Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s. 84 was a wild year. It was a wild year.

225.481 - 252.383 Sean Hunter

Oh, my God.

255.08 - 273.32 Ryder Strong

That's funny. I was waiting for the connection. I was like, why is Will showing this? He goes, yeah, sure, it's funny. I definitely remember this back in the day, but I didn't remember the Feeny reference. It did, and it made me wonder, where's the most random place you ever saw a Boy Meets World reference where you were just like, what the? Right.

273.34 - 273.46

Right.

275.617 - 300.442 Ryder Strong

I mean, you know, they got Bill to do, oh my God, Bill, but it wasn't a Boy Meets World reference, but Bill did a sketch one time, and this is like 10, 15 years ago, it was with the creator of Hacks. What's her name? I'm blanking on her name. Yeah. Paul... All right. It's Paul and Lee... I'm going to forget that. But for a while, they were doing... I'll look at them up.

Chapter 4: How do the characters reflect on their relationships and past actions?

375.288 - 375.709 Corey Matthews

Come on.

0

376.21 - 392.118 Ryder Strong

No bad publicity? This is great. I think Hackers was trying to be, like, cool. It was. And, like, watching, like, a kid's sitcom was just, like, cheesy in the 90s. That was, like, they rollerbladed everywhere, and they were in New York City, and there was a pool on top. It was like, oh, God. The irony is that Hackers is the least cool thing.

0
0

392.358 - 419.428 Ryder Strong

now right and boy meets world kind of has like this cool factor yeah the sheen of nostalgia makes boy meets world way cooler than that piece of crap it was terrible though it was not a good movie but yeah it was a great movie in a bad way there's been numerous times that i've been sitting with headphones on in my house listening to rap music just walking around and then danielle gets referenced in the wild which is it's always topanga right yeah it's always topanga or phoenix all

0

419.408 - 429.305 Ryder Strong

So what I was talking about was Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello who created Hacks, that show. And it's called Ghost Tits featuring Olivia Munn.

430.687 - 430.847 Corey Matthews

Oh, God.

430.867 - 441.585 Ryder Strong

And Bill pops up in it and it's hysterical. Yeah. That is so funny. It's not worth sharing. But yeah. That was by far the – but Fallon has brought us up a lot.

441.565 - 465.447 Ryder Strong

fallon is like a boy meets world person because he's like when he's done like his shout outs where he like just says like name associations he's thrown in my name like something night writer writer strong but you know he does like all these word associates and then wasn't it fallon that um that had um which show had um the the beat poem like yeah that was that was samuel was it samuel jackson yeah sam jackson

465.427 - 477.158 Ryder Strong

And it was just like, it's classic. So I guess either he or someone on his staff is just a big Boy Meets World fan. I think it's him. Gives us a shout out. I think it's him. So next time we're in New York, we're just going to have to pop in and say hi.

Chapter 5: What happens to Topanga during the prank war?

3029.201 - 3033.97 Rachel McGuire

But that's the point is that that's why that's the point is like, yeah, of course you're part of the team, but then she's really not part of the team.

0

3034.151 - 3036.395 Angela Moore

But yeah, they do everything without me anyway.

0

3036.435 - 3036.555 Rachel McGuire

Right.

0

3037.919 - 3042.967 Angela Moore

I'm also wearing that, I think it's that same bad fake leather jacket that I've been wearing.

0

3042.987 - 3044.689 Ryder Strong

You are in some sort of pleather situation.

3044.83 - 3047.073 Angela Moore

Yeah, it's a pleather. It's like a nice little pleather number.

3047.794 - 3050.498 Ryder Strong

Which I thought I was like, oh, Topanga's a bad girl this episode?

3050.799 - 3053.523 Angela Moore

I know. What's going on? She's getting fast and loose.

3053.883 - 3057.649 Ryder Strong

Yeah, leather jacket whore. Exactly.

Chapter 6: How do the characters react to the escalating prank war?

3065.199 - 3082.202 Angela Moore

She says she warned them. Topanga whines, join our side and teach these guys a lesson. Topanga throws her arms around Corey and Sean. Sorry, guys, I have to go with them. Corey assures her, good move. Go with the more experienced. Topanga tells the girls, they need me more. They're just not smart. I do say that.

0

3082.182 - 3090.115 Ryder Strong

I know. Okay, good. But it would have been so great if this is what preempted the car. So we were going to do a stupid prank. You upped our game. We got the car.

0

Chapter 7: What is the significance of the revenge prank on Rachel?

3090.175 - 3095.364 Ryder Strong

Earned Feeney's respect, you know, because it was smarter than anything. Yeah. All right. Yeah.

0

3095.805 - 3104.86 Angela Moore

Yeah. It also would be then even more offensive that like I helped you with the first one. Although then I guess the whole point was.

0

3105 - 3105.321 Corey Matthews

Right.

0

3105.723 - 3124.98 Angela Moore

I wouldn't be able to be quite as offended because they involved me in the first one. Right. Versus this one is like the very first prank you do after I join, you don't even include me on, but yeah. Topanga assures them she was just kidding. She'd never want to go against Corey and Sean. Rachel regroups with Angela. This isn't fair. It's two against three. Angela agrees. We need more troops.

0

3125.4 - 3130.385 Angela Moore

Rachel nods. We need someone highly intelligent, cagey with a cracky mind.

3130.405 - 3130.945 Ryder Strong

Set it up.

3131.706 - 3132.827 Angela Moore

Set it up. Set it up.

3132.847 - 3135.309 Ryder Strong

Set it up. Set it up. Set it up. Optical flip.

3136.13 - 3143.42 Angela Moore

Cut to the boy's apartment. Eric is trying to open a can by twisting the lid off. A freshly frosted tips.

Chapter 8: How does the episode conclude with the bear scene?

3143.82 - 3167.751 Angela Moore

Jack stands nearby and on as Eric frustratingly grunts. I'm having trouble opening this jar. Jack points out that's because it's a can. We see Rachel and Angela in the corner of the room watching it all unfold. Rachel lunges toward Jack. We choose you. Eric begs, no, choose me. But their attention is solely on Jack. You have to be on our side. We're outnumbered. Again, Eric volunteers.

0

3167.851 - 3186.918 Angela Moore

I'll be on your side. Then Sean jumps in. He's with Corey and Topanga in the kitchen. Jack, you're my brother. Brothers can't be on opposite sides of a war. He then pulls Jack over to their side. Sorry, ladies, but that's the way it is and there's nothing you can do. Rachel sashays up to Jack and grabs his hand. Could be really fun to be on the same side. Eric lowers his voice, still desperate.

0

3187.199 - 3202.522 Angela Moore

I'm fine. Jack is in sore soul, you think? Topanga tries to snap him out of the tramp. Jack, you know how good Corey and Sean are at this. You don't want to go against them. Rachel persists with flirting. You know, Jack, we were close once. Who knows what can happen?

0

3202.662 - 3210.713 Ryder Strong

You were in a relationship once. Not just close. They were like in love for a moment and then broke up off camera.

0

3210.813 - 3212.716 Angela Moore

Mostly in love off camera.

3212.916 - 3213.838 Ryder Strong

Yeah.

3213.978 - 3217.362 Angela Moore

It's all like such a waste of character.

3217.422 - 3222.229 Ryder Strong

It was because it was actually a really interesting relationship or could have been. Yes, could have been.

3222.249 - 3222.349

Yeah.
