Okay, Xerox, Hoover and Kleenex are synonymous with their product wherever I've been. Can't say I've ever been somewhere people say Chiclets instead of Gum though ...
I think the Chiclets thing is perhaps a European thing (or at least an Iberian thing). In Spanish, we call it chicle. In Catalan chiclet. It comes from Nahuatl tzictli, so I'm not sure it has anything to do with the Chiclets brand or both derive from the original word.
I know it was said the students won't be seen using the Italian hand gesture like the rest of the family until the epilogue
But will we see Scarlett using it? She has to have been around the family at least as much as Eileen if not more.
Also, I think it'd be really nice if we start seeing more of the cast learning and or using sign language, ideally before but also during the epilogue.
Scarlett used her hands to communicate with her mother, so it's harder for her to adopt other people's gestures.
About sign language, I have something ready for v.0.17.
Yes, it's only a reference to her daughter.
Also, you have Newport much closer to Santa Barbara than it is. An hour south of Santa Barbara is Malibu. An hour north of Newport is Long Beach. To get from Santa Barbara to Newport would probably be 3 and a half to 4 hours since you're traveling through the black hole of traffic that is LA.
To answer the question about 2 19 y.o.s having a wedding with alcohol. They probably could for their parents/guests but wouldn't be allowed to drink themselves. You can join the military, kill and die for your country but you can't have a beer*.
*unless you go to Mexico.
Newport isn't Newport Beach. They are different places. Newport is where Morro Bay and Baywood-Los Osos are so, according to Google Maps, it's 1h50 (107 miles/171 km) from Santa Barbara.
