Old Ick & Bertie bae are completely perfect for each other!!  They both CRY at the drop of a hat!!  Just look at Dannnnnnielle's face!!  She KNOWS this isn't going to end well.  Finally catching a clue.... DUH!

There is a video out there somewhere of a precious Golden Retriever sitting in the backseat of a car, flanked by two vociferous howling Siberian Huskies.  The Golden gives the sweetest side-eye to each, but maintains that smile against all misery.

I think Dannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnielle has been under Garrick's thumb since she was a teenager.  She's divorced now, with no education, no means of supporting herself and her children.  And isn't she very, very young?  22?  23?

I don't know.  I feel so sorry for her.

Actually, according to the internet, she turned 35 a few weeks ago at the beginning of August.

Perhaps you're thinking of "Other Danielle" who is 22.

Garrick is 38, about to be 39 in October. Yes, I think he and D. have been together a long time, since they were kids. That is probably why she is reluctant to leave him. She doesn't know anything else.

Somebody else asked about the age of their kids. I think they are around Middle school age. 12-13.

They should get the interpreter to become one of the wives. Then they can all communicate without the translation app.

Bonus - she’s cute! Ick is probably already plotting...

Roberta is the boss. There will be no 3rd wife. Ever. 

Boat boy's new house is weird. Who builds a house with a steep driveway incline like that? It's like walking up a mountain to get to the front door. And for cripes sake, put a backsplash in that kitchen! With all his money he sure had that home built on the cheap. I'm in the market for a new house so I notice these things.

It didn't take long to brainwash Danielle 2.0. Not long at all. She's 22, she will be pregnant and popping out babies very soon and according to her she doesn't like staying home so looks like Nicky will be running a daycare before he knows it. Or he will convince the breadwinners to hire a nanny so he can go off and think.

Because Insipidian’s kids aren’t confused enough, let’s get them yet another mother figure.

Where is their mother? I know she split after Squeaky came along. But does she share custody of the kids? Have they said and I missed it?

Whenever Roberta starts whining about Garrick being with another woman, it reminds me of the banner of a play I once saw outside Manhattan’s Beacon Theatre: “Your Husband is Cheating on us.”  I loved how Dannielle just casually mentioned that there was no intimacy, “just kissing.” Some people would consider kissing more intimate than sex.   

So, Nick doesn’t work because he stays home and read up on Math and Science, to impart knowledge on their children.  Good to know.  Wonder if that is before or after he peruse porn sites.

I think that there was a millisecond of a smile - Duper's Delight.  Then, she immediately changed to her sad, hound dog face.  I am surprised that she didn't cry.  I'm surprised that the translator didn't cry, asking herself why she is there.

Are you kidding?  I'd love that job 😃

Okay, good.  I can handle one more week, but then they need to wrap this up.  I'm only paying attention to the stories with a "Danielle" character.

In non-Danielle segments, they only have Boat Guy and Lil' Marcus, right?

And the hideous Sidian - I'm also watching him, but skipping Boat Boy and Florida crew.  Although I feel misled and disappointed - last week's previews made it look like his kid would object to the Phillipines gal! 😡

I don't remember if she sees them or not, but they live with Sidian and his woman.  What's weird is that his third child has a different mother who wisely keeps her kid at home with her - but that's his middle child 🤔

I think they have mentioned some shared custody but they live mainly with Squeaky and Insipidian.  Insipidian is a wanna be cult leader who lacks the charisma or personality to be one.

Dannielle is 35 years old

Does boat boy really think April can parent children who are a few years younger than them?  He’s and idiot.  Brenda, please stop making that face your chin is constantly scrunched up and full of bumps.

I guess Bert didn’t like the thought that maybe she was not so special after all and just one of the potential crowd.  They are so afraid to lose her that they are letting her dictate the rules and regs.  She is having sex with Ick and he is not allowed to share an innocent kiss with another potential?  Enough with the crying, all they ever do is cry and wipe each other’s tears.  What an annoying trio.

The Nick Davis family  is creepy. Those women are making fools of themselves while his family and friends are likening him to a pimp.  I find them them all repulsive.

Looks like Marcus has landed Chrissy of the Snowden family fame.

Ick's face is so stupid.  He's got his mouth open half the time, and looks like the idiot that he is, not to mention his dumb cowboy outfit.

Garrick makes absolutely no effort to hide the fact that he is utterly besotted with Bert. He's practically elbowing Dannnnnnielle out of the way in every scene. When they all walked into the restaurant he was holding Bert's hand, pulling out her chair, placing her right by his side, and in general treating her like she was a rare, precious object. Dumbass Dannnnnnnielle had to pull out her own chair and sit next to that poor hapless translator. How does she look at herself in the mirror and not see what a sad pathetic doormat she is? She's always red-eyed and miserable looking. She looks so awkward when she tries to join into Ick and Bert's tearful clinches. She sickens me. She allows this! At least the other skeevy creeps in this franchise make an effort to not look like they're playing favorites. (I know, low bar).

Marcus has decided he'll be friends with Bina and Janae.  Great way to protect his ego rather than saying Bina won't let him control her and is dating others and Janae is not interested. 

If Bert actually moves to the US, will they hire a translator?  Otherwise they'll never be able to communicate with anything but tears. However, even with a translator, they could barely communicate.  Of course, they also use intimacy to mean sex and Bert, non-English speaker, understands that the word means more than that. 

Dannielle is finally "seeing some red flags."  We've all seen a parade of people waving red flags since the moment Bert was introduced.

A lot going on in this episode but for some reason, I'm left stuck on Dannielle's outfit for the plane ride home - that little green dress. Brazil to Colorado is one long trip and there is no way that she would be comfortable in that get up for the whole thing. If nothing else, I'd think she would freeze on the plane. I always do and I have a) more body fat than she does and b) wear more clothes.

He scoots over so that his stupid body is touching her at every point possible.  I think it was our #1 husband on this show, Kermit, that commented about keeping that crap (my word, definitely not his) for private moments.  To never be ogling one wife in the company of the other.  He saw it as his duty.  Dddd looked like the backup translator.  And the way he paws all over her…mostly Bert, but Dddd too.  Preening,moving hair strands adjusting straps, removing unseen particles from eyelashes.  Always so delicately and preciously.  Damn!  I want to know that I’m being touched by a man, not groomed by a parakeet!  Yuuu-uk.

What is happening with Sidian? He looks worse every time we see him

I think his dye-job faded.  Sort of lost his shaky hipster look.  Now he appears wan and average.  Not that he was a looker previously, just that the hair color completed his outward presentation.  It told us who he wants to be.  Now he looks like an average guy with no backstory to tell.  Oh, maybe his story is that he fell asleep on the sofa after staking up the tomato plants and his daughters put all of their bracelets and necklaces on him.  Now he has to take them all off before he leaves for his shift at The Waffle House.  We know that’s not what he’s shooting for, so maybe it was all of the salt water.  Now our hipster Jim Jones can get busy with his bottle of Preference.  He knows he’s worth it.

That’s going to be Danielle’s job. They timed it perfectly.

I wonder how gainfully employed she happens to be.  Will she be worth more to the stable to be out in the workplace or at home changing diapers and sharpening Ticonderogas for Nicks missives and essays?  Once she’s “in”, I fear the choice will be made for her.  Hopefully, they’ll at least be gentle enough to help her think that it’s her decision to make.

She's played her cards very well, and is obviously smarter than they are.  It's almost painful to watch.

You know when they get home they will be caring for the kids and cleaning up his messes. He will also get a stay at home wife to be a nanny. This asshole.

He is also going to need his own place. You know, for the thinking and whatnot.  Just a small hip place downtown after they all move to the suburbs. It won't be that much more rent than they're covering now because there are 3 wives, and it will give him a place to audition the fourth and fifth without disturbing them or the baby by coming in in the middle of the night.

Oh dear me - get Dannielle & Garrick some meds, maybe some Prozac, there's way too much emotional lability, it's like they're grieving or something, even when they're not crying the facial grimacing and wincing is just too much.

And that was too much with Garrick and the bombshell packing up in almost their undies, didn't they know the camera crew was there?

All these people are so weird and creepy = triples?  TLC always trying normalise the absurds.

Yes, wasn’t that creative editing! On the preview when Sidian asked Tyrolean (or whatever) if he thought Arielle was a nice person, it made it look like the kid said “nope” when his answer really was “yeah.” For this reason, I’ve learned not to be fooled by the previews or commercials for the upcoming program.

To be honest I can't remember - but at the beginning of this season I think they said Liam was a new name; they definitely said they had moved from where they lived before because they thought the new place would be more accepting.

Liam is Sidian's child.  Liam is their new name.  While the Sidian referred to Liam as transgender and as having chosen the name Liam, I am not certain if Liam uses he/him pronouns or they/them.  I believe at one point they mentioned using they/them.  We will accept either in the forum.  I do not recall the name that Liam was given at birth.  Given that they changed their name to reflect their gender identity, their old name should now not be used unless they choose to do so. 

Regardless of how Liam may have been viewed in the past in regards to gender or their name, we will now use the name Liam and either he/him pronouns or they/them pronouns. This aligns with the GLAAD guidelines which are in line with the site policies.
