Denize

I wish I could look away, but I find that I increasingly need to lip-read his minimal lip movements to figure out what he is saying (I DVR & can't turn on CC after the fact just for him). He is especially hard to understand when slumped in remote locations like the dive bar and Neil's commemorative bar. It seems like TPTB have cheaped out with only one boom mike trying to pick up the conversations. The yelling may make what he says louder, but that doesn't make it more intelligible. And his eyes are creepier when he is belligerant!

She also likes to tell people when & where she is travelling (& namedropping any famous travelmates). Though she must have someone drop by to feed her menagerie when her home is unoccupied. The "yard" guy?

With 3 toddlers, most likely by Canadian Pacific Railroad to Vancover (transcontinental RR completed in 1885, before the US, & Sir Sanford Fleming invented time zones to keep train schedules straight), then by ship to Alaska. My great grandfather took the alternate route (without kids), by train to Calgary, then overland to the Klondike where he found some gold. I have his horse bridle, made of leather, with a silver bit and porcupine quill design.

Ashley also had a breakdown long before Robert-the-Blanket, when she was having an affair and got pregnant by Victor who left her to go back to his wife Nikki & young child Victoria. Ashley decided to have an abortion instead of becoming a single mother. Victor gave Ashley a cottage as a consolation prize.

1/16th Irish ... and the original "Irish" guy (Charles Adams) left at 3 months old, not long enough to embrace Irish kulchure. When is Meri going to celebrate the other 15/16ths of her roots?

Nadia is cute. I hope Jordan doesn't take her hostage or anything.

And the insurance on a brand new, big fancy car is more expensive too. It would make sense to sell it and buy something more reasonable and have money left to pay the taxes on it.

The first owner was a Davenport who married an Adams; both names sound English, not Irish. It was common for eldest sons to inherit everything and younger siblings moved off to Scotland and Ireland before emigrating to North America. But the Irish have a reputation for enjoying holidays, so St. Paddy's Day it is. I guess Meri figured out that her fans don't have $3,000-6,000 for retreats with Meri, but may be able to scrounge up $50

Perhaps TPTB are setting us up for Ashley & Nikki being roommates in a multipurpose rehab/looneybin facility (that is what Victor would call it, not me), likely in a room that looks exactly like Clare's to avoid needing a new set. The fact that Nikki has not had professional intervention after being kidnapped and put on an IV full of vodka is astonishing. And why is a mentally unstable criminal (Clare) now allowed to have unsupervised storytime with a child from the pneumonia wing of the hospital? It would make much more sense for Clare to bring the book to the child, rather than taking the child back to her room. The staff at this place seem to be as inept as Victor's security team ... a foreshadowing of Jordan standing by Clare's bed again?

Sunny also seemed to be surprized that 7% of her ancestors were Sephardic Jews (Jewish people of Spanish or Portuguese descent) who spoke Spanish 🙄

Mitch's longer hair and interest in Muay Thai makes me wonder if he has joined his local Manosphere.

Sounds like it is full of excess stuff from before her wedding gifts rolled in. I wonder if it will be that big red toaster?

Kody has always seemed to thrive on chaos. He could keep the wives off balance by being on the move, but running around between houses on the cul de sac was no longer enough, expecially because the wives could see from their windows that he was at Robyn's 90% of the time.
