(Recorded on November 5th, 2023) This week, we’ve got the eighteenth episode of My So-Called Life, “Weekend.” Patty and Graham are headed to the saddest inn this side of the Allegheny River with Uncle Neil and his surprise girlfriend, Cheryl. While packing for the trip, Camille offers Patty her handcuffs—let’s hope she sanitizes after each use. When Graham comes into the room, Patty ends up hiding the handcuffs underneath the 500 decorative pillows on her bed. Patty finally learns that Hallie is no longer engaged and you can hear her screaming internally. At the inn, Patty wants to do activities and the rest of the crew want to get drunk and abandon her to find alcohol, since they are staying at the only dry inn in the western hemisphere. Instead of ice skating, Patty spends her afternoon sitting on a couch in the common area and annoying Warren the inn keeper, a man not suited for the hospitality industry. At dinner, Patty deals with her abandonment issues by getting drunk on contraband ginger flavored brandy to prove to everyone that she’s not a stick-in-the-mud (it only sort of works). Back at the Chase house, Rickie is spending the weekend with Angela and Danielle. While he’s there, Rayanne drops by under the guise of trying to collect $6 from him (but we all know she wants to see Angela). Of course she finds the handcuffs and and proceeds to handcuff herself to the bed. Too bad Patty accidentally brought the key with her to the worst inn in Pennsylvania. Angela, Rickie, Danielle, Sharon, and eventually Brian spend the rest of the weekend trying to free Rayanne from the headboard; all that’s missing is the Benny Hill theme. We have some wildcards for our biggest winners and losers; and we are treated to a quintessential 90’s needle drop. Meaghan and George discuss the Milli Vanilli documentary (love!); Graham licking Patty’s jaw (definitely don’t love); why there wasn’t any alcohol at this inn (Warren is a buzzkill); and how we would have preferred if Uncle Neil was played by Jon Lovitz.
