What happens when the Pearsons go to rehab?
On today's episode of That Was Us, we'll be discussing Season 2, Episode 11, The Fifth Wheel. The Pearsons gather under unexpected circumstances. Jack surprises the family with a trip to the Poconos.
If someone had told Charles and Melanie that after their Tinder match, they would start a channel with crazy tasks together. So really crazy. Spend five days on a lonely island, crawl down a zip line on a belt, crack one million views, climb a wall with a lot of buttons and jump off a parachute in Egypt? The two would never have believed that. But that's the thing with Tinder. It takes you to places you would never have expected. Wherever it takes you. It starts with a swipe. Tinder.
You know, Sterling, bath time at my house used to feel like trying to get a cat into the water. I'd be out here making deals, bribing, you know, with more bedtime stories. You're negotiating like I was closing some kind of million-dollar deal just to get the kids into the tub.
I feel you, bro. But let me tell you something. Dabble and dollop changed the game for me. It's not just bath time anymore. It's a full-on experience. All-natural, clean, vegan, tear-free bubble baths, body washes, shampoos, lotions, and even bath bombs. Without all the gross stuff. No artificial dyes, no parabens, no phthalates. Just pure, simple, good-for-your-skin ingredients.
As a mom, I love when something is fun and safe at the same time. These products were created by a natural ingredient expert and mom of three, so you know they are made with kids in mind. They work for all skin types, even the littlest ones with sensitive skin. They've even earned the Good Housekeeping seal of approval.
Yeah, right now, Bear really loves the melon and the lemon, and Aoife goes like straight strawberry, like hard strawberry.
Oh, and big news, Dabble and Dollop is now at Target. That's right. You can grab their bath bomb variety packs and six of their bubble bath scents nationwide in Target stores and on Target.com.
There's something about seeing it on the shelf, grabbing a bottle and tossing it in your cart next to the stuff you didn't even mean to buy.
Bro, you go in for one thing, you walk out with a full cart. But this time, at least you're leaving with something that makes bath time easier. So next time you're at Target, swing by the bath aisle and grab a bottle. Or if you're more of an online shopper, head to Target.com. And if you want an extra deal, visit DabbleAndDollop.com and use the code THATWASUS15 for 15% off your first purchase. So, Mandy. Hello. How we doing?
We're great. Let's do it again.
You look great. Sully looks great. Everybody looks so good. Thanks. I'm happy to be amongst you people.
Always.
I must be doing something right. Amen. We're talking about the fifth wheel. We just finished our big three trilogy. We ended off with Kevin getting in a DUI, not an accident, but pulled over by the police.
And handcuffed.
Handcuffed with my daughter. His niece. Tess, his niece, in the backseat of the car, right?
Yeah.
So we come to this episode. And what's the first thing that we see? They're in the past, in the background, in the past, I should say. Playing a little Monopoly.
I like, though, calling, since we work in the industry, calling our past the background.
It is part of our background.
It's so good.
I'll stick with the past storyline.
The background actors in my story.
Totally. I am main character energy.
That's right. That's right. Number one on my call sheet.
cross out all the numbers and figure it out on my sheet. Randall's getting glasses. He's concerned about his little Urkel jokes that could be coming. Rebecca and Kate, you can see there's this small thing of just trying to get her to eat as healthily as possible, right? You know, hey baby, let me give you an apple instead of whatever it was that you were about to ask for. Dad comes in. He's got great news. He's like, a friend of mine's got this cabin up in the Poconos. He's like, he's going to give it to us for time being. We'll pick up Kevin after we're there because he's at football camp. We're going to go have a great time. And we realized that they were talking about the Pearsons. The famous cabin.
