Honestly, if Jason is just "being there" 6 times a year or so? That's progress in my opinion. And his sperm donor should have choked on some of his words. And Jason should have fired right back with, " yeah. Thanks to my mom."
Nicole. I have many thoughts of her but the main one is; if you want to act like a man, fine. But you can't fall back on "I'm a girl" when the masculine thing isn't working out for you. Jump into a drunk, pissed off, person's face and expect to be treated like a lady? No. That doesn't work like that. Bow up to a person, expect to get bowed up back. I don't care what plumbing either person has. You just don't do it. And if you do, you chose it and the consequences that come with it.

No. I don't remember his name but he was the opposite of the guy she usually goes for.

Good grief! How did she NOT snap her ankle again that night? Ouch.

I missed the majority of it, too. I did catch Katie telling Sassi that she was the most selfish person she has ever met, though. That was fun. The preview showed Stassi saying "I feel like I should just apologize and say I'm wrong because everyone...." And the whole group cuts her off and says "because you are wrong!" Ha!

I'm clearing off my dvr. I'm on Farrah's show. "I need a fresh of breath air", Farrah.
That was fun. I don't think production likes her very much.

I don't know. I think Kail would be delighted to know Vee was having a girl. That way, Kail will still have "the son". I could be wrong but that's the feeling I get from her.

I suppose this could be the case. I guess my question is why then would Brandi admit to smoking pot with Kyle? It's true that we don't have a solid timeline but the indication is that it had to have happened within the past year or so since it's unlikely that they would have felt cool enough with each other prior to that point to do something like that with each other.
I agree though that it was an odd about face. Maybe it was simply down to strategy for the show and wanting to look more disciplined than the other women? Even that doesn't really work thought because again, why would she bring up smoking with Kyle?
So that no matter what his attorney throws at her, her attorney can say "yes, you are right. She did in the past, and admits to it, but she doesn't now. See?" And he submits the clean UA. That puts an end to that argument and opens the door to move on to the next one.

I can believe her attorney told her not to smoke. It's not about custody because neither one of them care that much. The kids are just money and that's what they are fighting over. Money. She probably told her attorney about the 21 day cleanse that just so happened to end before her week long vacation. Her attorney might have advised her to go with that. 21 days of cleansing, plus 7 or so of vacation. That's almost 30 days. Don't drink any alcohol after the plane ride home, don't smoke, and two days after you get home-voluntary urine analysis that will be clean. Submit that to the court before the court even asks for it. Brandi wins that round, by accident or coincidence, but she still wins it.
That's my theory anyway.

Allow me to translate this as a sister of a recovering alcoholic though still pretty messed up in other areas:
"Kathy never, ever gets on my case and nags and hounds me about my drinking/finances/kids/house like you do. Kathy never criticizes me and is supportive of me- unlike you, Kyle."
It's just my sister and I so can't imagine what a third sister in the mix would be like but since it's only us, I'm the bad guy and her goofy friends are the good guys. All addicts have good guys (enablers) and bad guys (non-enablers/truth-tellers)
Still reading but I had to reply to this;
Ain't that the truth! I can't imagine how three sisters work in this situation. I was one of two, as well. I caught hell for not "being nice". Fuck that. Give me raw, you get raw right back. (Sidenote: I'm glad your sister is in recovery. I hope she is doing well and can appreciate your support. It sounds there's some hope there.)

Well, they can always sit in the neighbor's driveway like she did with Iyanla.

Yes. And that's where I give her the benefit of the doubt.
She picked one year of prison. Facing 5 years of jail/rehab if I remember correctly.
No matter though, she picked prison. She violated and knew she would violate. If you can't pass a drug test in rehab, when can you? Again, I totally think she will use again. I just think she showed some balls and went hard core with the prison thing. That shows commitment. Not success, necessarily. But commitment, imo.

Did anyone see the fox walk by in the yard when Daddy and Murray were talking on the porch?
I saw it. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a fox, though. Just a random cat-which makes sense in their rural setting.

Amber could be avoiding triggers. She may not want to see herself wrecked because she'll crave the drugs. She was pretty hooked, she admitted chewing fetynl patches. I'm probably giving her too much credit but its possible.
I agree with this. She was in rehab, a comfy pretty rehab, when she was chewing on those patches. She opted to go to prison. I'm pretty sure the court would have been happy leaving her in rehab. She wasn't. She made a very real decision to get clean.
I'm not saying she won't slip up or relapse. I'm just saying I think she is committed to not being on those pills anymore. And she will fight for that, at this age. Ask me in 20 years and I'll have a different answer. For now, I have hope for her. Slip ups and all.

I'm from Ft. Madison and Centerville. And I know how to pronounce "Des Moines". But I feel safe handing Farrah off into Nebraska. :)I see someone already commented on this and you explained... because I was going to give a "say whaaaaaaaat?" to it as well since I have lived in Iowa my whole live and still do (in Des Moines). I say we blame part of issue on Nebraska/Omaha since Council Bluffs (where Farrah and family is from) is basically a suburb of Omaha ;) (But I totally love Omaha)

This confuses me. I don't see how Farrah's family translates to these types roam free in Iowa. I don't know anyone like that in Iowa....not that I know everyone by any means, but I would never associate Farrah's crazy family as representing Iowans. Far from it actually--most people I know are really down to earth, nice people.
As for Farrah--I was so disappointed to find out they decided to have her on after all. She is so depressing, and her family is just as bad. I actually like Farrah more than her mom, so that is scary in itself.
The others seem to be doing okay, but I am not sure any of them needed to return to tv.
I don't express myself very well at times. Iowegians are very nice and down to earth. I grew up there and still have a bunch of family there. I guess my point is better stated that I have met families like Farrah's.
Example:My whole softball team was invited to a sleepover and it was pretty weird that only 2 of us went. This was that type of family. It's really odd how delusional and entitled they feel they are. In public, everything seemed fine. But in the house? It was amazing. The house looked like a museum, unless you opened a cabinet/closet/refrigerator/etc. The father and son were totally scared of the mother and daughter. They made each other miserable but "looked"happy. It was very uncomfortably odd, to say the least.
It was very much like Farrah's family. I apologize for attributing this stereotype to just Iowa. I've only witnessed it first hand there so I chose my words based on my experiences. I didn't mean to be offensive but I can see how it could come off that way.

That could be the answer. SNL used to have some great skits about things like this. I just remember when people were going left, just getting quiet and going limp. The whole point was to go unnoticed. Clearly, this is not how Farrah reacted. It's sad and fascinating, all at once.
-
I'm gonna guess you have never lived in Iowa? I did. These types roam free. And they are actually held up as "the standard". It's amazing.I've said it before and I'll say it again, something is off about Farrah and her whole family. She looks like a duck with those lip injections and is on her way to a case of Nerf face. She was a pretty girl before and there is something underneath she needs to address with the anger she feels towards her family--the way she reacted to the flashback clips shows she's not over things or dealing with things--and why she needs to continue altering her appearance. She needs serious counseling because I don't think the therapy is working, although the whole family is so wackadoodle that I don't know that it would even register.
I'm in Florida now, where the froot loops make sense. Figure that one out! Some of us are nuttier than others.....

"so I kinda wanted to scream when he said they should've picked a different child if they didn't want Carly in the public eye."
Say what?! I missed this little gem. He's lucky he ain't my kid. I would have smacked some blood into his mouth. If you are old enough to make another human being, you are old enough to be responsible for them. Keep them, adopt them, I don't care. Be accountable. We aren't exactly walking through the cages at the shelter. We are talking about people. "Pick a differnt one"? Not good, my friend. Not good.

I thought Debra looked pretty bad. ??? Ironically enough, I thought Farrah looked pretty good. This is exactly the opposite of what I have ever thought, though.
All I remember about Cate and Tyler is April lasted about 10 minutes and then bolted.
I can't help it, I root for Amber. She went to a fancy rehab that she would have never been able to go to without cameras, still got messed up, and then asked for jail to get straight. That's a commitment in my book.
Maci? Whatever. Bentley didn't want to go to Nashville. I'll sit in his car seat. There's really good places to eat there.
My husband just walked through the room. He heard Farrah say "stop" a few times while she packed a suitcase or something. He said,"Stop. Collaborate and listen". I said, "I swear to God if she busts that out? She will be most favorite Teen Mom ever". It didn't happen but it was a fun idea.

"Good to see he isn't talking to you either. I thought he was just snubbing me"
"Was it tequila night down at St. Benedict's?"
" I didn't treat her any different than I always do!" "ok, I'll call her tomorrow and apologize".

M is for the Mall. Where Krystal snags rubber sheets on the blue light special. And Dan ends up parking at "dan's". Ha!
N is for the needle-nosed neighbor that is in need of an operation.

That's right! I forgot about Diana. So basically, NeNe thinks only women named Kim that wear wigs should not be able to "make it work" with married men. Interesting.

C is for corn! Wasn't there corn of some kind in every single episode?
D is for dodge. As in slug bug/Cadillac whack, etc. on the road trip to check out the mistress. "Dodge" "Dodge what?" "Dodge this!"

Isn't Nicole an EMT? It's probably a good idea to have a first responder in the house. Especially with this "revolving door o' skeletons" storyline.

I hope it doesn't end here, either. I still have season 1 and 3 on my DVR because I've been watching from the start with my sister. (Who has since passed so...)
My guess about not showing Jason pick Nicole up is because he didn't pin her to a wall. When the camera cut away, they were on the interior balcony area. I suspect he picked her up there and was damn lucky he didn't drop her off. It's the only reason I can think of for not showing it. They have shown almost everything else.
Plus, I think if he just "jacked her up", she would have forgiven him. He scared her to her core. And I think that balcony/walkway had something to do with it.
