1
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,360
Didology coach podcast and just 
like that recap. 

2
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,000
Hello, Sarah. 
Hi, Krista. 

3
00:00:21,240 --> 00:00:23,760
Hi, All right. 
So people really aren't liking 

4
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,920
this new season at all. 
They're not. 

5
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,000
And while I obviously I'm going 
to say it's, it's obviously it's

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,600
not what it was, but I don't 
expect it to be. 

7
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:34,720
Yeah, yeah. 
I didn't expect it to be what it

8
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,600
was. 
I'm finding what I like is I'm 

9
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,720
finding sort of the through ways
and the threads. 

10
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,120
I love the the symbols and the 
analogies and the metaphors. 

11
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:45,840
True. 
That's that's what I like. 

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,680
And this episode, I think had 
had a big one. 

13
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,800
So the episode starts off with 
Carrie meeting Lissette, her 

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,680
downstairs neighbor from her old
apartment. 

15
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:59,120
And they're meeting for now, we 
all know between Lisette's style

16
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:04,239
and her very drama fueled dating
life, we all know Lisette is 

17
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,160
supposed to be a younger Carrie.
Yeah, there's this great. 

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,160
I did a, my I did a recap on 
TikTok. 

19
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,960
And I have this photo and it's a
shot from season one or two, I 

20
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:18,080
think, where Carrie is down in 
the lobby of the building and 

21
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,440
she's at the staircase. 
And she's looking in the mirror 

22
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,480
of the staircase. 
And in the reflection is Lizette

23
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,480
poking her head out from her 
door. 

24
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,800
So there's Carrie looking in the
mirror, and she's seeing 

25
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,200
Lizette. 
I just liked it. 

26
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,120
I love stuff like that. 
So they meet for drinks, and 

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,200
Lizette, who is a jewelry 
designer, gives Carrie this 

28
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,960
really beautiful necklace she 
designed that had the numbers to

29
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:44,920
her old building on it. 
And Carrie loves it, of course. 

30
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,560
And Lizette is talking about 
modern dating and how terrible 

31
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,800
it is. 
And she's the only relationship 

32
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,840
she has with her phone is with 
her phone. 

33
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,400
Yeah. 
And she's saying things like, 

34
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,800
you must be so glad that you and
Aidan met each other before all 

35
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,280
this, right? 
So then Carrie goes home and she

36
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,400
goes back to this, this, this 
apartment that's very old, 

37
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,080
right? 
And she is out in the garden, 

38
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:13,760
sort of idyllic looking garden, 
and out of nowhere, a bunch of 

39
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:19,360
rats come out from under a Bush.
She freaks out and she has them 

40
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,760
come in and tear up everything 
from the garden. 

41
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:22,880
They have to do it all over 
again. 

42
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:28,200
So we we see her in the in the 
episode, she's texting Aiden and

43
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,240
she or she's thinking of texting
him and she writes out this long

44
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,400
text and then she's like, no, 
I'm not going to send this. 

45
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,840
I'm not going to do this. 
So because she wanted to tell 

46
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,800
him about the rats and she stops
texting him, I think because she

47
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,680
doesn't know if she's supposed 
to be doing this or not. 

48
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,800
She does. 
The boundaries really aren't 

49
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,720
clear, right? 
So somehow I don't know. 

50
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,360
She turns around. 
Aiden's there, Yeah. 

51
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,400
I hated that. 
I hated the explanation too. 

52
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,240
Like oh I just slipped in while 
one of the while the workers was

53
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,040
leaving. 
What? 

54
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,320
Right. 
That's scary. 

55
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,600
That's scary, Right. 
Right. 

56
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,120
So she's so thrilled. 
You know, whatever they hook up,

57
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,160
he stays overnight. 
Wow, a whole night. 

58
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,520
And in the morning, they're in 
the kitchen and she's at her 

59
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,920
table and she's reading a 
newspaper, which I thought was 

60
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,320
really interesting. 
I thought it was great, sort of.

61
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,320
Again, it's I think it was a 
symbol of something. 

62
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,880
Maybe meant to demonstrate 
growth in her character because 

63
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,200
otherwise there there isn't any 
right other otherwise she's just

64
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,320
lucky. 
I think it has to. 

65
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,680
I think it was there to be like,
oh, she's not writing anymore 

66
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,680
because she's not just thinking 
about men anymore. 

67
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,200
Well, she is writing. 
I mean, she does sort of resume 

68
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,040
writing, Yeah. 
I didn't think anything could 

69
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:44,200
give me the ick more than the 
phone sex, but Carrie Bradshaw 

70
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,880
Historical fiction, it turns 
out. 

71
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,480
Yeah, it's pretty bad. 
It's pretty bad. 

72
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,040
This was such a throwback to the
Suffern episode too. 

73
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,040
It sort of. 
Was right, It sort of was, but I

74
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,440
think. 
It's just a rat with a cuter. 

75
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,320
Outfit, right? 
I think what I interpreted the 

76
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,240
newspaper, right. 
So you've got her going, 

77
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,120
meeting, meeting Lizette, who is
the younger version of her, and 

78
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,320
she has the necklace with her 
old apartment building on it. 

79
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:16,240
And she's texting Aiden or not 
texting Aiden and thinking twice

80
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,360
about it, doubting herself. 
And then she's in the kitchen. 

81
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,720
She's reading a newspaper. 
And what I see this as is this 

82
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,800
is Carrie very much struggling 
with letting go of the past of 

83
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,880
moving or transitioning into 
this. 

84
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,200
Not so much in every other 
aspect of her life, by the way. 

85
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,440
But let me I'm going to give you
another example. 

86
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,440
So she hires this gardener who's
looks like Tom Hardy, Hot as 

87
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,480
fuck, please. 
I guess he's coming back this 

88
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,680
season, hopefully. 
And they're talking about the 

89
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,320
garden and what she's looking 
for. 

90
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,600
And he says, Carrie, I have one 
question that I ask all my 

91
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,880
clients. 
What is your vision for this 

92
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,320
garden? 
And she says, you know, I don't 

93
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,520
know. 
I liked it the way. 

94
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,000
I liked it the way it was 
before. 

95
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,560
Yeah, she's not just talking 
about the garden, she's talking 

96
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,400
about her and Aiden. 
Right, right. 

97
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,160
Well, and I think to some extent
her her old apt. 

98
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,480
I picked up a couple of 
instances this episode where it 

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,160
seemed like she was feeling 
nostalgic for her old place. 

100
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:13,680
Right. 
Yeah. 

101
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:20,680
She, I think, really is longing 
for her old life, not broke 

102
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,320
Carrie. 
She wants all the money, but she

103
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,680
wants her old life. 
She wants her apartment, but 

104
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,200
more than anything she wants to 
date the Aiden from 20 years 

105
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,000
ago. 
Well. 

106
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,280
Yeah, he's obviously better. 
Right. 

107
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,480
And when they first got back 
together, they were, they were 

108
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,640
dating as though 20 years hadn't
passed. 

109
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,560
They were just picking up where 
things left off. 

110
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,000
And as we saw, Aiden pretty much
forgot that he had three kids 

111
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,320
until one of them nearly died. 
And he had. 

112
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,160
What happened? 
I don't know. 

113
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:50,160
It just sounded like he was in. 
He was like 14. 

114
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,040
He got drunk, he was doing drugs
and he crashed the truck. 

115
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,080
Yeah, he almost died. 
It was. 

116
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,240
It was bad. 
Oh, that he almost died. 

117
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,120
Well, he said he had a. 
Truck without almost died into 

118
00:05:59,160 --> 00:05:59,920
a. 
Tree. 

119
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:01,200
Whatever, it doesn't matter. 
That's. 

120
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,680
It doesn't matter. 
It doesn't matter. 

121
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,560
So Aiden gets that wake up call 
and he's thinking, OK, I've got 

122
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,320
to stay focused on my kids. 
And he can so effortlessly say, 

123
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,480
so wait for me for five years, 
right? 

124
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,280
Carrie wants to wants the Aiden 
who didn't have kids and who 

125
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:19,360
made her the priority. 
We all do. 

126
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,280
Right. 
But she's right. 

127
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,400
And she also doesn't like that 
she writes this, this kind of 

128
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,160
heartfelt text about why she 
wants this new table. 

129
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,160
You know, I'm thinking of 
looking at this table for our 

130
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,560
house or our place. 
I don't know how she phrased it.

131
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,640
And she sent you know, and it's 
you know, it's this and it's 

132
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,640
that. 
And this reminds me of you and 

133
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,840
this reminds me of me and this 
reminds me of us. 

134
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,240
And she sends him a picture of 
it. 

135
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,200
And when he replies, he just 
replies with a thumb down, 

136
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,960
thumbs down table, right? 
So this now that this is how 

137
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,480
their relationship and how 
they're communicating, she's 

138
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,080
like, wait, I want the aid and 
that wanted to talk about 

139
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,320
everything, right? 
He doesn't want to do that 

140
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,320
anymore, right, because you're 
not his priority anymore because

141
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,920
his life, both of your lives are
at least his significantly 

142
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,240
changed. 
And I'm thinking, but carries 

143
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,240
didn't, right? 
Carries didn't. 

144
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:10,080
No, right? 
She just has more money. 

145
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,120
She just has more money. 
That's it carries. 

146
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,600
Life is still very, very much 
the same. 

147
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,400
Carrie is still very, very much 
the same. 

148
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,040
So I, I don't know, I liked the 
symbol and the symbol isn't 

149
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,640
there. 
And I liked the analogy of the 

150
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,880
rats underneath, you know, in 
the garden where you think 

151
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,520
everything's look, this is this 
is so great, this is so amazing.

152
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,200
But when you look underneath, 
it's not that great. 

153
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,760
There are rats, right? 
It's the same thing as her 

154
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,880
relationship with Aiden. 
On the surface, it looks, 

155
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,080
especially to outsiders, it 
looks like things are so great, 

156
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,800
but what's going on underneath 
isn't great. 

157
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,720
Like there really is trouble 
brewing. 

158
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,720
Even know if it looks good to 
outsiders, right? 

159
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,960
I feel like Anthony, it was sort
of like the, you know, the 

160
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,240
collective voice of the audience
in the last episode, right? 

161
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,320
And her friends are pretty much 
just humoring her at this point.

162
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,160
You know, they're in their mid 
50s. 

163
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,920
Miranda just doesn't have the 
energy anymore to be like this 

164
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,600
is delulu. 
Get a grip. 

165
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,760
But also, now that we're moving 
to Miranda, I don't feel that 

166
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,120
Miranda. 
I think Miranda feels too out of

167
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,280
sorts. 
That's the other thing she 

168
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:15,840
probably feels like she doesn't 
have a right to. 

169
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,080
She doesn't. 
Have a right to have to be able 

170
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,720
to say wake up Carrie. 
Yeah, you know. 

171
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,920
He is bad for you. 
He is bad for you right after. 

172
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,840
Listen, one word, Che. 
That's it. 

173
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,760
That's all we have to say to 
Miranda to shut her the fuck up.

174
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,559
So I don't think she's in this 
place where Miranda can dish out

175
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,520
that kind of criticism. 
Her and Charlotte both, I think 

176
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,600
they both know this relation. 
This is not good. 

177
00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:40,480
And it could be Seema, but she's
not doing it either. 

178
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:42,760
Yeah, Seema's too new is the 
problem. 

179
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,960
Right seem as too new. 
But it it really should be her. 

180
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,640
She's she's in a place to be the
voice of reason. 

181
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:54,120
Now, in this episode, Miranda 
yet again shows that she's way 

182
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,440
more comfortable with people who
are below her station, right? 

183
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,160
Because of the waiter. 
The waiter, Steve, was the 

184
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,520
bartender. 
Che was a comic. 

185
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:09,920
It was interesting the age gap 
with the the server because that

186
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,160
server was like, I don't know, 
clearly at least 20 years 

187
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,200
younger. 
And it kind of gave me the ick 

188
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,040
because if I saw a man hitting 
on a woman 20 years younger, 

189
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,880
that would give me the ick. 
Yeah. 

190
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,520
I care for it. 
Yeah. 

191
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,240
And I think the reason for that 
is they they needed someone 

192
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,560
relatively young in the role to 
play a wait, you know, a wait 

193
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:32,280
staff person. 
Well, I'm glad nothing came of 

194
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,280
it because. 
Right, but this is. 

195
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,520
Yeah. 
But when she meets this, this 

196
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,000
BBC journalist, of course, she's
all these excuses why? 

197
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,960
No, no, no, no, no, I can't, you
know, work and this and that 

198
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,120
because she cannot be with 
someone on her level. 

199
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,960
She can't, Miranda. 
I think I think this I so a 

200
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,000
criticism that I've been seeing 
that people don't like of this 

201
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,640
season is that people feel like 
Miranda has gotten lost. 

202
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,840
Like basically Miranda got 
rewritten as Cynthia Nixon, 

203
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,280
which should I think it's just 
she kind of did. 

204
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,520
So there's there's some truth to
that critique for sure, but I 

205
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:12,240
think it does make sense for her
character, you know, coming out 

206
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,400
in midlife, like right how how 
would she know how to be a 

207
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,760
lesbian? 
And not only, not only that, so 

208
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,960
coming out and exploring her 
sexual identity interface, 

209
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:27,800
changing jobs, changing careers,
going back to school, going 

210
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,480
through a divorce, that's a lot 
it is. 

211
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,600
People are really under 
underplaying this is this is 

212
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,600
just a whirlwind for her and 
she's hanging on for dear life. 

213
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:41,080
Right. 
I think that's coming through in

214
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,720
the. 
In the I think so too. 

215
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,440
But people, because they're so 
attached to the Ridge 

216
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,160
characters, they're not allowing
these characters to change. 

217
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,960
True, they're not. 
They want them all to be. 

218
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,040
And I and I do. 
I feel like you know those 

219
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,800
friends that when you start 
being really happy and 

220
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,920
successful, whatever they try 
to, they try to drag you back 

221
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,480
down. 
I'm not familiar with that. 

222
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,760
I've never been happy or 
successful but. 

223
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,280
Whatever. 
You know what I mean. 

224
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:12,480
When right like they don't want 
you to be happy because they 

225
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,040
need you to be miserable like 
them, They don't or. 

226
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,640
Whatever. 
Or it's a competition. 

227
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,800
Or you know, right? 
Yeah, they don't want to see 

228
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,760
these women happy at all. 
They don't. 

229
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,800
They don't. 
No, I, I saw, I don't remember 

230
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,760
if it was a video or something I
read because I've, I've been, 

231
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,520
you know, partaking of various 
media and other people's review 

232
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,920
of the show. 
But somewhere I encountered the 

233
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,280
idea that, oh, Carrie just needs
to be a cougar. 

234
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,600
She needs to go after a young 
guy and just have fun. 

235
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,040
And I was like that. 
I don't think that's it. 

236
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,840
I don't, I don't think that's 
the way either. 

237
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,640
I don't think Aiden's it. 
I don't think Cougar's it. 

238
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,600
I think Carrie has kind of been 
written into a corner. 

239
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,880
She has. 
She has. 

240
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,840
Simply because we had to kill 
off big. 

241
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,640
Well, they didn't have what they
chose to at first because the 

242
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,440
allegations came out afterwards.
Yeah, but we we had to kill off 

243
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:01,080
big. 
Right. 

244
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,480
He said he wasn't going to do 
it. 

245
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,720
He wasn't going to do the show. 
He had to. 

246
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,560
They had to kill him off. 
He'd do with the the premiere, 

247
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:10,240
but that was it. 
They want Carrie to be the 

248
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,880
single Carrie who was dating, 
right? 

249
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,080
And I think this is the other 
thing. 

250
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,160
Yeah, it was fun watching Carrie
date, but it was more 

251
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,160
interesting. 
I think we learned more about 

252
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,960
her when she was in 
relationships. 

253
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,440
For sure, we learned a lot. 
Well, and most of the time she 

254
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,880
was dating, she was still 
preoccupied with Meg anyway. 

255
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,200
Right, right. 
And I just feel as though they, 

256
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,080
I don't, I don't know. 
I don't know. 

257
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,880
Because part of me wonders if 
Samantha was was part of this 

258
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,760
series, right? 
Yeah. 

259
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,680
Would you still hate it? 
I don't think they would. 

260
00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:44,760
I don't. 
It's so hard to tell because 

261
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,280
Seema obviously was brought in 
to bring a similar energy and I 

262
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:51,120
really do enjoy her character. 
I love her character. 

263
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:56,040
But at the same time, she's too 
new to the friend group to be 

264
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,600
the voice of reason, right? 
To tell Carrie she's being 

265
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,360
delulu, Like she can't reign 
anybody in like Samantha would 

266
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:03,840
have been able to. 
Right. 

267
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,840
And I the other thing Samantha 
would have brought is she was a 

268
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:12,600
little bit older and I think 
that would have been great. 

269
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,840
To see, I think so too, To see a
really vibrant woman in her 

270
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,200
sick. 
Yeah, especially I think it was 

271
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,760
well, yeah, it must have been 
last season. 

272
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,680
I think it was the first episode
last season. 

273
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:24,520
It was basically the 
acknowledgement of 20 years 

274
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,920
passing episode, right? 
Where Miranda, Miranda was like 

275
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,320
critiquing. 
Sorry. 

276
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,240
Charlotte was like, oh, Miranda,
why, you know, why don't you go 

277
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,600
back to red? 
And Miranda was like, I'm just 

278
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,440
trying to age gracefully, you 
know. 

279
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:37,840
Do you remember that 
conversation? 

280
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,240
Terry was like. 
Episode. 

281
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:40,960
Yeah. 
Yeah, but I'm doing it right. 

282
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,960
Right. 
That one. 

283
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,400
I just feel like Samantha would 
have brought so much to that 

284
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,520
conversation. 
But anyway, anyway, it's yeah, 

285
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,040
it's hard to know what what we'd
be talking about if Samantha was

286
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,240
here. 
I do miss her though. 

287
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,680
I do, and I also wish that they 
would do more scenes with one or

288
00:13:56,680 --> 00:13:59,280
both of the new cast members. 
Right. 

289
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,200
We're not like we're not using 
them at all. 

290
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,080
But they're they're, they're 
having their own storylines, 

291
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,200
which is great. 
But I want to see them together.

292
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,360
I want to see we're missing that
too. 

293
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,680
We're missing that. 
Right. 

294
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,520
Well, it's the whole initial 
critique, right, that there 

295
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,800
were, there was no diversity in 
the show. 

296
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,600
There still isn't because the 
show aren't interacting. 

297
00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:20,320
Right. 
Well, except for Charlotte and 

298
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,240
Lisa True and Carrie and Seema. 
But there's something very odd 

299
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,440
about how these women of color 
are not being incorporated into 

300
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,560
this, Yeah, this, this clique. 
They don't go to the branches 

301
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,040
right? 
Right. 

302
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,760
And I, I wish they would. 
But now that we're talking about

303
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,240
Sema again, loved this storyline
because so. 

304
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,360
Odd. 
I don't think it was. 

305
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:48,480
OK, I was totally thrown off by 
Sid, because remember, Sid was 

306
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,120
the surprise lesbian that went 
to the baseball game with 

307
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,480
Miranda in season 1. 
Mm hmm. 

308
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:54,600
Sid. 
Not Sidney. 

309
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,080
Sid. 
I don't, I think they used Sid 

310
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,920
and Sidney interchangeably, OK, 
in that episode. 

311
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:01,960
OK. 
In any case, it was the same 

312
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,560
name. 
And so when Sidney popped up in 

313
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,560
this episode, I was like, is 
this supposed to be that Sidney,

314
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,600
or did the writers really not 
like they didn't have a Jordan 

315
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,720
or a Taylor? 
They've never heard another name

316
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,680
that could have been mistaken. 
It was a crazy choice. 

317
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,320
I didn't to go with Sid again. 
Sydney and Sid because I think 

318
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,000
they referred to her as Sid. 
But again, in any case, I loved 

319
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,920
this storyline or the subplot 
because I think it resonated 

320
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,280
with a lot of single women, 
especially single women over 40,

321
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,560
where it's a woman very 
confident, knows what she wants,

322
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,680
has high standards, and 
everybody around her sees that 

323
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,840
as sees her as the problem. 
Yeah, well, I think we all knew 

324
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,720
that guy wasn't coming back from
the bathroom, right? 

325
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,920
Right, right. 
That was that was obvious. 

326
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,440
And when she first meets the 
matchmaker, the matchmaker tells

327
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,920
her you have to change your your
presentation. 

328
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,840
You know, these metallics, 
they're cold and the animal 

329
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,760
prints make you look predatory 
and things like that. 

330
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:04,280
But when the matchmaker does to 
Seema what Seema had just done 

331
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,960
to all the men on her date, 
which is read them, and she 

332
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:12,920
reads her so well, Seema kind of
goes, maybe I maybe I should. 

333
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,320
Maybe this woman does know me. 
Maybe this woman, this stranger 

334
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,320
that I've known for 3 1/2 
minutes, knows me better than I 

335
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,880
know me. 
Love that character. 

336
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,880
The matchmaker, yeah, I did too.
I did too. 

337
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,920
I'd love to see her come back 
with Mary. 

338
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,680
I don't care. 
Bring all these people back, 

339
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,680
please, because. 
And, and I think that's what's 

340
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,520
so weird is the day players, the
guest stars, yeah, are a lot 

341
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,880
more interesting than the right 
the main character. 

342
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,720
Kristen Schaal was in this 
episode. 

343
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,040
She was great. 
Kristen Schaal. 

344
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,480
The college admissions 
counselor. 

345
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,000
Yes, who? 
Where is she from? 

346
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,280
She's in everything. 
She's she's in everything. 

347
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,280
She's in the Last man on Earth. 
She's the voice of Louise and 

348
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,960
Bob's Burgers. 
She's been a whole bunch of 

349
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,440
stuff. 
So Seema agrees to make these 

350
00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,560
changes and wear pastels and 
straighten her hair. 

351
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,960
If I see that again, I'll tell 
you again. 

352
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,440
Really, I can't stand when they 
straighten woman's hair to try 

353
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,599
to make them seem more 
approachable or less sema 

354
00:17:09,599 --> 00:17:12,200
already. 
Has like pretty straight hair, 

355
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,960
like it's got some bend to it, 
but it's like it doesn't have 

356
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,000
curly hair. 
It's very. 

357
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:16,640
Body. 
No. 

358
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,560
It's a lot of body too, right? 
They made everything about her 

359
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,280
smaller, including her hair. 
That's how I look at it. 

360
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,839
They wanted her to shrink, They 
really did. 

361
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,800
She looked basically the same 
but in. 

362
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,480
I don't think she looked the 
same at all. 

363
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,920
Not the same, not at all. 
And so she shows up to this date

364
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,400
where this guy is, you know, 
he's he's really enjoying Seema.

365
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,240
And so Seema decides to tell 
him, well, this isn't really me.

366
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,840
I'm a lot more this and that. 
And he excuses himself to go to 

367
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,960
the bathroom after he orders 
dessert. 

368
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,520
And in comes the matchmaker, 
because she was watching. 

369
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,040
Yeah. 
And she's saying, Seema, your 

370
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,400
date, he he's gone, he left, 
he's not coming back. 

371
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,960
And again, the matchmaker is 
trying to make Seema feel as 

372
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,440
though see, you know you lost a 
good one because basically, you 

373
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:06,160
were you. 
When women hear enough times, 

374
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,320
maybe you're too picky. 
It's near impossible not to 

375
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:10,880
start wondering. 
Well, maybe I am. 

376
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,280
It's near impossible not to 
start second guessing yourself. 

377
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:15,920
For. 
Sure, right, and. 

378
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,720
There's a, there's an 
inclination toward humility, I 

379
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,680
think, right in most decent 
people, right? 

380
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,360
Most of us don't come out of the
womb like I'm flawless, right? 

381
00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:28,960
We all kind of realize like 
we're a work in progress. 

382
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,560
So I think it's good to be open 
to hearing areas of potential 

383
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,920
improvement. 
So I I get why she was open to 

384
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:36,840
it. 
Right. 

385
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,040
In theory. 
In theory. 

386
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,480
Until she met the guy and then 
obviously it wasn't, you know? 

387
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,680
But what the reason why women 
are told they're too picky is 

388
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,280
it's again, this is being told 
to women who typically have 

389
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,760
their shit together and are 
independent and confident and 

390
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,480
don't need male validation. 
And So what does society have to

391
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:56,840
do? 
But they have to take her down a

392
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,520
peg and they have to blame her 
because that's what we're 

393
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,640
responsible for, everything. 
Well, that and doesn't Miranda 

394
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,840
say in episode one season 1 like
they don't know what to do with 

395
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:07,560
us? 
Right. 

396
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,400
Well, she's saying that about 
married women. 

397
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,240
OK, they don't know what to do. 
Whatever, I think the matchmaker

398
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,680
probably was married, right? 
Team marriage, anyway. 

399
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,000
Right, they don't. 
They don't know what to do with 

400
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,480
us. 
Yeah, they don't know. 

401
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,560
Yeah, they don't know what to do
with us, whether they should 

402
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,240
feel sorry for us, envious, like
whether we're just there for 

403
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,680
their entertainment. 
Correct. 

404
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,400
Yeah, Seema, of course, tells 
the the matchmaker to go fuck 

405
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,680
herself. 
And she goes off and she, you 

406
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,040
know, remains herself. 
She goes back to her old who she

407
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,640
was. 
She remembers who she was 

408
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,760
because for a second she allowed
this dipshit to tell her who she

409
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:43,840
was. 
Right. 

410
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,640
So we love. 
We love. 

411
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,840
AI, which I think we all would 
have, we all would have done 

412
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,560
right. 
We all would have been like, 

413
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,840
I'll try something new. 
Right, right. 

414
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,840
Tried it and she didn't like it.
That's it. 

415
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,600
Simple. 
So and then we come to 

416
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,040
Charlotte. 
I'm so bored by Charlotte's 

417
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,440
whole life. 
I'm so she is your stereotypical

418
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,120
Upper East Side mother. 
What's happening with rock? 

419
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,200
Are they as rock? 
Is the rock like not 

420
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,480
transitioning anymore? 
Is Rocky transitioning? 

421
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,320
I feel. 
Like I don't think, I don't know

422
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:15,920
that rock was ever 
transitioning. 

423
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,800
Rock was just non binary. 
OK, Rock was not. 

424
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,720
Trans OK. 
Rock just went. 

425
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,720
It was such a it was such a 
central part of Charlotte's 

426
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:24,960
story. 
Right. 

427
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,400
And I thought it was an 
interesting part of the story. 

428
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,600
It was. 
I like when they throw things at

429
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,480
Charlotte that throw her off. 
Kilter. 

430
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:36,600
So I guess this, yeah, I guess 
this time the thing that's 

431
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,560
trying to throw her off Kilter 
is supposed to be like Lily's 

432
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,760
future prospects, I guess. 
Maybe I don't, I don't know. 

433
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,440
This whole thing with the 
college counselor, first of all,

434
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:51,280
first of all, it's so unlike 
Charlotte and Lisa not to 

435
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,320
already have that woman's phone 
number, right? 

436
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,360
Have their children working with
her. 

437
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,280
I'm to believe that Charlotte 
and Lisa were both like, we'll 

438
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,520
be nonchalant about this, it'll 
be fine. 

439
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,920
Absolutely. 
You wouldn't. 

440
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:06,560
Neither of them would. 
Correct, correct. 

441
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,040
They've been planning for this 
since their kids were in 

442
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,840
preschool, not even 
kindergarten. 

443
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,280
Right. 
So that whole storyline, I 

444
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,320
can't, dude. 
I can't. 

445
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,200
These are accomplished, educated
women, and when it comes to 

446
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:22,120
being parents, they become 
absolute buffoons. 

447
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,440
That's what I can't stand. 
It's Buffoon. 

448
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,040
I just think it, it was an 
unbelievable plot point to be 

449
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,680
like, Oh yeah, suddenly they're 
very hardcore. 

450
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,840
It's just not true to their 
characters, right? 

451
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,600
They're both very intense all 
the time, especially about their

452
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,080
children. 
Yeah, yeah, it didn't make 

453
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,680
sense. 
And how about the fact that she 

454
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,840
was perfectly OK with the 
daughter making out with the 

455
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,160
ballet dancer? 
Yeah. 

456
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,040
Are we going to address that age
gap? 

457
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,160
I. 
Think he's only 18? 

458
00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:54,560
Maybe. 
I think he's only 18, but it's 

459
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:55,880
going to turn. 
Out yeah, she would, but she 

460
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,480
would be fine with the making 
out right because last season 

461
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,120
she bought Lily condoms to yeah,
pretty. 

462
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,240
Yeah, maybe, I don't know, maybe
in the wake. 

463
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,000
Of you said people don't like 
the season, it's it's pretty, I 

464
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,120
don't know, I'm pretty 
nonplussed about it. 

465
00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:12,240
Like, it definitely could be 
worse. 

466
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,880
Obviously it could be better. 
But can we all just count our 

467
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,840
blessings and just be thankful 
we haven't seen Brady yet? 

468
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,720
Thank God. 
Or Steve, and I love that 

469
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,240
character, but they made them in
so I mean, they just made the 

470
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,280
men so useless. 
You know what, I would bet that 

471
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,640
we're going to see Steve this 
season, but it's it's going to 

472
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,240
be like we saw Steve the last 
time he and Miranda broke up 

473
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,880
when he was dating that woman 
from Long Island. 

474
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,320
The Tacky 1. 
Debbie. 

475
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,040
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
He's going to be with somebody 

476
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,720
tacky for sure. 
Right. 

477
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,520
And had so happy. 
I hope so. 

478
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,800
Yeah. 
I hope so because I I feel for 

479
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,720
him. 
I really do. 

480
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,880
Yeah, so to to sort of close off
Charlotte and Lisa's story, it 

481
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,680
was just a dumb storyline and I 
can't stand. 

482
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,840
And The thing is, didn't didn't 
she return to work? 

483
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,680
Thank you. 
We did this whole thing about 

484
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,320
getting Charlotte a job, right? 
And this whole bit about like, 

485
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,920
oh, we got to get over eats 
because mom's not around for 

486
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,120
dinner. 
Like, why aren't you ever at 

487
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:13,680
work then? 
Right. 

488
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,880
And when you are. 
Look at this bakery. 

489
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,880
What day is it? 
Go to work. 

490
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,680
When you are at work, why are 
you looking up this college 

491
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,480
fucking recruitment or whatever 
she does? 

492
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,240
Why aren't you, you know, 
working, right? 

493
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,640
Because you're a very smart 
person and you're very 

494
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,960
accomplished and this was your 
dream job and you're excellent 

495
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,920
at it. 
So do it right. 

496
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,880
Why even at your job? 
Why are you being mom? 

497
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,960
I mean, it's the same with Lisa,
right? 

498
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,200
I love Lisa do. 
I do. 

499
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,960
But I also love that when she's 
working, she's working. 

500
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,280
Fuck. 
Y'all go find your own lacrosse 

501
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,200
stick. 
You go find your own tie. 

502
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,600
I've got stuff to do. 
You plan your own goddamn 

503
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,520
fundraiser? 
I have stuff to do. 

504
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,080
But I have to assume that all of
these interjections, right? 

505
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,120
All of the ways that life breaks
in, I have to assume we're 

506
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:04,080
saying that with Charlotte and 
Lisa and their kids, because 

507
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,240
that is what happens to mothers 
who work. 

508
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,440
They're, they're always kind of 
like 1 foot in one foot out, you

509
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:10,560
know? 
Yeah, yeah. 

510
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:11,480
OK. 
That's fair. 

511
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,960
That's fair. 
I just wish we could see 

512
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,280
Charlotte work. 
I just who? 

513
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,160
Otherwise, what was the point? 
Just show me more, show me more 

514
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,560
than her just being a mother. 
And here's the thing, if that's 

515
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,320
what she wanted right? 
Remember the cup with mug with 

516
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,120
trays name on it, which I have 
figured out years later. 

517
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,480
The fact that that it was Trey's
name on the mug and not hers was

518
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,960
how she has lost her identity 
and her identity became Trey at 

519
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,240
this marriage. 
I didn't pick up on that when I 

520
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,640
when I when that first aired 
many years ago. 

521
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,560
But she chose, we know that she 
wanted to be a mother. 

522
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,200
She wanted to raise these kids, 
which was great if that's. 

523
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,560
What she chooses. 
Phenomenal, right? 

524
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,200
Right, I choose my choice. 
I choose my choice. 

525
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,440
I choose my choice. 
You choose your choice again. 

526
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,320
Oh wait, hold on. 
What about the scene when 

527
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,720
they're at the restaurant 
because Miranda wants to ask the

528
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:07,360
the waitress out and and Carrie 
kind of goes, wait a minute, you

529
00:25:07,360 --> 00:25:08,640
should have what? 
What does she say? 

530
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,080
It's something that alludes to 
the bullshit bagels. 

531
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:12,280
It did. 
Yes, it. 

532
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,160
Really. 
Did it? 

533
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,160
Really. 
Did and for Miranda not to call 

534
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,000
back. 
I was pretty disappointed. 

535
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,960
Right, right. 
We see there's so many 

536
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,400
opportunities here, but 
Charlotte going back to work or 

537
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,080
not working, whatever, it's 
great that that's what she 

538
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,040
chose. 
But we saw her last year say, 

539
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,840
hey, I don't want to be just 
this anymore. 

540
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,640
This was fine for a while, but 
I'm not happy being just this 

541
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,440
anymore. 
Play it about Charlotte and 

542
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,160
Harry both in this reboot is 
like they're just not giving 

543
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,840
them any story. 
They're not. 

544
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,840
They're like this. 
I swear to God, if the only 

545
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,240
conflict in Charlotte's life is 
Lily doesn't get into her first 

546
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,840
choice Ivy, I'm not watching 
this show anymore. 

547
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:57,040
Correct, correct. 
One of them has to experience a 

548
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,960
problem, right? 
Or there is no show. 

549
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,320
I'm sure they will in later 
episodes, but that is the end of

550
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,600
this episode. 
You know what would have been 

551
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,040
what would have been great? 
Actually A Lily abortion episode

552
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,120
with Brady. 
Jesus Christ. 

553
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,200
Brady's Oh my God. 
Listen, writers, get to it. 

554

557
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,760

563
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:39,720
Pause. 
I have to wait. 

564
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:40,840
I'm sorry. 
I have. 

565
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,000
I had such a good idea just now.
I have to share it. 

566
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,280
OK, OK. 
You know how Lily is like 

567
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,720
unintentionally but like kind of
a demon and a menace? 

568
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,920
At least when she was like a 
toppler? 

569
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,800
Yes. 
Like she hid the phone, Carrie 

570
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,920
missed the call. 
OK, what if Carrie, 

571
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,400
unintentionally, is the reason 
Lily doesn't get to go to the 

572
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,720
school she wants to go to? 
You're welcome, writers.

You're welcome, writers. 
All right. 

574

Incredible.
