Listen "Ep40—Parent Trap Triplets"
Episode Synopsis
When twins aren't enough to cause mayhem among their parent's choice of fiancés, why not increase the number of identical kids for an extra dose of abnormal? That's the formula Disney followed in the third movie of their Parent Trap saga, Parent Trap III, which is the topic of discussion for today's podcast episode. When triplets Lisa, Jessie, and Megan come back home after separately studying abroad over the summer, they find one of their number has brought with her an enigmatic boyfriend known only as Hawk...and then they find out well after the airport that their dad met someone while they were out and is tying the knot. Things get weirder from there, as we're introduced to Susan, played again by Haley Mills, who comes on the scene as the interior decorator for daddy Jeffrey's home, courtesy of his bride to be. Oh, and did we mention that Lisa left a boyfriend at home who wants continue where they left off? Her solution, of course, is to play the old Parent Trap game of "Switch the Lookalike," essentially enlisting her sister to make the moves on her old boyfriend while she continues her infatuation with the ultimate surfer/biker, Hawk. And if that isn't enough, think about what happens when the triplets decide to fix Susan up with their dad mere days before his wedding? With a plot like this, what's the use of social media feeds? And if you feel so inclined, hang about until the ending of today's show for a special announcement that will shake up Becky and Jake's choice of future episodes.
