Starting point is 00:01:36 Oh, all right. So say stuff then. I will. You're in a rush to say it, say it. Many people have said they love me. You don't know what you're talking about. I know love, all right? I didn't get it from mom and dad, so I have sought it from other people my whole life. I've never been around anyone that says, I love you to Greg. It's because it's very private, not even from his wife. People are usually crying of how much they, it's just like, it's built up in them, and they have to, like, get it out.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Right. I love you so much. Sure. Usually involves letters, money. They do a lot of, they really go out of their way. One person built a little statue of me that was a key chain. This is all evidence of how great of a liar you are. No.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Excellent. No, no, no, no. Almost like sociable. I'm not a sociopath. You know, a sociopath that the people obsessed with me who love me and or the sociopath. So you should take that back right now. I'm not going to
Starting point is 00:02:34 take it back. I'm not going to take it back. You can just keep on digging yourself into a hole claiming that people love you. Full of heart. I'll let you do it on your own. Marchmallow love. What is that? It's like does smores? It's a heart shaped. It's a heart shaped marshmallow and that's it.
Starting point is 00:02:52 We get out. See? And you claim. that you love chocolate. They drop the chocolate and you bring in marshmallows to love, which is why I know this is all a lie. You're making it all up. You bring in marshmallows. You don't even bring in chocolate. He doesn't even say smores. He's just this marshmallow love. It's like a huge mar. No, nobody wants that. You're going to end up teaching children. Nobody wants it. I'm not. I would never. Oh my gosh, you guys. I taught improv to
Starting point is 00:03:19 elementary school kids. Like this is probably six, seven years ago. And after school thing, I was the improv teacher. I did it three times and I quit. I was like, this is the worst. It was terrible. I hated it. The kids would, it was the worst. It was the worst.
Starting point is 00:03:39 It was so bad. I just was like the kids were chaotic and they would, it would, I, nope, can't do it. It's kind of weird to teach kids to have fun by disciplining them. Can't do it. Cannot do it. You should have taught them dramatic improv. Nope. Nope.
Starting point is 00:03:54 we just nope well I mean what do you think about the show let me give you pointers yeah sure point out talking points since this was like a movie that we watched it was a lot it was a lot of high school musical okay so um let's start with Ricky and Gina now that their love has been proclaimed to the mom and that it seems like Ricky is determined to like get his life on track yes do you feel like their romance is better than him and nini yes i actually but it's only because he has grown into not into like letting her go and do her own thing and be a big star because we all know he had a problem and like nini got popped or he had an issue and the same thing happened when jina got popper got the role he had kind of an issue went off the rails and then the scene
Starting point is 00:04:48 with him and e j cemented how he like he runs away from everything And that's why that was like Emmy Award winning scene. It was such good writing. And like Ricky finally was like vulnerable. And E.J. was really just telling him the truth. And for that information come from E.J. I think was just really perfect writing because E.J. has completely been in Ricky's shoes exactly where he was.
Starting point is 00:05:13 So many times. So many times. And I mean, that was such a great scene. Along with like the scene with Biggie and the, why do I keep for you? getting her name the redhead name anyway with them discussing like oh is this the most beautiful ashlyn thank you the most beautiful breakup that has ever been had and it's like yes then both coming out to each other is really sweet and I love that he was the one that's convincing her to make the big like grand romantic gesture but obviously we haven't gotten there yet Madison answers the phone
Starting point is 00:05:48 but we may have missed that because at camp they still were like we can be friends right So it's like that's just a piece of information that it's leaving us on a cliffhanger, which I like. The show does a good job of that. Does your homophobia get in the way of enjoying the queer love? I am by, so no. Okay, okay, good or no. Yeah. Buy origin tales.
Starting point is 00:06:16 This must be a thing that kids actually go through them. Yeah, probably. Coming out as bisexual. Right. I feel like it was like during COVID right wasn't there like a big thing like six years ago where people were coming out as bye and it was a huge thing get over yourself who's not by that's kind of how I feel I'm like come on everyone's a little bye everyone's like probably thought about like come on man like if there's just come on if you watch certain internet videos that you have to be 18 or older odds are your looking at both people genders true true so truth to that everyone's a little bye everyone's a little bit bye i agree so like yeah yep so anyway a lot of great bye love you cool with uh sab being forgiven
Starting point is 00:07:11 i am because the way okay listen they're really young like you can make so young is this first like He first dated a girl and he's in his first gay relationship. And then, of course, he hangs out with someone that he feels like close to. And something happens and they both regret it. It's kind of a teenage thing. Sorry, not sorry. It just, it happens. And him, them both coming out telling the truth instead of, they did hide it for a while, like through the summer.
Starting point is 00:07:42 But then both making the decision to both come out and tell the truth. And it's not like they were having a secret affair. It was a one-time thing. They just felt really guilty about it. and him coming back being like listen I made a mistake they're really young they make mistakes I like it would be different if he was like a 40 year old man we're like yeah don't go and hang out with the gay guy and go to the movies and make out with him come on but what about the I'd be like more concerned about the emotional attachment what led to the kiss is what would
Starting point is 00:08:12 right and like the way that I agree like the way that he was saying it made it seem like a joke like he reached for the nachos they read through the popcorn like as though their hands touched, they looked at each other and they were like, maybe we'll just kiss. That's how I assume it would happen. I wish they would have done like a reenactment, but they didn't. And then they probably were like, wait, sorry, no, no, what are we doing?
Starting point is 00:08:35 That's probably what it was. What do you think about these high school musical actors giving a quarter of their salaries? Which I'm sure is not even like a lot of money. It is Disney too much. It is so Disney writing. Yeah. It is like Disney wrote that. Nobody would ever do that. No. Who would do that? No.
Starting point is 00:08:50 These guys aren't, like, huge paid actors either. They literally need to book jobs to make a living. Yeah, their revenue at this point is probably 89 cents. Like, come on. Like, they don't have that money from the high school musical anymore. There's no way. No, there's not. A quarter of their salary.
Starting point is 00:09:08 But it's adorable. It's adorable. Yeah. It saved it. It saved it. It saved it. And I was really glad that I called that it was Emmy, because that makes a lot of sense for her. sorry for her to be singing that song which I loved at the end and uh I mean just the
Starting point is 00:09:28 lyrics don't die it's perfect yeah that's very true it's so good so how about and Courtney's gonna be on the roulette yeah yeah how do you feel about Courtney being amongst you sound like you were talking about because she's black that she should go there is what I was like because it's culturally she's going to have a larger system of people that all understand what she has gone through probably a lot of racism we didn't see it in this but i'm sure that it's happened because people are a-holes so it's like when you that's what we always see is to assume that if you see a black person that they must have gone through racism i don't know no it's not it's it's it's being like pc it's like i'm making the right
Starting point is 00:10:17 assumption that their life is hard and harder period like so being around people who can understand that and it's not all bad it's just like good stuff they're obviously making a point when we didn't see one white person at that at that school like come on I'm just calling it out but do you think you make me look like an a hole you know one like you're around a little kid and and then if you really treat them like a little kid they don't like being treated like a little kid yes so are you telling me that when you're around a black person you're like oh i should treat them like they've dealt with all this stuff yeah i completely treat aaron completely differently in every reaction i walk in and i'm like oh my god hey sit down
Starting point is 00:10:59 hello aaron how are you today well yeah i've seen it in person yeah it is weird so dumb so dumb um but no that was great and beautiful that's cool that's cool that's cool that going to go there it's good school yeah and she's going to be part of the loose relax and uh and uh okay and miss jenn and do you think benny and jenn are going to get together yes finally benny and the jens finally like because that's what we were waiting for it that's what i called like last oh my god when they when she broke up with the dad we were like oh my god then it leaves the opening for benny when we didn't know that he was coming back then he was i can't wait because you could see as she walked
Starting point is 00:11:47 up to him and he was like apologizing to her with the tears in her eyes like they obviously have chemistry and i can't wait to see what happened yeah kiss i'm gonna miss the e j man my best part j was the best part well i think we talked about everything we need to talk about we talked we covered it all we love you guys so much leave a like leave a comment share this video we only have two more episodes left so the next video is going to be the end of our high school musical journey i guess tell us what we should move on to next i don't know maybe he already has a plan but honestly who cares what he thinks or wants to do like i'm starting my band he's doing a band so we won't be doing videos anymore mel and the gibson's um wow wow roxy on base andrew i mean hit one note
Starting point is 00:12:34 hit one note hit one note hit one note any note right now one note hit it okay all that was it yeah You hit one note. You can't hit a note. Oh, my God. What are you trying to do? Break glass? Oh, my gosh. We got to get out of here. I'm tired. My neck hurts so bad, y'all. Like, seriously, I was like, I've been dying. Like, should I go to the ER and be like, do I have mono?
