This is a headgum podcast.
Hello, and welcome to another edition of Melro to Warno,
a We Hate Movies quarantine side show
wherein we talk about an episode of Melrose Place
One Week and an episode of Beverly Hills, 9-0-2-0
The Other Week. Welcome to the other week.
We're talking about Beverly Hills, Other Week, Other Week, Other Week, Other Week.
We are talking about Beverly Hills, 9-0, a fling in Palm Spring,
original air date February the 22nd, 1991,
a real President's Day affair.
I am joined with only two of my co-host,
because the third one is missing.
No, he's not.
He's busy.
I am joined by Eric Siska.
Howdy, partner.
And Andrew Jupin.
Yo!
Yeah, we are missing Chris this week,
but thankfully,
not a lot of Jim Walsh anyway.
You know, you want Chris on the Jim Walsh heavy episodes.
I think also, though,
it's just good for that guy
to take a day off, man.
You know what I mean?
Like that fucking blood pressure,
who take a deep breath,
go for a walk.
Maybe take a bath.
Wrap a hot towel around your home.
Oh, nice, dude.
This is a President's Day weekend affair.
What are we talking? Can we just address this first?
Why President's Day weekend?
Because California's got good weather all year round, right?
So every week, every long weekend, I guess, is a party weekend.
Just any fucking excuse, dude, any fucking excuse with these people.
And I guess maybe it's a weekend wherein tourists are less likely to be around kind of a thing, possibly?
Does that make any sense to you?
Yeah, maybe. I don't know.
You think with the holiday weekend, though, would be busier because people have the time off and whatnot.
For sure. Yeah. So this is the idea is all the kids are going to go to Palm Springs to celebrate just hanging out and blah, blah, blah, and things go awry.
We open on finally some necking in this show. Hello, it's been a couple weeks.
Some world-class necking.
The necking here is awesome. The necking.
by the way are Dylan and Brenda
who are doing the necking. When are they going to get
naked is what at least
Dylan's thinking. Oh Dylan.
Dylan is kind of fed up
with it is what's happening in this episode.
Man Brenda, I haven't even been jacking
it. I feel like a proud boy,
Bryn. You want me to be a proud boy?
Nobody likes a racist,
Bren. You know, I have to say
great thing about this opening and I don't know if this
is the score here
actually or if it's just some
fake filler music, because it's not
pop, it's not like a pop song kind
of filler, but like this score, it's
like them, they're on a hill, it's
nighttime, they're like under a tree making
out, it had a real
Twin Peaks vibe right
at the start. Yeah, you just,
it is, you kind of expect like an old
lady to like run and scare them
kind of a thing. Something of a haunting synth
music, you know. There's the fucking
old witch from Donnie Darko to
fucking go out the middle of the road. Oh, this is
what it is. There's like a, there's an interdimensional
portal in the woods, much like Twin Peaks, but it goes to Melrose Place.
And that's where they followed Jake through that one time.
Dude, it's like a shortcut in Mario, brother.
Jake, the Riverboat Strangler, is like the bob of both of these dimensions.
Can I say speaking of the Riverboat Strangler really quickly?
How's Sandy?
I saw on Twitter something I thought was very interesting.
And I think it is just a testament to the popularity of this show.
that we are winding down this month
but will return at some point on Patreon
where was I going with this?
Oh man, I can't believe
I lost my whole train of thought.
Oh yeah, I saw somebody
had their Twitter handle
turned to Riverboat Strangler.
I really appreciate
whoever you are.
It is sweeping the nation.
This is actually like
just a great, I mean, like Dylan, by the way,
is one of my favorite lines of the episode
is like, I'm dying here, Bren.
Yeah.
my balls are going to explode right the blue balls myth right right he does have I mean like this is this episode really does take advantage of A the chemistry between the entire cast but specifically in certain episodes in certain bits the chemistry between him and uh shannon doherty is really good especially at the end bit there like they they play off each other really well uh and it does you know it's a high school thing he wants to have sex she's not exactly ready she's like hey um he's like well he's like well
He's like, he's really trying to, you know, get a good timetable going here.
He's like, all right, all right, fine.
Not now.
How about next week?
And she's like, well, actually, next weekend I'm going to Palm Springs and Kelly and Donnie.
He's like, Kelly and Donna.
Dude, Luke Perry delivering those lines like Dylan is trying to hold back fucking vomit was great.
It's just, all right.
Kelly, I can understand.
She's hot in her own right.
But honestly, Donna Bren, really?
I don't know how, like, Bren got this past Jim and Cindy Walsh.
Yeah, but that's the thing.
So Dylan is a schemer.
He's like, okay, cool.
How about you go to Palm Springs with Donna and Kelly?
And I show up.
I get a hotel.
Boom, we're banging in the noon time.
And here's the thing, Dylan McKay, as much as I love you, dude.
He does not play this correctly because the move is, hey, Bren, I'll go up.
Yes, I'll get the suite.
And then we can hang sometimes, but we can also just hang as a group of friends.
His whole thing is like, I'll rent that suite, and then you can come and we'll have three days together, and you won't see your friends.
And I think that's, that sets us off on a bad turn here.
Yeah, like, just come over, we'll put on a movie, just and see what happens.
It's a little bit of a fuck vacation, right?
Exactly.
Yeah, he's like, all right, you'll go, we'll get the lubricate, I'll bring condoms.
You're just getting a little too much, dude.
The only time we leave the sweet, Bren, is if someone needs to refill the ice bucket.
It'll be like I'm surfing, but inside of you.
Oh, my God.
Hang ten, Jude.
Catching a wave, Bren.
Oh, my God.
It's getting grosser by the joke.
Mahalo, my friend.
I'll put on this wetsuit.
It's a condom.
Good news is all these people are well into their 30s.
It's all fine.
Yeah, totally.
Nothing gross here.
Um, we cut it, we cut to the Walsh household, um, you know, and there is, there is like a line to pay service to what Eric's talking about because, yeah, Jim and Cindy are real fucking ballbusters, especially with their daughter who they dislike much more than their son. Uh, they're just like, I can't believe we, we agreed to this. There's going to be no parents. It's like, yeah. I don't know. It seems kind of weird. And I guess they left out the detail that it's supposed to be Steve Sanders's like family's house. Oh, right. And what I, I,
I think I missed that line.
I mean, we'll get to it when we get to it.
But, like, what was the deal there?
His mom fucked up, like, the weekends or something?
They're getting it fumigated.
Oh, man, what a bummer.
I guess there was a President's Day sale.
Also, though, like, you know, I mean, like, Brenda, again, you got to play this right.
Oh, no, we're going to go to Steve Sanders place.
Steve Sanders, who's going to be there?
Well, his mom will be there, of course.
And then we'll just, there's a cool rumpus room and there's a fucking foosball table.
Meanwhile, you're doing blow in the bathroom.
Well, the problem, though, is you've got to be careful with saying shit, like, the mom or the dad or whomever is going to be present because then it's like, cool.
So when you get to the house, have that person call me.
And then he got Steve Sanders doing an impression of his mother on the telephone.
That might be fun to watch.
Ooh, I'm Mrs. Sanders.
The kids are having a great time.
Bye now.
Actually, I could do Mrs. Sanders.
Steve couldn't hurt a fly.
Couldn't her to fly.
Apparently she's a celebrity, so they might know what her voice sounds.
Oh, fuck. See, yeah, you're double fucking yourself.
No, you just get old episodes from that TV show she was on.
A lot of playing fast forward and rewind.
Yeah, get two VCRs and edit together a fucking ransom note type of thing.
Hello, Mr. Walsh, your children are fine.
Your kids are the best kids, certainly better than my own Stephen.
It cuts to static sound for a second
In between those cuts
An old commercial accidentally makes its way
Liberty Medical
Uncurned
A reverse mortgages
Oh Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ
So Brandon shows up
He wants he wants dad to buy him a car
And he's like hey man look
I work my ass off at this place
I can't even go to Palm Springs
because Nat's sister is sick
and I have to like manage the
Peach Pit for a whole weekend.
Here's a question about the Peach Pit.
Are the only two people that serve food
there, Nat and Brandon?
It seems that way.
Because there's like some cooks and whatnot,
but as far as other servers,
I think that's it.
I think you're right.
And there's no,
and Nat is barely in this episode
to the point of which I was asking,
where's Nat?
Nat is not in this episode.
He's not in it at all.
Not in it at all.
My God, what is going on?
Where is he?
If I'm Joe Etata and I'm like just sitting around like
I need me last week and I put on my TV
and they're in the peach pit I'm like oh fuck
and we're in the peach pit for a long time too
and then like Joey Tatta's going to be fucking waiting for the script
or it's like that's selling the joint retiring
selling the joint to Brandon like I can't believe he's not in it
I watched this last night in a drunken haze
and it was a lot of fun but like I thought he was in it
for like a half a second but I guess I'm wrong
no he's not yeah he's not
Yeah, I guess they kind of blow their guest star budget on the grandparents
and then all the other kids that kind of show up.
Sure, and you know what?
Joe E. Tata, man, he does not come cheap.
I mean, the Peach Pit is the Tata domain.
I'm sorry, Brandon.
Find something else to do this weekend.
I just love the idea of the Tata domain.
By the way, I think the Tata domain is the name of a fucking Vegas strip club.
Yep.
Oh, I love you.
Come out to the Tata Domain.
mean there's a buffet or some shit
that's the commercial by the way that
oh yeah for Vegas man do you think people
are ever going to eat at buffets again
oh my god I can't imagine can't
that industry's done no way
no way sorry buffet industry
I feel like I got sick of it like
10 years ago like I swore
it off I feel like
I would never never touch that shit
yeah I mean I can't even tell you the last time I've
been to a buffet honestly
yeah I cannot
I think, no, you know, I went to, we were in Pennsylvania once and like, no, yeah, we didn't even go in because it was so creepy.
It was just like, oh, we were camping, like, oh, let's go to this crazy buffet in Germantown or some crazy shit.
And there was like a line around the block of terrifying people.
Like, we're not going in there.
Oh, wait, you know, fucking Pennsylvania German food buffet?
Yeah, thank you.
Ooh, I might go to that.
So, Brandon's like, hey, I want this super expensive car because all my friends.
having to work really, really hard.
And Jim Walsh said, like, yeah, but Dylan's dad bought him a Porsche.
Not the greatest example.
Not the, it is like, yeah, Dylan's dad's being indicted.
Yeah, he's facing a grand jury indictment.
It's such a good moment for Jim Walsh to tell his kid that his friend is a piece of shit.
And what also, like, Brandon is saying, like, oh, the car will appreciate in value?
I don't know about that, dude.
Not if you're driving it.
Yeah, what are you talking about?
if it's a classic car, sure,
but that means you have to put it under a fucking wraps
and just keep it in a cellar somewhere.
You just have to wipe it with a diaper, you know?
And then the only time you fucking take it out
is, you know, when you're going to some dumb car show
in the parking lot of an ice cream parlor.
Exactly.
The thing is, yeah, you buy a car,
the instant you buy a car, you're losing money by the day.
That's how that works.
And he's so dumb right here
because it's like you're working hard
and your dad does have a good job
and Jim Walsh
at the end of the episode
agrees to help him out or something
but like
just split the difference
you don't need a fucking lemon
like your last car
but you don't need a classic car
you're 17 years old
get like a fucking you know
a cool looking Hyundai
you know what I mean
like totally
Toyota Carolla
yeah we loved those in the 90s
so but it was it was the 90s
we all love vintage chic
this is all like fucking James Dean fucking J. Owing, this entire series.
So, yeah, you need the classic car to go with your fucking bowling shirt and whatever else is going on.
J-O-ing.
Oh, that's a jerk-offing.
Right, okay.
Oh, jerk-offing.
I died of a J-O.
So we cut to school and Steve's at a piss-poor mood because of the fumigation thing.
And like Scott, oh, man, here it comes.
God damn it.
Damn it. Scott and David are like, oh, man, we're going to Magic Mount.
It's got to be a great weekend, President's Day.
And, like, David's like, I'm so excited for girls, this, that.
The other thing, and Scott's like, yeah, but the roller coasters.
You know, and this is, it's an unfortunate thing in adolescence, right?
It's like not everybody needs to be interested in, like, dating and whatever and, you know,
hooking up, like, at the same time.
Like, people aren't at the same pace.
And it just sucks because, like, here's Scott, man.
Scott likes computer technology and going on rollercoaster.
He likes designing nightclubs.
I mean, he's a kid.
I mean, this is like freshman of high school.
Like, I mean, I think David is the one that's being crazed sexual deviant and is going way above and beyond.
David thinks he needs to prove so much.
And Scott's just like, whatever, dude, man.
I'm in a nightclub in my head.
you're absolutely correct
but the thing about it is like
I mean it's so
fucking crushing David
literally just like leaves him in the hallway
and is like maybe we can do that
another time it is see you later
but the coupon the coupons
only for this weekend
oh is that what he's saying yes
oh yeah the Steve goes by and he's like
I'm not in the move for your shit today David Silver
you know I don't want to talk to any Jewish people at all
and you're like whoa Steve but then he doesn't say that
he does say though that he says I'm
never in the mood for you, David.
He's like, I'm not in the mood for you today, David.
My mom canceled our Palm Springs weekend because of the fumigation thing.
And then David, I don't think he exactly knows what he's doing, but he's just like,
oh, yeah, I love Palm Springs.
My grandparents have this house.
They're never there.
And Steve's like, say.
And here's the thing.
Like, when you get to see this house, when you get to see the amount of cars we're
taking to Palm Springs, Scott can clearly go.
That's what I was getting at, dude.
really easy to be like, okay,
hey, it's my house. And it's also
David Silver's deal. Like, you know what I mean? Like...
Yeah. Yeah, my house, my fucking
little Dungeons and Dragons friends can come
to. Well, David's trying to, like,
jump up the social ladder and having Scott
there might drag him down. Plus, like, he
wants babes and Scott might scare them
off, I guess, part of the idea. Well, the
house is so big, you lock him upstairs with a
fucking Super Nintendo. You're good to go.
This fucking house, and we'll get to it because
the grandparents are there. But like, call
ahead. And if no one answers,
you're in the clear.
Exactly.
Hey, David,
they've got Mario paint up here.
That's great, Scott.
K' clunk.
Good job being creative.
Lock.
Hey, David, I'm hungry.
I can't breathe up here.
But this is the beginning of the cleaving,
wherein he cleaves himself away from Scott into,
you know, with Kelly, Steve, and Dylan, the whole.
the whole sexy gang and it's like you could kind of maybe make that inroad for your buddy scott
he's got some stuff you know brandon doesn't hate his guts necessarily you know there's no i mean
he's always been like seeming utilized dylan stood up from that time in the computer lab like it could
happen and like oh it is just harper and the way that they film it too is like you know steve and
like has his arm around david and they're walking away and the guy playing scott is just in the
background and then like the group of kids in the hallway like you know cover him up like
till you can't see him anymore and he's gone from the episode the face uh douglas emerson
is making is he's counting all the money he's going to lose when he's written out of the show
which the clock starts right here like right this second did he ever do anything after this
at all i think he joined the military or something yeah yeah he joined the air force oh my god
He gets shot in the face on this show.
By his own hand.
And then he goes on to shoot people.
That's it, man. Vengeance.
Vengeance is his.
So, Steve, you're saying, you know, do they continue the whole thing of, like, David will, like, repeatedly be a bad friend to Scott until he accidentally commits suicide?
That is kind of the thing.
It's, like, it's a big thing of, like, I want to hang out with these people because they're so cool.
And Scott, you're such a geek.
And, you know, just keep leaving Scott in the dust.
all the time while Scott's like, oh, man.
And so is the accidental suicide, like, because he's trying to look cool in front of David?
We will get there eventually, probably on Patreon, I promise you guys, I promise you guys.
I just, oh, poor Scott, man.
He's just getting such a raw deal.
So, any ways, now Steve's like, hey, cool, we'll go to David Silver's place.
There's a great scene where Donna, Kelly, and Brenda are like, it's going to be great this weekend,
and Donna's got all these clothes.
They're like, what the fuck, it's three days?
She's like, well, you got to dress different for guys in high school,
got a dress different for guys in college, grad school guys, dropout guys.
Yeah, totally.
And they're all like, you know what, Donna, that's the smartest thing you've ever said.
It's like this idea that she's like Clark Kent or something.
And she's like, he's a dropout guy, gets to a phone booth that puts on that specific uniform.
You know who could bang a college dropout?
Donna.
You know, it might be fun to have Donna.
say something smart about her wardrobe.
It reminded me of the fucking great gag on Seinfeld
when George and Jerry are going to L.A.
Because Jerry's going to do the Tonight Show.
And George comes in with all of the luggage.
And he's talking about how he dresses for like the mood that he's in.
And it's like, so what is this mood?
And he goes, morning missed.
I got to say that's me when I go on vacation, man.
I just want some, I want options.
I definitely want options.
Yeah.
I mean, that's a fire fit from Costanza there.
like a little teal, I think, was in play.
It was pretty great.
You know, and I totally support that.
I know, Steve, you are a big overpacker,
but, you know, here's the thing.
You just need the one bathing suit, dude.
That's a good point.
So we wind up just going to Palm Springs.
Brandon doesn't go.
We're on the road.
We've got some cool B-roll of kids at Palm Springs, it seems.
Oh, man, this stuff is all great.
And I was like, man, is this what happens to Palm Springs?
springs during times like this because it looks like spring break it's fucking crazy because it's like
february right yeah yeah i mean it's outstanding i mean i think this episode is part of that
cultural narrative we all know and cherish that the perception of california from people from outside
of california is it's a non-stop party and we get that on the streets of palm springs
there's like these colorful jeeps you know people with no clothing on
people just drink it at the street kind of a thing i do
I mean, if I was, I mean, David Silver bringing this camera.
If I'm Kelly Taylor, I am triple check in the bathroom all the time.
I'm showering, I'm locking every, I'm propping something in front of the door.
Because here's the thing, dude.
You got to check for beyond cameras, man.
You've got to check for audio equipment.
And I'll tell you why.
David Silver is the kind of kid that would put some sort of audio device in a toilet tank.
And then listen to her, take a piss later.
Absolutely.
And also not three, and that's the thing, David, you want to be in with these people.
Stop fucking videographing these people.
You know what I mean?
Like stop breaking into slumber parties
and taking pictures, you fucking creep.
Here's the thing.
If he hadn't been like doing that
and like filming the fucking fashion show
and whatever, if this was like,
oh, it's a road trip.
I'm going to bring the camcorder.
It's way less creepy.
But the track record speaks for itself.
Our best idea was videotaping this crime spree.
We stopped for gas.
has this fucking hat he looks exactly like ice cube from NWA but a gross white version
oh my god he's got the curly hair yep coming out the back of it you know it's just barely on
his head the Raiders it's it's it's the style at the time but not for you Steve I was quite
shocked that these kids all agree to stop at a self-serve gas station by the way did not see that
coming Kelly actually does like express apprehension about spending a weekend with David
Silver which is nice I like that
we're keeping with the continuity there that he has been a creep indeed.
Yeah, because Steve says something about like, oh, you know,
we're going to have a good time this weekend, Kel,
and she's like, with David Silver, I don't think so.
Yeah, you know what?
Because he might film you taking a shit, Kelly Taylor.
Well, the weird thing is like kind of...
Scott, I got the Kelly tape.
It's a real splatter job.
Let's listen to it in the AV club.
Oh, my God.
Well, yeah, that's cool.
but I got this cool, I took my camera
and I recorded the Magic Mountain
mega coaster. I mean, I'll also
listen to a girl take a shit, but the
coaster was cool too.
Scott, that's not a camera. That's a gun.
Action, David.
Oh my God, he's got a gun!
No, so like, we stop in this gas.
Also, like, the weird thing, like,
I kind of don't understand
why Kelly would even hang out with
Steve. Like, I understand in the sense of, like, Brenda's best friend, Brenda's your best friend
or one of your best friends. Her twin brother is Brandon. We all hang out together. His good
friend is Steve. It makes a big group. But when Brandon's not there, what the fuck is Steve doing
here? Because I think it's a thing where it's like, you know what? Our relationship ended,
but we can have this, like, mature friendship with each other, even though we are indeed
supposed to be 17 years. Dude, he just needs to stop begging her for sex every episode. And
Exactly. Again, the track record speaks for itself because later in the episode when they like kind of have this nice moment with David's grandparents who are by far in a way, the greatest guest starts we have had on this show so far. They fucking kick ass in every way. They tell like some nice story and like Stephen Kelly kind of exchanged some looks. If it wasn't for the track record of every day at school, fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, fuck me. Maybe some sort of, you know, rekindling could have happened. But dude, it's just the damage.
just done Steve Sanders take your fucking curly ass mullet and get out of here so uh while we're stopping
for gas David meets this girl named Tuesday uh who you know and I the way she looks at him like
he's just like trying to get a snack from vending machine she looks at him and I really thought this
is going to go a different way because I don't remember this episode terribly well I was like oh
is she like gonna think that he's a mark kind of a thing I definitely thought and I think that was
just because of the car theft episode from a few weeks back that uh I
thought that was going to happen again.
Which is why, by the way, I appreciate that Brandon
is not involved in this whole party thing
because it's like, I've gotten that morality tale
with Brandon and not. Totally.
He's a fucking teetotaler. Get out of here.
Yeah. But also, we are conveniently
forgetting, again, in this episode, not
us, but the program,
the writers, actors, showrunners,
and the like, all forget that he had
that fucking drunk driving arrest.
Yeah, come on.
Like, you just have to keep hammering
that home for like the rest of the first season.
No, Steve, I can't go to Palm Springs.
My ankle brace let me go off.
Exactly.
Well, we just, because St. Brandon can't have any big skeletons in this closet.
So that happened, but no, it's fine now.
It's all fine to worry about it.
Yeah.
Yeah, so this girl kind of hits on him, and he's like, whoa, a girl.
And, like, I think earlier on, Steve kind of told him to play a cool.
So he is trying to play a cool here, as he says, a Johnny Depp vibe, which I kind of don't get.
But sure, like, I guess, like, aloof is the idea.
A Louve sort of uncaring, like too cool for the room kind of a thing.
He's basically telling him to neg her.
And he's like, oh, that totally worked.
So he comes back to Steve.
Well, not only that, Steve, the nagging, of course, but also dropping.
No, I'm from L.A., you know, Beverly Hills.
Oh, yeah, definitely.
I have money.
You just got to point it.
Oh, that's what I came in.
And it's Steve Sanders' car kind of a thing.
Yep.
So, you know, he goes back.
She's going to bring her friends over later.
we see it's in the background
it's incredible I took a picture of it for my
Twitter it is this
this bag of chip
Andrew did you see this I know Eric commented it on it
a bag of chips oh this bag of
Doritos I'm gonna
I'm gonna share it in the room here
okay yeah I gotta see this thing
while you're doing that Steve I wanted to say as
we're going to the gas station
one of my favorite contributions
to this show Extra Alert
Brenda or no it's so Brenda
at the same time is like at this
hotel lobby at one point
I'm getting a little ahead here.
It's fine.
But they,
she walks by these three drunk dudes in this lobby,
and it is three of the funniest extras you'll ever see in their life.
It's so funny.
All right.
So let me look.
I'm pulling this up.
Oh my God.
Look at that fucking Doritos bag is bigger than a child.
It's this girl.
I mean,
she's like a, you know,
a teenage girl at the gas station.
This bag is.
Look at this fucking bag.
It's wearable.
It's like the bag is the size of someone's torso,
like their entire part of their body.
It's two thirds of this woman.
body weight is this bag of Doritos.
I can't even believe it.
And I'm drooling over here over the chips, of course.
Absolutely.
Yeah, so that's great.
But yeah, so Brenda is going to go meet Dylan at this hotel.
She winds up going to the wrong hotel because Brenda has to do everything wrong.
And she's just like, oh, hey.
And the guy's like, are you sure it's the Desert Palm Hotel or is it the Palm Desert Hotel or the River Desert?
You know, all this like, it's kind of the same kind of iteration on it.
And she's like, oh, no.
And he's like, did you write it down?
And she's like, no.
And I lost my wallet.
He's like, I don't care.
This guy is incredible.
By the way, I'm going to crack my second tallboy of the episode.
Oh, good.
Excellent.
Good for you.
I'll take this moment to crack a beer as well while also saying, you know what?
The episode tries to play it like this concierge's being a little rude.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
But no way.
Like, Brenda, I'm sorry.
You're trying to take this big girl trip with your friends at this fucking fuckfest in Palm Springs.
Listen, if you're going to be fucking in the desert
You need your wallet
You need to write down the name of the hotel that you're staying
And this is inexcusable
It is
It's a great window all into the era
That we didn't have cell phones everywhere
Like she's completely stranded
Doesn't know where anyone is
Has no lifeline in terms of
You know maybe she's got a credit card
Through her parents or something
There's nothing that can save her now
Except for maybe Tom the Bellhop
Oh dude Tom the Bellhop
What is this serial killer? A wolf
and sheep's clothing if I've ever seen one.
He's just this guy.
She's like,
You can stay at my house.
I'll sleep on the fucking floor and I'll smell your feet.
Yeah, no thanks, dude.
Yeah, because he's like, oh, you're stranded.
That sounds too bad for you.
Why don't you come?
You can stay at my house.
And she's like,
You'd be perfect for my collection.
I need a brunette.
I've been missing a brunette.
By the way, this gentleman is,
The actor's name is David Gale.
Eric Siski, you'll appreciate this.
This gentleman responds in season four as another love interest for Brenda.
That's amazing.
His name is David Gale, huh?
Yes.
So now we're, yeah, we're about to say we're now knowing the life of David Gale.
Remember that movie, folks?
Obscure Kevin, what's this?
Kevin Space movie where he gets the death penalty?
I couldn't tell you what happens.
Or he's fighting to someone else.
Call that aspirational cinema.
Yeah, it would be crazy.
that dude
never mind
I will say
oh man
there was something
else about this
oh I thought
you were gonna say
Steve that this
David Gale
was related to
back to the future's
Bob Gale
the writer of those
films
oh maybe he is
I'll check it out
but yeah
I think it's spelled
differently
but yeah
so he's just like
hey you could stay
in my room
she's like
no thank you
or my house
I'll sleep on the
floor she winds up
he clears out
a utility closet
for her to sleep in
and like
that's kind of
the funny
that's going on. Meanwhile, she calls back to Brandon. She's like trying to call all over to find
where Dylan might be. Dylan calls Brandon first. Yes, Dylan calls Brandon first. It's like, hey, do you know
where your sister is? And he's like, no, she's kind of hanging out with David, you know, she'd be with
David Silver's grandparents and or, uh, Henry Silver. It's in the book. I think. Yeah. This is Dylan
at the hotel bar or whatever. And this girl's like, hey. And he's like, oh, it's this real like,
the life of Luke Perry
that's what happened to him
all that you just go to a bar
and it's like hey
it's like oh man she goes
it's kind of a little worse though
because she goes
remember me
and thankfully he's like
oh yeah Janie
oh no it's that French woman
I got pregnant I gotta get out of Palm
Springs oh no she's come
to an act revenge on me
it's just crazy
because Dylan is like fucked up and down
the fucking western seaboard
that like
these women are just like oh you don't remember me but we fucked and like then he's
pressuring a high school student I know he's also supposedly a high school student but
I don't know it's just weird to have your high school student character be this out there
this much of a lethario yeah this is like a Don Draper season three thing
yeah dude if you're laying more pipe than Don Draper that's something
so like we should say speaking to call in the calling the calling Brandon
as this is all going on
we're also editing back
to Beverly Hills where Brandon
is befriending this little kid
who's coming into the peach fit
it's the same little actor
that calls Jerry Seinfeld the fat fuck
in the non-fat yogurt episode
oh I love it
he's playing Curtis is the kid's name
Curtis yeah yeah yeah
he's just a little turd he's in there
eating pie and you know insulting the food
actually that's probably why Nat's not in the episode
because all this kid does is drag
his restaurant the whole time
Nat would be kicking this kid out in the road.
There's this weird bit where like, he's like, oh, only girls wear bracelets, Brandon.
It's like, no, it's a friendship bracelet.
It's fucking really expensive.
You would be able to afford it, you little shithead.
And my favorite part of the episode is Andrea, poor Andrea comes in.
Oh, Jesus.
Three buses later, it gets to the peach pit.
Three buses for a three minute conversation, by the way.
Oh, hey, Brandon.
Update.
I just looked up Curtis on IMDB, John Christian Gras.
He was also in kindergarten cop.
That's right.
That's right.
I kind of remember him, yes.
Because he's the little kid whose father is abusing him or the mother.
Yes.
I think that he's dad that's abusing him.
Yes.
Yep.
Yeah, so Andrea shows up and she's like, hey Brandon, blah, blah, blah.
He's like, yeah, you got nothing to do either, huh, Andre?
And she's like, no, I don't.
Oh, what's the matter?
Andrea couldn't figure out all the.
bus transports to Bob Springs.
Oh, by the way.
That's cruel. Update. Another update on
Curtis. This is funny. He joined Scott
is going into the military. Oh, did he
really? He's in the Marine Corps training
to be an aviator as of 2010.
Oh, wow. I hope he made it.
So, but the whole thing here is
like, he's like, oh, yeah, why don't you,
the kid, Brandon goes away and
the kid goes up to Andre's like,
why don't you have a friendship
bracelet don't you have any friends oh my god it sucks it's so good i i have plenty of friends i've got my
books i've got uh the man that used to jerk off in front of me at the bus station i have uh two of
my teachers i don't you know brandon just just date andria exactly she's there she's good looking
you're like each other for the most part you know you can talk about things it's so wild too
because like they have the like four sentences
that these two actors exchanged between each other
here in this episode like Brandon is like leaning over the counter
she's like leaning in their faces are really close
they're joking they're getting along
the two actors have good chemistry together it's just
so heartbreaking that this never happens
for Andrea specifically yeah
I think Andrea Zuckerman is my favorite character
her and Jim Walsh are starting to Dylan of course
Audrey's Salt of the Earth, man
She doesn't have a fucking silver spoon
She's not even like fake pour like Brandon is
Like oh my dad won't buy me a car
She's like yeah I took fucking five buses
To go to the peach bit to smell your hair asshole
And he's also crying at Steve Sanders
At the start of this episode being like
Well some of us have to work Steve
Yeah okay it's a little rich boy job
Your daddy wants to teach you the value of a buck
Right, right right
It'll be fine
I do love when Brandon
Just did not backtrack too
but when Brandon is telling Steve
like he's reminding him that he can't go and he's
like Steve didn't you get
my message I said I couldn't
go and I'm picturing like
the scene of Brandon having to be like
yeah Steve I can't go to
Palm Springs I gotta work at the
beach business weekend
Ned sister had a heart attack
you know what that would be
good give me like a Nat calling
them up do just voiceover something
to be like Brandon I need you to run
the peach pit my sister had a heart
then he calls back like halfway
through the episode when Brandon's closing up
and it's like she's gone Brandon
and he's like who is this
and that cash register
better not be short when I get back
and that's kind of there
we can just actually finish this subplot
it's kind of useless you know
the kids just keep popping back
he's got witty banter this that and the other thing
you can kind of tell something's going
on with him yeah Brandon
leaves the last night of
their trip, of the episode.
And this is the thing.
He closes up to Peach Pit. You look at the
kid, watch how Brandon does the register earlier
in the episode. The kid
you know, Brandon shuts the lights,
closes the door, immediately the kid's out. You always got to give the
five-minute buffer. You always got to do it.
I mean, how long have you been sitting there waiting it out anyway, kid? Like, what's
another five minutes? It's ridiculous. And the kid, the kid is
a fucking criminal mastermind.
He explains later that he left the bathroom window open so that he could sneak in after dark.
Here's a question, though, because like when Brandon leaves, you know, he locks like the side door to the peach pit and he's like, you know, walking to his bike or car.
I don't know.
And he, what Jason Priestley does is it's supposed to be like a, oh, I forgot something and I have to go back inside.
He puts his hand up against like his like front like breast pocket out of his t-shirt.
and I was like, well, what do you keep it in there?
Keys, cigarettes, your wallet?
Like, what does a person put in a fucking front pocket
other than a pen, which I can't imagine
you're going back for?
It's a great question. I have no idea.
Oh, damn.
That's where I keep my lucky condom.
He always leaves it in the drawer for the shift.
He leaves it in the cashier just over safe keeping
so that damage.
If you can, like, see the condom through his t-shirt
and you ask him like, hey, Brandon Walsh,
is that a condom in your front chest pocket?
He goes, no, it's just my flat nipple.
It's my third flat nipple.
But no, what he finds the kid, and it's like, hey, I'm going to call your parents.
Like, we don't have a phone.
We're homeless.
He's jacking this kid up against this cat.
Oh, you kind of is.
He flips him around and gives him the old, like, two fists on the T-shirt.
I thought he's going to break his neck.
This is like a T.J. Hooker Takedown.
Yeah.
Tackles his kid's legs.
It's crazy.
I thought the morale
Because you know there's so many episodes of Brandon
Learning a lesson I thought I was going to be like
Don't fucking break a kid's neck
Brandon learns this episode not to kill children
Jim Walsh is like
Don't worry about it
It happened to me too
We'll get past this
It's actually how I met your mother
Brandon their bones are smaller
And more gent more weaker than ours
You can't just throw them around
Like you're throwing around Steve Sanders
But no he's homeless
And Brandon feels really bad
he makes him dinner
and then he kind of goes home
and the last part of the episode
because who cares is
you know Brandon coming back to Jim
and Cindy in the house like oh hey Brandon
you know we're going to help you with your car
and he's like you know dad it kind of like
Mondale and he's like wow you are
so much better than your sister
Jesus Christ
God damn you know what Brandon every day
you remind me and your mother that your sister
fucking sucks as
but I mean it's good that it puts
in perspective for Brandon
sure like you're not you're not
you're not fucking on poverty's door
like you keep acting like
exactly it's kind of it's very
important to the character of Brandon Walsh
that he did not go on this Palm Springs weekend
but meanwhile at Palm Springs we get to David Silver's
house and it's fucking bang in this place
holy god damn it dude I want to start selling drugs so I can get
money like this I was actually
I'm you know me and my wife are watching this we were like
fuck you know it's not about having kids it's about being party
grandparents dude right
These two fucking rule.
So they're, you know, he's giving them the grand tour.
They're like, wow, this house is fucking sick.
This, that, the other thing.
You can also tell right here it's a real well, shut my mouth from Kelly and Donna.
Exactly.
Like, nice fucking house.
Better than your fucking bug-filled whatever the fuck, Steve Sanders.
And what's so funny, too, is like, like David is so embarrassed by his grandparents being around,
but everyone at the party loves them.
And they're bringing drinks.
I think they're bringing alcoholic drinks
to these children.
They are.
No, they 100% are
because in the first instance of like party weekend
where you see them coming out
with a tray of drinks,
the grandpa, when they're walking away,
definitely goes,
Tequila.
And I was like, fucking right, grandpa.
Hold on.
This is awesome.
Let me just check.
Maybe it's in the soundtrack.
Maybe Tequila is playing.
Oh, you know what?
I think Tequila is playing on the soundtrack.
I think I looked at the soundtrack on IMDB.
That would make some sense.
But maybe he's just given these.
La Bamba and Tequila are playing this episode.
Oh, I missed a good chance to hear La Bamba.
God damn it, these cheapskates.
I think legally they had to play that song Tequila there
so that it would be like, yeah, yeah, you know what's happening.
But, you know, for the censors at the network, we're playing tequila.
You're totally right, Eric.
It's like Hitchcock filming the train going into the tunnel at the end of North Carolina.
Exactly. Put it together.
It's a tray of red drink.
because they look like fucking cocktails.
It's got to be like...
These kids are having the time of their life.
These grandparents don't give a fuck about the law.
And you know what?
It's their right.
Because basically what happens is at the end of the tour,
oops, here's the grandparents.
And they're like, oh, we came back from our tour early.
This is great.
We'll hang out.
And, like, at first the kids are put off by them,
but then they just charm their pants off
because they're very charming older Jewish people.
You've got two fun actors, Al Rousseo as Henry Silver.
He's been in some stuff.
He's in Godfather Part 3.
Big time TV actors.
He's in showgirls as well.
I think, yeah, he's like the guy that runs the strip club in showgirls.
Oh, no way.
He's that guy?
Oh.
I think so, unless I'm getting...
He's definitely in showgirls, but I might be getting showgirls mixed up.
Erica Yone is the mother, the grandmother, Adele Silver.
Who is, and you guys will know this, and I won't.
She played Madam Ruby in Pee We's Big Adventure.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Oh.
You did not see that movie?
still have never seen it you got to see it it's good it's Tim Burton I know for some reason
it's always turned me off I think is there a lot of circus stuff in that movie no you're thinking
about Big Top Pee Wee which is a sequel to that movie that definitely underperformed no you got to see
the first one because it's got a lot of great moments Phil Hartman has a very small role towards
the end so okay and well Phil Hartman also was like responsible for co-creating the show with him
yes the character they both why I didn't know that they both created
the character, as I understand it.
He never appeared on Pee Wee's Playhouse, though.
Good question. I don't know.
I didn't watch a lot of it. I mean, I don't really know.
I watched a good amount of Peewee's Playhouse, but I do not recall that at all.
I was too young to probably really know, recognize Phil Hartman off the bat.
But Peewee is great.
Paul Rubens is good, and I need to revisit that new movie they put on Netflix.
I don't know if.
Oh, I never watched it the holiday special or whatever?
I saw it once, and I was just like, well, whatever.
I just found my next internet project
is tracking this down.
So I was looking through
the grandfather's filmography
and he appeared on a television adaptation
because I guess there was also a movie of,
no, no, it's just a TV show
called The Littlest Hobo?
Listen to this plot synopsis.
A German Shepherd dog wanders endlessly
only stopping to do a good deed
or help a person in need
before returning to his road without
Out-end.
This eternal fucking dog
just wanders the streets of America
helping people.
Oh, I love it.
Let me just, let me stop a million tweets
because Phil Hartman was Captain Carl
in the first couple of seasons of...
There you go. Yes.
The Pewys Playhouse.
Yes. Just stopping a million tweets.
So, yeah, but we're having this all awesome.
Now, the next day, like, I'm going to get rid of my parents.
and Tuesday's going to bring her friend, Steve.
We're all going to get it wet this weekend kind of a thing.
But of course, that doesn't happen because the grandparents don't go away.
And Tuesday shows up with her friends who are like these goth metal girls,
which we are coding as disgusting.
Oh, absolutely, dude.
Steve Sanders gets the doorway and vomits all over one of them.
I mean, this is crazy.
No, that doesn't happen, but it's insane.
I guess it's because it's like their alternative, quote, unquote, or something.
They're not like, cheese.
leader type or whatever
you know. They're not your quote
unquote standard Beverly Hills
Babel babes. They're totally
attractive women though. It's like
one has like a, the only thing is
the one, not a thing, but like
how their coding is disgusting. One of them has
the earring and nipple and
nipple ring, whoops, and nose ring
connected thing, which we
find that is very extreme.
A little too far, I guess.
Steve Sanders could have easily
sashayed his way into a three
some of those two. They're by
the pool. The two of them are all over
him on either side. That's it
dude. What else do you need?
This is the difference between Steve Sanders
and Dylan. I feel like Dylan would be like
okay man, we're partying.
All of us, hey cool, you got any cool that
and he got that biker coke? Awesome. Now we're
having a good time. They're going to like
exchange like oh like in Jaws
they're like here's this scar here's that
scar. Let's look at some tattoos
compare some tattoos up at
Dylan's got like a mom heart tattoo hidden somewhere.
He's got a tattoo on his dick that says all aboard.
Meanwhile, back at Brenda finally finds Dylan's hotel because she calls Brandon and Brandon says where it was.
She goes to see him and oops.
And this is, I mean, like, I don't necessarily believe Dylan here because it's like, I don't know, like whatever a clock, it's early.
And this girl is just hanging out drinking what looks to be, I guess it's orange juice, but to me.
it's probably a cocktail as well.
No, that's what, dude, I was just guessing it was orange juice
because it's that early in the morning.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
Exactly.
We got like breakfast on the way.
And like Brenda's like devastated.
Like, oh my God, I can't believe you.
And like, yeah, dude.
Like, do you have a girl and you're like, it's one thing in the afternoon.
Like you hang out by the bar with this old friend of yours, sure.
It's the morning.
You guys did something last night, right?
You're 69ed.
Come on.
You 69.
Yeah.
Maybe like a no strings, no frills 69, just get in.
It's all business kind of a thing.
And we're doing it at the same time to save even more minutes.
And that's not technically cheating because it's mouth stuff.
As we know.
As we know.
No, no.
But so Brendan's devastating.
She runs out.
Dylan tries, he does a really bad job as Dylan will to try and like convince her.
She's like, oh my God, I can't believe you slept with this girl.
I was like, no, I didn't, Brent, nothing happened.
She's like, did you want to sleep with her?
I was like, well, yes, but I didn't.
It's like, again, man, just like, no, of course not.
I don't know the guy asked for you, baby.
Who, that pig back in there?
Absolutely not.
Exactly.
Defuse the bomb, Dylan.
The red wire is right there.
This is on Dylan, though.
Like, dude, what are you doing?
Bringing back a girl that you've previously had a thing with.
And then, you know, you know your current girlfriend, I guess.
I don't know if Dylan thinks in those terms, but Brenda does.
She's in town.
Like, it's just, it's irresponsible of Dylan to do this.
The one thing I thought, like, the way they played earlier on, I'm like, oh, is she like
her, his cousin?
Like, it's going to be like, Brenda, it's my cousin Janine or whatever.
And yes, I had sex with my cousin, okay?
I didn't know we were related at the time, Brent.
It was just 69ing.
It didn't count.
The only sort of defense he offers up that's like maybe a thing.
but they don't explore it at all
and they don't give this woman a chance
to also explain herself.
He says something about like,
that's Janie so-and-so,
she grew up across the street from us.
Okay.
He makes a mention that they were like neighbors
and I'm like, okay, like keep going with that.
You have to keep going with that.
Like, you know, I watched her grow up,
Bren, we're like brother and sister.
That's the line you need, dude.
And like, you need to have her also like,
you know, validate that story,
like back it up.
I've got a boyfriend
I would never do anything
Dylan's just like my big brother
I just like to see him sometimes
give him a nugi like that's fine
but so that none of that happens
and then Brenda's just like
you want to fuck Dylan let's fuck right now
oh man she's ready to go to hell tonight
because she's like you're a man with needs
I'm a woman with needs that's just fucking
get it over with Dylan
and he's like Dylan stop talking and take your clothes
off and he's like uh uh no
he's like he's in his
he's in his head he's thinking
about you saw like a little cartoon of like Dylan McKay's like thoughts right now and he's like
thinking about sex thinking about sex and then fucking Admiral Akbar walks in and just keeps going
yeah because if you move in nothing's going to happen it's just the fight will continue uh they wind up
going to David Silver's grandparents house as well uh they're at a big huff and brenda like in the foyer
brenda just basically is like uh runs off with Kelly and Donna and Steve and Dylan are just
like commiserating because Steve's been putting
them in the pool. He's like,
I don't want to hang out with those gross metal pigs
Kelly. I want to hang out with you.
Yeah, he tries to rekindle
with Kelly, but he also mentions
to one of the other party goers,
was it David or someone, but he
mentions that he needs a dog
catcher. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Oh, it's so
insane. Oh, the line is somewhere.
Oh, I wrote it down because it's
like a one-two punch, because I
I think David, if I find it, I'll go back to it.
I think David also has a part in that exchange.
Yeah, but by the way, you know, the grandparents are making burgers and hot dogs.
And I love these fucking people.
Dude, they are the most hospitable grandparents I've ever seen.
They're getting your, they know everybody, all these kids are drunk at their house.
They want to feed them.
And they're like, hey, David.
And it's great.
He's like, David, we're making some burgers.
And he goes, hot dogs.
It's a hot dog situation.
You got to love them, them hot dogs, dude.
Love a hot dog.
Oh, I found it.
It's Steve goes to Dylan.
Dylan, you call the SWAT team, and I'll call the dog catcher.
God damn it.
And David's like, we're not going to stay for lunch.
And they're like, well, why not?
Oh, we'll go out to, oh, we'll go out.
We'll treat you and your friends to lunch.
We'll go here.
We'll go there.
Dylan.
And he's like, no, because we don't want to hang out with you.
And they're like, well, your friends love us.
They're just being polite.
it's kind of great because then the grandmother who's like heartbroken just goes
as opposed to being rude oh yeah oh she's fucking dude
this is the first time uh in a long time i've watched something
where i put my hands over my face because it was so uncomfortable
well because the grandfather turns around and goes how could you say that it's like oh god
damn it's so bad because the other thing is i was expecting this to turn into you know
because, like, when Tuesday's friends show up
and there's a lot of extras around this pool party,
you know, I was expecting this to turn into the,
you know, Bart, are all of these children friends of yours,
you know, and it was going to get out of control?
But instead, it's like, it's the exact opposite.
It's what any fucking high school kid would love
that, like, the adult presence there is just cool with it
and they're being nice and there's fucking,
they're cooking you food, you savage.
I mean, his David Silver doesn't realize,
like your grandparents aren't going to be.
be as strict more morally with you as your parents.
Exactly.
Let it go.
Fucking let it wash over you.
You just have a fucking good time.
Enjoy your tequila sunrise, dude.
It's right there.
Totally. Enjoy your fucking 15-year-old self-drinking, you asshole.
David, it's okay if your friends smoke pot, but they've got to do it back by the patio,
David.
You know what, David, here's the thing.
Also, probably a great idea since it's at the back of the yard.
smoke weed in the hot tub.
Listen, David, your grandmother's going to cook up some hot dogs,
and then we're going to have a, you know, gravity bong over there.
Gravity fog, I wish.
David, excuse me, I'll be right back.
I got to go upstairs and get my wallet so I can cut some of this coke
with one of my black credit cards.
Now, David, if you see an older man come by here,
he's my drug dealer, totally cool.
If you want some uppers, down us, he's got them all on him.
Don't let it rip you off, though, David.
I don't let those hot dogs get cold
He's gonna hang out for a little bit
He's gonna smoke up with us a little bit
You know this is the way it goes with these dealers
You know it's not legal yet it's 92
Sometimes that was the worst
Like the dude's gonna hang
Oh absolutely
I never liked the hang
No I've never never enjoyed it
Or the enforced like you got a hang
If you're going there
Like a kind of a pseudo friend
It's all I even though it's more terrifying
I much prefer the
I'm going to get into your car, sir,
and I hope you don't murder me.
We'll drive around the block once
and call that a day, kind of a thing.
But they're devastated.
David Silva tries to get wet,
which I think is kind of part of his thing.
I mean, the whole thing is David's fucking,
like, why, here's the thing.
I understand you want to fuck Kelly Taylor.
Congratulations, it's never going to happen.
But why do you think Steve Sanders
is some kind of an Olympic god
that you need to like fucking look up to?
That guy sucks ass.
But he has had Kelly and David has not.
It's like Steve Sanders can teach me all the secrets to Kelly Taylor's heart, you know?
Yeah, and Steve Sanders is a convertible.
He's in physical shape, even though he's not a jock.
He washed out of the basketball tryouts.
For sure.
Do you do racism.
Right.
But he goes upstairs with Tuesday and like they start making out and making out, excuse me, I'm sorry.
I have to get this off my chest because it's shocking.
that David Silver thinks that he could possibly get an erection in a room full of birds.
What?
Dude, when they start making out, there's all these uncaged birds just standing on these fucking
fucking pedestals or whatever.
Some parrots and stuff, dude, I'd be totally fine.
Just pretend you're on fire.
Oh, yeah, just fucking, yeah, dude, these uncaged parents are nipping at your fucking balls.
No thanks.
You can't trust a bird.
People should not own birds.
No, thank you.
I had a few birds when I was growing up.
I mean, this was like when I was in like grade school or something.
I'm sure I popped a stiffy around one of them.
Not in like that way.
It's just a happenstance.
Well, sometimes you can't help it.
I know.
And that's his biology.
And that's the day I got circumcised.
Oh, David, give it to me.
Give it to me.
Give it to me.
Exactly, dude.
Exactly.
I mean
Wrong hole
Wrong hole
Scrat I want your dick
Scrat
I wouldn't even think of a bird really
Like I feel like a cat or a dog
As a fellow mammal
Might as a fellow mammal
No animals
No animals
Should be in the room
When funny business is going on
Man
But man
If your rules applied
There wouldn't be humanity today
Because people used to fuck in the forest
well I'm not talking about
forest fucking man
only you can prevent forest
fucking by the way
make sure you put out
your wife
I'm thinking about the fireplace
got it
I got it
maybe that's the wrong
maybe put out your erection
so
they make out for like two seconds
she breaks it off and she's like
oh you know
and it's kind of a funny scene
she's like oh you know I was into you
because you looked so much like my boyfriend
who's not here.
Who's taller and more handsome than you?
Yeah.
Ouch.
And she's like,
but you're not him.
And my friends told me to go for it.
And they're blah, blah, blah.
She's just weeping.
And he's like, oh, man.
Son of a bitch.
Scott, I totally got to sixth base.
I kissed a girl.
Hey, also, we forgot about one of the funniest gags in the episode, dude.
Right before that is when he has the fight with his grandparents
and shit. And it's like they call him over for some reason. And right before they call him over,
he's trying to put sunscreen on her back. Oh, yeah. Oh, and there's just a sunscreen explosion. You can just
see the look on his face and she's like, wow, that's a lot of sunscreen. And he just, he leaves to go
10 to his grandparents. Like, dude, just hang. I know they might keep yelling, but like, you can't
leave this girl covered in random shit. Yeah, totally. You got to finish the job. I think that
That's also part of the reasons why they don't hook up afterwards.
Like, this guy's a fucking nobody.
Yeah, she's like, no offense, David Silver,
but there's already a bunch of shit slung across my back.
Come on.
I know. I'm sorry.
It did have to happen.
I know.
I know.
But so then, like, the day kind of progresses and everybody's like,
there's no apology scene just yet, but like the, I think, yeah, that's right.
The grandparents are telling them this story about how they met and all this stuff.
It's really nice.
And they're like trying to like, because obviously the guys and the girls don't like each other now.
Kelly is angry Steve.
Steve is into Kelly and Brandon and Dylan are at each other's throat.
So they're trying to like diffuse the situation in their sweet grandparently way and they're doing a good job of it.
Yeah.
And David's like, oh, man, maybe I was wrong.
We're playing charades.
Oh, yeah.
Another pretty woman reference.
The only movie to come out last year, I guess.
It was a, I mean, it was a fucking phenomenon, dude.
It absolutely was.
We don't think of it that way now because it.
It's an oddly problematic movie in a lot of ways these days.
Oh, really?
Yeah, there's just some weird stuff going on.
Jason Alexander's fucking a horrible character in that movie.
But like it.
It was just, it was, it was massive, though.
So like it kind of doesn't surprise me that they lean hard into it like this.
I do love, yeah, they're doing, they're doing charades and that's Dylan's turn to go up.
But Dylan is just like, you know, two words, it's a movie.
And then he points at Brenda and Donna goes.
Fredda Walsh.
And everyone was like, no, no, Donna.
No, no, Donna.
But I was glad that it helps reset Donna right here
back to dumb as Donna.
Yes.
Because there's a scene where Steve,
it's Stephen and Kelly are like in the pool
and he's like on a float and he's like,
what do you think, Kel, getting back together, Bob?
And she's like sitting on the side of the pool.
In the background, you can totally see Donna reading a book
and I was like, yeah, right.
Oh, no, the weirdest part is Donna goes up to the two Tuesdays friends, and she's like, wow, I really love your top.
Oh, right, the top trade.
Want a trade?
And this woman's like, no.
And also, if I'm this woman, like, is she coming on to me?
Like, what do you mean by this?
Just trade?
Well, I mean, because, like, Donna comes from a friend group where, like, they trade clothes all the time.
And this woman, you know, she's like a bad, hardcore, like, biker babe, you know, goth chick or whatever.
And she's like, yeah, I'm not fucking giving you.
my talk because in the exchange such as it would be
I definitely do not want to wear whatever that is you have all
we should try this in real life next time you see someone in like a cool t-shirt be like
you want to trade shirts right now I'll give you my shirt we'll go to the bathroom
we'll trade shirts just quick shirt swap shirt swap come with me to the bathroom
we'll trade shirts give it to me give it to me give me a shirt I'd be like that
guy's gonna murder me in the bathroom what's this doing in here
comic shit
that's if you trade shirts with me
so the
so that's you know
we're playing charades and like
David goes up to
his grandparents like wow I'm really sorry about this thing
and the other thing that's going on here
is David's parents just got divorced
there's a drop line early on about
how his grandparents
like kind of side with his mother
even though you know
it's his grandparents on his father's side
because they don't think they should get divorced
to say the other thing by the way when we get to it's season like three four or five you get a lot of
mel silver mill silver rules he has my favorite line in the entire show which is i'm sorry i have a
problem with monogamy which is my favorite line wow anybody of note playing male silver
no he's a guy i think he's in any of the cruisers if that that helps you but not not not a lick
not much else uh but yeah so like um they're like you know we just you know what with the divorce
and everything, we just want to make sure
you know that you can always come here.
We love you so much. And like this family's
not going anywhere. It's a very sweet scene.
And then like, oh, and your friends are great.
They're like, oh, you know, my real best friend
is Scott. Hey, we should come here
next weekend. Scott will come and we'll do
this all again. And then there's this line of like,
oh, that sucks.
It's a great reaction between the two of them.
Next weekend.
Oh, we've been a little too cool.
We have the orgy next
weekend. Oh, fuck. We can't.
move that back. We can't, we can't, we're going to lose the deposit on the gimp.
Almost spit beer out of my mouth. I love, when he has the epiphany about Scott, he does
at least acknowledge. He says, yeah, he's like, yeah, my best friend is Scott. And he says,
I totally ditched him. Yes. What we need here, just, just for me, I guess. You need a
cut to this kid, one in the cart on a roller coaster. Just tick it for one roller coaster man. And
there's Scott just yay yeah he's having the time of his life he's that either the bumper car yeah
just a little magic mountain montage of Scott or just keep cutting back for split seconds here
there's like you cut to Scott and he's just like eating cotton candy really quickly and then you go
back to the episode or it's Scott in bed with some gorgeous woman oh my head cigarette she's like
wow Scott I never knew we could do this ever since we met it magic mountain and then like it's like a
weird thing where they're oddly close
in bed, like the camera's oddly close
to the both of them. And then we just pan
to the left and there's another woman that's like
yeah, Scott, I sure wish
your friend David could have been here
to hang out with us. And then we pan
out the window and we see a train
going through a tunnel.
So that's
I mean the last, one of the last scene of note
is Dylan and Brenda
by the pool.
And they've clearly made up and it's
you know do you think we'll ever have grandkids and blah blah blah it's just a cute scene
they're nice together you get it's a cute scene with a good dillon line here though oh please what do you
got there because brenda goes uh you know like i want a house like this someday or something like that
then dylan goes then you'd have david silver as a grandson they cannot stop shitting on the
guy who made this all possible it's great they hate his guts uh you get a bad john wayne impression here
It's a medium rare John Wayne impression.
I was okay with that.
Yeah, I think you would have been a great podcaster.
It would be amazing if we, you know, you're listening to this on the, on a podcast,
you don't know what we look like.
You show up, three of us look like three of us, and Chris Cabin looks like Luke Perry.
And you're like, what?
How did that happen?
Follow us on Twitter individually for the truth.
Yeah, exactly.
So you can have that illusion shattered.
Yeah, so, but that's kind of it.
You know, like, they kind of make up and, like, they're kind of playful by the pool.
We were to talk to the Brandon episode.
That's it.
You know, this episode, somebody in the writer's room was like, you know what?
We've got all these kids.
Let's get them out doing kid shit.
Yep.
Yeah.
What if we had our group of friends actually all hang out with each other like a group of friends?
It's food for thought right there.
So that's going to do it for this week.
We, I want to cut to Eric Sisketty parting shots.
Are you excited to do this?
We've got one more Melrose Place episode coming up next week,
and the week after that is our final Beverly Hills 9-0-2-0 episode of this quarantine-free version,
but it will move to Patreon at a date TBD.
There's a lot of stuff in the air, but it might come back.
It will come back.
We just don't know when.
Yes.
Yeah.
Now, you know, I'm very excited to keep going on both of these shows because I really had no idea
what a cornucopia I was facing.
I really have enjoyed both of these this episode was good I enjoyed all the little lessons and all the
hornyness of it was very interesting so obviously I'm excited to keep going uh Andrew Jupin any thoughts
yeah I have a thought but I also have a question Steve so the question first it's not going to
inform my final thought in any way but the question is do we see these grandparents ever again
I looked at it it's a no they're never come back that fucking sucks what a fuck
mistake, Darren Starr. What a fucking
mistake. David Silva didn't go to our
funeral?
Steve Sanders is there
crying. Also, our
funeral is a fucking double team
funeral. They had the best pool I've ever
seen. And also, by the way, David, you do not
want to, oh, actually, no, Adel Silver shows up
a bunch of them looking at it. At least
four more times, three more times than
96 and 97. So that's something.
Ooh, okay. But you know what? I think
David Silver's grandfather
disappear is because he's in the nether plane
fighting Malachi throne behind the scenes.
Oh, that totally checks out.
But if you're, I mean, if you, if you've got this fucking,
what do you call it there, these rich grandparents,
the one thing you want to do is remain in their good graces
for the rest of their lives.
Absolutely.
Never had the pleasure, by the way, but I wish I did.
Yeah.
Similarly, I, I, the other thing I wanted to point out, though,
I have a fave, uh, editing.
gag here in this episode
that we didn't get to touch on. I just want to mention it
really quickly. There's
a scene where they're in the Silver's house
and
Donna and
Kelly are like walking up the stairs
it's like the first awkward night
and they're just going to go to bed
and they're like oh what do you think
like I think Kelly's like what do you think
Brenda's doing right now?
To which Donna responds
oh Dylan what beautiful eyes you have
and they kind of have a laugh and as
they are mid-laugh, it is smash-cut to a close-up of the door just saying broom closet and
this just starts sleeping in there? Holy shit is that funny. That's good. Anyway, just wanted to point
that out. But yeah, I'm super excited to continue, especially also on Patreon, which yet, just to
confirm what Steve was saying, it is not so much an if as it is indeed a when we return.
Absolutely. Yeah. Yes, I mean, like I said before, what I love about this episode is we
finally get all the kids being kids being around each other mixing it up fucking and
fighting it's what i want you know what i mean like absolutely i don't need you know what doesn't
happen in this episode brandon dates a girl who dot da da but uh and everyone has to sit around like
oh brandon why does she but but da but uh you know what i mean like none of that shit happens
um so yeah uh we are coming back we're coming back next week for sure for a milroroo
our last melrose place of this season we'll call it but yeah so that it's been fun we'll see
We've got a lot of stuff coming up.
Next week, we're doing an episode on,
oh, Lara Croft Tomb Raider, everybody.
A cradle of life, yes.
Yes, I wanted to quickly, yeah, the cradle of life.
Yeah, the sequel, the second Angelina Jolie movie.
Oh, I want to mention if you want to catch up,
you know, get up to speed for that second Angelina Jolie Tomb Raider movie,
we did indeed do a full episode on the first Lara Croft Tomb Raider,
which is on our Patreon.
There are so many full episodes, both on the We Hate Feed and the We Love Feed, which is all for five bucks.
You get five bucks.
You get hours of entertainment on patreon.com slash we hate movies.
We released an episode on Raiders of the Lost Ark very recently, which rules the school.
Great summer entertainment there.
Oh, yeah.
We got a nexus on two pretty solid apps of Trek.
The board for showing up.
That's right.
Very good.
Deadly year.
and Q Hugh, both great episodes.
And you've got yourself a Gleap Glossary on Bib Fortuna,
an animation damnation on the mass cartoon.
Tons of great shit this month.
And the cool thing is when you sign up,
you get all the other months as well.
So you get a shit ton of content the second you sign up.
By the way, speaking of signing up for stuff,
if you go to wh-hmpodcast.com,
there'll be a fun button that'll let you know,
A, to where our merch story is,
and B, an Act Blue Link, where to donate,
because we are donating all of our proceeds that we get from our T-Public store this year, the entire year, to Black Lives Matter and Black Lives Matter adjacent charities.
We've seen a lot of you guys grab some stuff, and it's been awesome and donating as well.
So it's really cool to just sort of spearhead that effort as best we can.
So thank you guys for that.
And before we go, Steve, I know we've already said we're going to bring this back in some iteration on Patreon, or will we?
I want to read the room.
I want to read the room.
give us a rating on iTunes or wherever you get the show
and let us know if you've been enjoying Melro 2-1-0.
That is a great.
Yeah, we need more iTunes reviews, guys. Come on.
Yeah, and not like those fake ones that are like,
don't listen to this show.
They're a bunch of racist.
Yes, there's a bit of concern trolling on our iTunes.
There's a bit of supporters of the president.
Oh, you don't want that.
And if you're listening to this, I don't know,
the president right now is Donald Trump.
Yeah, depending on when you get this.
Yeah, I feel like David Silver's grandparents would vote for Biden in a big, bad way.
It's my guess.
Yep, yep.
Just judging by the way they host a barbecue, absolutely.
So that's going to do it this week.
We will see you next week.
I have been Stephen Sadek.
I'm Andrew Jupin.
Eric Siska.
Take it easy.
Remain indoors and please put on your fucking mask so this could end.
I'm going to be able to be.
That was a hit gum podcast.
