    I don’t think Christine was ever comfortable or happy with polygamy.  Christine really wanted a monogamous relationship but just wouldn’t come clean with herself.  

    Christine was a naïve and insecure girl raised in polygamy when she married her first crush. She said she always wanted to be a 3rd wife, but probably thought that was the best she could do. Kootie reinforced that by saying she was a disgusting nacho gourmand who he only married because she was plyg royalty.

    Actually, those were exactly his own words!  When he is officiating the marriage, there are cuts back and forth to him on the couch, and on the couch he calls himself a "failed priest".

    But he laughed with a ghoulish, smug smile when he said it. I wasn't sure what he exactly meant by that look, but possibly that it was a joke, not that he really thinks he is a "failed priest". Do AUBs even use the word priest? Usually he calls himself a prophet.

    I thought the same thing, there he is, manspreading into the aisle, trying to assert his dominance over a situation where he has absolutely no power, control or starring role. 

    and probably PO'd that the bride's family was sitting in front of him in the front row on the bride's side of the aisle

     I'm not watching a redo on wedding shops, or rental properties.  

    I've had to take it off my PVR and just read the snark here to see if there is anything worth watching. So far, nothing! But I enjoy everyones' descriptions!

    I HATED this scene!  It made me so mad for Truley.  So she hates riding bikes.  Not everyone is good at it or likes it.  I really want to kick Kody in the nads.

    And that bike seat was 2-3" too high for her, so I cannot blame her for being afraid of falling onto the bar.

    I would treat Kody like a kid who is very upset.

    Put him in the corner in a time out - 1 minute for each year of age. Then forget to release him after 53 minutes.

  7. Keeping calm and sweet is best for Christine's health. She and Janelle appear to have learned to just let his rage-filled comments roll off their backs because if they let it get to them they will stew in misery like Meri & Robyn. Just ignore it and you can go on with your life.

    I like to think Janelle was home and just turned off the lights and crab walked/skittered about her RV to avoid any contact with Robyn (how's that for social distancing?). 

    I was thinking Janelle may have been in the RV but Robyn didn't even bother to knock since no vehicle was in sight. But Savanah or one of the boys could have borrowed it.

  9. In My Own Opinion?  IMHO (in my honest opinion) is more common.

    It would be much more interesting to see her dealing with her challenges headfirst rather than whining about poor poor me. Going to a voice coach, getting pedal extenders and learning to use them, going to a tailor or learning to sew/modify adult clothing to fit her size, etc.

    Everything’s fine and in place. They just didn’t tell me it would be this bad, they told me the opposite. The PT people said it happens all the time that patients aren’t told how terrible it is the first month. It’s frustrating because I’d rather be prepared for a bad, long haul. That’s what makes me the most upset. 

    Hopefully you have started to re-set your mindset based on what the PT people have told you (they tend to be more realistic than the surgeons who don't see the struggles). I too like to prepare physically & mentally for the potential long haul. Luckily I made my doctor tell me the worst case scenario before my ACL reconstruction. That way, when I worked hard to meet targets, it was very satisfying to be progressing faster than the people half my age who weren't doing all of the icing & exercises according to plan, so I felt like I was accomplishing rather than failing at the goals.

    It’s a small flask of booze, she said it’s her “Liquid Courage” 

    I wonder if the flasks were wedding favours?  It appeared that Garrison had the same things in his beer delivery boy bandolier.

    Michelle & Logan seemed to enjoy visiting artisanal breweries.

    As Janelle stood up and started to walk away he shouted something like “you’re making a BIG mistake by walking away!”  🤷‍♀️

    That was the second time we've seen her walk away from a "family discussion" which always ends up being his way or the highway.  I don't blame Janelle. It is not worth wasting time talking to someone who never listens.  And he often walked away from her and the boys when he got tired of what they were saying or RV leveling.

  12. I recall driving through Wyoming in the middle of the night and it was lined with low and high pairs of reflectors - the eyes of jackrabbits and deer - so many that you rarely saw just darkness.  It was nerve-wracking to watch for any movement indicating they were going to stop eating grass and run across the road.

    Honestly, she is coming off dumber and dumber with each passing episode...buying a massive RV sight unseen, marveling that she can't just connect electric power to a prairie dog's ass (I am going to laugh about your comment all day long, I already know it)

    Janelle must not have taken high school physics, where she might have learned how to set up a hamster wheel for the prairie dogs and used that and her exercise bike to make electricity.

    She did laundry at Christine's house and they probably showered there some of the time.  They were probably off at Christine's while Robyn was sittin' on the PPP keeping and eye on her domain.

    I think Janelle rather than being too lazy simply doesn't care about Kody any more.  He can be around for filming or if he's useful, otherwise she seems done with him.

    As we saw in the RV-leveling episode, he is not useful, but more trouble than he's worth. Janelle learned on her own how to change the hose to the other water tank - she should have started doing that sort of thing years ago rather than thinking testosterone was required.

    The flashback of Gabe & Kootie log-pilling didn't show the whole clip where Gabe was crying when describing the time when they'd all isolated for 14 days so Kootie could/would visit, but he didn't because he didn't trust Janelle, but did include the part that he doesn't trust any of them.

    Maybe it's because I wasn't watching the show during the years when Diane was doing all the things that has everyone in town hating her, but I do know that not one of these folks has room to throw stones. Not.One.

    I WAS watching the show when Diane was doing all of these things, but yes, the way it is being written now, I too am rooting for Diane & Tucker against the Witches, Aunt Jack, and the renewlyweds.

    If she buys a house in Canada, could she live there then?  How does that work?  I’m not an immigration lawyer. 

    As someone with no status in Canada, she can only visit for a maximum of 6 months. Border control could limit that to less than 6 months if she answers questions in ways that make them suspicious of her motives or she doesn't have enough money to live for 6 mos and enough money to cover any medical problems and her cats'.

    Kody just flops that noodle hair around, yells how everyone is doing mean things TO HIM, and looks like an idiot.

    He sits back and smiles with his chest puffed out as if he believes all the viewers will think he is the one who is correct in all these arguments.  He couldn't be more wrong.

    I’d have googled the RV issue. 

    Janelle probably did and mentioned the first thing thing to try - putting something under the tires on the low side of the vehicle.  Kootie pooh-poohed that idea.  But it makes sense. The auto-leveller probably has a range over which it can fine-tune the leveling when the bump-outs are extended.  It cannot make huge adjustments if the tires on one side are inches higher than the other side.  She also pointed out that one of the "feet" was hanging in the air ~3" off the ground; Kootie said that didn't matter. They are lucky he took off without finishing a job he was incapable of. Gabe probably figured it out.
