And AuroraBreanna could have helped with the tenders' participation in the Christmas Gift exchange since they were all being held hostage in the same house together.

I wonder if Sukanya Krishnan will ask Kody fewer softball questions this year since the producer has been giving us a more realistic take on K&R lately

Yes, and like most of the remaining OG13, brought tokens to put in Garrison's grave. It probably didn't occur to Kody to do something like that.

Gabe went over to hug Aurora & Breanna; none of them bristled, Kody. And Garrison DID have an online business selling Hawaiian shirts; he probably made more money than Robyn ever did.

Kody: "I haven't done anything like this before" - what about that much larger hole you dug for Drake and the smaller hole for the family time capsule? How typical that Kody put the buckets etc. too close to the hole so there wasn't enough room for everyone to stand around for the burial.

JoJo looks a lot like Hunter must have at that age

I too feel like something might be going on with her. I am starting to feel uncomfortable watching her. She was acting odd for months before we found out her 'bipolar' drugs had been messed with, but never was back to 100% after that and is still acting and looking a bit odd, but not in exactly the same way. Such as not really focusing on anything when talking to people and smiling & squinting when the words or situation don't warrant it. I was talking about this a couple of days ago and then had a dream about Julie Christie's behaviour in the movie "Away From Her", about a woman in the early stages of dementia (Julie Christie has autobiographic amnesia in real life). The fact that I remembered scenes from that 2006 movie so vividly and equated it with Sharon in a dream was unsettling. It makes me wonder if Sharon Case has a condition that they are going to incorporate into a storyline for Sharon Collins Newman Abbott Newman Newman McAvoy Rosales. I hope she's OK.

It would be a great name for a vibrator 😉

She'll be 60 in September!

I'd already completely forgotten about Cole ... again!

It struck me that way too, but I was wondering if the producers were that clever. Though Kody probably thought it referred to him as the blessed one, when viewers see the OG3 and OG12 as the blessed ones.

If 'Those Who Mourn' Are 'Blessed', what are those who aren't mourning?

The way Mariah is acting, it sounds like what she did was the worst thing anyone could imagine. So my imagination wondered if she got drunk with Ian and gave him the wedding night he always wanted (when he first found Mariah in GC years ago, he told her he kept the wedding dress he got for her).

She may have been sticking her tongue out just to be goofy or dismissive, but was doing it like Miley Cyrus did in her horny & flirtaceous Wrecking Ball days. Creepy, especially for the family restaurant setting.

Meri & Janelle were interviewed ~2 wks after Garrison's death based on their comments; Savanah was still living in the Flagstaff apartment when Janelle first went to NC, so that is probably where Meri took the food. ~4 months later, Janelle & Savanah were filmed packing up the apartment & visiting the Humane Society before her move to NC (before she started college in August).

and Garrison's birth was only memorable because Kody got to hold him first.

I would have preferred more photos & videos of Garrison instead of Kody philosophizing and Robyn professing her (fake) love for Garrison at the restaurant.

Robyn probably won't allow it in the house.

Nobody seemed interested in them. Kody: "Time to get going", Ari: "Finally!" As a Canadian, the most memorable thing I saw in Cody, Wyoming, was that Guns & Ammo were sold at the Liquor Stores.

The problem with Adam selling his condo is that he & Chelsea seem to be getting on each others' nerves, and it probably won't be long before they decide they cannot be together 24/7 and he'll wish he'll want his condo back.

Garrison messaged several people who work for the Brown family, saying, "I want to hate you for sharing the good times. But I can't. I miss these days". Janelle was concerned, reached out to Garrison through text, and the two had a brief conversation before he stopped responding. She contacted her other boys to see if Garrison would respond to them. Gabe eventually went to check on him. That text could be interpreted multiple ways. I prefer hearing someone's voice to help detect how they're really feeling.

Nobody on the show and none of the people they talk to on the phone have ever seen Aristotle Dumas, so I'm not holding my breath. Once the writers figure out what they plan to do with this SL, I wouldn't be surprised if it is someone we already know.

Though I'm still analyzing the makeover of the Abbott Mausoleum. What I don't understand is why someone like Diane would bother to change what looked like grandma Dina's home 50+ years ago into someone else's unknown grandma's home with tchotchkes and a portrait that nobody recognizes. I think even Jack was expecting Diane to completely make it her own, updating the style to something more like Sally's decor. Otherwise just refresh the paint and draperies/upholstery and keep the family's favourite and familiar art and accessories.

Victoria seemed to be really surprised. I wondered if JM might have slipped that in to prank AH.

Mykelti made trips to visit K&R, but Robyn probably only went to Utah to visit Mykelti for filming, like when the twins were born and Robyn was sleeping in the closet with the newborns portraying herself as a more devoted Mom than Christine. Like Meri and Maddie (Kody's previous favourite daughter), Mykelti probably began to see that Robyn & Kody were only there for the show & themselves, not for her.
