Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone,

Today, I covered S1E5: The Lock In, which aired on October 20, 2021.

in this episode Dean is reluctant to attend the annual church lock-in until Kim tells him it's where she got her first kiss; then he enlists his friends to help him pair up with Keisa.

This was a fun episode, I loved seeing Dean's other friends, the one  we haven't seen until this episode, Norman and loveable and adorable returning Hampton. We also met Charlene, the pastor's daughter. such a sweetheart.

When Kim let's slide that she got her first kiss 5 years earlier at the church lock in which is  basically a sleep over for boys and girls in a church that are twelve. YIKES!

Lillian their mother takes it upon herself to chaperone the event. Dean is so hoping he gets his first kiss with Keisa, however sometimes things don't always go the way we plan.

The Ten Commandments I found out is 3 hours and 40 minutes, never seen the movie, but I'd say needs more than a five minute intermission. Plus there are multiples versions of the film, including a really bad looking CGI animated version.

I love the little comparisons I pull put from this one to the OG The Wonder Years. I don't want to give any away here to spoil the episode ending.

Join me next week when I cover a double episode podcast with S1E6: Be Prepared, which aired on October 27, 2021.

In this episode when Coach Long and Bill take the boys on a camping trip as part of their newly formed scout troop, their starkly different approaches to the outdoors show Dean that his father isn't good at everything.

and 

S1E7: Independence Day, which aired on November 3, 2021.

In this episode Bill comes up with a solution for Kim's car desires, but the solution is only pleasing to him; Dean is worried about seeming uncool when Clisby ends up chaperoning him and his friends.

Have a great week everyone!
