1 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,800 What does the nanny do? OK, so we're done. 2 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,160 Goodbye. You. 3 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,720 Shut it off. Do not twist my words. 4 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,200 Do not make me a victim, sweetie. 5 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,080 Just look at the mountain. That's what you saw that day. 6 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,520 Just the knife in the kidneys over all these years and the 7 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,720 sacrifices that I made to love you. 8 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,960 I'm going to let you in on a little secret. 9 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:59,560 Robyn's Secret Season 6 Episode 6 A Tale is old as time song is 10 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:04,280 old as rhyme. Robyn's secret episode. 11 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,200 It's Robyn's secret, everyone. The episode you've all been 12 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,120 waiting for, where we get a lovely speech from Robyn in the 13 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,360 family room at church. We're about to get a lesson in 14 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,360 internalized misogyny. Absolutely. 15 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,840 Ordinarily we don't talk about the previously on or whatever's 16 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,760 because it's just summarizing shit we've already talked too 17 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,160 much about. But in this episode, I thought 18 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,360 it was worth pointing out because there's new footage that 19 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,840 we haven't seen before, which is interview style, where the 20 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,280 adults talk about needing to figure out their new 21 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,080 relationships again now that they're at the Brown family 22 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,080 cul-de-sac. They're teeing up that now that 23 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,960 they're in the homes, they're in this new transitionary period. 24 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,040 And the second part of the coming up on was another 25 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,480 reminder about Meri's baby decision, which we have avoided 26 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,400 for a little while, thank God, but it's back. 27 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,120 That story's back. It's rear in its ugly head 28 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,400 again. It absolutely is. 29 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,600 So when the episode opens, there's this exterior shot of 30 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,000 the cul-de-sac in the different homes and the music that's 31 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,640 playing is so modern for this show. 32 00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,880 It's the first episode where there's this music playing and 33 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,240 it's like Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo, Doo Doo. 34 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,040 It's the lame version of what reality shows will be playing 35 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,600 today instead of the all music that they usually would play on 36 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,200 the show. That's very kind of, oh, in the 37 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,680 lower bottom of the free music bin, you know, like now this is 38 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,920 where they maybe started paying for a royalty or something Like 39 00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:39,480 it's, it's a whole new vibe, which is exciting because now 40 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,560 we're at the Brown family cul-de-sac. 41 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,920 First thing first, we're going to bury a time capsule. 42 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,360 This comes out of nowhere. We've been in the houses. 43 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,440 Just a little hot minute here and got to bury a time capsule. 44 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,880 They just always have to decide to do weird shit. 45 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,920 Have you ever buried a time capsule in your own yard? 46 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,760 No. I feel like this is something 47 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,720 that you do in like elementary school or other instances that 48 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,280 have to do with like an entire city burying something or like 49 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,920 what? Why are we doing this? 50 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,880 Yeah, it did come out of nowhere. 51 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,997 We're going to be burying a time capsule and it's like, OK, 52 00:03:20,997 --> 00:03:24,420 cool. Yeah, you couldn't even fucking 53 00:03:24,420 --> 00:03:26,955 finish your family mission statement yet and now you're 54 00:03:26,963 --> 00:03:29,144 going to bury a time capsule, OK. 55 00:03:29,152 --> 00:03:35,064 It totally makes sense. We go to the adults on the couch 56 00:03:35,064 --> 00:03:39,572 and I think that they're trying to tie this in because 57 00:03:39,572 --> 00:03:43,510 they start referencing what it felt like living in the separate 58 00:03:43,510 --> 00:03:45,648 homes again. And Janelle references feeling 59 00:03:45,656 --> 00:03:48,252 like a single mom in the rentals. 60 00:03:48,260 --> 00:03:54,209 And Robyn makes a weird comment, though that is something new. 61 00:03:54,217 --> 00:03:58,720 She says it will be eye opening about the damage done over the 62 00:03:58,728 --> 00:04:01,200 last two years. And we'll give them an 63 00:04:01,208 --> 00:04:02,766 opportunity to prepare their relationships. 64 00:04:02,774 --> 00:04:08,890 Like OK, I guess that's true, but the use of damage done seems 65 00:04:08,890 --> 00:04:11,008 very dramatic. Yeah, assessing the damage. 66 00:04:11,016 --> 00:04:13,260 I guess there's already a bunch of damage. 67 00:04:13,268 --> 00:04:14,730 I mean, they have been talking about it. 68 00:04:14,738 --> 00:04:16,380 It's just such a dramatic way to put it. 69 00:04:16,387 --> 00:04:18,440 It is. And it's just odd to be like, 70 00:04:18,449 --> 00:04:21,435 oh, Yep, we're going to build a time capsule because now we're 71 00:04:21,442 --> 00:04:25,326 in the new homes and let's bring up again the damage that's been 72 00:04:25,326 --> 00:04:27,200 done. And oh, maybe this time capsule 73 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,310 is something that will bring us together again. 74 00:04:29,318 --> 00:04:32,067 But we haven't even finished our family missions, David. 75 00:04:32,075 --> 00:04:36,542 They try all these weird band aids all the time to get people 76 00:04:36,542 --> 00:04:40,282 together and to fix things and. And not only is this time 77 00:04:40,290 --> 00:04:43,030 capsule going to be buried by the Brown family this week, but 78 00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:47,050 this week is also going to be their first Sunday service at 79 00:04:47,058 --> 00:04:50,376 the new homes. So when they start this episode, 80 00:04:50,376 --> 00:04:52,522 they're literally like, we're going to have our first Sunday 81 00:04:52,530 --> 00:04:54,330 service and we're bearing a time capsule. 82 00:04:54,338 --> 00:04:58,838 OK, sounds good. All of which does not address 83 00:04:58,846 --> 00:05:01,160 Robyn's secret that we're aware of at this point. 84 00:05:01,168 --> 00:05:03,350 But don't worry, we're getting there pretty quick. 85 00:05:03,358 --> 00:05:05,372 Yeah, back to our weird shenanigans. 86 00:05:05,380 --> 00:05:08,867 Just, you know, trying to do things to bring the family 87 00:05:08,875 --> 00:05:09,894 together. Weird activities. 88 00:05:09,902 --> 00:05:14,340 So when we start in on the action for this episode, we're 89 00:05:14,348 --> 00:05:18,940 beginning at Meri's house, and Kody says Church at the Rentals 90 00:05:18,940 --> 00:05:22,120 was challenging. We get a outside clip of 91 00:05:22,128 --> 00:05:24,469 everybody walking over to Meri's house. 92 00:05:24,477 --> 00:05:29,040 Kody has this whole spiel about putting their phones away. 93 00:05:29,048 --> 00:05:32,312 No phones in church. Everybody put your phones away. 94 00:05:32,312 --> 00:05:33,840 Put social media down. 95 00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:40,840 The pulpit is in front of Meri's crooked mantle. 96 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:46,680 Just have to point that out. While everyone is gathering in 97 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,520 Meri's family room, Kody has a voiceover where he talks about 98 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,920 how when they moved to Las Vegas, he was under the 99 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,520 impression that people from their faith would be visiting on 100 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,760 a monthly basis, or at least driving through town on their 101 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,320 way somewhere else. And they'd stop over and they 102 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,960 would be able to have their community gathering of fellow 103 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,480 believers in the cult on a monthly basis. 104 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,400 And I'm going what? Who thinks that you're going to 105 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,240 be able to have church on a monthly basis because people are 106 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:14,680 just going to periodically visit? 107 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,560 Consistent really enough where you would be able to have 108 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,000 monthly services with visitors. 109 00:06:18,008 --> 00:06:20,640 It's like, did you ever do anything about that? 110 00:06:20,648 --> 00:06:22,819 Like, do you ever call anyone other than the weird people you 111 00:06:22,819 --> 00:06:26,040 had on the show that we met? Yeah, he thought that they would 112 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,743 have some sort of community. Did you put something out on 113 00:06:29,751 --> 00:06:32,868 Facebook? Please come to the church at my 114 00:06:32,868 --> 00:06:36,935 home once a month. Like, I don't know what he was 115 00:06:36,943 --> 00:06:39,380 assuming here, but he assumed wrong. 116 00:06:39,388 --> 00:06:42,560 Yes. And he talks about the Hebrews 117 00:06:42,568 --> 00:06:46,682 losing their culture and compares them to the Bible and 118 00:06:46,690 --> 00:06:50,739 how he's worried that the family is losing their culture because 119 00:06:50,739 --> 00:06:53,338 they've been away from it for so long. 120 00:06:53,346 --> 00:06:58,060 And when you're away from your community, you do start to lose 121 00:06:58,060 --> 00:07:03,434 the belief system of of course, he has to compare his family to 122 00:07:03,434 --> 00:07:06,988 the Hebrews and the Bible and. Oh yeah, yeah. 123 00:07:06,996 --> 00:07:10,426 No reference to Joseph Smith or Hiram Smith or whoever the hell 124 00:07:10,426 --> 00:07:13,098 the other one was that we were supposed to talk about during 125 00:07:13,106 --> 00:07:14,110 that episode. He just. 126 00:07:14,118 --> 00:07:17,526 Picks and chooses weird parts of the Bible to compare his family 127 00:07:17,526 --> 00:07:19,308 to. Those cool guys from the Old 128 00:07:19,316 --> 00:07:20,794 Testament is coming. Right. 129 00:07:20,802 --> 00:07:24,140 They show him starting this church service standing in front 130 00:07:24,140 --> 00:07:27,272 of Meri's fireplace with the crooked mantle, and they 131 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,292 interrupt with the couch moment where he's talking about how he 132 00:07:30,292 --> 00:07:33,310 needs to be more exciting because the kids are bored. 133 00:07:33,318 --> 00:07:35,994 Church is boring for children in general. 134 00:07:36,002 --> 00:07:39,945 And so, you know, whatever. Then I go back to Meri's family 135 00:07:39,945 --> 00:07:41,280 room and Christine is talking about something. 136 00:07:41,288 --> 00:07:44,227 And I felt like we were going to get something, but we really 137 00:07:44,235 --> 00:07:46,542 didn't. They just showed her talking for 138 00:07:46,542 --> 00:07:48,240 like a sentence about the Bible. 139 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,360 Be can we get nothing? Or something. 140 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,720 And then it fades out. And then there's more voiceover 141 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,727 where Kody says I asked Robyn to give a lesson about chastity 142 00:07:56,727 --> 00:07:59,520 and about sexual purity. And it's like, so why didn't you 143 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,120 just show us like 3 seconds of Christine? 144 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,160 It was so weird. I guess it was to demonstrate 145 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,920 that all the wives get up and talk in front of the family. 146 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,640 Well, we get voice over of Christine saying that Kody asks 147 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,280 each of the wives to participate in church at different points 148 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,960 and come and speak their truths about things. 149 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,920 So they show Christine standing up there and talking about, I 150 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,680 think she's talking about technology and unplugging from 151 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,480 technology because she's holding a cord. 152 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,280 And so she's talking about unplugging, I think because Kody 153 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,880 starts out all this by saying like, put your phones away, no 154 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,600 phones in church, blah, blah, blah. 155 00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:39,600 But then that's kind of all we get. 156 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,679 And I'm just assuming that that's what her spiel was about 157 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,000 because they don't let us in on it. 158 00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:48,146 And then here come the big guns. 159 00:08:48,154 --> 00:08:51,448 We're bringing in Robyn to talk about chastity. 160 00:08:51,456 --> 00:08:55,780 The big guns. I'm going to talk about the 161 00:08:55,788 --> 00:08:58,800 biggest mistake of my life, and I'm actually pretty nervous 162 00:08:58,808 --> 00:09:03,190 about it. Oh, Robyn in the biggest mistake 163 00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:05,012 of her life and her nerves, her nerves. 164 00:09:05,020 --> 00:09:07,720 So I can understand how she would be so nervous to talk 165 00:09:07,728 --> 00:09:10,504 about. She's falsely tearing up doing 166 00:09:10,512 --> 00:09:14,615 her fake look that she does. Yep, the fake tears. 167 00:09:14,623 --> 00:09:17,032 There's several fake tears in this episode for sure. 168 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,405 And so then we show Robyn standing in front of Meri's 169 00:09:20,413 --> 00:09:24,587 crooked fireplace mantle wearing her Sunday school teacher best 170 00:09:24,595 --> 00:09:27,876 outfit. Oh, girl, this outfit. 171 00:09:27,884 --> 00:09:32,320 A black sweater over another black shirt, potentially. 172 00:09:32,328 --> 00:09:36,445 I did see, like, I don't know, above her boobies, like just 173 00:09:36,453 --> 00:09:39,132 below her neck. So I thought that was a that was 174 00:09:39,132 --> 00:09:42,920 a bit much. And then an ankle length purple 175 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,520 and yellow flower skirt. Yeah, hydrangeas. 176 00:09:45,528 --> 00:09:49,980 Oh, hydrangeas. Yes, I love the hydrangeas. 177 00:09:49,988 --> 00:09:53,055 Yes. She's holding something in her 178 00:09:53,063 --> 00:09:57,920 hands as she starts her lecture. It's hard to tell what it is 179 00:09:57,928 --> 00:10:00,278 because she's cupping it in front of her as if she's about 180 00:10:00,286 --> 00:10:02,170 to give an offering to the entire family. 181 00:10:02,178 --> 00:10:04,970 Oh, but she does offer something to someone. 182 00:10:04,978 --> 00:10:09,200 In this moment, looking at her in her hydrangeas skirt get up 183 00:10:09,208 --> 00:10:14,990 and the floor length or ankle length skirt and the black top 184 00:10:14,998 --> 00:10:19,682 that's layered. I'm just reminded, I need to 185 00:10:19,690 --> 00:10:25,863 remind you all that when we first met Robyn, she was wearing 186 00:10:25,863 --> 00:10:30,140 Aeropostale. She was wearing literal clothes 187 00:10:30,140 --> 00:10:34,615 for teenagers trying to look super young, super hip, super 188 00:10:34,623 --> 00:10:38,826 young and hot. And just in with the no, in with 189 00:10:38,826 --> 00:10:42,384 the young people. And then we've also seen her 190 00:10:42,392 --> 00:10:46,867 wearing like a white nighty negligee tank top over long 191 00:10:46,875 --> 00:10:50,342 sleeves. And obviously when you go to 192 00:10:50,350 --> 00:10:54,390 church you dress nicer, but then you look around the room and 193 00:10:54,398 --> 00:10:56,280 literally nobody else is dressed up. 194 00:10:56,288 --> 00:11:01,496 Yeah, everyone else, Kody is. Kody is, but none of the kids 195 00:11:01,504 --> 00:11:05,374 are dressed nice. A lot of the other adults aren't 196 00:11:05,374 --> 00:11:10,230 dressed nice. So she is like, playing pretend 197 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:12,878 right now. Like she's standing up there in 198 00:11:12,878 --> 00:11:16,400 this outfit that she probably had to borrow from Meri. 199 00:11:16,408 --> 00:11:21,364 Like, it's just so bizarre. And we're seeing her play roles, 200 00:11:21,364 --> 00:11:26,464 you know, like she wanted to be young and hot and hip and she 201 00:11:26,464 --> 00:11:29,188 was literally wearing like Aeropostale, which is like 202 00:11:29,196 --> 00:11:32,268 preteen teen clothing at the time of this. 203 00:11:32,276 --> 00:11:34,795 And now she's trying to teach purity. 204 00:11:34,803 --> 00:11:39,560 So she's got to dress this way. It's like she's just, so she's 205 00:11:39,568 --> 00:11:41,214 something else. She's something. 206 00:11:41,222 --> 00:11:45,623 We went from the juniors to the senior section, as in the senior 207 00:11:45,623 --> 00:11:46,500 citizen. Section. 208 00:11:46,508 --> 00:11:49,438 Seriously. Pretty quick for Robyn Sermon. 209 00:11:49,446 --> 00:11:54,506 She's going to tell us two stories of girls and what 210 00:11:54,514 --> 00:11:58,216 happened to them and what they did with their purity. 211 00:11:58,224 --> 00:12:02,536 And she wants us to know that these are true stories. 212 00:12:02,544 --> 00:12:06,904 Now, what's funny is after we get through these people's 213 00:12:06,912 --> 00:12:09,878 stories of these two, you know, made-up women, just these two. 214 00:12:09,886 --> 00:12:12,424 Oh, no, just kidding, these very real women. 215 00:12:12,432 --> 00:12:16,292 And they're very real stories. What's funny is that one of 216 00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:19,080 their stories, we get some details and we get some 217 00:12:19,088 --> 00:12:22,682 heartbreak and we get some forgiveness and eventually 218 00:12:22,690 --> 00:12:26,856 triumph and the other person we get one sentence so. 219 00:12:26,864 --> 00:12:27,669 These. Stories. 220 00:12:27,677 --> 00:12:30,520 It's interesting how she Tees it up about the two stories. 221 00:12:30,528 --> 00:12:32,668 When you think about narrative and storytelling, you would 222 00:12:32,676 --> 00:12:35,335 usually think that means you're going to go on 2 journeys. 223 00:12:35,343 --> 00:12:38,972 We really only go on one journey and then literally hear like a 224 00:12:38,980 --> 00:12:40,725 sentence. And we find out it's the same 225 00:12:40,733 --> 00:12:43,960 person. And yes, these are real stories. 226 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,160 These are true stories. 227 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,320 About two girls. Yeah, sure. 228 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,960 Consider the source. It is Robyn, so of course it's 229 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,360 not all true, but some of it must be true. 230 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,960 But most of it is not she. Starts off by talking about how 231 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:05,400 your purity is a great gift that you get to give away and 232 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:10,986 setting up the tale talking about purity and holding in 233 00:13:10,986 --> 00:13:14,883 her hands. But we finally get a little bit 234 00:13:14,883 --> 00:13:17,480 of a glimpse of a silver Locket. 235 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,760 A silver heart Locket that's about the size of a palm. 236 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,720 Yeah, it's pretty big. It's pretty large. 237 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:27,080 For a Locket, Robyn starts off her tail as old as time by 238 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,480 telling us she was very chaste as a teenager. 239 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,680 But then things changed. Yes, she was kind of a good 240 00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:39,160 girl, a good child. Purity has to do with your mind 241 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,800 and your heart. It's a prize valued above all 242 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,320 jewels, she tells everyone in the family room. 243 00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:50,000 It's so valuable, more valuable than the biggest diamond in the 244 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,440 world, Your purity. But her body had urges. 245 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,800 She felt like she was missing out on something by not 246 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,040 indulging in her temptations with a boy and. 247 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,480 Her physical wants. And needs. 248 00:14:03,560 --> 00:14:08,440 And longings. Her moist caramel was just 249 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:09,880 twitching. No, just. 250 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,760 Twitching. Caramel. 251 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,160 No. Oh God. 252 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,080 Oh gosh. That's wrong. 253 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,200 I'm sorry everyone that's wrong. 254 00:14:18,208 --> 00:14:23,060 Robyn's senior year and into college, she started to question 255 00:14:23,060 --> 00:14:28,664 her faith and she is just realizing her parents have 256 00:14:28,672 --> 00:14:33,885 issues and their marriage isn't perfect and they're in plural 257 00:14:33,893 --> 00:14:38,168 marriage and she's questioning the fact that she's holding out 258 00:14:38,168 --> 00:14:40,847 on her physical wants. Why? 259 00:14:40,855 --> 00:14:44,300 Why am I doing this? And along with those unearth 260 00:14:44,308 --> 00:14:47,594 things in her life, she also realized that her parents aren't 261 00:14:47,594 --> 00:14:50,832 God. And she had been so good for so 262 00:14:50,832 --> 00:14:54,216 long, but it didn't seem to be getting her anywhere. 263 00:14:54,224 --> 00:14:58,800 Which I'm going like, OK, when I had questionings about faith and 264 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,685 God and whatever, I wasn't thinking about how it wasn't 265 00:15:01,693 --> 00:15:04,041 getting me anywhere. I don't quite, I don't think I 266 00:15:04,049 --> 00:15:07,097 would say that it was more about the concept of like a made 267 00:15:07,105 --> 00:15:10,200 believe man in the sky and like people going and chanting 268 00:15:10,208 --> 00:15:12,620 mindlessly and not actually changing their own lives to 269 00:15:12,628 --> 00:15:15,734 align with what they say. I was questioning things like 270 00:15:15,742 --> 00:15:17,640 that. Not like it's not really getting 271 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,908 me anywhere. It's not getting me what I want 272 00:15:19,908 --> 00:15:23,026 out of life. So why am I doing this? 273 00:15:23,034 --> 00:15:27,029 That's a very self-centered way of looking at it as opposed to 274 00:15:27,037 --> 00:15:29,832 I'm questioning this because I'm curious about life. 275 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,264 It's a very me, me, me centered way of thinking about it like, 276 00:15:34,272 --> 00:15:38,520 well, God's not answering my prayers, so why do I pray to him 277 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,717 mommy like. Robyn coded for sure. 278 00:15:40,725 --> 00:15:45,883 And Robyn tells them each of you has a gift and it's your purity. 279 00:15:45,883 --> 00:15:48,880 It's a special gift to give your 280 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,680 husband or wife. And then she switches back into 281 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:57,440 the two girl story. One girl, there was a boy who 282 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,840 asked her for her purity, her purity. 283 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:07,960 He begged and begged for it and so she gave it away and then 284 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,000 this is where she throws the Locket onto the floor. 285 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,880 And it clatters to the carpet and. 286 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,000 It makes a clink noise and it must have been it hitting itself 287 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,880 because I was like, did it hit the coffee table? 288 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,480 It's like, no, it looks like it's just on the ground. 289 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,080 It's on carpet. On the carpet. 290 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,600 So why did it make a dinging noise? 291 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,680 It must have gone open, close, just like her legs when she lost 292 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,920 her purity. And they pan out, you know, to 293 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,720 show her doing this dramatic Locket throw. 294 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,600 And the kids are literally all sitting there with their arms 295 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:39,120 crossed looking down, not even watching her and you can tell 296 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,800 how awkward they feel and she's just putting on this one woman 297 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,240 show. It's so true. 298 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,680 So after she says she gave it away and she throws the Locket 299 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,400 onto the ground. Actually she just kind of like 300 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,120 dropped it. It sounded like a throw because 301 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:57,080 of the noise it made. And then she says she gave away 302 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,360 her purity. Like whole way to emphasize the 303 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,560 purity going away. He didn't respect it and he 304 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,520 threw it on the ground. He threw it on. 305 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,960 The and she says that like after she throws the Locket. 306 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,400 It's almost like a afterthought, like, oh shit, that's right. 307 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:14,560 He threw it on the ground, not me. 308 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,358 What am I doing? Oh, it's like she had a bit 309 00:17:17,358 --> 00:17:19,680 planned, like, oh, I'm going to throw the Locket on the ground 310 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,160 and be all dramatic. And then she threw it and 311 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,480 realized, oh shit, I was going to say he's the one that threw 312 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,560 it away like crap. She gives us a little insight 313 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:31,640 into her past on the couch. She says that she was 19 when 314 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,200 she was getting rebellious and she decided to move to Montana 315 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,840 and that at this time she was really questioning her beliefs. 316 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,920 She says that she lowered her standards at this time in her 317 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,640 life and she started dating this kid. 318 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,120 He was her first kiss and there was only one thing that he 319 00:17:52,120 --> 00:17:54,120 wanted. Dun Dun, Dun. 320 00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:01,320 And so I got pregnant, she says, as if all of a sudden we're a 321 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,400 hop, skipping and jumping 10 steps, and she doesn't finish 322 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,160 the story. And then I got pregnant. 323 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,628 Yes, there was only one thing he wanted. 10 second pause for 324 00:18:10,628 --> 00:18:15,420 her to look around and look up and make it seem like are the 325 00:18:15,420 --> 00:18:17,200 tears going to come? Are the tears going to come? 326 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,000 The tears ain't coming, the tears ain't coming. 327 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,200 And then she goes, so I got pregnant and it's like. 328 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,480 Just the weirdest, yeah. What is going on here? 329 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,800 And of course, these couch moments where Robyn's talking 330 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,720 about this, it's only her and Kody on the couch, and they're 331 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,440 very close. He's staring at her. 332 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,440 At other times, he's staring through her. 333 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,040 At other times he's got his arm around her. 334 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,560 It's very consoling and very like I'm here for you, Robyn. 335 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,240 Like I'm just here to support you through this story. 336 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:51,120 And we find out she got pregnant based on this kiss, this first 337 00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:53,920 kiss situation. The first kiss and then ma'am, 338 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,520 she's pregnant. So obviously we are talking here 339 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,800 about Dayton's father. I just have to say this poor guy 340 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,400 gets like his name drugged through the muds so many times. 341 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,840 And I just can't imagine talking about my child's father that 342 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,480 way. Because regardless of like, 343 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,320 let's say you get knocked up before you fall in love with 344 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,840 your partner, there's something that happens when you scramble 345 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,040 your DNA with somebody that you have to have some sort of 346 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:29,040 respect for them in some sort of way at some point. 347 00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:31,428 But what if you only kissed him once and then you were 348 00:19:31,428 --> 00:19:32,465 pregnant? I don't know. 349 00:19:32,473 --> 00:19:34,431 I mean, that's what we're finding out here. 350 00:19:34,439 --> 00:19:36,349 And so that's why my mind is so blown. 351 00:19:36,357 --> 00:19:38,780 You know, the Virgin Robyn over here. 352 00:19:38,788 --> 00:19:40,160 The Virgin Meri.

She can't. 355 00:19:45,986 --> 00:19:47,823 Say that she had sex with him. She's not. 356 00:19:47,831 --> 00:19:50,540 Give a 10 second pause and then she was pregnant. 357 00:19:50,548 --> 00:19:54,750 And this is my whole issue with when people say, oh, I gave my 358 00:19:54,758 --> 00:19:59,232 virginity away or I gave my purity away, like it's some sort 359 00:19:59,232 --> 00:20:03,460 of commodity or transactional thing happening and that you're 360 00:20:03,460 --> 00:20:08,180 less of a person afterwards because you gave them a piece of 361 00:20:08,180 --> 00:20:11,820 yourself like yourself worth is based on this one thing and 362 00:20:11,820 --> 00:20:17,012 it's implying a decrease in your value after the action. 363 00:20:17,020 --> 00:20:22,652 And I just. Cringe so hard when I hear her 364 00:20:22,660 --> 00:20:26,560 talk shit about her kids dad because it doesn't seem like 365 00:20:26,568 --> 00:20:28,852 there's any merit behind these claims. 366 00:20:28,860 --> 00:20:33,925 And here she is again dragging this guy telling this story 367 00:20:33,933 --> 00:20:38,120 about how oh poor woe is me. He begged and begged and begged 368 00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:43,242 me and so I gave my purity to him and now I'm this victim. 369 00:20:43,250 --> 00:20:47,864 It's like, Oh my gosh, she's trying to tell us during this 370 00:20:47,872 --> 00:20:50,894 story that she's taking ownership of, of the fact that 371 00:20:50,902 --> 00:20:53,240 she did this. And the whole reason she's 372 00:20:53,248 --> 00:20:56,798 sharing this story is because she told God that she felt that 373 00:20:56,798 --> 00:21:00,690 she needed to share this story if he would forgive her for 374 00:21:00,698 --> 00:21:04,388 having done this and getting pregnant out of wedlock. 375 00:21:04,396 --> 00:21:08,660 And it's just all so manipulative yet again because 376 00:21:08,668 --> 00:21:12,600 you're saying you're taking ownership yet you're blaming 377 00:21:12,608 --> 00:21:16,642 Dayton's dad, your ex-husband, saying he begged me he only 378 00:21:16,650 --> 00:21:19,790 wanted this one thing from me and this horrible shitty person 379 00:21:19,790 --> 00:21:21,955 and I lowered my standards for him. 380 00:21:21,963 --> 00:21:26,960 And even even here it's like you're trying to own up to 381 00:21:26,968 --> 00:21:30,682 something but you can't. So we cut back to her speaking 382 00:21:30,690 --> 00:21:34,870 to the kids again after we find out that she got pragante after 383 00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:38,869 a kiss. And she tells the kids that she 384 00:21:38,869 --> 00:21:43,168 has spent her whole life. Oh, this girl, this girl in this 385 00:21:43,168 --> 00:21:47,320 story has spent her whole life trying to get this back, trying 386 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,532 to get her purity back, and she couldn't. 387 00:21:50,540 --> 00:21:54,660 And she's still sad about it. And then they cut to a couch 388 00:21:54,668 --> 00:21:57,180 moment where we hear from Mckelty, and Mckelty says that 389 00:21:57,188 --> 00:22:01,707 the way that Robyn told this story of losing her purity was 390 00:22:01,715 --> 00:22:05,616 actually really pretty. I'm like, oh, not so sure. 391 00:22:05,624 --> 00:22:08,886 I'd call it pretty. All right. 392 00:22:08,894 --> 00:22:12,002 And I was distracted because Leon is on the couch with 393 00:22:12,010 --> 00:22:15,385 Mckelty and Leon is wearing a wife beater looking white tank 394 00:22:15,393 --> 00:22:19,661 top under a Jean vest and those arms are exposed. 395 00:22:19,669 --> 00:22:23,694 I saw shoulder. I saw arm flap. 396 00:22:23,702 --> 00:22:26,642 Farmer's tan. I saw farmer's tan, I saw 397 00:22:26,650 --> 00:22:31,216 teenage skin acne, and I'm like wow, Leon dressed like a sex 398 00:22:31,224 --> 00:22:34,200 addict during this episode. Interesting choice. 399 00:22:34,208 --> 00:22:36,915 Interesting choice. Interesting to say the least. 400 00:22:36,923 --> 00:22:40,330 I'm not so sure that that outfit meets Kody's purity 401 00:22:40,338 --> 00:22:43,714 requirements. It's an odd choice, Mckelty 402 00:22:43,722 --> 00:22:46,825 says. That this story really, really 403 00:22:46,833 --> 00:22:51,100 made me not want to do anything ever. 404 00:22:51,108 --> 00:22:54,056 Like they can't. They're just. 405 00:22:54,064 --> 00:22:57,855 It's also juvenile. Made me not want to do anything 406 00:22:57,855 --> 00:23:00,794 ever. So Robyn continues with her 407 00:23:00,802 --> 00:23:03,220 sermon. She says that when this girl, 408 00:23:03,228 --> 00:23:06,982 this made this not made-up girl, this very real girl, when she 409 00:23:06,990 --> 00:23:13,232 met the man that she loves, she had to say, this boy, he took my 410 00:23:13,232 --> 00:23:19,332 purity, he stole it and it was supposed to be yours and I gave 411 00:23:19,332 --> 00:23:23,470 it to someone else. I'm so sorry. 412 00:23:23,478 --> 00:23:28,085 So this theme of stealing something, taking something, 413 00:23:28,093 --> 00:23:32,120 it's something to give away. It's this commodity bit. 414 00:23:32,128 --> 00:23:36,000 It's like she'll never be. She's not a whole person now. 415 00:23:36,008 --> 00:23:39,280 And when you were talking about the underlying thing of this 416 00:23:39,288 --> 00:23:43,180 whole story, I was thinking about how she references Dayton 417 00:23:43,180 --> 00:23:47,820 in her couch moments, talking about the sermon and there's two 418 00:23:47,820 --> 00:23:50,455 other children she had with this man. 419 00:23:50,463 --> 00:23:53,619 She was with him for 9, married for 9 years, I believe when I 420 00:23:53,627 --> 00:23:56,562 did the math before they were together for 10 or 11 years. 421 00:23:56,570 --> 00:23:59,742 I mean, this isn't some multi month like, oh, we were together 422 00:23:59,742 --> 00:24:01,280 for four months and he ruined my life. 423 00:24:01,288 --> 00:24:03,296 And I've never been the same because I've just had to deal 424 00:24:03,304 --> 00:24:05,337 with all the consequences. It's like, you were with the man 425 00:24:05,337 --> 00:24:07,642 for a decade, Now people are with shitty people for a decade. 426 00:24:07,642 --> 00:24:08,800 I'm not saying that that doesn't 427 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,040 happen, but my God, I, I just, I don't even know. 428 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,120 Yeah, that's. The math is not mapping on. 429 00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:16,840 No, it's not. And that's why I go to the like, 430 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,960 OK, at some point you cared about this guy, why are you 431 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,880 doing this? I have exes that I can still 432 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,560 respect and I can look back at that point in my life and be 433 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,640 like that person served a purpose in my life at that time 434 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,040 and I can still respect that person even though we're not 435 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,800 together today. Like not every relationship that 436 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,160 doesn't work out is a failure. Like they all help you grow. 437 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,960 They help you become who you are today. 438 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,720 It doesn't have to be some big mistake in your life. 439 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,480 I hate when people look at a breakup or a divorce as a 440 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,280 mistake because it's part of your story. 441 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,640 It's you know who you are today and that person might be a 442 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,880 mistake in your eyes, but I think in the grand scheme of 443 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,640 things, most people, even if they regret decisions, realize 444 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,800 that it has made them who they are today. 445 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,520 And every single time that her relationship comes up and her 446 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,080 ex-husband, it's just like he just gets dragged and dragged 447 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,440 and dragged and it's just like she pretends she's taking 448 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,400 ownership but she's not. She's blaming him for 449 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,400 everything. She literally says here that she 450 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,040 had given her purity away to someone else who kind of stole 451 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:30,960 it from her. The word stole in this context 452 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:35,160 to me implies RAPE and I don't appreciate it. 453 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,240 Yeah. It is wildly inappropriate. 454 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,400 It is. She is basically implying to all 455 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:46,760 the children in their family, church home, church shindig 456 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:52,720 thing that they do that she was essayed by her ex-husband 457 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,480 because he talked her into giving this piece of herself 458 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,040 away. It's so messed up and it is just 459 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,440 going to create a complex for all of the children in that 460 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,240 room. Yeah. 461 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,600 Particularly your oldest, Dayton, who I mean all of your 462 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:13,520 children. But Dayton is a direct result of 463 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,640 your getting knocked up before you were married. 464 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,400 Yeah. To put these pieces together 465 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:23,046 that your father stole my purity and you are a result of that 466 00:26:23,046 --> 00:26:25,909 and I'm a victim and he is terrible. 467 00:26:25,917 --> 00:26:29,348 That fucks with someone's mind. Like that's not OK. 468 00:26:29,356 --> 00:26:33,310 Adam and Eve, she's comparing herself to like, oh, I was 469 00:26:33,318 --> 00:26:39,098 tempted by the snake and I just gave in because I had to type of 470 00:26:39,098 --> 00:26:44,422 thing and it's just too much. And I can't believe none of the 471 00:26:44,422 --> 00:26:48,120 other moms were like this is semi inappropriate. 472 00:26:48,128 --> 00:26:50,696 Like why are we doing this? I don't know. 473 00:26:50,704 --> 00:26:53,309 We find out that they all signed off on it, but whatever. 474 00:26:53,317 --> 00:26:56,426 Yeah, we don't get a lot of cutaways to the other wives, 475 00:26:56,434 --> 00:26:59,380 which I find to be interesting. There's, well, actually I saw 476 00:26:59,388 --> 00:27:02,542 both Christine and Meri in close-ups, but both of them, I 477 00:27:02,550 --> 00:27:06,388 felt like in the moment where they showed them, it wasn't even 478 00:27:06,388 --> 00:27:09,219 their actual reaction. It was almost like they just had 479 00:27:09,219 --> 00:27:12,126 footage and they used it and they weren't reacting in a 480 00:27:12,134 --> 00:27:14,380 dramatic way. But there's a moment where Robyn 481 00:27:14,380 --> 00:27:17,800 says something and they show Christine looking down as if, 482 00:27:17,808 --> 00:27:20,437 oh, I can't believe it. And I'm like, I don't even think 483 00:27:20,437 --> 00:27:21,305 that probably happened like that. 484 00:27:21,313 --> 00:27:23,955 I think you just had the footage and you put it that way because 485 00:27:23,955 --> 00:27:25,160 otherwise you would show us more. 486 00:27:25,168 --> 00:27:28,180 It's like Christine and Meri are there and they're listening, but 487 00:27:28,180 --> 00:27:30,732 we don't see their reactions, and I think there's a reason we 488 00:27:30,732 --> 00:27:32,735 don't see a lot of them. Because everyone's bored out of 489 00:27:32,735 --> 00:27:35,130 their fucking gourds. There's no reactions to be had 490 00:27:35,138 --> 00:27:36,872 the kids. As you said, they're looking 491 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,540 down, they're looking up, they're fiddling with their 492 00:27:39,548 --> 00:27:41,545 shoelaces like Leon is listening. 493 00:27:41,553 --> 00:27:44,380 Well, I'm sure some of the older kids are probably paying a 494 00:27:44,388 --> 00:27:46,708 little more attention, but some of them are not. 495 00:27:46,716 --> 00:27:49,608 And the particularly the young ones are just like. 496 00:27:49,616 --> 00:27:52,212 They don't even know what purity is. 497 00:27:52,220 --> 00:27:54,035 They don't even know what is being. 498 00:27:54,043 --> 00:27:57,796 It's all this coded language and so you can't even really put, I 499 00:27:57,796 --> 00:27:59,740 mean, it's all implied in coded language. 500 00:27:59,748 --> 00:28:02,828 You know, she never says anything about having sex. 501 00:28:02,836 --> 00:28:05,410 She never says anything about safe sex. 502 00:28:05,418 --> 00:28:07,660 If you're going to have sex, she there's never. 503 00:28:07,668 --> 00:28:10,460 There's not really a lesson to learn here other than you're not 504 00:28:10,460 --> 00:28:12,480 supposed to have sex until you're married. 505 00:28:12,488 --> 00:28:15,750 That you'll get pregnant and regret your life choices for 506 00:28:15,758 --> 00:28:18,834 nine years? Yeah, she she says in a Couch 507 00:28:18,842 --> 00:28:23,460 interview that being chased is a tenant of their faith, and not 508 00:28:23,468 --> 00:28:28,080 being chased LED her down nine years of hell. 509 00:28:28,088 --> 00:28:30,614 Hell. Don't, don't. 510 00:28:30,622 --> 00:28:34,930 And then she says when I found out I was pregnant I was so 511 00:28:34,938 --> 00:28:37,856 scared. She goes on to say that when he 512 00:28:37,856 --> 00:28:40,152 asked me to marry him, I said yes. 513 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:45,008 I was trying so hard to love my husband at that time. 514 00:28:45,016 --> 00:28:48,500 She was devastated by the news. Devastated. 515 00:28:48,508 --> 00:28:52,250 Yes. But Dayton was the best thing 516 00:28:52,258 --> 00:28:56,466 that ever happened to her. And they're showing pictures of 517 00:28:56,466 --> 00:28:59,428 Dayton as a baby across the screen at this time. 518 00:28:59,436 --> 00:29:03,470 And I harken back to how can you talk shit about your child's dad 519 00:29:03,470 --> 00:29:05,940 like this? How can you bring your child up 520 00:29:05,940 --> 00:29:08,680 into a situation like this? You're literally putting 521 00:29:08,688 --> 00:29:12,798 pictures of your mistake across the screen and like spelling it 522 00:29:12,798 --> 00:29:16,449 out for us that this was your biggest mistake of your life. 523 00:29:16,457 --> 00:29:19,394 But Oh well, it turned out OK because it was Dayton. 524 00:29:19,402 --> 00:29:23,058 But you still were part of the biggest mistake of my life. 525 00:29:23,066 --> 00:29:25,080 Yeah, yeah. It's so fucked up. 526 00:29:25,088 --> 00:29:28,440 Self esteem booster. But Robyn, you know what she 527 00:29:28,448 --> 00:29:31,320 did? She turned that around and she 528 00:29:31,328 --> 00:29:35,360 made a promise to God and she heard back from God. 529 00:29:35,368 --> 00:29:37,552 God told her. You know what, Robyn? 530 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,900 If you're willing to Share your story with others, with 531 00:29:40,908 --> 00:29:44,092 children, in particular those that we can have avoid making 532 00:29:44,100 --> 00:29:47,100 the biggest mistake of their life by giving away their 533 00:29:47,108 --> 00:29:50,426 purity, then you could help others and all could be forgiven 534 00:29:50,426 --> 00:29:52,320 and you'll be on a better path. 535 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,640 I have something to say here, Christopher. 536 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,520 I never told her to share her story. 537 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:05,640 In fact, I told her not to share her stupid goddamn story. 538 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,280 And that bitch just never listens to me. 539 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,000 She pretends she listens, but has she ever really listened? 540 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:19,840 I don't think so. Oh, thanks for visiting us, God. 541 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,520 Thank you. Thank you for that tidbit, holy 542 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,680 Moses.

You are in church right now and 544 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:32,280 that was the word according to God, Holy Moses. 545 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,240 Wow. We find out that she sat down 546 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,440 with the adults and told them all the story about having to 547 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:44,680 get married and her child that she almost had out of wedlock. 548 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,120 And they do show us some clips, you know, from the first season 549 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,720 where the family is getting together for the first time. 550 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,880 So we're finding out that basically back when they met, 551 00:30:56,200 --> 00:31:00,960 she confessed her sins to the other wives before being brought 552 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,720 in to the family. Something along the lines of 553 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,840 letting them know what they were getting themselves into. 554 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,680 Now when I hear getting yourself into, I think more about her 555 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,080 crazy, out of control debt that they're going to have to pay 556 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:14,800 off. I think about how they're going 557 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,920 to have to work to support her fucking lazy ass. 558 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,280 I don't think that getting themselves into was welcoming 3 559 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:22,920 wonderful children into their family. 560 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,000 It was taking care of this adult moron who is like, I gave away 561 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,280 my purity. My children are not mistakes. 562 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,080 It was just a big mistake. Like, Oh my God, woman. 563 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,600 It's she's always, there's always this positioning with her 564 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,080 where it's never what it really is. 565 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,040 It's never what it really is. And Kody buys it hook, line and 566 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,280 sinker. Well, it was all a setup, right? 567 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,680 It was all her setting up her side of the story from the get 568 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,200 go. Like the woe is me character, 569 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,840 the pick me girl. Like oh Oh yeah this is my sad 570 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,520 sob story. Like feel bad for me. 571 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,760 And now my favorite part of Robyn's purity sermon. 572 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,600 The story of the second girl. Ho ho ho. 573 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:08,200 The second girl saved her purity and was able to give it to the 574 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:13,080 man she loves. Pause turns to Kody. 575 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:19,960 This is yours. Literally hands the Locket to 576 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,640 Kody as if it is a precious Pearl, the biggest diamond in 577 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:24,960 the world. Well, it is her purity, worth 578 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,680 more than any jewel on the planet. 579 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:32,360 And she says, this is my gift to you, my purity. 580 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,280 The ultimate gift, and it's yours. 581 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:39,880 And it's yours and I'm going. So the second story is that 582 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:44,640 she's this girl who's real but made-up, gave her purity to her 583 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,680 husband. And that's the story. 584 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:52,758 And the way that she does it in front of the other wives is 585 00:32:52,758 --> 00:32:55,480 mind blowing to me. She is standing in this room in 586 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,971 front of this man's other wives, demonstrating how she wishes 587 00:32:58,971 --> 00:33:00,840 she could have given her purity to him. 588 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,920 And in a way, the way that it worked, it was very symbolic. 589 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,640 I think in her head and in his head, they were living a moment 590 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,160 of her being like in an alternate universe, actually, 591 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,680 after God, you know, reinstated my purity. 592 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,080 Now I'm giving it to you symbolically in front of all of 593 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,680 your children and your wives. It's gross. 594 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,360 It is so creepy. I wanted to vomit. 595 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,880 Yeah, it was disgusting. Well, they should have prefaced 596 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,480 this second part of the story with what Kody says next in his 597 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,160 interview because Kody says that he wanted her to share the 598 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,760 story. Because you can be atoned by God 599 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:43,600 and get your purity back. And he feels like Robyn has 600 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,744 atoned for this and had received her purity back and was 601 00:33:47,744 --> 00:33:52,710 actually able to give it to Kody. 602 00:33:52,718 --> 00:33:58,080 OK, you guys are nuts. Yeah, that would have made more 603 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,335 sense to put in before Robyn's second story of the true Lie 604 00:34:02,343 --> 00:34:05,592 Girl, because without it, even with it, it's disturbing. 605 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,227 But without it, it's even more disturbing. 606 00:34:07,235 --> 00:34:10,199 It's just like, are you reenacting you guys fucking for 607 00:34:10,199 --> 00:34:12,583 the first time but with God's permission? 608 00:34:12,592 --> 00:34:16,679 Like, it's just bizarre. They're pretending like, and 609 00:34:16,688 --> 00:34:20,117 this is just so grossing me but I'm so sorry, this is what I 610 00:34:20,125 --> 00:34:22,699 imagine in my mind. I imagine them together for 611 00:34:22,706 --> 00:34:27,348 their first time, kneeling on the ground and praying to God. 612 00:34:27,356 --> 00:34:30,628 Please reinstate Robyn's virginity for this holy 613 00:34:30,636 --> 00:34:34,040 matrimonial act that we are about to perform together. 614 00:34:34,047 --> 00:34:37,917 And like, I imagine them doing some weird sort of like thing 615 00:34:37,925 --> 00:34:41,759 like that to get her purity back so she can just give it to the 616 00:34:41,766 --> 00:34:45,339 one true love of her life that she was supposed to, to give it 617 00:34:45,339 --> 00:34:47,777 to Them's the vibes here. Part of that. 618 00:34:47,786 --> 00:34:50,739 I'm not liking it. Part of that prayer was God. 619 00:34:50,746 --> 00:34:54,335 I've got your tool here, and I'm ready to spread my seed. 620 00:34:54,342 --> 00:34:57,767 I mean your seed. But Robyn, you know, she's a 621 00:34:57,775 --> 00:35:00,840 dirty whore, so we need you to give her back her purity. 622 00:35:00,848 --> 00:35:02,020 And yeah. And then they did. 623 00:35:02,028 --> 00:35:03,732 Light as a feather, stiff as a board. 624 00:35:03,740 --> 00:35:07,216 And, you know, said hocus pocus, bibbity, bibbity boop. 625 00:35:07,224 --> 00:35:09,240 And all of a sudden she was pure again. 626 00:35:09,248 --> 00:35:14,400 And it was wonderful. So when we return back to Robyn 627 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:19,611 in front of the crooked mantle, she says all I ask of you is to 628 00:35:19,611 --> 00:35:23,786 protect your purity. Make a choice today Make the 629 00:35:23,794 --> 00:35:26,960 choice today to protect your purity. 630 00:35:26,968 --> 00:35:30,680 It's also manipulative, pushing children like. 631 00:35:30,688 --> 00:35:36,312 Make the promise today to stay chaste like it's, it's a 632 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,642 manipulation tactic in religions to put choices like this, like 633 00:35:40,650 --> 00:35:43,161 on children and say, oh, you make this choice. 634 00:35:43,169 --> 00:35:46,260 You make this promise to God today, not to break it. 635 00:35:46,268 --> 00:35:49,902 It is a manipulation tactic because then if the child goes 636 00:35:49,910 --> 00:35:53,727 and you know, does this thing, then they're going to feel 637 00:35:53,735 --> 00:35:55,739 guilty. Oh, remember that day that we 638 00:35:55,747 --> 00:35:59,880 sat in our family church and you made that promise to God that 639 00:35:59,888 --> 00:36:03,150 day and you broke it? Yeah, like, well, it's weird 640 00:36:03,158 --> 00:36:06,538 because there's the flip side of a coin here. 641 00:36:06,546 --> 00:36:10,744 People generally don't want their children that aren't 642 00:36:10,752 --> 00:36:14,999 adults having sex. So while I agree with you, it's 643 00:36:14,999 --> 00:36:18,666 a manipulation tactic, I also feel like most parents when they 644 00:36:18,666 --> 00:36:23,100 have particularly young teens or teenagers feel a bit helpless 645 00:36:23,100 --> 00:36:26,052 about preventing their children from having sex. 646 00:36:26,060 --> 00:36:29,554 And so it's like a tool in the tool belt or it's like a thing. 647 00:36:29,554 --> 00:36:30,440 And particularly if they're 648 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,760 brainwashed, if they're literally like, I'm delulu, I'm 649 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,240 crazy, then it's just more crazy to pass around. 650 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:39,920 But I feel bad for parents that are trying to hoping that their 651 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,720 kids abstain from sex. But there's only so much you can 652 00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:46,360 do about it. And it's such a tricky thing. 653 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,550 Like I, I don't have kids and I don't have daughters, 654 00:36:49,550 --> 00:36:51,586 especially because that purity is worth so much more than 655 00:36:51,586 --> 00:36:54,110 that tool of God. And so I don't know. 656 00:36:54,118 --> 00:36:56,602 But I imagine if I did have a daughter, I'd be like, I need 657 00:36:56,610 --> 00:36:58,786 you to at least wait till college because I can't think 658 00:36:58,794 --> 00:37:01,590 about you having sex when you're in like, I just, I want you to 659 00:37:01,598 --> 00:37:03,920 not be in my home. I want you to be a person out in 660 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,179 the world. But like, that's not real. 661 00:37:06,187 --> 00:37:10,860 Most people that I know had sex before they were out of their 662 00:37:10,868 --> 00:37:14,160 parents house and I don't know, it's just weird. 663 00:37:14,168 --> 00:37:14,952 I don't know. Sorry. 664 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,246 I'm going, I'm going. Totally detracting. 665 00:37:16,254 --> 00:37:18,389 Us Tell your kids not to do today. 666 00:37:18,397 --> 00:37:23,048 They will want to do tomorrow. The best that you can do is prep 667 00:37:23,048 --> 00:37:26,920 them for success. They're going to want to The 668 00:37:26,928 --> 00:37:30,560 hormones are a raging. The only thing you can do is 669 00:37:30,568 --> 00:37:34,120 prepare them for the safest possible options and hope that 670 00:37:34,128 --> 00:37:38,660 they make the right decisions based on what beliefs you have 671 00:37:38,668 --> 00:37:43,020 instilled in them and morals. And I think that going into 672 00:37:43,028 --> 00:37:46,482 parenthood with the mindset of I'm going to be able to control 673 00:37:46,482 --> 00:37:49,040 my child is just that's just not going to happen. 674 00:37:49,048 --> 00:37:50,578 That's just never going to happen. 675 00:37:50,586 --> 00:37:54,990 And if you really want little beings that you can control, 676 00:37:54,998 --> 00:37:57,840 like get a dog, get a cat. I don't know because. 677 00:37:57,848 --> 00:38:00,380 You're not another human. Yeah, you're supposed to be 678 00:38:00,388 --> 00:38:03,310 raising your children to be self-sufficient people that 679 00:38:03,318 --> 00:38:07,664 think for themselves and they're they're going to be horny like 680 00:38:07,672 --> 00:38:08,616 they're going to be. Fucking horny. 681 00:38:08,624 --> 00:38:11,542 And so you got to set them up for success and teach them the 682 00:38:11,550 --> 00:38:14,615 right way to take care of themselves and just hope that 683 00:38:14,623 --> 00:38:18,706 they make the best decisions for themselves and be there for them 684 00:38:18,706 --> 00:38:21,960 if and when they don't make the decision you hoped they 685 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:23,640 would have. Made which will happen? 686 00:38:23,648 --> 00:38:26,838 It will happen. And the more that you're not 687 00:38:26,846 --> 00:38:29,842 forthcoming and talk about this stuff with your kids, the more 688 00:38:29,850 --> 00:38:33,936 they're going to hide it from you and the more harm that can 689 00:38:33,944 --> 00:38:37,560 happen will happen. So just having that open 690 00:38:37,568 --> 00:38:40,854 communication about it is the only thing you can do to keep 691 00:38:40,862 --> 00:38:43,972 them safe. Any who going on a tangent about 692 00:38:43,972 --> 00:38:46,006 parenting and teaching about, well, listen. 693 00:38:46,014 --> 00:38:49,147 Robyn's sermon has touched us. We are literally touched by the 694 00:38:49,147 --> 00:38:51,120 word of Robyn. Yes, yes. 695 00:38:51,128 --> 00:38:56,219 Touched in our wet caramel, we get a couch moment with some of 696 00:38:56,219 --> 00:39:00,536 the teenagers and Hunter tells us that while he agrees with 697 00:39:00,544 --> 00:39:03,702 Robyn, theoretically, he feels it's most important to wait to 698 00:39:03,710 --> 00:39:06,980 have sex with someone who you actually love, and that waiting 699 00:39:06,980 --> 00:39:10,108 for marriage probably isn't the most important thing. 700 00:39:10,116 --> 00:39:13,000 And I like that perspective from a teenager. 701 00:39:13,008 --> 00:39:15,776 You know, it's not like he's disregarding the story and 702 00:39:15,784 --> 00:39:19,128 making it sound, I mean, which it is a ridiculous story and he 703 00:39:19,128 --> 00:39:22,221 should be disregarding it. But his take away is the even 704 00:39:22,229 --> 00:39:25,775 keeled take away of like I heard the gist of the story. 705 00:39:25,783 --> 00:39:28,660 I I agree that you probably just shouldn't be having sex with 706 00:39:28,668 --> 00:39:30,688 someone you don't care about when you're a teenager. 707 00:39:30,696 --> 00:39:34,467 So I thought that was a reasonable take away from that 708 00:39:34,475 --> 00:39:35,465 sermon. Definitely. 709 00:39:35,473 --> 00:39:40,922 We get a comment from Leon, of course, as we would, saying I 710 00:39:40,930 --> 00:39:45,658 think that sex is something that should be saved for marriage. 711 00:39:45,666 --> 00:39:48,155 That's it. Of course we already knew that, 712 00:39:48,155 --> 00:39:49,980 Leon. We knew you thought that way to 713 00:39:49,980 --> 00:39:52,921 let us know again. Leon's going to be a sister wife 714 00:39:52,921 --> 00:39:54,760 and Leon's going to be a doctor. 715 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:58,080 A doctor and a sister wife and I'm going to save might be 716 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,960 already for marriage. For my husband. 717 00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:06,960 All right, Leon. And now we cut to a potluck, 718 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:11,200 Honey, A potluck. Breakfast potluck after church. 719 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,160 That kind of activity where everyone gathers after the. 720 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,320 Sermon of the Lord. Sermon of the Lord The Lord 721 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,240 spoke through Robyn, and now we're going to eat through our 722 00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:24,880 mouth holes. The family prophet Kody Brown 723 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,600 hath a spoken. Now let's go and have a feast. 724 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,560 Yes. So they transitioned to 725 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,320 Christine's, which we aren't told, but then later I put the 726 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:34,400 pieces together. That's fine. 727 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,760 Remember they were giving us all those bottom thirds last few 728 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,600 episodes, knocking us over the head. 729 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,920 But now that we're at the Brown family cul-de-sac and we're all 730 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:45,240 settled after half a month maybe, which we figure out later 731 00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:48,280 potentially, now we just should know where we are. 732 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:49,800 So I thought we were still at Meri's. 733 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,397 Maybe we were, but I don't think so, unless this was actually 734 00:40:52,397 --> 00:40:55,040 two different days and they spliced it together, those 735 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,520 motherfuckers. But apparently we might be at 736 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,840 Christine's now, and there's a bunch of food set at the island 737 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:04,000 and everyone's gathering to get their potluck, which might be 738 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,342 another meal on a different day. 739 00:41:05,350 --> 00:41:09,650 I didn't really pay attention to their clothes, so I don't know. 740 00:41:09,650 --> 00:41:12,120 Leon announces very smugly that 741 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:16,360 they got a call from the senior advisor of admissions at 742 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,800 Westminster and they got accepted. 743 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:25,240 Woo. And they also got a $10,000 744 00:41:25,240 --> 00:41:28,720 scholarship, no? I'm just kidding. 745 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,120 Yeah. So that covers about 1/8 of the 746 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,880 annual cost of Westminster at that time. 747 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:39,800 You know, $10,000, nothing to sneeze at. 748 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,120 Also, you're not going to pay for your college on 10K. 749 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,080 So, you know, keep keep on trucking, Leon. 750 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,680 You're going to be a doctor. You got to keep working. 751 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,760 Now the kids are clapping and they're enthusiastic. 752 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,920 And it's funny, I like this moment because everyone in the 753 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,800 family is being supportive and encouraging because as time goes 754 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:01,080 on, the years and years, it seems like when the kids have 755 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:02,899 things happen, people care less. 756 00:42:02,907 --> 00:42:07,295 And this is, I don't know if it's a big family dynamic, it 757 00:42:07,303 --> 00:42:09,848 might be every family dynamic because I'm the oldest. 758 00:42:09,856 --> 00:42:12,080 So everyone cared about what I did, of course, and praised me 759 00:42:12,088 --> 00:42:15,680 and loved me and I could do no well, I did plenty wrong. 760 00:42:15,688 --> 00:42:18,228 But there's this enthusiasm, blah, blah, blah. 761 00:42:18,236 --> 00:42:20,972 By the time Gabe goes to college, you think anybody gave 762 00:42:20,972 --> 00:42:23,036 a fuck? You think anybody gave him a 763 00:42:23,044 --> 00:42:25,654 clap or a Hoo ha or a excitement for you? 764 00:42:25,662 --> 00:42:27,312 I don't think so. I don't think anybody. 765 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:28,944 I don't think we're I don't think we're filming it. 766 00:42:28,952 --> 00:42:30,300 I don't think we're talking about it. 767 00:42:30,308 --> 00:42:32,189 There's nothing. So these older kids and I don't 768 00:42:32,189 --> 00:42:34,212 know if it's just the positioning of the show, you 769 00:42:34,220 --> 00:42:36,384 know that it's a storyline that something's happening, we're 770 00:42:36,392 --> 00:42:39,660 going to cover it or if it's just the way families progress. 771 00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:41,840 But these older kids like Logan 772 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,880 going to school, there was multiple episodes, there was 773 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,640 parties trying to convince him to stay. 774 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,480 And here's Leon making an announcement and everyone's 775 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,320 celebrating or whatever. When Isabel went to college, I 776 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:55,400 think they had like a waving from the driveway moment or 777 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:56,720 something, You know, I mean, like, no one. 778 00:42:57,240 --> 00:42:58,960 It's just weird. It just stood out to me as 779 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,160 someone who's watched the show before. 780 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,023 That's why we get into the talks about like how selfish it is 781 00:43:04,023 --> 00:43:07,054 to have this many children because you can give less and 782 00:43:07,054 --> 00:43:10,400 less of yourself to each child as you go through life. 783 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,040 Like you're spreading yourself too thin. 784 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:17,012 Like every child should get pat on the back and a big going 785 00:43:17,012 --> 00:43:20,560 away for going to college. It shouldn't get less and less. 786 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,320 That to me is sad. Like that is really sad. 787 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,560 I know it just it's not addressed in this episode. 788 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,640 It just stood out to me as something where I'm like, yeah, 789 00:43:27,720 --> 00:43:32,120 I noticed that weaning, weaning, weaning as years go, waning, 790 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:37,720 waning, waning as years go on. Yeah, Kody has to give us his 791 00:43:37,720 --> 00:43:42,120 comment about the $10,000 and how $10,000 towards tuition is a 792 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,040 big deal. I'm glad they got the 793 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,840 scholarship. OK, that wasn't Kody's. 794 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,200 They paid for like half of 1 semester for their freshman 795 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,680 year. Not even half, definitely a 796 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:59,040 fraction, but it's a. We are reminded that they are 797 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,360 about to have five kids in college at once. 798 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,360 Yes, in a couple years, 'cause they're obviously we have Logan 799 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,320 in school, Leon and Aspen will be going, and then we've got two 800 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,800 more, Mckelty and Hunter probably. 801 00:44:12,240 --> 00:44:14,400 So these kids are in a couple years, they're going to have 802 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,000 five of their kids in college. And Christine made an 803 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,480 interesting retort to this point. 804 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,560 Well, because Kody kind of is like Pooh poohing this and like 805 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,600 how difficult it's going to be and how he's already told Leon 806 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,240 that they're going to need more money if they're going to go 807 00:44:31,240 --> 00:44:33,520 there. And he's kind of being a Debbie 808 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,440 Downer about the money situation. 809 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:41,480 And Christine kind of says, hey, hey, we used to have five kids 810 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,960 in diapers. We didn't think we'd get past 811 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,080 the diaper phase. We'll get past the college phase 812 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,920 two. And she kind of does this like 813 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,120 tongue click thing like. It was an interesting point. 814 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,000 I think I air on the side of Christine in a bit. 815 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,040 I think that life's challenges present themselves. 816 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,080 Sometimes you feel like you're never going to get through or 817 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,480 you don't know how you're going to get through them. 818 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,160 And then when you look back on it, it's like, OK, well then I 819 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,680 did this and I did this, or this happened. 820 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,160 This person helped me. Different things happen where 821 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,600 you get through things and you know, it's kind of a big one 822 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,280 having talking about 5 kids in college. 823 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,080 This is where I think she might be a little delulu because it's 824 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,920 like 5 kids in college is a huge financial obligation. 825 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,680 It's not necessarily buying diapers, but a young family 826 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,000 buying diapers for five kids. That must have seemed in 827 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,280 insurmountable or like we're never going to be able to get 828 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,600 through this, you know? I get a little confused by their 829 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,800 conversations about a college and the funding college, because 830 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,720 obviously they're not going to be able to even pay 5 grand 831 00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:43,200 towards all of these kids as college tuitions. 832 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,440 It doesn't seem like, because that's a lot of kids. 833 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,360 And I don't know, even if you could give your kid 10 grand 834 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,000 towards school, that is a big deal. 835 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:53,560 Yeah. And when you have this many 836 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,200 kids, that happening is like slim to none. 837 00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,800 But you guys technically aren't all married, so the chances of 838 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,440 your child getting some sort of financial aid are very high. 839 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,200 And your kids probably going to have to take out student loans. 840 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,040 But it's not like your kid is going to not be able to go to 841 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,120 college. Their conversation they have 842 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:17,120 around college each time is just kind of bizarre to me because 843 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,880 the average person does have to take out student loans. 844 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,440 And that's even for a family of like one or two kids, right? 845 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,800 So a family this large, you're an idiot to think you're not 846 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,960 going to have to take out student loans for your child. 847 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:30,640 You said it. Yeah. 848 00:46:30,720 --> 00:46:32,080 Kody is an idiot. Yeah. 849 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,200 This is what unfolds through the show is. 850 00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:38,240 It's probably coming up pretty soon because Leon's going to 851 00:46:38,240 --> 00:46:39,360 start going to. Yeah. 852 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:44,920 So discussions about not Co signing for student loans and 853 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,840 being very opposed to this. This is what Kody says while the 854 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,040 wives are trying to talk sense into Kody and it it makes sense. 855 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,360 I mean, most people have student loans because their parents 856 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:55,720 can't pay for it and they can't pay for it. 857 00:46:55,720 --> 00:46:59,080 It's very basic. Kody's Oh, you can't start life 858 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:00,520 out with debt. And it's like, well, isn't that 859 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,360 ideal? Wouldn't that be lovely if every 860 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,400 person could just start their adult life out without debt? 861 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,640 You had you have 20 fucking children. 862 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,840 What are you talking about? What were you thinking? 863 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,760 He's such an idiot. How do you think that's not 864 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:12,000 going to happen? And look at where the fuck you 865 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,680 are are now. But also you married a woman 866 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,640 with a shit ton of debt. I would be more willing to get 867 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,600 in debt over my child's education than buying porcelain 868 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:22,880 dolls. But that's just me. 869 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,520 I don't know these guys. Well, that's why your doll 870 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,520 collection is so skimpy and cheap, honey. 871 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,400 That's why they all have little cracks in their faces. 872 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,480 That's why I'm always making fun of you for your cheap dolls. 873 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:39,840 They're not porcelain, they're made out of. 874 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,160 Those plastic and rubber dolls, they're just crap. 875 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,974 Paper mache so made them myself. 876 00:47:45,982 --> 00:47:47,984 This is it. Why aren't you in more debt 877 00:47:47,992 --> 00:47:51,184 Because of your dolls? I mean, Oh my. 878 00:47:51,192 --> 00:47:53,072 God. Well, after this potluck, 879 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,050 they're going to bury a time capsule. 880 00:47:55,058 --> 00:47:57,427 So now we're getting to the time capsule. 881 00:47:57,435 --> 00:47:59,888 Woo Hoo. And Kody tells everyone. 882 00:47:59,896 --> 00:48:03,332 I'd like you to all get something you'd like to see in 883 00:48:03,340 --> 00:48:05,936 five years, and I'm going. So he's making this 884 00:48:05,944 --> 00:48:07,300 announcement. And it almost seems like other 885 00:48:07,308 --> 00:48:09,772 than maybe the adults, and I don't even know if all the 886 00:48:09,780 --> 00:48:11,340 adults knew, nobody knows this is happening. 887 00:48:11,348 --> 00:48:13,387 OK, so we're doing a time capsule. 888 00:48:13,395 --> 00:48:16,355 So cool. All the kids are going to scurry 889 00:48:16,355 --> 00:48:19,170 through their homes and find things they want to put in this 890 00:48:19,170 --> 00:48:21,535 time capsule. But before we even get to the 891 00:48:21,543 --> 00:48:24,562 lovely things that the children and parents picked to put in 892 00:48:24,570 --> 00:48:28,066 said time capsule, we hear a little bit from Robyn again 893 00:48:28,074 --> 00:48:31,642 about how she's so happy that she'll be able to put something 894 00:48:31,642 --> 00:48:34,950 into the ground that will be there in five years and they 895 00:48:34,958 --> 00:48:39,290 will be there in five years, and she'll be in the same home in 896 00:48:39,298 --> 00:48:41,522 five years. For the first time ever, she's 897 00:48:41,530 --> 00:48:45,320 going to be in a home. We have to get that little 898 00:48:45,328 --> 00:48:47,488 tidbit in. Well, of course, I mean, Robyn's 899 00:48:47,488 --> 00:48:50,552 ever more the victim and now she might have overcome her 900 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:54,040 victimhood and now she's going to be in a home for five years. 901 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,040 Cut to when we hear the date I'm 902 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,480 going. We should actually look up and 903 00:48:58,480 --> 00:48:59,977 see when they leave these homes. 904 00:48:59,985 --> 00:49:03,030 Not to give too much away to people, our listeners at home 905 00:49:03,038 --> 00:49:06,263 who haven't seen the show, but but are they there in five 906 00:49:06,271 --> 00:49:07,788 years? I don't know. 907 00:49:07,796 --> 00:49:11,200 Is that red cooler of a time capsule still buried? 908 00:49:11,208 --> 00:49:14,790 There, that red cooler, I was going to say it was Igloo, but 909 00:49:14,798 --> 00:49:16,098 then I thought, no, it's probably not. 910 00:49:16,106 --> 00:49:19,303 It's probably some knock off. But, you know, we do get to the 911 00:49:19,303 --> 00:49:21,272 cooler. We do get there. 912 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,760 Christine does tell us that she wishes they would have had their 913 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:29,459 family mission statement ready to go into the time capsule. 914 00:49:29,467 --> 00:49:33,644 And I was L0L 0L0 L ING. I thought, oh, my God, I hope 915 00:49:33,652 --> 00:49:35,842 I'm not annoying. I hope I'm not annoying, Kimber, 916 00:49:35,842 --> 00:49:38,500 because I'm sitting next to you chuckling for 30 seconds. 917 00:49:38,508 --> 00:49:41,927 I was like, what on God's green earth are you talking about? 918 00:49:41,935 --> 00:49:43,970 Yeah. Why are you doing a time capsule 919 00:49:43,970 --> 00:49:46,526 before your mission statement is able to even go in it? 920 00:49:46,534 --> 00:49:48,840 Why? Like you're being forced to do 921 00:49:48,848 --> 00:49:50,840 this now, this day, at this time. 922 00:49:50,848 --> 00:49:53,990 Like it couldn't wait a month until you have your family 923 00:49:53,998 --> 00:49:56,120 mission statement. These guys and they're weird 924 00:49:56,128 --> 00:49:59,560 timelines that they put on themselves where they need to do 925 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,744 stupid shit like a time capsule, but they don't need to 926 00:50:02,744 --> 00:50:05,098 finish stupid shit like their family mission statement. 927 00:50:05,106 --> 00:50:08,472 It's like, what are these timelines you give yourselves? 928 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,760 Just like driving to Nauvoo over how many freaking. 929 00:50:11,768 --> 00:50:13,416 Days. Are you idiot? 930 00:50:13,424 --> 00:50:15,060 Yes, absolutely. Oh my. 931 00:50:15,068 --> 00:50:16,500 God, absurd. No planning. 932 00:50:16,508 --> 00:50:18,917 And I'm imagining when you were saying that I was, I had a 933 00:50:18,925 --> 00:50:21,328 visual in my head of one of the producers coming with a gun and 934 00:50:21,328 --> 00:50:24,120 being like you were doing a time capsule and you're doing it 935 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:25,092 this week. Like what? 936 00:50:25,100 --> 00:50:27,870 On Gun Screen Earth, you've already talked about the mission 937 00:50:27,870 --> 00:50:29,155 statement from multiple episodes. 938 00:50:29,163 --> 00:50:33,140 You've had at least two meetings at this point to craft it and 939 00:50:33,148 --> 00:50:35,880 you haven't done that. But let's make sure we get our 940 00:50:35,888 --> 00:50:38,240 time capsule into a cooler and buried in the backyard. 941 00:50:38,248 --> 00:50:42,084 Like what the fuck? In like the middle of January or 942 00:50:42,084 --> 00:50:44,562 February, mind you, because they've been in the homes for 943 00:50:44,570 --> 00:50:46,316 like roughly a month at this point, right? 944 00:50:46,324 --> 00:50:48,880 So why are you doing it right now anyway? 945 00:50:48,888 --> 00:50:50,940 Yeah, it's very important. It's very important. 946 00:50:50,948 --> 00:50:54,460 It gets in the ground. Well, hot off of Christine's 947 00:50:54,468 --> 00:50:57,336 comment about the time capsule and their missing mission 948 00:50:57,344 --> 00:51:00,939 statement, they cut to the couch for a fab To Be Less Precious 949 00:51:00,947 --> 00:51:03,836 Pearl, where Leon says that a family mission statement is 950 00:51:03,844 --> 00:51:07,488 stupid because they're not a business, they're a family. 951 00:51:07,496 --> 00:51:11,700 Which I love because it's just more Debbie Downer vibes from 952 00:51:11,708 --> 00:51:13,150 Leon. We get plenty of that. 953 00:51:13,158 --> 00:51:15,400 Thank you, Leon. Kind of chiding Leon like, why 954 00:51:15,408 --> 00:51:19,630 do you think this is so stupid? And then Leon has to say, well, 955 00:51:19,630 --> 00:51:21,630 because we're a family, not a business. 956 00:51:21,638 --> 00:51:25,880 Like Oh my God, get off your fucking high horse. 957 00:51:25,888 --> 00:51:29,388 Yet again Leon trying to seem like the smartest one in the God 958 00:51:29,388 --> 00:51:30,647 damn room. OK. 959 00:51:30,655 --> 00:51:34,680 Leon Buzzkill Brown hit us. Leon the Buzzkill. 960 00:51:34,688 --> 00:51:37,082 Wisdom. Leon's going to be a doctor. 961 00:51:37,090 --> 00:51:40,780 So then we cut to everyone following Kody carrying his red 962 00:51:40,780 --> 00:51:44,052 plastic cooler to the backyard. And it's one of those red 963 00:51:44,060 --> 00:51:46,340 coolers that has a white top and the white handle, and it looks 964 00:51:46,348 --> 00:51:49,150 like you're bringing it to the beach or the boat or wherever 965 00:51:49,158 --> 00:51:51,748 you bring a cooler camping, blah, blah, blah. 966 00:51:51,756 --> 00:51:55,540 I have to mention that Hunter decides to put a wrestling one 967 00:51:55,548 --> 00:51:58,680 of his wrestling metals in the time capsule, which I thought 968 00:51:58,688 --> 00:52:00,455 was cute. That is cute. 969 00:52:00,463 --> 00:52:04,636 And something that's not so cute, Meri puts in a My sister 970 00:52:04,644 --> 00:52:07,660 wife's closet necklace. Yes, and I didn't catch the 971 00:52:07,668 --> 00:52:11,200 other things, but those were the two that drew my attention. 972 00:52:11,208 --> 00:52:14,255 That's funny, if the wrestling metal was made out of plastic, 973 00:52:14,263 --> 00:52:17,230 it was probably still more valuable than my sister wife's 974 00:52:17,238 --> 00:52:19,200 closet jewelry. Not today, though, because I'd 975 00:52:19,208 --> 00:52:21,388 pay money for that jewelry. I know, right? 976 00:52:21,396 --> 00:52:25,780 So the family has followed Kody to the backyard, and he starts 977 00:52:25,788 --> 00:52:30,810 digging a hole with a pickaxe like he's burying one of their 978 00:52:30,818 --> 00:52:32,160 dead animals. Drake. 979 00:52:32,168 --> 00:52:34,672 Poor Drake. That was the name of the dog we 980 00:52:34,672 --> 00:52:35,640 couldn't remember the other day. 981 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,960 And so Kody's back there digging with a pickaxe. 982 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:43,120 But during this time, oh, some of the kids have left because 983 00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,280 turns out they didn't want to stand around and watch their dad 984 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:48,360 digging a hole. And he points out, oh, well, my 985 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,280 boys aren't here to help me dig this hole. 986 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,840 Hole. No one wants to help with this. 987 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,040 It's like, yeah, nobody cares. And then they show Hunter and 988 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,920 Peyton, I think both on their phones, laying on couches, 989 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,720 Literally, the kids are disseminated. 990 00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,400 They don't give a fuck. It's weird because before they 991 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,760 even show them digging the hole, they show all of the family 992 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:13,840 together, like with these plastic cups of juice and they 993 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,160 they go hip hip. Hooray. 994 00:53:17,720 --> 00:53:22,640 Like cheers, their juice cups. And then we get Kody digging 995 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,520 this hole alone. It's like, what were you guys 996 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,520 just hip, hip hurraying about? Go dig the fucking hole. 997 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,040 Right, they hip, hip, hurray. And then he's alone in the 998 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:35,000 backyard, but not unsupervised because standing next to him is 999 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,000 the leader of the pack, Meri Brown. 1000 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:40,400 If you want something done right, have Meri Brown watch you 1001 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,160 do it. That's what I always say. 1002 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,120 Oh, God. So Meri and Kody are there 1003 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:49,760 together alone and he's pickaxing into the ground and 1004 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:53,360 she's just standing there looking beautiful. 1005 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:58,400 And Kody takes a break and says we need to talk about the baby 1006 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,440 decision. Yep, of course he needs an 1007 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,840 answer on that baby stuff. The baby business. 1008 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:07,080 Yeah, the baby stuff, he literally says the word stuff 1009 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,440 and it's so great because he goes back to digging. 1010 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,680 And Meri, oh, bless her heart. I love Meri. 1011 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,680 Sometimes I just love her, she says. 1012 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,600 When we talk about this, I need you to be involved in the 1013 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:23,160 conversation. He flips his head up and looks 1014 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:26,560 at her like Shaggy from scooby-doo. 1015 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,520 Like nothing behind the eyes except for like. 1016 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:37,160 Vacant, vacant look dumb as shit standing there like he was 1017 00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:42,400 picking, shoveling whoops his head up stops and there's 1018 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:44,840 literally a Dun Dun from the music. 1019 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:49,160 Like, are you fucking kidding? Me, I just imagined Shaggy from 1020 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:53,480 Scooby-doo going. Yeah, Scooby, what are we? 1021 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:55,920 Doing. I feel like Scooby's the one 1022 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,200 that makes the noise. Yeah, there is. 1023 00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,000 I don't. I don't. 1024 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,760 Know true? One of them does, and he's one 1025 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,680 of the two. He's the one of the two. 1026 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,600 Kody's either the dog or the dumb guy that had the dog, and 1027 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,080 it's true it it literally looked like a cartoon. 1028 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:11,558 He was wearing his guest shirt. 1029 00:55:11,566 --> 00:55:15,380 Dig in that hole and Meri was wearing a yellow blouse with all 1030 00:55:15,380 --> 00:55:19,414 of these not ruffles, but like little flowers that look like 1031 00:55:19,422 --> 00:55:21,675 ruffles. Yeah, little circles of like 1032 00:55:21,683 --> 00:55:25,655 some other type of material that like fluttered in the wind. 1033 00:55:25,663 --> 00:55:29,115 Cascaded down her shirt. It was very interesting they got 1034 00:55:29,115 --> 00:55:31,596 they were looking pretty good for digging a hole. 1035 00:55:31,604 --> 00:55:33,910 Except for Kody. Never looks good but you know he 1036 00:55:33,910 --> 00:55:35,160 was wearing another guest shirt. 1037 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,960 Shout out to our listener who pointed out the guest at the 1038 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,320 very beginning when we thought it might have been Prada. 1039 00:55:40,720 --> 00:55:43,120 Yeah, and this one is a blatant guest shirt. 1040 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:46,160 They actually show the logo, which I'm surprised by. 1041 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,000 Yeah, they make their choices about whether to blur that out 1042 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:49,920 or not. Yeah. 1043 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,650 It's a little odd and it's kind of like this weird purpley 1044 00:55:54,650 --> 00:55:57,840 color as. Well, black lettering, yeah, it 1045 00:55:57,840 --> 00:55:59,680 was not attractive, but whatever. 1046 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:02,680 It's an odd choice. And then of course Meri has to 1047 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:04,760 rehash all the crap we've already lived through. 1048 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,880 Watching them hem and Haw about this baby decision. 1049 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,560 It's like, God, I don't want to hear about this anymore. 1050 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,880 I'm so over. It Oh yeah, she has to let us 1051 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:16,800 know how emotional it's been trying to decide if they want to 1052 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:20,720 go through with all of the medical stuff to have a baby. 1053 00:56:20,720 --> 00:56:22,120 Yawn. Who cares? 1054 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:23,400 Yeah. And then all of a sudden, 1055 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,240 everybody is surrounding Meri and Kody again, back at the big 1056 00:56:26,240 --> 00:56:30,280 hole he's dug for their time capsule. 1057 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,320 Oh. And what day are we going to 1058 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:37,400 open this time capsule on? No sooner than Civil Rights Day 1059 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:44,560 2018, which Meri is reading from a piece of paper taped to the 1060 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,240 outside of the cooler. And I thought, you know, a 1061 00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:49,160 family. What is this called? 1062 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:50,520 A time capsule? Yeah. 1063 00:56:50,720 --> 00:56:53,480 I probably would have selected something other than a plastic 1064 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:54,360 cooler. I don't know. 1065 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,320 You know, it works. Maybe. 1066 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,080 Maybe it works. I don't think we'll ever know. 1067 00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,720 Think it fully seals. I feel like you're going to open 1068 00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:04,280 that up in five years and there's going to be bugs and 1069 00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:07,280 weird shit in there with it. Who knows? 1070 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,000 But the IT just, it's one of those things where if I, well, 1071 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,452 if I was going to be doing this, which I probably never would, 1072 00:57:12,452 --> 00:57:15,600 I would find something cute and Saran wrap or like, you know, 1073 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,560 you have to make it OK to go in the ground. 1074 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,600 Maybe even an urn for God's sake. 1075 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,720 Like anything would have been better than this. 1076 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:25,280 I don't think this seals like a Tupperware would have been 1077 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,000 better than this probably. Yeah, and it's got a piece of 1078 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:31,280 paper taped to it, which they probably taped the whole outside 1079 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,000 of the paper, but let's be real, it's a piece. 1080 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:35,100 It's like written with Sharpie. 1081 00:57:35,108 --> 00:57:37,024 Like you couldn't even put something nice on it. 1082 00:57:37,032 --> 00:57:39,898 There is a bunch of sharpie written all over the cooler as 1083 00:57:39,906 --> 00:57:41,948 well. Yeah, it's just trashy. 1084 00:57:41,956 --> 00:57:46,606 It's terrible. Now I'm going to look up Civil 1085 00:57:46,614 --> 00:57:50,005 Rights Day. I'm wondering if the Civil 1086 00:57:50,013 --> 00:57:52,742 rights Day is to align with their whole, like we're going to 1087 00:57:52,742 --> 00:57:55,714 be going against the state of Utah for violating our civil 1088 00:57:55,722 --> 00:57:57,660 rights. Like I think they're kind of 1089 00:57:57,668 --> 00:58:00,400 incorporating that. Why don't they ever make 1090 00:58:00,408 --> 00:58:02,863 connections like fully for the viewer? 1091 00:58:02,871 --> 00:58:04,966 Like they just can't do that. You're just. 1092 00:58:04,974 --> 00:58:06,410 Supposed to summarize it I guess. 1093 00:58:06,418 --> 00:58:10,800 Like, what a dumb day to pick. It's not even Joseph Smith's 1094 00:58:10,808 --> 00:58:12,875 birthday. Come on. 1095 00:58:12,883 --> 00:58:16,550 Well, Civil Rights Day is traditionally commemorated on 1096 00:58:16,558 --> 00:58:20,188 January 15th to honor Martin Luther King. 1097 00:58:20,196 --> 00:58:25,209 So obviously a tie in to civil rights with Martin Luther King. 1098 00:58:25,209 --> 00:58:27,400 But I think their tie in is 1099 00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:30,200 really that they are suing the state of Utah for violating 1100 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:31,840 their civil rights as polygamists. 1101 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:34,800 Watching another day of rights for their needs. 1102 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,760 Well, Robyn had a dream, you know, and this was this was her 1103 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:38,720 dream. She did. 1104 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,262 It's all coming full circle to. 1105 00:58:41,270 --> 00:58:45,188 Bury a cooler in the backyard. Oh lordy. 1106 00:58:45,196 --> 00:58:50,620 Oh Lord my God. Now let's see when the Browns 1107 00:58:50,628 --> 00:58:56,154 move out of these houses, OK? So January 15th of 2018 is when 1108 00:58:56,154 --> 00:58:58,886 this was supposed to be open. Yes. 1109 00:58:58,894 --> 00:59:02,960 So they've been in the homes about half a month, yeah. 1110 00:59:02,968 --> 00:59:07,060 So when I looked up when the Browns leave their homes on the 1111 00:59:07,060 --> 00:59:09,730 cul-de-sac, it is roughly summer of 2018. 1112 00:59:09,738 --> 00:59:13,485 So it would be after this they're supposed a date where 1113 00:59:13,493 --> 00:59:16,960 they're going to take up the what is this thing called Time 1114 00:59:16,968 --> 00:59:17,440 capsule? Time capsule? 1115 00:59:17,448 --> 00:59:18,856 I don't know why I can't remember that term. 1116 00:59:18,864 --> 00:59:22,615 Oh, I wonder if we're going to get a digging up of the time 1117 00:59:22,623 --> 00:59:23,868 capsule. This is it. 1118 00:59:23,876 --> 00:59:26,063 I don't recall from my watching before. 1119 00:59:26,071 --> 00:59:29,740 I don't remember it, so I assumed that they didn't, which 1120 00:59:29,740 --> 00:59:32,428 is why maybe the. Shit's just ruined so they can't 1121 00:59:32,428 --> 00:59:34,762 use the footage. This is like full of maggots. 1122 00:59:34,770 --> 00:59:38,332 Like, oh, our lives are rotting away like our time capsule. 1123 00:59:38,340 --> 00:59:42,227 I hope Hunter's medal is OK. Oh, that's all I hope. 1124 00:59:42,235 --> 00:59:42,974 Probably. Rusted. 1125 00:59:42,982 --> 00:59:47,520 Oh God. So to wrap up the episode, Kody 1126 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:51,352 brings us back to Meri's baby decision and shares some 1127 00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:56,250 touching thoughts and some deep, deep, deep feelings here. 1128 00:59:56,258 --> 01:00:00,983 More like a cryptic message. What does Kody tell us, darling 1129 01:00:00,983 --> 01:00:04,217 Kody? Says it's about halfway into the 1130 01:00:04,217 --> 01:00:09,512 month and it's just sort of time to make that decision. 1131 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:14,120 I don't know which way she's leaning, but there's a lot of 1132 01:00:14,128 --> 01:00:18,280 thoughts in my head that have been adjusting, so we'll see 1133 01:00:18,288 --> 01:00:26,855 what we come up with. Next week on Sister Wives, like 1134 01:00:26,855 --> 01:00:30,184 that was the end of the episode and that was that. 1135 01:00:30,192 --> 01:00:33,050 There are quotes sometimes, and I shit you not, we're writing 1136 01:00:33,058 --> 01:00:35,070 them down word for word. Sometimes. 1137 01:00:35,078 --> 01:00:42,640 Are just so prick and weird and nonsensical and my guess is that 1138 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:47,610 he's talking about how they said when they moved into the 1139 01:00:47,610 --> 01:00:50,560 homes that this was when the decision is going to be made and 1140 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,486 he's been so dead set on having a deadline. 1141 01:00:52,494 --> 01:00:54,654 OK well it's halfway into the month. 1142 01:00:54,662 --> 01:00:57,028 We've been into the homes looking at my watch here halfway 1143 01:00:57,028 --> 01:01:00,245 through the month. Hello hello Meri need my 1144 01:01:00,253 --> 01:01:05,272 decision and my thoughts in my head have been adjusting. 1145 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:08,270 Right. So you've changed your mind 1146 01:01:08,278 --> 01:01:13,338 about wanting a baby with Meri, is my reading between the lines 1147 01:01:13,338 --> 01:01:16,654 there. How do you not know which way 1148 01:01:16,662 --> 01:01:19,120 she's leaning? Because they don't see each 1149 01:01:19,128 --> 01:01:22,262 other and they don't talk. How does a husband not know 1150 01:01:22,270 --> 01:01:26,840 which way their wife is leaning about having a baby after all 1151 01:01:26,848 --> 01:01:30,260 this fucking time? All this hashing it out, I don't 1152 01:01:30,260 --> 01:01:34,100 know what way she's leaning. It's like they're picking out a 1153 01:01:34,100 --> 01:01:35,802 paint color. I don't know if she's leaning 1154 01:01:35,810 --> 01:01:37,212 more towards the blue or the purple. 1155 01:01:37,220 --> 01:01:40,808 But we've been talking about it for five years, beating you over 1156 01:01:40,808 --> 01:01:43,400 the head with it. So unfortunately, we're going to 1157 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,248 hear more about Meri's baby decision coming up. 1158 01:01:46,256 --> 01:01:49,260 I just. I hope it's the end. 1159 01:01:49,268 --> 01:01:50,928 I'm so over it. I'm so over. 1160 01:01:50,936 --> 01:01:55,179 It I hope that next episode we get this big old baby decision 1161 01:01:55,187 --> 01:01:58,660 and we can just put this bitch to rest. 1162 01:01:58,668 --> 01:02:03,055 Just like the dogs, Just like this time capsule we're going. 1163 01:02:03,063 --> 01:02:06,149 To bury this. Decision in the yard. 1164 01:02:06,157 --> 01:02:08,775 Bury this decision. Be done with it. 1165 01:02:08,783 --> 01:02:10,840 Yeah, put Meri's baby decision next to Drake and. 1166 01:02:10,848 --> 01:02:12,450 Put it to rest. Let's move on. 1167 01:02:12,458 --> 01:02:15,552 Yeah. All right, darling, So you know 1168 01:02:15,552 --> 01:02:19,160 what time it is. It's time for mustard seed and 1169 01:02:19,168 --> 01:02:22,879 shit stain. Who are you going to give your 1170 01:02:22,887 --> 01:02:26,520 mustard seed to this episode? Who really spoke to you in a 1171 01:02:26,528 --> 01:02:30,400 positive way? Well, my mustard seed is going 1172 01:02:30,408 --> 01:02:35,520 to go to Hunter because I thought that Hunter's comment 1173 01:02:35,528 --> 01:02:40,420 about being in a long term relationship and a loving 1174 01:02:40,428 --> 01:02:44,438 relationship should be the premise of whether you decide to 1175 01:02:44,438 --> 01:02:47,436 have sexual relations with a woman or not. 1176 01:02:47,444 --> 01:02:49,686 Sexual relations with that woman. 1177 01:02:49,694 --> 01:02:55,960 I think that given what they were just subjected to by Robyn, 1178 01:02:55,960 --> 01:03:03,130 he didn't let it brainwash him and had a good insight still 1179 01:03:03,138 --> 01:03:07,692 into reality. I also thought it was pretty 1180 01:03:07,700 --> 01:03:11,647 adorable that Hunter put a wrestling trophy into the time 1181 01:03:11,655 --> 01:03:14,440 capsule. I thought that was. 1182 01:03:14,448 --> 01:03:17,583 Yeah, definitely stole my mustard seed on this one for 1183 01:03:17,591 --> 01:03:19,402 sure. There weren't a lot of options. 1184 01:03:19,402 --> 01:03:20,800 It's kind of a weird episode. 1185 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:23,520 We just heard a lot from Robyn, which isn't going to help 1186 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,920 anybody. No, unfortunately. 1187 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,400 I'm going to give my mustard seed to Christine. 1188 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,776 Another Christine mustard seed. 1189 01:03:30,784 --> 01:03:32,508 Wow. Definitely a lot did not happen 1190 01:03:32,508 --> 01:03:36,308 in this episode. I appreciated her reference to 1191 01:03:36,316 --> 01:03:40,120 getting over challenging times and getting through hard times, 1192 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,070 particularly when it comes to finances. 1193 01:03:42,078 --> 01:03:47,452 Most of us have had highs and lows when it comes to money and 1194 01:03:47,452 --> 01:03:52,255 the lows can be very scary. It can feel all-encompassing. 1195 01:03:52,263 --> 01:03:57,190 It has made people literally take their own lives because of 1196 01:03:57,190 --> 01:04:00,935 financial situations. So to be hearing your husband 1197 01:04:00,943 --> 01:04:05,875 talking about the hard times that are coming up and to 1198 01:04:05,883 --> 01:04:10,360 default, to remember we've been there before and we got through 1199 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,440 it is a well adjusted perspective. 1200 01:04:12,448 --> 01:04:15,304 Even if I feel like it's diminishing, you know, the 1201 01:04:15,312 --> 01:04:18,094 actual efforts that it will take to finance college. 1202 01:04:18,102 --> 01:04:21,776 I like that she said that. I feel like that's a good 1203 01:04:21,784 --> 01:04:23,680 reminder when you're talking about finances. 1204 01:04:23,688 --> 01:04:27,548 When Kody has referenced that Christine doesn't have her sunny 1205 01:04:27,548 --> 01:04:30,805 disposition anymore and that Christine has changed, but then 1206 01:04:30,805 --> 01:04:34,340 you see moments like this where Christine is being like the 1207 01:04:34,348 --> 01:04:38,188 levity in the situation and trying to be the one with the 1208 01:04:38,196 --> 01:04:40,880 sunny disposition. Like, look, we have these 1209 01:04:40,888 --> 01:04:43,980 struggles, but there's a bright side to all of it. 1210 01:04:43,988 --> 01:04:46,848 And we'll make it out, you know, to the other side. 1211 01:04:46,856 --> 01:04:50,850 And I think he just doesn't appreciate her anymore because 1212 01:04:50,858 --> 01:04:55,060 he doesn't recognize that she still does have this sunny 1213 01:04:55,068 --> 01:04:58,394 disposition when it comes to trying to move the family 1214 01:04:58,402 --> 01:05:01,168 forward. And I think that he just doesn't 1215 01:05:01,168 --> 01:05:03,625 see it anymore. I think he's just not 1216 01:05:03,633 --> 01:05:07,120 appreciating her anymore. So he's missing moments like 1217 01:05:07,128 --> 01:05:10,880 this where she is sunny disposition Christine. 1218 01:05:10,888 --> 01:05:11,950 Sure. Yeah. 1219 01:05:11,958 --> 01:05:17,144 And now the ones that should be pretty easy for us, shit stain. 1220 01:05:17,144 --> 01:05:18,960 And honey, you know, ladies 1221 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:22,160 first always on this podcast. We respect women on this 1222 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,440 podcast. So your shit stain, gosh. 1223 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,880 Well, it's pretty obvious that each of us is going to pick, you 1224 01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:33,000 know, one or the other here as per usual, and it's. 1225 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:34,920 The leaderboard has these. 2 on it. 1226 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:39,320 It's just a matter of which one you want to lay it out for. 1227 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:43,400 Oh my God, obviously. Given that you were born with a 1228 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:47,560 vagina and that you probably gave away your purity in a 1229 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:51,320 disgusting manner, I think that you probably identify with 1230 01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:53,520 Robyn's story. So maybe, maybe you should pick 1231 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,760 Robyn. Of course it's Robyn for me, of 1232 01:05:56,760 --> 01:06:00,440 course, and mostly just because of the like internalized 1233 01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:03,920 misogyny here and the fact that she thinks herself worth is 1234 01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:08,520 dependent on her virginity and that her children's worth is 1235 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:11,360 dependent on their virginity. And that they're going to be 1236 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:15,680 less of a person and less to give away to a spouse if they do 1237 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:17,600 this horrible thing that she did. 1238 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:21,320 And she's dragging her husband as per usual and she drags her 1239 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:25,016 son into it this time and how he was a mistake and thank God 1240 01:06:25,016 --> 01:06:28,271 she ended up loving him because he's ended up being one of the 1241 01:06:28,271 --> 01:06:30,600 best things in my life, but he was still a mistake. 1242 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:35,040 She's everything about her just pissed me off in this episode. 1243 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:39,968 And I could go on and on and on about the virginity talk and 1244 01:06:39,968 --> 01:06:43,992 the giving up your virginity, the losing your purity, and 1245 01:06:43,992 --> 01:06:47,746 how disgusting that language is when it comes to talking about 1246 01:06:47,746 --> 01:06:50,200 women that way. I'll just leave it at that 1247 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:54,480 because I think that people know where we stand on that topic, 1248 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:58,680 and I don't want to proselytize to people or get on my soapbox 1249 01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:02,520 about it. This was 2013 when this aired. 1250 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:06,600 This way of thinking is still so pervasive, and just like 1251 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:10,040 diminishing women's value is still so pervasive in our 1252 01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:13,600 country that it just pisses me off to watch this. 1253 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:17,040 And yeah, that's all I'll say. Yeah, and all of the coded 1254 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:21,440 language that speaks to the misogyny in our culture and not 1255 01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,800 even being part of this cult where they can talk about this 1256 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:27,880 in an episode and not really even say what happened. 1257 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,400 They don't say that Robyn had sex and she got pregnant. 1258 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:35,080 And like, they don't actually use the language of what 1259 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:36,960 happened. It's all this like metaphoric, 1260 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:39,200 you know, purity and blah, blah, blah. 1261 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:41,520 And it's just it's gross. And it's gross that I followed 1262 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:43,040 it. Like I'm like, yeah, I, I, we 1263 01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:44,080 all. Knew what it was about. 1264 01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:45,040 We all knew. What it was about? 1265 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:48,680 And oh hey, in case we didn't make this clear enough, the 1266 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:52,000 story is about her. Both stories are about her. 1267 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,280 Like what the fuck was that? Both of these made-up real 1268 01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,125 stories from made-up real girls. 1269 01:07:57,133 --> 01:08:00,824 That didn't even flow. Yeah, I know it was. 1270 01:08:00,832 --> 01:08:05,582 She's such an idiot. The throwing and the clanking of 1271 01:08:05,582 --> 01:08:07,840 the Locket on the ground carpet. 1272 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:09,920 It made that much noise on carpet. 1273 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:14,360 Bitch, get out of town. Biggest mistake of all, Robyn, 1274 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:17,108 when you threw it on the ground, you didn't say and then I 1275 01:08:17,108 --> 01:08:21,359 threw it on the ground, Lonely Island style. 1276 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,439 Missed opportunity. Missed opportunity. 1277 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:28,880 So my shit stain this week has to go to Kody Brown, of course, 1278 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:33,200 Robyn's partner in crime. His belief in Robyn's story, You 1279 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:37,920 know that he's obviously super into the idea of her having to 1280 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,800 be reborn as a pure woman before he could use his tool on her. 1281 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:47,200 And then sitting there next to her during the sermon and 1282 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:50,640 receiving her gift. And he was very somber during 1283 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:53,600 the entire thing. It's like he was looking at her, 1284 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,640 looking at the ground, looking at her. 1285 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,120 Some of the other wives that they were giving a sermon. 1286 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:01,560 I would suspect that he would interrupt with his own little 1287 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,080 two cents about what it should be or what it means. 1288 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:05,479 Or let me tell you what she said. 1289 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,240 Let me summarize it for you. Instead. 1290 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:10,680 It was Robyn's sermon, so he sat there very respectfully, even 1291 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,479 though it was the one sermon that probably should have been 1292 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,000 interrupted. You share your shame, darling, 1293 01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,920 and you share your mistakes and I'm going to sit here and share 1294 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:20,359 in your shame with you and I'm here for you. 1295 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:26,479 It gave me really weird vibes. Yeah, proud of the shame sharing 1296 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:31,120 for sure. Almost feels forced and like 1297 01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:35,359 he's forcing her hand because she should be ashamed of this 1298 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,040 and thank God she's done the work so that she could give me 1299 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:43,120 her purity again. It's it's got gross vibes. 1300 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,720 And then of course, the talk about financing for college. 1301 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,680 He's just always looking on the dark side, making things harder 1302 01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:54,920 for people than they need to be and then holding them to these 1303 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:58,200 standards that are not even necessary and hard and 1304 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,120 challenging. And of course, trying to dig a 1305 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:04,280 hole in the backyard by himself and looking ridiculous. 1306 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:08,000 And the whole ending about Meri's baby decision and how he 1307 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:11,600 already probably thinks she shouldn't do it, which they're 1308 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:14,120 avoiding saying, they're both avoiding saying for this 1309 01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,600 storyline. I guess I don't really know. 1310 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,760 But he's alluding to the fact that he's having, what does he 1311 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:22,000 say? His thoughts are adjusting. 1312 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:24,480 So, you know, who knows what the fuck that means? 1313 01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:27,280 And that it's been half a month since they moved in. 1314 01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:29,800 So obviously it's time to have that conversation. 1315 01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:32,560 You've gone back and forth on this for five years and now it's 1316 01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,120 half a month in? Got to make that decision, Buck. 1317 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,280 Kody. The whole thing's gross and Kody 1318 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:40,760 gets my shit stain. Are they setting Leon up for 1319 01:10:40,760 --> 01:10:45,520 another meltdown, breakdown, disappointment by not just being 1320 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:49,400 honest and saying you cannot afford to go to this school? 1321 01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:52,800 A $10,000 scholarship isn't going to get you Jack shit. 1322 01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:54,600 You need to look at other schools. 1323 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:59,440 Only time will tell, darling. Our keep Sweet moment this week 1324 01:10:59,440 --> 01:11:05,000 comes to us from a comment on Spotify from Meg's Over Easy, 1325 01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:08,960 which I love.
