Episode Transcript

(00:10):
What does the nanny do? OK, so we're done.
Goodbye. You shut it off.
Do not twist my words. Do not make me a victim,
sweetie. Just look at the mountain.
That's what you. Saw that day just the knife in
the kidneys over all these years and the sacrifices that I made

(00:31):
to love you. Welcome back to Part 2 of Season
6, episode 2. We're going to start where we

(00:52):
left off with everyone's favorite wife when we start
Robyn's day. Oh, Robyn's day, our favorite
day of all the wives. She's it's whispering because
Solomon is sleeping and the sun is very bright.
It's almost like it's the middle of the day, but I don't know
if it's the middle of the day because other people are getting

(01:14):
out of bed too. And I often times wonder with
Robyn is there a gas leak in every place she lives?
Because what the fuck is going on here?
Or is she purposely get causing a slow leak because she likes
being semi high? She's like, I'm being slow.
And a little fucked up, like, OK Robyn, well you are raising

(01:36):
children in this house, but whatever.
I don't know what huffing is, but.
You don't have to huff when your whole house is full of it.
Oh my gosh, yeah. She is telling everybody to be
quiet and they need to whisper.
And she's telling us that her and Kody are going on a date
after they have a meeting with Mona and the family.

(01:57):
It's only her third date withoutSolomon in a year and I'm going,
OK, so first of all, your day is going to be a meeting and
then a date. So this just gives you like it
gives us an understanding of thelet's fill Robyn's day to make
it busy. And it's a meeting and a date.
I know people don't get to go out on dates with their spouse

(02:20):
when they have a newborn, but I feel like 3 alone dates in a
year seems like probably a lot of people would be actually
happy to have three alone dates in the first year of having a
newborn. Yeah, specifically when you live
away from family, like most people don't have a lot of
family near that more extended family that is capable of

(02:42):
watching a child. So yeah, it's not super bizarre,
but it is when you actually think of this type of family,
Like with three other sister wives, that would be one sister
wife watching him for an entireyear for one night.
If you think of it that way, it's fucking weird.

(03:02):
It is weird. And as we've said.
And Mckelty used to go with Kodydown to watch her kids when she
lived in Saint George and they were up in Lehigh.
Yep. So it's like none of the
teenagers could watch the kid for a couple.
Hours. I don't believe what she's.
It just it doesn't pass my smelltest and she's using it as a
kind of like, oh, I only had three dates in a year and I'm

(03:24):
going. I feel like most mothers I know
would be like I I got three dates or like I would've been
happy to have three dates. Like it doesn't seem like it's
like a fucking Robyn. I don't.
Even know she's just a liar and a fraud like you said before,
she's a fucking liar. She's.
A liar and a fraud. So she is telling the girls that
they need to be quiet, Yes. Keep saying.

(03:46):
Repeatedly, Aurora and Brianna need to shut their little mouths
and keep their little hands tothemselves and occupied.
Now the sun is blaring through every window.
It is the brightest day I've ever seen.
Yeah, it's the middle of the day.
It's solves nap time. I get it.
As a mom with a child that stilltakes a nap and I have to
convince my oldest to be quiet, I get it.

(04:09):
However, my oldest is not even 4, so to keep like a three-year
old turning 4 quiet is difficult.
Aurora, however, goes and startsplaying the piano.
Not even sitting. She's not even sitting down to
play the piano. No, she's like plunking the keys

(04:29):
with one finger on purpose. Like, tinkering with the piano.
And I'm thinking to myself, here
she looks like she's 9 or 10. Yeah.
Yeah. And I know it's hard to tell
age, especially girls, like, they're taller, like, younger
and whatnot. But I'm like, you're fucking old
enough to know that your little brother is napping and to sit

(04:50):
your ass down in color or play a computer game or go outside
and play. Like you said, the sun's a
shining, right? Like, what the fuck?
Her kids just kind of seem a little like bratty in this
moment, like they're purposely trying to wake Saul.
And who knows if that's performative as well for the
cameras. And they think they're being

(05:10):
funny, but it's like, Jesus Christ, I would be losing it.
Well, and if only they could read, because then you know,
they could read a book or do something, but they might not be
able to read before Aurora is plucking at the piano like a
moron. Her and Brianna are literally
making noises and like saying things to each other loudly.

(05:31):
Really loud. Robyn and Robyn's like just, and
it's like, Oh my God. Like it's so weird.
Maybe it is the cameras. I don't know.
It's just some of the weirdest shit I've ever seen.
I'd be like, hey, why don't you guys go out back and play with
this? I feel like I'm very good with
my oldest when the youngest is sleeping at being like, hey,

(05:52):
this is an activity that we're going to do while he's sleeping.
Or hey, you're going to go outside or you're going to go
and run this errand with dad. Or like I always try to plan
ahead because I don't want it to fuck up my youngest nap
because I know he'll be a crab ass if he doesn't get his nap.
So it's almost like she sets herself up for these failures on

(06:13):
purpose because it gives her that victim mentality.
Or like, well, Saul didn't have a nap today because he just
couldn't sleep and he's a sensitive light sleeper.
She keeps saying that he's a light sleeper.
Sleeper. It's like that's because you've
made him that way. Because you are tiptoe tiptoeing

(06:34):
around and kids are not naturally light sleepers.
When they need to sleep, they're going to fucking sleep and
they are going to sleep. Maybe you don't leave him in the
middle of your king size bed with all the blinds.
She literally leaves him in the middle of her king size bed and
he's just like sprawled out. And I'm like, this is against
every single thing that a physician would ever tell you to

(06:55):
do with a child, but OK. Yeah.
And then they. They're blinds drawn.
The room is as bright as the day can get.
Yes, and she's like, he's a night sleeper.
Like, why is he not in a his own room in a crib with blackout
curtains, you dumbass? He could roll off that bed and

(07:17):
get a little baby concussion, little baby concussion or worse.
And it's like a big bed and it's like high off the ground too.
And I know at this point in time we had sleep rules from
doctors about, you know, children this age.
So what the fuck ever. And.
And I, I don't know if it's too much of A connection here, like

(07:39):
a reach, but there's a thing with Robyn and like
infantilizing her children as well, which becomes more and
more prevalent as the years go on.
So so right now I wouldn't say that it stands out to me, but
like cut to season 20 and we're talking about grown ass adult
children who behave like they are 12 or something.

(07:59):
Like it's fucked up. So I might be being too
dramatic, but I'm wondering if there's a connection also too
with the kids doing whatever and her like not enforcing any
rules or not having any regulation whatsoever with
them. Kind of like a, I don't know, I
don't want to sound like a old fashioned blah, blah, blah, but

(08:20):
it's like you need to shut the fuck up.
Your your brother is sleeping like enough is enough.
Like do they ever hear anything like that or are they just
treated like with kid clips? She walks around this house
while this is happening as if she is defeated by her children,
like slouching on the stairs and looking over the railing and
being like, I'm a victim of myown children's behavior.
It's like, bitch, lay down a law.

(08:42):
Like what are you doing in this house?
I mean if this is a regular problem it's like why are they
not going off to Meri's to do anactivity during Saul's nap time
each day because what the fuck is she doing other than creeping
online? And I had to laugh because they
show a weird clip of Dayton like kind of getting off of his

(09:04):
bed for no reason and there's like 1/2 dead tree in his
window, like a big potted weird dying tree next to his
bed. And I'm like, what are this?
Like why are this here? Totally.
And that's what confused me about the time of day because
I'm like, I thought it was the middle of the day, but then he

(09:25):
looks like he's getting out of bed, like he's rubbing his eyes
and he's just waking up. And I'm like.
What? Is going on in this gas, this
gas leak, it's a gas leak. I don't know.
Potentially something allegedly Allegedly this rental hat.
Allegedly, Robyn gas leaks her own homes on.
Repeats other than Saul sleeping in the middle of the bed when

(09:46):
she has these ugly ass like bright red maroonish sheets that
remind me of no offense to my mother but it's like the same
color as the bedspread that like my mom had and every other
parent like growing up had with like the gardenia flowers on it
type of thing. My dad painted their bedroom
that color and I remember just being like, OK.

(10:09):
Like this brick, Red but maroonish.
Like more of a dark. Hideous Robyn talks about it
being good for her and her kids to be in Vegas.
It's actually been an improvement for them, which does
make sense because you know they were living with their
horrible mother who is like claimed to be a victim the
entire time. Remember when she had no heat
and porting the space heater? Space heater.

(10:31):
Now he's next to a dying tree and it's so much better.
She's willing. He's releasing carbon dioxide
from this dying tree right next to his bed, Robyn.
Just like the carbon dioxide monoxide from his fucking space
heater that he was right next to.
It's good to say honey, you haveto say carbon.
Monoxide let's carbon die. Oh God.

(10:52):
But like, you know, she's, oh, she's just so dreadful.
And she's hoping that when they all move into the homes on the
cul-de-sac, her and her kids will be integrated into the
family because that didn't really happen yet.
They haven't really been integrated fully.
And I think that's an interesting note because this
does become a theme in the show,is that, you know, she's the

(11:16):
ugly stepchild of a wife or uglyred headed stepchild of a wife.
And you know, it's because
nobody likes you because you're an idiot and you don't do
anything all day. What the fuck is she doing all
day? She's literally telling her kids
to be quiet, I guess. Yeah, that's what she does all
day. And then she's just sitting
there and hoping that they'll be integrated into the culture

(11:37):
that they didn't get to be a part of because of the move
she's. Open I love when you do Robyn
hoping I'm. Just hoping that we get
integrated into the family once we move to the cul-de-sac.
Remember that from whatever episode when you like did her
quote. It was so good.
I remember I said the line and you were like, no, no, no, it's

(11:57):
actually better and you. Said it was.
So good. A second chance at hoping.
At hoping, It's like you're giving us a second chance at
hoping. Well, Robyn, you don't give us
much hope. Oh my God, our genie mother Mona
arrives at Robbins house alongwith the other adults.
They're going to be meeting to discuss.

(12:18):
So this is one of Robbins 2 activities for the day.
She 3 excuse me? She had to tell her children to
be quiet and she failed at that.
Then they're going to have this meeting with Mona and then
she's going on a date with Kody.
So Mona arrives, all the adults are there, and Mona's going to
give them an update on their status of their homes, of
course. Oh, Kody's jokes and he says he

(12:39):
asks if this is very serious and if he should be taking notes
and Mona says yes, probably you should, this is serious.
Should not be taking notes. Yeah, probably.
Especially because you all have failed at following the
instructions thus far. Yes, yes, she says that the
order the homes will be delivered on is Robyn, Meri,

(13:01):
Janelle, then Christine. And we were.
What is delivered do you think are like a real estate term for
a new build, like a handover ofkeys 'cause there's so many
other terms for that? Like you use the term like
deliver on your promise. Like we're going to deliver them
in this order. Like, yeah, I think it was meant
to be like that. It was just a very weird way of

(13:21):
saying it. I know right, 'cause I was like,
why is she saying this? Yeah, leave it to the show to
pull a weird comment like that to let us know the order of the
homes, which we already were told earlier in the episode.
Yeah, Kody says Meri and Robyn'shomes might be ready, but we
aren't ready with our approval, so we've heard.

(13:46):
Yeah, we're all aware. Mona tells them that Kody, Meri
and Robyn need to get on top oftheir paperwork.
She expects Robyn's approval to come last.
As far as the actual approval for the homes.
So like you need to get on top of it.
The first home that's going to be done is Robyn's, but she's
the last approval that's coming through is what it's all looking

(14:08):
like. Yep, Kody's logic worked out
really well there for having herhome be the first one completed.
What a dumbass.
Like literally stupidest idea ever.
Now I'm going to try to do a little Robyn here, honey, if I
fail, if I fail, I'm going to hand the baton to you, OK?
She says. I feel this pressure.

(14:28):
I feel this amazing amount of pressure to get my paperwork
done. And I just thought to repeat
that. You feel pressure with, you feel
this amazing. Amount of pressure.
Awful. Oh, my girl, you feel a lot.
And you, you actually, you don't feel.

(14:50):
I don't know. It's the gas.
I don't. I just don't get it.
It's insane. I feel this pressure of building
in my bossy in her. Bossy.
In my bossy. Oh God.
And she is comparing it like to that in my mind, you know,
having baby Sol, this pressure of building.
Oh, God. In this scene, Robyn is wearing

(15:12):
a three quarter sleeve top that is red, and layered on top of
that is the hodgepodge necklace she was wearing at my sister
wife's closet meeting where it was like, that's not from your
collection, is it? It doesn't look like it.
Yeah. Why are you wearing?
Jewelry that isn't yours at this point, right everyone?
Else needs to be moving mountains for your business and
you can't even wear your own fucking jewelry while you're

(15:33):
being filmed. Instead you're wearing this like
multi chained blah blah blah collection of crap.
And then on top of this red top with this ugly necklace is a
doily white bridal lingerie nun top.
I don't know how to describe it, honey.
I said some words. How would you describe it?

(15:54):
It looks. Like she's wearing like a bridal
negligee over the shirt. It's like this white Lacy tank
top that see through, so you're just seeing the red through it
and it almost looks like something you might wear on your
wedding night with nothing under it.
And part. Of me is like, is this an actual
tank that she's wearing over this or is she being like gross

(16:19):
right now and like teasing Kody in front of the wives?
Like imagine if she was smart enough to be like, oh, I'm going
to wear the negligee I wore the night of our wedding, but I'm
going to wear it over my clothes in front of my sister wives,
in front of my husband and see what he does right?
Can you imagine? It'd be pretty.

(16:40):
Fucked up, but it makes sense. It makes sense because it is
literally the sluttiest thing I have seen on this family.
I'm not. Even.
Yeah, it is. It is.
It's like a negligee over the top of her shirt and pants.
I mean. If you were to wear that, OK,
you wouldn't be wearing the three quarter, you wouldn't be
wearing this. But if anyone I knew was wearing

(17:00):
that, I would be like, are you going to like a sex party?
Because what is going on here like this is bizarre.
Like I. Literally had something so
similar for like, the night that I got married.
As soon as I saw that, I was like, yeah, that's good Wedding
night. Negligee.
Yeah. So I don't we talk about this a
lot. Some women are so smart when it

(17:23):
comes to like underhanded manipulation, especially when it
comes to other women, and like not being a girl's girl and like
hurting other women. And then they're really dumb
when it comes to like other parts of life.
And she does these weird, underhanded things that seem

(17:43):
very smart, but then she's dumb enough that you question if
she's doing it on purpose to be hurtful.
And it's like this weird mind fuck game that I think,
unfortunately, some women do. And it's like, part of the
patriarchy, Like, you know, we're meant to go against each
other, like, fight for this man, like, instead of, you know,

(18:07):
helping each other. Yeah.
And I think her wearing something like this just feels
like that to me, just like she used to when they first started
dating dressed like a teenager.
It felt like she was doing it onpurpose to set herself apart
from the other wives and be like, I'm so much younger.
I'm so much this, which is the pick me girl mentality.

(18:29):
And then you see her wearing this like white wedding negligee
in front of the other wives, like all sitting on couches.
And it just feels very diabolical, right?
Because. If you're one of the other
wives, well, let's say you pick up on this in some way, like
maybe not even hit over the headwith it, but you're like, why is
this? What is this top?

(18:50):
And it's like, it looks like lingerie or like a negligee or
whatever. Like what is going on?
And then what if you start getting sensitive about it, but
you're not connecting the dots exactly.
And then you're the one getting fucked in your brain going like,
well, what's going on with them?
And she's totally setting it up to do it on purpose.
And then you're. Christine And it's like you're
making a mountain out of a molehill.

(19:11):
What's wrong with you? And then but in your mind you
feel like underhanded weirdness.
I think another way I can compare this for our listeners
that they will totally get this is like mother in law's.
OK. I feel like a lot of like women
have weird relationships with their sons where they do
underhanded stuff to their like daughter in laws and from a lot

(19:33):
of my friends and like whatever, it's like you question
yourself because you're like, well, but they say they like
love me and they're happy and part of the family.
But this thing that they did feels like maybe they don't feel
that way. And it's this just like fucked
up nature and like part of the patriarchy to pit women against
each other. And I just think that Robyn has

(19:55):
fell for the scam. I think that she fights for her
man in a way she doesn't need to and she shouldn't do if she
has sister wives, She is a one woman, one man show pony and she
should have fucking kept it that way.
She destroyed this family. And this is one of those

(20:15):
instances where it's like. Putting a knife in the kidney,
you know, like, bitch, you're putting 1 by 1 tiny little
thumbtacks into the kidney, you know, like, and nobody's seeing
it or noticing it. Yeah.
Absolutely because literally I feel like if I connected the
dots I would think I was overreacting and and being too

(20:35):
whatever when in all reality. It's planted.
In there it's already there. So like this is.
Like gaslighting one O 1 and herand Kody are so good at it, but
they're both dumb when it comesto like actual smarts.
They're just good at manipulation tactics to get what
they want because they're not smart enough to get it any other
way. They have to manipulate to get

(20:57):
what they want because they couldn't do it any other way.
Just like, you know, Kody with the dog with Meri.
If if she would have gone along with his plan to hide, like
basically putting their dog down, she would have been
blamed. And he would have been totally
fine with that because he would have avoided getting blamed.
And they were both so manipulative and fucking weird.

(21:19):
I don't even know.
And this is a very odd instance that I almost didn't notice.
Like, you pointed it out to me.
And then I was like, Oh my God, yeah, because.
The the layering, this is The thing is, it's so subtle, like
the layering of the three quarters shirt underneath it and
the ugly necklace. It's like, oh, this is what they
wear. They wear like crazy ugly shit,

(21:40):
but no, But then it's like, what is she wearing?
This is. Suggestive on purpose.
It's not like their normal like full on camisole top over a long
sleeve like their religion wants them to be.
Modest. No, this, this is suggestive.
This is on purpose. It's a negligee over a top that
you would normally wear. Oh my God, We went on about

(22:03):
this. But I'm I'm feeling some type of
way and I'm feeling like it's our job.
That's why we're doing. It's our job.
Yes, it's our. Job to point these things out
it. Absolutely is yes that's why you
come here is for the hard hitting reporting well we.
Have to rewatch this bullshit sothat you don't have to and so
that you can actually listen to fun commentary and what happened

(22:25):
instead of reliving the torture like we're doing for
you. My God, martyrs.
Martyrs. I do have a bit of a Jesus
complex. Oh well, Robyn talks about the
struggles of getting creditors to update her credit score and
blah blah blah, and Mona tells her she needs to push everyday.
She's got to be a pusher. She needs to call, she needs to

(22:46):
write, she needs to whatever. And I'm going you think this
bitch does something everyday? This bitch can't even like sign
her name on a piece of paper like she's not going to be able
to do this. So I love how Mona gives her a
take away, gives her homework. What if your only thing to do
was to follow up with creditors to ensure that they removed
something from your credit report if you paid for it, or

(23:07):
someone negotiated something and it's been on for more than 30
days, and all you have to do is call.
And that's like your only thing you have to do.
And she can't even do that. Yeah.
And. One of the reasons that she's
worried and feeling the pressure is because she doesn't want to
be the one to let the kids down and they really need to be an A
home for Christmas and she knows that the likely possibility is

(23:27):
that would be her home. And nice.
Still can't do this shit right.
This is even if if she was doingthe finger tap, the diabolical
ha ha, ha. It's like, well, then at least
do that. Yeah, you're going.
To like, fuck yourself over. Like you're going to fuck
yourself over. Oh God.
Everyone will be spending Christmas at Meri's house and
she'll be like, what? I get my plan work.

(23:49):
And it's like, because you're a fucking idiot.
Yeah, you could. Have had everyone to your house
and you know made a thing of it, but instead you couldn't do
your God damn creditor calls yes she's.
So dumb. Mona.
Also lets everyone know that herother concern is how many times
you all have been out there without me.
Oh, I. Wrote down this whole quote.

(24:11):
Oh, you got the. Real quote.
Oh, OK, give us, give us, give us Mona's quote.
Another concern is how many times have you been out there
without me? Because I know from the get go,
I've always said you would needto get me and let me know when
you want to go out there. And I'm hearing that you've been

(24:34):
out there quite a bit. Quite a bit.
Quite a bit. And I love this about Mona
because she's totally doing the thing.
I'm guessing most parents are experts at this, where you lead
the witness into, you know, divulging their crimes.
I already know. I already.
Know the whole truth, but I'm just going to start with it

(24:56):
seems like you may have gone outthere without me.
The camera does show Kody and he's looking mischievous.
We're getting. Confession.
He's looking. Guilty.
He's smiling on the couch. Kody says.
Well, we, you know, stopped there twice.
I, you know, I went there once and then I, you know, we stopped

(25:16):
by there another time and we, Danny just happened to be there.
We were.
Already driving by. We stopped by 2 * 2 times.
Done, done, Mona says. So you've only been out there
twice and like the head tilt, only been out there twice,
right? And then Meri has the devil's

(25:37):
smile, and it goes. And her eyes are darting back
and forth. Yes.
And the close up on Meri's terrible skin and her, well, her
face. I don't want somebody in the.
Background, says Meri. You're the one.
Blame, blame, blame. That's the game.
That's the one. It's it.
It's just the truth. Yeah, Kody.

(25:58):
Says Meri goes by every day, and Meri says well, not.
Every day, but how many? Times does she say she's been by
maybe 10 times and. Mona goes 10 and Meri goes
maybe. Did I do that?

(26:21):
She's pulling a Robyn, yes. And then her lame ass excuses.
Well, I have to make a scrapbook.
The progress of the bill. Janelle is literally clutching
her fake pearls. Yes, she has a fake Pearl
necklace on and she's like clutching it in this moment with
her fist. Yes, Janelle's.
Wearing like what, some sort of like satin blouse or something,

(26:44):
Some sort of shiny, silky, satiny, whatever.
And I love it because the color just isn't quite right.
And, you know, that's Janelle. And then there's this single
strand of long pearls, like knotted at the bottom.
And she is. And she oh, yeah, like,
literally like 15 cent pearls from a costume store.
And she's holding on to them while listening to this story.

(27:04):
And she's feeling her, feels she's.
So mad that she's, like, clutching her pearls.
And Meri says that, yes, this is because she has to build a
scrapbook of the progress of the homes.
But I have to go out there to take pictures.
Yeah. Pictures oh to get.
The progress of the homes, yeah.
That's really something. Bitch, how long did you even end

(27:26):
up living there? Yeah, like. 2 fucking.
Years and you had to take photosof the progress of the homes and
just interrupt them all day long.
We went and. We picked plan two of three of
these ticky techy homes. They're on a cul-de-sac where
all the homes look the same and I had to take photos of the
progress for my scrapbook. Once again, these people need

(27:49):
real jobs. They need real hobby.
They need something to do. Meri needs something to do other
than getting her fake Tanner her hair did and taking photos
of a house being built. We do get a spotlight moment
from Mona where she says the Browns keep making changes.
I'm very concerned that they maynot be in before Christmas.
And she enunciates and she is very like in the camera.

(28:13):
Like she is making a point that it's like I am concerned that
they will not be in before Christmas.
She's told, you know, Janelle and Christine, and now she's
kind of breaking the news and trying to be like, this is like,
listen, hello, listen. Hey, Kody Take.
Notes. It's like please.
Take notes. Are you writing this down?
You're not going to be in beforeChristmas if you keep making

(28:33):
changes. Quit going by.
The site. Oh God, it.
Just reminds me of like when youpeople tell people of things and
it's like they say it over andover again and the people don't
hear it. I just it's insane to me.
It doesn't make any sense. So what I.
Think is different about this too, is that these are builder
homes like you said and this is another company that already
contracted for these homes to bebuilt no matter if they were
going to move into them or not, like they were going to build

(28:55):
homes there and sell them. Now it's different.
Let's say you pick a site and you're building your own home
from scratch completely on your own.
You're kind of in charge of likegetting to that site
periodically and checking in andmaking sure that like progress
is happening or like they kind of will take advantage of the
timeline. They'll draw things out, things

(29:16):
might go wrong. You need to be in charge of it,
but this is not that type of situation.
I want to reiterate, no, these are builder homes.
You picked a layout, you picked the carpet and like a few other
things, but you don't need to be checking in on them everyday.
This isn't like your private
contractor that you hired, that you bought a lot and are

(29:38):
building a home on. It's a different situation.
So like if they're looking at it like that, there is another
company in charge of this like back the fuck up.
Mona asks for a time the next day they can all get to the
houses and Meri says 11:00. Let's all check our schedules.
Our busy, busy schedules. Yeah, we've.

(29:58):
All got so much going on. Turns out that the only thing
Meri had going on that day was a haircut or excuse me, a hair
appointment. So 11:00 would work for her
after her hair appointment. And then the scene ends.
Thank God. OK, we're moving on.
Sorry everybody. Like we're getting there.
We're getting there. Hiplash again, fade out.
Fade in. Janelle is approaching Robyn,

(30:19):
sitting at a table with a laptop.
So, you know, Robyn sitting at her table, she's working,
working. She's a little, you know, she's
a business mogul, really. And then Janelle walks in, purse
first, walking in with that purse.
Love that Janelle ain't going nowhere without her purse.
And Robyn looks like she's in trouble at the principal's

(30:39):
office. When she looks up, she has a
look of like, Oh my God, why is she here?
What is she going to talk to me about?
I'm in trouble, they look. At each other and they go hey,
hey. Like there's this like pregnant
pause between them both saying hey to each other they really
like. Each other and.
Robyn's got right in front of her window, a teetering stack of

(31:03):
bins full of like, God knows what, God knows what next to her
Baker's rack just pushed up in the corner.
And I'm like and the Baker. 'S rack is full of shit, and
then to the side of these totes is another thing full of shit.
I mean, there's just shit everywhere.
What the? Hell, Robyn says.
When Janelle first came over to my house, I was a little
nervous. Oh boy, you should have been

(31:26):
nervous. You should.
Have been nervous, you dumb bitch.
Yes, But you know, Janelle does surprise.
Well, she's surprised me in this scene.
I don't know if she surprised you.
She has a seat. Then she tells Robyn.
You know, I've been thinking a lot about my sister wife's
closet as your business when really we've spent a lot of
money. So I think it's time for me to

(31:47):
engage, time for me to pursue the jumbo extra large T-shirt
line. It's like an epiphany.
Now. I was paraphrasing there.
She didn't actually say jumbo extra large T-shirts, but, you
know, give or take a few words, that's what happened.
She. Was looking for plus size

(32:09):
workout clothes the other day and she couldn't find any that
were modest and she realized tapping her chin she could use
the business to make them herself.
Yes. Oh, an epiphany an.
Epiphany. Oh my.
And I'm. Wondering if it's like a drug
dealer getting high on their own supply, like how some people

(32:33):
would produce something just so that they had it, or if there's
a real audience, I think and you think I believe that there
would be a potential customer base for this now.
This would have made more sense from the get go is if they
would have been like my sister wives closet and we create a

(32:53):
clothing line or something that's all inclusive to all
sizes because we are four different women with four
different body shapes and we understand and we can come at
it from this angle. And this would have been smart
if you started this way, right? But no.
And they all could. Have had their own take on what

(33:14):
they like for clothes what theydon't like for clothes.
They could have they literally I, I'm such a like a web
developer at heart. I'm like going like how you can
separate it by products, but then also by the person who
produced it literally like Janelle's line, you know, and
it's like it's her styling, which would have been atrocious
and Robyn. Could have just done accessories
like Robyn. Could have been like I don't
wear clothes. Yeah, I don't wear clothes.

(33:37):
I wear negligee her line. Is like a negligee and then a
bunch of ugly jewelry with. No, a negligee with the long
sleeve sewn on to it so it's not2 separate pieces.
Instead, they're finally sewn together.
Finally. Together, so God's.
Sake sew them together, you can be wrist.
To ankle covered in this sexy wear from Robyn's line just like

(33:57):
a. Thong over like a Mormon like
sewn onto the top of a Mormon dress and a bra sewn onto a
dress so. Ridiculous.
Oh my. God and Janelle's shit.
Is like the ugliest stuff you'veever seen.
Maybe Christine's would be uglier.
Then they kind of start talking shit a little bit.
You know? Robyn asks.
How can they get Kody and Christine invested in my sister

(34:20):
wife's? How can we get them to?
Commit. How can we?
Get them into this. Now, this happened really quick
too, which was jarring. It was like Janelle says she's
on board and she wants to make her extra large jumbo shirts and
Robyn's like, well, how can weget Kody and Christine involved?
And it's like what?
Little quick, little fast, a little crazy.
And you're right, maybe a little skimmy and.

(34:40):
Janelle says that she doesn't think that Kody should be a part
of the business and that it should be a women powered
business. And I think the.
Phrase women powered is intentional because if Kody is
an owner or a part owner, it can't be a woman owned business.
So it's a woman powered business.
I think Janelle, for as much as I say she's not the brightest

(35:04):
bulb, her bulb does flicker every once in a while.
And I think they couldn't say it's a woman owned business
because I don't think the wives own it.
I think it's a LLC and Kody probably owns it in a certain
sense. She.
Says as far as getting Christine involved, only invite
Christine to the fun stuff and the creative things.

(35:24):
She's good at sales. If it gets too serious, she
won't engage. Yeah, she hates.
Meetings, if it's a chore, she disengages yes so you know it's
interesting the way that this comes across because disengaging
for meetings or feeling like any kind of business work is a

(35:46):
chore is a bit what like dismissive or maybe put
downish. And this is where you're saying
like the shit talking or the whatever you want to say, like
kind of making her sound like, well, if it's serious,
Christine's not going to be likeshe's.
Got the attention span of a flea.
She's not interested unless you make it shiny for her, but then.
The compliment is like, you

(36:07):
know, if it comes to fun and creative things.
And then they do show actual footage of Christine with this
voiceover happening from Janelle where she's at the booth at
the Expo. She was the only one.
And she was like doing a little song and dance and
enthusiastically talking to people about the jewelry.
And it was like, so that actually is her strength.
Like, yeah, it's not a put down.
That is literally her strength. Well.

(36:28):
Remember that Christine's the one that said her eyes were
glazing over as she listened to Robyn talk.
And she she saw the customer's eyes glazing over as Robyn was
giving her spiel about the jewelry.
And then you had Christine, who was, like, upbeat and happy and
able to sell and, like, talk tothe customers.
So yeah, like, let's put her in a sales role or something fun.

(36:52):
And they start this out very negatively.
But I think it also plays on Christine's strengths, which is
like a people person. And it reminds.
Me of how back in the day beforethe show, Christine was in the
PR. She was.
She did public. Speaking and she would go and do
engagements where they needed a representative that could be a

(37:14):
friendly face to the sick cultand she's good at that.
Well. That's why Kody thought she'd be
the perfect Band-Aid between, you know, Meri and Janelle when
they were struggling to get along.
Because Christine was bubbly, she was happy, and she would
bring the family together. She saves.
People's bacon. She was going to.
Save their bacon. And then Kody killed the light

(37:36):
in her eyes and it's been a struggle ever since.
Like he does. You know how we talked about
Janelle's makeup at one point and you said it looked her
eyeshadow looked like Ursula? Yeah, I'm thinking that's like
Kody's sucking the life out of fucking Christine.
Yeah, we're gonna get there. Oh, it's still.
Coming up there. Oh shit, sorry I didn't.
Alarming. Oh God.

(37:56):
I I shot my load prematurely shot the.
Load. You shot Ursula's inky.
Load Oh. God, the inky load.
Oh. Boy, not Ursula's.
Inky load. Robyn says that Janelle coming
to talk to her made her day. Oh, it was not the negative
thing she thought it would be. And now Robyn and Kody are going

(38:18):
to go to Red Rock Canyon to gorappelling on their dates.
Oh, Chris. They're going to go rappoling.
Oh Rappol. Yeah, they're.
Going to go rappoling. You don't really know.
What the activity is going to be?
Because it's Robyn talking aboutit.
So it's like. Balloon, Robyn says I've missed
Kody this last year. Since Solomon has been born.

(38:39):
We haven't. Had our time alone.
We haven't been. Alone enough.
Gross. So we're going to try to speed
through this because literally all they do is go rappel down a
hill. They meet Josh James, Joshua
James. Joshua.
James, he's wearing what kind ofhat he's.
Like some sort of weird Wicker fedora.
He's got this yellow long sleevebaseball tee on and black pants

(39:01):
and I'm like what the fuck is even happening here?
The whole look was. Very tragic.
It was very Christine. And Kody says he's repelled five
times in his life. And I vomited.
So then Kody and Robyn back their bodies down some rocks
attached to a rope. Robyn talks about wanting to
just be Robyn, not a mom. Sometimes she wants to be
herself, and so it's nice to be able to do an activity where she

(39:23):
can just be her. They do.
Talk a little bit about the legalities of plural marriage,
because Josh wants to know if it's legal to have that many
wives. And you know, Kody says, well,
it's spiritual and religious decision.
It's not legal, so it doesn't apply, especially in Nevada,
whatever. And then and he also.

(39:44):
Makes sure to point out that it is a lifetime commitment, which
I thought was, which I thought was funny.
They're bound, but and we know that as they're bound in life
together forever, they're going to be up in the celestial
Kingdom together forever. Forever.
Serving him where, Meri? Needs privacy.
And then this is weird because Robyn says there's a pickle in

(40:06):
her mind. There's there's a pickle in my
mind. Your mind has.
Definitely been pickled. Will the.
Boundaries and the focus change.When we all moved to the
cul-de-sac, will the focus remain?
I was like, what in the fuck areyou talking about and why is
this a part of this? And I'm like AKA will Kody's

(40:28):
focus remain on her right? Will we want to go to another
wife's house if it's right there?
Yeah. Will there be more of a schedule
for him to have to go home to home instead of just being at
her home? I love it.
The pickle in her mind, the dillpickle.
There's the. Pickle in my mind.
My mind. Has been pickled and it's a
dill. I'm like.
OK, it's a big dill. People say.

(40:48):
We're in a pickle. Not there's the pickle.
In my mind, she's. Such an idiot.
Jesus. Criminy can we be done with?
Robyn's day, please. We are so.
Done with her day. OK.
We're moving on to. Unfortunately.
Robyn did not fall down the hilland injure herself.
No, she did. Not she did not Josh.
Josh James did not let her bust her bum on the way down and he.

(41:10):
Looked terrible doing it.
Now we're going to Meri's day, a day with.
Meri a day with Meri a day with Meri a day with Meri a day with
Meri a day with Meri a day. With Meri quite contrary.
Oh boy. Meri starts her day by slowly

(41:32):
and gently waking Leon up for their run at 4:20 AM.
Honey, it's time to get up for the run and to get.
Stoned at 4:20 and she's going to get high.
Leon, we're going to get high. It's 420.
Get up, Leon. We're going to get high, Meri.
Is rubbing their back and just gently waking them up like oh

(41:56):
like a little 5 year old. Oh, delicate.
Little Flower, OH. My gosh, and I just want to
keep. Yeah, going to go on this run.
Are they going to run very early at 4:20 in the morning because
they're so very active, as you can tell by their physique and
their appearance, Yes, and. Meri won't let them run alone,
so Meri has to get up with them as well.

(42:16):
And it's because at 6:00 AM in the morning, Leon goes to a
seminary class, so the run must be done by then.
The run. Must be done very early.
Yes, while Leon is old enough to be a spouse in the cult that
they're a part of, Leon is not old enough to go on a run by
themselves. So Meri has to accompany Leon on

(42:37):
this run at 4:20. Now, to be clear, they were both
high as Fock because it was 420 in the morning, but also when
they showed footage of them running down the sidewalk, there
was not a car insight because it is 4:20 in the morning, like
everyone's asleep and there's these two thin runners going
down the street at 4:20 in the morning now.

(42:58):
Tobifa, I do believe that Meri was more concerned about a
coyote getting Leon than a human predator, right?
A. 4 legged predator. Listen, that's what.
I'm thinking maybe a a rattlesnake, a scorpion.
I don't know what the fuck they have out there so.
Scorpion. Meri is going to like, kick a

(43:19):
coyote in the teeth. If it's coming for Leon, you got
to. Kick the coyote in the teeth so.
Good. Meri starts talking about the
call to plural marriage. Oh yes, and that she believes
that Leon has that. And here's the call the calling
to. Be in a polygamous family as an

(43:41):
adult while also fulfilling their dream of becoming a
doctor. A doctor.
It's just a. Stereotype that women in plural
marriage don't get an education.
I'm going to be a doctor. What a.
Terrible stereotype. So when we talked earlier about
the older kids having couch moments that don't matter, this

(44:02):
is one of them. And I think the I think this
might be the only one we talk about, I hope, because my God,
it literally doesn't matter. But Aspen, Maddie, Mckelty and
Leon are sitting on this couch, and Mckelty talks about
envisioning Leon's future as a polygamist wife.
Yes, with four other wives and 21 kids 20.

(44:22):
Three children. O20. 30 Lordy 3.
Children. Oh lordy.
Oh my. Lord, 23 children.
Oh Lord. And Leon?
Says I like my big family, so I want a big family.
Well then. They laugh and then Maddie, one
of the others, says, oh, are the 23 kids Leon's or all of the

(44:44):
wives? And then Leon kind of chuckle
butts and says I do want a big family.
And they're playing it off like,oh, maybe Leon would be the one
that had all the kids. Gross.
It is a really weird thing for young people to be joking about
about having. 23 biological children it's a.
Very odd thing. So that's the only thing I get

(45:06):
out of this couch. Thing is, it's an odd
conversation after. Their athletic pursuit, Leon is
in the kitchen with Mother dearest and saying, you know,
being all disgruntled and a curmudgeon burber durber dur.
Oh, you know, we learned that Leon is driving a Robyn's old
beige minivan that has issues with windows and issues with

(45:29):
doors and no air conditioning inthe desert, blah blah blah.
And Meri told them that they could use Meri's car, but Meri
forgot she had a hair appointment.
So Meri says I'm sorry, I forgot.
Oh no. It's not cool enough for Leon.
No that. Minivan is not cool enough for
Leon and when Meri apologizes and says that she forgot about

(45:50):
her appointment, Leon looks straight in Meri's face and says
no you're not. And I was like, uh huh, what a
bitch. And then?
Leon walks off and rolls their eyes.
Lovely. Yeah, Meri.
Says Leon doesn't roll with the punches.
Leon just takes after their Mama.

(46:11):
Like, yeah, yeah, they get it. From me like OK they get it
from. Me, they got it from their Mama,
they got. It from their Mama they got it
from. Don't roll with the.
Punches just suck their Mama. Great story, Meri.
Yeah, very. Weird situations, very much time
filler like you're purposely putting on TV that your child is

(46:32):
being a straight up brat abouthaving a car to drive.
Not the right. Car not the right car?
Very. Unlikeable.
It's really interesting. I'm going to try not to harp on
it too much, but Leon is kind of chronically unlikable on this
show. And I've skirted the issue for
other reasons that I think people skirt issues with Leon

(46:53):
and I'm going to like take off my filter and Leon is unlikable
in this scene and Leon is unlikable in a lot of scenes.
So there's that. I mean, Leon comes across as a
spoiled brat, and I don't think it's just that they're coming
across that way. I think that they really kind of
are so. We've witnessed it, we've joked
about it before. And now I might take some of my

(47:15):
spice out of the After Meri gets her hair dead, she's
driving down the road in the car.
She's going to go meet the other adults to tour the in progress
home builds at the cul-de-sac. And it is a little funny because
as she's driving down the road, she's like, I'm going to come
blah, blah, blah blah blah blah blah.
She's telling us. And then and then the camera is
shooting out the, the windshield was shooting out the.

(47:35):
Windshield down the road? Yeah, down the road.
And Kody comes turning out of another road and she's like, oh,
there's Kody. Oh, we see.
His Meri Kay car with the top down just blowing in the breeze?
Yes. And it looked like there was a
dust storm up in the I was going to say the future in the
distance. And I'm like, Oh my gosh, she's
got his top down and there's a dust storm up there.
Imagine. Kody Brown doing his hair flip

(47:57):
repeatedly as a dust storms flowing through and just like.
And he's like, I will not put the top up.
I will not let my hair not fly in the wind.
Ridiculous. Once all the adults are at the
homes at the cul-de-sac. It also should be noted that
Leon was there. And I'm like, aren't you
supposed to be in school or something?
I don't know. Whatever.
I didn't even. Notice, Yeah.

(48:19):
Yeah, whatever. They go into Christine's house
1st and it's so funny because Christine.
Is Leon supposed to be a doctor and skipping school right now?
I'm so sorry to interrupt you, but Leon's meant to be a doctor
in missing school. Leon couldn't miss gym class

(48:45):
because that would have been an F.
They needed the minivan to get to school.
Oh. No, just to leave.
School. The two were the home.
Sorry, I interrupted. A good thing you had going
there, but my goodness, no, I appreciate.
The interruption because I suspect that Leon's not a doctor
today. So I don't know.
I suspect. Not so they go.
Into Christine's home 1st and it's so funny because Christine

(49:07):
walks into the foyer and takes a left into her library and Leon
is trailing behind and Christine says, Oh my gosh, the walls
are up. The other times I snuck in here,
they weren't up. And then it was like this moment
of like, oh shit, I'm saying this in front of Mona.
Like, Oh my God, I'm acknowledging that I've snuck
into the homes, Mona. Looks and goes the other days

(49:29):
you've snuck in here. Yeah.
What so? Good.
It's so good. And Mona is wearing a very
fashionable neon pink hard hat.
Literally like look at me. Neon pink.
Neon pink. Like she.
Keeps her own hard hat in her car just for these situations.
Yeah, I love it. I suspect the way she gets that

(49:51):
neon hard hat on is by wrinkling and twitching her nose
and going ink with her arms crossed in front of her and it
just magically appears on her head.
I agree. I think that makes the most
sense, Yes. It's like, oh, do you keep that
hard hat in your trunk? And she goes, sure.
And all the time knowing no, no, but I'll just say I do.

(50:14):
The next house they tour is Janelle's house.
And they review a bedroom that has a bathroom and they're
talking. It's, I think it's Logan's
bedroom and Logan's shower or whatever.
And Janelle talks about how she was fighting Kody on the idea
of having the number of bedrooms that he was suggesting because
they have so many children. But now she thinks he's right.
And we thought he was right the whole time.

(50:35):
Janelle, why would you want less bedrooms when you have all of
these children? Like, whatever.
I don't want to hound on her on it.
It's just kind of like, OK, you finally saw the light.
Like, give me a break. Yeah.
And everyone. Else is having the same amount
of bedrooms and you have the same budget, and it's just
bizarre. Yeah.
She just was trying to cut corners to save money, and it
wasn't needing to happen. It was silly.

(50:56):
Yeah, apparently. Hey, I didn't know if you knew
this, but Christmas needs to happen here to cement the idea
of a childhood home in their heads.
Just sharing with you again. Thank you for letting me know.
I forgot that our third home on this parade of homes is Meri's

(51:18):
house. Luckily all we do is go in and
she looks at the kitchen and she's like, oh, it's beautiful
or something. And that was it.
Thank God, because normally we would be beat over the head with
Meri's indecisiveness, unhappiness, complaints, crying
about her budget. Well, she's been.
Sneaking in and like, you know, dictating every, every step
that they take into her home. So at this point.

(51:40):
She can't be unhappy because she knows everything that's
already there. Yes.
Exactly. And then our.
Final home on this tour is Robyn's home.
And when they walk in, she's, you know, in the front of the
pack. She's got her hard hat on and as
she's walking through, she is crying.
And I feel like it's one of the first times we see Robyn where
she's actually crying out of like, happiness because of the

(52:04):
home status. Like she's like, it's beautiful.
And she literally looks like she's emotionally touched.
And that's rare because usually she's just pretending to be
emotionally touched. She does tell us that she's
intimidated by the costs, though, because, you know,
before she lived in a trailer with the space heater and now
she's got a real home. That's a.

(52:24):
Real home. And by the way.
She was in 1/2 house for a while and but I mean half house, I
mean her own mother. 'S home, Her own mother's
trailer No when? She rented the duplex and I
called it her half house. Like she's she just makes it
sound like she's how. How much of sob and Robyn's sob
story is really a sob story between?
Robyn and her sob story, they're showing clips of couch

(52:50):
moments. And this is where we get a clip
where Meri has this short curlyponytail and it actually looks
cute. And I've never seen her do her
hair this way before, and it actually looks pretty cute.
She's got a short little curly ponytail.
We're saying Meri. 'S hair looks kind of cute.
It looks. Kind of cute in this interview.
And then they do, you know, the
solo interview with Janelle and Kody.

(53:12):
And this is where she's got the purple Ursula eyeshadow on and
a purple shirt that matches it.
And it looks like she just rubbed her finger and purple
eyeshadow aggressively and then rubbed it on her closed eyelid
or open eyelid aggressively and said, I'm ready, I'm good to go,
I'm good to go. See, Kim, we're doing this right

(53:32):
now because it does look like when a kid is playing with
makeup and literally like rubs it on their face.
Not only does it look like that on Janelle's face, but the
motions you were just doing, youdid, yeah.
I could have done better eyeshadow at age 6 than what she
has in this interview, and I am not exaggerating.
Yeah, no. It's not at.
All it almost looks. Like intentionally Like if

(53:54):
someone else did it you would think it was a joke.
Like is. This the end of the day like I
don't they leave these women outto dry like on I don't even know
over and. Over again and she's.
Wearing this like big purple shirt and this ugly purple
eyeshadow that's like almost to her eyebrow and it's like looks

(54:16):
like a square on her eye. Like she literally just rubbed
it with her finger quickly to get it on.
And then she's got her signaturedark black eyeliner around her
eyes that are beady and small and she's got this bleached
white white blonde hair and it literally looks like Ursula.
And I'm disturbed, yes. The ink was shooting out of

(54:39):
places and no places he wanted to be.
That look I don't get. It Yeah.
We documented the look, so yeah,keep your eyes peeled you'll
you'll see it. I had a.
Little bit of a mental breakdownwatching this and I paused it
repeatedly on different spots while she had half closed eyes
because I was so alarmed by it. I wondered if perhaps Robyn was

(55:03):
trying to start gas leaks in her home as well.
She would. Overturn the knob in Janelle's
place. Janelle's like I look fine.
It's like honey. Great.
I look wonderful. Let me steal your voice, please.
That's what Janelle should have
been doing that. Necklace with that voice would

(55:24):
have looked 1000 times better than that weird ass bear claw.
My sister wife's jewelry. So after Robyn is having an
emotional moment in her home, that actually seems like a legit
emotional moment, which was shocking.
It's more of. Fear for paying for her for
having to pay. For it, she is concerned about
the costs and she lets us know that because, you know, she

(55:45):
can't earn a dollar because she's never had a job, she can't
work. She's literally, she's just
insufferable. After we're done touring Robyn's
home, Meri lets us know that she's concerned about the wives
being able to see what each other is doing more when they're
in the cul-de-sac. She talks about the privacy,
what not. Again, she says she thinks it

(56:06):
may cause an issue when they get into the houses.
And then when she's wrapped up with going over this little
spiel about how she's concerned about the privacy and the
whatnot and yadda yadda, there's like a pause and then she
goes, and that's all I'm going to say about that right now.
And it's like, what the fuck? Like who says that?

(56:27):
That's all. You're going to say about it
right now, right? It's like who?
I don't even know. It's like when people are like,
I'm going to tell you honestly or something and it's like, were
you going to not be honest? I, I just, are you going to lie?
I don't really get the clarifier or the no, not the signifier.
I don't know what it means other than that she wants privacy
because she's talking to strangers on the Internet and

(56:49):
she's being catfished as we speak meanwhile.
She has this like fluffy weird gathered red Infinity scarf like
damn near up to her chin and she's just like, was it?
Homemade. No.
I don't think so, I thought it.
Looked like it might have been homemade.
It was. It was rough.
It was real. Rough, but yeah, she just
doesn't know what would happen if they just see what each other

(57:10):
are doing in their new homes all the time.
The other day. OK, our day with Meri continues.
Oh yes, it.
Does it's still the? Day with Meri in case.
You've forgotten where we were because Kimber and I are insane.
We are still on Meri's day and Leon and Meri are going shopping
at the local Hobby Lobby alternative for Christmas decor
and gifts. And what I mean Hobby Lobby

(57:31):
alternative. I mean, I don't know, like Pier
One Imports meets Hobby Lobby, like a smaller store, like a.
Weird locally owned home store that sells Yeah like mass
produced signs signs. In fact, at one point, Leon was
like, oh, this would be great for Mckel T And it's like a sign

(57:51):
that says dress or fashion or something.
Yeah. It's like and.
There's 17 million of them around the planet, ones that.
Look like they're faux burned on the side and like 16 podged
onto a wood thing. Like yeah, Meri talks.
About the upcoming empty nest or whatnot that she's
experiencing, you know, and thisis the whole thing is she does

(58:11):
realize Leon's going to leave tobecome a doctor if Leon can
continue to go to school and start breaking the rules and
being a little spoiled brat, right?
But she also says it feels weirdto start over.
If she was to have another child, then she'd be dealing
with diapers and sleepless nights.
And that just feels word to her.Word, word.

(58:31):
Very weird. Yeah.
Yeah. Start over with a baby, a babe,
a babe, a babe, and then have 18 more years.
Yeah. Maybe he's too old for that
shit. And Leon has to let us know I've
been praying for my mom to have another baby probably since
I could even start praying. So I just continue to hope.

(58:56):
Oh, OK. Very touching.
As we know, as we know, as we. Know cut to evening at Meri's
home. So luckily this day is about to
end. You guys, I swear to God, we're
going to. We're almost done Evening at
Meri's. I think you've made.
It this far, just stick with us to the end.
Evening time at Meri's, Leon is rummaging through a stack of

(59:18):
Christmas totes that are opened and there's Christmas crap
everywhere. Just Christmas, Christmas,
Christmas and Leon is singing Star of 1 Water.
Oh oh excuse me, I I I was goinginto the jazz rendition.
Kimber, will you please give us the version of what Leon was
singing while rummaging through the Christmas shit in Meri's

(59:39):
house? Star of Water *.
Of light, don't know. Oh.
Boy, just this like Little Hum alum in the long.
And then Kody walks in in. Comes Kody bursting through the
door, which I love because on Meri's day, well, I guess he

(01:00:00):
Kody wasn't with everyone their whole days, so I shouldn't even
say anything It's just kind of funny that Kody shows up after
like the sun's down and it's like, oh, the day's done and
here comes Kody honey, I'm. Home, honey, I'm.
Home and I had a hard day and now I see.
You putting Christmas lights away?
Leon's taking them all out. Kody shows up and says it's not

(01:00:22):
even Thanksgiving and you're already there in Christmas.
I come over to Meri's house and I didn't expect this, but I
wasn't surprised. Oh God.
And. Then of course, they show a
little scene of Meri and Leon and Kody sitting around, Meri's
going through the ornaments, etcetera, being all nostalgic

(01:00:44):
about Christmas past, and then Meri and Kody talk about their
separation. So this is a lovely transition,
yes. Their separations and Meri being
further away from the other wives.
And because of this, they do getsome more alone time.
And that means that their relationship can be a little
more special. They started somewhere and now
they're in a better place and blah blah blah yadda yadda

(01:01:07):
yadda. And I believed none of it.
No, it was all a lie. They were just talking about how
they're so much closer now that they have this time
together, away from the other wives.
And I'm like, Kody sees Meri once every three weeks and he
shows up at 9:00 PM and goes, why the fuck is Christmas going
there? It's not Christmas.
Like I just, I don't even know what that was all about other

(01:01:28):
than of course they have a made-up relationship thing to
keep up on the show like. Meri even admits at this point
that well, Leon isn't always here when Kody comes over, so
it's more special when they are here.
And then Kody says that them being so isolated with her being
the furthest away has helped their relationship to grow, to

(01:01:50):
have that separation again, to focus on their relationship.
And it's like, you know, marries the thumb on the hand just
hanging out over here. And it's allowing them to grow
totally. Meanwhile, they're.
Not close. So this is all bullshit, Kody
says some. Weird line about how you know
when they're thinking of moving to the new houses that all he

(01:02:11):
knows is that there's a utopia there and he's looking for it
and the the new homes are going to be a new chapter and yadda
yadda yadda bullshit. The new homes, the new homes and
the new homes look like heaven, yes.
They do look like heaven. He's hoping that it re
establishes their family culture on the cul-de-sac a.

(01:02:32):
Utopia A. Utopia on a Dead End St. in Las
Vegas? More like a mirage.
Exactly. Oh darling.
Very, very. Poetic there then.
Thank you. Thank you, I am a poet and I do
know it. So moving on to Mustard seed and
shit stain now because you know, I've now left the manosphere
for this episode. We'll see where I'm at next

(01:02:52):
episode. OK, I'd like for you to start
with your mustard seed, darling.
Ladies first. I am going to give my mustard
seed to Janelle. OK.
Number one for her amazing Ursula costume like that was

(01:03:13):
amazing cosplay, and I wish thatI could pull off a cosplay that
well, special. Oh my gosh.
She looked like a mess I don't think.
Ursula will ever be a cosplay that I can replicate as
amazingly as our Janelle did. But yeah, she's kind of sticking

(01:03:36):
to her guns with being like. Does anyone else realize we need
this other specific income like and then she also recommits
to Robyn's business while focusing on real estate.
Still logical. So she's putting her all into
the income that they keep repeatedly saying that they

(01:03:57):
need. Or at least.
She's saying she's going to do it.
She is. I was.
Supposedly, yeah. And she also didn't show up to
the house sites multiple times and stall on, you know, the
house is being finished. She also has her paperwork in
for approval. There's just multiple reasons
why she deserves it this episode.

(01:04:18):
So she is for sure going to get my mustard seed I.
Appreciate that mustard seed. Yes, I'm giving my mustard seed.
I think maybe only for the
second time in the history of my Sister Wives podcast to 1
Christine. I didn't really care for
Christine so much this episode.
What a shock. But I did acknowledge that I

(01:04:41):
owed her an apology for being ontop of her paperwork.
And because of that, and becauseI am a man who is unlike other
men and I am sensitive, and I can say when I'm wrong, I was
wrong to be mean to her about that.
And so I'm giving her my mustardseed as a sign of goodwill and
an apology, an official apology to Christine Brown.

(01:05:02):
I also thought it was funny whenthey went into their homes and
she was like, these walls were not the last time I was here.
Yeah. After like getting off Scott
free for being one of the peoplesneaking into the hall, yes.
She got away with it until the very end out at.
Herself, and she gave. Herself away yes and I love that
because sometimes that happensto me but I really appreciate it

(01:05:23):
when it happens to others so Christine you get my mustard I
also. Like the little Kiki between her
and Janelle after they met with Mona?
Yes, the little like Kiki they had in front of the real estate
business like well on the way to their cars while they were
like these other bitches don't have their fucking paperwork in
hello and now we're fucked because of it.

(01:05:43):
That was like a moment that I was living for both of our.
Seeds were there. Both of our mustard seeds, that
is. Yes.
OK darling, your shit stain. We've got a few options this
episode. Well, I think the obvious choice
is Robyn because there's, you know, over and over again for
her this episode. I am going to just go go bananas

(01:06:06):
here and I'm going to leave like a little banana smear.
Oh, God. And I'm going to go with Leon
00. Yes, I appreciate this.
I appreciate this. Because Leon's a spoiled brat
that got to drive a car to school and gosh darn it, it
wasn't the right car. Mommy, they are like Violet

(01:06:29):
Beauregard and freaking Willy Wonka.
You are getting to drive a car. Does it matter what it is?
Apparently to you it does. I just think they're so spoiled
and they just get in this situation.
I I don't even know. Did they not have better footage

(01:06:52):
to show of Meri's situation athome because they made Leon look
like a butthole? Yeah, that's.
True, that's true. But then part of me wonders,
like, is it that there's a lack of footage or is it just that
this is the way that they reallyare?
Because we've seen so many instances of them acting like a

(01:07:14):
spoiled brat. And not to mention, I was made
aware this week that somebody with the name Leon has blocked
us on social media. That's.
Crazy. Oh my gosh, a little bird told

(01:07:34):
me a similar story that Leon went on social media on TikTok
and said that they were going toshare their story.
They sound a lot like their mom,who's been saying I'm going to
share my story for a long fucking time and there's no
stories shared. So now Leon's going to share
their story. Well, I ordinarily would applaud
this. So I went to go look blocked by

(01:07:54):
Leon on TikTok, this podcast. Blocked by Leon.
I don't, I don't know. I feel like we've been pretty
kosher about Leon. So I feel like we've been.
Very generous about Leon's behavior and given Leon the
benefit of the doubt so many times.
And I did go on a few tangents about their behavior towards
Meri, specifically when it came to Meri's fertility, because

(01:08:18):
they were super insensitive to their mother and I found it
appalling. But I think overall, we've been
very, very kind. And the bull shirt situation was
hilarious. Now, I do applaud Leon for
cutting out any sort of negativity and that might affect

(01:08:39):
them today. Maybe they've never even heard a
single thing and just want nothing to do with it
whatsoever. And good on them for that.
So I mean we. Do make fun of their family and
their mom and you know, Yeah. So it's understandable, but it
gave. Me some like a very complicated
and mixed feeling but. It's a little odd.

(01:08:59):
Put a weird. Taste in my mouth.
Yeah. So if you notice us being a
little snarky this episode, it'scuz it's like, wow, just made
aware of something rather interesting.
Yeah, you. Smeared me a little bit of the
wrong way. Like, maybe not like a full shit
stain, just a little Hershey squirt schmear, right?
Like when you fart and it's whatever you fart and little.

(01:09:21):
Shit comes out a shark. Yeah, a shark.
A little shark. A shark for Leon Leon's a
little. Shark.
Yeah, that makes sense. If we sound better, it's because
we are. OK, so my shit stain is
definitely going to 1 Robyn Brown.
And now I say definitely. And that's funny because I could
have easily given it to Kody this episode, but Robyn for the

(01:09:46):
negligee doily top alone the. Manipulation.
The manipulation. On that deserves a shit stain.
Layered on top of that is the inability for her to manage her
own children that are way too old to be tapping on pianos and
yelling and screaming while little Saul is sleeping.

(01:10:06):
Even though Saul is sleeping on a king size bed all alone with
the blinds open in the middle ofthe day for her intentionally
causing a gas leak in every homethat she's ever been in to fuck
with her children, herself, andher spouse, and any help that
comes into the home. And then the fucking paperwork.
Her inability to call creditors
when it's the only thing that she actually needs to do.

(01:10:27):
They've already been building these homes for a hot minute.
We know that it's not even Thanksgiving according to Kody,
and they're putting out Christmas stuff so they want to
be in before they've got a month.
There's time that needs to be filled with efforts to get the
things done. Robyn has no real job.
She designed jewelry months ago and plugs something on a
website once a month. Like give me a break bitch.
And she's the. First person that's going to

(01:10:48):
have the house like done like and she's the builders the least
deserving. Yeah, the builders are the
furthest on her house and it's like, what the fuck are you
doing? She's so.
Wrong and then also thinking that all of the other family
members need to contribute more to the her brainchild of a
business while it is a family business.

(01:11:09):
So, you know, got to give her a little Sandy wipe for that.
She even. Manipulated her way into getting
her business instead of Janelle, you know.
So she's just gross all around and the fact that she thinks her
family members should do more to support her failing business
is ridiculous and I am calling it her failing business.
Robyn, you are a shit stain and you deserve it.

(01:11:31):
As per. Usual.
You are the biggest shit stain of them all.
Goodbye. Do we have any, do we have any
leaderboard updates from anybody?
If anybody's keeping track of our mustard seeds and shit
stains, I would love to know if Robyn or Kody is the winner at
this point. I mean, we're in Season 6.
We've got to have a roster. You know, I should have been
doing this, but it's too much work.
Yeah, we are deadbeat losers. That's literally.

(01:11:52):
The point and. This is you do come to us for
our expert analysis, but math I'm not any better at.
We're still deadbeat. Losers.
When it comes to the brass tacks of it all, we truly.
Are our Keep Suite moment this week is a YouTube comment.
Oh YouTube from user Ash FO 3II.

(01:12:12):
Now there's probably some sort of phonetic thing I'm supposed
to be getting from this username.
Like Ash Foley, it's probably just Ashley and I can't even
read. Sorry Ash Dash FO3II.
We do love your comments and so I have selected one from our
recent episode. Pilgrim Polygamist Stop and you

(01:12:36):
laugh hard to read Polygamist Pilgrimage into the past and
Ashfoe 3II says I have a friend whose game is to not only shout
out the camper name. So remember Kimber?
You were talking about camper names, yes?
OK, let. Me refresh your memories,
everyone Kimber and her husband play a game when they're driving

(01:12:58):
down the road when they see a camper that has a business like
a just the name of the. Camper, the name of.
The camper who? Kills it out Mountaineer Ash.
Foe 3II says I have a friend whose game is to not only shout
out the camper name, but to preface it with the word anal.
Anal freedom. Elite, yes.

(01:13:19):
Isn't the worst. I've heard yes 'cause they were.
Driving the freedom Elite Camp
elite. So Anal freedom elite, I love
it. And you know what?
Anal freedom elite feels right.
Feels patriotic, yes. Feels like we're going back to
God's country, Lehi UT. So thank you, Ash fo 3II.
And you know what? If you want to leave us a

(01:13:41):
comment telling me how to pronounce your username, go for
it. Phonetically spell that out,
please. Thank you so much for.
The love and the comments. Thank you again for your mustard
seeds and shit stains on our last episode.
It's been fun, it's been great. Hopefully you enjoy those towels
to clean up whatever you need to clean up, dear listeners, and
we will. Be reading some favorites in.

(01:14:01):
Upcoming episodes, yes. Maybe we'll stretch it out,
Maybe we'll dried out over Season 6.
Stretched it out over season 6 like this.
Show literally they take an entire season to tell us that
they're further along building the homes they were already
building so we could share some mustard seeds and shit stains
throughout the season. Darling, do you have any advice

(01:14:21):
for Janelle when it comes to her Ursula cosplay?
I think. That she just needs a skirt with
some fingerling tentacle is coming off, and then she needs
to swish and sway on the front of Kody's convertible as he's
driving in the windstorm the next time.

(01:14:41):
Then we'd really get an image that would be worth seeing.
I am visualizing it and it's quite something.
Thank you for that, honey. Oh, you're very.
Welcome stay. Blessed everyone.
