00:12:13I'm sensing a little bit of anger from you Jen
00:12:15I'm gonna be honest with you and I think that you should get your vitamin D tested
00:12:20You could schedule a test from quest right at your home, so I'm not angry actually and there's nothing wrong with my vitamin D
00:12:28Can I just say you're diminishing my feelings by putting them all down to a physical ailment?
00:12:32I have a teenage daughter who hates me half the time. I've got a son who doesn't he doesn't want to be touched
00:12:38I'm splitting up from my husband. And you know what? The worst part is we're paying you to water your plants
00:12:45Technically Jen not to correct you but there are not
00:12:48Plants, you know, they they are flowering plants, but they're not flowers or plants. It's it's important. We use the right terminology
00:12:56His
00:12:58Flowers really bugs me Jennifer. I believe it's a flowering plant obsession
00:13:02And have you noticed he starts spritzing every time he talks about anger? Yes

00:46:46I thought we were telling the kids tonight at dinner and that's what we've spoken about feels a little soon
00:46:51That's not to rush into things. I'm sorry. Did something change because last week you were so last week. Am I right?
00:46:57Hahaha, I say so many things, you know words just come out of my mouth
00:47:01It's just trying things but this week I'm getting this vibe right there
00:47:05You two are just great people great people who can either hey stay together or make the same mistakes with less great people
00:47:13I don't know just spitballing here. Why don't we just stay together you guys? Are you serious?
00:47:19I'm detecting a little bit of anger in that voice. Well, you just turned around after months of discussion and change your mind
00:47:26I don't even know what I'm doing. There's nothing there. There's nothing there. I
00:47:34Know what I'm doing. I'm keeping you two from burning it all down. What are you doing?
00:47:39Cooling you off cool off

00:48:01With the water
00:48:04Professional who recommended him bill bill from your work
00:48:08You're right. It was a hundred percent. And by the way, you have lost like ten years. This haircut is so cute
00:48:18Does that mean we're touching each other again?

00:48:31Some countries you'd have to
00:48:49Oh

01:11:02Oh
01:11:06There's just one condition the parents of the winning student have to stay married for all four years
01:11:11That's a very unusual condition for a scholarship. I mean, it's a religious foundation
01:11:16I think they just want to promote marriage, you know, but it's not a big deal
01:11:20You guys are married the American Foundation for theater and marriage. Oh, sweetie. That seems bogus
