We are literally watching paint dry with Robyn/Kody family time. Kody acts like there are no parks in Flagstaff. He literally wants to maintain an expensive private park just so his monogamous family can skip rocks, split logs, roast weenies, paint tables and play a rousing game of 'catch me if you can' with the prairie dog plague. One of my biggest unexpected laughs this season? Businessman Kody thinking t-shirts would cheapen the "My Sisterwives closet" brand. As if the jewelry itself wasn't do that singlehandedly.

I was a bit confused by the previews for next week. They called next week's episode the mid-season finale of SW? What the what? What does that even mean? Do they think they are The Walking Dead and doing mid-season breaks now?!? Am I misinterpreting that?

I do wonder if she had a lower face lift. I vividly remember the reunion post Tom's fraud exposure and she was a bit jowly. Surprisingly so to me. I do think she has decent skin, but yeah those makeup artists are indeed artists. They give her face structure and a very natural lit from within glow and finish that you wouldn't think came from products.

Kody operates on the mantra of 'yeah, but what have you done for me lately?' Or better yet, 'what have I been able to grift off you lately?' All this property stuff is a bit of a nothing burger to me. By law, according to the statute of frauds, anything involving the sale of real property must be in writing. So whatever share division is listed in the deed/sale documents are what they are entitled to. If Meri thought she should have gotten more than what she bargained, the time to bring that up was before signing on the dotted line. All this talk of deciding property division post sale, was always weird to me.

Am I the only hoping Meri choosing to have that conversation on the porch with Jen was a bit of a dig at Robyn? Too much to hope for? I am taking it anyway. LOL! The financial disclosures always fascinate me so I loved all the tea spilled this episode. That might have explained why Robyn and Kody kept Meri around so long. She contributed to the pot to her detriment and their gain and all she got was that ugly ass parting gift (dream book?). College came out of the pot except for Leon's? Let us also not forget that 2-3 of the boys did the whole military thing and a portion if not all may have been paid for by Uncle Sam. Ysabel didn't get a dime for surgery out of it, but I bet Robyn's sons did - Dayton for his accident and subsequent cosmetic eye surgery and Saul has had a few medical issues it seems. I don't think Truly's brush with death was covered by the pot either. That pot formed into the DABARKS family till once they moved out to LV. Coyote Pass is the site of all their broken hopes and dreams in more ways than one. Kody confessed he had stuff from multiple (yes, multiple) failed business on that lot. I wouldn't doubt he also had a fail tree cutting business and we know why if you saw the last episode. Probably snow removal, drywalling, various MLMs. Kody deserves a spinning helicopter kick to the throat for him calling Meri's friends bitches! I heard the production company this season is new? Has anyone heard that? I feel like Kody's darkness is being less brushed over but YMMV.

This I whole heartedly agree with. They would have made a full 8 course meal out of it if it was a stunt. They could have taken her to their faithful family doctor the chiropractor at the reputable Snap, Crackle and Pop Center for Chiropractic Care where the family gets all their essential oils and tinctures. I was blessedly shocked how quickly it was over.

I guess the same reason, engaged (if you haven't heard yet: spoiler alert) about to be married Christine can't shut up about him. It really is getting exasperating and I almost feel sorry for David. Even at their own pre-wedding stuff, he has to hear about Kody and luggage racks. Can't even sit down with Christine to eat nachos without a comparison being made. Granted, he comes off looking like a knight in shining armor and he must know on some level this is required for the show, but jeez, he must be tired hearing about that noodle headed fool. With regards to the t-shirt thing, strikes me that Kody is still getting his 20 years of revenge even post double divorce, but Meri is still too stuck in pick me mode to realize it. What is that if not petty, mean and vindictive?!?! I will stand ten toes down on the theory that Kody misses all the drama, the triangulation and the ego boost of all those women vying for his attention. He needed a fix, so he invented the t-shirt bullshit. I would be pissed not only to have to do that shit, but to pay postage to send a hand full of rags to that a-hole is going beyond the pale and adding insult to injury. Is it still possible to send things postage due? And getting pencil's wet. I'll see myself out!

I thought so! That is incredibly rich considering she allegedly moved the entire Brown clan to AZ to follow her 18 year old son to college. Another interesting tidbit was Kody saying he had the itch to move, AGAIN, but was hampered by the 2 girls in college and the tenders in a great school district. Might explain some developments.

I don't think that accident was fake. She really went flying off that thing and was lucky she didn't break something. Kody will never be mistaken for an EMT. Goodness! I found their conversation afterwards interesting but there was a LOT of word salad there. Hmm. .. interesting that Kody admitted that he has threatened Robyn with leaving. It sounded like it happened more than once, but again.. word salad. Goodness I hate saying this but Robyn's point was a valid one - he is either crazy or rewriting history over the "I never loved the OG3" thing. This didn't last too long, because in the same episode she said: "I noticed Kody changing. Meri, Janelle, Christine all changed but I didn't change!" Typical Robyn. Did Robyn call the children of the OG3 that moved away not part of the core family? I am gonna need a bath after writing this but part of me can also understands Kody's "I never really knew love until Robyn" bit. It is that whole love vs in love distinction. However, the problem is and was Kody and whatever personality disorder he has. The way he went about things was nothing short of psycho coco puffs insane. It all boils down to his synopsis of: if I love you that is your fault; if I don't love you that is also your fault. He takes no ownership for anything but loves to throw around that the OG3 and their kids never any accountability for anything, which drives me crazy!! Kody is a petty ass bitch for asking for his t-shirts back. And they aren't even t-shirts anymore. Just pieces of shirts that can't even be worn. More shit to add to the Brown estate garage I guess! I watch too many reality shows, did anyone else think of RHONJ when Avalon went missing? My immediate thought was, "you left your child unattended?!?" LOL! If that was real and not a set up for drama, Mykelti and Tony need to do better. Are we really gonna be subjected to that wedding again next episode? Christine's daughters have that 'great hair' gene.

I think just as interesting as this was Kody's non-reaction to it. I was surprised he didn't try to comfort her in any way, like part her arm, hold her hand or put his arms around her. Isn't Aurora Miss panic attack that he swooped up into her arms when she had an incident years ago when they were on the verge of buying the first million dollar home? I wonder with all the constant tears if he has gotten somewhat immune to them?

Robyn was dropping hints and bread crumbing the audience. I vividly remember her saying things like: - her kids are at an age where they could choose to live with their dad - if something happened to her, the Browns would have no legal rights to the 3 kids - she wants her kids with the Browns, in case anything happened to her Christine is on her sweet love hangover with David, and doesn't like Meri (or Robyn for that matter), so why would she lie for her? Stuff like this is why I always side eye production. They should've asked both Meri and Janelle if they recall Robyn's tales. It is like they want to keep the waters muddy and murky. As far as I am concerned this season, although not the most exciting, cleared up some major things falsehoods I always suspected 1 - it wasn't Meri's idea for Kody to court Robyn. They locked eyes in church, no less, and Kody starting laying the breadcrumbs. #2 the divorce wasn't Meri's idea either. Also, I liked that we got some discussion on finances, albeit not near enough.

I have been saying for years that it was never Meri's idea to divorce Kody. Now we learn tonight that Kody and Meri were discussing it for "years" (translation, Kody (and Robyn) trying to manipulate and wear down Meri) and Christine confirms that Robyn "planted" the story. This is some Inception level shit! I would be impressed if the "prize" wasn't Kody.

Petty theft at best!

The fact that Kody can't even trust Robyn to go to church and not be 'picked up' by some dude, confirms for me that he must know deep inside the way he met and got together with her was less wholesome than he and Robyn try to portray. She is going to church, not up in the club. Nice to have it further confirmed/solidified that Meri was doing all the work in the "relationship" with Robyn who never bothered to call, text back or make any effort with Meri. I love to hear Meri's friends lightly call out both Kody and Robyn. Loved to see everyone ooh and ah over Janelle in her hot pink dress. Every since someone mentioned to me that Christine tends to repeat things like Jimmy Two times from Goodfellas, it is all I can hear. I guess it is supposed to be a homey vibe, but ugh, that attic 'private' dining space is NOT. IT. But I guess it is better than having production ruin other people's dining experience.

Oh come now. Robyn has got .... options. What man wouldn't wait in line for a stay at home mom in her mid-40s who is "too pretty" to cook, clean, or parent. But never fear, she always has time to shop and spend all his money. So make sure to have a mansion with plenty of curio cabinets for collectibles by Precious Moments and Lladro and lots of wall space for 'investment' art that looks like it was commissioned by a Red Roof Inn. Has 5 kids who will likely be chained to his wallet for life because although she has no real time to parent, what little time she can spare is used to make sure they end up being 'failure to launch' permanent 'tenders'. Watch out for the youngest tender. She is shaping up to be a real 'pip.' Rolls out of bed around noon but that ensures she has the energy to service her best customer. What does she bring to the table? All the above, plus a goiter. So form an orderly queue fellas. Line starts behind Bill Gates, who I hear is single and ready to mingle. I could've gone the rest of my life without hearing the bolt of lightening story. It did confirm to me that it wasn't Meri's idea to introduce Robyn to Kody though. I am sure it was at Kody's insistence and likely put forth as a task that needed be done to put Meri back in his good graces and would bring him and Meri even closer together. Much like the move to Flagstaff and most likely the legal divorce (although those 2 also have Robyn's dirty lil fingers on those).
