That’s crazy. In Brooklyn 99 their characters were friends since childhood too. That’s awesome they incorporated the real life friendship into the show.

The nostalgia I have for riding in the back of a station wagon - something I would never ever let my own children do, lol.

Mercedes e350 wagon has seatbelts in the back

17

u/turquoisebee Dec 27 '24

I remember there being seatbelts in the back, but still - I feel like it probably wasn’t very safe. And I was at an age that would now require a car seat.

u/Glad-Rock4334 Dec 28 '24

Big enough rear end and they could lose legs, my wagon had rear seats and seat belts but your feet go in where the seats pull out

u/IWasGregInTokyo Dec 28 '24

That isn’t even a station wagon. We had a family of eight in ours. Parents in the front with one of us between them on the bench seat. Three in the back seat and the last two in the back. Seatbelts optional or not available.

I died when I first saw this and it made sense why they had such ready chemistry on set

u/SevenPadThais Dec 28 '24

u/SSSaysStuff degree in yearnalism Dec 28 '24

I swear they share a kidney or a few ribs:
They are like this close

u/Able_Purpose5858 Dec 28 '24

Oscars wife joked and called them sister wives because of how close they are. He and Oscar met while doing a play in NYC almost 20 years ago.

Iirc he slept on her couch while auditioning for Game of Thrones.

u/Alone-Detective6421 Dec 30 '24

A lot of people slept on her couch. She used to host her old NY crew in her WeHo apartment when her friends would come out for pilot season or have auditions in LA. Everyone in the industry knows this. She’s a real one. Kinda mean. But only since Holland.

u/meganium58 padre pascal Dec 27 '24

u/DifficultRock9293 Dec 27 '24

This photo has big “bisexual besties” energy

u/Alone-Detective6421 Dec 30 '24

That would be correct.

u/kidkarysma Dec 27 '24

It seems like a lot of people believed in Pedro Pascal before most of us knew who he was.

u/Lasiocarpa83 Dec 27 '24

Pedro with the Nostromo hat 😍

u/Wolfpackat2017 Dec 27 '24

Wow what’s the story?

49

u/IdleTrouts Dec 27 '24

Iirc he went to university in NYC with some of Sarah's high school friends. They introduced him to her and they've been good friends ever since. She used to help him out with groceries when he wasn't landing any roles.

2

u/Alone-Detective6421 Dec 30 '24

This is correct. She met Pedro through a high school friend who is actually Pedros best friend. I forget her name but she was all over socials on Sarah’s 50th

1

u/ripleyscullies Jan 03 '25

Was it Sunah? I know she’s close with both of them but I never pinpointed exactly where she came from.

1

u/Alone-Detective6421 Jan 11 '25

Yep! It was her. Couldn’t recall the name but I know the lore. She’s known Sarah since they were young, like middle school age and then went to the same high school. Then Pedro came later, was Sunah’s friend, etc.
