I think if Andrei had Libby to himself he would have her barefoot, pregnant and supporting him all at the same time.  In his original season he was definitely an "I am man and I am head of the household and you as my wife should obey me at all costs" type of personality.

Again, making allowances for scripting which might negate everything we've seen and heard, I've wondered the same thing.  Would he be working if he didn't have a wealthy in-law family to provide for him and his wife and daughter?  One reason I think this is all a setup for our benefit is that Libby's sisters presumably could hook her up with childcare, so Libs could keep working, too, and Andale wouldn't be the only qualified care-giver for their little girl.

He finished truck-driving school and then decided he didn't want to do that for a living, a situation I find pretty suspicious.  Sure, he wouldn't have his choice of when and where he worked at first, but when you start working at just about any new job you don't have much control over your work and how you do it.  His Moldavan friends and family all seem fairly astonished that he is staying home rather than out earning a living, as would be the case in any manly man's marriage (cf. Ash), so I'm guessing he's culturally prone to being in a traditional 1950s type marriage.  Without Libby's family supporting them, would this all have been different?  And not worth a penny to TLC?

More proof, imo, of massive scripting.

I keep forgetting about this:  Did anybody else notice, in the first scene inside the church where Libby and Andale were married, there is a large plastic shopping bag from like a Target just behind the pulpit or stand or whatever you call that columny sort of thing the officiants were in front of?  It was there for one scene, then poof!

I think Libby and her family are ridiculous but the truth is when they are in America her family is all they have (do none of these people have friends?).  It would be much better to try and get along than to continually keep battling one another - she also needs to give that lecture to her own family.

The problem I have with Libby and Chantal is they run back to their families and tell them everything that is going on....

From wikidiff.com:

"As nouns the difference between lectern and pulpit is that lectern is a stand with a slanted top used to support a bible from which passages are read during a church service while pulpit is a raised platform in a church, usually enclosed, where the minister or preacher stands to conduct the sermon."

Many modern churches don't even have a traditional pulpit.  The pastor stands behind a lectern and kind of meanders around making eye contact with everyone.

Larissa-ee: She looks like Michael Jackson. I don't think she looks *bad* but she definitely looks fake, and shouldn't get ANYMORE work done. If she doesn't stop she will look bad.

Hope she's satisfied and stops getting surgery. But I don’t think she’ll ever be fully happy with herself!

I don’t think Debbie will let Colt grow up and be a man. He needs to move out. 

But then I’m afraid Colt does not have intelligence to get his own place. He has no backbone.

 

Kalani and Asuelu: I really hope they call it quits. I wanted them to break up on their first episode of this season. Why did he walk away and go straight into the house and have Kalani take two crying boys out of the car by herself! He's no good as husband, father OR provided. And he doesn't care about his kids health. What a jerk.

 

Libby and Andrrrrrei: I think Andrei was sincere in his apology to Chuck. You could see it in his eyes & put focus on Libby, get along for her & baby, not himself. I don’t think he’s a saint and free of fault but he tries and he deserves credit for the times he does. 

Her family esp. Charlie, Chuck & Jen are inappropriate, nosy & pushy & have intentionally pushed Andrei's buttons esp about past.  We all have difficult things in past that we don't want to talk about!! Lord knows no one in Elizabeth’s family ever admit when they are wrong or have messed up.

 

I’m excited for the tell all next week!

I'm not criticizing anyone, but I read a lot of comments here saying someone is "gaslighting" someone else.  What is the definition of gaslighting on this forum?  If seems to just be synonymous with "lying".  I always think of gaslighting to be closer to what happened in the movie, so I looked it up and found this, "to manipulate someone by psychological means into questioning their own sanity."  I don't really see that happening here and I see that term used a lot for almost every couple.  A lot of lying, yes, but I don't really see anyone trying to make someone else question their own sanity.  Well, maybe my sanity, but that's a separate issue.

"Lectern" was the word I couldn't think of.  In my church (and I suspect in most churches), the pulpit is where the preaching (sermon) comes from; the lectern ("reading place") is where the reading of the scripture comes from.

I think it's funny that naming the church furniture correctly has excited interest while the fact of a disappearing Target bag in such a formal church--maybe a cathedral--apparently has aroused no interest at all.

@Johann, I agree.  Lying is lying but so many people do it to suit their purposes any more that nobody wants to own it. Gaslighting has malicious intent which a lot of lies may or may not have.    
Based on personal experience, Asuelu makes my blood boil when he is caught in a lie and his response, not an excuse, is that he doesn’t want Kalani getting angry with him.  That’s not an excuse and his lies are manipulative.  Is he smart and devious enough to gaslight Kalani? I think so.

Yeah, they are trying to be manipulative, but are they trying to make the other person think they are going crazy?  I guess that's the part I'm getting hung up on.  You can lie to me and make me believe your lies.  You can make excuses to try to convince me you're lies are justified.  That might make me gullible, but it doesn't make me think I am going insane.  I understand your frustration with Asuelo, though.  Manipulative and self-serving, but not gaslighting.

Hey Colt, your mother would be less involved if YOU didn't share every detail about everything with her, and learned the word no.  He barely kept Jess a secret, then he let Deb invite herself to Brazil.  Just say no.

And I actually did lol when Deb declared she was done with the laundry and whatnot.  Somehow I doubt Colt figured that into the equation.

Even outside church people always mix up podium and lectern and say that someone stood at the podium.  You stand on the podium.  You put your notes on the lectern.

Kalani and Aseulu chose to have two kids, they need to figure out how to care for them without roping in grandma, who may want to do her own thing now that she raised her own children.

This kitchen counter is giving me a case of the itchies.

What Debby is doing to Colt right now....I think this is gaslighting

"I've never treated you like a child, I always treat you like a man" which is basically telling him that what he is saying is crazy and he is just wrong.  "You asking me to treat you like an adult male is an affront to me, and now I'm offended so you shouldn't be asking for anything because YOU'RE the one at fault, NOT ME"  "If you want me to stop being mad you're going to have to apologize to me for something I was doing wrong"

We don’t have a tell all pt 1 thread, do we?  
Angela, the story about having an abscess and not being able to get air on it is just ridiculous.  
Michale, I hope you’ve learned to keep 2 phones and turn the other off when you talk to Angie.  You need a baby mama now!


Larissa, you really do look like a hooker.  Even strippers have better plastic surgery, and dress better, than you.

Ericee, you don’t get to speak.  You are the equivalent of Kalani’s boy babies hanging off her teat.  


Asuelu, if Kalani doesn’t stuff you in a suitcase and ship you to ANY deserted island, I will do the job for her.  You are the king of Leaving Town.  Such a bad dad.

Syngin, You finally did it. You had a bad hair day captured on camera. I was already to count how many times you flipped and fluffed your hair but your segment must come next week. I’ll be waiting.

Tania, I admire that you still keep hoping that you’re going to get that Malibu Barbie dream house. But you’re gonna have to save your own allowance to go buy it. Syngin is too busy buying beer. Ps, get a bra and wear it.

Poor Debbie, she was certainly lacking in the Mammary Department at the Tell All! Libby was covered up, but everyone else had the girls out on display. And Colt wasn't wearing his signature crooked glasses? 

Larissa attempt to channel Kylie Jenner's look is absolutely ridiculous. I used to think she was kind of ditzy but harmless but in the Tell All she was downright nasty. She hurled insults and cursed at Colt, Debbie, Syngin and Andrei. And dopey Eric just sat there and made no attempt to rein her in. 

Is Family Libby STILL harping on the reason Andrei left Moldova? 

It looks like Asuelu is the first "flounce off" of the night. I wasn't surprised that he was there, after all it's a paid performance and he probably promised the money to his mother. 

Angela has some big nasty looking scrape on her arm and she's wearing a mask due to a dental abscess?  Sure...I wonder what her "doing something that Michael wouldn't approve of" is going to be. 

Edited to add: Is Angela having her forearm tattoo removed? At first I thought maybe so, but now I see that the scrape is on her outer arm and the tattoo is on the inside. image.png.922ce049a7bc48767dda121649688c33.png

Increasingly, Chuck will make it more and more clear that Andrei will have to pay with his pride if he wants to stay on Chuck's paycheck.  Chuck wasn't wrong, if someone drops 30k, you should thank them.  But, it seems like Chuck was "appreciation" for his ongoing support and that means kissing his ass and being nice to him.

I just had a brilliant idea.  

If Michael just had a baby with some random woman than next time Angela visits Africa, Michael can just put the baby in a reed basket, take Angela for a nice picnic by a nice quiet little stream and have the baby float down the stream in the basket just like baby Moses in the bible

Angela will see it as a sign from god. I totally think it could work.
