Gabe is hurt to the core that once again he is faced with the realization that he and his siblings mean so very little to their mothers, and even less to their father. The girls, some of them, seem to have sipped from the Kool-aid that the wives guzzle. The boys don't appear to have touched it. The boys all seem disgusted with Kody, for the way he treats them and for the pain they see in their mothers. When the boys leave--they leave. It is telling that none of the five children who are married or living with a partner have expressed any interest in polygamy.

Just shows how HARD they hate each other, if they can't even stand to pass by the "sister's" room on the way to the dang garage. "You can bang my "husband," but no way in Hell will I pass your door on my way to the car."

Am I the only one who got a "shackle" vibe from the ankle bracelet engagement jewelry? And the insta-bindi...I mean absolutely no offense, and please correct me on my ignorance.

Snowdens: The new candidate must not have watched last season. Why would you want a man who cheats on his "wife," or a man who would allow the "wife" to set you up to be caught in a lie and embarrassed on TV? He is a weak, horny man-child, who is "married" to a controlling bitch. Jocelyn--you lucky, girl. Winders: They are the younger new couple, right? Oh my hell. How did Kermit the Frog get two women, and who the Hell would be attracted enough to make it three? "These are my two lovely wives." Two lovely wives: "tee hee hee." Grizzly Adams in the RV just wants "more love." Yeah, we know. And Creepy McCreeperson Aldredge? Just ewww. New girl looks like a 17 year old.

Good parenting, once again, letting a quack sell you on useless exercises, while your daughter's spine curvature gradually worsens. I am sympathetic with Ysabel, however I was maddened watching Christine's hysterics over the brace last season. Unpleasant, painful, embarrassing...I get it. But letting your daughter see a back brace as the worst thing possible, letting her see you crying at the thought of her next xray? Was that helpful? Was that constructive or empowering? Take her to volunteer at a children's hospital. Let her see bald two-year-olds fighting Leukemia. Or better yet, YOU and Little Lord Fauntleroy go do that. Then maybe you can gain some perspective, and help your daughter to be a stronger woman.

Matt should probably hang on until Jackson or Ember is ready to run the place.

I don't sense real chemistry between Matt and Caryn. Am I missing something? Amy and Chris seem to be a good match, but Caryn gives off a vibe. Also, isn't it difficult watching the horrible suffering of Auj, the first pregnant woman in the world?

The banana and mayo sammiches are better if one slice of the bread has peanut butter, and the other has mayo. Pineapple and mayo sammiches are good, too. Or at least they were when I was a girl.

Love Tori and Zach, and think they will be great parents. I agree, though, that Tori really seemed unprepared for delivery. She hated the epidural, and said "Never again!" Try labor without one--I'm betting you'll change your mind. The C-section recovery was awful--try recovering from an episiotomy. I have delivered both ways, (um, intestines stay where God put them,) and have labored with and without meds. Believe me--there IS NO easy way. So worth it, though. Jackson?? ADORABLE!

Not a Jer fan, but I was kind of impressed and touched by how worried he seemed to be about his brother. He even knew the symptoms from the first time Zach's shunt failed. I might be remembering wrong, but I thought Zach just called to update Amy. She, being Amy, probably volunteered to bring him comfort food. His wife was still at work, is pregnant and would be too tired to cook after school. Her (Amy's) baby was sick. I'd have done the same thing with my grown son. I wouldn't stick around though, if he was okay. I'd leave the food and go. From Tori's POV, after a long day, I wouldn't have loved coming home to a house full of in-laws.

You guys, did you know that Jer and Auj have a baby on the way? Yeah, apparently. I think she's the first pregnant woman. Ever. And how smart they are to want to have a home, you know, before the baby gets here.

That is the way I remember it, too. Way back when, Matt and Caryn seemed closer than farm owner / farm manager. I recall times when the two of them sided against Amy, Amy stormed out of the office, while Caryn stayed behind, doing all she could to fight the urge to roll her eyes, etc. I think there is a long history of attraction between Matt and Caryn. In defense of Tori's invite: Tori met the family as an employee during pumpkin season, so Tori also had a relationship with Caryn. I think that Amy should have introduced Chris to her children before now. Six months seems like a long time.

Thank you! I think he is better suited to leading a mommy and Me class at Gymboree. "Backup Booties?" How 'bout a female lead with male "Dick Dancers?" Not cute. Not as annoying as the "choreographer" shaking her fat, punching the air and grunting: "oof, uppf, dat, boo," but still, no. No, thank you.

In the old episode, re Buddy: "I tried for three months to get him to get in my pants before he actually did! Haw Haw Haw!" Hasn't she said since, that they never slept together? More Middle School Mentality. Forget PCOS, we need her to focus some storylines on her raging MSM. PS Buddy looked great in that first episode!!

The cat breath, kissing is gross. Grow up. Whitney's oral fixation is hard to watch. Licking forks and spoons, constantly pulling at or picking at her mouth. Tonight--the worst--putting her mouth on the handrail of Babs' hospital bed! The germs and bodily fluids that that thing has seen. Please grow the fuck up, you overgrown woman-child.
