Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber are recounting the moment from '90s Con the fans didn't see — when they locked themselves in a bathroom after Sweetin ripped the handle off the door.
Speaking on their rewatch podcast, How Rude, Tanneritos! about a season 5 episode of Full House in which Joey grabs a doorknob and yanks it off the door completely, the two recounted the time they did the same thing.
"You did it at '90s con," Barber said of Sweetin. "The bathroom."
"I did," Sweetin interjected.
Barber added that Sweetin "ripped the thing right off."
"We couldn't get out of the bathroom," Barber said.

"That's right, we were in there together, weren't we?" Sweetin said.
"Yes, we had to wait for someone to come in so we could get out," Barber affirmed. "We were banging on the door from the inside. This was a Full House episode. We recreated it without even meaning to."
Barber added: "We were like, 'Oh, crap, there's a press line right now. We're missing things.' "
Fortunately, a staffer found the two and got them out, with Sweetin sheepishly letting them know what happened.
"And they were like, 'What did you do?' And I just handed them the door handle. Like, I walked up to one of the people working there and I was like, 'Hi. I don't know where you want me to put this,' " she said.
"So awkward — so on brand for you, Jodie Sweetin," Barber added.
Sweetin added that the same thing happened on the set of a Lifetime movie she starred in.
"I, like, shut the door, and it was an old house. So the door frame kinda it, like, wouldn't quite shut. And I was like, 'I can do it.' And I wedged it shut. And then that was it," she said with a laugh.
Sweetin and Barber both appeared on the original show Full House, which aired from 1987 to 1995, and its follow-up, Fuller House, which aired from 2016 to 2020.
The duo has said on their podcast they'd be open to another revival — but would need some time first.
"We need some more time. It's too soon," Sweetin said on the podcast. "But I absolutely would do it. Again, if we could come back and like, finally, I feel like do that ridiculous sort of adult sitcom because then we would be... You know, give us another 15 years or whatever."
Sweetin continued: "The kids that were watching Fuller House will now be the age, like, in their 20s with their own [kids], so I feel like all the generations would have moved up enough that you could do kind of a bawdy, Golden Girls-esque silliness of the three." The three would be Barber's neighbor Kimmy Gibbler, alongside Sweetin's Stephanie Tanner and her big sister D.J., played by Candace Cameron Bure.
