PCV line quick disconnects

Is there some insider's technique or trick to getting the PCV line quick disconnect fittings to release? I want to put a Mishimoto catch-can in my '17 Ecoboost, but I can't get the line to disconnect. There are YouTube videos that show guys casually popping them off, but I just can't seem to get mine off, and I've squeezed, pushed, and twisted until it felt like I might break something. How exactly do you get yours to let go?

You push the L shaped piece of plastic(gray or blue) to the opposite side of the slot it's already resting against. Little hard to explain. While holding it in that position, push the connect down(as if you were pushing it on) and then pull it off.

Well, heck, that's easy! Thanks for the tip. Like most things, it's simple, once you know how it's done.
