Watch What Crappens Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens.

Ronnie Karam (0:24)

This is part two of a two-part recap. If you're like, hey, wait a minute, I didn't hear part one, guys, it's because we put out a lot of recaps. Go back and listen to part one, okay? It's before this one.

Bye, enjoy the show.

Ben Mandelker (0:38)

So Haley actually says it best. She goes, I honestly, I black out when she talks to me. Like, I really don't know what she's saying half the time because I'm just so bored. She's like, fricking strawberry jam. And they're like, what? What's wrong with strawberry jam? And she's like, you know, the jam on the table, you ever go to a diner and there's jam, and you don't care about the jam, it's just like jam, it's just there. Take it or leave it.

Ronnie Karam (1:01)

I thought that was such a good...

Ben Mandelker (1:03)

At first, I was confused when she said that she was like strawberry jam, but then when she actually contextualized it as just like the generic jam that's on the diner, I thought that was so funny. But then I also love when Erica's like, honestly, sometimes I put it on my toast.

Ronnie Karam (1:20)

Like, wait a second, guys. I mean, is that weird to like jam? I mean, I have jam tacos. I always have time for a taco.

Ben Mandelker (1:29)

She's like, well, yeah, sometimes, I mean, Daisy and I, we're salt. Like, too much, you get hypotension. Like, you can't handle it. But Erin's just jam. She's so boring. I'd rather read a book. And I love that. Like, that like the book is the second, second most boring thing.

She's like, she's so bad. I'd actually like to read a book.

Ronnie Karam (1:50)

I'd rather read Carole's book to be specifically. And they're like, oh, wow, damn. But it's great.

Ben Mandelker (1:57)

It's just great to have a cast member call out Erin for this at last when we, the audience, have been enduring it for so long. It's like, thank you for addressing this on screen. We're not crazy here.

Ronnie Karam (2:10)

Yeah. So Daisy's like, oh my God, she called her boring, boring. I'd rather you call me like a bad mother than be called boring.

Well, by the end of the episode, people probably will.

Ben Mandelker (2:22)

Yeah.

Ronnie Karam (2:22)

Because her husband's like, are you going to do anything for this child? She's like, I'm busy. No, you do it.

So then, so Haley's like, it doesn't add. I'm going to call her Jammie McJamstar.

Ben Mandelker (2:39)

So now it's like things going on around New York City. Jessel gets an invitation, inside gets a cab and then Haley, there's like a Taco Bell drive-thru window. That's just like an actual window on the sidewalk. And she goes up and gets her Taco Bell. And she's like, okay, honk, honk. I'll see you later. Cause I'm in a car, it's a drive-thru. Okay, bye.

Ronnie Karam (3:01)

And I like that she's trying to make it look like, look at me. I'm so fun. I go to Taco Bell. Would you like sauce? Sure. What kind?

You choose girl.

Ben Mandelker (3:11)

They're like, we only have strawberry jam.

Ronnie Karam (3:13)

Stop pretending. What are you going to put that on a protein bar? Get out of here. So now we go to Sy's apartment and she's talking to her lawyer and she's like, I want to go on this statement at Net Worth.

Ronnie Karam (3:23)

All right. Here's what we got. House, car, car, house, kids.

Ronnie Karam (3:28)

What do the kids spend? What do the kids want?

Ben Mandelker (3:30)

Jesus Christ, this is hard.

Ronnie Karam (3:31)

Fucking David. I'll tell you this.

Ronnie Karam (3:33)

I've learned from my next marriage, we're getting the brain up.

Ben Mandelker (3:37)

Then we go to Daisy's apartment and the whole gang is at home. Eugene, her husband is there helping their son Quentin with a spelling bee and Quentin spells beginner wrong, which will be a problem. Then Daisy is like, do you want to have wine, Eugene?

Ronnie Karam (3:55)

Not if you're advanced.

Ben Mandelker (3:59)

Eugene does not want to drink, which we know is an issue for her because he pretended like he liked to drink when they first met.

Ronnie Karam (4:04)

And Daisy's like, that's why I did her.

Ben Mandelker (4:07)

Yeah.

Ronnie Karam (4:07)

And she's one of the- Or she was just too drunk. Were you sure that you don't want like a little tiny benches with me? I can put it on ice for you. Oh my God, just drink your own drink. No, I don't want it.
