• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, before we get into our recap of this first
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: episode of season nine, Beatrice, I do have to ask
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: you if you have any takeaways.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: My takeaway is that Cody and Robin totally remember this
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: little secret elopement that they had at the fucking county office.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Like they're acting like it doesn't matter, but they're dressed up,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: they got a camera bag. I'm like, y'all, I can't.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know if anybody watched this back then and
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: was like sussing it out, because I'm watching this and
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I'm like.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I can see it all. Yeah, from the perspective of
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, it's so clear and the hell that
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: we've all been through with these hoes. Yeah, you can
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: see the machinations and what they were doing clear after.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Now my takeaway has to do with our girl Mary Ooh,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: her stank face, her hook face as we say in Hawaii,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Like just when Janelle was approaching her to see if
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: she could like give an olive branch and if there's
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: something that they can do in therapy to men their relationship,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: just like, the countenance of Mary Brown was terrible, so rude,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: very rude, very smug, very superior. It's as if she
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: feels like her alliance with Robin means she doesn't have
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to get along with any other wife. Yeah, and I
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: don't even understand why Janelle in this moment is groveling
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: in front of Mary and asking for some sort of reconciliation, like,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: what are we doing? Janelle? Is Cody putting you up
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to this? I'm not sure what's up with that.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Maybe Cody is putting her up to it because he's like,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: you need to get along with all them wives, and
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: she's like, Okay, I guess I'll start with Mary.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I didn't know if it was like some sort of
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: a plot point content manufactured by production because Janelle doesn't
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: really seem to want to be doing it and Mary
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: doesn't really want to hear it. Yeah, so I don't
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: know what was going on. It was very confused. But Mary,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: come on, man, Mary's such a bitch, not very kind
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: at all.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, So without any further ado, let's get into Sister Wives.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: He's a nine episode one in toutto.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: A Secret Marriage and Sister Wives Unseen, which is like
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: supposed to be about the tell all that's attached to
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: this episode, which was boring.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: A we're not going to cover that, We're not just
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: gonna cover the episode.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: There was literally nothing interesting that was talked about in
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: that stupid tale. Also, in the episode, we pick up
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: where we left off at the end of season eight,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: where we're still at the lawyer's office. We're signing the
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: divorce papers, which we already saw at the end of
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: season eight, like whatever, we have to watch Rob and
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: cry about it again because.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: It hurt her, the divorce her and she's sad for Mary.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: And then we have Cody and Mary going to dinner afterwards.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: They're hand in hand and Cody's making sure to let
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Mary know and the cameras know that we're not actually divorced.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Nothing's actually changed here. I still love you, We're still married.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: And then when they're at their little restaurant, Cody tells
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Mary that he's so proud of her because of her
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: commitment that she made to the family, and he's proud
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: to be married to her. And of course Mary laps
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: it up and it's terrible.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, And I think, to add insult to injury, Is
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: it like happening in the Rainforest cafe? I thought, Are
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: you guys at a mall? Are you guys at the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Rainforest cafe? I thought, Like, you can't take her out
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: to like a nice place. You're in Vegas. There's the
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: whole strip in everything. You can take her to a
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: great meal, But no, we're going to the mall.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Mary it's like a cheap, shitty cafe. That's what you deserve,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: that's all you get. And then we fash flash forward
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: two weeks later. We're at codyum Robin's house in their
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: beautiful backyard that was renovated with everybody's money, and Robin says,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: we need to chat. We need to talk to Mary
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: because the divorce papers or the divorce isn't finalized at
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: this point in time, but Robin has since filed adoption
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: paperwork or something in the state of Montana, where her
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: ex husband lives, and she needs to talk to Mary
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: about it on camera to make everybody think that this
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: really is just about the kids. It's not about Cody
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and Robin wanting to get married.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Did I wink out and go to some other timeline,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: because I don't remember that being a part of the
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: conversation at all. I thought it was like more about
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Mary going to the actual ceremony for Cody and Robin.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I know becomes that, but I think I don't remember
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the adoption. How can she put into adopt those kids
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: if their divorce is not final and their marriage hasn't
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: happened yet. I don't know.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a really weird, non sequitur thing
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: for her to bring up because they hadn't really discussed
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: that yet and it's only been two weeks since the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: legal divorce. But I think the reason why she brought
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: it up was for the cameras and for the fans
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: to be like, no, no, no, just remember this is
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: the anchoring thread here that it's all about the kids.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: But then it does turn into a conversation about Cody
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: and Robin's legal marriage.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Well, there was a comment that Robin made. It must
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: have been in this scene that I totally blanked out on,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: but she said something like, yeah, we want to wait
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: adopt the kids because their biological father hasn't even seen
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: them in two years. Yes, he's been absent, that's the
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: word that she used. And I'm thinking, but haven't you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: alienated him from his kids? Yeah, didn't you move from
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Saint George to Lehigh down to Vegas? I mean, has
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: he had the opportunity to have sufficient visitation with his kids?
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: You just want to paint it like this picture, as
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: if you've been abandoned, And ultimately she does allude to
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: being abused and all of these things, but like, we
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: never get to hear from the kids in terms of
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: their perception of their father, and certainly we never hear
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: from the dad, but like we're just like, don't do that. Yeah,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: don't act like he's absent when we all know you've
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: isolated him from his kids.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: It felt really icky to me. And then she was
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: also talking about how Cody is their real dad. She's like,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: you know, he's been there the last two years, he's
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: been there. He's their real dad. And then I think
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: we had like a little scene with Robin's kids where
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: they talked about Cody being their dad, and it was
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: kind of a non sequitur. But I'm just like, man,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: this whole thing feels really gross to me. And like,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: when you think about it from the perspective of Codium
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Robin just wanted to get married. Like they really are
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: just using the kids as pawns and cover a shield
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: for this, and it's really icky.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really really relative.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: And of course, you know, the moms of the family
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: are going to go along with it because they care
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: about the kids and they care about the family. But
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: in reality, it's really just for codyum Robin to seal
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: their marriage together. But when they start talking about getting
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: married and how it's just paperwork, it's just shuffling around paperwork,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: it's legalities, like it doesn't mean anything. Mary chimes in
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: and says, you know, I actually don't want to be
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: a part of that. I don't want to be there.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I don't want to know when you guys get married
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: because I'm having a lot of emotions that are coming
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: up from this whole legal divorce that I'm kind of
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: surprised by. And she says to the cameras, you know,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: I don't really trust myself to be a part of
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: this problem because you know, I'm going to think, well,
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: now you have two anniversaries. Now you've got two dates
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: that you'll want to remember. And Mary does stay to
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: the camera too, which I thought was interesting that if
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: she were Cody and Robin, she would want to remember
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: that day too. So I'm like, oh, okay, giving an
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: excuse for Robin and Cody to remember this day, even
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: though the whole episode is them saying that they're not
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: going to remember it at all.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: So let me ask you this as a little bit
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: of a sidebar, and definitely want to kick it to
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: everybody in the comments. If it's not about the kids, okay,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: And if it's about something else, what do we think
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: it's truly about, Because to me, it would either be
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: because they truly feel that they're soulmates and it's important
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: that they are legally married to each other because they
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: are so much in love, or there's something even more
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: going on. And I'm wondering if it's possible at this
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: point in the timeline, and we're in twenty fourteen, Like
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: is Robin and is Cody already thinking about how they
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: can take over this family in terms of legalities, in
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: terms of finances in particular, Like do we think this
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: is a master plan, is what I'm asking? Or do
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: we think it's just about love and the cats? What's
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the vibe?
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: It's kind of hard because I think that they're evil people,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: So I'm like it is sinister, like there is a
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: master plan to take over the family and take over
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: the finances, but I think I don't think they're able
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: to do that because if we fast forward throughout the seasons,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: like the other wives still have somewhat of a financial
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: independence and they still have access to some of the money,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I think it might.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Robin legally has more now and Mary didn't assert any
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: of her power in the divorce. Yeah, she didn't ask
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: for half, She didn't ask for anything to be deeded
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: over to her. So now Robin is in the power position.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's like more kind like power of attorney.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: I think Robin wanted to be able to make the
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: decisions over Cody, and then Cody be able to make
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: the decisions over Robin. So in that way, she doesn't
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: have to worry about the other three bitches and their
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: families and stuff and their legal power of anything. And
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: she definitely doesn't have to worry about Mary, because they
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: do bring that up in this episode about power of attorney,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Like Robin brings it up and says, you know, I
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: know that it's a big responsibility that once I get
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: married to Cody, like I will have to make the
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: decisions in case something happens to him, and like, I
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: take that very seriously. So she's aware of that.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Ye, And it's more than power of attorney though. Now
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: she has access to half of whatever Cody has access to,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: and Cody has access to half of what those three
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: women exactly have, and so that means now Robin has
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: a quarter of that right.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: So she gets to have it.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So I'm just wondering what everybody thinks. Do we
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: think that she's thinking like that now in twenty fourteen?
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm like if they're planning for that now, God,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: I'm like, well, what do.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: You have though?
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Like Cody's fucking broke. Cody doesn't have a job, you
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: don't work, you know, like what are you going to have?
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: You have this two point one million dollar McMansion for sure,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: but like how are you going to afford your house
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: payments and stuff?
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Well? Right now, they're sitting pretty and they're doing fine.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: How many episodes it was in the last two seasons, Yeah,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: I have like forty or fifty episodes. They're being paid
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: probably forty thousand each or more. So they're sitting pretty
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: and she's been sitting pretty for over ten years twelve
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: years now for now.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: But it's like the Tower of Bebylon. Yeah, yes, bitch, yes,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: So I'm just waiting for that to happen. What do
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: y'all think? I do think you're right, there's got to
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: be some kind of power play there.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's about the kids. I don't think
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: it's just about love. I think that they've both been
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: planning things right now in twenty fourteen.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see that for sure. And so after
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: their little conversation in Robin's backyard, then we shift gears
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: entirely where we have Janelle who's going over to Mary's
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: haunted house to talk about going to counseling with her.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: And this is something that Janelle has kind of mentioned
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: a little bit in the last few episodes. You know,
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: she's been seeing the family counselor Nancy individually, and she
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: is ready to take the step to try and heal
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and mentor relationship with Mary. Why So she goes over
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: to Mary's house and already the vibe is awkward as fuck,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Like it's tense. She has to knock to enter the
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: house because you know, God forbid, we're family or whatever,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: we have an open door policy. We've got a knock
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: at the door. Mary opens it, she's awkward, and Janelle's like, look,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know how to say this. I'm a little uncomfortable,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: but I would like to try and work on things
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: with you and maybe go to counseling. And Mary already
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: has a stank, fucking face, and Janelle was hoping that
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: this would go over okay, but she wasn't necessarily sure
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: how Mary would react to it, because apparently, according to Janelle,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Mary has tried to extend all of branches in the past,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: and Janelle has kind of blown them off or rejected
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: them because she wasn't necessarily ready to work on things
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: at that time. But she's ready now. So Mary invites
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: her in and is like, well, you want to sit down,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: maybe we can talk. Janelle thinks like, oh, maybe it'll
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: be maybe it'll be good, and then Mary immediately is like.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: Can I be honest with you? I kind of gave
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: up on that and I haven't really wanted that for
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: quite some time.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for at least the last years.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Like that, they's just a nicer way to say something
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: like that, especially if Janelle is being authentic. Well maybe
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: Mary doesn't think Janelle is authentic, or maybe Mary is
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: dubious for some reason based on their relationship, because we
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: know that it was extremely volatile in the early years,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: and we know that in particular, Mary lashed out a
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: lot at Janelle, and so Janelle harbored offenses for a
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: long time, refused to reconcile. But now maybe she's ready.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: But Mary's like taking the opportunity to with hold again.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: And be a bitch. Yeah, And Mary says she's been
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: in therapy for the last eight years.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I can't tell, honey.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: And she even says, like, I've been in therapy for
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: the last eight years, and through the last eight years,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: I've become aware of the things that I've done to
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: hurt Janelle. So don't say that, Okay. So you went
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: on for how many decades completely unaware of how much
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: of a big, old fucking bitch you were and how
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: mean and hurtful you were to Janelle in particular, and
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: so in the last eight years you've come to realize that.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: And then I guess I'm assuming in this last eight
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: years she's tried to extend all of branches to Janelle.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Janelle has rejected it or blown it off or whatever.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: So I don't understand why Mary wants to sit on
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: a high horse here and be bitchy like this and
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: be like, well, you know, I've actually lost interest, Like
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: are you gonna.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Stick with it? Like are you going to be open
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: and transparent? Like are you? I know, her walls are
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: constantly up.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: And Janelle is nice about it. In the moment, She's like, well,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: you know, I didn't become self aware of my own
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: feelings until the last year, Like I had to work
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: on actually acknowledging how I felt even all those years ago,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: because Janelle, it seems, likes disassociated or she's completely disconnected
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: from everything because she didn't know how to deal with
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: any of it. And Janelle's really kind. She's like, you know,
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: we didn't have a lot of resources, we didn't have
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: a lot of help back then, so there was a
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: lot of things we just did wrong because we didn't
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: know how to handle these situations. So I'm wanting to
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: work on it with you now. And Mary's like, well,
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: I'm gotta think about it because I need to know
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: if I can trust you.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: And based on the previews, she comes back after losing
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: her h pylori weight of thirty pounds over weeks and
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: tells Janelle she's gonna be okay with counseling, so she's
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: gonna make Janelle wait a long time for an answer exactly, Yeah,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: which is so lame. It's kind of vindictive. Yeah, it's
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: kind of manipulative.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm just like, where do you get off
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: on that when you're the one that hurt Janelle. It
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: sounds like.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: When I just kept thinking back as I was watching
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: this to the recent McKelty interview with Cults to Consciousness,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: which by the way, we watched on our Patreon and
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: we reviewed. But like mckelty's like, Mary is mean. She
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: was mean, She's still mean to this day. She's a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: mean woman.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: I was like, ooh, and you know what, I can
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: see it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: I fucking believe it, especially if it took you, I
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: don't know, however many years to realize.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm abusive, I guess, yeah.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Which is just crazy to me. I'm like, how can
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: you go through life that long, acting and reacting the
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: way that you do, and then not realize until you're
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: in your forties that you were being a bitch? Like okay,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: miss me with that. And so after Janelle leaves, then
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: it's like the next day or whatever, Mary gets an
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: email that the divorce papers are finalized. She's in her
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: sad little office in her haunted house, all by her lonesome,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: and she's feeling a lot, obviously because it's kind of
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: a big deal to have these divorce papers finalized and
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: to read the legal language, which is just crazy and
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: basically Mary gave up all her rights when this divorce,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: which is so fun.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: She's well done.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: She's so stupid. And Mary does say to the cameras
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: that she is kind of upset by how much this
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: has made her so emotional, like everything that's brought up
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: from this divorce, Like she's like, shouldn't be this way
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: because I know we're still married. We have a little
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: conversation about eternal marriages and what aub believes and blah
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: blah blah. We have to hear from all of the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: other wives and how their marriages are still valid and
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: still true.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: It's my truth.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: There's a reason Mary is this emotional, and it's because,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: vibrationally speaking and in the energy, she knows what's going on. Yeah,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: And we believe that Robin and Cody behind the scenes
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: have been pressuring Mary, and Christine confirmed this in her
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: recent book. They were pressuring Mary to legally divorce Cody,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: and so she knows intuitively or just straightforwardly that she's
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: been pressured to do this. There's a reason for that.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And as much as Cody might have promised that their
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: marriage was going to stay the same or get even better,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: she does not believe it and that is why she
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: is so mournful.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Of course, yes, And it's a big deal regardless, like
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: even if they did have a healthy marriage at this
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: point in time, like they didn't, they didn't, but even
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: if they did, having that legal divorce be finalized like
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: this after however many years I think it's been twenty
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: or twenty four or something like that at this point,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Like that's a big deal, yes, And so she's feeling
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: a lot, and she decides to call Robin over and
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: she wants Robin to be the first one to know.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: So Robin comes over and she's like, what what's up,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Like why did you call me? And she acts all
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: clueless or whatever, and Mary tells her it's final. Robin
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: immediately looks uncomfortable, and then she says to the camera
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: something like, you know, this isn't proper. Cody has to
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: be here. I don't know why she called me first,
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: which I thought was kind of interesting. So I'm like, well,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: you're a part of the.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Process and your friends.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: You guys are friends at this point, so like, yeah,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: of course she's gonna call you because she can relate
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: to you more on emotional level than Cody. And then
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: when she inevitably calls Cody over right after she tells him, yeah,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: the divorce is final, and he's like okay, like no
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: big deal, no comfort or anything. He doesn't even go
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: up to Hugger. He just sits there and he's like,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: all right, cool. So now on process too, we gotta
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: get married, and then process three, we gotta adopt them kids.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: And he's just very clinical about it. I think he's
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: putting on that as a as a facade.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely performative. He wants everybody to think that
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter to him that he's gonna be marrying Robin. Now,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: it's not that special. It's just a legality. It's perfunctory. Yeah,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: but it's a show. It is a show. It's a
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: performance totally. And I think Mary can see right through it.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: For sure, totally because when they're in their living room,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: the three of them, Mary brings up, I've decided actually
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: that I do want to be a part of your
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: guys's marriage ceremony. I think that that would be really great.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: I've thought about it. I know I've been emotional, but
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: I think I can put my emotions aside and I
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: want to be there because we're a team and this
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: is a team decision and whatever, and Robin agrees on
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: camera right performatively, she.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Says, they have already talked about it though, and you
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: know it behind the scenes beforehand totally.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: And you can even tell with Robin, even though she's
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: putting on this performance, like she agrees and is in
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: support of Mary being there, you can tell her and
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Cody have discussed this ahead of time. And Cody, of
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: course is the one that brings it up. He's like, well, actually,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I've been thinking about it, and we don't want you there.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: You're not allowed, right, And the way he frames it
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: is like, if you're going to be there, then Leon's
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: going to be there, you know, if the kids are
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: going to be there, then the other kids are going
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: to want to be there. And if you're going to
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: be there as an og wife, then the other two
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: will want to be there. Maybe, like and it becomes
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: this bigger thing than I want it to be, because again,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: we just want to emphasize how much of not of
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: a thing this is. Yeah, but what's really happening underneath
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: all of that is Mary, You're not invited. This is
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: going to be our actual sacred ceremony that we're going
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: to share together and you're not going to be there exactly.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: We never wanted you there to begin with.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: We were actually glad when you said you didn't want
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: to be there, because we had already planned for this
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: to be a beautiful ceremony. So it's crazy how quickly
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: he shot that down and how much of a discussion
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: we have about his reasoning for it. And like, you know,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: on the surface, I could understand it, because he doesn't
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: want it to be a big wedding and he doesn't
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: want a thousand people at the county off watching their
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: little elopement. I get it, but I don't believe it.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: I don't believe it at all. And at the very least,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: you could have just had Mary.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you could have just three of you. She could
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: have been the witness.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: He does bring up the fact that Robin apparently wanted
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: her kids there with her and Cody, and then Cody's like, well,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: but then I'm thinking, you know, Leon's got to be there,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: and Mary and blah blah blah and all these people,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: and that's too much. And I'm just like, huh, of
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: course Robin would want her kids there, and of course
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: she's framing it like I want the kids there because
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: this is really about them, it's about the adoption. But
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I think Robin, the other sinister plot over everything, is like.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: This is our family.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: We're the real family, y'all are not a part of it.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: M h.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: And so Mary feels rejected in this moment because she
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: had come to terms with being there and Cody told
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: her no, and Cody's like, you're not being rejected Mary,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Like it's not a big deal, Like this isn't no wedding,
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: this isn't a ceremony. We're not going to remember the date.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: It's not important at all. We already had our wedding.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: It's done.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Mary, you've been had, Honey, you've been bam bozo.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: It's so bad. Then, of course, Robin, being the manipulative
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: shrew that she is, she's like, well, I'm.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: So confused because this is an active unity, not an
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: active separation. And I actually agree with Mary being there.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: And Cody's like, no, I'm the patriarch. We're not gonna
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: have it. And Robin's like, okay, all right, I'll accept it.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: But you know, when they're home alone together, she's.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Like, great job, I'm gonna give you a blow week exactly.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: It's crazy. And so then we have another time skip.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: It's been over four weeks since the divorce has been finalized,
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: and now Robin and Cody are going to get married.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: And my thought is, like, didn't you want to get
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: married like right away? Like wasn't the whole point of
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: like getting divorced having it be finalized so that way
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: you could get married immediately. Why wait such a long
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: time to draw it out. And when we see them
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: finally getting married, Cody and Robin drive separately to an
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: undisclosed location meet up, and then they get in Cody's
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: car to drive to the county office, all secret like
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: because they don't want anybody to know where it's at.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: They don't want any of the family to know what
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: the day is they I mean, apparently nobody knows that
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: this day is the day that Cody and Robin got married,
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: so it is super secret. So they meet up, they
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: go to the county office. They're also dressed up. Yeah fancy,
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: like fancy, Yeah, Cole's fancy right exactly. It's nothing crazy,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: but like they're wearing nice clothes. It's not like they're
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: wearing like pajama pants or whatever, go into the county office.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Cody's got his hair slicked back. She's got her hair
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: and makeup done, and her nail's done. Cody has a
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: camera bag. We're pretending like he's not carrying that, but
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: he is totally carrying a camera bag. And then they
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: go into the county office. Cameras were not allowed apparently,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: and they get married, and then we hear from Cody
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: and Robin on the couch saying it was very lackluster,
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: which is what they wanted. There was no pomp and circumstance.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: But I'm like, okay. And I was actually on Reddit
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: and people had said that Robin has the marriage license
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: or the marriage certificate framed in her house really from
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: this day, oh man, that people have sleuthed so she
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: hasn't framed, which means that there's probably pictures of this day,
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: of course that she has framed or like put in
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: a photo album or whatever. And I was like looking
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: up the anniversary dates because I was trying to see
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: if anybody made any correlations. Like I wondered if they
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: had waited four weeks for a specific day, for like
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: a special day for them, maybe it's a day that
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: means something special to Cody and Robin.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Well, Robin is a lee U and I looked at
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: the date stamp on the legal divorce. It was like
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: September seventeenth, twenty fourteen or something like that. Four weeks
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: later would be sometime in October. Yeah, And is that
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: when they got married or did they get married in November? Well?
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: I think it. Google says December because they had two
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: weeks to wait for the or two plus weeks to
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: wait for the divorce to be final, and then it
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: was four weeks after the divorce being final, so I
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: think that would push it into December. Google said they
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: got married on like December eleventh or something like that
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: of twenty fourteen. So I don't know if that means
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: anything special to Cody and Robin, but my psychic vibe
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: is that it does. Probably they probably waited for a
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: specific day that they like picked out or whatever, and
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: this is their real marriage or something, because why else
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: bring the cameras.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: It's so diabolically, it's so crazy, just lying to everybody's
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: face in the family who cares about us? No, Yeah,
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: like lying to the entire family, lying to marry de
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: emphasizing the sacredness of that day and then going out
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: of their way to be so secretive about it and
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: frame things and take pictures and dressed up and were
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: their kids there.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: I was also thinking that too, because she drove there
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: in her minivan, right, So I'm like, what if the
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: kids were told to like keep their heads down, you know,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: like we're gonna transfer over into Cody's shitty lexus, right pretend,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: or maybe they told the camera crew like we don't
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: want the kids to be on film or something. I
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: wouldn't put it past them to have the kids there,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: but yeah, this whole thing felt really diabolical. And then
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: after they get married, you know, they're all very lovey
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: dovey about it. I think they're in the parking lot
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: or something and Cody says congratulations to Robin for getting
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: married to him, And it's just so gross. And I
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: can't imagine how the og wives felt watching this back
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: like when the original episodes aired, because I would be
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: so upset. But I know that, like at this time,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: the wives and the family are manipulated to think that
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: it was supposed to be seen because they didn't want
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: to make a big.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: Deal about it.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It just reminded me of Season one
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: with the wedding dress, and now they were very secretive
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: about that, and now that really hurt Christine in particular.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Like I think, whether they're going to show this on
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: camera or not, which I doubt that they will, but
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: I think it's going to hurt at least Christine. It
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: is hurting Mary. Mary did want to be there, and
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: she expressed that, and after everything she did for you,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: you could have at least thrown her that little bone
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: to make her feel like she was a part of
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: this thing, but you didn't, yeh. Like I would imagine
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: there was hurt across the.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Board one hundred percent. I mean, the whole thing is
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: just terrible. I do know that when they have the
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: kids get adopted, they do invite the whole family, So
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: the entire family fills up the whole courtroom and everything,
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: and so they do make them a part of that process.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: And I think at that time maybe the family probably
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: just used their cognitive dissonance. They're like, Okay, even though
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: this whole situation feels weird, at least we're involved in
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: the adoption process, and it's like really great for the family.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: But we know as the viewers that this is where
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: everything starts to go downhill. Cody starts like neglecting all
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: of the wives and all of the rest of his children.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: And I forget whether we read about it in Christine's
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: book or whether Mary addressed this directly, but Cody had
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: been promising Mary up unto this point, up into the divorce,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: like if you do this, like it's it's going to
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: be so great. And I promise you. I know we're
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: having issues right now, we don't spend a ton of
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: time together, but I'm going to be coming over more.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: It's going to clear the way for so much more
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: peace in the family. That's going to be so good
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: for me and you, and I really want to I
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: really want to get closer with you, Like he made
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: her these promises that he was going to really focus
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: his attention on their union, and then I think in
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Christine's book she's like, within a couple of weeks he
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: was ghosting her. Oh yeah, he was gone, gone gone.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: I think talked about it in her book, and I
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: think Mary also mentioned it in the most recent seasons.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think did she connect it to the actual divorce.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: I think so Okay, I don't remember.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: I can't remember.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Because we've watched so much of this and so much
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: much of it is like repetitive crap. But like, yeah,
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: I think she did mention it a little bit because
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: they talked about Cody slowly moving all of his shit
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: out yea, And so it was after the divorce like
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: where he started moving everything out. Of course, you know,
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: people want to say it was the Cafish and that
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: was the reason.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: It's like, no, well, and Cody claims that she kicked
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: him out right, but maybe it was like the final
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: box of things that he had in her house. She's like,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: just get it out of here already. I don't know.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: We're going to watch it hopefully this season and next season.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: But it's just really sad because in this moment, in
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: this episode and in the last episode, like we can
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: see Mary believing them, yep, believing what they're selling to her,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: and in very short order she's going to be sucking
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: on a banana in a tub with her h Pylori. Yeah,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: because she realizes these people took me for a.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Well, and I wouldn't put it past it, Like I
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: think at this point in time, this is when Cody
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: and Mary stopped having sex. I want to say, no,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: it was before this, It was like way before the Yeah,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: so like you're not having sex, you're not having an
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: intimate marriage, you don't really hang out with her very often,
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: you don't take her out on dates.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: He does not like her.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: And then we haven't even touched her. Yeah, it's like
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: it's terrible, Like no wonder. Mary's having a hard time
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: and she's going through menopause and her kid moved out,
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: so she's alone in this.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: She menopause right now.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: She's in her forties, so yeah, probably well, I mean
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: Perry menopause.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Maybe Perry menopause. Yeah, and she's going to go in.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Their fifties, right, I don't know. Some go early, yeah,
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: mom early?
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Some do?
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: So she she well she does.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: And I don't want to say it because I say
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: inappropriate things and I don't want to be offensive. But
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: she does kind of have like menopause face yeah, and
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: menopause body. So maybe she is also like extremely hormonal
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: at this time in her life and horny and just
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: say something little, let's touch it just a little bit, please.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Just a little bit. It's really just so diabolical and
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: it just gives so much credence to the fact that
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: Cody and Robin are possessed by demons and they're evil.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they were bad for a long It's not
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: like COVID changed Cody. I assert that they were planning
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: this a long time before this actual divorce took place.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even up to their win their courtship, like him
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: going and spending weekends down in Saint George, like you know,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: you guys are fucking like you're having an affair. It's
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: just so messed up.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: The whole entire stace, siphoning the money at this time, Allegedly,
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: he's funneling resources, he's collecting his assets. It's all happening
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: right about now because now they're legally married, they can
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: do it, yep, exactly. And then Janelle's going to cover
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: for them.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Yep, she totally is, because he's banging her back out
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: at this point in time, and she's probably getting the
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: money that she wants or whatever, and so he's satisfying her.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: So that way she keeps the peace, or tries to
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: keep some of the peace.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: She keeps this secrets to financial secrets.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: That and so that's why it works out for now.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: Yep, for now, it's terrible. Well, I think that concludes
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: the episode. But I know that you watched the tell all.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: I did not because I could not be arsed to
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: do so. Was there like anything at all that was
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: of interest or that we don't know.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: The only reason why I watched it was because it
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: said Sister.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: Wives raw tell all raw. Oh my god, like.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be unedited, like you know, unscripted. Whatever was it?
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: And no, and it was. It was weird because it
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: was a forty minute tell all, but it was like
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: a compilation of all of the tell alls from seasons
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: one through eight.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, so it was like.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Random like little spurts and stuff, and I'm like, this
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: is stupid. There were only a couple things that kind
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: of stood out to me when I was zoning out
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: watching this.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: They did say.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: In one of the clips that they would still choose
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: and live their plural lifestyle even if they lost their faith,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: even if they stopped believing and stopped going to the
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: aub church. Like they said that, and it was all
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: of the adults saying that, and of course Tameron Hall
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: was pushing back on it, like why, like isn't that
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: the whole point of your lifestyle is like it's a
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: religious thing, and they're like, no, we love it, we
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: love our family, and our love will trump anything else.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: I just thought that aged like milk, because obviously everybody
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: lost their faith in Seasons eighteen nineteen twenty, and they
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: don't live this lifestyle at all, and they don't even
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: act like a big plural family, like everybody's super separate.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Well, Mary lives the faith, Mary believes, and I think
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Janelle got her spiritual release because she wanted to be
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: in compliance with her faith. So there's a couple of
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: people still out there trying to live, trying to make
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: it to co lobes.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: But they're not like acting like a plural family absolutely,
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: And so if that's a tenet of your faith, then
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: why don't you try to hang out together. But like
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: everybody's just on separate areas of the countries.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: I'm drinking. Yeah, everybody's drinking in the family drinking.
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: And they just don't give a shit. And then the
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: other thing that I thought was interesting was that they
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: brought up My Sister Wives closet and at one point
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: they made a comment saying that because I think tammeron
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: Hall was like, do you believe this business will be successful? Like,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: you know, you guys didn't get the investor money, Like,
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: what's going on with that? And I think Cody said,
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: in the first year, my Sister wives closet made enough
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: to support one to two households in the family. So
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I'm like, huh, interesting, which means.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: So Robbin's house exactly and maybe a little bit extra
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: fake Mary or Janelle exactly. So they did bring that
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: up define support grocery build.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: Cody made it seem like it was enough to pay
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: all of their bills for that first year press x
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: to doubt exactly. I'm like, I don't think it made
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: that much at all. But that was it. I mean,
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: the rest of the tell all was like just pointless bullshit.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: I think this is like one of the last ones
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: that we have with tammeron Hall or maybe we have
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: a couple more after this, but it it starts to
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: ramp up to the point where the Browns are like,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: you're fired.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Right made it lady, You're not allowed.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: Because she was pretty harsh in these tell I was
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: like she was pressing them like a journalist.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: Should hello and to Sukiana, yeah, damn so that thank
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: you for taking one for the raccoon team and watching
• 38:20
