BOB'S BURGERS 2.03 - Synchronized Swimming

[inthedarktrees]

A young woman training to perform as a mermaid at Weeki Wachee Springs in Florida. Lessons include breath control, underwater ballet, synchronized swimming, graceful movement, and underwater dining etiquette. Audiences watch the mermaids perform from an underground theater embedded in the side of the spring.

Care and Feeding of a Mermaid, 1961

Highkey one of the most underrated and overlooked jokes in the entire show😂

Bob's Burgers, Synchronized Swimming (S2: E3)

I was dancing with a giant sandwich (grilled cheese.) The dance was kind of like synchronized swimming.

I had the stupidest AU idea where Kallus is a ballet dancer, and Zeb is a hip hop dancer. Kind of like a reverse flash dance because that movie sucks.

Kallus lives his entire life around an extremely rigid schedule. His parents put him in ballet when he was about 3, but he just loved it, so he stuck with it. Unfortunately, as he got older he had to push himself farther and harder to keep up. Plus, keeping up with the very strict body regulations is very difficult for someone of his size, so his attempts to keep his weight down manifest in some very unhealthy ways. Also Thrawn shows up as a new choreographer and just starts bullying everyone, buy he really hates Kallus (I haven't quite figured out why yet, but dance teachers don't always need a reason to hate you)

Zeb has been a long time member of Ghost Alliance Gym, where he teaches hip hop classes with the specter dance group (him Kanan and Hera are all like co teachers). It's a fun after-school rec program to give kids something to do, so it's way more affordable and less snooty than Imperial Dance up town. Zeb actually used to be in a cultural dance group years ago, until the school was forced to shut down (I'm going to pretend that lasat dancing is like Ukrainian dancing because that's what I have the most experience with, and it's my AU and I can do what I want).

They meet when they both go to the shoe store because they wore holes in their dance shoes.

Zeb: so you're a dancer?

Kallus: how perceptive *but in kind of a flirty way*

Zeb so what kind of dancing do you do, like zumba?

Kallus: *slightly offended* no, I dance! Not 'cheerleading', not 'jazzerscize'. Dance!

(Based off a real conversation my mom had with her co-worker)

Eventually Kallus has to decide if he's gonna go support Zeb and go watch his performance at the rec-center, or follow his contract and perform the Nut Cracker (hehe) at the theater.

Zeb has to decide if he's going to go support Kallus and watch him in the theater, or be in his little holiday concert. Even though at this point they're fighting, they still care about eachother.

I don't know, I thought this would be a fun holiday story based off my 16+ years of dance experience (including but not limited to hip hop, tap, ballet, Ukrainian, acro and more). But no one was ever as mean to me as Thrawn is to Kallus, and I never worried about how my body shape fits into the dance.

I say I love synchronized swimming but when all my muscles hurt and I’m pulling gelatin out of my hair for weeks I think a bit differently.

Frinktober 2023 Day 7: Season 6 - 10 Episode.

Lisa's elaborate synchronized swimming routine from "Bart of Darkness."

See the whole prompt list here.

[arcane-strangeness]

sure at showcases and meets synchronized swimming routines looks all pretty and seamless but practice is another story

we're scratching and hitting and falling on top of and running into eachother, tearing off noseclips and goggles alike, turning purple from lack of oxygen, and thats after one runthrough of a routine. there was an occasion where one of the girls somehow bit her shoulder coming down from a spin. one of the bases on my spin lift this year twisted my ankle so hard it cracked twice and they were convinced they broke or dislocated it. last year someone got a concussion from hitting the side of the pool

we're broken and beaten and battered and bruised but it's a hell of a good time

[nevermind-stop-forever]

missed some gelatin that was still stuck in my hair

Day in Fandom History: March 25…

In hopes of getting out of PE class, the Belcher Kids decide to create a bogus independent study of synchronized swimming, which later backfired when Linda found out and made it an actual synchronized swimming class. “Synchronized Swimming” premiered on this day, 12 Years Ago.

I wish synchro was year round :(

I already really miss all my synchro buddies (I've known them for 3 months and I would die for all of them)

*I am actively dying PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE*
