294
01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:12,920
it's Curtain Blaine.
Yeah.
1295
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:17,720
But like, you guys are 19, you
can't feel any younger.
1296
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,000
Right.
You make me feel so young.
1297
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:22,640
God, what are we in like 7th
grade?
1298
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:25,480
You make me.
Feel like a middle school kid
1299
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:30,480
like.
I don't want any love of my life
1300
01:13:30,480 --> 01:13:32,360
to make me feel like a middle
schooler do.
1301
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,680
You have any favorite lines that
you can remember?
1302
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:43,080
I mean all of all of the the
blare and delivery lines.
1303
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,200
Blairin.
I've forgotten about Blairin.
1304
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:48,240
Oh.
Yeah.
1305
01:13:48,480 --> 01:13:51,680
Blairin Yeah, mine is.
I bet you were talking I.
1306
01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:54,600
Bet he's your.
Friend like delicious.
1307
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:59,680
My favorite is still from the
from the That's what you missed
1308
01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:02,080
on Glee.
The way it was edited.
1309
01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:08,360
Just oh, God, hold on.
Yeah, he's got a baby on the
1310
01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:09,960
way.
God, that's awful.
1311
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,000
What's our one nice thing?
That one, that one good thing?
1312
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:20,080
I love when I ask this and then
there's just dead silence like.
1313
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:26,040
I I love the glitter rock
vampire.
1314
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,360
I love Elliot.
Star child, actually.
1315
01:14:28,440 --> 01:14:30,600
Yeah, that's, I'll cosign that
one.
1316
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:35,160
Elliot is the good thing.
He's he's the best thing every
1317
01:14:35,160 --> 01:14:38,440
time.
I really missed Aaron's voice.
1318
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:43,560
I miss like him just getting a
chance to just saying it's
1319
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:51,200
always nice to hear it.
I for as cursed as his bedtime
1320
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:54,920
outfit is 'cause it is truly
cursed.
1321
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,240
I do really appreciate him
making pancakes and not burning
1322
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:02,080
them.
Yes, I thought that was
1323
01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:05,840
precious.
That is precious so.
1324
01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:13,720
Yes, I, I guess mine is that we
did get to see a little happy
1325
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:18,800
clean a little bit a little bit
because you know, I, I miss them
1326
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:24,360
and it, you know, we didn't say
it here, but we did watch this
1327
01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:29,320
episode and we did just get a
clean reunification.
1328
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:32,600
Yeah, we did the.
Timing, I mean when this episode
1329
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:36,480
actually airs, God knows.
But like, as of the recording of
1330
01:15:36,480 --> 01:15:41,920
this episode, Chris Colfer did
just go to Darren, Chris's Tony
1331
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:45,400
after party and they took a
photo together and the caption
1332
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:50,440
there was like cleaning on
Instagram and and Chris called
1333
01:15:50,440 --> 01:15:57,120
Darren his like husband reclaim
like it's been 84 years and
1334
01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:01,040
cleaning happened online and
that was really nice.
1335
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:06,800
I had a, a, a clean post
organically come across my
1336
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:11,880
dashboard the other day talking
about shipping portmanteaus.
1337
01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:16,280
Oh, wow.
Talking about, you know, like,
1338
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:19,920
well, yeah, they went with claim
because blurt wasn't gonna be
1339
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:23,640
any good.
I was like Oh yes, blurt.
1340
01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:27,080
Blurt We could have.
We could have done it.
1341
01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:29,800
Yeah, we could have.
I'm glad we went the other
1342
01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,840
direction.
But yeah, it was, you know,
1343
01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:37,160
given given the timing here of
like seeing them together and
1344
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:41,800
like cleaning on online publicly
and then have.
1345
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,440
Planning on Maine?
Planning on Maine and then
1346
01:16:43,440 --> 01:16:46,760
having like this episode with
their little dancy dance and you
1347
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:50,400
know, it was nice.
It was like a little like, oh,
1348
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:54,200
the memories.
Which is why we do this podcast
1349
01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:55,840
anyway.
Yes.
1350
01:16:57,040 --> 01:16:59,120
And then, you know, the next
episode happens and you're like,
1351
01:17:02,440 --> 01:17:06,120
well, because you know, Glee
likes to bring down everyone's
1352
01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:12,160
everyone's fun time rap because
it's the bash episode.
1353
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:19,040
We.
But for now, we can enjoy clean
1354
01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:22,720
getting to dance together in
their apartment.
1355
01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,640
You can find oh.
Do you have any, any last words?
1356
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:31,880
Any last thoughts, feelings.
I mean, it was nice to hear
1357
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:35,200
Artie sing a little.
He did, yes.
1358
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:37,880
This.
Would have ranked on the old
1359
01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,680
Kevin Mcscale.
Or whatever it would have.
1360
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:43,880
Yeah.
The Kevin Mcscale, Yeah.
1361
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:46,520
I love the Kevin Mcscale had
some he.
1362
01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:48,520
Would have made it versus.

1363
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,680
He had a whole, he had a whole
lot, a whole plot.
1364
01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:53,560
He had a whole.
He had like the whole C plot he
1365
01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:54,640
would.
Have made it all.
1366
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:58,600
Of STD's.
No, that's coming yet.
1367
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,120
Yeah, Yeah.
That's in the pipeline, not.
1368
01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:05,520
Yet.
Yeah, we get a Blaine feels fat
1369
01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:09,600

It's going to be awesome.
1370
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:15,600
Wait.
I can can we just be What do
1371
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:16,680

Think I said we should skip to
1372
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:19,560
613?
That's why I said it.
1373
01:18:21,480 --> 01:18:23,080
I was like oh I hate these
episodes.
1374
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:25,520
Next this.

1375
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:29,440

far as we talked about Buddy and
1380
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:48,000
the weird things that happened
on the show that we love to hate
1381
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:50,160
