We can definitely agree on that!

What I meant by not having the opportunity is that I'm pretty sure the only reading done in that house was the Bible and other religious material. I doubt if JB and Me ever encouraged them to dream about foreign and exotic places, or to study other religions and cultures. I realize they've gone on family trips abroad, but that was under JB's watchful eye and with the attitude that they were doing foreigners a blessing by visiting whatever foreign place they might be in. JB is the classic "Ugly American". The natural curiousity has been blanket-trained right out of them. But I'm going to hold on to hope that there may be a few who can come back from the brainwashing they've grown up with.

Agreed.

I agree with your analysis, but not your conclusion. Ignorance can be remedied, and maybe these foreign trips are just the thing to spark some interest and curiousity in the traveler. They might just pass that on to their children. I can't advocate shaming them (or anyone else, for that matter) because of what they've never had the opportunity to learn.

Did you catch that when Joe told Kendra, "Other people in my family do it", she replied, "Yes, I'm sure they do." There may be hope for Kendra. I agree with your friend. Yes.

I wonder where he found it? JB's stash?

Thank you.

I don't know anything about Marjorie or their breakup. Does anyone have any details? Was it abrupt? A surprise?

I don't know anything about Lauren's family. Are they financially "comfortable"? Do they have to live on a tight budget?

He looks just like Josh.

It will be interesting to see if anyone else remembers it!

I just watched this last night in U.S. and I recall this scene. Am I going crazy? Does anyone else in U.S. recall it?

I believe there was an episode where Penny referred to herself as "...just good ol' Penny ______ from Nebraska." Or something like that. I have no idea what season or episode, may be my imagination. Does anyone else recall that?

They all do.
