Wait....Arguing about vehicles? Tell me it isn't so.

Next thing you'll tell me that they got off to a late start.

Or had car problems.

[Grifter Lives]

C'mon.  Which one of them is supposedly a runner?  As if the one pair of running shoes makes packing a car impossible.  

Also, I didn't think that the Browns are friends with the Dargers.  I think these grifters are trying to capture the halo effect off of Joe Darger.  He was really boots-on-the-ground for the protests, etc..

Maybe they'll visit Aspyn and Mitch or possibly Mykelti and Tony in Utah, or maybe not, since they're Christine's daughters.  (Maybe they're ditching Christine in Utah, and she doesn't know it yet.)

[smarty]

Robyn always gets the front seat next to Kody.  And it is Christine's car - so shouldn't she get the front seat?

[Chicklet]

Can you imagine this crew coming to visit you in your home? I'd pretend I wasn't home.

[LucyEth]

Why are these people still together, for over 25 years they have hated each other.

I'm trying to imagine three of them fitting into a backseat.

[Armchair Critic]

Kody makes my blood pressure rise just watching him, what a jackass.

[Ms.Lulu]

It is obvious that the 5 of them don't like to be together.

[Grifter Lives]

Robyn's minivan just happened to have no child seats installed.

[Armchair Critic]

Kody took the time to do his little spiral curls, is that why they are running late?

I've been trying to figure out Kodog's angle with this trip. He wants OUT of polygamy, so I'll go on the record as predicting that, on the ride home, Kodak will have a Come-to-Robyn-Jesus moment, and realize just how unfair polygamy is to the women...and will question his commitment to the Principle. For the women.

[LucyEth]

He certainly loves himself.  Maybe he’s sniffing around for wife #5.  He needs more children 

[smarty]

I love Robyn calling out Kody for not wanting to drive the minivan because its not cool

What?????

[Madding crowd]

Does Kody think acting like a vicious jerk is good TV? Or is mad because TLC won't pay for just the Kody and Robyn show so he is forced to be with the wives he hates? I don't think any of the wives were acting bad, just him. 

[Chicklet]

But if he GETS out of polygamy then there goes the tv show and his source of income and he's screwed on prariedog pasture or whatever they call it.

[Chris Knight]

Did they say how long this drive to Utah is supposed to be  ?

[LucyEth]

Christine can’t stand Robyn and Meri and Janelle can’t stand each other.  All 4 hate Kody 

[For Cereals]

I still don’t know why Meri needs a mansion since we’re revisiting old storylines.

Interminable.

Regardless of distance.

Christine looks washed out in her talking heads

Someone suggested on another thread that they could get several more seasons with a show like Pillow Talk with Janelle, Meri and Christine watching and commenting on old episodes.  Robyn and Kody could be seen trying to get jobs to pay for her mansionette.  Or something.  I think Janelle is really worried about finances and she is behind what passes for plots--like this trip to see Joe.

[Ms.Lulu]

Robyn is 42.  She really isn't going to have more kids.

And they don't seem to be able to afford IVF.

Is this during COVID because I’d rather be called...

[Madding crowd]

I can't believe Janelle is talking about how great it is to married to your sister's husband. I guess one advantage would be your kids would be siblings and cousins! No way does that make sense, it seems predatory. People can also find their own husband instead of lusting after their sister's husband Janelle.

[lgprimes]

Robyn is in denial- Kody could still pick up a younger model and have more kids

[Chicklet]

I think Janelle lives in an alternative universe. Talking about how great it would be to marry your sisters husband and we see how well that turned out when she married her sister in laws husband. Yea it's working out really well for you Janelle.

[Armchair Critic]

I seem to remember the TLC episode of the Dargers showed he had his wives working out every morning. Looks like Joe has given up on the workouts. Also didn't he marry sisters? Sorry but I don't like any of these people.

[Grifter Lives]

I think that his speech from last week could be read that way.  He said polygamy was hard on women, but he loves his life, except when the wives' complaining brings him down.  And, he wants to marry someone for love, not obligation.  (He is no longer in love with Robyn.  He loves the pursuit.)

Ooh, maybe a Darger daughter!

Yep, they just said two of the wives are sisters.

Agree. Such a bizarre thing for JanellE to say, and she knows it.

Two of the wives are twins, one of whom was married to someone else before marrying Joe 10 yrs after her sister did.

Joe Darger married his wife's twin, after the twin divorced or her husband died.  And, I think he married one of the later wives on the same day as an earlier one.

Joe got a gut.  The wives have aged less than the Brown women.

Janelle and Meri were sister in laws?

[riverblue22]

So the skinny wife gets the front seat?

[Chicklet]

Yes she was first married to Meri's brother. Keeping things in the family yanno.

Yes, Janelle was originally married to Meri’s brother, that is how she met Kody.

Well, considering Janelle married Kody who was already married to Janelle's former sister in law so in a sense she did marry her sister.  That is the reason I dislike Janelle the most of these women.

Aaaaaah! Yes. That is another angle that I could see Kodog working.

I really wonder where he's goin' with this....

Yes and put the heaviest one all the way in the back in the smallest pop up seat.  Makes no sense.

[LucyEth]

Christine is too jealous to live in one house with everyone.

[For Cereals]

Funny how this family doesn’t need a palace to all live together, just a really big island.

[smarty]

Dargers say deal "dil" too

[Chris Knight]

Cant Christine live on her own and the others all live together  ?

From what I understand she was really attracted to Kody. Can you imagine?! The men in those parts must be slim pickings.

And Janelle's mom married Kody's dad, too. Ugh. 

[Chicklet]

Er Robyn you are the step-mother honey. I know that fact flew over your head. And you aren't the least bit welcoming to the kids.

[Armchair Critic]

I call bullshit on Robyn feeling sadness about being a stepmom.
