Starting point is 00:00:00 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,
Starting point is 00:01:21 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.
Starting point is 00:01:36 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
Starting point is 00:01:51 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.
Starting point is 00:02:03 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?
Starting point is 00:02:30 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
Starting point is 00:03:03 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,
Starting point is 00:03:21 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
Starting point is 00:03:37 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
Starting point is 00:03:53 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?
Starting point is 00:04:18 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.
Starting point is 00:04:40 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,
Starting point is 00:04:54 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?
Starting point is 00:05:36 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.
Starting point is 00:06:02 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.
Starting point is 00:06:18 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.
Starting point is 00:06:49 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.
Starting point is 00:07:09 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.
Starting point is 00:07:23 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.
Starting point is 00:08:09 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.
Starting point is 00:08:35 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.
Starting point is 00:08:52 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
Starting point is 00:09:25 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
Starting point is 00:09:43 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.
Starting point is 00:09:58 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,
Starting point is 00:10:10 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?
Starting point is 00:10:20 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
Starting point is 00:10:43 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.
Starting point is 00:11:04 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
Starting point is 00:11:22 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
Starting point is 00:11:40 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.
Starting point is 00:12:07 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.
Starting point is 00:12:31 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,
Starting point is 00:12:52 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,
Starting point is 00:13:10 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
Starting point is 00:13:24 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
Starting point is 00:13:36 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.
Starting point is 00:13:57 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.
Starting point is 00:14:17 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.
Starting point is 00:14:46 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.
Starting point is 00:15:14 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
Starting point is 00:15:30 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
Starting point is 00:15:46 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.
Starting point is 00:16:06 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
Starting point is 00:16:25 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.
Starting point is 00:16:40 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.
Starting point is 00:16:52 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.
Starting point is 00:17:16 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
Starting point is 00:18:00 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?
Starting point is 00:18:35 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.
Starting point is 00:19:00 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.
Starting point is 00:19:26 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
Starting point is 00:19:53 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.
Starting point is 00:20:11 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.
Starting point is 00:20:25 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?
Starting point is 00:20:45 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.
Starting point is 00:21:23 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.
Starting point is 00:21:42 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
Starting point is 00:21:57 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
Starting point is 00:22:22 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,
Starting point is 00:22:56 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.
Starting point is 00:23:14 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.
Starting point is 00:23:32 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
Starting point is 00:24:01 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
Starting point is 00:25:05 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.
Starting point is 00:25:27 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
Starting point is 00:25:43 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.
Starting point is 00:26:00 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.
Starting point is 00:26:24 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.
Starting point is 00:26:40 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
Starting point is 00:26:56 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
Starting point is 00:27:11 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.
Starting point is 00:27:23 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,
Starting point is 00:27:31 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.
Starting point is 00:27:47 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?
Starting point is 00:28:10 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.
Starting point is 00:28:25 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.
Starting point is 00:28:39 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
Starting point is 00:28:56 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
Starting point is 00:29:11 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.
Starting point is 00:29:28 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,
Starting point is 00:29:44 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?
Starting point is 00:30:02 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
Starting point is 00:30:15 I will say oh man there was something else about this oh I thought you were gonna say Steve that this David Gale
Starting point is 00:30:23 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
Starting point is 00:30:29 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
Starting point is 00:30:35 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
Starting point is 00:30:43 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
Starting point is 00:31:15 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
Starting point is 00:31:27 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
Starting point is 00:31:43 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
Starting point is 00:32:17 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
Starting point is 00:32:31 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.
Starting point is 00:32:50 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.
Starting point is 00:33:11 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.
Starting point is 00:33:27 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.
Starting point is 00:33:41 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.
Starting point is 00:34:02 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
Starting point is 00:34:36 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
Starting point is 00:35:01 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
Starting point is 00:35:19 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
Starting point is 00:35:36 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
Starting point is 00:35:51 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
Starting point is 00:36:09 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
Starting point is 00:36:27 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.
Starting point is 00:36:45 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
Starting point is 00:37:04 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?
Starting point is 00:37:41 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.
Starting point is 00:37:58 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.
Starting point is 00:38:20 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.
Starting point is 00:38:35 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
Starting point is 00:38:50 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
Starting point is 00:39:04 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
Starting point is 00:39:17 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
Starting point is 00:39:31 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
Starting point is 00:39:48 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.
Starting point is 00:40:11 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,
Starting point is 00:40:34 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
Starting point is 00:40:49 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.
Starting point is 00:40:59 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.
Starting point is 00:41:14 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.
Starting point is 00:41:34 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,
Starting point is 00:41:48 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.
Starting point is 00:42:06 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.
Starting point is 00:42:19 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.
Starting point is 00:42:34 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.
Starting point is 00:43:07 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.
Starting point is 00:43:30 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,
Starting point is 00:43:48 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.
Starting point is 00:44:10 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.
Starting point is 00:44:26 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,
Starting point is 00:44:49 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
Starting point is 00:45:07 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
Starting point is 00:45:23 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
Starting point is 00:45:39 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
Starting point is 00:45:57 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.
Starting point is 00:46:24 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.
Starting point is 00:46:44 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?
Starting point is 00:47:02 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.
Starting point is 00:47:17 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.
Starting point is 00:47:36 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.
Starting point is 00:47:50 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.
Starting point is 00:48:10 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.
Starting point is 00:48:32 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
Starting point is 00:48:46 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.
Starting point is 00:49:02 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
Starting point is 00:49:16 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
Starting point is 00:49:32 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
Starting point is 00:50:06 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
Starting point is 00:50:24 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.
Starting point is 00:50:47 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.
Starting point is 00:51:01 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.
Starting point is 00:51:18 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
Starting point is 00:51:32 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,
Starting point is 00:52:05 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,
Starting point is 00:52:25 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.
Starting point is 00:52:40 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.
Starting point is 00:53:08 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.
Starting point is 00:53:26 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
Starting point is 00:53:41 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,
Starting point is 00:53:57 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.
Starting point is 00:54:11 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?
Starting point is 00:54:34 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.
Starting point is 00:54:54 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.
Starting point is 00:55:21 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.
Starting point is 00:55:37 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.
Starting point is 00:55:50 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
Starting point is 00:56:03 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
Starting point is 00:56:14 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
Starting point is 00:56:31 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
Starting point is 00:56:44 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.
Starting point is 00:56:58 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.
Starting point is 00:57:08 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
Starting point is 00:57:44 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.
Starting point is 00:58:04 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.
Starting point is 00:58:24 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.
Starting point is 00:58:43 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.
Starting point is 00:59:01 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.
Starting point is 00:59:26 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.
Starting point is 00:59:44 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?
Starting point is 01:00:05 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
Starting point is 01:00:34 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
Starting point is 01:00:59 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
Starting point is 01:01:15 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
Starting point is 01:01:51 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,
Starting point is 01:02:07 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
Starting point is 01:02:31 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
Starting point is 01:03:18 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
Starting point is 01:03:34 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
Starting point is 01:03:57 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.
Starting point is 01:04:34 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.
Starting point is 01:04:52 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?
Starting point is 01:05:09 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.
Starting point is 01:05:33 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
Starting point is 01:05:57 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
Starting point is 01:06:23 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
Starting point is 01:06:41 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.
Starting point is 01:07:02 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
Starting point is 01:07:19 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
Starting point is 01:07:35 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.
Starting point is 01:08:06 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.
Starting point is 01:08:42 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,

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.

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.
Starting point is 01:11:00 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.
Starting point is 01:11:18 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.
