Your heart was glass, I dropped it

Angela & Uncle Jerry identify 'your heart was glass' as a likely allusion to Blondie's 'Heart of Glass,' a song about lost love. Uncle Jerry notes the lyric 'seemed like the real thing' from the Blondie song may also connect to the later lyric 'you'll find the real thing instead,' creating a double reference. He says it feels 'kind of difficult to have to say your heart was glass and not be referencing' Blondie.
