S11.E12: Robyn vs. Kody

[Galloway Cave]

Quote

Robyn's rental has been sold out from under her and she has only 28 days to find a new house; there are no rentals and tensions run high as Kody insists on buying a house; not wanting to stop building on Coyote Pass, Robyn refuses.

Groundhog Day, day 17.

At the time of filming, they had lived in Flag for a year or so. Nothing had happened out at Plague Flats during that time. Even though the LV houses took a while to sell, they could have been getting a survey done and initiated utilities. That all could have happened whether they were building one or multiple houses (but we all know the one house was nothing more than a story line). Me thinks they have no intention of ever building on the properties. Land was bought for investment. The Robyn story line is 99% fake. Same goes for the entire season arc.

With the world currently on fire, watching the Brown Fambly Shenanigans seems extra-pointless.

That really is a lovely comparison. These people really do have the brain capacity and personalities, you’d expect from the world’s most disliked root vegetable. I’d rather watch this version. .

I like turnips...but not the brown clowns   😳

Me too.  Turnips are a nice lower-carb substitute for potatoes in stews, etc.  Janelle could benefit from this Rockstar vegetable.

Ummm, not to be too indelicate, but I can imagine with the weight Janelle carries in her abdomen, there is a lot of pressure on her digestive system.  I wouldn't want to be downwind of her after eating turnips.🤢

[deirdra]

You may be right, considering the volumes of food the Browns eat, like a 10 ounce can of cabbage for Axlebrush, or a pound of broccoli swimming in bottled low-fat (high-sugar) salad dressing for Janelle.  The few slices of turnip I eat in a serving of stew don't cause me any digestive problems.

I love turnips, the small white ones, fresh from the farm stand. I eat them raw.  Yummm.  
I can’t imagine Janelle has even tried them.  She’s missing out!

Producer: When are you going to move to Coyote Pa-

Janelle: NEVER! Like, never.

 

[suev33 3]

Suck it up, Sobyn.....your king rules the roost, remember?   Hopefully Kod found some balls since last week 🙄

[Sweetpea4Utoo]

Robyn looks pregnant 

[Adeejay]

Janelle said that she wishes she was the kind of mom that Maddie is.  I guess she is referring to how hands on she is with her son, because Christine and Logan basically raised her kids.  Which is why Logan appears to be resentful and Maddie has an extra special relationship with Christine.

 I have a feeling Robyn doesn’t want to buy a house in Flagstaff, because she doesn’t plan on staying there.

I am not surprised that Aspyn moved back to Lehi.  I am willing to bet that sooner or later, all the older kids are going to be living in Utah. 

[ErikaAlyson]

Kody is such a different person with Robyn it’s so weird to me. Also why are her kids super special that he worries so much of how they’ll react opposed to his biological children?? the real estate girl was pretty and exotic😃

[Tuxcat]

Do interns edit this show or something? How many times do we need to hear Robyn say that she doesn't want to buy. How many times do we need to hear Kody say that he doesn't want to rent. I really just watched this? 

[Caseysgirl]

This about as entertaining as watching your parents fight.  Robyn is a very stubborn woman and wasn’t it her idea to leave Vegas in the first place?  Stop crying and talking about something that isn’t possible. I can sort of see what happened with her and her former husband. When do you think Kody will move in with sweet Christine who is now slender and happy? 

[65mickey]

So this show starts around 10:05 and ends right at 11:00. When did this start? I don't think that I saw a total of 10 minutes because I kept falling asleep and every time I woke up Kody was saying we have to make an offer on a house and Robyn was saying no I want to keep looing for a rental. And she was packingt the same very small plastic bin.  Kody keeps saying we have to move out of our house. He calls Robyn either Mrs. Brown or love. I am willing to bet he is living exclusively with Robyn. Maybe I slept through the scenes with the others but this show has become the Robyn and Kody show. The whole madeup fight about buying vs. renting is just BS. Hell I would rather see Mary hawking her Lulano crap.

[bichonblitz]

Was Sobbyn pretending to have a panic attack when she was sitting at the table begging Kody to ask if they could put down a small earnest money deposit? Does she even know what she's talking about? She is out of her mind. Now I see where her daughter gets her panic attacks from. She see's Sobbyn crying and shaking all the time. What a mess they are. I'm surprised Kody doesn't run for the hills (or mountains) after dealing with Sob and the kids. Thank you Kody for showing us how much fun polygamy is!

Edited March 23, 2020 by bichonblitz

[sheshark]

Kody was so sorry he upset Auroranbrianna mentioning they would need to go to another high school.  Then he would request they be allowed to stay in their current school, he will fight it!  Take that, Gabe!  What a horrible man, husband and father.  

[luvmylabs]

Didn't they end up buying a $900,000 house?  Kody should have given up and when it was time to move out brought them to a motel...that's a rental, no?  And he should stop "freaking out MY kids".

Regardless they have now invested a ton of money in the flood plain property and purchased several homes at top market value and will probably be in financial ruin once the smoke clears, assuming it will.  I can’t believe what a prima donna that man is.  If Robyn isn’t fed up and upset with him for real then I gotta hand it to her she, has some acting chops.

[aimlessbird]

Such a dull, boring and needless episode.

[65mickey]

Maybe by the time this was filmed Robyn had begun to realize that she had lost the Vegas house probably the nicest house that she has ever lived in. She doesn't want to invest a ton of money on a down payment in house that she knows they will most likely end up losing when the TLC money stops. Oh wait on second thought these morons don't think about the consequences of their poor financial decisions.

Exactly. Who buys land without checking zoning and power and water and sewage? And I'm thinking, just like you, that they should have been putting their time and money into getting those essentials done. If they all weren't so goddamned entitled and selfish and really wanted to be together they could have plunked down some double wides till they could afford to build.

And btw Robin, you miserable bitch, your God has a lot more important things to do than finding you a 6 bedroom rental. You are beyond insufferable. Jeez. You are the reason your girls are such a mess.

[NotinKansasanymore]

An upper middle class married white woman with five healthy children has the ability and financial means to purchase a seven bedroom $900,000 mansion is on my tv saying, “I can’t believe God would let this happen to me”

Girl you need to check yourself!!!

If you wanted a rental so bad dry you entitled tears of elitist woes, and have two of your children share a room!!!

 

[Jeanne222]

Well that was hard to watch!

Why doesn't kody back off and let Robyn have her rental dream that's never going to happen?   Maybe it's costing so dam much because she wants SEVEN bedrooms!  Who does she think she is...Kim Kardashian West???

If I was kody I'd have a nice trailer parked out on the property with Robyn 's name on it!

Welcome home!!

[taragel]

"I COULD HAVE STAYED IN LAS VEGAS AND SAVED A FORTUNE!"

No frakking kidding, Genius. Everyone was just extra stupid and ridiculous tonight. Kody and Robyn deserve each other. She is so extra. All these tears when apparently they have the money (or TLC does) to buy near-million-dollar homes. PUKE.

And why did it take them so long to figure out they need PLUMBING and all that shit planned out before they can build?! Not two brain cells amongst them all to rub together.

[DanaMB]

For all the crying Robyn does, there’s a huge lack of tears. 🙄

Omg.  Robyn and her “small earnest money”.  Yeah. Tell that to sellers.  What a joke.

Robyn thoroughly annoyed the crap out of me this week...and Yeah I know they are minors, but I also find DAYUNARORANBRIANNA just as smug and entitled as their mother. Her tears and BS just rubbed me so wrong. Who are you to think you and "your kids" deserve so much?? I found her dramatics and tears disgusting this episode.

I wanted to punch Kody through the TV when he made the comment about not moving Robyn's kids out of their school district...Really? It was fine though to make Christine and Janelle's kids miserable with the move to Flagstaff, but Robyn's precious brood can't be stressed out with a new school district. 

Janelle said she wished she could have been the type of Mom that Madison is...Uhm Janelle you still have children in the home. Stop posting Strive posts while sitting on your ripped up recliner. 

Kody screaming "I could have stayed in Vegas" Oh really, you thought moving to another state with no homes and buying a huge plot of land with no utilities, surveying, or anything done was a good idea?? Now you are worried about the facts of the situation. Uuuugh

 

 

 

 

[hnygrl]

Who would’ve thought I’d be agreeing with KODY??? Sheesh....

From my viewpoint, Robyn is soooooo used to getting any and everything she wants when she wants it, HOW she wants it, even if it meant destroying the lives of 10-plus kids, costing the family multiple millions of unnecessary dollars, that she just cannot fathom not getting her way in this too. She just will. Not. Let. This. Go! 
 

Damn show....making me feel pity for KODY. KODY! 

[itsadryheat]

Robin is pathetic. Acting like a spoiled brat. Do all plyg kids get their own room or just mother of the year Robin's? I had to share a room with the beast know as my sister, my two brothers as well. We never had a vote where my parents chose to buy a house. Friggin snowflakes. This crap we are watching does nothing to promote anything positive about this cringey lifestyle. Robin is out Meri'ing Meri.

What is the plan for when Janelle or Meri have to suddenly move again? Christine apparently Is the only one with sense. 
 

“Our kids will be homeless.” Because they certainly can’t move in with their sister wives in the meantime.

[suomi]

WTF, Robyn's ego! She expects total strangers to bend to her desires. She seriously wants someone who is selling their home, obviously for good reasons of their own, TO RENT IT TO HER FOR 24 MONTHS INSTEAD. Fuck the seller's plans, their needs, their timeline. Hey, maybe they've been prayin' for a buyer! 

Then, she's sittin' there on national TV saying loud and clear that her earnest money is a ploy. Earnest money takes a seller's home off the market (which may cause them to lose opportunities for legitimate offers) and it signals that your intention is honorable. She's saying on national TV that her earnest money is just a game she wants and expects to play with a stranger's property and financial state and time. WT everlovin' F? 

Also, Robyn is a straight up hatchet face. 

Kody said they need to move into the "rental," if that gets approved, by July 26. Meri is told to evacuate in next week's episode and that was July 23/24. Tonight Maddie said she is due in 2 months; Evie was born August 20, on Maddie's due date.

Shelby must be the only realtor in Flagstaff, AZ, because here she is again.  Mona's yesterday's news.  Janelle should have gotten her AZ real estate license just to cash in on the buyer's commission or rental agent fees.  

Dad's the Man, because King Sol's shirt said so and he wore it for at least two days.

Also, Aspyn's move to Lehi seems like preparation for polygamy.  Christine takes the opportunity to say that they could never move back to Utah, since they sued the State.  And, despite its being a mainstay in millenia of ancient civilizations, her hummus is the best.

agreed. I am watching this upstanding woman talk about keeping earnest money low, so they can walk away, back out of a deal.  Its crazy.  She talks about betraying the family and using possible building money for her down payment. How on earth does she not take into account how many thousands of dollars they have squandered renting these huge self-indulgent rentals for years?

Janelle rented a modest home.  Christine doesn't have a bedroom for every kid.  She purchased a home. they seem  to be the only ones living within her means.  Don't get me started on Meri's wasteful rentals. 

[bonniep]

Can we talk about Christine all of the sudden being ok with moving back to Utah??? I thought she never ever wanted to be back in Utah? She didn’t feel safe in Utah? Now that Aspen is there it’s great again??!! 
 

Who doesn’t figure out a living situation before they have to be out of their home in 29 days? This entire episode is insanity. How is Kody’s being “so wrapped up in buying” any different than Robyn being so wrapped up in renting? So it’s ok for you not to budge but it’s not ok for him? 

[SuzWhat]

Nothing closes my vag faster than Kody’s beady-eyed, dramatic talking head close ups. How in the world has he convinced multiple women to procreate with him?  Tonight’s were exceptionally dramatic and beady-eyed. Years ago someone said he looked like a shark and that is still spot on. 

[suomi]

We know that IRL they bought a house plus the adjoining acreage. There's going to be holy hell to pay when the hillbilly finds out that god decided not to provide her with a 6-bedroom rental. That reveal cannot happen soon enough to suit me.

This season is slowly getting better. It's mostly painful along the way but we're finally getting somewhere.

And didn't she tell Kody to hesh up about changing schools so the kids (plural) wouldn't have anxiety attacks (plural)? M'kay.

Christine gets more conceited and dramatic with every passing minute. She is really, really impressed with her thoughts (cough) and the sound of her own voice and how she looks on camera. 

[65mickey]

The value of renting a 4 bedroom home vs buying 6-7 bedrooom home is that they will lose any amount of down payment that they pay up front to purchase if the home goes into foreclosure.  Even if they put down 5% on a $900,000 home they willl lose $45,000 and if they put down 10% they will lose $90,000.  It is mind boggling how these people keep getting these huge mortgages especially with their not so perfect credit ratings. Maybe Robyn has some inkling of what may happen to the equity from her Vegas home that she was so upset about several episodes ago.

None of this is computing for me either.  We’re literally being fed a different line every episode.  It started with the beginning of last season—we have to get out of the Vegas homes and into Flagstaff before the school year begins—doesn’t matter why, we just have to leave.  Didn’t the same sort of reason apply to Lehi (always with the siren in the background)?  That they had to flee, like Kristallnacht was coming?  

So they move hundreds of miles away, without selling any of the old houses (or even putting half of them on the market), so that they can purchase a piece of property that has no sewage or power, and suddenly everyone is either renting or buying, and they all live at least 15 minutes from each other.  The kids all started new schools.

Meri had to move twice.  Now Robyn has to move, because the lease she was in allowed the house to get sold out from under her.  Now there are—as Kody says—no rentals available, but what he means is that there are no rentals specific to Robyn’s needs available, which is a totally different animal, and then they have a teary conversation and Kody makes a “big ask” of the seller, and...”next week, on Sister Wives”? 

There is clearly something they are not telling us.  First of all, I’ve seen Robyn give birth in a bed with no epidural, with her parents taking pictures of her vagina, and she didn’t really flinch, but now she’s crying to the point of hyperventilation that she might have to buy a house before they can build?  She knows serfdom is over, right?  Like, you buy the land, the land doesn’t buy you?  And you can start looking for new buyers as soon as the ink on the closing papers is dry?

And Kody, man, what were you, a 16 year old boy with braces and glasses asking the prettiest senior girl  to prom in some John Hughes movie when you called up the seller “Craig” with your “big ask”?  Even “Craig” seemed freaked out by that call, which probably went on interminably, as “Craig” just kind of hung up on him at the end.  What’s so “big” about an “ask”?  If I walked into the Chinese restaurant and I wanted them to serve me a bowl of pasta with red sauce, I wouldn’t get all girly and giggly and ass-kissy.  I’d ask if they could do it, they’d say no, and we’d all move on.  Huh.

Ugh, me too!  Like I said in the past, I’m never going to get over what they did to Gabe, so this one rubs extra raw.  Nothing in that scene made sense.  Kody was saying the house was in a different school district.  Why did he take Robyn there if it was, and he had no intention of moving her kids’ school district (I find it really disturbing that she keeps referring to their kids as her kids when she’s around Kody)?  Only upon Robyn digging her feet in, did Kody start talking about getting “a variance” from the school.

 I don’t know exactly what a variance is, but I think they were intending to commit fraud all along by pretending the kids lived with Meri, Janelle or Christine, whichever one(s) lived within the school district.  What I do know is that Robyn and Kody need to get on the same parenting page with ‘their’ kids ASAP.  I have a feeling Kody would have no bones about ripping them out of yet another school, and Robyn might rather literally be homeless (as long as she can cry about it and blame Kody)  if it meant keeping her kids at their schools.  The fact that they argue about these issues that are directly affecting the kids while at an open house, in front of them, is so gross.  Briana was the one ready to have a panic attack this time.  And WTF was with Kody grabbing Aureolla and forcing her to face him so that she would be on board with the house?  Isn’t she like four?  

I couldn’t believe the groveling Robyn was doing about asking if the earnest money can be low.  That is a bad faith negotiation if I ever saw one.  Ok, so let’s say the earnest money was lowered to $20k.  She would be fucking willing to walk away from $20k just so that she can rent, because that’s what she wants to do?  You pay that Victoria‘ s Secret bill yet, toots?

Janelle said she wished she could have been the type of Mom that Madison is...Uhm Janelle you still have children in the home. Stop posting Strive posts while sitting on your ripped up recliner. 

Seriously sad.  If Janelle were on Arrested Development, she’d be labeled a “stay in bed mom.”  Yes, we all heard the serious music (the music on this show—I can write a whole page on that) about Janelle Going To Work, but I think we have a pretty good idea of where she spent the other 16 hours of the day.  

A few asides:

• If the idea that the wives could never ever, ever all live under the same roof again, because they were afraid of hearing Kody come home from another date with another woman, why hasn’t it been floated that Robyn and Meri live together in one house and Christine and Janelle move in together temporarily, while they have their ‘housing crisis’?  Meri and Janelle don’t have sexy time with him, Meri could help Robyn raise Robyn’s (not Kody’s) five kids, and I doubt that Janelle would foist the child rearing of Gabe and Savannah on Christine, which we all theorized was Christine’s most major fear of living together again.  Why can’t they pretend they’re trying to make ends meet?
• Was there an episode—they all seem to blend together to me now—that Robyn said the house would have to have six bedrooms, or did she suggest that’s what she wanted, but would be willing to go along with three if that was what the renting market would yield?  Three bedrooms would work fine temporarily.  One for Kody and Robyn, one for Aurora and Briana, one for Sol and Aur, and Dayton lives like a big boy outside of the home.  Has this concept even been touched upon, or it it all glossed over as in, “no rentals in Flagstaff”?
• Ok, so it’s fairly obvious to everyone that Robyn and Kody pretty much live monogamously with Robyn’s kids now, right?  Aside from Robyn, the last time any of the wives had significant face time with Kody was last season when Christine and Kody took Ysabel to the doctor numerous times.  I remember the quaint days of each wife getting her own special trip on her birthday.  I don’t foresee even Galveston on the horizon now.  How do they let this happen?  
• I still don’t understand why they didn’t stay in Vegas until their homes sold, so that they would have the capital to build on Coyote Pass.  This has not been explained once.  Even if the mortgages ballooned and they had to pay $15k a month on each house, they still had to pay that, regardless of whether they were living there until the homes had a buyer who closed.  What was the point of walking away before they were ready?  What if the mortgages in LV had ballooned to a million dollars a month each?  How is the solution to move out while still having to maintain that home’s mortgage?  Because, as I see it, now you’re in for a million plus.  This thing only goes up, it doesn’t go down, until you are alleviated of those mortgages.  Just moving away doesn’t accomplish that, unless they’re on the lam (season 12, anyone?). But without getting free and clear of the Vegas properties, you’re just doubling your burden.  Unless they are doing some major swindling on the side, which I’m sure they are, because none of this has ever been explained to us.  If they couldn’t afford to build on Coyote Pass and move right in from Vegas, then, yes, as other posters have said, that is where the “temporary’ double-wides come in.  
• Christine is super envious of Aspyn’s life?  Christine, it’s called monogamy.  You should try it some time.  Also, I thought I could possibly go the rest of my life without seeing Aspyn guffaw so hard that she literally loses her balance and keels over...yet we got it again this episode.  What kind of tick is that, and why has no one yet corrected it?
• Why does Maddie seem to be so keen on having her baby at home?  She’s not polygamous, and she seemed to be suffering so much last time.  They even had to stop filming for awhile because she “lost it.”  Doesn’t she know how much more comfortable a hospital can make her?
• Why didn’t Kodouche, whose wife clearly didn’t want or need him around as she oh-so-slowly wrapped tchotchkes in orange bubble wrap while she hissed at him, go with either Christine or Janelle to visit his children?  What is wrong with this man?
• Robyn looked really, really pregnant in last night’s episode, but not in the talking heads.  Was she on some kind of prednisone or something back then?  Her entire head and abdomen was swollen something fierce.  Wonder what that was about.   Maybe instead of Tweeting their sunshine and roses bullshit, Robyn couldn’t have Tweeted why she looks at 30 lbs thinner in her talking heads?

They are hiding so much that is going on.  If they weren’t hiding, this would make a lick of sense.  They can still theoretically build on Coyote Pass if Robyn and Kody were to buy a house, since Christine already bought a house, right?  But Robyn kept insisting to us and anyone who would listen that she is cryink because if she bought a home, it would set back the dream of Coyote Pass.  Well...she wants to sign a two year lease on the home she rents, so she knows it’s going to be at least 24 months before Coyote comes to Pass (at which time it will be Coyote Passé), and there’s not a problem with that, but there would be this cataclysmic thunderclap from the heavens if she bought?  People flip houses in under two years all the freaking time.  What, exactly, is the difference?  

What was also totally abnormal to me was that as soon as Kody decided to call “Craig” and ask him if they could lease the home instead of buying, Kody immediately bought into all of Robyn’s bullshit, hook, line and sinker and said he would so much rather rent, and he will pay any price “Craig” puts on the table for rent, even if it’s exorbitant, because renting would be so much better for the faaamily, and it would move up moving to Coyote Pass significantly.  Da fuq is going on here?  Kody just spent the last three episodes as a zealous advocate for the purchase of a home.  The narrative just isn’t stacking up.  Something is rotten in Arizona.

I know these are all immature, stunted people, but Robyn crying at the end and saying, vis a vis the home purchase, she’ll say “sure” but she won’t say “yes,” was about the most babyish display I’ve ever seen from a Brown. And they have three kids under 10. I didn’t know a functioning adult could be so oblivious to the facts as they are happening, not how you want them to happen.
