Six seasons and eight episodes 13 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,680 now. It has felt like years and years 14 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,440 and years. And the episode opens with an 15 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,840 overview of everyone being at the Brown Own family cul-de-sac 16 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,800 and what it all means now that everyone has moved in next to 17 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,200 each other. They're a family again, honey. 18 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,520 A family. A real family. 19 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,280 Everyone's just living their best lives. 20 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,748 We see a little truly jumping on a trampoline in an adorable 21 00:01:41,748 --> 00:01:43,720 hot pink Tutu. Get up. 22 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,320 It was quite striking. We see Mckelty walking by with a 23 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:53,200 mannequin wearing a newspaper skirt. 24 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,440 Along the lines of the cellophane dress? 25 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,280 Yes. From previous season or episodes 26 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,120 where it's all tufted. I don't know how to even 27 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,440 describe it. Yeah, it is it Tufted. 28 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:09,320 Layered tufted. Yeah, rolled up newspaper clumps 29 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,200 making a skirt. Yeah, she's Co opting from the 30 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,440 designer that she met. Well, she was inspired, honey. 31 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,840 She's inspired. Not stealing designs. 32 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,160 Whatsoever, she's a creative and she was inspired. 33 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,680 Sure, sure. The opening is basically just a 34 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,440 giant nothing burger. Just clips here and there of 35 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,880 everybody. And Kody has a voiceover where 36 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,600 he tells us that they're all very different and independent. 37 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,680 The wives, you know, everyone's living their lives, doing their 38 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,240 things. And how do we meld our family 39 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,120 back together now that we're at the Brown family cul-de-sac? 40 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,400 And, you know, that's what's been keeping me up at night 41 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,280 recently. I've been going, how are the 42 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,840 Browns going to do this? How are they going to get their 43 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,360 magic back? How are they going to meld back 44 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,000 into their routines? They couldn't meld when they 45 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,680 were that far apart. Now they're trying to meld that 46 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,320 they're this close together. Always an issue here with the 47 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,280 melding of the. Family, the melding. 48 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,480 So then to start the episode, we're basically going to get an 49 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,280 update from each of the wives kind of on what's happening, 50 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,720 what's the deal, what's the latest, what's the Goss, what's 51 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,760 the news? We start with Meri and she tells 52 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,800 us about how Leon is always hanging out with the other teens 53 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,760 or hanging out in Meri's loft upstairs. 54 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,440 Oh, the open loft. Meri just loves hearing all of 55 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,160 the noise again, of all of the kids being back together and we 56 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:46,600 hear some annoying but cute laughter, giggling of the girls 57 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,880 hanging out. I think they're playing a video. 58 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,280 Game or something. There's a clip of Leon on the 59 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,880 couch during Meri's little opening segment, where Leon 60 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,080 volunteers that waiting an extra week to move into the home 61 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,480 really wasn't such a big Dell 00. 62 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:08,296 And I noticed that Leon is still wearing the Unpure Jean vest 63 00:04:08,296 --> 00:04:12,040 and slutty tank top. And I thought, how very dare 64 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,760 you. Are you really trying to 65 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,640 advertise that you still have your purity or not? 66 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,800 I think it's funny that Leon has to say that. 67 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,520 Oh well, moving in one week later than everyone else sucked, 68 00:04:24,840 --> 00:04:28,440 but I guess it didn't turn out so bad, right? 69 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,720 And I'm just reminded that it was only a week. 70 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,520 Difference. They postponed Christmas till 71 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:42,600 January 2nd for little Leon. Leon made such a big drama deal 72 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,240 about not being in their house at the same time as everyone 73 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,680 else that it felt like a month's difference. 74 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,960 Felt like a stunning reaction. Yeah, really. 75 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:57,600 We're reminded again that it was only one week. 76 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,640 OK? One week. 77 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,000 And basically because of the holiday and your mother's own 78 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,840 wrongdoings. Wrongdoings, Yes. 79 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,240 Meri's failures as a mother, well, it sounds like Leon has 80 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,440 recovered, and we're all very thankful for that. 81 00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:17,800 If anything we're thankful for on this podcast, it's Leon being 82 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,040 happy and feeling good. Thank you baby Jesus. 83 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,160 The most important thing, our next wife is Christine. 84 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,040 She talks about having all the kids around and how it's loud 85 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,160 and all of that. She does enjoy it and also the 86 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,080 children have started what she is affectionately calling kids 87 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,000 town in the backyard and they cut to the backyard for a visual 88 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,960 and my my my. It was quite the sight to see a. 89 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,120 Little harkening back to their roots here with Kids Town, this 90 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,240 is bringing up something that the older kids used to do back 91 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,360 at the Lehigh home. They used to do Kids Town and 92 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,960 build stuff out in the little woods, I guess that was next to 93 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,520 it. And we see, yeah, makeshift 94 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,124 tents in the dusty ass backyard. 95 00:06:08,132 --> 00:06:13,462 And we see that they have used pieces of lattice from a deck, 96 00:06:13,470 --> 00:06:18,400 they have used sheets, they have used PVC pipe, they have used 97 00:06:18,408 --> 00:06:20,730 cardboards. And it's very Lord of the Flies 98 00:06:20,730 --> 00:06:23,500 esque. That's a good reference, yes. 99 00:06:23,508 --> 00:06:27,686 Christine says that the only downside of Kids Town is that it 100 00:06:27,686 --> 00:06:30,704 is atrocious. It is indeed atrocious. 101 00:06:30,712 --> 00:06:34,205 It's a disaster. It's absolutely atrocious. 102 00:06:34,213 --> 00:06:38,338 The backyard is a disaster. It totally is. 103 00:06:38,346 --> 00:06:40,255 While they're showing the backyard as well. 104 00:06:40,263 --> 00:06:44,682 I personally loved that they had music playing over that was like 105 00:06:44,682 --> 00:06:48,442 Western Old Town, you know, like oh it's there's going to be 106 00:06:48,442 --> 00:06:51,320 some city slicker coming up and pulling out his gun because 107 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,756 of all the dust blowing everywhere and it literally 108 00:06:53,756 --> 00:06:56,701 looks like a shantytown. What the fuck is going on here? 109 00:06:56,701 --> 00:06:58,400 Also one of the little girls has 110 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,120 a piece of cardboard and is waving it at the ground and like 111 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,760 wafting dust up. Just a wafting dust into the air 112 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,320 for no reason. What's so Well, well, West in 113 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:11,920 that backyard? It is. 114 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,120 It really is. We go to the kids on the couch 115 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:21,040 and Isabel is talking about how some of the moms don't want to 116 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,680 have any more kids and she starts listing off all of the 117 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,640 moms that don't want any more kids and talking about how they 118 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,120 need more kids though. Yes, with all the moms, they 119 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,840 need more kids they need. More kids for their kids town. 120 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,600 It just goes to show the innocence of children. 121 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,320 They just think, oh, more playmates, so much fun. 122 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,440 More kids for kids town for kids town. 123 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,640 Oh boy. Janelle is next on our little 124 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,400 tour of how the wives are doing here at the Brown family 125 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,720 cul-de-sac. And we get this shot of Janelle 126 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,160 in the family room. No one is around. 127 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,240 And at first she's yelling for Maddie. 128 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,400 And I was like, oh, we're going to get Maddie. 129 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,560 We haven't seen Maddie in a second. 130 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:07,880 And then it was Hunter Gabriel Logan. 131 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,600 She's just saying children's names, yelling them towards 132 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,360 upstairs. And then we have her talking to 133 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,800 the camera and she says, you know, this house is great, but 134 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,040 the way that the walls are set up that it can be hard to hear 135 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,120 or that maybe they choose not to hear. 136 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,120 The kids just disappear in the house. 137 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,200 They choose not to hear me. Right. 138 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,280 It was fun to see because it reminded me of times where I 139 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,320 maybe have not heard my mother when I was a kid. 140 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,679 And I was like, oh, I didn't hear, oh, isn't that convenient? 141 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,280 I still have selective hearing as an adult. 142 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,640 I swear, I I don't know what it is, we all do it, but there's 143 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,160 something about your own mother's voice. 144 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,640 Oh. That you're especially attuned 145 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,840 to tuning out. Attuned to tuning out. 146 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,160 I think we all have that affliction. 147 00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:04,640 When we finally make it to Robyn's house, she tells us that 148 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,800 they're going to be burning Kody's duffel bag. 149 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,880 So this would be the duffel bag that he would pack and bring 150 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,360 from house to house when they were in their rentals. 151 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,000 And of course, everyone is disturbed by this duffel bag, 152 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,960 including Robyn. She's so disturbed that she can 153 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,160 barely string a sentence together. 154 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,440 She's so disturbed. Well it's a weird because is she 155 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,680 opening up a box that has the fire pit in it? 156 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,720 Oh, I didn't know and. She goes, this is a fire pit and 157 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,880 literally says this is a fire pit and we're going to burn 158 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,560 Kody's duffel bag. Oh. 159 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,520 God, when she was describing the practice of burning the duffel 160 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,760 bag was when I was most impressed by her because she 161 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:52,280 said something along the lines of a visual stimulation of a 162 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,520 memory. And when he would bring the bag 163 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,471 back and forth to the houses and it served its purpose, but 164 00:09:58,471 --> 00:10:02,400 it's no longer needed. And I was a bit stimulated 165 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,945 myself when she said that it was going to be a visual 166 00:10:05,945 --> 00:10:09,000 stimulation of a memory. I thought, wow, stimulation, 167 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,480 It's quite a word. I think she meant simulation, 168 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,720 but I don't even think that's correct. 169 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,120 So I don't know what she. Bizarre word in what? 170 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,440 She was really saying they just let her keep going. 171 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,320 Like keep talking, girl, we're going to keep it in. 172 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,280 We're not going to edit that out. 173 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,200 We're keeping it in. We're going to highlight that. 174 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,120 No, and she's talking about yeah, how he would show up with 175 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,240 the bag so they would see this ugly ass bag when he showed his 176 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,933 mug on their doorsteps and then when he would leave there was 177 00:10:33,933 --> 00:10:37,080 an empty spot where the bag should be. 178 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,520 So symbolic. Really, really it's. 179 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,992 Almost poetic, it's stimulating. 180 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:49,360 Their use of words, it just never ceases to amaze me. 181 00:10:49,368 --> 00:10:53,428 And this is just another ridiculous thing to do. 182 00:10:53,436 --> 00:10:57,494 Another weird ass way to get the family together. 183 00:10:57,502 --> 00:11:01,927 We have to Berry hatchets in the yard. 184 00:11:01,935 --> 00:11:07,960 Berry coolers, bury dead bodies, burn bags. 185 00:11:07,968 --> 00:11:10,444 Yeah. What are they doing? 186 00:11:10,452 --> 00:11:15,048 With this season, it feels to me like there are quite a few 187 00:11:15,056 --> 00:11:19,080 things happening that are production fueled, where a story 188 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,776 producer or whatever meets with the family beforehand and 189 00:11:22,776 --> 00:11:25,215 they have to have something happen for the show. 190 00:11:25,223 --> 00:11:28,560 So you brainstorm and you come up with ideas of what you can 191 00:11:28,568 --> 00:11:30,570 do. Unfortunately, I don't think 192 00:11:30,578 --> 00:11:33,820 they quite took the exercises far enough because not having 193 00:11:33,828 --> 00:11:37,480 the, for example, family mission statement ready when they were 194 00:11:37,488 --> 00:11:40,040 burying a time capsule doesn't make any sense. 195 00:11:40,048 --> 00:11:42,908 But they do have to have content for the episodes. 196 00:11:42,916 --> 00:11:46,335 When we were looking at Season 6, we were going, wow, there's 197 00:11:46,343 --> 00:11:49,792 so many episodes this season. So I think they could have 198 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,120 dialed back the useless exercises and really stuck to 199 00:11:53,128 --> 00:11:55,427 things that mattered or made sense. 200 00:11:55,435 --> 00:11:58,540 But I think throughout this season we're going to notice 201 00:11:58,548 --> 00:12:02,250 more and more things happening, activities where it just feels 202 00:12:02,258 --> 00:12:07,415 almost like filler and stuff to do, so they have things to film. 203 00:12:07,415 --> 00:12:09,240 It's forced moments to get the 204 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,480 family together in one spot, especially when you do have this 205 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,280 many kids that are probably part of activities and sports. 206 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,000 And even when they, you know, get to the part here where 207 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,120 they're going to burn the bag, it's kind of sparse. 208 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,080 You can tell not all 17 kids are there. 209 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,200 They're like single line around it and it's right, there's 210 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,720 plenty of spaces between them. The kids are like, what the fuck 211 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,040 are we doing? Like, it's bizarre. 212 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:37,960 And I get it. I get that they're trying to 213 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:43,120 make moments for the show two in a row like this, the time 214 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,080 capsule burying a cooler that they couldn't think of anything 215 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,760 better to bury than our red Igloo cooler. 216 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,960 And now they're going to burn a bag. 217 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,000 I get what they're doing but it's very forced and awkward. 218 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,040 The wives give us some more of their thoughts on the duffel 219 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,080 bag, including Christine who says that the bag was like Kody 220 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,200 was coming over for a sleepover when he would show up with that 221 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,200 bag just coming over for the night, popping in for a 222 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,160 sleepover. Your sexy husband here here for 223 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,198 a sleepover, love you Christine. 224 00:13:17,206 --> 00:13:21,740 My favorite response to the bag was of course Janelle who says I 225 00:13:21,740 --> 00:13:25,232 never really thought much about the bag and I love it. 226 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,640 I was lol in 'cause I was like thank you. 227 00:13:28,648 --> 00:13:32,474 Thank you, Janelle for being you and bringing us this special 228 00:13:32,482 --> 00:13:34,660 moment. One normal person that's not 229 00:13:34,668 --> 00:13:39,904 bothered by this bag that carries these horrible visual 230 00:13:39,912 --> 00:13:44,442 stimulations. Not the stimulation. 231 00:13:44,450 --> 00:13:52,640 Oh God, oh Lord my God. Kody says to Janelle it's a 232 00:13:52,648 --> 00:13:56,308 symbol of her independence. Yes, because she got to get rid 233 00:13:56,308 --> 00:13:58,396 of him. When he would pick up that bag, 234 00:13:58,396 --> 00:14:00,160 she'd go. Thank God he's he's packing up 235 00:14:00,168 --> 00:14:01,952 the bag. Get the fuck out. 236 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,736 And we immediately cut to Kody putting the duffel bag in a fire 237 00:14:05,736 --> 00:14:08,520 pit in the backyard. This must be the one that Robyn 238 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,144 was unboxing if that's truly what happened. 239 00:14:10,152 --> 00:14:12,074 I love how you got. That it was weird. 240 00:14:12,082 --> 00:14:14,910 I did not even notice at all. I thought she was just, you 241 00:14:14,918 --> 00:14:17,478 know, sorting through her horde. I had no idea what was going. 242 00:14:17,486 --> 00:14:20,702 On sometimes it just feels like they give her very fed lines, 243 00:14:20,710 --> 00:14:23,992 like she just doesn't know what to say or do. 244 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,472 And I've caught a couple of instances where they're trying 245 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,120 to get her to say more. They're feeding her lines and 246 00:14:31,128 --> 00:14:33,866 it. She had to have been unboxing it 247 00:14:33,866 --> 00:14:37,040 and putting it together like the metal fire pit itself 248 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,920 because she said this is a fire pit. 249 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:47,400 And I do apologize because we keep saying bag in our Minnesota 250 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:48,560 accent. It's a bag. 251 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:54,640 And we make fun of Big Dull and I'm sure this episode we're 252 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,000 going to get made fun of her bag. 253 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,840 Yeah. Bag, you got to carry your big 254 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,360 dull and a big bag. Literally when I lived in 255 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,120 California, people would be like, say it again and I'm like 256 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,960 bag. And they're like, no, it's bag. 257 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,880 And I'm like bag and like bag. And I'm like, what? 258 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,160 And they're like bagel. I'm like bagel a bagel. 259 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,320 It's a bagel. I don't understand this. 260 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,480 I don't hear it being different but okay. 261 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,880 I know. I just know people are gonna 262 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:24,360 catch it from us, so I have to find it out because we know it's 263 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,400 there. We don't hear it, but we know 264 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,520 it's there. OK, so apologies for saying bag 265 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,400 on repeat for like 10 minutes. Here I'm trying to say duffel 266 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,120 before it so that it kind of eases the pain of the bag. 267 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:42,000 Gosh, you're so smart. It's a fire pit. 268 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,120 Fire pit. Well, Kody is putting this 269 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,600 duffel bag in a fire pit in the backyard. 270 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,880 We get some more precious pearls from the wives, including 271 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,040 Christine. Well, they're kind of going back 272 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,280 and forth between the couch and the setup of this thing. 273 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,080 So that's going to happen a lot in this episode where we're 274 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,120 going to reference voice overs and couch moments. 275 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,840 And just like usual, there's a lot of back and forths and 276 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,200 Christine is giving Kody a bit of a hard time. 277 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,840 We'll get to get Josh in him, a little bit about how there are 278 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,120 other ways to destroy this duffel bag other than burning 279 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,240 it. And she has a little humorous 280 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,440 list of things to do. I don't really recall any of 281 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,920 them other than burning the bag and then collecting the ashes. 282 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,920 My favorite one is we could caught it up. 283 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,440 Oh yeah, caught it up. We could caught it up into a. 284 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,080 Million little pieces, but if they decide to burn it, they 285 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,520 could collect the ashes, which would be so symbolic and lovely, 286 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,640 I guess for something and somewhere. 287 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,960 But ultimately, burning the duffel bag is really a 288 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:46,833 celebration, a victory of being in the homes, according to 289 00:16:46,833 --> 00:16:50,040 Kody. Right before they start this 290 00:16:50,048 --> 00:16:55,334 massive fire that could cause catastrophic events to happen. 291 00:16:55,342 --> 00:17:00,706 Oh wow. A fire engine goes wailing by. 292 00:17:00,714 --> 00:17:07,109 They joke that this was a setup. Very weird that a fire truck 293 00:17:07,117 --> 00:17:10,577 goes by. Yeah, it was a little ironic, 294 00:17:10,585 --> 00:17:12,440 yeah. Especially uncontrollably. 295 00:17:12,448 --> 00:17:15,243 Right. Burning a random odd object 296 00:17:15,252 --> 00:17:19,520 outside of your brand new homes. Great, great idea there. 297 00:17:19,528 --> 00:17:21,417 Was some reference to the, like, black smoke? 298 00:17:21,425 --> 00:17:23,654 Like, is that a problem? And it's like, yeah, you should 299 00:17:23,654 --> 00:17:25,099 breathe it in. You should totally breathe it 300 00:17:25,108 --> 00:17:27,271 in. Yeah, Kody's like, I don't know 301 00:17:27,271 --> 00:17:30,645 about this black smoke. Like, well, you are burning 302 00:17:30,653 --> 00:17:35,791 plastic in front of your brand new homes in a fire pit that 303 00:17:35,799 --> 00:17:38,901 Robyn assembled, which seems awfully dangerous this. 304 00:17:38,909 --> 00:17:40,970 Is it this? Is it? 305 00:17:40,978 --> 00:17:44,044 The fire hazard isn't even the bag on fire, it's the fire pit 306 00:17:44,052 --> 00:17:46,796 that it's in. Just structurally the 307 00:17:46,804 --> 00:17:52,425 stimulation of it all. After TLC pays some bills with a 308 00:17:52,425 --> 00:17:55,600 commercial break, we return to Robyn's house and I'm wondering, 309 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,734 oh, what is Robyn assembling now? 310 00:17:57,742 --> 00:18:01,520 Turns out I was wrong. Kody is there on his lonesome. 311 00:18:01,528 --> 00:18:04,790 Maybe Robyn is at the store spending some money. 312 00:18:04,798 --> 00:18:08,640 Kody's hanging out at Robyn's though, yeah. 313 00:18:08,648 --> 00:18:10,910 Wow. I wonder if there's a ticker 314 00:18:10,918 --> 00:18:13,469 board for that because yeah, we're going to see that again, 315 00:18:13,477 --> 00:18:14,535 obviously. Or should we? 316 00:18:14,543 --> 00:18:19,110 It would be perfect timing to start it because we are at the 317 00:18:19,118 --> 00:18:21,235 cul-de-sac. This is kind of like the first. 318 00:18:21,235 --> 00:18:21,480 Yeah. 319 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,412 Episode that we're doing outside of Christmas after they've 320 00:18:25,412 --> 00:18:27,640 moved in. I think we should start a 321 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,640 ticker. Oh honey, I don't have the 322 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,720 strength, nor the stamina nor the concern or the care. 323 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,600 But if you want to, you know, maybe it will fulfill some of 324 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,920 your ADHD needs. It would the visual stimulation 325 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,240 of it alone. Every time that they get there I 326 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,120 will just get titillated, stimulated, add another check. 327 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,360 Put it in the bag. Put it in the bag. 328 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,240 Yeah, Kody's alone at Robyn's house, and he lets us know that 329 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,840 he's meeting with the manufacturers of my sister 330 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,920 wife's closet jewelry with a goal of designing jewelry pieces 331 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,880 for each one of his wives for Mother's Day. 332 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,120 If you were to hear that story, you might think, wow, what a 333 00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:09,720 loving husband and what a great idea. 334 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,720 But we know the truth, he only loves Prabin and it is not a 335 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,120 good idea. And it will be proven that it is 336 00:19:16,120 --> 00:19:18,400 not a good idea. But we won't learn that in this 337 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,280 episode, children. All the more reason to subscribe 338 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,920 and to follow so that you can hear the end of this riveting 339 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,960 tale of Kody's jewelry. I don't even know. 340 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,360 Failure, stimulation, failure. What a failure. 341 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:38,360 We meet Mike and Gina again, the new manufacturers that are 342 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,680 ex-husband and wife. I thought that's what the thing 343 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,040 was. And neither one of their last 344 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,320 names are actually the name Marino or whatever. 345 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:51,480 Yeah, it's Gina and Michael Wilson, which I was like Wilson. 346 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,320 I thought it was Moreno Enterprises. 347 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,440 You're right. So maybe it's named after their 348 00:19:55,440 --> 00:20:00,240 first born Moreno. Baby name Moreno. 349 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,920 Oh, moreno's so cute. He has them there because he 350 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,240 wants their input. Their input is going to allow 351 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,320 him to get his foot out of his mouth. 352 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:15,800 Oh yeah. So his shitty ideas coupled with 353 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:20,240 their not so shitty ideas will allow him to not look like such 354 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,160 an idiot. Right. 355 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,240 And these Mother's Day gifts that are truly from the heart. 356 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,320 And who is he going to start with? 357 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,600 But of course, his number one, yeah. 358 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,880 Robyn. He claims he was inspired by 359 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,800 Robyn when he starts with her. And I thought, oh, I wonder if 360 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,080 we're going to hear about the other wives inspiring him. 361 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,000 I doubt it. But you never know, he could 362 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,480 prove us wrong. He does say that she is a bird 363 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:50,480 and ILOLOL, because I was thinking, I do feel as if you 364 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,400 have said that she looks like a bird. 365 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,560 We have referenced that she has bird like features, that 366 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,600 sometimes she looks like a bird with a wig on and he's saying 367 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,040 she is a bird. But also her name is Robyn. 368 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,960 Oh, and it is, oh, the blue eggs, I didn't even connect the 369 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,000 dots. So it's, oh, I'm such an idiot. 370 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,680 I'm as dumb as Kody. But Kody is convinced that Robyn 371 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,920 was like a phoenix rising out of the ashes after her divorce. 372 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,840 You know, a successful, triumphant story. 373 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,400 So obviously that's why she's like a bird. 374 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,600 Duh. Not that her name's Robyn or 375 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,600 that she lays blue eggs. Or that she looks like she has a 376 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,240 beak from the side and that. She she walks with her head, 377 00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:35,076 going in and out and in and out. 378 00:21:35,084 --> 00:21:37,268 Oh, many a bird comparison for our Robyn Brown. 379 00:21:37,276 --> 00:21:39,864 And who's next on the list, darling? 380 00:21:39,872 --> 00:21:44,420 #2 be but Meri. Oh, Meri. 381 00:21:44,428 --> 00:21:51,420 And her quality that he is drawing inspiration from is her 382 00:21:51,420 --> 00:21:57,064 extreme loyalty and she just needs some sort of symbol that 383 00:21:57,072 --> 00:22:02,178 will demonstrate her extreme loyalty, perhaps like that of a 384 00:22:02,178 --> 00:22:08,262 dog. Maybe another animal like a dog. 385 00:22:08,262 --> 00:22:12,320 Gina's like, no, no woman wants 386 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,600 to be compared to a dog, Kody. See, it's already paying off. 387 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,600 His stupid ideas are being corrected by Moreno Enterprise 388 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,080 leadership. His paw just got pulled out of 389 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,080 his mouth by Gina, thank goodness. 390 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,600 Put that dog in the corner, Kody. 391 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,480 Bury that dog in the backyard. Where we have buried many a dog, 392 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,920 unfortunately in this family, and they decide that a better 393 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:43,040 symbol than a loyal Labrador would be a crown with a heart on 394 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,520 it. And not just any crown with a 395 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:50,440 heart attached to the bottom. Yeah, I think the crown is 396 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,966 sitting on the heart and the way you said that made it sound 397 00:22:52,966 --> 00:22:55,800 like the crown had a heart on, which I thought was great. 398 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,280 And I hope I get to keep it in yes. 399 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:03,000 Oh, the stimulation, the visual stimulation I'm trying to lay 400 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,800 out for you all here. Moreno Enterprises gave the 401 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,840 thumb up with that crown of the heart on, so that's good. 402 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,320 That's great. We are going to add a very 403 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:19,200 special word and you know, Kody can't think of any better word 404 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:24,520 than loyalty, except let's just put a twist on it and go with 405 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,480 the Latin word for loyal, which is fidelis. 406 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,320 Oh I love how he knew that already. 407 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,160 He's just so scholarly in his language. 408 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,920 Mr. Mike is the one that suggests adding a word to the 409 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:44,480 heart with the crown on its ball sack shaped phallic thing. 410 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,960 And you know, Kody just gives him all of the praise, but then 411 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,960 all of a sudden just pulls the word fidelis out of his butt. 412 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,800 So not staged at all, not already come up with at all. 413 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,760 Listen, this joint venture is working smoothly and beautifully 414 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,760 already and we're only two wives in. 415 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,400 So it can only get better from here, including Janelle. 416 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,360 It's interesting because he kind of takes this turn for the 417 00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:13,200 second wives where it becomes elements like earth, wind and 418 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,160 fire. And I thought, why wasn't Meri 419 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,760 fire? Because Meri would be fire and 420 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,600 then it would be like flames and it's burn your house down. 421 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,600 That's Meri. But unfortunately I wasn't part 422 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,160 of the meeting so I didn't get to suggest that. 423 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,080 We went from animals to elements. 424 00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:33,520 Yep, very quickly. No direction changed for Moreno 425 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:34,520 Enterprises on that. One. 426 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,600 No explanation whatsoever. Yeah. 427 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,397 But Janelle is Earth, of course, and what would better 428 00:24:40,397 --> 00:24:44,160 symbolize Earth than a tree? And you know, our friend Gina 429 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:48,520 was talking about what a tree means and how it stays where it 430 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,655 is and that it's, I don't know. 431 00:24:50,663 --> 00:24:53,780 I feel like what she was describing was actually the 432 00:24:53,788 --> 00:24:56,680 loyalty bit for Meri. Like always there, I thought, 433 00:24:56,688 --> 00:25:00,135 why aren't you saying like it has roots and then there's 434 00:25:00,143 --> 00:25:02,860 branches and whatever. But you know, Gina's the 435 00:25:02,868 --> 00:25:07,136 creative genius here, not me. She said grounded with 436 00:25:07,144 --> 00:25:09,760 stability. See, stability's not the same as 437 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,349 fidelity. What am I talking about? 438 00:25:11,357 --> 00:25:14,940 I think that they are kind of just spitballing at this point 439 00:25:14,948 --> 00:25:19,241 and trying to throw out other ideas for the wise and they kind 440 00:25:19,241 --> 00:25:21,360 of do meld together in a sense. 441 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,400 Well, Kody is so discerning that they better watch out because 442 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,200 he's going to tear their thoughts apart. 443 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,880 Just kidding, that's not the case. 444 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,240 And last but not least, we get to Christine. 445 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,725 Oh, she's easy, but not so easy. 446 00:25:36,733 --> 00:25:40,560 Her priMeri element is wind. Very ethereal. 447 00:25:40,568 --> 00:25:43,588 The winds of love. Yeah, he says. 448 00:25:43,596 --> 00:25:49,714 It's going to be very hard to put wind and air into a design, 449 00:25:49,714 --> 00:25:54,866 and how do you do that? And he brings up that when he 450 00:25:54,874 --> 00:25:59,096 thinks of wind and air, he thinks like a fairy, and he 451 00:25:59,104 --> 00:26:01,644 thinks Christina's very much like a fairy. 452 00:26:01,652 --> 00:26:06,414 And every once in a while, they can bite too, because they're 453 00:26:06,422 --> 00:26:08,269 mischievous. They absolutely are. 454 00:26:08,277 --> 00:26:11,880 They're usually ethereal, but then that little mischievous 455 00:26:11,888 --> 00:26:15,109 glance comes around the corner and bites ya. 456 00:26:15,117 --> 00:26:16,840 Fairies like to bite, apparently. 457 00:26:16,848 --> 00:26:20,429 I've never heard this before. Maybe it's part of some sort of 458 00:26:20,429 --> 00:26:21,858 classic tale from days gone past. 459 00:26:21,866 --> 00:26:27,095 I have heard it in Irish folklore that fairies do bite. 460 00:26:27,103 --> 00:26:33,880 Are you well well researched in the Irish lore world? 461 00:26:33,888 --> 00:26:42,260 I I don't want to say yes here. Then you'll be skirting eyes pop 462 00:26:42,260 --> 00:26:45,894 quiz hotshot. When I was younger I was 463 00:26:45,902 --> 00:26:49,880 obsessed with fairies. Not going to lie, like many 464 00:26:49,888 --> 00:26:53,195 little girls are, I was obsessed with fairies. 465 00:26:53,203 --> 00:26:56,810 And they like to bite. They do. 466 00:26:56,818 --> 00:26:59,535 It's a very weird fact about them. 467 00:26:59,543 --> 00:27:04,520 I am curious who else out there knew this? 468 00:27:04,528 --> 00:27:07,880 Well, I think it's funny that you're calling it a fact, as if 469 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,660 fairies are real and they really bite like it is a fact. 470 00:27:11,668 --> 00:27:16,035 Pretty sure that they are real, and I resent the fact that you 471 00:27:16,043 --> 00:27:17,612 would insinuate that they are not. 472 00:27:17,620 --> 00:27:21,732 I know, so dismissive of me. It was very dismissive. 473 00:27:21,740 --> 00:27:24,830 Thanks for apologizing. You're welcome. 474 00:27:24,838 --> 00:27:32,276 There is Irish folklore of changelings like babies being 475 00:27:32,284 --> 00:27:38,559 traded out from their bassinets, and there's a lot of weird fairy 476 00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:43,138 stuff that people really do believe or did believe very long 477 00:27:43,138 --> 00:27:46,800 ago. And I'm curious how fairies 478 00:27:46,808 --> 00:27:52,630 might tie into Mormonism if there are any fairy tales from 479 00:27:52,638 --> 00:27:54,980 the Mormons. But other than their entire 480 00:27:54,988 --> 00:27:59,827 faith. I got it. 481 00:27:59,835 --> 00:28:03,480 Nauvoo is where the fairies come from, honey. 482 00:28:03,488 --> 00:28:05,841 They all birthed out of the Canyon in Nauvoo. 483 00:28:05,849 --> 00:28:08,720 Like a giant vagina, they come flying out. 484 00:28:08,728 --> 00:28:12,576 And perhaps Christine herself was a changeling. 485 00:28:12,584 --> 00:28:14,951 Never know. We will never know. 486 00:28:14,959 --> 00:28:16,760 I have seen her bite a few people. 487 00:28:16,768 --> 00:28:19,240 This scene is wrapped up by Gina. 488 00:28:19,248 --> 00:28:23,330 Thank God she tells us that. It's obvious that Kody loves 489 00:28:23,338 --> 00:28:26,187 them all, but each one is a bit different. 490 00:28:26,195 --> 00:28:29,520 And you know, there's an interesting thing here with 491 00:28:29,528 --> 00:28:31,792 monogamy versus polygamy, because with monogamist, you're 492 00:28:31,792 --> 00:28:35,170 trying to find all of these qualities that he loves in his 493 00:28:35,178 --> 00:28:39,410 four different wives and one person, but he gets it in four 494 00:28:39,418 --> 00:28:41,700 different people. Isn't that touching? 495 00:28:41,708 --> 00:28:45,488 She's trying to articulate how she feels about monogamy. 496 00:28:45,496 --> 00:28:51,635 It's as if the producers asked her a question and she's 497 00:28:51,643 --> 00:28:56,260 struggling here. But Mike, her kind husband, 498 00:28:56,268 --> 00:29:01,900 pipes up and has a revelation that perhaps it's like all of 499 00:29:01,908 --> 00:29:06,100 the wives were meant to be together, and they become 10. 500 00:29:06,108 --> 00:29:14,198 Hello. Yeah, you know, as Meri would 501 00:29:14,206 --> 00:29:18,998 say, we don't go weird. Some poor producer asked these 502 00:29:19,006 --> 00:29:23,732 two a question and they could not form an articulate answer. 503 00:29:23,740 --> 00:29:28,022 No, it was a little ridiculous, but I guess the way that they 504 00:29:28,030 --> 00:29:31,304 were going to wrap that up and then to put the cherry on top of 505 00:29:31,304 --> 00:29:34,128 that ending, Kody tells us that his biggest fear in 506 00:29:34,128 --> 00:29:37,960 designing these wonderful gifts for his wives is that one 507 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:43,018 of the wives will be jealous of another piece of jewelry that 508 00:29:43,018 --> 00:29:46,460 a different wife receives. What an understandable fear. 509 00:29:46,468 --> 00:29:48,208 I totally get it. It would. 510 00:29:48,216 --> 00:29:50,440 It frightens me. Now I'm frightened. 511 00:29:50,448 --> 00:29:54,876 The potential of jealousy. My God, Oh Lord, no. 512 00:29:54,884 --> 00:29:57,463 Not in this family. Never. 513 00:29:57,471 --> 00:30:02,580 Kody introduces us to the next scene by telling us that they've 514 00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:06,360 been asked to put together the My Sister Wife's Closet 515 00:30:06,368 --> 00:30:09,680 collection in a store via a wholesale line. 516 00:30:09,688 --> 00:30:14,340 And this is going to make me ask some questions in the future, 517 00:30:14,348 --> 00:30:17,965 but we'll get to that. And Meri tells us that some 518 00:30:17,973 --> 00:30:21,304 people were asking for less expensive pieces, so they're 519 00:30:21,312 --> 00:30:26,100 going to do this wholesale line at a lower price point. 520 00:30:26,108 --> 00:30:29,820 I think it makes sense. I'm not so sure how they're 521 00:30:29,828 --> 00:30:34,832 going to go about this. Gina and Mike are really the 522 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:38,080 driving force behind this meeting. 523 00:30:38,088 --> 00:30:47,440 They are helping facilitate this meeting between the family and a 524 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,280 casino called Silverton Casino. 525 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,480 I've never heard of it. Nope, it's a happening place. 526 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:00,160 They're going to carry huge gaudy silver jewelry in their 527 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,960 gift shop. So sure, I guess it goes 528 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:08,680 together. We get couch moments here and we 529 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,480 get a little bit of back story on where Christine and Janelle 530 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,600 are fitting into the jewelry line again and Christine says 531 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:21,800 that she is focusing on the fun factor which she sees happening 532 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:26,640 in this new line. I don't understand the point of 533 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,440 that, how she's seeing a fun factor in this new cheaper line 534 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,280 of the. I know that is not explained at 535 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,880 all, as if it's going to be neon or going to, you know, expand 536 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,400 and shrink. Like, I don't know what's fun 537 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:38,720 about it. It's just cheaper. 538 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,000 She brings up the fact that she was going to get into real 539 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,000 estate and realizes that no, there's just not enough time in 540 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,960 my busy schedule with having a small child named Truly and 541 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,920 other small children. Nope, Nope, Nope. 542 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,240 Can't do the Realty thing, no time for that. 543 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:01,000 But this fun factor of a lesser price point, wholesale jewelry, 544 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,520 sure, I can get on board with that. 545 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:09,360 And we get from Janelle that, Nope, still focused on real 546 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:14,960 estate. Yeah, big, huge eye roll from 547 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,600 Robyn that they focus in on. We'll see. 548 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,320 Janelle's just trying to forge her own path, she tells us. 549 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,040 And Robyn, she doesn't like that, because Robyn wants to 550 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,680 forge her own path, but she needs everyone else to forge it 551 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,000 for her. She can't really do it. 552 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,400 I don't get what they were trying to go for here by 553 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:36,440 pointing out just specifically these two and where they're 554 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,600 fitting into the jewelry line. Again, it felt very forced and 555 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:44,000 weird and didn't fit in. Yeah, just another like random 556 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,040 update I guess. Yeah, I think they're just 557 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,240 trying to call out the differences in the wives and 558 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,560 where they're at with it. But the Robyn eye roll, she 559 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:57,800 looks up to the left and keeps her eyes up and to the left and 560 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:04,040 they focus in on it. To me, it's very pointed that 561 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,280 production left that in and zoomed in on her. 562 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,240 When Janelle talks about choosing real estate over the 563 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,280 jewelry line. Yeah, it's more of the same. 564 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:17,520 So I guess she's just still frustrated and annoyed, yeah, 565 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,080 that someone else isn't taking care of her, making her dreams 566 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:21,400 come true. I don't really. 567 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,200 Yeah, but Mike and Gina are trying to take care of it. 568 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,600 They're trying to help Rob. That's their number one goal, is 569 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,280 to make Robyn's dreams come true. 570 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,880 And number two or three or four somewhere down the line is 571 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,080 making money. But really it's about Robyn's 572 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,480 dreams. That's why we're all here, of 573 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:37,120 course. To. 574 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,140 Fulfill Robyn's dreams for her. 575 00:33:39,148 --> 00:33:43,482 Making jewelry that weighs your neck down and gives you a 576 00:33:43,490 --> 00:33:47,054 scoliosis or something. I just don't even know what's 577 00:33:47,062 --> 00:33:50,415 the goal here. Robyn, please tell me other than 578 00:33:50,415 --> 00:33:55,728 to injure our backs, we go to the casino and we're going to 579 00:33:55,736 --> 00:33:59,840 meet Mike and Gina at the casino gift store. 580 00:33:59,848 --> 00:34:05,958 As we're walking into the casino, we see a large fish tank 581 00:34:05,958 --> 00:34:10,480 and there are human mermaids in this fish tank. 582 00:34:10,487 --> 00:34:13,333 So fun the. Family is baffled. 583 00:34:13,342 --> 00:34:16,588 Christine got a little wet. She sure did. 584 00:34:16,596 --> 00:34:19,938 Yeah, she loves, she loves a fish tank and she loves a Murr 585 00:34:19,947 --> 00:34:22,340 person, so this was real exciting for her. 586 00:34:22,348 --> 00:34:26,224 She loves fairies and murr people were finding out and make 587 00:34:26,224 --> 00:34:28,040 believe sky friends named just. 588 00:34:28,199 --> 00:34:31,280 Make believe Christine. She's got the heart of a 12 year 589 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,400 old and the mind of an 8 year old. 590 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,560 You often point out that Christine does her little hop, 591 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,880 skip, jump, clap, clap, clap. Oh yeah, she did it here. 592 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,120 Oh yeah. Hercules. 593 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,280 Hercules. She did the Hercules clap. 594 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,520 Yeah. And Christine says that it's 595 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:51,159 hypocritical, but mermaids can be scantily dressed, whereas 596 00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:54,280 cocktail waitresses they should not be. 597 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:58,880 No, you know the modesty expectations regarding mermaids 598 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,120 are different than cocktail waitresses for sure. 599 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,040 Because, you know, mermaids are just swimming around where 600 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,240 cocktail waitresses are. Cocktail waitressing. 601 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,640 Very true. How? 602 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,520 Dare those cocktail waitresses have their tails out? 603 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,960 Oh no. Wow, wow. 604 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,520 Robyn questions. Is this morally OK to have their 605 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,920 products in a casino? She's really struggling with 606 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:23,520 that. Because, you know, when I think 607 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,640 of a moral pillar, I think of Robyn. 608 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:30,920 When I think of doing right, I think of Robyn and she's really 609 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,880 questioning this decision. Mormonism is against gambling. 610 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,240 But luckily Christine researched the casino before they went to 611 00:35:38,240 --> 00:35:42,560 ensure it was sitting ridden, that there would be no sitting 612 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,560 in that casino. And while yes, she's being very 613 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,840 puritanical, she found out that the casino does have family 614 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:54,280 activities, so it's fine. She would even go there herself. 615 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,480 Yeah, she makes a point to try to sell us on the fact that this 616 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:03,960 is a family casino. Listen, there's mermaids. 617 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,840 She's giddy as a schoolgirl. She doesn't even notice the 618 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,640 hookers and blow in the corner. 619 00:36:09,648 --> 00:36:12,585 She didn't even notice. Lots of family attractions so 620 00:36:12,593 --> 00:36:15,298 it's OK the. Family Casino. 621 00:36:15,306 --> 00:36:17,894 What was it called again? Silverton. 622 00:36:17,902 --> 00:36:21,260 Silverton casino where you bring your family to. 623 00:36:21,268 --> 00:36:24,220 See the mermaids. Yes, for all the family 624 00:36:24,228 --> 00:36:28,344 activities at the gambling hall that the Mormons are OK with. 625 00:36:28,352 --> 00:36:30,485 Well, they're not Mormon, they're AUB members. 626 00:36:30,493 --> 00:36:33,990 Sorry, Mormons, we, we don't want to, you know, call 627 00:36:33,998 --> 00:36:37,270 everything Mormon. It's very obvious that they're 628 00:36:37,278 --> 00:36:39,367 against gambling. They've brought it up many 629 00:36:39,375 --> 00:36:41,620 times. They even when they first moved 630 00:36:41,620 --> 00:36:44,800 there, they're like, do the kids even know what gambling is? 631 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,240 Have we ever even stepped foot 632 00:36:46,240 --> 00:36:47,600 in a casino? No. 633 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,320 And then, you know, a couple of the kids back then were talking 634 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,200 about it or mentioning that Janelle knew what it was. 635 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:58,600 And Kody put the kibosh on that, like, don't talk about it. 636 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,560 And now all of a sudden we're going to sell jewelry out of a 637 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:07,520 casino, and Robyn, of all people, has to bring up the 638 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:12,000 moral complications of this, and Christine's just justifying 639 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,852 it. Oh, it's a family affair. 640 00:37:13,860 --> 00:37:17,310 We could bring our family here. It'd be fine, fine, fine. 641 00:37:17,318 --> 00:37:20,924 But then we get to the name of the gift shop. 642 00:37:20,932 --> 00:37:23,892 We're going to meet in front of the gift shop now and find out 643 00:37:23,900 --> 00:37:27,840 what it's named. And it is named guilt. 644 00:37:27,848 --> 00:37:31,614 Gold Capital letters on the signage. 645 00:37:31,622 --> 00:37:40,120 GUILT, Guilt. The wives literally go oh wow. 646 00:37:40,128 --> 00:37:46,549 It's funny because the sign, yes, I mean, it says guilt and 647 00:37:46,557 --> 00:37:49,026 they're Hemming and hanging over the name of the store. 648 00:37:49,034 --> 00:37:52,636 But when you just, you know, turn your head ever so slightly 649 00:37:52,636 --> 00:37:56,140 and focus your eyes, you can see through the window that it's 650 00:37:56,140 --> 00:37:58,755 just a gift shop. There's just like, crap in the 651 00:37:58,763 --> 00:38:00,200 windows. Just stuff that you buy. 652 00:38:00,208 --> 00:38:02,932 Well, stuff some people buy. There's a lot of crap, just 653 00:38:02,940 --> 00:38:05,720 stuff. Bright colors would buy. 654 00:38:05,728 --> 00:38:09,168 Bright colors, shiny objects, things that say buy me, buy me 655 00:38:09,176 --> 00:38:10,880 so I can sit in your house and do nothing. 656 00:38:10,888 --> 00:38:12,950 That's what it is. It's that kind of store. 657 00:38:12,958 --> 00:38:15,320 It doesn't look. It's not a sex shop. 658 00:38:15,328 --> 00:38:19,384 There's no bottles of booze. There's no, I didn't really see 659 00:38:19,384 --> 00:38:21,560 any gambling stuff around. So it's. 660 00:38:21,568 --> 00:38:23,767 Fuzzy handcuffs, that type of thing. 661 00:38:23,775 --> 00:38:27,739 No hooker boots, it's literally just a gift shop, so you know. 662 00:38:27,747 --> 00:38:30,685 Turns out Robyn can sleep tonight knowing that she's not 663 00:38:30,693 --> 00:38:33,872 selling her wares in a terrible, terrible sin ridden store. 664 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,840 Oh, but first, Robyn needs to make sure that it's appropriate 665 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,376 by going in there and browsing around herself, and she 666 00:38:41,384 --> 00:38:44,120 realizes, oh, it's just a play on words. 667 00:38:44,128 --> 00:38:48,060 It's just shopping for adults and candy for kids. 668 00:38:48,068 --> 00:38:52,780 And actually a lot of this stuff I would have in my own home. 669 00:38:52,788 --> 00:38:55,660 I said shocker, shocker, the hoarder, the shopaholic would 670 00:38:55,668 --> 00:38:58,709 buy all the shit in this store. I was shocked. 671 00:38:58,717 --> 00:39:03,302 I was so surprised. I noticed here that Robyn is 672 00:39:03,310 --> 00:39:08,190 wearing jeans and a light yellow blazer that is buttoned under 673 00:39:08,198 --> 00:39:13,088 her boobies and she is looking very business casual. 674 00:39:13,096 --> 00:39:21,530 And is she trying to look the part of a jewelry saleswoman? 675 00:39:21,538 --> 00:39:24,258 I'm not sure. I don't know what that looks 676 00:39:24,266 --> 00:39:27,149 like. I don't know either, but she's 677 00:39:27,157 --> 00:39:28,475 trying. She's trying. 678 00:39:28,483 --> 00:39:32,752 She really was trying that button that was buttoned way too 679 00:39:32,752 --> 00:39:34,984 tightly under her bosom. It was. 680 00:39:34,992 --> 00:39:37,668 It was cute. Was it cute? 681 00:39:37,676 --> 00:39:39,554 She was looking, she was looking cute. 682 00:39:39,562 --> 00:39:44,080 OK, she was looking something. We went from Aeropostale to 683 00:39:44,088 --> 00:39:48,405 Grandma bargain bin and now we're at business Blazer casual. 684 00:39:48,405 --> 00:39:51,240 Robyn is such a chameleon, you 685 00:39:51,240 --> 00:39:53,200 know, really fitting in wherever she needs to. 686 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,440 Very good at putting a mask on in a costume, that one. 687 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:03,640 At the family friendly casino. Right, Gina says. 688 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,280 Thank you to the manager for allowing them to come in and 689 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,440 show their wonderful product off. 690 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,800 She tells the camera that middle management wherever they go 691 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,280 seems to like the my sister wife's closet concept, but once 692 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,177 it gets leveled up to leadership of these retailers, they seem 693 00:40:18,177 --> 00:40:22,560 to have an issue with customer perception about a polygamist 694 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:27,280 family and what that means. It's like, Oh my God, I guess 695 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,000 that would be weird to try to be selling polygamist. 696 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,080 Is it really that it's polygamous? 697 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,400 Sure, maybe, but also it's the whole idea of why does this 698 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,520 matter? It's jewelry. 699 00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:42,400 What does it have to do with being a sister wife? 700 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,440 That's what I still feel is the fundamental thing is if there's 701 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:49,000 a disconnect, sure, maybe some, you know, leader in some 702 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,680 building that has nothing to do with the retail floor doesn't 703 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,840 understand that no one would care when they're in the store 704 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,240 about the polygamy aspect. But a very serious question 705 00:40:57,240 --> 00:40:59,560 would be why would we ever sell this product? 706 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,560 Why does anyone actually want it? 707 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,240 No one would care, right? Which is, you know, I guess what 708 00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:07,400 everybody knows except for the Browns and poor Gina and Mike. 709 00:41:07,720 --> 00:41:13,200 Gina gets herself all worked up and she says when driving in 710 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,320 Vegas, if you were to look over in the car next to you at a 711 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:22,480 stoplight, you could see a woman and her husband with her 712 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,200 boobies out. Or you could look at these women 713 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,240 with their high necks and multiple other wives. 714 00:41:28,240 --> 00:41:33,720 And why does it matter? Like comparing polygamous and 715 00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:36,200 monogamous and we're in Sin City. 716 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:40,360 Why does it matter? And they're doing their best to 717 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,320 get her worked up, to get some sort of moment here. 718 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,960 And they did trick me. They did trick me. 719 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,960 And then, you know, seeing it next where it seems like she's 720 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,600 going against the family. But no, no, she was just getting 721 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,520 worked up by some producer here. 722 00:41:56,528 --> 00:41:59,550 Yeah, she says. When you look out the window of 723 00:41:59,550 --> 00:42:01,934 the car you could see anybody part. 724 00:42:01,942 --> 00:42:04,269 In Las. Vegas. 725 00:42:04,277 --> 00:42:07,000 And I'm like wow, anybody part OK. 726 00:42:07,008 --> 00:42:09,694 So why do we care about polygamous jewelry? 727 00:42:09,702 --> 00:42:14,848 The moral outrage is what I say the moral outrage. 728 00:42:14,856 --> 00:42:20,440 Kody says that they will only be selling this jewelry in 729 00:42:20,448 --> 00:42:25,200 Silverton and he thinks that it will become a destination once 730 00:42:25,208 --> 00:42:27,618 they announce it to their followers. 731 00:42:27,626 --> 00:42:31,928 Oh yes, people will be flocking to that gift shop in a family 732 00:42:31,936 --> 00:42:34,254 friendly casino to buy polygamous themed jewelry. 733 00:42:34,262 --> 00:42:39,096 They're going to be shopping at Gilt for that polygamous 734 00:42:39,104 --> 00:42:41,281 jewelry. Dropping the dollars. 735 00:42:41,289 --> 00:42:44,652 Like in there? This is where earlier what I was 736 00:42:44,652 --> 00:42:47,664 saying there's something that doesn't align with their whole 737 00:42:47,672 --> 00:42:49,720 wholesale line whatnot Ness. OK. 738 00:42:49,728 --> 00:42:51,268 I get that you're making a wholesale line. 739 00:42:51,276 --> 00:42:54,860 Well, I might be wrong, but I thought wholesale meant that you 740 00:42:54,860 --> 00:42:57,099 distribute it to retailers and they sell it. 741 00:42:57,107 --> 00:43:00,141 It's not as if you just put it in one store. 742 00:43:00,149 --> 00:43:03,679 You are correct. And so that was weird to me. 743 00:43:03,687 --> 00:43:06,998 And also obviously the whole thing of it being a destination 744 00:43:06,998 --> 00:43:10,472 for anyone to go to. It's, it feels to me as if maybe 745 00:43:10,472 --> 00:43:13,500 if you lived 5 miles down the street, you might drive there if 746 00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:14,960 you really cared about sister wives. 747 00:43:14,968 --> 00:43:17,904 But who's going? Oh, my husband wants to go to 748 00:43:17,912 --> 00:43:19,494 Vegas next year. And I'm so excited because when 749 00:43:19,494 --> 00:43:21,990 we, when we go, I'm going to go to this family friendly casino 750 00:43:21,998 --> 00:43:24,840 to the gift shop and I'm going to buy sister wives jewelry 751 00:43:24,848 --> 00:43:27,700 because it's cheaper there than on the website. 752 00:43:27,708 --> 00:43:32,339 What it just I I. We're going to drive all the way 753 00:43:32,339 --> 00:43:35,462 to the outskirts to Silverton, who nobody has ever heard of 754 00:43:35,470 --> 00:43:37,658 before, to go and see the mermaids. 755 00:43:37,666 --> 00:43:40,085 But no, no, no, no, not just the mermaids. 756 00:43:40,093 --> 00:43:43,540 We need to get our sister wives jewelry. 757 00:43:43,548 --> 00:43:45,969 Well. That's why I always say I go to 758 00:43:45,969 --> 00:43:48,824 Silverton. To get some silver. 759 00:43:48,832 --> 00:43:52,575 To wrap up this lovely scene, Kody decides that he's going to 760 00:43:52,575 --> 00:43:55,120 look around guilt because, you know, maybe he's got a little 761 00:43:55,128 --> 00:43:57,283 inner guilt. Maybe he wants to do a little 762 00:43:57,291 --> 00:44:01,485 gender bending and then all of a sudden he sees an apron, A 763 00:44:01,493 --> 00:44:06,056 frilly, frilly apron, and thinks I'm going to put it on and make 764 00:44:06,056 --> 00:44:09,094 fun of myself. And I didn't care at all. 765 00:44:09,102 --> 00:44:11,381 But it happened. And you know, the whole play on, 766 00:44:11,381 --> 00:44:14,775 oh, look at me, my women like to make fun of my masculinity. 767 00:44:14,783 --> 00:44:18,192 I'm a joke. And it just wasn't funny and I 768 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:19,744 didn't care. I don't really know. 769 00:44:19,752 --> 00:44:23,875 No, he says that the women love to downplay his masculinity any 770 00:44:23,875 --> 00:44:28,935 chance they get. Womp womp again, masculinity 771 00:44:28,943 --> 00:44:34,098 talk and this guy and. This guy. 772 00:44:34,106 --> 00:44:37,170 This guy just showboating again, trying to be all cute. 773 00:44:37,178 --> 00:44:39,458 See, you know, maybe they should make aprons. 774 00:44:39,466 --> 00:44:41,460 Maybe they actually would sell aprons. 775 00:44:41,468 --> 00:44:44,179 This is it. The apron is a far better idea 776 00:44:44,187 --> 00:44:45,970 than jewelry in my humble opinion. 777 00:44:45,978 --> 00:44:49,328 At this point, yeah, it it sure is. 778 00:44:49,336 --> 00:44:53,014 Yeah, especially after Kody models it on the show, right? 779 00:44:53,022 --> 00:44:56,480 Add some ruffles. Add some thrills, some frills, 780 00:44:56,488 --> 00:45:00,734 some feathers. Some scales from the mermaid's 781 00:45:00,742 --> 00:45:04,535 tail. This is our mermaid apron, 782 00:45:04,543 --> 00:45:08,190 Christine, Hercules, Hercules and Robyn. 783 00:45:08,198 --> 00:45:10,840 You know, because we always rely on Robyn. 784 00:45:10,848 --> 00:45:13,660 Not only is she the moral compass, but she's the 785 00:45:13,668 --> 00:45:15,832 intellectual lighthouse for all of us. 786 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,328 And she tells the camera this is another opportunity for us. 787 00:45:19,336 --> 00:45:23,380 And if it doesn't work out, we'll need to go back to the 788 00:45:23,388 --> 00:45:25,750 drawing board for my sister wife's closet. 789 00:45:25,758 --> 00:45:31,103 And yeah, you will, because it didn't work selling it on the 790 00:45:31,111 --> 00:45:32,594 website. It doesn't work selling at 791 00:45:32,602 --> 00:45:35,290 Expos. And now you're going to 792 00:45:35,298 --> 00:45:38,860 wholesale distribute exclusively to 1 store inside a casino that 793 00:45:38,860 --> 00:45:42,175 no one's ever heard of. I think you're going to be going 794 00:45:42,175 --> 00:45:43,721 back to the drawing board is what I think. 795 00:45:43,729 --> 00:45:46,248 That's my guess. I don't know, I could be wrong. 796 00:45:46,248 --> 00:45:48,360 To me, at Reeks of we went into 797 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:53,200 this wholesale idea thinking we would sell to local casinos and 798 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,160 we've been striking out, so now we're going to say it's 799 00:45:56,160 --> 00:46:03,520 exclusively at Silverton. At guilt on Silverton, I feel 800 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,480 like there's probably some sort of way that you would say it to 801 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,360 make it sound even more exclusive. 802 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000 Oh, you know, the guilt inside of Silverton. 803 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,400 That's where our jewellery is sold. 804 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,760 This is ridiculous. Oh yeah. 805 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,960 Our Part 2 of the episode starts with following America's 806 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:23,360 favorite gym rat to the gym for their weekly weigh in and 807 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,920 meeting with Sean. And of course I'm speaking about 808 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:30,240 Janelle. Janelle Brown in her leg warmers 809 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:37,080 in that high cut onesie or leotard with the sweat band and 810 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,600 the hair pulled back. She's going to the gym. 811 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:45,720 She did have a sweat band under her bangs in segments of this. 812 00:46:45,720 --> 00:46:48,080 Oh good. Which was pretty funny. 813 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,720 Yeah, it kind of caught me off guard a bit. 814 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,600 She's she's working out, she's working hard, she's trying to 815 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,960 lose that weight. But as she's approaching the 816 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,800 gym, there's a voiceover from her talking about how she's 817 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,760 really plateaued on her weight loss journey. 818 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,600 And we've been on this journey with her. 819 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,080 She has lost weight, plateaued. 820 00:47:05,088 --> 00:47:09,072 Of course, Shawn, her trainer, has really tried to emphasize, 821 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,780 how do you feel? How many inches have you lost? 822 00:47:11,788 --> 00:47:15,076 The things that are you've said before, the nonscale victories, 823 00:47:15,076 --> 00:47:17,630 He's really trying to emphasize that. 824 00:47:17,638 --> 00:47:20,646 And she's still hung up on that damn scale. 825 00:47:20,654 --> 00:47:24,310 Yeah, she reiterates that she has no scale at home. 826 00:47:24,318 --> 00:47:28,668 She was tempted to buy one after their smashing of her scale, but 827 00:47:28,668 --> 00:47:30,862 she did not. She thought she would go right 828 00:47:30,870 --> 00:47:32,480 to the store and buy another one. 829 00:47:32,488 --> 00:47:34,775 Yeah. She fought that temptation her. 830 00:47:34,775 --> 00:47:35,720 Cheapness went out. 831 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,767 That's very Robyn coated, right? 832 00:47:37,775 --> 00:47:38,979 Right. Like Robyn would be like. 833 00:47:38,987 --> 00:47:42,368 I got to go buy another scale. And Janelle controlled herself. 834 00:47:42,368 --> 00:47:45,320 She mentions that her first diet 835 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:49,432 that she ever started was at age 8 and so it's very hard to 836 00:47:49,432 --> 00:47:52,910 break the mindset of not looking at the number on the scale 837 00:47:52,910 --> 00:47:56,175 because it started for her at age 8. 838 00:47:56,183 --> 00:48:01,082 That struck me as so dramatic and early, and maybe it's not, 839 00:48:01,090 --> 00:48:04,014 but I mean, maybe you become aware of it. 840 00:48:04,022 --> 00:48:07,454 But my gosh, to be thinking about dieting at 8 years old, 841 00:48:07,462 --> 00:48:10,130 maybe that's normal. I don't know. 842 00:48:10,138 --> 00:48:15,543 It's definitely not OK, which makes me wonder what else is at 843 00:48:15,543 --> 00:48:18,775 play here. There is a factor of control 844 00:48:18,783 --> 00:48:22,500 that comes in with dieting for a lot of people, having control 845 00:48:22,508 --> 00:48:26,740 over your life, control over your food, your diet for the 846 00:48:26,748 --> 00:48:30,880 moment, that's the case with a lot of eating disorders, is just 847 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,280 needing control over your life in some aspect, and that's part 848 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:39,802 that you can control. So I wonder about the psychology 849 00:48:39,802 --> 00:48:45,204 behind this more and more when we hear about it from her. 850 00:48:45,212 --> 00:48:51,548 I just feel like there's so much more to her story, and I want to 851 00:48:51,548 --> 00:48:55,676 know more about her. Yeah, I I don't know what else 852 00:48:55,684 --> 00:48:57,267 to say. It's just odd. 853 00:48:57,275 --> 00:49:01,080 She gives us these tiny tidbits like dieting at age 8. 854 00:49:01,088 --> 00:49:03,183 Right, Which to me seems extreme. 855 00:49:03,191 --> 00:49:04,947 And you agree that it seems extreme. 856 00:49:04,955 --> 00:49:05,880 It is. Extreme. 857 00:49:05,888 --> 00:49:08,732 Right. So it's just mentioned and then 858 00:49:08,732 --> 00:49:12,434 kind of glossed over, although it is partnered with, like you 859 00:49:12,442 --> 00:49:16,102 said, how she's found it hard to break the cycle of being so 860 00:49:16,110 --> 00:49:19,814 obsessed with the scale and she even refers to it as 861 00:49:19,822 --> 00:49:21,947 devastating. When the number doesn't change, 862 00:49:21,947 --> 00:49:23,856 it's. Devastating for her. 863 00:49:23,864 --> 00:49:28,160 I mean, oh, I feel so bad for her. 864 00:49:28,168 --> 00:49:33,555 And I wonder if at 8 years old, you know, if you're a chubby 865 00:49:33,563 --> 00:49:36,735 little person and you're missing an element of control. 866 00:49:36,743 --> 00:49:38,240 I mean, yeah, I know. I don't. 867 00:49:38,248 --> 00:49:42,509 Know are you getting picked on? Is it familial people picking on 868 00:49:42,509 --> 00:49:45,842 you? Her mom is not particularly in 869 00:49:45,850 --> 00:49:51,140 shape, so it's not, yeah, that pressure from her I wouldn't 870 00:49:51,148 --> 00:49:53,304 feel. But no, you know what? 871 00:49:53,312 --> 00:49:56,928 That's wrong because a lot of moms put pressure, unnecessary 872 00:49:56,936 --> 00:50:00,427 pressure on their girls to be fit and they're not fit 873 00:50:00,435 --> 00:50:01,752 themselves. So I don't know. 874 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,524 I don't know what it is. It's odd to me. 875 00:50:04,532 --> 00:50:07,360 And I want to hear more about her story. 876 00:50:07,368 --> 00:50:12,240 I don't want it to be one of those stories, though. 877 00:50:12,248 --> 00:50:15,245 Where where she's glossing over things. 878 00:50:15,253 --> 00:50:18,384 I want her to be ready to tell her story and I want her to do 879 00:50:18,392 --> 00:50:21,022 it right. And I really hope that when and 880 00:50:21,022 --> 00:50:26,896 if Janelle decides to write a book, I hope she gives us all of 881 00:50:26,896 --> 00:50:29,840 this stuff. I hope she gives us the nitty 882 00:50:29,848 --> 00:50:32,600 gritty into her childhood and why she's struggled with her 883 00:50:32,608 --> 00:50:35,862 weight because she's brought it up so much in the show. 884 00:50:35,870 --> 00:50:38,784 I think it would be beneficial to people who have followed the 885 00:50:38,784 --> 00:50:40,946 show for a long time. And I think this is something 886 00:50:40,954 --> 00:50:42,680 that a lot of women deal with and. 887 00:50:42,688 --> 00:50:46,610 I agree with you that Janelle's story would be very interesting 888 00:50:46,610 --> 00:50:50,375 to hear if it was told thoroughly and truthfully. 889 00:50:50,383 --> 00:50:53,478 You know, obviously you don't want to put too much pressure on 890 00:50:53,478 --> 00:50:54,686 a person to be like Sherry's story. 891 00:50:54,694 --> 00:50:56,747 Sherry's story but a gloss over story? 892 00:50:56,755 --> 00:50:58,184 Fuck that. I hear you. 893 00:50:58,192 --> 00:51:00,885 You don't want to hear a Meri's version of a story, you would 894 00:51:00,893 --> 00:51:05,505 want to hear the truth. Yeah, I think I think back to 895 00:51:05,513 --> 00:51:10,060 the Britney Spears memoir that was released and the fact that 896 00:51:10,068 --> 00:51:14,475 she glossed over so much and there was a ghostwriter involved 897 00:51:14,475 --> 00:51:19,508 and it did not feel authentic. Honestly, unpopular opinion, 898 00:51:19,516 --> 00:51:23,522 that memoir wasn't great and it was a waste of her time. 899 00:51:23,530 --> 00:51:26,660 And she should have waited 10 plus more years until she's 900 00:51:26,668 --> 00:51:29,768 settled and in the right headspace to write it. 901 00:51:29,776 --> 00:51:32,645 And I want that so badly from Janelle. 902 00:51:32,653 --> 00:51:37,432 So if by chance you hear this, Janelle, please, Please wait 903 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,063 until you are fully ready to Share your story, to Share your 904 00:51:41,063 --> 00:51:43,452 story. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 905 00:51:43,460 --> 00:51:52,080 We hear from Sean that he thinks she is neurotic about the scale 906 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:58,380 and she has lost inches and Sean doesn't like how she is 907 00:51:58,380 --> 00:52:00,560 still so fixated on this scale. 908 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,400 He is frustrated with her. I feel like he mentioned that 909 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,520 she recently has lost 10 inches overall, but in the last month 910 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:13,600 alone, 2 1/2 inches. So that's obviously significant 911 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:15,240 regardless of what the scale is saying. 912 00:52:15,240 --> 00:52:19,920 I mean, she's losing literal physical body mass, so whatever 913 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,880 the scale saying, you know. She tells him that she was 914 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,480 thinking of buying another scale and he says he's glad she 915 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,960 didn't. Obviously she is being neurotic 916 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,120 about the scale. I'm glad he's busting her balls 917 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,360 about it because don't get another fucking scale, girl. 918 00:52:32,720 --> 00:52:35,240 As we find out, she's doing weekly check INS anyway. 919 00:52:35,240 --> 00:52:36,983 Weigh ends at the gym with him. 920 00:52:36,991 --> 00:52:39,551 That's enough. And if she's not able to manage 921 00:52:39,551 --> 00:52:41,830 that, that's something to evaluate and to work on. 922 00:52:41,838 --> 00:52:45,143 You can weigh yourself once a week and have that be, you know. 923 00:52:45,143 --> 00:52:46,880 That should be OK in my opinion. 924 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:51,120 She Tees it up that she gets very antsy when they're going to 925 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,853 do these weigh insurance once a month, but then we find out 926 00:52:53,853 --> 00:52:57,234 that they're doing them weekly, so there's no need to get so 927 00:52:57,234 --> 00:52:59,800 worked up. And if she really truly feels 928 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,320 the need to weigh herself every morning and is getting that 929 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:06,600 worked up about a weekly weigh in or a monthly weigh in, she 930 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,400 should be seeing a therapist at this point. 931 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:13,720 And Sean refers her to a nutritionist and wants her to 932 00:53:13,720 --> 00:53:17,400 meet with a nutritionist. I hope that there has been some 933 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:21,200 discussion about seeing a therapist as well and that we 934 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:25,840 just haven't seen that because this is shot in 2013. 935 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:31,000 Therapy is not as mainstream probably in 2013 as it is today. 936 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,480 So hopefully that was brought up at some point as well. 937 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,760 I mean, I agree that it sounds like something she needs to 938 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,360 speak to somebody about more than just a trainer. 939 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,320 Not to put any trainers down, but I think it needs some more 940 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,960 evaluation. So Sean talks about how he 941 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,000 really does want her to meet with a nutritionist and to 942 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:53,440 involve the family more so to start getting behind the meal 943 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:58,360 planning and involving the family in the meal time and 944 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,080 nutrition aspect. He set up a meeting with a 945 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,080 nutritionist named Lisa to review her food choices and 946 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,536 maybe put that plan into action, incorporating the family, 947 00:54:08,536 --> 00:54:11,560 making some better choices. Yeah, he says that since they've 948 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,520 been working together, Janelle has mentioned multiple times 949 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,440 that she is curious about the fact that potentially there 950 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,320 could be food allergies or other things going on with her. 951 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:28,400 So we are going to meet Lisa. We find out Lisa has a trade 952 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:29,880 name. Oh yeah. 953 00:54:30,240 --> 00:54:34,160 Kettlebell bombshell. Kettlebell bombshell. 954 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,320 Janelle has very good descriptive words for Lisa. 955 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,640 Oh. She is tall and statuesque and 956 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:46,040 very intimidating. And I thought, I'm not so sure 957 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:49,600 about the bombshell part, but I am a critical gay man and an 958 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:52,760 asshole, so take it as it is. Is she tall? 959 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,280 Sure. Is she statuesque? 960 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:58,680 Yes, like a Greek God. She definitely is a kettlebell. 961 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:06,840 My first thought upon seeing Lisa is that I miss old beauty 962 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,920 standards. I miss normal people being 963 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:13,840 beautiful. Yeah, I see her and I think of 964 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:17,080 what Janelle was thinking at the time that she met her. 965 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,392 And I'm like God, what happened to individuality and 966 00:55:20,392 --> 00:55:24,715 individuals being pretty for being themselves and having 967 00:55:24,715 --> 00:55:28,760 unique features? Oh God, we're so good cop, bad 968 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:30,720 cop right now. I'm like, she's not a bombshell. 969 00:55:30,720 --> 00:55:33,400 And you're like, she looks like a person. 970 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:37,160 She has features. I love that Janelle is saying 971 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,597 she is a bombshell and that she was intimidated by her and 972 00:55:39,597 --> 00:55:41,760 she's so beautiful. And then we see her and I'm 973 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:47,000 like, yay, a normal woman. That's pretty normal. 974 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,960 Yeah. God, Can you imagine today if 975 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:55,800 they were introducing Lisa the Kettle bell bombshell with her 976 00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:00,000 big old puffed up lips and her hair that looks like everyone 977 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:01,240 else? And she'd be. 978 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,200 Kardashianized or whatever it's called. 979 00:56:03,240 --> 00:56:06,360 Yeah, we don't get that from Lisa and I appreciate it. 980 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:10,160 Thank you, Lisa. Lisa's Real and Lisa talks about 981 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:14,280 the importance of nutritional value of food and aligning that 982 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:15,965 to Janelle's weight loss goals. 983 00:56:15,973 --> 00:56:19,718 Yeah, Lisa shares with us that the workout shapes the body, but 984 00:56:19,718 --> 00:56:23,980 the food shows it off. And I have heard this before. 985 00:56:23,988 --> 00:56:28,135 I think many people who have worked out or met with a 986 00:56:28,143 --> 00:56:30,930 nutritionist or worked with a trainer have probably heard that 987 00:56:30,930 --> 00:56:34,143 you shape the body in the gym and you'll show it off with what 988 00:56:34,143 --> 00:56:38,160 you eat. Well, and according to Lisa, 989 00:56:38,168 --> 00:56:41,880 she's guessing that a 1500 calorie diet makes sense for 990 00:56:41,888 --> 00:56:45,081 Janelle, where she currently is and with her working out and all 991 00:56:45,081 --> 00:56:48,108 of the things and she's going to provide her with some 992 00:56:48,108 --> 00:56:51,120 recipes. She gives her a meal plan, she 993 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,600 hands her some papers, and I'm guessing it's a meal plan with a 994 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,600 shopping list and all of that involved. 995 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,880 And Janelle's a little intimidated, a little nervous 996 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,920 about it. I have to say, when I went to a 997 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,720 gym and got a meal plan myself, it was a relief. 998 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:14,080 And as a mom, meal time is the bane of my existence. 999 00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:20,760 I hate it so much and I often think I should go back to meal 1000 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,880 planning and planning the week out on Sunday or Saturday with 1001 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,240 my husband and I don't know why I don't. 1002 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,000 I don't know why I don't. Well, because you have a husband 1003 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:33,120 that cooks regularly as well, Darling, he does do that. 1004 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,000 Well, that was only for you. Well, and then when you cook, 1005 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,600 you know that ketchup on those noodles, really, you know, it's 1006 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,640 just, it's great. Connie, don't, don't sell 1007 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,120 yourself short. You don't need a meal plan. 1008 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:50,280 Ramen noodles with ketchup Spaghetti you mean, right? 1009 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,150 Yes, almost as good as Robyn's. 1010 00:57:53,158 --> 00:57:56,170 And while this is being reviewed, Lisa, Janelle, 1011 00:57:56,178 --> 00:57:58,007 etcetera, what she's going to do. 1012 00:57:58,015 --> 00:58:00,708 There's this cutaway to Janelle prepping some food or doing 1013 00:58:00,716 --> 00:58:03,222 something in the kitchen. And it was great to see. 1014 00:58:03,230 --> 00:58:06,071 There's like a pile of lettuce and a pile of diced up tomatoes 1015 00:58:06,071 --> 00:58:08,696 and all this stuff. And I was like, it made me a 1016 00:58:08,704 --> 00:58:11,115 little excited. It made me think I should do 1017 00:58:11,123 --> 00:58:13,520 that. Janelle is looking good by the 1018 00:58:13,528 --> 00:58:16,484 way. I have to say they show her 1019 00:58:16,492 --> 00:58:19,535 throughout this segment doing different workouts with her 1020 00:58:19,543 --> 00:58:23,841 sweatband under her bangs and whipping them chains. 1021 00:58:23,849 --> 00:58:26,374 The giant ropes. Giant ropes. 1022 00:58:26,382 --> 00:58:27,738 Chains. The chains. 1023 00:58:27,746 --> 00:58:29,846 She's breaking free of her chains. 1024 00:58:29,854 --> 00:58:35,060 Breaking free of that scale and she's doing that Stairmaster and 1025 00:58:35,060 --> 00:58:38,732 whatever else that Shawn's got her doing, and she is looking 1026 00:58:38,740 --> 00:58:40,038 fierce. You know, there was 1 moment 1027 00:58:40,046 --> 00:58:42,441 where she was like up on her arms and I don't know what she 1028 00:58:42,449 --> 00:58:45,262 was doing with her legs but they were kicked in the air or 1029 00:58:45,270 --> 00:58:47,656 something and it was she was holding up her body. 1030 00:58:47,664 --> 00:58:50,602 It was very different from when we first saw her working out 1031 00:58:50,610 --> 00:58:53,800 where she was struggling to walk on a treadmill and shit. 1032 00:58:53,808 --> 00:58:56,400 Like she was really, really, really struggling with anything 1033 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,244 physical when she started. When she had to push herself out 1034 00:58:59,244 --> 00:59:00,960 of the couch, yes. Yeah, yeah. 1035 00:59:00,968 --> 00:59:04,845 And Janelle tells us that she hopes she gets the same payoff 1036 00:59:04,853 --> 00:59:07,572 from improving her food habits as she did from exercise. 1037 00:59:07,580 --> 00:59:12,386 And I hope so too, Janelle. I am curious because if there is 1038 00:59:12,386 --> 00:59:16,702 not a payoff from this meal planning on top of how often she 1039 00:59:16,702 --> 00:59:20,561 is working out, she needs to get some lab work done if she 1040 00:59:20,561 --> 00:59:24,435 has not already. Yeah, because I think so many 1041 00:59:24,443 --> 00:59:30,574 women struggle with this weight situation and hormones are a 1042 00:59:30,582 --> 00:59:33,280 bitch. I've heard they can make you one 1043 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:37,960 too. Kind of what's Robyn's excuse? 1044 00:59:37,968 --> 00:59:45,100 We got back to the Brown family cul-de-sac and Kody is leaving 1045 00:59:45,108 --> 00:59:50,456 Robyn's to go to Meri's. We'll make that check #2 for 1046 00:59:50,464 --> 00:59:54,442 meaningless time at Robyn's, going to another wives or just 1047 00:59:54,450 --> 00:59:58,104 hanging out there. And we get to Meri's and they go 1048 00:59:58,104 --> 01:00:00,950 into the kitchen and they're packing a picnic. 1049 01:00:00,958 --> 01:00:06,112 Little picnic in a basket. They are going to go to Red Rock 1050 01:00:06,112 --> 01:00:10,464 Canyon. To discuss things. 1051 01:00:10,472 --> 01:00:14,600 Meri's nervous. She's not sure how he's going to 1052 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:15,958 take it. When they have this discussion, 1053 01:00:15,958 --> 01:00:18,130 I wonder what they're going to talk about. 1054 01:00:18,138 --> 01:00:23,080 Kody says we're going to talk about if we're going to take 1055 01:00:23,088 --> 01:00:27,832 scientific measures for baby making, I'm I'm paraphrasing. 1056 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:33,916 As they're arriving at Red Rock Canyon, Kody jokes. 1057 01:00:33,924 --> 01:00:38,628 Would it bother you if I've been here with another woman? 1058 01:00:38,636 --> 01:00:41,590 Meri says. Well, it does know that he said 1059 01:00:41,590 --> 01:00:43,500 that. Yeah. 1060 01:00:43,508 --> 01:00:45,960 Oh, my God. Typical man, putting his foot in 1061 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:47,544 his mouth. Well, this is it. 1062 01:00:47,552 --> 01:00:50,224 Kody does need help from doing, you know, preventing doing this 1063 01:00:50,224 --> 01:00:51,955 because he is just out of control. 1064 01:00:51,963 --> 01:00:55,236 All of them have been there. So just a bad joke. 1065 01:00:55,244 --> 01:00:58,210 And he's an idiot. Robyn and him go on the Fedora 1066 01:00:58,218 --> 01:01:01,060 guy height. That's right at the same. 1067 01:01:01,068 --> 01:01:02,939 Place. I think he's been there with all 1068 01:01:02,939 --> 01:01:05,266 three of the other wives, so only fair that Meri gets 1069 01:01:05,274 --> 01:01:06,898 brought, you know, and she feels special. 1070 01:01:06,906 --> 01:01:10,768 And I'm going to give Robyn props here because she at least 1071 01:01:10,768 --> 01:01:14,880 wore the right footwear. Wow. 1072 01:01:14,888 --> 01:01:20,295 Meri is wearing clogs for climbing and they have a wooden 1073 01:01:20,295 --> 01:01:23,424 heel on them. They're not just some 1074 01:01:23,432 --> 01:01:27,514 Birkenstock flat clogs. No, they are heeled wooden 1075 01:01:27,522 --> 01:01:31,318 clogs. Straight from Sweden or wherever 1076 01:01:31,318 --> 01:01:33,040 the hell of clogs they're from. 1077 01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:35,800 No, they're not from Sweden. Where are they? 1078 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:37,760 Dutch. Dutch. 1079 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:39,320 They're Dutch. Clogs. 1080 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:42,360 So she's wearing her Dutch clogs, and they're going on a 1081 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,920 hike up a place called Red Rock Canyon, and I'm going Mayor, 1082 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,280 mayor, mayor, mayor, mayor. I always thought you were a 1083 01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:51,040 little smarter than this. I mean, it literally was. 1084 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,360 I was scoffing because it was ridiculous. 1085 01:01:53,440 --> 01:02:01,680 Meri is going Oh my Oh my, he's trying to get her to climb up 1086 01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:03,560 this thing with her clod hoppers. 1087 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:06,080 Click, click, click, click. Meri has a voice over where she 1088 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,680 says he seems to be in a good mood. 1089 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,600 I was like, Oh my God, this is so good. 1090 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,320 Meri's going into it like I'm wearing my clogs. 1091 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,760 Kody's in a good mood. We're going to talk about this 1092 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:18,400 baby decision. I've got a picnic. 1093 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:20,240 Things are great. I'm wearing a scarf. 1094 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,400 You can barely see my neck. My head is popping out of that, 1095 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:26,000 looking crazy. She's on her way up the side of 1096 01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,880 that hill. Slowly but surely, she'll get 1097 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,360 there. She'd have been better off 1098 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,720 climbing up that thing barefoot, honestly. 1099 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,200 They they show multiple moments of her kind of, you know, I'm 1100 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:37,760 going to, I'm going to get my OK. 1101 01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:39,160 I'm sturdy. I'm sturdy at the table. 1102 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:40,600 My name is Mayor. I'm here, I'm here. 1103 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,240 And it's like, OK, girl, you should have just worn some 1104 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:45,800 tennis shoes, but whatever. When they finally get planted on 1105 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:49,440 the big rock, they sit down. I'm envisioning them sitting 1106 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,680 crisscross applesauce. I don't think they were, but you 1107 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:54,880 know, they're just having a great time. 1108 01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:57,720 Kody throws down that blanket, makes it all nice and flat for 1109 01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,240 them. She's got her basket but we 1110 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:02,480 don't get to see them enjoying their lunch because the 1111 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:05,760 discussion of the baby has come up before they get to eat. 1112 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:11,000 We do get a beautiful aerial shot from up above somehow with 1113 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,240 all the red rocks around them and them sitting on the blanket. 1114 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,080 I don't recall if they were crisscross applesauce or not, 1115 01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:19,040 but they did give us an aerial shot. 1116 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,400 Yeah, and it is pretty. I love that part of the country. 1117 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:25,680 It is really pretty, yeah, and again, what dumb ass would wear 1118 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:28,920 clogs there? But whatever, she could have 1119 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:30,480 borrowed some of Robyn's sneakers. 1120 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:35,080 She did borrow Robyn her long ass skirt for the last episode, 1121 01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:37,320 you know. With the hydrangeas on it. 1122 01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:40,720 So she could have asked for some tennis shoes from Robyn, but 1123 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:43,160 whatever. When they start into the deep 1124 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:47,192 discussion about their potential futures, Meri asks Kody what 1125 01:03:47,192 --> 01:03:49,800 he thinks about this potential baby decision. 1126 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:55,440 She says she hopes he has an open disposition, which is a big 1127 01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:57,640 word for her. I thought that was pretty great. 1128 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:03,007 And then Kody has to reply, and, well, that's where things take 1129 01:04:03,007 --> 01:04:06,200 a turn for even worse than the clogs on the side of the 1130 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:11,880 mountain. Kody has a really weird thought 1131 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:15,626 process on this and it's hard to follow because essentially 1132 01:04:15,626 --> 01:04:22,167 what he's trying to do is put the blame back on nature and 1133 01:04:22,167 --> 01:04:26,176 God. He's kind of half assing saying 1134 01:04:26,176 --> 01:04:31,282 what he means here. He says that because nature or 1135 01:04:31,290 --> 01:04:35,660 God have not blessed us with this and because we're not 1136 01:04:35,668 --> 01:04:40,843 feeling in our gut that we should do it, He hams and haws 1137 01:04:40,851 --> 01:04:45,640 and he says I will always be involved in this child's life. 1138 01:04:45,648 --> 01:04:50,735 But I feel like because you have to carry it because it's your 1139 01:04:50,743 --> 01:04:55,247 body, the responsibility of the choice lies more on your 1140 01:04:55,255 --> 01:04:58,892 shoulders. And he's like, I'm not trying to 1141 01:04:58,892 --> 01:05:02,600 push it on you, but because you're going to have to carry 1142 01:05:02,608 --> 01:05:05,280 the baby for nine months, dot dot, dot. 1143 01:05:05,288 --> 01:05:08,410 Like we get where he's going with this. 1144 01:05:08,418 --> 01:05:13,066 He's kind of blaming the fact that nature hasn't taken over or 1145 01:05:13,066 --> 01:05:16,424 God, and she's going to have to carry it. 1146 01:05:16,432 --> 01:05:20,252 He's like passing the buck. They're passing it back and 1147 01:05:20,260 --> 01:05:22,468 forth here. This whole conversation does 1148 01:05:22,476 --> 01:05:26,387 come across to me as a not willing to just say what you 1149 01:05:26,395 --> 01:05:28,794 want to say. You know, it's, it reads to me 1150 01:05:28,802 --> 01:05:31,744 from the very beginning that he doesn't want to do this. 1151 01:05:31,752 --> 01:05:35,320 But instead of just coming out and saying it, he's doing this 1152 01:05:35,328 --> 01:05:37,562 back and forth. God and nature. 1153 01:05:37,570 --> 01:05:41,079 And you have to carry it. And it's a little nonsensical. 1154 01:05:41,087 --> 01:05:45,151 He stops a few times and then starts in another direction. 1155 01:05:45,159 --> 01:05:49,335 And he says, it's not my gut burning. 1156 01:05:49,343 --> 01:05:52,270 It's telling me that I have to do this. 1157 01:05:52,278 --> 01:05:56,986 It's just not in my gut. And then Meri kind of says 1158 01:05:56,994 --> 01:05:59,280 again, well, do you want to or not? 1159 01:05:59,288 --> 01:06:03,822 Like she's trying to get him just to be clear with his 1160 01:06:03,830 --> 01:06:07,064 answer, and he's not giving it to her yet. 1161 01:06:07,072 --> 01:06:12,710 And then he says, I would do it if nature or if God or if it 1162 01:06:12,718 --> 01:06:14,869 just happened, like, yeah, no problem. 1163 01:06:14,877 --> 01:06:19,269 Because of the stakes and the fact that it's not burning up in 1164 01:06:19,269 --> 01:06:23,045 my gut to do it. You know what I'm saying? 1165 01:06:23,053 --> 01:06:26,040 I just say no. Right. 1166 01:06:26,048 --> 01:06:29,260 What? In between these sentences, he's 1167 01:06:29,260 --> 01:06:33,555 avoiding looking Meri in the eyes as if her eyes have the 1168 01:06:33,563 --> 01:06:36,202 plague. I was very attuned to his 1169 01:06:36,210 --> 01:06:39,435 nonverbals in this, and he was looking everywhere but at her. 1170 01:06:39,443 --> 01:06:42,415 And then when he would take a breath between his sentences, he 1171 01:06:42,415 --> 01:06:43,920 would make eye contact with her. 1172 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:46,400 And then when going back to saying things, he would look 1173 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:47,960 away. He didn't actually want to look 1174 01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:51,847 at her while he was saying these unclear things that are 1175 01:06:51,847 --> 01:06:53,895 pointing to what we already know. 1176 01:06:53,903 --> 01:06:58,518 And at one point after he said I would do it if nature or God 1177 01:06:58,526 --> 01:07:02,495 just did it, he literally clears his throat as if he's struggling 1178 01:07:02,495 --> 01:07:06,072 to even say these words. He's having a hard time putting 1179 01:07:06,072 --> 01:07:09,428 the sentences together because he's trying to lead or mislead 1180 01:07:09,436 --> 01:07:12,180 or do whatever. Just not be direct and clear 1181 01:07:12,188 --> 01:07:14,000 with what he's actually thinking and feeling. 1182 01:07:14,008 --> 01:07:18,314 He keeps saying it's not burning me up in the gut, it's not 1183 01:07:18,322 --> 01:07:23,082 giving me that gut feeling and God in nature and I did write 1184 01:07:23,090 --> 01:07:26,188 down word for word there and he just keeps saying that. 1185 01:07:26,196 --> 01:07:29,440 And she is trying to get it out of him. 1186 01:07:29,448 --> 01:07:34,632 And because of the stakes, like, OK, we get it. 1187 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:42,052 OK, come out and say it. And then Meri throws us for a 1188 01:07:42,060 --> 01:07:48,583 bloop here and she says, well, if you want, I'm willing to do 1189 01:07:48,591 --> 01:07:52,080 some tests. If that's even an option and 1190 01:07:52,088 --> 01:07:54,136 Kody says what are you talking about? 1191 01:07:54,144 --> 01:07:59,860 What do you mean? We have plenty of information. 1192 01:07:59,868 --> 01:08:02,940 He is confused. Yeah. 1193 01:08:02,948 --> 01:08:04,410 I'm. Confused. 1194 01:08:04,418 --> 01:08:07,320 We're all confused. We've gone to the doctor. 1195 01:08:07,328 --> 01:08:09,160 I thought we'd done the research. 1196 01:08:09,168 --> 01:08:13,022 I thought we had done the tests. Meri, why are you saying just 1197 01:08:13,030 --> 01:08:15,650 now that you're willing to do the tests? 1198 01:08:15,658 --> 01:08:20,237 I think she's trying to put the blame on Kody here, and he's not 1199 01:08:20,237 --> 01:08:23,179 willing to take it. He's skirting the issue. 1200 01:08:23,187 --> 01:08:27,019 They're playing the hot potato game, passing this back and 1201 01:08:27,027 --> 01:08:30,580 forth, and neither one of them is just clearly coming out and 1202 01:08:30,587 --> 01:08:32,841 saying it. And now she's saying that she's 1203 01:08:32,841 --> 01:08:36,490 willing to do some tests again. I thought we were here to make 1204 01:08:36,497 --> 01:08:38,545 the decision. And they were lying before. 1205 01:08:38,553 --> 01:08:41,779 We knew they were lying before about the efforts that they had 1206 01:08:41,779 --> 01:08:45,631 made for her to get pregnant because of the obscure, 1207 01:08:45,639 --> 01:08:49,783 generalized way that they would talk about the things that they 1208 01:08:49,783 --> 01:08:51,788 did, you know, referencing fertility treatments. 1209 01:08:51,796 --> 01:08:55,720 And yet we're going, we've watched this for five years, and 1210 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,240 you haven't had a single scene where you're giving yourself a 1211 01:08:58,247 --> 01:09:00,600 shot or you're even doing anything having to do with it. 1212 01:09:00,608 --> 01:09:02,776 Remember when they went to that doctor's appointment and it 1213 01:09:02,783 --> 01:09:05,260 seemed like it was their first? It was their first. 1214 01:09:05,268 --> 01:09:07,246 It was a concentration. It wasn't even a real 1215 01:09:07,254 --> 01:09:08,720 appointment. She was asking them how much 1216 01:09:08,728 --> 01:09:11,441 they were fucking. Yeah, like she was trying to get 1217 01:09:11,441 --> 01:09:15,654 to the brass tacks of it all. How often are you guys doing the 1218 01:09:15,654 --> 01:09:19,081 deed and they didn't even want to come out and say that? 1219 01:09:19,089 --> 01:09:23,304 No, it was all a lie and a sham. What a shock with this family. 1220 01:09:23,312 --> 01:09:25,848 And Meri does reference something about egg retrieval 1221 01:09:25,856 --> 01:09:28,500 when Kody asks what she's even talking about. 1222 01:09:28,508 --> 01:09:30,796 And I didn't really follow that either. 1223 01:09:30,804 --> 01:09:34,564 I I felt like it was very broad and just, I don't even know. 1224 01:09:34,572 --> 01:09:37,460 He is baffled and he says I'm checking myself. 1225 01:09:37,468 --> 01:09:41,444 I'm checking myself to see if I'm copping out here. 1226 01:09:41,453 --> 01:09:45,466 Which, of course you are. Kody, that's exactly what you're 1227 01:09:45,466 --> 01:09:47,788 doing. Then he says that he thinks they 1228 01:09:47,788 --> 01:09:51,189 should just sit on a no for a little bit. 1229 01:09:51,198 --> 01:09:59,654 So you're saying no what? Sit on a no for a little bit and 1230 01:09:59,654 --> 01:10:01,880 then finally, finally Kody says. 1231 01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,760 Right now I'm thinking no and Meri goes. 1232 01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:13,120 After Kody talks about sitting on it for a while and that he's 1233 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:16,200 finally saying no, Meri starts speaking. 1234 01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:21,080 She says maybe let's and Kody interrupts and says right now 1235 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,320 I'm thinking no. And I thought it was very 1236 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:26,960 telling that immediately after he finally provides some clarity 1237 01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:31,000 that he's at a no, she starts doing the hot potato action. 1238 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:34,560 Well, maybe let's and he goes, right now I'm thinking, no, he 1239 01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:37,200 didn't even let her finish the sentence, which really 1240 01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:41,000 demonstrates to me that he does not want to be committal. 1241 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,160 He does not want to actually say no. 1242 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,160 And now he finally has, you know, he doesn't want to be 1243 01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:47,480 responsible for saying no. And now he finally has. 1244 01:10:47,480 --> 01:10:50,320 And so she's they're, they're just so fucked up. 1245 01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:53,440 This is what they do, Meri. Well, maybe blah, blah, blah. 1246 01:10:53,440 --> 01:10:57,160 And he's cut her off. No, we're not doing it and it 1247 01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:58,800 seems like a long term thing for them. 1248 01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:02,200 I imagine this is how so many of their decisions, discussions, 1249 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,640 arguments go. Neither one of them can be very 1250 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:07,600 clear. Once one of them decides to, the 1251 01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:10,680 other one pushes back. And then in this case, it's Meri 1252 01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:12,878 and Kody's Just no, it is done. 1253 01:11:12,886 --> 01:11:17,056 Leading up to this, I thought Meri was going to go into this 1254 01:11:17,064 --> 01:11:19,316 saying completely no. Yeah, me too. 1255 01:11:19,324 --> 01:11:23,412 I think in this very moment that Meri is changing her mind. 1256 01:11:23,420 --> 01:11:27,022 Again, Yes, I think so too. I think we're seeing in real 1257 01:11:27,030 --> 01:11:29,120 time because she goes after, he says. 1258 01:11:29,128 --> 01:11:32,504 Right now I'm thinking no, she goes like she's thinking. 1259 01:11:32,512 --> 01:11:39,188 She puts her hand on her face and then it cuts to an interview 1260 01:11:39,188 --> 01:11:43,980 moment with her. And she goes, I was shocked that 1261 01:11:43,980 --> 01:11:47,877 he said that. He and I are just in a different 1262 01:11:47,877 --> 01:11:50,320 place than he and all his other wives, you know? 1263 01:11:50,328 --> 01:11:54,254 And I've got to think of where that place is for me now. 1264 01:11:54,262 --> 01:12:00,150 And the way that she says he and all his other wives is telling 1265 01:12:00,158 --> 01:12:03,770 to me. And I think she's backtracking 1266 01:12:03,778 --> 01:12:07,552 because she's feeling insecure again and she's feeling 1267 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,504 displaced. It's just very bizarre because 1268 01:12:10,512 --> 01:12:14,660 this whole thing, it went into it with a completely different 1269 01:12:14,668 --> 01:12:18,964 feeling and I felt like she had made a decision that was no. 1270 01:12:18,972 --> 01:12:21,314 And then all of a sudden we're backtracking. 1271 01:12:21,322 --> 01:12:24,888 Then she's triggered into, is that the final thing? 1272 01:12:24,896 --> 01:12:28,824 Maybe, You know, I sense that that's what's happening when you 1273 01:12:28,824 --> 01:12:31,240 volunteer, like maybe no. And then someone confirms no, 1274 01:12:31,248 --> 01:12:32,343 but you haven't made your choice. 1275 01:12:32,351 --> 01:12:33,935 So then you're like, but, but, but maybe not. 1276 01:12:33,943 --> 01:12:37,896 You know, that does happen. And I just think with them, it's 1277 01:12:37,896 --> 01:12:40,372 such a constant. This just must always happen. 1278 01:12:40,380 --> 01:12:44,294 They are just never going to truly come to this decision 1279 01:12:44,302 --> 01:12:46,856 together. At the same time, it's like 1280 01:12:46,864 --> 01:12:50,715 wrong place, wrong time constantly with them, with this. 1281 01:12:50,715 --> 01:12:54,120 And we rewound this part of the 1282 01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:57,920 episode so many times because it was so confusing. 1283 01:12:57,920 --> 01:12:59,600 The quotes were all over the place. 1284 01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:04,760 There were a lot of dot dot dot moments, a lot of the same 1285 01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:07,760 things being kind of repeated in different ways. 1286 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:11,680 It was a bizarre conversation. Yeah, it totally was. 1287 01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:15,600 After Meri's voice over interview moment, Kody says 1288 01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:20,840 let's sit on it as the no. If it's a no, are you waking up 1289 01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:23,160 at night crying over not having a baby? 1290 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,120 Let's sit on that. Let's sit on the no. 1291 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:31,800 There's these silences, these moments between these things 1292 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:33,800 that you were, you know, you were as you were talking about, 1293 01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:38,120 just kind of this uncommittal, undecided, but leaning No, he's 1294 01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:39,200 no. So I guess we're not. 1295 01:13:41,440 --> 01:13:44,840 And after he does this final, let's sit on the no. 1296 01:13:45,480 --> 01:13:50,720 They embrace and hug. Well, there's this sad piano 1297 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:54,120 music playing. They kiss and hug like they've 1298 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:55,520 made a decision. Right. 1299 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,720 And it's so weird. It's my take away was that I 1300 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:02,680 guess they landed at no. Well then, Meri says. 1301 01:14:03,440 --> 01:14:07,240 Now that we've made this decision, we have to let Leon 1302 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:08,600 know. Of course. 1303 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:10,790 I'm like, bitch, what decision? 1304 01:14:10,798 --> 01:14:14,320 No, I guess. Kody said no more times than he 1305 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,413 said yes. Or maybe so I guess it's a no. 1306 01:14:16,421 --> 01:14:19,514 And now we're going to be able to blame Kody is what it's going 1307 01:14:19,514 --> 01:14:21,600 to come down to. Oh God. 1308 01:14:21,608 --> 01:14:25,619 Right. Well, I just so badly wish that 1309 01:14:25,619 --> 01:14:29,780 I could interject, push pause on these guys, stand next to 1310 01:14:29,780 --> 01:14:33,220 them and be like Meri. What Kody is saying that is that 1311 01:14:33,220 --> 01:14:36,680 it hasn't happened naturally. And no, he does not want to 1312 01:14:36,688 --> 01:14:38,344 intervene scientifically in your womb. 1313 01:14:38,352 --> 01:14:40,412 The answer is no. Right. 1314 01:14:40,420 --> 01:14:44,704 Can we just clearly say this hasn't happened naturally for 1315 01:14:44,712 --> 01:14:47,590 us? And so I really am leaning 1316 01:14:47,598 --> 01:14:50,965 towards no. And I think that we need to call 1317 01:14:50,965 --> 01:14:53,543 it. It's a no no for me dog. 1318 01:14:53,551 --> 01:14:56,212 Well, right. And I think the reason that it's 1319 01:14:56,212 --> 01:14:58,660 a no is because Kody doesn't love Meri. 1320 01:14:58,668 --> 01:15:03,605 Kody's not in love with Meri. It's obvious to me in this 1321 01:15:03,613 --> 01:15:06,271 scene, and maybe it's not obvious to other people. 1322 01:15:06,279 --> 01:15:08,510 Maybe I'm jumping to too much of a conclusion. 1323 01:15:08,518 --> 01:15:12,819 I think that when Kody can't make eye contact with her, it's 1324 01:15:12,819 --> 01:15:15,770 because he is no longer in love with her. 1325 01:15:15,778 --> 01:15:20,015 I think he almost resents her. I think he's definitely not 1326 01:15:20,023 --> 01:15:22,000 interested in reproducing with her. 1327 01:15:22,008 --> 01:15:27,280 And another tie in to keep them together like a child being 1328 01:15:27,288 --> 01:15:29,336 born. That's at least another 18 years 1329 01:15:29,336 --> 01:15:33,280 that this is happening. And he is going to, from here on 1330 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:36,856 out, play this dance of, well, you need to be committed to me. 1331 01:15:36,856 --> 01:15:38,880 And I do not have the same thing 1332 01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:40,960 with you. And Meri does talk about that a 1333 01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:44,120 bit moving forward here, about where is her place, What is the 1334 01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,880 thing? And he loves that she's in that 1335 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:50,280 fucking position. He does not want to be committed 1336 01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,720 to her in any way other than this religious dogmatic 1337 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:57,720 obligation that they have and that she brings in a paycheck. 1338 01:15:57,920 --> 01:16:01,120 I'm convinced of it. I know that I might sound like a 1339 01:16:01,120 --> 01:16:03,600 conspiracy theorist in a nut job, and maybe even in our 1340 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:07,040 previous episodes. I haven't hounded on it enough. 1341 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,000 He's not in love with her. I don't think he's in love with 1342 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:11,280 her. I think he fell out of love with 1343 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:13,840 her a while ago. I would also add that there's a 1344 01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:17,840 financial aspect here that if you get science involved and if 1345 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:21,680 you do the in vitro route, we know that they're not on any 1346 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:25,360 sort of insurance through somebody's employer, right? 1347 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:29,640 I guess we don't know that, but they're probably paying out the 1348 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:33,560 ass for insurance and he is thinking this would all be out 1349 01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:36,040 of pocket. This doesn't financially make 1350 01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,680 sense. And to top it off, I have 1351 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:41,320 someone else with a perfectly good womb. 1352 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,560 Why would I be doing this with you and spending all this money? 1353 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,200 I can go and have another baby with Robyn. 1354 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,280 This is part of the whole preview that we've been seeing 1355 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:54,040 of him falling out of love, quote, UN quote with all of his 1356 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:56,000 other wives because he's got Robyn. 1357 01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:59,560 And maybe with the other ones, we haven't seen it so abruptly 1358 01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:01,640 or it hasn't made such an impact to me. 1359 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,480 But to me, this is a big one going, yeah, he doesn't love 1360 01:17:06,480 --> 01:17:08,440 you. I don't think he was talking to 1361 01:17:08,440 --> 01:17:10,000 her as if he was in love with her. 1362 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:12,640 This conversation was not married people in love. 1363 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,920 And we've joked about Meri having her conversations with 1364 01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,080 other people. I think ultimately she's OK with 1365 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,960 this decision, but I think she needs to play the card of not 1366 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:27,840 being OK with it. 100%, yeah. She can put the blame elsewhere 1367 01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:30,240 now. He finally came out and said it. 1368 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:33,160 She doesn't have to be the bad guy when it comes to Leon. 1369 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:35,800 She doesn't have to be the bad guy when it comes to other 1370 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:38,320 wives. We're going to find out real 1371 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:42,680 quickly here that she's already blaming him, Meri. 1372 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:46,280 In a recent episode where you asked, oh, is this teeing up so 1373 01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:48,400 that we can have another disappointment for Leon? 1374 01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:52,240 Well, here we go girl. You called it and here it is. 1375 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:57,040 Yeah, Meri says that Kody's reasons make complete sense. 1376 01:17:57,280 --> 01:18:01,720 It just makes me kind of sad, like, you know, all right, it's 1377 01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:04,960 done. Yeah. 1378 01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:08,280 I think we all knew. And you knew it was done long 1379 01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:12,480 before hiking your clogged ass up to the top of these red 1380 01:18:12,480 --> 01:18:14,520 rocks. OK. 1381 01:18:15,440 --> 01:18:19,360 We didn't need to see hoof it up there to get this decision. 1382 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:22,720 Maybe if she would have shown a little, you know, collarbone or 1383 01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:24,840 a little wrist action she could have. 1384 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:26,480 Ankle on top of them Claws this is. 1385 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,400 It she could have reminded him of what he used to have. 1386 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:33,320 Imagine seeing her from behind in these clogs. 1387 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:37,240 Like just hoofing it up there vertically. 1388 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:38,840 Oh, mayor. Oh. 1389 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,320 Poor thing. She also says that I'm hoping 1390 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:46,160 this is time to recreate our relationship and figure out who 1391 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:48,960 we are now. So she's using the talking 1392 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:51,920 points of what the next steps are and she's wrestling with the 1393 01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:53,960 empty nest stuff and all of these things. 1394 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:57,400 It's almost like she's got a matrix of decisions and what 1395 01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:02,400 they mean, and she's trying to play the I'm not just making any 1396 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,160 decisions on any of them. I'm a victim. 1397 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:07,480 No matter what happens. I'm trying to figure it all out. 1398 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:10,560 Meanwhile, I don't know that she's so indecisive. 1399 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:13,440 I think she just likes playing that role in this situation. 1400 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,680 Because now she gets to play the victim. 1401 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:19,360 Yeah, and now she gets to play the blame game when it comes to 1402 01:19:19,480 --> 01:19:23,120 Leon's disappointment. And as you said, talking to the 1403 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:25,200 other wives. And so now we get to have that 1404 01:19:25,200 --> 01:19:28,960 conversation, the first one we get to see with our dear love 1405 01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:33,400 Robyn, her good friend Robyn, her closest sister, wife Robyn. 1406 01:19:33,480 --> 01:19:37,874 Yeah, we go to Robyn's house and Robyn is walking over to 1407 01:19:37,874 --> 01:19:40,770 Meri's. Strolling across the street. 1408 01:19:40,778 --> 01:19:44,840 Going to have a conversation. Meri called her up and wanted to 1409 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:46,812 talk. Yep, I wrote this down. 1410 01:19:46,820 --> 01:19:50,072 Going to walk over there and have a little talk. 1411 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:53,382 I just don't even get it. I'm like going to walk over 1412 01:19:53,390 --> 01:19:55,984 there and have a little talk. Why was this necessary? 1413 01:19:55,992 --> 01:19:59,404 Why is this in there? Why do they keep these lines in 1414 01:19:59,404 --> 01:20:02,518 from these people? I guess it's because, like you 1415 01:20:02,526 --> 01:20:05,080 said, maybe she never has anything good to say ever. 1416 01:20:05,088 --> 01:20:06,930 And so they're probably prompting her. 1417 01:20:06,938 --> 01:20:08,915 Robyn, what are you doing right now? 1418 01:20:08,923 --> 01:20:12,894 And she says, going to walk over there and have a little talk. 1419 01:20:12,902 --> 01:20:15,956 What the fuck? Oh my God. 1420 01:20:15,964 --> 01:20:20,280 We have to get the flashback to the offer of surrogacy though. 1421 01:20:20,288 --> 01:20:27,320 Oh God, we have to get the sepia flashback to Robyn laying in her 1422 01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:32,608 maternity bed all puffy faced after giving birth to baby Saul. 1423 01:20:32,608 --> 01:20:35,040 And oh, I have to catch you, 1424 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:39,600 Meri, while you're all emotional and I'm all emotional and I'm 1425 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:43,280 going to offer my. Womb, we can take a part of you 1426 01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:48,120 and a part of Kody and put it inside of me and God can make it 1427 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:52,160 grow into a beautiful baby. OK, she didn't say that, but she 1428 01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:55,760 did say a part of Kody and a part of Meri together something, 1429 01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:58,080 and it was disturbing, very disturbing. 1430 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:02,087 Oh, Meri feels that she owes it to Robyn to have this 1431 01:21:02,087 --> 01:21:04,400 discussion with her. Because they have such a close 1432 01:21:04,440 --> 01:21:06,640 relationship. Yes, she says. 1433 01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:10,000 I figured I should tell you about our conversation. 1434 01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:15,080 So Kody and I have talked and we've mutually decided to not go 1435 01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:18,880 forward with it. Before she tells Robyn that in 1436 01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:22,160 her voice over moment, she says it would have been kind of cool 1437 01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:26,040 to raise kids together and I once again would have been kind 1438 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,040 of cool. Bitch, what are you doing? 1439 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:31,440 Oh my God, it's like she's 17 or that. 1440 01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:34,360 No, no, no, she's 14. Pregnancy Pack. 1441 01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:37,560 It would be kind of cool if we raise children together. 1442 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:40,040 Oh my God. Which we've talked about before. 1443 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,840 Like, aren't you? Isn't that what you're doing? 1444 01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:45,840 Isn't that what you and all the other wives are doing with all 1445 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:49,000 of your 17 children? Raising them together? 1446 01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:51,320 It's hard with that ungrateful Brett Leon. 1447 01:21:53,240 --> 01:21:57,440 But then Meri kind of goes backwards in what she literally 1448 01:21:57,440 --> 01:22:03,086 just said, and she says she went up there, oh, on this hike 1449 01:22:03,086 --> 01:22:09,440 with intentions of starting proceedings, but Kody basically 1450 01:22:09,440 --> 01:22:12,280 said no. Robyn goes to through the 1451 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:16,120 conversation you are feeling and Meri cuts her off. 1452 01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:19,360 He said no. And then there's a Dun Dun. 1453 01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:21,920 And there's multiple interruptions in these 1454 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,280 conversations, which I think are so interesting because they 1455 01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:27,040 don't allow each other to actually finish their thoughts 1456 01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:30,800 so they can imply what a conclusion could be or usher 1457 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:32,920 them to a decision. And it's just bizarre. 1458 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:37,760 Robyn, he said no. It's like we're watching a bad 1459 01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:42,600 sitcom that was written with nobody in the know and we're 1460 01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:47,400 just the omniscient character watching this play out and no 1461 01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:51,200 one's on the same page ever. Absolutely, Absolutely. 1462 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:54,880 What is happening? Is this real life? 1463 01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:58,600 It's supposed to be reality TV, apparently. 1464 01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:02,480 I do really think that this is their reality, that they 1465 01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:07,680 communicate that little oh God that now Meri is going and 1466 01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:11,120 saying, well, I went up there and I was going to say yes and 1467 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:16,320 now Kody. He said no, as if you don't know 1468 01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:18,040 what Kody was going to say. Robyn. 1469 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:19,880 Oh. Robyn had no idea what Kody was 1470 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:21,840 going to say. Oh, I believe that. 1471 01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:25,480 Please. So after Robyn interrupts by 1472 01:23:25,480 --> 01:23:29,480 asking if he said no and Meri says yes, Robyn asks if she 1473 01:23:29,480 --> 01:23:31,598 thinks this is the right answer. 1474 01:23:31,606 --> 01:23:34,808 And because you know, these people are just, they have such 1475 01:23:34,808 --> 01:23:38,004 a way with words. Meri says I don't know, it just 1476 01:23:38,004 --> 01:23:42,500 is what it is right now. So once again, no real 1477 01:23:42,508 --> 01:23:45,027 direction, no confirmation or affirmation. 1478 01:23:45,035 --> 01:23:50,328 It just is what it is right now. And this is where we get another 1479 01:23:50,328 --> 01:23:54,384 voice over for Meri. Meri says that if it wasn't just 1480 01:23:54,384 --> 01:23:58,866 her and if it was her and Kody being empty nesters together it 1481 01:23:58,866 --> 01:24:02,828 would be different, but she is the empty nester alone. 1482 01:24:02,836 --> 01:24:07,200 And then we go back to Robyn and Robyn says. 1483 01:24:07,208 --> 01:24:12,080 I feel like I dragged something up when I offered. 1484 01:24:12,088 --> 01:24:16,650 I feel like you guys had kind of let it go. 1485 01:24:16,658 --> 01:24:22,052 I'm sorry if I did. And I didn't know if this was 1486 01:24:22,060 --> 01:24:24,408 authentic or not. What was your take? 1487 01:24:24,416 --> 01:24:27,670 Because I was, I, I never really believed Robyn. 1488 01:24:27,678 --> 01:24:30,730 But then when she was talking, I'm going, does she really feel 1489 01:24:30,730 --> 01:24:33,300 bad about bringing this up? Because a normal person would 1490 01:24:33,308 --> 01:24:35,608 feel bad if they genuinely thought, oh, I thought you guys 1491 01:24:35,608 --> 01:24:37,156 put this to bed. I thought it was to rest. 1492 01:24:37,164 --> 01:24:39,455 And now I brought it up and you've been going back and forth 1493 01:24:39,455 --> 01:24:41,040 and now you're obviously in pain. 1494 01:24:41,048 --> 01:24:43,992 You're hurt, you know. What did you think? 1495 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:47,440 Yeah, I think it's so disingenuous because Robyn keeps 1496 01:24:47,440 --> 01:24:50,940 doing this facial expression where she's, like, pulling back 1497 01:24:50,940 --> 01:24:52,880 and kind of like, grimacing. Yeah. 1498 01:24:52,888 --> 01:24:56,030 Like she can't handle Meri's emotion because Meri is crying 1499 01:24:56,038 --> 01:24:57,300 at this point. Yeah. 1500 01:24:57,308 --> 01:24:59,796 Yeah. And you know, we all know how 1501 01:24:59,804 --> 01:25:02,620 pretty of a crier Meri is. And. 1502 01:25:02,628 --> 01:25:04,372 Just like me. Right. 1503 01:25:04,380 --> 01:25:07,496 We can just tell that Robyn's uncomfortable and she's like, 1504 01:25:07,504 --> 01:25:10,104 oh, I feel like I drug something up. 1505 01:25:10,112 --> 01:25:14,174 Oh, I'm so sorry. OK, OK. 1506 01:25:14,182 --> 01:25:18,912 She's cringing backwards and making this grimace face as if 1507 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:21,776 she's uncomfortable with the emotion and Meri's crying. 1508 01:25:21,784 --> 01:25:26,862 And she says a part of me thinks that it would have been really 1509 01:25:26,870 --> 01:25:31,739 cool, but like talking about how it would have been cool to raise 1510 01:25:31,739 --> 01:25:33,320 kids together again, Meri goes. 1511 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:35,960 But you know, I just don't ever do what everyone else does. 1512 01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:39,400 And I don't do the cool thing just to do the cool thing. 1513 01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:43,680 Because in their family, the cool thing is to push out as 1514 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:45,400 many babies as you can, you know? 1515 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:50,200 They talk about praying here and Robyn asks her if she's preyed 1516 01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:54,720 on it, if she's prayed to feel something at all, and Meri says 1517 01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,240 I've prayed to feel something and I just don't. 1518 01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:01,240 Meri also talks about how she didn't want to have another baby 1519 01:26:01,240 --> 01:26:04,400 just to replace Leon. You know, another supporting 1520 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,760 bullet point of trying to avoid the empty nest whatnot. 1521 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:11,240 And before Robyn had apologized to bringing up the surrogacy, 1522 01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:15,240 she even references how with the Kody not being an empty nester 1523 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:20,160 and she is, that he's raising kids with his other wives. 1524 01:26:20,160 --> 01:26:24,280 So another call in to how Kody has babies and children with his 1525 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:28,080 other wives and she doesn't and she's doing this empty nest 1526 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:30,920 thing and he isn't. And so it's a divide for them. 1527 01:26:31,440 --> 01:26:33,480 But it doesn't have to be that way. 1528 01:26:33,480 --> 01:26:37,320 And it bothers me because now you've got all these freaking 1529 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:41,080 rooms that you had to have. You could have those kids over. 1530 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:43,160 You could have sleepovers at your house. 1531 01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:46,480 Leon could be away at college. And you can say to the little 1532 01:26:46,480 --> 01:26:48,920 girls, let's have a little girl sleepover. 1533 01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:50,760 Let's have a popcorn movie night. 1534 01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:53,400 She's got that loft and that video game console up there. 1535 01:26:53,440 --> 01:26:55,120 They were already up there at one point. 1536 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:57,000 Have it a weekly thing, have it every other day. 1537 01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:00,440 Do it as much as you want. You're not going to have to be 1538 01:27:00,440 --> 01:27:03,360 an empty nester, and that's the whole point of being a sister 1539 01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:05,160 wife, isn't it? Thought so. 1540 01:27:05,480 --> 01:27:07,640 Well, one of, you know, yes. Raising the kids. 1541 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:09,880 And then when you're an empty nester, you have a companion 1542 01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:11,000 that's not your husband. Yeah. 1543 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:15,480 Kody's mom, stepmom, his dad's sister, wives, whatever. 1544 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,840 Refer to how they are good friends now that they had their 1545 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:22,400 problems and challenges with Kody's dad and starting a 1546 01:27:22,440 --> 01:27:24,400 polygamous family. And then there was the 1547 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:26,720 children's stuff. And then when all that changes, 1548 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:29,760 they all of a sudden have these dynamics that are close 1549 01:27:29,760 --> 01:27:32,880 friendships. So working on your relationships 1550 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:35,560 with the other sister wives and embracing their children and 1551 01:27:35,560 --> 01:27:38,640 treating them as your own are the big things we thought. 1552 01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:42,000 I thought that you were all going to live as Golden Girls 1553 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,560 when this was said and done, you know? 1554 01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:45,560 Which ones? Meri. 1555 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:51,600 Meri's definitely the Dorothy. For sure, Oh my gosh. 1556 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:54,080 Sorry to say it, Dorothy. Sorry Dorothy, I love Dorothy. 1557 01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:56,840 And so it's like, oh God, sorry honey, but it's. 1558 01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:58,080 True. Oh gosh. 1559 01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:00,000 Robyn's the Blanche. Oh. 1560 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:02,600 God, the little hussy. Of course. 1561 01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:06,240 But Robyn could also be the no roses to like, well, natured. 1562 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:08,360 She's just a little dingy. She's Christine. 1563 01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:12,240 Christine for sure. Yes, and I guess that means 1564 01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:15,560 Janelle is. Of course. 1565 01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:19,680 Oh yeah, totally, totally. Wise know it all right, Wise 1566 01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:21,960 cracking behind the backs, you know. 1567 01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:25,520 The cackle, the head throwback with the laugh that's very, very 1568 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:27,120 Sophia Go. Sicily. 1569 01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:33,200 Yes, yes, picture it. Picture it. 2013 Red Rock 1570 01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:37,160 Canyon. So silly. 1571 01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:41,320 I'm loving it, goodness. But as Meri, you know, continues 1572 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:45,640 to share her feelings, Robyn tries to reassure her. 1573 01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:47,600 But I, I just got a bunch of gobbledygook. 1574 01:28:47,640 --> 01:28:50,160 I was like, Oh my God, Robyn, you just keep talking and it's a 1575 01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:51,760 bunch of nothing. I don't know. 1576 01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:54,480 Did any of it mean? Did any of it mean anything 1577 01:28:54,480 --> 01:28:58,320 beyond her apologizing for the offering of surrogacy? 1578 01:28:58,520 --> 01:29:02,240 No, she doesn't even rub her back or anything like she's done 1579 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:04,760 before, Right? They're very distant. 1580 01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:07,600 Meri's even sitting in a chair, I believe, and Robyn's sitting 1581 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:09,280 on a couch. And yeah. 1582 01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:14,880 There is no sense of their friendship here. 1583 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:17,720 I agree. It's a weird interaction and 1584 01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:20,080 Robyn's literally cringing through it. 1585 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,560 Faux reassuring her and it's ridiculous. 1586 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:28,320 Meri says at one point I'm on a different level. 1587 01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:32,440 I don't want to have a child just to feel included. 1588 01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:36,720 Yeah, that's not a good reason to have a child. 1589 01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:42,080 Totally. And Meri wraps up that 1590 01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:45,640 conversation by saying, anyway, that's where I am right now. 1591 01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:46,840 OK. And. 1592 01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:48,960 It's so. I don't know. 1593 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:51,280 I'm from the Midwest. It sounds like the way my dad 1594 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:53,520 would end a conversation, let's say there's some sort of 1595 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,960 dispute, maybe I'm being reprimanded and I'm 1614, 1596 01:29:56,960 --> 01:29:59,160 whatever. Anyway, that's where I am right 1597 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:01,080 now. Just kind of like, that's the 1598 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,000 end, I guess. Like we're just done now and 1599 01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:04,360 that's that. OK. 1600 01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:07,000 Yeah. Wrapping up production was 1601 01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:09,600 tapping on the watch. Like, come on, you're not even 1602 01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:10,920 sitting by each other. We got to wrap it up. 1603 01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:14,320 Well it just makes it feel disingenuous that she was even 1604 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:20,880 crying because OK, to me saying and ending it that way just 1605 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:23,760 means that you already had come to this conclusion, so why are 1606 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:27,360 you lying now and saying that Kody is the one that did it and 1607 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:29,880 you had gone into it with a different mindset? 1608 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:32,680 It's just not adding up. It's just fishy. 1609 01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:35,080 She cannot pick Elaine. She cannot pick Elaine. 1610 01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:40,680 So after this lovely scene between two close sister wives 1611 01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:42,320 comes where where we we're going. 1612 01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:43,800 They're close and their sister wives like what? 1613 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,760 It comes to an end. And of course, we get to end the 1614 01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:51,240 episode with Kody. Well, actually there's Kody and 1615 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,360 then there's Meri. But Kody has to give us a 1616 01:30:53,360 --> 01:30:56,440 wonderful sound bite as we're ushered into the end of this 1617 01:30:56,440 --> 01:30:59,560 episode. Oh God, this one's, this one's 1618 01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:00,600 real. This one's real. 1619 01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:02,640 This one's a doozy. This one's a doozy, honey. 1620 01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:04,960 Why don't, why don't you get us started and I'll, I'll pick it 1621 01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:07,360 up when you when the man has to take over, OK? 1622 01:31:09,160 --> 01:31:15,240 Kody says the great thing about being human and for her, the 1623 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:21,560 great thing about being a woman is that she can change her mind 1624 01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:25,360 a million times. And I'm just going to say, hey, 1625 01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:27,240 I like it that way. Oh. 1626 01:31:27,280 --> 01:31:30,800 My God, it is so Shania Twain. Shania Twain, motherfucker. 1627 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,600 Shit, I did not even notice that. 1628 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:36,880 Of course, it stood out to me that he had to emphasize that 1629 01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:40,360 because she's a woman, that she could change her mind a million 1630 01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:43,640 times and that he was just going to have to say hey. 1631 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:45,200 I like it that. Way. 1632 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:50,120 I wonder if he really was inspired by Shania Twain with 1633 01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:53,320 that. Seriously, that's so crazy. 1634 01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:56,040 Seriously, I wrote. OK, Shania. 1635 01:31:56,040 --> 01:32:00,800 Oh my God that is straight up lyrics from a fucking pop song. 1636 01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:05,280 That is insane, Wow. He has a way with words. 1637 01:32:05,320 --> 01:32:07,200 He really? Does I didn't know he wrote that 1638 01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:10,760 song but. Shania should give him a little 1639 01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:13,000 nod. I just want to see Kody in that 1640 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:15,520 leopard print, you know that.

Literally have that costume. 1643 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:21,720 I was her for Halloween. One year, that's right, that's 1644 01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:23,920 right. It would definitely one up the 1645 01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:24,962 apron look from earlier in the. 1646 01:32:24,970 --> 01:32:27,878 Episode we're going to put you in that costume and that's going 1647 01:32:27,878 --> 01:32:30,880 to be a Patreon exclusive.

And this is where Meri helps us 1652 01:32:42,215 --> 01:32:44,240 wrap up this episode, this touching episode where 1653 01:32:44,248 --> 01:32:48,142 apparently we made a decision. She wonders what her value is to 1654 01:32:48,142 --> 01:32:52,438 the family now that she's not going to have another baby. 1655 01:32:52,446 --> 01:32:56,660 And I thought, Meri, it's called a paycheck. 1656 01:32:56,668 --> 01:33:00,800 Yeah, what value am I bringing to the family now? 1657 01:33:00,808 --> 01:33:05,600 Helping raise the other kids. What you would think? 1658 01:33:05,608 --> 01:33:09,440 Bringing in that bacon. Bringing in the bacon. 1659 01:33:09,448 --> 01:33:12,490 That's that's definitely #1 crafting, crafting, standing 1660 01:33:12,498 --> 01:33:18,298 over people while they're doing tasks and directing them member. 1661 01:33:18,298 --> 01:33:19,520 Unclogging sinks. 1662 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:22,680 If you want something done right, have Meri stand over you 1663 01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:24,480 and watch. That's what I always say. 1664 01:33:25,240 --> 01:33:27,680 You know, we need Meri, we need you here to supervise and 1665 01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,080 everybody knows that to move furniture, right? 1666 01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:33,520 She has so many reasons to be in this family and, and, and 1667 01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:36,840 justifiable reasons. Well, that's how that episode 1668 01:33:36,840 --> 01:33:39,280 ends. We get the Next up on. 1669 01:33:40,200 --> 01:33:43,760 The Next up on we rarely talk about the Next up on. 1670 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,800 So honey, I have a feeling you have something up your sleeve. 1671 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:48,648 We have to talk about this one. 1672 01:33:48,656 --> 01:33:53,344 We are going to get the panel on polygamy episode next, and we 1673 01:33:53,352 --> 01:33:58,252 hear a little bit about how Christine's aunt is going to be 1674 01:33:58,252 --> 01:34:01,300 there and how she's completely against polygamy. 1675 01:34:01,308 --> 01:34:08,170 But for current time's sake, I noticed that we have a little 1676 01:34:08,178 --> 01:34:13,456 person on that panel named Christine Marie, and she is the 1677 01:34:13,456 --> 01:34:18,348 woman behind the Netflix documentary Trust Me, the False 1678 01:34:18,348 --> 01:34:21,840 Prophet about Samuel Bateman that just came out. 1679 01:34:21,848 --> 01:34:23,407 That's right, which I enjoyed watching. 1680 01:34:23,415 --> 01:34:27,352 I thought it was good. It was good and I wanted to look 1681 01:34:27,352 --> 01:34:29,680 here at the timeline of things. 1682 01:34:29,920 --> 01:34:32,320 Trust me. The False Prophet was filmed 1683 01:34:32,320 --> 01:34:38,160 from 20/21 to 20/22. It was released this year, 2026. 1684 01:34:38,480 --> 01:34:44,760 This panel episode aired September 15th of 2013, so 1685 01:34:44,760 --> 01:34:50,120 almost 10 full years that Christine Marie has been working 1686 01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:53,160 behind the scenes. Right, doing all of the. 1687 01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:55,760 Doing all of this work. Yeah, at least that much time. 1688 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,840 At least, yeah. And we get a return of blonde 1689 01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:02,280 haired beauty with the extreme makeup and looks. 1690 01:35:03,200 --> 01:35:05,880 Our favorite makeup artist, Colleen. 1691 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:09,480 Colleen. Oh, an inspiration to all. 1692 01:35:09,680 --> 01:35:11,920 I'm looking forward to this episode because it's pretty 1693 01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:13,240 good. It's pretty good. 1694 01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:17,120 I've never seen it. I'm looking forward to it. 1695 01:35:17,160 --> 01:35:19,480 Oh yeah, Christine's reaction to her aunt girl. 1696 01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:21,320 Oh, I can't wait. Trust we're going to need a 1697 01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:22,960 drink for this. One cannot wait. 1698 01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:24,400 It's a whole thing. It's a whole. 1699 01:35:24,400 --> 01:35:25,880 Thing, yes. How exciting. 1700 01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:27,120 Well, we made it through this one. 1701 01:35:27,320 --> 01:35:29,760 We we find. Are we going to put Meri's baby 1702 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:32,120 decision to rest? Are we going to bury it in the 1703 01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:35,520 backyard with Drake? With the bag. 1704 01:35:35,720 --> 01:35:40,760 Oh yeah, and with the Igloo. Cooler, cooler, cooler, all the 1705 01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:43,720 things that get buried in this family's backyard along with 1706 01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:48,920 Meri's baby decision. Sorry Mayor, you know what time 1707 01:35:48,920 --> 01:35:52,800 it is, darling. Mustard seed and shit stain. 1708 01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:55,040 Which one do you want to start with? 1709 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:57,120 Are you feeling high or are you feeling low? 1710 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:02,080 I think that this time around I'm going to start with my shit 1711 01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:03,520 stain. Love it. 1712 01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:08,800 And it's going to go to Meri. OK. 1713 01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:13,853 It might be a little surprising, but I think that Meri went 1714 01:36:13,853 --> 01:36:20,420 into the baby decision with her mind, made-up one way and 1715 01:36:20,420 --> 01:36:24,590 flipped it to play the victim card. 1716 01:36:24,598 --> 01:36:30,656 Yeah, most likely to get out of being blamed by Leon. 1717 01:36:30,664 --> 01:36:34,262 Sure. And the rest of the family. 1718 01:36:34,270 --> 01:36:39,640 And the wishy washyness and the pretending I can't get behind 1719 01:36:39,648 --> 01:36:42,369 it. Yeah, we're six seasons in. 1720 01:36:42,377 --> 01:36:47,038 You cannot tell me that at this point you really, truly thought 1721 01:36:47,038 --> 01:36:52,318 you were going to sit your clogged ass down on the top of 1722 01:36:52,326 --> 01:36:58,740 those red rocks and say, let's start in vitro or let's start 1723 01:36:58,748 --> 01:37:03,560 the medical proceedings for my womb, bitch. 1724 01:37:03,568 --> 01:37:05,380 No. Yeah, Yeah. 1725 01:37:05,388 --> 01:37:09,820 You cannot convince me that that was what you were actually 1726 01:37:09,828 --> 01:37:12,334 thinking until he opened his fucking mouth. 1727 01:37:12,342 --> 01:37:13,420 Right. Agreed. 1728 01:37:13,428 --> 01:37:15,220 Agreed. And apparently they'd already 1729 01:37:15,228 --> 01:37:18,600 gone through those processes. So at best she's a liar. 1730 01:37:18,608 --> 01:37:21,100 And that's at best. It's just going to be simple 1731 01:37:21,108 --> 01:37:23,624 cleaning cut for me this time around and that's that. 1732 01:37:23,632 --> 01:37:27,045 I can't with this back and forth with them anymore. 1733 01:37:27,053 --> 01:37:29,150 We're fucking done with it. Please. 1734 01:37:29,158 --> 01:37:33,254 Yes, I heard a round of applause out in the distance. 1735 01:37:33,262 --> 01:37:36,424 Everyone agrees. Yeah, my shit stain goes to her 1736 01:37:36,424 --> 01:37:40,104 loving husband Kody Brown. And pretty cut and dry for me 1737 01:37:40,112 --> 01:37:45,104 this episode as well. The necklaces idea, Trash fresh, 1738 01:37:45,104 --> 01:37:48,515 absolutely horrible. Thank God Mike and Mindy or 1739 01:37:48,523 --> 01:37:52,332 whoever the hell their names were, Melissa and Matthew, 1740 01:37:52,340 --> 01:37:55,920 whatever Something Enterprises people were there because they 1741 01:37:55,928 --> 01:37:58,940 helped him at least navigate that a little bit. 1742 01:37:58,948 --> 01:38:01,550 Unfortunately, they also did bring them to a family friendly 1743 01:38:01,550 --> 01:38:04,355 casino to sell their wholesale jewelry in one store as an 1744 01:38:04,363 --> 01:38:05,641 exclusive. I don't know. 1745 01:38:05,649 --> 01:38:09,160 I don't know, but Kody's buying it all and Kody sucks. 1746 01:38:09,168 --> 01:38:12,584 So the necklaces are terrible. But obviously the conversation 1747 01:38:12,592 --> 01:38:16,481 with Meri with the baby decision to not be able to look your 1748 01:38:16,489 --> 01:38:21,120 spouse in the eye and have an honest conversation about how 1749 01:38:21,128 --> 01:38:25,280 you're feeling about reproducing and bringing another life into 1750 01:38:25,288 --> 01:38:30,043 the world is pretty scummy. And I think, as I said earlier, 1751 01:38:30,043 --> 01:38:33,192 I think he's not even in love with her anymore. 1752 01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:35,440 I think he doesn't know what to do with her. 1753 01:38:35,448 --> 01:38:39,068 I think he actually, the vibe, to me feels like he's almost 1754 01:38:39,076 --> 01:38:42,470 irritated with her. And so he was just playing along 1755 01:38:42,470 --> 01:38:44,810 because this was probably a storyline brought up by 1756 01:38:44,818 --> 01:38:46,400 producers that needed to be dragged out. 1757 01:38:46,408 --> 01:38:51,202 And now it's coming to an end and he finally had to say no. 1758 01:38:51,210 --> 01:38:56,983 And it was the weirdest no to get to because he can't be 1759 01:38:56,991 --> 01:38:59,400 decisive. He doesn't want to disappoint 1760 01:38:59,408 --> 01:39:01,960 her on camera. I don't know if they were off 1761 01:39:01,968 --> 01:39:02,900 camera if it would have been different. 1762 01:39:02,908 --> 01:39:05,225 If they were off camera, none of this would even be happening. 1763 01:39:05,233 --> 01:39:06,810 So I don't know why I'm even posing that. 1764 01:39:06,818 --> 01:39:11,398 Kody, you are a shit stain. Yeah, why couldn't he even 1765 01:39:11,406 --> 01:39:17,092 clearly just say what he was alluding to and just say, well, 1766 01:39:17,092 --> 01:39:21,822 it did not happen naturally? God is obviously not on our side 1767 01:39:21,822 --> 01:39:25,807 with this, and I wish that it had happened naturally, but it 1768 01:39:25,815 --> 01:39:28,516 hasn't. So no, I don't want to get 1769 01:39:28,524 --> 01:39:31,800 science involved, right? If that is truly your religious 1770 01:39:31,800 --> 01:39:36,312 beliefs, why not just come out and say that and just say no and 1771 01:39:36,312 --> 01:39:39,676 just use that as your excuse? Yeah, because he doesn't want to 1772 01:39:39,676 --> 01:39:42,176 have a baby with No, he doesn't love her. 1773 01:39:42,184 --> 01:39:43,600 God, it's so. Messy. 1774 01:39:43,608 --> 01:39:46,880 I know, I know. And the signs are becoming more 1775 01:39:46,880 --> 01:39:49,063 and more clear. The Reds are more red, the green 1776 01:39:49,063 --> 01:39:52,235 is more green, and in Meri and Kody's case, the yellow is very 1777 01:39:52,235 --> 01:39:54,889 yellow.

She really did. 1792 01:40:40,080 --> 01:40:43,880 She kind of failed her husband Mike tried to save it a couple 1793 01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:47,040 of times. She also tried to stand up for 1794 01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:52,720 the family in a weird way like hey this is Vegas we should get 1795 01:40:52,720 --> 01:40:59,720 behind weirdos like us vibes. And she does seem like she has 1796 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:03,360 good intentions with trying to help the family with their 1797 01:41:03,640 --> 01:41:06,880 jewelry endeavor and I'm just going to give it to her. 1798 01:41:06,880 --> 01:41:10,320 They tried to tear up a few times to get some good quotes 1799 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:11,840 and this. Poor woman. 1800 01:41:11,880 --> 01:41:15,280 Yeah, it was totally weird too when she had an almost 1801 01:41:15,280 --> 01:41:18,400 aggressive nature in her response which wasn't fitting to 1802 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,760 what she was saying. Which is why they used it in a 1803 01:41:20,760 --> 01:41:22,600 coming up on footage to make us think. 1804 01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:24,840 They tried to trick. Us, she was going to talk shit 1805 01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:27,400 about them when really she was just speaking weirdly. 1806 01:41:28,120 --> 01:41:31,040 Yeah, I kind of just feel bad for her because you can tell 1807 01:41:31,040 --> 01:41:34,360 she's a nice person and it was bizarre. 1808 01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:37,135 They kind of did her dirty and I also feel like it was a case 1809 01:41:37,135 --> 01:41:39,840 of not on TV. Doesn't know what to do. 1810 01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:42,960 I know I kind of felt bad for her because you can tell that 1811 01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:44,880 she was trying. Yeah, she really was. 1812 01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:46,520 She's. Going to get my mustard seed. 1813 01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:50,320 I'll accept Gina for that one. Yeah, I really don't think and 1814 01:41:50,320 --> 01:41:54,600 even, you know, I just don't think anyone really stood out. 1815 01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:58,080 So I'm curious to see who gets your mustard seed here. 1816 01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:05,600 My mustard seed is going to go to Janelle because I felt bad 1817 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:08,840 for her when she volunteered that she's been dieting since 8 1818 01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:12,200 years old. That really hits in a weird 1819 01:42:12,200 --> 01:42:14,120 place. Yeah, it was weird. 1820 01:42:14,440 --> 01:42:18,720 And even if you don't have the same experience, I feel as 1821 01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:25,000 though it it reminded me of things that I've struggled with 1822 01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:26,440 since being a kid. Yeah. 1823 01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:29,320 And so I really identified with that. 1824 01:42:30,120 --> 01:42:36,240 I agree. And, and while some of her gym 1825 01:42:36,240 --> 01:42:39,379 and weight loss and whatnot, and this stuff with Sean is a 1826 01:42:39,379 --> 01:42:43,132 little awkward or strange at times, I appreciate that she's 1827 01:42:43,132 --> 01:42:46,160 really leaning into it. And although she's disappointed 1828 01:42:46,160 --> 01:42:48,880 in her plateau and struggles with the scale specifically, 1829 01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:51,480 she's still showing up. She's still doing the work. 1830 01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:54,744 And that sucks when you're on a weight loss journey, when 1831 01:42:54,744 --> 01:42:57,371 you're on any health journey where you hit the plateaus, 1832 01:42:57,371 --> 01:43:01,112 the highs feel great, the lows suck in the plateaus are not 1833 01:43:01,112 --> 01:43:03,624 great. So I feel for her, and I'm just 1834 01:43:03,624 --> 01:43:06,059 glad that she's continuing to show up and doing the work at 1835 01:43:06,067 --> 01:43:07,320 this point in the show, you know? 1836 01:43:07,328 --> 01:43:11,516 I do appreciate that she gave the nutritionist her compliments 1837 01:43:11,516 --> 01:43:15,052 about this statuesque queen as well. 1838 01:43:15,060 --> 01:43:21,000 Yeah, no, that was a genuine, honest reaction of like, wow, 1839 01:43:21,008 --> 01:43:23,832 this woman so pretty. I'm intimidated by her. 1840 01:43:23,840 --> 01:43:29,992 And it was very refreshing to see a real woman in in that clip 1841 01:43:29,992 --> 01:43:33,360 and her praising woman for being beautiful. 1842 01:43:33,368 --> 01:43:36,840 Yeah, an organic praise as well. Like it was genuine coming from 1843 01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:39,570 Janelle, Yeah. So I do feel like we're at a bit 1844 01:43:39,570 --> 01:43:41,716 of like a stalemate right now with Janelle. 1845 01:43:41,724 --> 01:43:45,520 This is kind of bringing it back to the scale thing. 1846 01:43:45,528 --> 01:43:48,715 And I, I want to see her pull forward. 1847 01:43:48,723 --> 01:43:51,524 I want to see more forward momentum from her. 1848 01:43:51,532 --> 01:43:56,080 And so I'm excited to see where this nutritionist takes her. 1849 01:43:56,088 --> 01:44:00,104 I really AM. It'll be interesting to see if 1850 01:44:00,112 --> 01:44:03,240 it doesn't take her anywhere, what the outcome might be, 1851 01:44:03,248 --> 01:44:05,094 because you know how the show is. 1852 01:44:05,102 --> 01:44:07,470 This is. True, it might just we might 1853 01:44:07,478 --> 01:44:09,184 never hear about it again. Like who knows? 1854 01:44:09,192 --> 01:44:11,080 But I don't want to burst your bubble. 1855 01:44:11,088 --> 01:44:14,704 Just saying, you know, Janelle, Janelle, you did get a mustard 1856 01:44:14,712 --> 01:44:18,714 seed from me this episode.
