S4E6 Mike's daughter in law


.....the conversation on the front porch. They were discussing her breaking up with some guy.

I dont remember her dating anyone. It felt like i missed an episode somewhere.

Wth?

reply

It wasn't about anyone she was dating. She was talking about her deceased husband (Mike's son), and something that had transpired at the support group meeting 2 episodes prior (S04E04-Talk)

I'm sorry but I have to say I think you are wrong. I just listened to it again, twice, and it seems she clearly was dating the guy Mike attacked in the group setting. My issue is it is too vague, because we weren't aware of the relationship prior to the convo on the porch.

You should listen to it again and see what you think.

Either way, it was way too nebulous, which is unlike these writers.

reply

You need to quote the exact dialogue you're talking about word for word, because I have no idea what you're talking about re: her dating the guy Mike confronted in the meeting. I never picked up on any connection other than them all being members of the same support group.

Dang. Okay.

When i get time.

reply

okay here it is:

mike knocks on door. stacey answers.

mike apologizes for criticizing the guy openly in the group setting. then...

STACEY 'he left me quite the mess'

MIKE 'i can see that'

STACEY 'it'll be okay, eventually. nita is not happy. maybe you ought to call her'

MIKE 'probably better if i dont'

STACEY 'you know i would never forget matty'

MIKE 'i know. no one expects you to wear a hair shirt the rest of your life'

STACEY 'same goes for you'

MIKE 'can i pick up kaylee from school tomorrow?'

STACEY 'that would be a big help, thanks'



there it is. i don't understand what the 'i would never forget matty' comment could possibly have to do with mike chewing out that other guy in the group session.

someone enlighten me please!

yes i am aware they were talking about mike calling out that dude in the group session. still, what does 'you know i would never forget matty' have to do with that?

i eagerly await your explanation.

(full convo is posted here in bold btw)

Buzz,

I don't think they're talking about the guy at the meeting in this scene, other than when she says to call Nita about the guy, the line 'I would never forget Matty' is a reference to a previous conversation they had earlier in the episode. Watch the meeting again. She said something about forgetting Matty. Then she wanted to assure Mike that would never happen.

reply

oh okay, i will check that out. makes sense.
