I have I remember the episode where the boys went to a ranger game and Ross was hidden faced with the puck
and we're sitting in the emergency room and joey of course has the puck it's cuz he somehow got it and sure burrs got the
Bandage on his face and Jimmy goes eh Leblanc, and I look up and he goes
And I and it was it's just that little sort of seed that [he] gives you. That's the thing [about] him
He doesn't say a lot he just kind of knows
He gives you credit for being an artist and he and I kind of went. Oh okay, so it became this issue
And then I look at Davis and he's pissed off
And that was the downbeat for the scene and it was and it was great, but it was is his idea
Thanks, Jimmy forgot about that episode. Yeah. It was great. So let me tell you a little more about it
