Summary

Blowing back our cheeks and headed for the farm. It’s time to learn how to survive. Kate is alive in her army jacket, while Jacqueline reminisces about her barn coat. Paging Dr. Me. The kabocha pushes back and the fear of bad arugula. What color is Jacqueline’s hair? A salad bar in the fridge and a harness on Boo's back. The possibility of abduction brings uncertainty, but it’s the reintegration that gets you. Kate experiences two-yolk prosperity. Burping the house and mochi for kids. A Poog playlist is teased, as the hags take turns djing. Slightly buzzed in bed, longing to be the fully screen-less genius. Poog will be broadcast through the end.

But my friend who runs the vintage store's surrender Dorothy was like, it's an authentic vintage army jacket. It's Surrender Dorothy. But my friend who runs the vintage horse, Surrender Dorothy, was like, she knew me when I was in the ninth grade. And she's like, you had an army jacket. And I completely had fucking forgotten that I wore an army jacket that I had from the gap. Because I was so obsessed with freaks and geeks. And I wanted to be Linda Cardalini or is it Lisa? She rules. Linda Carlini rules. Okay, yeah, of course. And I'm forgetting her fucking name in the, in Freaks and Geeks. Well, you had her real name. I think that's all that matters. I know about so depressing me that I can't. Anyway, but she and so then I, so it's back.

1:11.7

No, I absolutely love it. It reminds me. I was thinking the other day about how I had a barn jacket, a barn coat. It's like the end of the kind of work coat.

1:21.9

Yep. Yep. Very, very northeast, very north, very east coast. Yeah, New England. You're out, you're out in the shed working.

And also deciding to let the names in, like to let the names into deciding the name of a color. Oh, yeah, sure. Azure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that even how you say it? I think it's got to be. Yeah. But like you're like introduced to a color via J crew before you've ever heard of. Yeah. You know, it's kind of interesting. Like, I'd like the Azurre. Yeah, yeah. Tony Soprano, remember when, but. Wait, what do you say? The lowest form of conversation, remember when? Isn't that, you always bring that up. Doesn't Polly say it? That's so funny, really. Remember when? I thought Tony does. Maybe, maybe he's Tony. By the way, I do for rewatch.
