Ohhhh, yeah. Him.

I kept saying, "That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works." The vagina isn't an opening to the rest of the organs, FFS.

This started out super cringe but really grew on me as the episode progressed. I am a huge fan of both Grease and Grease 2, having watched them multiple times as a kid. My sisters and I attended a summer day care that showed the movies on a loop. This was the early 1980s, so imagine my surprise when I was old enough to understand all the not-so-subtle subtext and innuendos. We also "choreographed" dances to the Footloose soundtrack (I was 9-10), if that gives you additional insight into the structure of that day care. It was wildly fun.

There was a scene last week in which Nancy was with Mateo eating breakfast when Owen walked into the kitchen. Like, cool, just your boss hanging out with you after you and your boyfriend banged. Why would Nancy ever stay there?!

I laughed so much at "laughter of the dead." Every time I watch an older movie or show with a pet in it, I think about how it's dead now. :( I got the identical cousins reference because I am 48, and I think I watched the show in syndication after school. So yeah, I don't expect most people to know what that goofy shit was about. And in that dream, Owen was married to Tommy? OK, I guess. Judd stomping around like his feelings were hurt was just stupid. He's so immature that he doesn't respond to his kid's texts, but he's going to "support" him and his girlfriend's baby? Sure.

And most of the part "under the sea" was brown, too. Because choux pastry puffs are brown when baked!

The pronunciation of "macaron" was all over the place tonight.😩 Jesse said it at least three different ways. I'm tired of Nancy's completely arbitrary and changing definition of spring color. I guess brown and clear and white at night is fine if it's in outer space(??). The winning "arbor" looked like Christmas with red caramel, white flowers and green leaves, but no mention of that. The green and brown arbor was "fall". Whatever.

The paper floss pick is huge, and there's no way I could use it to force floss in between my crowded teeth as it starts to soften with my saliva. There's already plastic made from corn—I bought party cups made with it YEARS ago—which would be the smarter sustainable material to use.

We watched the first episode last night. I really liked it. I'm most interested in the foster girl's story. I was enraged at her foster "mother" turning on the radio to drown out what she knew were sounds of sexual abuse. I loved that the "father" got exactly what he deserved. If only every rapist and child abuser met that fate.

Yeah, in no world would I put my SSN and fingerprints in a random video game. I don't even put my birthdate in the blood pressure machine at Walgreens. Someone said the market doesn't have WiFi. That doesn't matter. The machine could have a SIM card just like a phone and connect to a cellular network.

OF COURSE Owen thinks he so wildly desirable that a billionaire would pay him for sex.

YES. It's just like not answering the phone. There's no law that says you have to go to the door when people drop by unannounced.

Almost every baker does it, and it makes me crazy. It's not a regional pronunciation; it's just wrong.

TBH, I had to look up Adriana's name. I only knew that Amanda is the piano restorer. I was irritated at Dee Dee's crying TO HER DAUGHTER about how she "doesn't have anyone but everyone else has someone". Linda had only her in-utero fetus! Amanda seemed to have only her fiance who died in the crash. So is Dee Dee now living in a small apartment in L.A. and selling her husband's condo, or is she now a real estate agent? That wasn't clear from the conversation with her daughter.

Adriana is the congressperson-elect. Amanda is the piano restorer.

Who is Alexander Michael Troy (the name in the text from Marcus to Poppy at the end)? If Shreve had been shot, I'd have gone and burned down the entire set of this show.

But she seemed to know what Elena was talking about when Elena said "your real birth certificate." And then immediately agreed to pay Elena $5 million for it.

How would Charlotte even know that Jocelyn is her mother? She'd been "a Greybourne" since she was a baby.

I'm grossed out by Matthew and Elena getting it on, even though it was obvious from minute one that it was going to happen. But he's what? 20 years older than her? Yuck.

My boyfriend said she was Large Marge. (We're old.)

Thank you for making me feel less alone. Jennifer Garner bugs me for reasons I can't quite explain. Maybe because she plays the same character as in her 8,000 Capital One commercials? I don't know, but she adds nothing but annoyance to the show for me. What adult hangs out at their boyfriend's/girlfriend's job all day? I get we aren't dealing with the most mature people here, but still. Henry's a teacher FFS.

She definitely heard Ghost Jocelyn crying first and then went to the piano to start playing, just like she did when Elena was "trapped" in the same "secret" passageway to Charlotte's apartment. Are we ever going to find out who killed Allie?

YES. I can barely stand him. I also can't stand Eddie. I've said on these forums before that he looks like a graduate of Joey Tribbiani's "Smell-a-Fart" Acting Class. (Yes, I just said that about a guy on "Truth Be Told".) I also don't have the affection for Christopher that everyone else has, but I'm a child-hating shrew. See y'all in hell, I guess.

I told my boyfriend that Buck's sweater looked itchy and hot. May had on a short sweater vest over an oversized button-down. Lotta weird choices in this episode. I can't figure out JLH's deal. Her third/last child was born in August 2021. How was she still pregnant when they were filming this?

We've started doing impressions of all the characters, including Ames's facial expressions straight from the "Joey Tribbiani Smell-a-Fart Acting Technique".
