Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an I-Heart podcast. It may look different, but native culture is alive. My name is Nicole Garcia, and on Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, we aim to explore that culture. Somewhere along the way, it turned into this full-fledged award-winning comic shop. That's Dr. Lee Francis IV, who opened the first Native comic bookshop. Explore his story along with many other native stories on the show, Burn Sage, Burn Bridges. Listen to Burn Sage Burn Bridges.

Starting point is 00:00:34 First of all, you don't know me. We're all about that high school drama girl, drama girl, all about them high school queens. We'll take you for a ride and our comic girl. Drama queen cheering for the right team. Drama queens, drama queens, smart girl, rough girl, fashion but you'll tough girl. You could sit with us, girl. Drama queen, drama queens, drama queens, drama queens, drama queens, drama queens. We're back with so much more dirt.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Remember when people thought this was just going to be a recap show? And instead we were like, no, no, no. This is never have I ever. This is, welcome into our journals. This is, I'm going to tell you all my secrets. This whole Haley Nathan journey. Oh! From season one, the law.
Starting point is 00:01:20 I mean, I'm sure you guys have to write it out for people all the time. We're in the NBA. You're in the NBA? I'm in the NBA. Like, that moment was so iconic. So good. And that effervescent, just, like, just bliss was so fun to watch. That was really, really cool.
Starting point is 00:01:41 I'm so glad. It was really fun to watch, again, the emotion that felt so authentic. Because, like, you know, when you talk about how somebody could overact a lot of this stuff, like, he could have come in beaming. And you could have screamed and you guys could have just been smiling. But to watch Nathan Scott choking back tears and for you to realize what he's saying and why he's so emotional and then you're choking back tears, like, I loved how overcome you both were because it felt so real. Yeah, it felt very real for us too. Even just, I mean, it's like we were talking about in the last episode that we did. We're living in these characters' lives.
Starting point is 00:02:33 We're telling their story. We've been living in their storybook. So, yeah, I know James Lafford is not going to the NPA, but Nathan Scott was. And I love Nathan Scott. And I'm just, it felt so good. And, by the way, completely forgot that that's what happened. I was watching the episode legitimately thinking, he got cut and I was like oh man what are we going to do now and why does he want to go to
Starting point is 00:02:57 charleston and like I was so confused and I really got to experience that as a fan in real time because I totally forgot it was great so fun and it really it did it choked me up so much to watch you guys have that moment and then I remember thinking like watching you two with jackson out walking through the empty arena I was like Oh my God, I remember they went to Charlotte for this. Like, so cool. I remember, like, I don't know if it was maybe among us girls or if it was like the full cast group chat, but I remember the photos coming in.
Starting point is 00:03:35 I was like, holy shit, we're really like out here. You guys, this is crazy. Because, you know, you had to go there. It was like a, it was a field trip, basically, with the whole crew. And obviously, we didn't go. And I forgot that you actually shot Nathan doing the walkout with the real team. I forgot. He got his dream.
Starting point is 00:03:53 As soon as I saw it, I remembered what a big deal it was that the bobcats let us do it. But I literally forgot that it happened until I saw it. And when he came out, I burst into tears again. I was like, oh, my God, he made it. I'm right now. Like, I don't know what to do with myself because I know it's not real, but it is. It feels so, oh, it just feels like such a big deal. It was so special.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Yeah. It really was. That was fun to see. Fun to see finally come to life. James did such a great job. Jamie, the reveal with mouth. That was so great. Mouth of the TV studio.
Starting point is 00:04:30 They got to read it. Oh, come on. So good. That felt nice. And I love how disinterested Jamie is because that's how kids are. I mean, they're just like, yeah, yeah, okay. He's on his Game Boy. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:04:44 And you plan this thing. You're like, this is going to be so cool. And they're like, whatever. Yeah. To see it. Everything was, what I like about that storyline is that we've, we've yearned for it for so long now that it, it was so slowly unfurled. It wasn't rushed, you know, like when Julian said, I love you and we were all mad that it happened so fast and just like, it was an ambush. There was no ambush here.
Starting point is 00:05:12 This was so, like, lovingly laid out. It was meaningful. Everybody had their moment of realization. Nathan gets it Hayley gets it Jamie gets it mouth gets it like it's such a nice
Starting point is 00:05:25 moment for everybody yeah it really is dig it wow well I felt really good about the episode
Starting point is 00:05:34 I loved it I did love the comet driving off down the street down that famous street the wide shot from the river was cool
Starting point is 00:05:44 it was really beautiful I mean it was like a whole day filming just that one sequence and you know we did like the shots where the camera was on our side of the river but then you had a whole separate crew on the other side of the river so we had to clear out everything that we had used for the tight shots so that we could get that really far shot that was fun that was like yeah I think I had more fun with it than Chad did because Chad
Starting point is 00:06:11 was hurt and I'd already made like a game plan I was like okay well then I'm going to go to Paris. I'm going to write a book. And I was already cast in a movie with Chris Christofferson and Val Kilmer. Like I was like, okay. You're like, bye. Show's over. So he was struggling more than I was. But we really had fun in the house with like the baby. You know, like we really, he's from a family with a lot of kids. I'm from a family with a lot of kids. We both knew that we were like, he and I would talk about having kids. Like, we both really wanted to be parents, and I think that if we felt robbed of anything, it was getting to do that.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Like, I, that was what choked me up, is not getting to see Sawyer Scott grow up the way we've gotten to see Jamie grow up, you know, I felt robbed of that. That pissed me off. Because I like babies, and I like toddlers. And I thought that could have been real. fun but filming all that stuff was really nice um the scenes with moira were obviously you know when we had moira on we spoke about this but the conversation had been you know our bosses didn't want me back the studio did want me back i finally was given an offer and i said no thanks and they said
Starting point is 00:07:40 that's not how this works we offer you some money and then you make a counter offer and then we counter your counter offer and I was like I don't want to play games anymore like I'm just I don't want to play games and it hurts and being here sucks and I can do other things here I had already filmed like four movies in Wilmington I could stay with our crew I could stay with my friends I could stay in my house but I didn't have to be subjected to a tyrant anymore and and so everybody in the world from hair and makeup to wardrobe to the grips
Starting point is 00:08:18 like everybody was like you're not going to go you're not going to go you're not going to go you're going to go spend the summer in Paris and then you'll be back and everyone kept saying that to me which was so disrespectful
Starting point is 00:08:30 to me it's golden handcuffs everybody's like come on nobody says no to this which really minimized what I'd experienced
Starting point is 00:08:42 and pissed me off. And I was like, I don't know, I was just really confused. Because if every grown-up in the room is telling you what you're going to do, and they know better than you. And they've known you since you were literally 20 years old. A lot of them didn't know the extent of which you had to go through on the show, though, right? Like, well, maybe they were speaking out of turn because they didn't really know. I think I was the good girl in the same way Sophia had expectations for her.
Starting point is 00:09:16 I had expectations for me my whole life. I was the coach's kid. I was the one that was expected to just like take it. And I had taken it and taken it and taken it. And I just reached that point when Moira sat down next to me, when we were filming at the hospital, we were in the lobby where the dog ate Dan's heart in between setups. And Moira was like, get out of here.
Starting point is 00:09:40 You don't want this. And her saying it meant so much. The same way Daphne really affected you. Having a real mentor, you know, the Scott Boys have Whitey. We had the women on our show. And Moira being like, girl, come on. It meant so much because it validated me saying, no, thank you. I'm good.
Starting point is 00:10:09 I don't have to participate. in this emotional seesaw anymore. And she had done all sorts of cool stuff. And so the movie I was cast in, she was really supportive of that. I think she'd worked with some of those guys before. And so she was like, Chris Christofferson, are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:10:27 Why would you hang out here when you go work with him? That was cool. She was really cool about that. And then, yeah, we finished. Our very last day of shooting, was all the stuff where Peyton strapped to the bed. And so I'd already had the teary goodbye with Brooke, you know, where I'm showing you Peyton,
Starting point is 00:10:50 or I'm showing you Sawyer. And we'd done the scene where everybody comes into the hospital room. That was what we shot earlier in the day. And then you're right, that, like, really exhausting crane shot where they had to take the glass out. And it was just endless. Yeah. That was the last, last shot. And so I'm strapped to the bed and they'd had so much camera difficulty that with between the prosthetic that was on my belly and everything I was hooked up to in the positioning of the camera, it was better for me to just stay on that bed than it was to get up and like go hang out in the green room or, you know, go talk to anybody, go back to base camp.
Starting point is 00:11:32 And they wrapped everyone in in the observation room. And it was just one last shot. It was that sit-up shot where, like, Peyton sits up and, like, is looking around. And they're like, all right, that's a season wrap on everyone. And Chad ran down. And he was like, we have more scenes. And I was like, yeah, he and I had rented out the bar across the street from the hospital set. And we were going to have the whole crew.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Like, we were just going to buy drinks for the whole crew at our series rap. Yeah. I was like, yeah, we're here till the end. dude and he was like everyone's just leaving everyone's getting in their car and leaving and they don't understand this is your last scene ever and i was like okay and so chat i don't know how you guys remember this i can only remember it from my perspective chad disappeared and the next thing i know you guys were coming back in but i'm strapped to this bed and everyone was saying goodbye to me but it felt like a funeral like i'm literally laying there like i'm in a coffin
Starting point is 00:12:35 And, like, James Lafferty comes up to the side of the bed and is like, hey, uh, have a good summer. Like, it was so awkward. Oh, my God. And, like, you know, people would, like, put their head on my hair and be like, okay, well, see you next season. And I kept being like, no, you won't. What are you guys fucking talking about? It was an out-of-body experience being at my own character's funeral. and knowing I wasn't going to see a lot of you for,
Starting point is 00:13:08 I didn't see most of you for years after that. Sophia and I hung out. We were at a party in L.A. that summer. And I just remember for a long time, before I went to that first Paris convention, that was my last experience with anybody in the cast. And it was a deeply uncomfortable experience. Because it was, everything about it was gross.
Starting point is 00:13:33 I was gross, Peyton's covered in blood, I'm strapped to a table, I can't hug anyone, and no one can actually hug me because there's so many props involved. It's so awkward. Oh, God, it was so bad. So you're just getting like pats on the head. It was, it was the weirdest. And I was like, you know what? That actually makes sense.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Peyton Sawyer doesn't have nice moments. Peyton Sawyer has awkwardness. Oh, God. Yeah, perfitting, right? But then Chad, after everyone left, was like, see, I just. isn't a great everybody came to say goodbye? And I'm like, Chad, that was awful. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:14:09 It was a deeply uncomfortable moment. But then everyone cleared out and we finished filming for the night. And at the end of the night, Chad and I'm in a hospital gown and he's, you know, all covered in blood and shit. And we told everybody, we got this bar across the street. Please come and let us buy you a drink. and I'm trying to like not cry while I'm giving this goodbye speech and our fucking boss
Starting point is 00:14:39 shows up starts rubbing my shoulders just goes right into I just I was like after all of this after all that we have been through the hugs and the oh we just love you so much
Starting point is 00:14:56 it was such an uncomfortable day and so for me watching this back and watching it in reverse of how we shot it. Watching the horrible shit first and then getting to end on the stuff that was actually really nice was very therapeutic. It was like, oh, that's how it was supposed to be. That's what it was supposed to look like. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Yeah, it was, sometimes it's good to wait 15 years. Yeah. And reprogram it for yourself. Oh my God, what a weird day. It may look different, but native culture is very alive. My name is Nicole Garcia, and on Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, we aim to explore that culture. It was a huge honor to become a television writer because it does feel oddly, like, very traditional. It feels like Bob Dylan going electric, that this is something we've been doing for hundreds of years.
Starting point is 00:15:56 You carry with you a sense of purpose and confidence. Sierra Teller Ornelis, who with Rutherford Falls became the first native showrunner in television history. On the podcast, Burn Sage Burn Bridges, we explore her story, along with other Native stories, such as the creation of the first Native Comic-Con or the importance of reservation basketball. Every day, Native people are striving to keep traditions alive while navigating the modern world, influencing and bringing our culture into the mainstream. Listen to Burn Sage Burn Bridges on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You know what? This is good because this allows for a moment of humor because all the hospital stuff was so weird and we made fun of that gallery already. But what I didn't catch when we did it and I, caught watching it was Peyton says to Lucas after she's woken up from a coma I just want to be with you and our daughter and suddenly all of us are in the room everyone's there 15 people are
Starting point is 00:17:10 in your husband who she hasn't seen in ages like everybody and I was like well that poor girl she's got to deal with Dan Scott she's just she cannot be put through enough no she's like I just need a minute and everybody's like hi can we stare at you yeah I haven't brushed my teeth in five days. Oh, God. It's fine. Oh, you know Lucas was doing that for you. I loved watching that scene because Chad had my makeup all over his face.
Starting point is 00:17:38 You know, I'm like wearing super pale makeup. And Chad was so emotionally invested at the scene. He didn't want touch-ups. But what that meant was that take after take, he just had like white makeup all over his lips and his face from kissing my head. And I just want, yeah, I loved it. I loved it. That's so funny. Yeah, it was, I think what it meant leaving was that I could then take this knowledge and apply it in so many other ways and be like, sometimes a bad example is the best example and be like, okay, how can I do different things differently on sets that I run? And when I started producing like Christmas movies a couple years later, I was like, how do I reach back for people and how do I protect people and how when I'm in the position to make decisions. Do I thwart any of the like nefarious stuff? And so this was grad school.
Starting point is 00:18:37 One Tree Hill was grad school where you just learn what not to do. So that every other set you work on can be pleasant. Yeah. That's good. Does this look familiar? Yeah. Sophia. You still have that. Oh, we're so sappy. Oh, no. you were the only person that believed that I was leaving and you bought me this rap gift and it's from 4-9 and if the episode aired on May 18th
Starting point is 00:19:14 you know like the turnaround was pretty quick on our show and I never took it out of the box I kept everything just like as it's like a time capsule And we have so many cards like this Where we acknowledge shit that was really bad And you put in it You gave me this ring Like this is Peyton's like wedding baby gift
Starting point is 00:19:47 And it says a 1920s piece perfect for Paris And you were the only person that was like Yeah fucking go And, you know, having Moira say it was really important. And having you believe it was really important. But in 15 years, I've kept this exactly as is. And it was a bad time. And you did something really nice in that moment.
Starting point is 00:20:17 And I've moved houses eight million times. And this has just always stayed in the drug. next to my bed. It doesn't matter how many houses we've lived in. It's just, it's been there. And it means a lot. And it will stay there. And I'll take it out in Paris. I'll take it for a whirl at some point. We just got to go to Paris. Let's go. Yeah. And I've had, like, Gus has asked, he's like, why don't you take it out of, why don't you untape the box from the envelope? And I'm like, no, this is how it was in my trailer. This is how it's going to stay. it'll stay that way for another 15 years that's how it's supposed to be it was a walking into my
Starting point is 00:21:01 trailer and getting that was a big deal it's a weird thing you know and I guess I guess it really does connect to what we were talking about earlier like the the love stories on our show the the length of female friendships, you know, and how those things we were able to, we were fortunate enough to portray really great ones on screen. And I think they've, they've mirrored, you know, and bled into our real lives. And not just with us, you know, the three of us, but like, like that scene that you and I had, Hillary, with the baby, like, Nia and I have done that. you know like her godson her son is my godson we always joke that he's our baby you know nia's now ex-husband who you know we love and at the end of the day like i i celebrate people
Starting point is 00:22:04 when they leave the thing that doesn't work and i really celebrate when they figure out how to co-parent because they realize they're better friends than partners like and you know patrick teases me and he's like well you two always talking about how he was always your baby he's like like he's like I always said you know my wife had a wife before she was my wife we just like cackle about it and it's like I know how meaningful it was to do that scene with you then and it's so wild to see how it mirrors our friendship now and my friendships with other women yeah you know like we're obviously not there on the show yet but it's like joy we did it in season eight like you had a baby in real life like it's so
Starting point is 00:22:48 It's weird from this perspective to watch scenes like that and know how real they've become. Yeah. Because they weren't real yet, but they felt it. And now they, it's like we manifested it or something. It's weird to practice it at 25, 26, and then have it happen 10 years later. Yeah. But I will say one of the things and like seeing that, you know, the box is still taped to your card. It's like Peyton's death box.
Starting point is 00:23:17 I'm a hoarder, you guys. No. But it's like one of the things that it really makes me realize is like I had to learn certain lessons about how to really love. You know, you learn it when you get your heartbroken and you learn it when wonderful things happen. And there was, there was, this was like a double experience. you know, I was heartbroken that you were going to leave.
Starting point is 00:23:51 And I understood why everyone was like, no, they'll work it out over the summer. And she'll be back. And I was like, no, she won't. Like, I want to believe that, but like I know she's not coming back. I want to think she will, but I know she won't. And there was something really, it was like a, it was a real early experience in duality for me of saying, I love you so much that I can't imagine doing this without you,
Starting point is 00:24:20 but all I want is for you to go be happy. Like, go to Paris. You know? And then fucking Jeffrey took you to New Mexico. Who knew? Oh, my God. Fucking Albuquerque. It's not Paris, but how about Albuquerque?
Starting point is 00:24:37 I was going to Albuquerque while this episode aired. Yeah. And so I remember, like, the internet being like, and just sitting in the desert being like, oh, things are even weirder than they were a month ago. Here's the thing. It's like they say in our line of work, you know, they're like, well, if an actor wants to book a job, just plan a vacation.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Like the minute you have other plans, you'll get work. And it's like the adage, you know, we make plans and God laughs. Like, y'all. If any single human being told me what my life would be today, like, you were supposed to go to Paris and you wound up in Albuquerque. I was convinced that I was going to get over this, like, wild heartbreak and betrayal by, like, I don't know, meeting some tall, dark, handsome Italian man and leaving America. And I fell in love with a woman from Florida.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Yeah, you did. Yeah, you did. Literally whatever you think your life is going to be. It just, it isn't it. It just isn't it. Yep. It's better. I like a sneak attack.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Albuquerque was better for you than Paris, honey. Yeah. Every day, I'm just like, oh, Albuquerque, you magical land of enchantment. Surprises. I like a surprise. And so this whole experience of going through this and, like, guys, what we just did is weird. Like, we literally talked through the trauma of our 20s week by week. to an audience of millions.
Starting point is 00:26:16 And I don't know anyone else that has kind of this video journal at hand to go back and examine 15 years later. But to go through week by week and think about what was going on in our personal lives and what was going on professionally. That is a singular experience that I wish everybody got to have, but it's pretty rare. and so it's the closure feels cool and yeah I don't I think I can walk away with the narrative of Lucas and Peyton and feel so good about it in a way that I wasn't allowed to for a long time yeah and that's my surprise in my 40s who knew that you know doing all of this would lead to being real arrogant about how fantastic we are. Oh, God, the best act.
Starting point is 00:27:14 So when I was in Albuquerque with Jeffrey, I was so irritated with everything involved with the show. And we were at a bar, which was rare for us anyway. And he said something about work. He's like, so do you ever want to act again? And I was like, no, I'm done. I'm retired. He's like, how can you retire?
Starting point is 00:27:34 And I said, because I'm good. And I don't need to prove anything else. And he was horrified. He was like, what just came out of your mouth? Because he wasn't used to anybody being like, no, I'm good. I'm good. Yeah. And I didn't even really mean it.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I think I wanted to be shocking in that moment. And I was. But I can look back at a 20 to 26 year old version of myself and know that I did my best work and under, like, duress. and that from that we have this whole family with all the Rivercourt boys with all of the people that played our parents with the guest stars that would come on
Starting point is 00:28:15 that we'd see once and never see again with the extras and the basketball players and the shop owners in town and our crew and literally was in my car two days ago and that song Miss New Booty came on the radio and that was me and Steve Allen's jail we would yell at each other across the stage new booty
Starting point is 00:28:34 and I took a picture of my radio and sent it to him and he was like sis that's the jam so yeah I got new booty out of this deal that's epic it may look different it may look different
Starting point is 00:28:53 but native culture is very alive my name is Nicole Garcia and on Burn Sage Burn Bridges we aim to explore that culture It was a huge honor to become a television writer because it does feel oddly, like, very traditional. It feels like Bob Dylan going electric, that this is something we've been doing for the kinds of years. You carry with you a sense of purpose and confidence. That's Sierra Taylor Ornellis, who with Rutherford Falls became the first native showrunner in television history.
Starting point is 00:29:22 On the podcast, Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, we explore her story, along with other native stories, such as the creation of the first Native Comic-Con or the importance of reservation basketball. Every day, Native people are striving to keep traditions alive while navigating the modern world, influencing and bringing our culture into the mainstream. Listen to Burn Sage Burn Bridges on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:29:49 So we have a question We have a question from someone named Alexandra And she said Would your characters still be in Tree Hill today Would Peyton have moved back? Yeah, a hundred percent Definitely
Starting point is 00:30:12 I mean after Nathan and Haley went all over the world for NBA Yeah, that's what I was going to say I wonder how that would affect you guys. Came back home. Of course they did. Yeah. I think you have to.
Starting point is 00:30:27 You always come back home. I mean, I literally, before we started taping this episode, was talking to Elena, who is our assistant and lives in my hometown in Loudoun County, Virginia. And we were talking about Leesburg, Virginia, and how at some point I need to move back home. I think there's always that sense of longing for what made you. and so I have that feeling about Virginia I have that feeling about Wilmington I have that feeling about Rhinebeck where we are now because one year after we finished this episode
Starting point is 00:31:00 I was living Whitey's best life in a log cabin in the middle of the woods with animals That's incredible That longing always stays It's romantic Well and I also think I don't know
Starting point is 00:31:18 I think sometimes people move somewhere and finally find that feeling of home they've always been looking for. But I think if I really put myself in the headspace of our characters, and I think about how important it was for all of us to make that pilgrimage home when we did the time jump for season five, you know, we are women, like we are people who wanted to be back home. We fought to go back home. And so, yeah, I do, Alexandra, I do think we would still be there. I love it. What is our honorable mention? I mean, Barry was great to see Barry back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:59 I loved the moment of Karen and Lucas back on the steps of their house where the show started. Oh, where it all started. It was so great. Yeah. It felt like it felt like the closing of a. loop. Yeah. And it was really special to watch that.
Starting point is 00:32:20 Just those two sitting on the front porch was like, oh, that's nostalgia. As a boy mom, Lucas doing his dorky magic trick to try and impress his mommy on the steps of his house. It's absolutely something my son would do in the midst of like a meaningful conversation. Like, look what I can do. And I wasn't Chad really into magic? the time. Well, but I was like, I was like, why is there a magic trick happening? And I went, oh, right. I, that, that felt so real to me. That's how boys are with their mommies.
Starting point is 00:32:56 And it was so funny. And I just, yeah, I loved the Karen, who couldn't be bothered to come home for the wedding, was like, well, she's going to die. Okay, I guess I'll get there six hours later. So interesting. I guess, I guess maybe that's, why we had skills at the wedding but we got karen at the birth and apparently they can't be in the same episode well you know moiru was just like oh yeah you know you need me back for the end how much you're gonna pay me well i don't know if she was but i hope she was like that i sure hope so she deserved i hope she did i'm also going to tell your actress to leave that's right pick one pick one episode what do you want me for the wedding or the finale yeah the finale was yeah
Starting point is 00:33:42 Karen gets all my honorable mentions forever and ever. Oh, you know what gets my honorable mention, actually? The way they built that set for Julian's movie. Oh, my God, the makeout. Oh, my God, books, I love you. How did we miss this? I know we'd even talk about it. How did we miss this?
Starting point is 00:33:59 But that's my honorable mention because there really is this feeling of like all this wish fulfillment. It's very, everything feels a bit like a movie. and especially like that giant across the river shot of Lucas and Peyton and the car. And I loved the sort of inception twist of being in a movie for one of the love stories. Because everything, Charlotte felt really big and the river felt really big. And then this set and all the lights coming on felt really big. I wonder if it was hard for them to light that because they're so used to lighting sets to look real.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Yeah. How do you light a set? purposely to look bad like a set. To look like a set. I mean, it didn't look bad, but like it, you know. No, it was beautiful, but like, you know, you had to, you had to frame it to where you could actually see that the backdrop was a backdrop. But they did.
Starting point is 00:34:51 They built a park. They brought in all those trees. They brought in that beautiful city skyline that they had to light up from the other side. Yeah. And like they literally did this whole massive setup for like, I don't know, a quarter of a page scene. But no, I'm horrified that we didn't talk about. this, the tight shot of Brooke Davis finally looking up and saying, I love you. I didn't know how
Starting point is 00:35:20 hungry I was to see that until we got it. And then it was like, oh my God, we haven't seen this in years. Years. Yeah. Years. That was wild. Such a great payoff. So great. It made me so happy. And it was a really interesting thing to be like, oh, wow. She has not said that since high school. Yeah. Whoa. She's held on to that one. It really held onto it.
Starting point is 00:35:48 And isn't it wild that her mom needed to say, I almost broke you with my inability to open my heart. And like, in a way, I think Brooke had to accept that if she didn't open hers, she'd just be repeating history. But, yeah, lighting department. It was gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous performance, gorgeous scene. I love it. I loved it, too. It was very sweet. I really wish I'd kept that dress.
Starting point is 00:36:20 It was great. It was a great dress. And those necklaces were really pretty. The whole thing was really good, and I was like, damn, I don't think those made their way home with me, sadly. Dang! Dang! Are we spinning a wheel? You want to spin?
Starting point is 00:36:36 I want to spin a wheel. This is. are most likely to Oh Most likely to accidentally start a fire In the house Debb Who did you say Deb?
