What does the nanny do? OK, so we're done.
0:13
Goodbye. You shut it off.
0:17
Do not twist my words. Do not.
0:19
Make me a victim, sweetie. Just look at the mountain.
0:22
That's what you saw that day. Just the knife in the kidneys
0:27
over all these years and the sacrifices that I made to love
0:32
you. The fifth episode of Season 5.
0:52
I wonder if that means something
0:55
clock. Like if you look at it and you
0:59
If you're listening to this
1:00
episode, good things are going
1:03
That's what I think it means. This is a good omen if you are
1:06
listening to this. Yeah, absolutely.
1:08
Good things are going to come your way.
1:10
Although based on this episode, you might be like, really, It's
1:14
not exactly the most feel good
1:17
through it. Yeah, not necessarily.
1:18
We both may have shed a tear or two.
1:21
And I suspect you're going to hear us.
1:23
Well, you're probably going to
1:24
So buckle up. Season 5, Episode 5, mourning
1:28
the loss. So right away from the title,
1:31
you know it's going to be good.
1:34
And I was a little thrown off course because we open at
1:38
Pinnacle Homes, which is the house builders, and they started
1:46
houses. And I was thinking, oh, we're
1:48
going to get some good stuff. Because if you've seen the show
1:51
before, you know that we get some breakdown moments from Meri
1:58
beautiful heart wrenching get dumb bitch moments.
2:02
Moments where you want to jump through your TV screen and
2:06
shaker. 100 yeah. And yet this one, we didn't get
2:09
a lot of that. And so I thought, oh wow, we're
2:11
going to go on this journey. We're going to have all of these
2:16
So we have more to look forward to.
2:17
All the more reason to subscribe to our podcast so you can hear
2:24
Meri. Yeah, the title, even alone the
2:27
mourning, the loss. At first I thought maybe it was
2:29
like a pun and it was like going to be mourning, like
2:32
sunshine, something weird. And then I actually looked up at
2:39
like mourning. Yeah, like sadness.
2:40
Like I should have been wearing all black right now with the
2:43
veil. Then I kind of was like, oh,
2:44
what are they going to be mourning?
2:46
Like somebody can't do something for their home?
2:48
Yeah. Yes, this one does jump all
2:52
around. Very weird.
2:53
Like I said, we open at Pinnacle Homes and all the wives and Kody
3:02
dream homes. Christine says this is going to
3:06
be a fun day. Yeah, well.
3:08
You know Christine, she's optimistic.
3:11
This. Is going to be a fun day for you
3:17
some, you know, things on the table, some granite.
3:20
What do they call them? Like little swabs?
3:25
Yeah, little. They're not swatches, but.
3:28
Samples. Samples, thank you.
3:29
Little samples of like stone and some other things that are
3:33
color, maybe some carpet swatches.
3:34
And Christine makes her decisions in no time.
3:37
They only show a clip or two of her and she's like, I'll take
3:39
this one and I'll take that one. And I think even Meri says
3:42
something like, well, that is brown and black and it's like,
3:51
out of her decisions. Miss Indecisive, you know.
3:54
She said something about like the the choices not matching
3:57
because of the brown and the black and I'm like, just shut
4:00
your mouth. It's not about you.
4:02
She's making the choice for herself here.
4:04
God. Well, Meri is abusive, so we
4:07
know that Kody wants them to just make a decision, which, you
4:15
she's like, it's not just me, it's a Robyn too, and points at
4:19
Robyn and then Robyn pretends to bite at Meri.
4:23
She went like a little at her, like finger that Meri was using
4:29
to point. Like she just thinks she's so
4:32
cute. Oh yeah.
4:33
Luckily we don't hear a lot from Robyn in this episode, so.
4:37
Thank God. Really Not like anything I
4:39
think. I'm literally thinking my lucky
4:41
star. When they're discussing the
4:44
budget and going through things kind of high level, we don't
4:47
dive into a lot of details about budget other than the reminder
4:52
And at one point later, Christine talks about how if
4:55
they were different families, the budgets would be different.
4:57
I don't really get the point of
5:00
that hypothetical, but whatever.
5:01
I know it's like, duh, if you like, you'd be spending the
5:05
portions differently probably, but.
5:07
And you wouldn't be doing this together because you wouldn't be
5:11
Meri comments that she is working just as much as
5:14
everybody else. She's like, this isn't about the
5:30
we learned throughout the life cycle of the show, probably
5:34
contributed the most to the family part of maybe not at this
5:42
in, putting money in, putting money in.
5:45
So yeah, she has less children, but she is a financial
5:49
contributor. And it's funny how we waffle on
5:51
this, right? Because Meri's so annoying.
5:53
But then realistically, she does deserve to get what she wants to
6:00
doesn't deserve to get what she wants because of course I'm
6:03
like, yeah, you're earning the same amount of money.
6:06
You deserve to be spending the same amount.
6:08
But it's this whole idea that they're one family unit, and if
6:13
somebody does have more kids than you, wouldn't you be
6:17
offering up more like a percentage more of your budget,
6:22
knowing that they have more needs than you?
6:26
It's like a selfless act for your family.
6:30
Fuck the wet BA. Let's like make sure that the
6:36
kids in Christine's home aren't sleeping in the living room or
6:50
without or be put in situations where, yeah, like he's sleeping
6:54
in a family room or something. Like, you know, just it's
6:58
complicated and Meri doesn't make it easy to take her side.
7:13
unbecoming. And it's like, use your words,
7:18
is, you know, she's frustrated like you need a baby talker.
7:21
I think that the one thing that would be problematic for me is
7:30
have like a Louis Vuitton bag or let's say Leon got an
7:35
completely new MacBook and the other kids, they can't even
7:39
afford to have a computer at all.
7:41
Or we don't know yet. We haven't seen that.
7:46
But that would be one thing for me as one of the other moms
7:49
where I would be like drawing the line, OK, We can't be
7:54
spoiling one child more than the
7:58
more of the bread here. I don't know.
8:01
That would be probably one thing
8:04
differentiating the children. So.
8:06
Yeah, agreed. Yeah, at least it's not that
8:09
from what we know so far. I wouldn't be surprised if
8:12
there's an element of that happening, but it hasn't been a
8:14
plot point yet. It hasn't been brought up at all
8:17
at least, but. Speaking of Meri's work, while
8:19
they're at the table and she's
8:24
and whatever she says, I need to
8:28
It's like, well, that is kind of
8:32
The if you want more stuff, you got to have more money, at
8:34
least in America. And you're not from royalty,
8:37
even though you might think you are so.
8:39
Though Robyn has that Habsburg
8:43
And Christine is from polygamist
8:46
Meri, you're just going to have to work a little harder for
8:48
that wet box. Christine, we find out, is under
8:52
budget by 15%. But then she remembers.
8:57
Oh, no, I want tile in my dining
9:01
That'll eat that up. Yeah, tile in your dining room.
9:06
I'm going to have to see this.
9:08
Well, and it's odd because they're in the desert, so I kind
9:11
of feel like their homes are either tile or carpet.
9:14
Like I don't know that there's
9:17
I think it's just because that's
9:20
tile. You won't want carpet in the
9:22
dining room. I can see why she would want it
9:24
tiled if that's. Well, and is this going to be
9:27
Truly's room? Is this where Isabel's sleeping?
9:31
Like we don't know yet. Right.
9:33
Not sure whose bedroom the dining room is going to be.
9:35
Maybe it won't be. When she falls off that cot,
9:37
she's going to skin her knee. It's.
9:39
Like an hard fall out of that bed.
9:43
I don't know about tile, but we'll have to see you.
9:45
I immediately went to like a weird tile wall and I don't know
9:50
why. In my brain I was thinking like
9:53
backsplash something weird but
9:57
It's the floor. It's the floor.
9:58
Yeah. Yeah, that's funny.
10:01
Oh boy. So when we come back to Meri, I
10:03
don't know that we really heard anything from Janelle or Robyn
10:07
about their choices in this little meeting.
10:09
No, just that Robyn was having
10:13
Not as much as Meri, apparently,
10:15
And she was also hungry. She was trying to, yeah, eat off
10:18
of Meri's finger, Kody says to
10:23
Your budget is eaten up on the
10:25
Yeah, you Max your budget out on
10:29
that's not going to do. Oh God, which is classic, you
10:34
know, as as a woman with finer
10:38
finer things in life. I'm a little delusional so I can
10:41
identify it with Meri in this,
10:44
your whole budget on the first
10:48
thing. So, you know, we're going to
10:50
have to have some harsh realities coming to Meri.
10:53
She goes, I know Kody and the way she said it is so cringy and
10:59
it's like the toddler tantrum again, I know.
11:02
And she scrunches her face up when she does it too.
11:05
And it's like you and. If any of them need Botox to
11:08
stop scrunching their face, it's
11:10
Her, Yeah. Like you pointed out,
11:12
embarrassment. All of the lines and the like
11:15
things she does is not helping
11:17
No, no. And yeah, just the maxed out
11:21
expressions that she does like
11:26
girlfriend get it under control.
11:28
Yes, yes. Can't with it.
11:30
Oh it's great. So Kody's first suggestion to
11:32
marry to help her with her budget is to get rid of the
11:36
French doors. I'm assuming these are back
11:38
doors out of the house, like onto a patio or something?
11:42
I'm not 100% sure, but that's what I'm thinking because her
11:46
response is I'm not having a sliding door, Kody.
11:49
That is one thing I said from the very beginning.
11:53
I will not have a sliding door, Kody.
11:55
I hate them. I hate sliding doors.
11:57
Like bitch, what do you have against sliding doors?
12:01
The things that she chooses to be particular about are
12:06
sometimes literally hysterical. I have never been in a home, I
12:12
And I was like, well, this just really sucks like this.
12:15
Just chaps my ass to see this sliding door right here.
12:19
For like a multimillion dollar French, you know, Chateau, Yeah,
12:26
about like a normal suburban home in the desert outside of
12:29
Vegas. And if I'm being honest,
12:31
wouldn't a sliding door you can see out into your backyard more?
12:38
and why would you want that? And Kody says you're not going
12:42
to have all the kids running in and out of your house, so why
12:47
does it matter? And she's like I just said from
12:50
the beginning. So I'm curious if that means in
12:53
the past when she's had a slider
12:57
kids would slam? It and bounce back open or
13:00
something. I could see that.
13:01
I could see that too, but that's
13:04
Still doesn't make it's not rational, no.
13:07
Like when you're over budget and
13:09
shouldn't have French doors to the backyard.
13:11
Also in a ticky tacky house that
13:15
the desert, you're going to have
13:17
How often it's the fucking desert.
13:20
Yeah, I would prefer a sliding
13:23
that I could see my backyard and
13:26
I don't know. I just think it's a weird thing
13:28
to put your foot down on, especially if it's going to save
13:31
you a bunch of money. Like this door versus that one
13:35
is like a $3000 difference or something crazy.
13:38
Like duh, that's an easy decision for me.
13:41
Absolutely. I have no idea why you would
13:43
ever be hung up on this, but once again, Meri and her
13:46
particularities, she doesn't seem to be too particular about
13:50
her face. No, apparently not.
13:52
Other than that spray tan, she's
13:57
the potentially going into the race baiting territory here in
14:03
Meri. I don't know.
14:05
I don't get it. Not married doing blackface.
14:08
I mean, Oh. God.
14:11
Maybe going a little too far there.
14:13
No one is suggesting that on this podcast.
14:16
Never, never. When all of the adults are
14:19
getting ready to leave Pinnacle Homes, Kody tells everyone that
14:22
Mona says the most important thing to do is to keep their
14:26
credit in a good place. Don't let that slip.
14:28
Don't let that slide. Don't miss any bills.
14:30
Don't change your last name again, Robyn.
14:32
So I guess Robyn's still pre approved and they're hoping to
14:38
But after Kody says that Meri has to say the most important
14:42
thing for me is if I made the right choice on my granite
14:45
countertops or not I. Still don't know about my
14:48
Granite County top? Too late, you circled something
14:52
and move on. And it is not.
14:55
We have not moved on. Oh, we have not moved on.
14:58
They're going to be tears. There's going to be heartbreak,
15:01
drama. I don't know.
15:03
I've never built a home, but I can.
15:05
I feel like I can understand the experience of sitting in a room
15:09
and making choices from these selects.
15:10
And for some reason she's just, you would think it was like life
15:18
It's going to get meaty, it's
15:20
going to get juicy and it's going to get dramatic.
15:23
Are we talking like she walks in
15:26
like dies on top of one of her
15:31
No, but we will get drama when
15:33
she goes in. Oh yes.
15:35
Oh yeah. But we have so many more steps
15:36
before that. My God, bitch, please, I'm ready
15:40
for this. You know Meri can never be
15:41
happy. Her face has all the lines to
15:43
show it. And I can identify.
15:46
Crickets. We are blessed with a commercial
15:51
break, and when we come back, the opening is Meri cleaning dog
15:55
piss out of a rug. Scrub, scrub, scrub on her
15:59
knees. Now, if you've had a pet, we've
16:03
all been there. It's not fun.
16:05
I'm only laughing because it's
16:08
If it was me, I'd be going, God damn it.
16:10
Not a gun, you know. Chris knows all too well that my
16:14
little dog Goose has problems.
16:21
of them is that he is a teeny tiny little dog.
16:24
He is an Italian greyhound with toothpick legs that doesn't
16:28
like to go outside when it's a tad bit nipply out.
16:32
I'm just watching her clean this
16:36
big ass dog like the one she has.
16:39
That's why I was like, EW, yes.
16:41
Because I had a Boston terrier, Rebel would have his little
16:45
accidents every once in a while, but it was pretty reasonable.
16:48
I mean, small dogs, it's much more reasonable.
16:50
Meri starts talking about her dog Drake, who is a big dog.
16:54
I do you know what kind of dog he was?
16:57
He looked like a lab. Yeah, like a golden lab or
17:00
yellow lab or something. Yellow lab.
17:03
He's chunky. Chunky.
17:04
He's had a good life, he's a big dog and he's cute.
17:08
He looks like a big dopey friendly guy.
17:11
Like the kids could just run up and jump on him and cuddle in
17:14
and he wouldn't care. Yeah, he was like Roly Poly and
17:17
seemed to have a good disposition.
17:19
Oh yeah. But Meri talks about how Drake
17:25
that's usually a sign of things to come.
17:30
Yeah, I thought he pooped on the rug.
17:32
So I don't know, maybe. He did.
17:34
I didn't know. I don't know if she told us it
17:39
automatically my mind went to shit.
17:42
Shit, sure. Yeah, well, she was doing the
17:44
scrub the like kind where your shoulders and your Meri was
17:47
giving it her all. She was going at that carpet.
17:50
We find out that Drake is 12 years old, which for a larger
17:55
dog is old. Yeah, while discussing Drake's
18:06
old, and so he's been around their whole life.
18:08
Or let's say Drake came into their life when they were three
18:10
or something. That's still a dog your whole
18:12
life. So most of these kids only know
18:15
life with Drake. Yeah, essentially they're having
18:22
Are we getting to the point where we need to put him down?
18:29
They're just obviously talking about it.
18:32
And Leon does not want to put him down.
18:36
Leon is sad about it. No go, doesn't want to do it.
18:42
Meri feels like a cold hearted bitch about it.
18:46
But you made a little comment when we were watching about, oh,
18:53
Yeah, I'm like, Leon, you want to clean up that piss then or
18:56
that shit? Because as a mom for it, like
19:01
that's part of my thing too. Like when my kids are old
19:05
enough, if they say they want another pet, you know, you got
19:11
And most kids don't. Like my mom always said that to
19:14
us whenever we want a new pet. Well, you're going to have to
19:17
clean the litter box more. You're going to have to clean up
19:23
Probably not. Probably got yelled at it a lot.
19:28
couch with their legs crossed,
19:33
up the shit. Being like, I'm not going to,
19:36
I'm not OK with putting Drake down.
19:38
Like, okay, Leon, put on your gloves.
19:41
Right. Get your cleaning gloves.
19:43
Get out. That cleaner?
19:45
Get out. That putt cleaner?
19:48
Meri and Kody have some back and
19:51
Of course, you know, there's the
19:53
It's a big decision on what to
19:57
their faculties, and everybody
20:00
It's a thing. Well, Kody doesn't really know
20:02
what to do because Kody is a farm boy and Kody says that life
20:07
and death is just part of the process of being on a farm and
20:12
Kody was exposed to it a lot. So Kody can't understand Leon's
20:15
point of view, and Kody acknowledges that, which is
20:19
nice, but Kody just doesn't get it.
20:23
But also Kody says, well, I don't know what to do.
20:26
And I think Meri's looking to Kody to say we need to do this.
20:31
And you know, of course Kody is like.
20:33
He can't make a decision to save
20:35
And you, when you are in that position, if someone else is
20:39
there to say really, I think it's time, then that does help
20:43
you to make that decision. Like, I've been in that
20:45
situation where someone's like, it's time, and it's like, Yep,
20:50
it's time. Yeah.
20:51
And, you know, Kody's not the first person to grow up on a
20:53
farm or on a ranch where you have a less emotional reaction
20:58
to things with animals because
21:01
growing up. And so I'm not even really mad
21:04
at Kody for that, but he is annoying because.
21:07
Yeah. Because he doesn't want to be
21:09
the bad guy. He.
21:09
Never wants to be the bad guy.
21:12
front of Leon this is what we need to do.
21:16
Kody's letting Meri feel like a cold hearted.
21:19
Bitch, it's like, put on the pants, Meri.
21:21
Make a decision, Meri. God.
21:24
Kody. So Meri wants to call all the
21:27
kids over and let him know what's going on because her and
21:32
Kody discuss it. And Kody's way of getting out of
21:36
officially saying we're going to
21:39
well, maybe we should take Drake to Utah to put him down on
21:44
their property from the old house in Lehigh.
21:48
And Meri is like, well, I think that we need to call all the
21:51
kids over and let them know and let them say goodbye.
21:56
Kody, on the other hand, did not
21:59
Oh my gosh, he's ridiculous. He is like, we should just have
22:04
them notice one day and say, well, he went to Utah and he
22:08
didn't come back. He went back to heaven.
22:11
Oh, he went to heaven, yes. Back to heaven, as if he came
22:15
from heaven, and now he has returned.
22:16
Back to heaven. What a classic case of Kody's
22:19
avoidance. If we're going to be real, not
22:21
only can he not make decisions, but then rationalizing them,
22:25
validating them, discussing them
22:28
he can't. He cannot.
22:30
He's such a fucking. Pussy, yes, he cannot be
22:33
accountable for anything. He just doesn't want to look
22:35
like a bad guy to anybody and he's willing to throw all the
22:39
wives under the bus for every decision because this is when
22:43
push comes to shove, this is Meri's dog.
22:46
So if Drake goes missing and he just disappears.
22:52
Back to heaven. Back to heaven, then.
22:54
Meri's going to be the one that's blamed for that, and no
22:57
one's going to be the wiser. Yeah.
22:59
Oh, totally. Kody obviously wouldn't fess up
23:02
to being like, yeah, I'm the one
23:05
Utah. Right.
23:06
And so then Meri probably gets
23:09
killing of Drake. Yeah.
23:11
When in all reality that's not
23:14
And fuck Kody for even suggesting it.
23:15
Yeah, and Meri says that she doesn't just want him to
23:19
disappear on the kids. She doesn't think that's right.
23:21
And I agree with her. I agree with her too.
23:23
I think that's really awful to
23:26
opportunity to learn about loss.
23:28
That is one of the things about having a pet is you have to be
23:37
And the ugly is that their lives are shorter than ours and we
23:40
need to be there to say goodbye to them.
23:43
They deserve that as much as the kids deserve a chance to, like,
23:47
say goodbye. The pet deserves their respect
23:50
If they're part of your family. Which is like a family member.
23:54
So the kids do come over. They kind of show everybody
23:58
coming in and Janelle coming in with her purse.
24:00
Purse first. Janelle, she's always got a
24:02
purse with her. It's like, where you going with
24:04
your purse? Like, oh, just Meri's to see the
24:12
really get much dialogue from her.
24:14
It's just all of a sudden they're breaking the news.
24:16
She's just the one with the camera, taking pictures of Drake
24:24
Aurora's crying and. Meri's.
24:26
Upset, and Isabelle's very upset.
24:29
She's like beside herself. Red in the face, yeah.
24:32
And I think that's, I think Isabelle's the one where Meri
24:35
says no. I think you should take a photo
24:37
with. Yeah, she says that she doesn't
24:38
want to take a photo with him. And then Meri's like, no, I
24:41
think you should, like you'd regret not doing it type of
24:44
thing. Yeah.
24:45
And then Kody wraps up the scene by letting us know that Meri was
24:54
Yeah, and for Meri, and for you, if you were a human being.
24:57
Yeah. Oh, he's such a mess.
25:01
He is. The next morning, bright and
25:05
early, we're at Janelle's house. 04:45 AM.
25:09
We're going to the gym. I wish we just would have had a
25:14
shot of the and her hitting the alarm.
25:16
We didn't get that, but we did get her getting ready and there
25:19
was no sun. I thought it was night time as
25:24
going to be coming up. Janelle's going to the gym.
25:27
She says that the early mornings are the only time that she has
25:38
It's a good way to start the day
25:40
if your schedule allows for it.
25:42
That's great. Am I waking up at 4:45 to
25:44
workout? Fuck no.
25:46
Fuck no. No.
25:47
But do I like working out first thing in the day?
25:49
Yes. I would probably workout the
25:52
earliest would be like 7:00 AM. I did do a few 7:00 AM workouts
25:56
when the gym I was going to was literally in the basement of my
26:01
apartment complex and they had classes there.
26:04
I am a night person though I liked to go to the late classes.
26:11
yourself all worked out like tired and then you go home and
26:14
eat something and shower. Like I liked to end my day with
26:18
it always. Janelle is a morning person.
26:22
He brings us up a lot. Yeah.
26:23
And I'm like, God, 4:45 AM, You know, the crew was pissed that
26:27
had to come and film with her.
26:29
They were probably like, God damn it, we got to go film her
26:33
at the gym. Real early morning and also, I
26:35
mean, what is she going to work or something she can't work out
26:38
at 6:45? I mean, 445 is obscene.
26:40
It's weird, it's weirdly early.
26:41
I want to know what time she goes to bed.
26:44
Probably 7 like 7:00 PM one of those people.
26:48
She's like, I need the blackout curtains literally because the
26:55
early so I can wake up at 4:45 to go to the gym.
26:58
Yeah, weird. I'm like, meanwhile my 2 year
27:00
old goes to bed at 7. She's probably doing the same
27:04
thing. Yeah, oh boy.
27:06
Janelle fills us in that, you know, she's a stress eater, she
27:10
likes to eat, she's an emotional eater.
27:13
And how when they first started their gym journey back in the
27:18
day, the polygamist. Oh God, what was that
27:21
fundamentalist? Fundamental Fitness.
27:23
That she was 270 lbs when first weighing in with that with Bill,
27:34
But everyone kind of, I feel like they just kind of dispersed
27:41
We didn't hear about it. So she said she lost 10 lbs with
27:47
weight. It took.
27:48
Months to lose 10 lbs. Yeah.
27:50
And she said that she started her gym journey nine months ago.
27:57
six months in, she stopped and
28:04
and someone that would push her in different ways.
28:07
Now my brain is filling in the
28:12
open this gym together and it didn't work out.
28:15
And maybe they had a slight falling out with Bill or things
28:18
got awkward with Bill and she felt like she couldn't go back
28:21
to the gym there. So she just started working out
28:24
at home, she claims, and it didn't work for her.
28:27
So now she needs to find a new
28:29
She did find a new trainer and
28:33
what happened that she felt she couldn't go back to the gym to
28:37
meet with Bill. I didn't really think about that
28:40
during the episode, but that totally makes sense that yeah,
28:43
they were going to start a business.
28:44
Didn't pan out. Can't see Bill anymore.
28:47
Work out at home. Which, come on, Janelle's not
28:49
going to work out at home. Because isn't he kind of the
28:52
one, Didn't we hear a little something that he's the one that
28:56
pulled the plug, that the person
29:00
that was going to help fund the gym pulled out?
29:04
There was something that didn't go right.
29:06
Yeah, something fell through. I suspect that in classic brown
29:09
fashion, they were probably talking a bigger game than they
29:12
were ever going to follow through with.
29:14
And obviously they decided to go
29:18
because startup costs are so reasonable and Robyn's jewelry
29:21
designs are so inspirational. So, you know, not starting the
29:25
gym as a thing. I do suspect that was a hairy
29:28
situation, kind of like Bill's.
29:31
Never mind. Well, this is where we meet
29:36
Sean, and he's been working with her on more of a psychological
29:45
the psychology behind it and helping her, yeah, fix her.
29:51
And when she's introducing us to Sean and they're showing us some
30:04
weight. When talking about Sean, she
30:06
does volunteer that she has shared her cheats with him.
30:10
So the psychological work, she's being honest is what she's
30:14
saying. So she talks about how she
30:16
cheats when she cheats, all the decisions she makes, blah blah
30:21
a little less of a meathead. So, you know, I don't know.
30:26
He seems like he is being kinder to her in a sense maybe or like
30:32
she shared all of this with him and he knowing all of the times
30:39
that she feels like she needs to eat more or has binge eating
30:43
or doing, you know, the bad behaviors and he's being able to
30:52
this time, like when she's admitting when she's done stuff.
31:01
being a binge eater. And obviously she is, you know,
31:05
binge eating probably been like eating out of sadness and not
31:09
seeing a therapist. And that's a huge thing with
31:13
eating disorders. It sounds to me like she has
31:15
disordered eating, maybe not an eating disorder, but she hasn't
31:19
had a healthy relationship with food.
31:22
And she brings up that she's noticed her kids have become
31:25
couch potatoes because the separate backyards of all the
31:30
families, her kids aren't going out into the yard and playing
31:34
as much with the other kids. And that's got to be hard to see
31:38
as a mom. Like Oh my God, my kids are
31:40
following in my footsteps here.
31:43
Stuff. Yeah.
31:44
And that she hopes to join them when the cul-de-sac becomes
31:49
comes into fruition, that she would be able to be more active
31:54
with them and being at 270, her goal is to be down to 170 and
31:59
that's £100 to lose and it's a big goal, she knows that.
32:04
It's lofty. It's a lot.
32:07
It's been done. She could do it.
32:10
It's a lot. Going to the gym even 3-4 days a
32:20
So I'm curious to see if we notice a difference here.
32:24
I think I mentioned a few episodes ago that I'd noticed
32:27
she had gained weight back. And so this is kind of like, Oh
32:32
yeah, she really had. Because I felt bad even saying
32:38
And I really hope that she does
32:41
lose, you know, at least 2030 lbs even.
32:45
She'd probably feel better, right?
32:46
Yep, now we cut to Meri's house exterior, Meri's home.
32:51
Las Vegas. Kody, Meri and Leon are packing
32:55
up their SUV with Drake with the
33:00
him up to Utah to see their old vet.
33:03
Kody found a vet that would be
33:06
home to see Drake out in the property area.
33:13
They talk a lot about the county
33:18
how Kody did not feel safe for
33:23
Kody says that the County Attorney dropped the charges, so
33:26
he actually feels like he's able
33:29
and feels safe doing so. I want to know when they drop
33:33
the charges. I'm very curious because it was
33:35
such a big plot point for the longest time and now we're just
33:39
getting it nonchalantly dropped in here.
33:42
Yeah. For a visit, it feels like a dog
33:45
down. Not a very big detail like, Oh
33:47
yeah, Kody said. It took some coaxing to go back
33:50
due to his leaving and not really coming to terms with
33:53
leaving. But it was kind of just
33:56
mentioned, peppered in there with this like journey back
33:59
home. Almost like I'm distraught about
34:01
going home because I hadn't really said goodbye.
34:03
They dropped the charges and I'm
34:05
we're going home and blah, blah,
34:06
Like, okay, all right girl. I can't believe they didn't make
34:10
a bigger deal about it when they
34:13
were dropped. Yeah, of like Kody getting
34:16
something or hearing from a lawyer.
34:18
Right. It would have been an
34:19
opportunity for a Brown party or
34:23
that landfill. Something actually interesting
34:25
to learn about. Instead of showing them back at
34:29
the cul-de-sac for the millionth
34:32
like, guess what, We're not going to be going to prison or
34:36
something, but. Right.
34:37
Nevertheless, and we're back at the compound where America was
34:45
introduced to the Browns in a split level that is really three
34:51
apartments and one building. Meri says that her sister is
34:54
currently living in the house,
34:57
when Leon was wearing the no shirt, bull shirt, bull shirt.
35:02
Shirt Yeah, Rebecca and Nathan
35:06
They're living in the house so
35:08
property which which is lovely.
35:09
They must still own the property.
35:11
Yeah. And Rebecca and Nathan are
35:14
renting there or squatting there.
35:16
Yeah. Exactly.
35:17
They don't, you know, they spare us these details.
35:19
Thank God this is the first time Kody's been back to the home,
35:23
obviously since they left and we get to see Kody digging Drake's
35:29
great Oh. Yes.
35:32
They let us know that their dog alley is buried back in the
35:36
forest, which is a collection of trees in their backyard.
35:39
Now, when I was a kid, we would call it a forest.
35:42
I get why he's calling it a forest.
35:43
To the kids, it was a forest. To us adults that are watching
35:54
bury their dog alley there. Kody's talking to the camera
35:58
outside, near the forest or in the forest or wherever, and he
36:06
because of all the memories here.
36:08
My kids played. So yes, this is while he's
36:12
digging the grave. He's like a.
36:14
Dumb a dumb. I'm digging.
36:17
And my kids, they played here. There's lots of memories of the
36:22
kids that played here. Exactly, honey, you do a great
36:30
natural. And I want to know who digs like
36:34
Loosening the soil? Yeah, what the fuck was that?
36:37
He's being very high ho, high ho.
36:39
It's like he's being very animated and the cadence of his
36:43
talking with the hits of the pic.
36:46
And the hair flying down in the face each time, and him shaking
36:49
it back out of his face like he does.
36:53
OK, Kody. And of course he has to stop mid
37:05
circumstances, we never would have left Utah.
37:09
OK, Good story, Kody. Yeah, he says he didn't properly
37:17
Yeah, so, God, that's why it's so emotional.
37:20
There's something special and nostalgic about this place.
37:24
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to be in Vegas.
37:28
I like our homes in Vegas. But Yep, there's something
37:32
magical in the soil here. Like, have you ever seen Erin
37:38
Brockovich? There's definitely something
37:40
special in your soil, Kody. And if anyone's going to be
37:44
dramatic about digging a hole, it's Coyote.
37:47
Oh, Kody. It also looks like he's dug a
37:51
grave or two before because when he's done with that hole, I'm
37:54
going to give him props. It's actually a really good
37:57
hole. It's a big hole.
37:58
It's a deep big hole and it is rectangular shaped.
38:01
Oh, I don't know how he did that well.
38:04
He's gifted. He's buried many an animal.
38:07
When Kody puts on those work gloves, it brings him back to
38:11
the ranch and his dad's saying dig a hole for that dog bitch.
38:18
pasture, son. Got to dig another hole for an
38:28
like cool. Maybe his dad was like one of
38:30
those people that's like building holes, gives you
38:32
character. Building holes Building.
38:34
Digging holes gives you character.
38:37
I wouldn't be surprised. Yes, his dad was the notorious
38:44
fall far from that tree. Well, I mean, the movie Holes
38:47
was a very good movie, but that was part of the thing there too,
38:53
holes. Is this a horror film?
38:57
No blasphemy. Well, I've never seen holes make
39:01
I mean, it's a movie that I mean, you are a little bit older
39:07
This must. Be I'm going to show you after
39:14
tells us, As hard as it is, I've already prepared myself for
39:19
this. And then they're gathered in the
39:27
To Drake. Drake, I'm trying to harken back
39:32
That one of the. Family names.
39:34
And then an unknown vet and then a vet assistant.
39:37
Rick the vet. Oh, Rick.
39:39
His name is Rick. Oh, Richard Dick.
39:41
Yep, and the vet suggests it's more humane to let Drake go
39:46
because he's in pain. Yeah, he's suffering at this
39:49
point and it would be more humane.
39:51
Meri is. I'm getting conflicted again.
39:55
I'm getting conflicted. Oh, Meri.
39:57
Kody's like, well, you heard him.
39:59
At this point, it's better to let him go.
40:04
And Leon is sobbing. Yeah, I don't blame Leon.
40:09
I'd be a sobbing too. I'd be a mess.
40:12
Then they're all doing the whole petting and the touching and the
40:19
As the drugs are administered. And they show us.
40:22
Yeah. They show us little Drake, big
40:28
And like, why are they showing us this?
40:30
We were both crying and I, I said to Chris, I'm like, why are
40:49
us saying goodbye, but you guys need to step away.
40:51
Right. I wouldn't want to be filmed
40:54
during that and I wouldn't want my pet to be filmed during that
40:58
either because again, it's a respect thing.
41:00
They're a family member. To me, that feels like really
41:04
invasive and kind of just yucky. Like I get the yuck about it.
41:09
Like there are some things that don't need to be filmed all the
41:12
way through. We didn't need to see Drake
41:14
after he'd passed away, like right.
41:16
Right. A little fucked up business
41:19
there. Yeah, as far as I'm concerned.
41:25
down my dog. And yeah, you know, the memories
41:33
I don't know if I'm going to cry about it in this moment
41:36
because I did cry when we were watching the show.
41:38
I had some tears. I wasn't sobbing.
41:40
Thank God I wasn't pulling a Robyn.
41:42
But yeah, if you've gone through that, then you know, and it
41:49
sucks. Yeah, it sucks a lot.
41:52
And Meri, this is kind of funny, like.
41:56
But before she goes, well, we already had the kids all say
42:01
goodbye. Like she mentions it to Rick
42:05
before he says like, yes, he does agree.
42:08
Like he's suffering. We should put him down.
42:11
Oh, OK. She's like, well, we had the
42:13
kids say goodbye. Like if I bring this dog back
42:17
home right now, it wouldn't be good.
42:19
Like, you know, you can see like the wheels in her mind, like,
42:23
oh, shit. Like I don't want to just put
42:26
him down to put him down. And I don't want to be like
42:29
evil, but Oh my God, now I had all these kids say goodbye.
42:32
If the vet doesn't say that we should say goodbye.
42:34
This would be fucking awful. What if Dick was like, guess
42:37
what, he's going to be fine, we just want.
42:40
To give him these vitamins for his hips that are hurt and he's
42:44
good, yeah. Just shove a plug in the back
42:46
and give him these vitamins and you're good to go.
42:48
Like, Oh no, Oh no, Oh no. I just went through something
42:52
similar too though where my cat had like a really awful scare
42:59
and completely looked like fucked up like something was
43:04
wrong. And I it was on Easter so of
43:07
course it's like a emergency vet visit on a holiday on a Sunday.
43:10
My kids are dressed up to go to
43:12
Easter brunch and I literally made them come and say goodbye
43:15
to our cat, like thinking that I
43:18
him back, only to bring him back in this horrible condition.
43:23
So he's like, he's getting better, but he's still rough.
43:27
He's 14, he's an old man. So I'm with my 14 year old cat.
43:31
Just like my kids need to say goodbye to this cat, right?
43:35
Like, he's 14. I don't know what else I would
43:38
have done, but it's like, yeah, I bring him back home and I'm
43:40
like, he's still here, He's still with us.
43:42
But I just did that to my kids.
43:45
Yeah, it felt real shitty. But obviously I'd rather I'm a
43:54
It was like, oh God. Right.
43:56
Like I think things are already in motion here, right?
44:00
I'm devastated about it. But they're already in motion,
44:04
see him, like, you're being cruel or whatever.
44:06
And you do want the vet's honest opinion, but like, Oh my God.
44:10
Yeah. Yeah.
44:11
Oh. Kody says that this entire
44:15
experience has been closure, the closure that he needed.
44:19
Yeah, they're emotional on the couch.
44:21
Meri and Kody talking about the experience, letting Drake go,
44:25
and then we get footage of them putting Drake in the ground.
44:32
Luckily it wasn't too detailed. It was from afar, so maybe the
44:39
Well, they can't really show that.
44:41
That's morbid. Yeah, it it was.
44:44
I felt like this was enough. It wasn't as much as when they
44:58
Beyond that, they're putting him in the ground.
45:01
The crew's a little ways away. And you can kind of just see
45:04
Kody, like, lowering him into the ground, putting him in the
45:08
needed. I didn't even really need that.
45:09
So thank you.
45:10
Yeah. And Kody says that it feels like
45:13
they're actually saying goodbye to Lehigh through this
45:15
experience that, you know, going
45:18
It's a thing where he hasn't been back and you know, all the
45:22
memories and whatever. But this is also like a way for
45:25
him to say goodbye to Lehigh because he never really did say
45:29
goodbye. They, well, they did.
45:33
They need to leave in the middle
45:36
Fled. Nobody knows that they needed to
45:38
flee Lehigh, but they did. And so this is Kody's
45:44
performative way of saying goodbye to their home, to the
45:47
compound, America's compound. And Meri says we need to create
45:52
the same experience here in Vegas for the younger kids as
45:55
the older ones had in Utah. And I agree, that's obviously a
46:00
stark difference there in the four homes.
46:03
And this is something that doesn't just happen now because
46:05
Meri said it Like it's not like all of a sudden now they're
46:07
going to like really learn their
46:10
family. But obviously when they talk
46:12
about the older kids and we get the flashbacks in the previous
46:15
seasons of them all being little
46:18
they're in there like trailer home.
46:19
And it looks a little dumpy. It kind of looks like footage
46:22
from when I was a kid, you know?
46:23
And there's all the kids and they're all together and the
46:26
moms are probably wanting to murder each other, but the kids
46:29
are like together and having a good time.
46:32
And the younger kids now today don't have that.
46:35
They're like in separate homes and get together for events.
46:39
It's completely different. It's almost like they're being
46:49
systems work. Yeah, very recently he was
46:50
telling us that they are siblings and it's like, well,
46:53
maybe do you have to tell yourself?
46:55
Because we know, but you're not living like that.
46:58
Like they are siblings, no doubt, duh.
47:01
But now it's almost like you're pulling them away from each
47:06
other. And even just like Janelle
47:08
saying that her kids are couch potatoes now, sitting on the
47:11
couch as opposed to running through the backyard with their
47:14
siblings. Like lifestyles are changing
47:17
here. People are pulling apart in
47:19
different ways. The kids are pulling apart
47:22
because it's not as easy to go and hang with each other.
47:25
We'll see what they can recreate.
47:27
And I suspect that for Meri in particular, this experience of
47:35
her of this. Like, oh, my gosh, we used to be
47:40
gradually change in life, you can kind of get used to things
47:45
you're like, Oh my gosh, you take a evaluation and you look
47:50
So I don't know how real of an awakening it was or if it was
47:55
just a sound bite moment, but it made sense.
47:57
I'm very curious. I feel like if I was in the same
48:02
She has one kid that's old enough that they're
48:06
self-sufficient. If I was in that position, I'd
48:14
calling up Christine, calling up Robyn.
48:16
Hey, can I come over for like an hour tonight and hang out?
48:19
Or you want some help with dinner tonight and the little
48:22
kids? I'll be over in 20 minutes.
48:24
How hard would that be? You know I would.
48:27
You have to want to. You would have to want to, you'd
48:33
But if it's not about that and it's about the kids and wanting
48:37
the kids in your life like she claims and she says, oh, that
48:40
she wants these extra rooms because these are the kids that
48:44
she's going to have and maybe they'll want to stay there and
48:49
those relationships. Doesn't seem like there's a lot
48:51
of that going. On.
48:51
No, not at all. Yeah, we don't see Meri every
48:54
day, but the way that she's talking, I'm guessing that's
48:57
not. Happening No.
48:58
She wraps up the episode by telling us it's essential that
49:05
Well, agreed, Meri, what are you going to do about it?
49:08
Are you going to do anything about it?
49:09
I don't know if it's about this time or not that she starts
49:13
speaking to strangers on the Internet.
49:14
I don't know, but she's certainly not calling up
49:18
Janelle, Christine and Robyn to be like, what can I bring over
49:23
You know, like hello. I feel like I would be bored in
49:27
my home alone. Like, especially knowing that
49:29
we're not seeing Kody very often.
49:31
Yeah, I'd be calling them up. Like hey seriously, you want to
49:35
watch ATV show? Or what if all of the wives
49:38
watch the same TV show? Like maybe they're fans of the
49:51
me to be this family and not even have that or just like
49:57
dropping by. It's just weird to me that
50:00
they're supposed to be one family and they don't have that
50:04
rapport. Well, particularly with Meri and
50:10
Christine. Yeah, with Robyn, it's like they
50:20
would be, I guess even in a way, like pushy.
50:22
You know, that whole thing where it's like how she keeps inviting
50:30
I think Robyn doesn't really care because Kody's probably
50:32
spending the most time at her house and so she's totally
50:35
satiated with everything. Christine is wishing Kody was
50:39
over more. But when he does come, he
50:41
doesn't talk to the kids and he just is on his phone and she
50:45
feels like she's probably just asking him to do things.
50:48
Yeah, and he's trying to find excuses to come as late as he
50:52
can and leave as early as he can.
50:54
And any little mistake she makes is the reason for him to pick it
51:01
Right. And then you've got Janelle, who
51:08
really care about how much she sees Kody.
51:12
Like, she probably thinks it's
51:14
you know, longing for him. So, you know, and I don't think
51:19
she's longing for time with her other sister wives either.
51:21
I think she's just pretty much
51:24
Janelle in that way. I can spend so much time by
51:26
myself. I'm just like, yeah, I guess
51:28
every once in a while I get lonely, but for the most part
51:30
I'm not lonely. I'm cool being by myself.
51:32
But she used to be the one that was all like family, this
51:36
family that we need to be closer, we need to make this
51:38
work. And I don't know when that
51:41
switch flipped, but I feel like it's for sure obvious this
51:45
season. I agree and I don't know if it
51:54
tried to make her. I think that something about
51:58
moving out of Lehigh. I mean, it really is that thing
52:01
like being together. You know, when you live in the
52:09
then you separate and see each other less.
52:12
That's why it's so weird to me that they didn't just buy 2
52:16
duplexes or something. They should have just bought a
52:19
Yeah, like a multi. Triplex.
52:22
Yeah, well, Kody was really open for that big millionaire's house
52:28
The moron. Yeah, they totally could have
52:31
bought it like a row of townhomes or something.
52:33
Rented something that made more sense and now we're coming up on
52:40
So it's not even like they were there for a year and they're
52:42
like, OK, so for example, coming up on nine months, it's like our
52:47
Like do you just renew your lease and say, well, we're
52:49
buying a house or we're building homes?
52:51
They maybe start going month to month because they're building
52:58
half year lease. I don't know because they said
53:08
So yeah, their leases are probably getting close to being
53:12
up, but a lot of places will offer a month to month, but it's
53:19
more expensive when their first lease the year was up.
53:21
If they got a year lease, then that wasn't a trigger moment to
53:25
figure out a new living situation, even if until their
53:32
aren't seeing the other kids enough.
53:33
Like we got to do something. They move every year anyway.
53:36
They've got Meri. She'll throw a piano on her back
53:42
they say things, but their actions don't align to what they
53:47
around each other, then you'd make it fucking happen.
53:49
And and none of them seem to really do it.
53:52
No. Not at all.
53:53
Their families kind of just coming apart.
53:56
It started splintering back in good old Lehigh when they had
54:03
one new soon to be wifey out on her own and then the splinter
54:10
just like broke off even further.
54:14
I don't know, It's like, God, then all of a sudden the tree
54:19
that's splintering is hit by lightning.
54:21
And it's like, now what do we do, you know?
54:24
Yeah, well, now we're burning, now we're on fire.
54:28
We're split in half, like all got into shit.
54:30
And then Robyn's over in the corner being like, I one time
54:33
had a tree that got hit by lightning, and I'm going to tell
54:38
Now, we did tell you that we don't get a lot of Robyn in this
54:43
promise. So you you can give us your
54:47
mustard seed for being honest about that.
54:50
Yes, as if we had any control over that.
54:52
But you know what? We were blessed with very
54:54
little. Robyn.
54:55
Thank you. Thank you.
54:56
Puddle Monkey Production. I think we saw Solomon more than
55:01
Kody. Oh Jesus.
55:03
Oh God. And also a little moment when
55:06
they were saying goodbyes to Drake and little truly
55:09
scrumptious came up and was like, like by the dog.
55:12
And I was like, oh truly, She's like getting that little blonde
55:15
head of hair. The little Peach fuzz.
55:17
Yeah, yeah. So cute.
55:19
I always love seeing truly when she was little.
55:23
So now moving on to our mustard seed and shit stain.
55:27
Darling, would you like to start?
55:29
Would you like to tell everyone who you feel has earned a
55:32
mustard seed in this episode? Oh.
55:34
Boy, the mustard seed here is going to go to Janelle for
55:43
starting her workout journey again, not necessarily getting
55:55
little nutso there, but I appreciate that she is, you
56:00
know, getting down to business and taking care of herself again
56:08
trainer and her have a good vibe going between each other.
56:11
And I like that he's actually addressing the psychological
56:14
like reasons behind the eating because that is the major, major
56:27
know, sticks with it. What about you?
56:30
Well, I have to admit that I'm a little sad because you took the
56:34
only mustard seed that I really could think of.
56:36
Yeah. How so?
56:38
This is where I'm going to have to.
56:40
I'm going to throw the leaderboard for Topsy Turvy
56:43
here, and I'm giving a mustard seed to Christine Brown.
56:49
I'm going to immediately regret this, but when they went to go
57:06
And she made her decisions very quickly.
57:07
And I have to say that that is admirable for the situation.
57:14
Ordinarily, I probably would not be.
57:19
So I don't know if I would call it flippant that she was like
57:22
that, but I have to give her kudos that she was just so quick
57:29
more Hemming and hawing, but I also do feel confident in making
57:36
mustard seed, no matter how much it pains me to give it to her.
57:43
right? Like, they've gotten to look at
57:45
it. They've probably seen pictures
57:49
actual, like, Swatch of stuff there in front of them, we don't
57:54
think about it and made her decisions and then got to see
57:57
him in real life and was like, yeah, I think my decision's good
58:04
cracked me up. And I agree with you on the
58:08
mustard seed here because when she said she was 15% under
58:12
budget, Kody said, oh, Meri's going to probably try to get
58:16
your 15% for hers and Christine goes she is not getting my 15%.
58:21
Yes.
58:21
And then that's when the tile came up that she was getting
58:24
tile in her dining room. All the more reason for her to
58:28
have earned this mustard seed is
58:32
Like right away she was like. No love that.
58:36
And so, Christine, you get my mustard seed on the shit stain,
58:40
darling. Oh.
58:41
Shit stain. I think you're going to take my
58:43
shit stain again. The shimmere in my drawer.
58:48
But luckily, I think there's more than one choice for this
58:50
episode, so I won't be too disturbed no matter what you
58:52
choose. I think, you know, I'm going to
58:54
take it because it's going to be
58:56
He's definitely a dark dark brown shit stain.
58:59
Yeah, the not wanting to tell the children and hide yet again
59:04
a huge thing from them. You know you hid the move until
59:09
the like the day before. You have hidden so much in your
59:15
life and probably still are. And how's it fucking working out
59:20
for you? These kids would have been
59:23
traumatized if Meri had gone along with your dumb plan of not
59:29
telling them. And then to top it off, it's
59:32
like, I don't know, there's just
59:37
and him trying to put the blame on another person and trying
59:43
to make Meri be the fall guy. Like that's where that was
59:47
going. That's where that was going.
59:49
And no one would have known because guess what?
59:52
They probably wouldn't have put that conversation on the show
59:55
either. And it would have been one of
59:57
these things between the family where it's like.
1:00:01
Meri saying no, Kody was the one
1:00:04
choice. And then Kody going to Robyn
1:00:07
saying I never said that. You know, it would have been one
1:00:10
of these drawn out bullshit things where Meri gets blamed.
1:00:15
Yeah, he's gross. He is gross.
1:00:19
He's a fucking narcissist. He only wants to be seen as the
1:00:21
good guy. So he pretends that he doesn't
1:00:24
make any decisions because or he
1:00:27
decision. Yeah, it's just, it's awful.
1:00:31
Yeah, he's a stinky, Stinky. Well, he's supposed to be the
1:00:33
leader of the family, Christopher.
1:00:36
He's. Supposed to be.
1:00:36
He's supposed to be, and as we're finding out, he is 1000%
1:00:41
not and he is manipulating all
1:00:47
And then they get together for
1:00:50
have these discussions where no one gets to be really truthful.
1:00:54
100% if it approaches that someone has a blow up.
1:00:59
Kody talks at people in a way that jockeys things and makes it
1:01:04
seem like you'd are either wrong
1:01:08
he's always clarifying things in
1:01:12
true. Manipulating the situation?
1:01:15
Yeah. He pits the wives against each
1:01:22
Yeah, it's situations like this where this could have been
1:01:26
turned real bad real quick if Meri had gone along with him not
1:01:35
Yeah, what? You know, Speaking of terrible,
1:01:37
Meri, my shit stain goes to Meri Brown.
1:01:40
Oh, Meri. You know, Meri, I've given you
1:01:47
I highly doubt that the budget for these homes is like
1:01:51
literally pinching every penny. I'm pretty sure she had a
1:01:55
perfectly adequate budget to make some very reasonable
1:01:58
decisions and to have some moderate finishings, some nice
1:02:08
Those kind of things, like literally making the decisions
1:02:15
that her first page, she was already over budget, that she
1:02:19
couldn't have the sliding door. Kody, I hate a sliding door.
1:02:24
If you guys could have like honestly that clip of her with
1:02:37
stuck in one or something when you were 10?
1:02:39
Like what's the problem here? Why do you hate them so much?
1:02:42
God just like, bring that, bring 110th of that passion into
1:02:46
saving your own family. No shit like.
1:02:48
Straight up. That's literally what the
1:02:51
Darkers we're telling them. Yes, literally.
1:02:53
Like I care more about decorating than your family.
1:02:55
Apparently, yes, she does. And she does finding, we're
1:02:58
finding that literally the time here.
1:03:00
She needs the wet bar, she needs the French doors, and she
1:03:03
doesn't know where she's going to save money on this budget.
1:03:06
And it's like, Oh my God. And she needs the five bedrooms
1:03:08
because she needs the hobby room and the pantry.
1:03:10
I need my hobby room in my wet. Bar I went by the pantry and I
1:03:18
because I hit my tie and one wants.
1:03:21
This woman, it's like, oh God, you know, Meri, I was rooting
1:03:27
for you. We were all rooting for you.
1:03:29
How dare you? Yeah.
1:03:31
It's like I've given her so many mustard seeds and now I'm going,
1:03:38
She's my shit stain this week. Sorry, Mayor.
1:03:41
Sorry, Mayor. Yeah, yeah.
1:03:43
That's where we're at here. This was that's another one that
1:03:53
this is how we have to get the family back together.
1:03:56
It's like we've had so many episodes and in some weird, dumb
1:04:06
reason, the experience, it's going to bring us back together
1:04:08
and. Then we'll do nothing about it.
1:04:11
Anyway, who gave us love this
1:04:14
week? I want to know that this.
1:04:15
Is it OK? So we got some mustard seeds,
1:04:18
which is wonderful. And our keep sweet moment this
1:04:20
week is on Apple podcast, a five
