There are real places like these! There's even one in North Carolina where you can decorate your plates before smashing them.

Just when I was starting to think that Natalie truly IS the craziest person in this storyline Mother Mike saunters in and says, "Here, hold my mullet."

Lol, I'm STILL into all that stuff! ☺ Honestly, though, it's just the Snowdens in general that chaff my ass. They're total poseurs and I can't stand them. Also, did Ashley change the meaning of her Bindi again? Bert had a damn deer in headlights look. Like, Fuck! These people may not be as stupid as the other two! Turns out she had nothing to worry about.

Max is perfectly fine. I find him neither attractive nor unattractive. I was just voicing my agreement with another poster about his eyebrows. It's his acting and the way his character is written that I have problems with.

I had to wait to post. Had to take a few showers first... Does Bert even know that she's meant to get knocked up? All I've heard her say is "I live you", "it's hot", and "oooh la la"-the latter of which she seems to think 7s appropriate in any given situation. TLC may have initially come up with the idea of bringing the whole fam but Ick was definitely getting off (ew) on flaunting his fuckfest in front of his wife and in-laws. By the way, he's on something...right? The glassy eyes, dilated pupils, thousand yard stare, cognitive dissonance... Poor Chrissy. These fools rope these women in and tie them down quickly before they can realize what turds the Snowdens truly are. I wish Tricky Icky had also brought along his brother and sister-in-law. That might've been interesting. So no cultural feet washing or sound person or any of the other nonsense from their first wedding to Vanessa? Surely that doesn't mean it was all a crock of shit to start with! /s I hate Garrick. He's constantly looking at Danielle like she just let a massive fart and blamed the dog.

*snort* that's true. On the other hand, Putnam's "thoughts and praters" for Fred was one of the highlights for me.

Same. The majority of the preview were just shots of June in different lighting situations.

My son, who counts the # of times they do a close up of June's face, thought that was the end of the episode. He was like, "Really? They needed that much filler? They had NOTHING else?" When he realized there was more to the episode he got pissed. "We could've been seeing more of 'Remains of the (Red Center's) Day' instead of this crap. We get it. She has nice pores." And when he saw "Directed by Elisabeth Moss" at the end, "Okay. Well, that explains that!"

I glazed over during all the Toronto scenes and actually enjoyed the Gilead ones and the ones with Fred and SJ. The eyebrows and the wooden acting. Kawliga had more personality.

I should've said "she wasn't even referred to by name" in the book.

Agree. Have an upvote! Book June was no Handmaid Hero. She was meant to represent all of them. She didn't even have a name.

I follow his daughter on Twitter. Even she doesn't see them. I still feel sorry for Karine.

Yes! That makes perfect sense. The scene as shown was bizarre. I'm no fan of Libby but she and Andrei were being attacked and all Chuck could do was tell HER to calm down.

I still worry about Nikki. When's the last time we saw proof of life?

I buy weird shit but that's going too far even for me. There's a subreddit where someone posts all of them.

Every time it's time to cast HEA Pole and Karine have some kind of new drama. I think they're trying for publicity and to drum up interest. I got mixed up in their drama a year ago. It was...educational. Speaking of... I shouldn't have done it but I clicked on one of their OF pix. I keep trying to tell myself that it was evaporated milk on Karine's chest but since Pole was holding a condom above her... I may never sleep or eat again.

@Quof Section SCR 3.130(1.18) "Duties to prospective client" only covers a prospective client if it's an actual consultation. Simply calling up an attorney and airing grievances is not the same. Paul could complain but it wouldn't hold water. It's not illegal but it's probably not really good practice. @suzywallis ! That's some good, juicy tea. And very Pole. Has anyone in this franchise ever gotten anywhere with a lawsuit?

The laws vary from state to state but in Kentucky attorney client privilege only exists if the person is an actual client. Or if the attorney was offering a free consultation. It doesn't apply to cold calls initiated by the prospective client UNLESS the client specifically states that the communication is privileged. The lawyer didn't break anything.

I highly doubt the rings are real. They look like the ones my Facebook friends are always shilling from their MLM's. They cost $50. Tops. You can find inexpensive manicures. Back when I used to actually get them is go to the local beauty school and pay $10. Since Angela is now one of the big 90 Day players she's probably pulling in $10,000 per episode. They start them st around $1,500, but she's been on it for awhile. She's also been doing sponsorships. Since they use identifying information for the doctors the surgeries are undoubtedly comped. They blur Pepsi labels and make the cast remove certain pictures from the walls so that they don't give them accidental publicity. If they're using a business' name then they're getting something out of it.

I agree in theory, but car damage can be weird. You can't always see the damage. My husband and daughter were sitting at a red light when a car behind them came barreling down the road at 60mph and rammed into the car behind them which then rammed into ours. Neither husband nor child had a scratch on them. In fact, a glance at our vehicle (a Buick Enclave) basically just showed some dents. It looked far better than Asuelu's. All the damage was in the undercarriage, the wheels, and the engine. It was totaled and I miss that thing every day. My 9yo yelled "just pump those things" at Kalani. Sharp probably suggested the trip because of all the attention we gave the last one. Trish is pretty cocky for a woman who seemingly has a Lhaso Apso sticking out of her straw hat and looks like a thumb. Chuck should be shut that shit down as soon as it started. He's part of the problem. If you can find celery root in January in my tiny town's only grocery store (Save a Lot)...They were trying to sabotage her.

Okay, my daughter and I just rewatched. You can hear the music box. It even says "tinny notes on tape" in the CC. You can hear the music box more clearly the first time when Jamie's alone than when he plays it for Jeanette.

I thought I heard music, too. It's possible that Jeanette remembered the dialogue from the movie that was playing. ie, Martin's tv was on at the time. But that doesn't explain the music box and what looking at it might show her.

So I watched the whole episode on Discovery+ and all I've got to say is fuck most of these people. Family Libby...it's hard to accept y'all being wealthy, sophisticated yachters when I've seen some of your assholes. Like, literally. Trish can fuck off. You know they got Hookergate on tape. I'm guessing that Trish made a joke about Shrugger grabbing Natalie's hoo ha. I don't like Tiffany but Ronald attitude on the phone was pissing ME off. Loved how shocked Angela was when the doctor refused to give her a facelift. We need more people she can't bully. Does Family Mykul really think Angela can have a baby? Like, REALLY? Yara may have been prepared for his leaving but reality can be different. She's probably still hormonal, too. I have a soft spot for her. Shrugger can kiss my ass. He's enjoying his mom's antics.

The gunshot at night vs Kate not being rescued until the next day is confusing, but there's always a chance that the nighttime shot wasn't Martin dying. He could've been shooting someone else.

Okay, here's my boring theory about the show: Despite Kate's animosity towards Jeanette, Mallory is the one who saw Kate in Martin's house. I think she saw it on the video, or while she was filming it, but didn't say anything because she didn't realize how bad the situation was at the time. She might not have even realized the girl in the window was Kate. Once Kate was rescued and it came to light that Martin had been holding her captive I think Mallory suffered a ton of guilt because she realized that if she'd said something sooner Kate might've been rescued. That's why she is in therapy. The reason she's going out of her way to be nice to Kate is due to guilt and penance. Mallory didn't do anything wrong, per se, but but she feels responsible. I DO think that Mallory believes Kate about Jeanette seeing her, and that's one of the reasons she's angry at J-NOT because J didn't tell anyone about Kate but because of her OWN guilt for not telling anyone. It's transference. Jeanette stole the snow globe from Martin's and gave it to Mallory as a peace offering. You can see it in Jeanette's room at one point. Jeanette recognized the music and when she heard it she realized that Kate WAS in the house at that time (Kate made the call) because she remembers the music box going off before she stole it. In fact, Jeanette may have been the one who accidentally made it go off. It would suck if Kate was hiding with the cordless and didn't speak to Jamie on the phone because she thought it was Martin. If Mallory had told someone about the girl in the window, if Kate had spoken up on the phone, if Tanya had told someone about the teen girl in Martin's closet, if Joy had gone to the police sooner, if Jamie had told someone about Martin giving them a ride home that night...If. At first I hated the last scene but then I thought it was kind of sad and sweet. Even though the girls aren't friends anymore, Mallory still keeps a reminder of Jeanette. I think she still misses their old friendship but doesn't see a way back. Jeanette never saw Kate but Kate honestly remembers seeing Jeanette. Whether she REALLY saw her or Martin convinced her she did (planting a false memory) could go either way. Jeanette dropped the necklace and Martin found it. He used it to convince Kate that J was really in the house and to gaslight her more ("See? Jeanette was here but she hates you and won't tell anyone"). Annabelle? Either an object, like his gun, or someone we don't know yet. Tanya came from out of left field so this person could, too. In the end everyone will learn that the only villain is Martin. Everyone else made choices that they thought were okay at the time. Nobody acted out of animosity. Anger is being misdirected because everyone needs someone to blame and, well, Martin is dead. Thanks for coming to my Tedx Talk.
