I remember the scene where Spinner was choking on some food and Marco was gonna do the Heimlich on him but Spinner refused cuz Marco is gay. And then Marco proceeded to tell Spinner the reasons why he doesn't like him, for example his hairdo, basically roasting him in the process.

[rileytaylors]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he even nailed the quiet "I'm gay"

[mhernandez]

They can't do it with a straight face but I guess that's the point

[Andrea-ouuu]

when they reversed the roles and spinner said "because I'm gay " and Marco brushes past him 😂😂😂😂

[TrishaAwesomeness]

This is the greatest thing ever! Can we have more OGs recreate some scenes?

[skinni_the_PhBear]

I like how they both turned around at the EXACT same time during the second take. 😂

[bebespeaks]

How about a reenactment of "when in doubt, you kiss Craig!?." And at least one relationship scene per couple, a few Paige scenes, Emma experiencing her most dramatic moments, and more Spinner.

The entire recreated scene with Spinner as the gay one had me falling off my chair laughing.

[tiffanyheartsu]

I can't take the scene seriously when spinner says "PAHSTA" lol

[zlymaciek]

Jeez, 2003... I feel old... And I'm just 23 yr... :/

[evajonhson]

LOL the way Spencer said I'm gay was funny

[alma]

I think they should have reversed it where Spin was on a date with a guy and came out as straight.

[emblais]

The way spinner said because I am gay 😂

[thedrunkalpaca]

"because I'm gay!"
*claps loudly* Beautiful, just beautiful *throws roses*

[tishlynn]

When the opening said 13 years later I grabbed my heart!!! It can't be OMG!

[Moreeelifeee]

It’s oddly nice to see them laughing during such an intense scene

[everlasting]

Firstly, when Adamo turned and ran, I started laughing so hard it triggered a coughing fit and I saw starts.
Second, I really miss this generation of characters. This was my favorite show in Jr high/high school. I had the biggest crush on Adamo, Darco was my very first OTP, and were it not for Ellie Nash, I never would have made it to 10th grade. Her bravery gave me the courage to tell my mom about my cutting and seek help with my problems. Her's is the story I always wanted to have.

LMAOOO this was so great, especially the reversed part

[stevenpeterson]

That was bloody awesome! I especially loved when Spin and Marco switched roles. I believe the reason they kept laughing was because the line "because I'm gay" has no meaning for Spin. Gay or straight, everyone wants to be with Spinner. ;-P

The bloopers are literally the best thing in this whole world oh my god I have tears from laughter
