S06.E11: Chaos in the Cul-de-Sac

[Granny58]

Whose pictures were removed in order to put Dayunaurorabreanna's pictures with Kody? Christine was forcing a smile for the couch interview when the topic of the drawing came up.

I'm also wondering how they have the money for the pricey watch and diamond necklace.

Oh, wait until next week when they go to Alaska.  I went to Alaska this summer and I want to say - IT WAS FREAKIN' EXPENSIVE!!!!! and that was for 2 people.  

 

"Here we go again with Robyn talking about the kids visiting Jessop like "We don't know how this is going to go"  - I HATE when they keep saying "I was nervous because I didn't know what was going to happen."  Yeah, no kidding.  None of us has a time machine to see into the future.  You're just nervous about (example here), Please.  

 

"Shit, I swear half the time, they are wanting someone to flip, refuse them service so they could sue and make a federal case out of it."  At the very least, you KNOW they're just aching for a confrontation about it, so it can be discussed on the couch about how oppressed they are and love is love and all that.

I haven't even watched this episode yet, but after hearing about that creepy piece of art Robyn had made, her opening tag line seems to have more sinister overtones now: "like we shoulda been together from day one".

 

Yes, but more specifically that SHE "shoulda been with the Kodouche from day one".  Now I think even her dethroning of Meri and her marriage to him is a part of that evil agenda and revisionist history.  In her mind she should have been the "first wife" all along and it looks like she's either convinced Kody of that or is on her way to doing it with stuff like the creepy photo.

 

ETA:  They probably didn't show us the photo she had the artist alter of Meri and Kody's wedding, where she had herself drawn in Meri's place!

The TAG Heuer watch is a bit over the top. The guy has 20 kids, they eat tater tots, and they buy him a watch like that? http://m.ebay.com/itm/180976311573

 

Mr. Snarklepuss is a watch afficionado and he spotted that watch right away.  No offense to anyone who owns one (and this is his opinion as I know nothing about watches), he has said on many occasions that Tag Heuer is a crappy watch that (his words as he's standing right here) appeals to "posers who can't afford a Rolex and want to appear to have more money and class than they really do, but wouldn't know a good watch from a shitty one and would overpay just based on a name, not true class or quality".  And according to him for that price they could have done better to get him a used Rolex DateJust or something.  Interesting.....

 

ETA:  Mr. Snarklepuss swears he's seen Kody wear a much more expensive watch in the past, like a $10,000 watch, but he doesn't remember which one.  Even MORE interesting!

[Snarklepuss]

Wait why is Kody crying over not knowing Robyn's kids when they were little? He is never even with his own little kids. This "portrait" or "pitcher" is proof that they are nuts

 

What got me in that scene is that before Kody came in the room to look at the photos, Robyn said something about him never having seen most of them.  You mean he's been with this woman for 4 years at least and supposedly been a dad to her kids and he's never seen their baby photos until NOW?  Plus he looked really rushed in that scene like it was a major accomplishment to get him to look at the photos at all.  Then suddenly he's turning on the waterworks in front of the camera about not knowing them when they were little - He barely knows them NOW!!!

Sounds like the perfect watch for Kody.

Reminds me of his shitty convertibles.

This just in - Mr. S says that he noticed the watch was not in its original box, which leads him to believe it might be used - Probably bought it at "Pawn Stars", LOL.

[OhioMom]

I only caught the last 10 minutes of this show, and ONLY because I was waiting for 90-Day Fiance to come on....and I have to say...that portrait...now I have just a little more insight into how mentally ill these people are. Which is not a comfortable place to be. 

If I was the bio dad of those kids, I'd be upset, and lawyering up for custody, unless he wants nothing to do with them. I don't really watch the show, so I don't know what bio-dad's story is.  Is Robyn seeking to totally erase him from her kids' memories?  What a bizarre woman.

Lady Grump I agree with you about the cake.you don't have to go to a bakery owned by two gay guys who serve a diverse clientele (it's Vegas after all) to get a plyg cake that looks like it came from any Walmart bakery. But they delivered it to the house with such fanfare. Those guys are angling for a Cake Boss show of their own, but as bakers they are still in the bush leagues

[dugie]

Christine is such a moron. She is so obnoxious and immature. The way she was jumping up and down and sqeeling in front of the cement guy was cringe worthy. She is trying so hard to be in the in crowd (cooty and sobbyn) she is making a fool of herself. Her kids seem more mature than her.

[algebra]

Did anyone notice the back of the watch had a crack in it? At first I thought I saw a scratch, then I thought maybe it was really damaged.

I don't think TAG Heuer sells that watch anymore, I was poking around on their website trying to find it and didn't see it. It's probably vintage. I personally like vintage jewelry for price and quality.

[algebra]

I'd like to run that portrait past some people who have never seen the show and see how many of them think it's Jesus saying "suffer the little children to come into Me"

No wonder Kody loves it

[AmyFarrahFowler]

Also, has anyone else noticed how often Robyn's bedroom is shown since she is the now legal wife? I thought it was supposed to be a sacred love grotto or something?

She's trying so hard to make her marriage work. It's pathetic yet I have so much empathy for her. Christine is headed for a breakdown and we're watching her run, excited and manic, towards a brick wall. A successful, rewarding marriage requires two active partners - not one elated partner and then another who comes around only to store tools in her garage (literal and figurative).

[DakotaJustice]

That portrait is beyond bizarre. Still doesn't make me want to watch the show.

They did the bulk of the filming earlier in the year but just like last season they go back and tweak/add things as social media dictates. They did that after the divorce/wedding got out.

[Sammich63]

The portrait made of Kody and Robyn's three kids is the most disturbing thing I've seen in a while.  I have a blended family and my hubby did try to adopt my son when he was little, but the ex wouldn't give consent.  Even so, I cannot fathom trying to rewrite history with that portrait.  I'm disgusted with all of these adults, especially Robyn!

[egilsdottir]

I haven't watched the episode yet, but after reading your descriptions of the "pitcher", I HAD to see it, so I went to King Kody's Twitter and my god. What a twisted Norman Rockwell nightmare of a "pitcher." I'd hate to wake up in the middle of the night and have that staring back at me.

Note the "pitcher" of Kody that the "artist" used wasn't Kody the way he looks now, but a much younger Kody.

I personally don't understand why people make such a big production over a freaking cake (or why 90 million cake-making shows exist), but it would have been great if the bakery the Browns went to mixed up their order with an order placed for an erotic cake, like a giant dick. Because that's what Kody is.

[laurakaye]

Well, congrats, Sister Wives!!  I usually don't squirm and cringe with second-hand embarrassment until at least 15 minutes into your show.  Last night, you bested that by approximately 14 1/2 minutes.

 

Let's see, of the 264 oddities that jumped out at me, here are the worst (most have already been discussed but if I don't repeat them, my head will explode):

 

Kody in that portrait.  Was HILARIOUSLY awful.  Logan's reaction was perfect - he covered his mouth with his hand in what I can only imagine was an effort to not fall on the ground laughing.

 

Janelle is more giddy and talkative than I have ever seen, and I have been watching this show since the beginning.  Lately she's just a chipper, happy gal, isn't she?  I wonder why?  Could it be because KARMA has come a-callin' to Mean Meri?  I can think of no other reason.  That's the sickest part of this twisted excuse for a family - the harder one wife falls, the higher the others can rise.

 

Could Meri have BEEN less underwhelmed at the necklace Da'unAuroraBreanna gave her?  She could barely muster a smile.

 

Christine needs to back off a little on the happy juice.  She is working way too hard to smooch Robyn's behind and it's just embarrassing to watch.

 

I noticed that halfway through the show, the wifely seating assignment during the couch sessions changed.  Christine was next to Meri.  I wonder if Robyn, Janelle and Christine had to draw straws to determine who had to sit next to the sourpuss.

 

And mostly - Robyn, MAKE UP YOUR MIND.  The kids get adopted.  Then, they are shown leaving for a two-week visit with their REAL dad.  They are shown returning, after apparently having had a good time.  Then they give Kody a watch that says "Dad."  You can't portray your first husband as a monster, when all other signs point to him being quite the opposite.  And I cannot imagine his anger at seeing Robyn unveil that stupid portrait basically substituting him with Kreepy Kody.  Oh my goodness, those kids are going to need some serious therapy, and soon.

 

Now off to "LIKE" everyone's comments!

[Juliegirlj]

I really wish I could unsee that portrait- it is the stuff nightmares are made from! Robyn just may have pregnancy psychosis, because that is one of the most delusional, creepy things I have ever seen. Janelle brought in the cake like she was bearing the sacrificial lamb, and Robyn said oh gee, thanks guys.... Speaking of Janelle- did she sample a few dozen cakes before choosing, because she is getting way big again- to the point where I bet she is having "fat girl problems" in the bathroom. They lie and spin things all day but one thing I do believe is that Meri is clearly devasted by what what she did and the consequences of it (catfish). Not sure when they filmed this episode, but Robyn looks so big- it wouldn't surprise me if she gives birth to that spawn this month.

[laurakaye]

 

Also, has anyone else noticed how often Robyn's bedroom is shown since she is the now legal wife? I thought it was supposed to be a sacred love grotto or something?

 

I cannot stop laughing!

[laurakaye]

My DVR cut out partway through the previews for next week - is Meri actually going to discuss the catfish fiasco with the other wives?

[algebra]

Perhaps what we are seeing is the result of having a TV production crew a part of your lives, where reality can be rewritten, the scenes reshot, and reality can be whatever you want to make it. You just invent stuff, and it becomes real. And the longer you do a reality show, the more out of touch with reality you become, until the whole mess collapses like the Duggars, the Gosselins, Bruce Jenner, into a mass delusion, and is obliterated when reality comes crashing back in.

It's probably another fake out. Yeast infection? Ingrown toenail?

[LakeGal]

It is interesting that Robyn now allows the cameras in the bedroom.  That was such a big No No before.  But this season we continually see Kody at Robyn's house having meals with the family.  He is showing her affection in front of the others.  It really does seem more like he is married to Robyn and the others are just sisters not wives anymore.  

I thought it was appropriate that we saw the creepy portrait on Halloween weekend. 

[CofCinci]

And mostly - Robyn, MAKE UP YOUR MIND. The kids get adopted. Then, they are shown leaving for a two-week visit with their REAL dad. They are shown returning, after apparently having had a good time. Then they give Kody a watch that says "Dad." You can't portray your first husband as a monster, when all other signs point to him being quite the opposite. And I cannot imagine his anger at seeing Robyn unveil that stupid portrait basically substituting him with Kreepy Kody. Oh my goodness, those kids are going to need some serious therapy, and soon.

The children have to be so confused by the whole situation. The money that Christine and Kody are spending on their bullshit therapy sessions would be better used getting the children counseling.

[DakotaJustice]

The portrait idea was really, uh, out there. But the artist? Wow.... That's a heck of a beautiful portrait job!

I dunno about that - the eyes are seriously creeping me out.

Actually the entire portrait is creeping me out.

That thumbs up does not seem like something Dayton would do.

[Harperlee1]

The portrait was a creative idea and the artist was really talented, so at first I was like, "that's really cool." But the more I thought about it, the more it bothered me. I just thought it was incredibly disrespectful to the kids' father. I get that Kody is technically their father now, but they have a biological father who is still in their lives. That baby moment between Kody and kids didn't exist, as Robyn said, because they had a father for whom it did exist. They're taking that very special time from him by super-imposing Kody into his place. I'm not a Robyn hater like a lot of you, but I think that idea should have stayed in her head. She reminds me of Chelsea (TM2).. wish all you want, but you didn't have kids with the guy you're with now, she/they have a father. Just seems really wrong to me.

[Twopper]

 

They probably didn't show us the photo she had the artist alter of Meri and Kody's wedding, where she had herself drawn in Meri's place!

That wouldn't surprise me in the least.

 

I am glad I was not the only one appalled by by the revisionist history.  It reminded me of my classes in communism in high school (yep, I am ancient) where we discussed how the communists would alter the pictures in history books. The picture of Kody as a young father to the three he "adopted" was very creepy.  I actually wonder if the kids in years to come will find it not only strange, but cruel. I don't know that the children understand adoption very well.  I understand they get the "good" aspect of it as being "real" Browns, but I think they not understand that it totally breaks them off from their real dad.  Except this is non-reality reality tv, so it looks as though they have some sort of weird arrangement to remain in their bio dad's life. 

 

This family tree imagery is getting on my nerves; I guess that's what Christine was trying to achieve with her wet cement. I guess she got everyone in time. What I missed was where the original hand in cement was done--I thought they said Montana or Wyoming or some place other than Utah, which is what I expected.

 

Also I cannot watch a complete episode of this so I was channel surfing a bit; when I returned the kids were returning from a trip and now I find out it was Robyn's kids who had been to see their recently replaced father.   I worry about her children.  I can sort of understand their wanting to be Browns.  This is not like many families where two divorced parents each with children marry.  Robyn's kids are thrown in with 3 more families that are pretending to be one happy family and probably did feel a lot like outsiders.  

 

I can't remember how old Robyn so I can't figure out if she is young enough to have two more children after this pregnancy. Sometimes I get the feeling Kody wants 20 children so he can have one more than JimBob Duggar.  Now that I mention this I might actually watch an episode of the Brown family meeting the Duggars.

 

I was actually creeped out by all five adults.  Janelle seemed hyper --or at least for her.  Christine seems to be trying too hard, and Meri.... I don't for a minute believe Meri came up with the divorce idea on her own.  She may think she did, but I am sure there was a lot of strong hints and suggestions from Robyn and Kody who didn't want to be seen as the ones who pushed the divorce idea because they knew the viewers would find that to be repulsive.  And as I said the revisionist family history they were all celebrating lowered my opinion of them even further.

 

Oh, and I totally forgot to mention the blessing over the children. Were they not blessed by their own dad already? oh, I forgot, he doesn't count anymore. 

[Harperlee1]

Seriously. Can you just pretend to be happy? For the kids' sake? She has such a flat affect, it's uncomfortable watching her. She is clearly (well, we *really* know it now) a very unhappy woman.

[Snarklepuss]

Speaking of revisionist history, I knew it was something Mormons in general are familiar with as discussed in this and other articles:

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mormon_history

 

http://www.exmormon.org/mormon/mormon357.htm

 

It seems that the Mormon faith is known for revisionist history concerning itself.  The second article is an opinion piece so note that.

Seriously. Can you just pretend to be happy? For the kids' sake? She has such a flat affect, it's uncomfortable watching her. She is clearly (well, we *really* know it now) a very unhappy woman.

 

Meri has gone from being "checked out" into a total black hole.  It's becoming dire.  I can only imagine these scenes were filmed in the middle of the catfish episode,  which I am starting to feel was a kind of cry for help in a way.  She is stuck in a horrible situation and unable to get herself out so she was looking for an escape route, or at least to get back Kody and Robyn for what she feels they did to her.  I can't blame her, poor thing.  I really hope she doesn't let them force-feed her the kool aid when it all comes out and go back to that sorry relationship.  I wish that for Janelle and Christine, too.

[Aethera]

So I don't watch this show, but this thread convinced me to go look up the portrait. Cannot...unsee. Man that's freaking creepy.

[Twopper]

  I guess they can't leave until they have another man to seal them. I don't understand all this about getting to heaven thru your husband or whatever it is.  I was always taught there is no marriage in heaven.  But I can see how that belief would keep them together when they would rather be apart.  All of this just seems so screwy to me--Janelle divorcing Meri's brother and then "marrying" Meri's husband.  Yuck.  Meri divorcing Kody in favor of Robyn. Double yuck.

I am ready for this show to go off the air.

 

Also I wonder if the kids would have been so eager to be adopted--or Kody to adopt them-- were they not on television.

Did I mention I was ready for this show to go away forever?

[laurakaye]

From now on, whenever Meri says "the children are the most important thing," I will drop and do 50 sit-ups.  By summer, I might just have those abs of steel I've always wanted.

 

I swear, the way she says it, it's like she's dead inside and her brain has programmed her mouth to parrot those words whenever she's interviewed.  I am 99% sure this divorce wasn't Meri's idea at all, but that Robyn and Kody, over time, slyly pushed her to go through with it in the name of the "fam'ly."

[Kohola3]

So I don't watch this show, but this thread convinced me to go look up the portrait. Cannot...unsee. Man that's freaking creepy.

 

I don't watch either, I get everything I need from those brave enough to tune in.  And all of the talk about the portrait has convinced me that I cannot afford to pollute my mind with the image.  Thanks for the warnings....

[Higgins]

Man these people are twisted.

[AussieBabe]

This is the first time I've posted and watched in ages. That portrait was single handedly the creepiest piece of artwork I've ever seen in my natural life. What the bloody hell? Obviously their real father isn't an abusive monster. Those kids seemed thrilled to be going to see him. And if he was that bad, why did he have two weeks of unsupervised time? Ugh. He should be seething at how his moronic ex-wife has superimposed Kodouché and replaced him in his portrait with his kids. I refuse to believe they're working with a box of 96 crayons. There are some missing. What a mental family.

And Meri. Get the hell out of there.

Robyn just strikes me as being a real manipulative person. All along, she wanted to be the real wife. Why was adoption sooo important when two of them will be legal adults in a few years. Buying Kodouché a portrait and changing their names doesn't change whose blood is ruining thru their veins.

I swear there has never been a show that made me want to dish out more liver punches and throat punches than this one.

[Kellyee]

 

Seriously. Can you just pretend to be happy? For the kids' sake? She has such a flat affect, it's uncomfortable watching her. She is clearly (well, we *really* know it now) a very unhappy woman.

 

No, I don't think Meri can pretend to be happy. I think Meri is seriously clinically depressed, or at least she was when this was taped. The weight loss, the stomach issue, and the emotional affair are all symptoms of a very unhappy person. When you're that depressed, you can't fake anything. What's even sadder is that no one in that family seems to notice, or at least acknowledge it on camera. Unless they did this week, because I haven't seen the latest episode yet. But we know that Kody never seriously stops and LOOKS at any of his wives to determine what they're feeling, so I'm assuming the jerk is still oblivious.

 

I do think the divorce may have been Meri's idea, though. She may have thought being out of the marriage legally would make her feel better, or she was hoping that she would offer the divorce, and the Kody would throw a fit and say "Absolutely Not". That may have been what she was hoping for, that Kody would fight for her.

[taragel]

Amazing. I guess the TLC coffers are really quite deep despite the putrid ratings for this show. I can't imagine what they budget as "miscellaneous" given all the expensive gifts (real diamonds and a maybe-genuine watch), concrete slabs, fancy cakes, plaques and portraits up the ying-yang, and next week a trip to Alaska. **shakes head** This, in addition, to whatever weird pay-off they must have made to David Preston and possibly the courts of Nevada to allow for this crazy "give up all your rights, but still have visitation for 2 weeks unsupervised every year" deal. 

 

And could any of them have been less enthusiastic about their various gifts? Except for Breanna with the plaque (Aurora doesn't count, because she's OTT all the time). Meri could barely muster a thanks. Kody was like "Oh, hey another super-expensive watch. Great." and didn't even turn on the waterworks for that portrait (which is because I suspect even he thought it was a little creepy or would be deemed so by all those other family members in attendance.) And no one was excited about poor Janelle's dinky cake (60 people?) or Christine's concrete slab (ugly tree).

 

About that portrait. Oy. Not only was it rude to Preston, it was a little rude to Christine whose family photo Robyn cannibalized to take "younger Kody" and put him with her kids. I agree with whomever said up thread that Robyn is trying to make her credit voiceover "Like we all shoulda been together from day one" a reality. She's a scary lady. Those kids, man. I hope their relationship with Preston does actually stay intact regardless of all this birth certificate/renaming hoo-ha. I wonder if they're blackmailing him to agree to this arrangement after Dayton got hurt on that 4-wheeler accident the last time he went and stayed with him. I vaguely recall at the time them saying that the father wasn't even at that accident--but that Dayton got hurt with friends or other family members instead while staying with him. Which you think would be a cause for SUPERVISED visitation at the least. Who knows with this crew.

 

I'd be highly amused if what Meri brought into the family was an STD (not possible from "Sam" of course, but it would be kind of hilarious). That could also explain her "health scares." Alas, I still doubt that they'll actually say anything specific about the catfish scenario---I'm sure it will all continue to deal in generalities like "conflicting emotions." I want to see Kody crying over that, not Meri. What a mess. 

[CofCinci]

Good thing the ugly portrait was done with pencil so that Aurora, upon becoming Mrs. Brown #5, can just erase herself out of the portrait.

Also the glasses Kody wears in the portrait are the same as every child molestor/murderer portrayed in film.

[laurakaye]

Oh my goodness, I just looked at a close-up of the portrait and I totally thought I was looking at a fake that someone else made for laughs...I did not notice Dayton giving the "thumbs-up" nor did I really take a close look at Kody...he's wearing glasses and looks like he's about 75 years old (with the weird lines on his forehead)...and the children are just short of those paintings from the 70's of children with really big eyes that used to creep me out when I was a kid...now I am LOL-ing for real!  At first I thought the picture was just in really bad taste, but upon closer inspection, it's just one big bowl of WRONG.

[bichonblitz]

If it wasn't for Princess Robyn, would there be a single story line at all this season? Oh, wait. We have catfish to look forward to. And Meri's mysterious illness that Kody doesn't give a rat's ass about.

Not only is the drawing creepy, the portrait is such a "F.U." to Christine too. Robyn cannibalized one of Christine's few precious memories.

Shots fired. RIP Christine. They all thought Meri was a terrible sister wife but she's nothing compared to what's developing Robyn. The Queen is dead, long live the Queen.

[DakotaJustice]

The only part of this episode I would even want to see would be the faces of the rest of the family when they got their first look at that godawful portrait.  I heard that Logan could barely supress his laughter.

[Tabbygirl521]

Did I really see that Robyn had a drawing made with young Kody and her biological kids, replacing their own father in a rewriting of their childhood history? It's one of the most disturbing things I've seen these weirdos do--and that's saying a lot. Robyn has some major screws loose and is determined to fuck up her children, who still visit their father.

Reminds me of the "New Dad" commercial from long long ago on SNL. I wish I could paste a link but my phone is uncooperative.

[MissT]

I didn't see last nights episode, but I DVR'd it.   After reading everyone's comments on this portrait, I decided to look it up.  All I can say - WTF!!!!   He looks deranged.  In fact, I thought I was looking at FDR for a minute.   And the thumbs up of Dayton/David (whatever his name is) is even weirder.   WTH was Robin thinking?   This family is absolutely nuts....  I think they all are clinically depressed and I have a feeling their family is in a bad way (we just don't see it). 

[CofCinci]

It gets better, y'all. Robyn found the portrait artist on www.pet-portrait.eu!

At the party, Kody kept giving hugs to Aurora, and I think only Aurora.  The kids got their plaques -- hug Aurora.  Kody gets his watch -- hug Aurora.  This just gets creepier and creepier.

[SuspiciousMind]

That episode was beyond belief.  I'm still utterly floored by the extreme asshatishness of Kody's sarcastic, immature "I'm a watch guy..." comment when being presented with the watch.  Disgusting on so many levels.  What an absolute F-head.
