1
00:00:01,266 --> 00:00:02,600
[narrator] Previously
on Sister Wives...
2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,300
No, we're not engaged.
3
00:00:04,300 --> 00:00:06,400
And here we are,
looking at wedding venues.
4
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,133
Great place to have a wedding.
5
00:00:09,266 --> 00:00:10,533
I'd marry you here.
6
00:00:11,367 --> 00:00:14,000
[Ysabel] It is moving
extremely fast.
7
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,400
Faster than I think.
I would like it.
8
00:00:18,767 --> 00:00:21,166
[Meri] My plan is to renovate
the carriage house
9
00:00:21,166 --> 00:00:23,266
and just kind of run
my business out of there.
10
00:00:23,266 --> 00:00:25,667
You're not gonna see
any of the... anything
before the final reveal.
11
00:00:25,667 --> 00:00:27,667
-You understand that, right?
-Um...
12
00:00:27,667 --> 00:00:31,467
I've always been
very well aware that
I'm a control freak,
13
00:00:31,467 --> 00:00:33,967
and I know that
that's something
that need to...
14
00:00:33,967 --> 00:00:35,700
let go of a little bit.
15
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,567
[Christine] The property
needs to be paid off.
16
00:00:38,567 --> 00:00:41,367
So how serious
is anybody really about
living on that property?
17
00:00:41,367 --> 00:00:42,900
Is anyone really
gonna live there?
18
00:00:42,900 --> 00:00:44,500
He's not talking
to me about it.
19
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:46,500
So, I think I'm gonna
have to lawyer up.
20
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,367
[Kody] I am embarrassed
that my divorces
21
00:00:50,367 --> 00:00:53,166
have created
contemptuous enemies.
22
00:00:53,166 --> 00:00:54,467
-Oh!
-[indistinct chatter]
23
00:00:54,467 --> 00:00:55,967
-Aw!
-No!
24
00:00:55,967 --> 00:00:56,934
[Kody] For me now,
25
00:00:56,934 --> 00:01:01,200
My prayer was just, like,
save me and Robyn.
26
00:01:05,367 --> 00:01:08,300
[chuckles softly]
I feel like the idiot
that got left behind.
27
00:01:43,867 --> 00:01:45,300
[gasps] Hi!
28
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:46,500
Give me a hug.
29
00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:48,700
David's gonna
come over for dinner.
30
00:01:48,700 --> 00:01:50,166
All my kids are coming over.
31
00:01:50,166 --> 00:01:52,367
Some of my kids
are great with David.
32
00:01:52,367 --> 00:01:54,700
Some of my kids
are like, "Mmm..."
33
00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:56,500
on the fence a bit.
34
00:01:57,367 --> 00:01:59,166
-Sounds delicious.
-[Christine] You down? Cool.
35
00:01:59,166 --> 00:02:01,066
And then David will just
be here any minute,
36
00:02:01,066 --> 00:02:02,767
and please be nice this time.
[chuckling]
37
00:02:02,767 --> 00:02:04,667
-"This time"?
-"Be nice."
38
00:02:04,667 --> 00:02:06,600
-[Christine laughing]
-[Ysabel] We're always
sweet to him.
39
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,266
Paedon and Gwendlyn
have not met David yet.
40
00:02:09,266 --> 00:02:12,000
Uh, but Gwendlyn
is not here tonight,
Paedon is,
41
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,800
so he's gonna meet him
for the first time.
42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,667
He's never had
this meal before,
so I that'll be fun.
43
00:02:16,667 --> 00:02:18,100
-Yeah?
-How's the Brown family meal?
44
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:20,500
After Christmas,
the kids talked about
45
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:23,100
how they missed
all of our traditions.
46
00:02:23,100 --> 00:02:25,967
So, I felt like
it was important
to bring some of them back.
47
00:02:25,967 --> 00:02:27,500
Some of the ones
that the other moms did.
48
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:29,867
So there's something
that Meri used to do.
49
00:02:29,867 --> 00:02:32,400
But Janelle actually
called them haystacks.
50
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,600
Hawaiian haystacks?
51
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,367
It's just chow mein noodles.
52
00:02:35,367 --> 00:02:38,266
And then
it's chicken and cheese
and soup, almonds,
53
00:02:38,266 --> 00:02:41,266
and some people
put pineapple on it,
which is disgusting.
54
00:02:41,266 --> 00:02:43,266
-I think the rice
should be done, too.
-[doorbell rings]
55
00:02:43,266 --> 00:02:44,867
-Hey!
--[Aspyn] Who's here?
56
00:02:44,867 --> 00:02:46,900
-[Mykelti] Hoo-hoo!
-Oh, my gosh,
behave yourselves!
57
00:02:46,900 --> 00:02:48,367
It's a man!
58
00:02:48,367 --> 00:02:49,800
[Christine] Oh, my gosh.
59
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,867
[Paedon] I'm really excited
to meet David.
60
00:02:51,867 --> 00:02:54,367
I suspect that immediately,
as soon as he walks in,
61
00:02:54,367 --> 00:02:57,567
all four of us are gonna
immediately insult him
in some way
62
00:02:57,567 --> 00:03:01,500
to just establish,
"That's right.
This is who we are."
63
00:03:01,500 --> 00:03:02,667
[Christine] You know,
I'm a little nervous.
64
00:03:02,667 --> 00:03:04,600
I'm a little bit nervous
that they're not gonna behave.
65
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,000
[sighs] Look,
this is important
for them to get along.
66
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,300
I'm just saying.
67
00:03:09,266 --> 00:03:10,667
They're already crazy.
68
00:03:10,667 --> 00:03:12,166
-Hello.
-[Christine] Hi, baby.
69
00:03:12,166 --> 00:03:13,500
-How are you?
-Not too bad.
70
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:15,333
Good. Hi.
71
00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:18,867
Our relationship's
moving really fast.
72
00:03:18,867 --> 00:03:20,500
We've been together
for a couple of months.
73
00:03:20,500 --> 00:03:23,367
Mom's boyfriend is here!
74
00:03:23,367 --> 00:03:24,467
[Tony] Ooh!
75
00:03:24,467 --> 00:03:26,300
[Christine] This is it.
I'm going to marry David.
76
00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:27,233
I just am.
77
00:03:27,467 --> 00:03:29,000
Hello, Richard.
78
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,634
Richard? [chuckles]
79
00:03:31,266 --> 00:03:32,467
Who's Richard?
80
00:03:32,467 --> 00:03:34,467
His name is David.
Nobody's Richard.
81
00:03:34,467 --> 00:03:35,333
What show is that from?
82
00:03:35,333 --> 00:03:37,433
I'm... I...
I just called you Richard.
83
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,467
God, he's old.
84
00:03:39,467 --> 00:03:41,100
He's... Is he too old for Mom?
85
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:42,700
I think he's too old for Mom.
86
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,400
David, did you like any
of the venues you saw in Moab?
87
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,000
Yes. I really loved
the Red Cliff Lodge.
88
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,667
It was a really cool place.
89
00:03:50,667 --> 00:03:53,467
Is it big enough
for the 700 guests
she'll have?
90
00:03:53,467 --> 00:03:55,100
-Seven hundred...
-[David] You're talking 700.
91
00:03:55,100 --> 00:03:56,467
-[Mykelti] ...guests?
-I don't think there's 700.
92
00:03:56,467 --> 00:03:58,467
-[chuckles]
-[Tony] No,
I could believe it.
93
00:03:58,467 --> 00:04:00,266
Ours was 400-plus.
94
00:04:00,266 --> 00:04:02,367
-Oh, we had polygamy.
That's fair.
-They know lots of people.
95
00:04:02,367 --> 00:04:03,467
[chuckles]
96
00:04:03,467 --> 00:04:06,266
-Seven hundred--
-I have that too, so...
97
00:04:06,266 --> 00:04:08,500
Yeah, that's right.
There's polygamy on your side.
98
00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:11,767
David actually has two sisters
who lived polygamy.
99
00:04:11,767 --> 00:04:15,000
He never did or wanted to
or anything like that.
100
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,767
And his sisters
don't live it anymore.
101
00:04:16,767 --> 00:04:19,166
They haven't for,
like, 30 years.
102
00:04:19,166 --> 00:04:23,166
My oldest sister, she got
divorced from her husband,
103
00:04:23,166 --> 00:04:25,400
and my other sister,
104
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,667
kind of got divorced,
but wasn't really divorced.
105
00:04:27,667 --> 00:04:30,300
And then her husband
passed away.
106
00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:33,767
Um, so that's how
she got out of polygamy.
107
00:04:33,767 --> 00:04:34,767
[Mykelti] You have a date?
108
00:04:34,767 --> 00:04:35,667
[Aspyn] Yeah.
What's the date?
109
00:04:35,667 --> 00:04:38,000
The 22nd of October.
110
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,667
[Tony and Mykelti] October?
111
00:04:39,667 --> 00:04:42,367
That's the day before, um,
my husband's birthday.
112
00:04:42,367 --> 00:04:45,367
-Well, we're not celebrating
his birthday, okay?
-No, don't do it.
113
00:04:45,367 --> 00:04:47,266
-Don't do it.
-Hello. [chuckles]
114
00:04:47,266 --> 00:04:50,400
So, we're looking
at October in Moab.
115
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,000
To get October in Moab,
116
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
you have to get
your wedding venue right away
117
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,166
because it fills up.
118
00:04:56,166 --> 00:04:58,567
'Cause October
is crazy in Moab.
119
00:04:58,567 --> 00:05:02,467
So, yes.
We are getting married.
120
00:05:02,467 --> 00:05:04,367
[chuckling] We have
a wedding date.
121
00:05:04,367 --> 00:05:06,000
But we're not engaged yet.
122
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,066
I am surprised by how fast
things are going.
123
00:05:09,066 --> 00:05:11,567
My mom did just
get out of a...
124
00:05:11,567 --> 00:05:14,367
what, 25-year relationship,
125
00:05:14,367 --> 00:05:17,367
and then starts talking
about getting married.
126
00:05:17,367 --> 00:05:20,567
It does seem really,
really, really fast.
127
00:05:20,567 --> 00:05:22,600
Does David need to ask
your dad for blessing?
128
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,367
-'Cause that's how
it works, right?
-[Christine] David...
129
00:05:24,367 --> 00:05:26,166
-David did ask my dad.
-[David] I did.
130
00:05:26,166 --> 00:05:27,700
-[Aspyn] What? Already?
-[Tony] Whoa, wait a second.
Already?
131
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:31,100
David asked my dad
if he could marry me.
132
00:05:31,100 --> 00:05:33,000
It meant the world to me.
133
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
So, I... he got along
really well with my dad.
134
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,400
Like, it was
a great conversation.
135
00:05:36,767 --> 00:05:37,834
And then David's like,
136
00:05:37,834 --> 00:05:40,800
"So, you know, I'd like
to ask for your blessing,"
137
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,700
and my dad just reaches over
and he goes, "Yes."
138
00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:45,266
-[all laughing]
-[Tony chuckling] Whoa...
139
00:05:45,266 --> 00:05:46,333
So fast?
140
00:05:46,333 --> 00:05:47,867
My dad's like...
[mimicking male voice]
"Yeah, yeah,
141
00:05:47,867 --> 00:05:49,100
of course,
you can marry Chris.
142
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:51,367
That's great. You know,
you can marry Chris."
143
00:05:51,367 --> 00:05:53,166
And just like that.
I mean, just like that.
144
00:05:53,166 --> 00:05:55,467
And then my dad made him
a plate of food.
145
00:05:55,467 --> 00:05:56,867
-And brought him
a plate of food.
-[Aspyn] Wow.
146
00:05:56,867 --> 00:06:00,166
-[Tony] Oh, man.
-Grandpa, who takes 10 minutes
to rise from a chair...
147
00:06:00,166 --> 00:06:02,467
-[chuckling] I know.
-...got up to make him
a plate of food?
148
00:06:02,467 --> 00:06:03,133
-[David] Yeah.
-I know.
149
00:06:03,133 --> 00:06:05,100
Yeah. Only me, nobody else.
150
00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:08,900
Yeah, it was... It was cool,
but it was a really, really
good experience for sure.
151
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:10,333
It's getting serious.
152
00:06:10,867 --> 00:06:12,367
[Christine] It's
getting serious.
153
00:06:12,367 --> 00:06:14,000
-Getting serious.
-[Mykelti] Maybe
it's been serous
154
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,567
since you guys
went on your first date
155
00:06:15,567 --> 00:06:17,800
and you got mad
that he wouldn't kiss you
on the date.
156
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,567
-That was the second date.
-[David] Second date.
157
00:06:19,567 --> 00:06:20,800
Yeah. Gosh, Mykelti.
158
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,166
Look at... second date
we went to see
The Little Mermaid.
159
00:06:24,166 --> 00:06:26,100
There is a song,
"Kiss the Girl."
160
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:29,767
It's all about...
all these little animals
161
00:06:29,767 --> 00:06:31,266
swimming and singing,
162
00:06:31,266 --> 00:06:33,867
trying to convince him
to kiss her.
163
00:06:33,867 --> 00:06:36,166
It's the perfect opportunity
to kiss a girl, okay?
164
00:06:36,166 --> 00:06:37,300
It just is.
165
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:38,567
And he didn't.
166
00:06:38,567 --> 00:06:40,000
I'm not that type of guy.
167
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,767
I'm gonna be a gentleman,
and I'm gonna wait.
168
00:06:42,767 --> 00:06:44,800
And she just has to wait, too,
169
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,667
whether she likes it or not.
170
00:06:46,667 --> 00:06:47,867
I am going to put it all
out there.
171
00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:49,567
I was married to this...
to a guy
172
00:06:49,567 --> 00:06:52,300
for, like, 20-odd years
173
00:06:52,300 --> 00:06:53,767
with so much uncertainty.
174
00:06:53,767 --> 00:06:57,100
And I am not entering
a relationship
with uncertainty.
175
00:06:57,100 --> 00:06:58,767
The third date,
he made up for it.
And it's fine, though.
176
00:06:58,767 --> 00:07:00,266
Wait, you kissed
on the second date?
177
00:07:00,266 --> 00:07:02,000
Third date. We kissed
on the third date.
178
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,300
Oh, you kissed on... Wait,
179
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:05,000
it's three dates,
and then sex.
180
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,000
That's the rule.
181
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
-Tony, thanks for that.
-[Tony] I'm just saying.
182
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,800
-Really appreciate that.
-[Tony] That's the rules.
183
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,367
I think that my siblings
and I, we're all very much
humorous with each other.
184
00:07:13,367 --> 00:07:17,600
We're all quick witted.
For somebody to, like,
click with us really well,
185
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,800
they have to give and take
with the sarcasm,
186
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,567
with the barbs,
back and forth,
187
00:07:22,567 --> 00:07:25,667
and David picked that up,
day one.
188
00:07:25,667 --> 00:07:27,700
Do you guys fart
in front of each other yet?
189
00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:29,066
Uh...
190
00:07:29,066 --> 00:07:30,567
-I don't think so.
-No, not yet.
191
00:07:30,567 --> 00:07:32,266
But I could-- that
easily could be done.
192
00:07:32,266 --> 00:07:34,000
-You guys haven't farted
in front of each other yet?
-Okay. Do you...
193
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,166
Do you talk to him
while he's pooping
on the toilet?
194
00:07:36,166 --> 00:07:37,600
-[Christine] God, no.
-Why not?
195
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,367
-[Christine] Why would I
do that?
-I don't do that.
196
00:07:39,367 --> 00:07:40,567
-I think it's weird.
-[Christine] No.
197
00:07:40,567 --> 00:07:42,066
I wouldn't do that
with my girlfriends
198
00:07:42,066 --> 00:07:43,266
-or my kids or anybody.
-Really?
199
00:07:43,266 --> 00:07:44,867
Now, have my texted?
Oh, yeah.
200
00:07:44,867 --> 00:07:46,200
[chuckling]
201
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,000
It was very clear to me
that Christine's whole goal
in leaving me
202
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,100
was to find her soulmate.
203
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:56,200
So, I expect that once
she was out of here
and in Utah,
204
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,700
she would be dating.
205
00:07:59,667 --> 00:08:03,500
And I have not heard
anything about it.
206
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:05,800
I'm actually
not interested in it.
207
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,467
I'm just. like,
"wish you well."
208
00:08:08,467 --> 00:08:10,567
-[Mykelti] Now,
can we start eating?
-Go, make your food.
209
00:08:10,567 --> 00:08:12,567
-That's beautiful, Mom.
-[Aspyn] So you get it.
210
00:08:12,567 --> 00:08:14,100
Do you layer this stuff?
211
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:15,166
It has to be done just right
212
00:08:15,166 --> 00:08:18,166
because the flavors have to
not fight each other.
213
00:08:18,166 --> 00:08:20,500
-They have to blend
with each other.
-Exactly.
214
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:22,200
-Uh-huh.
-[Christine] I love you
so much, babe.
215
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,500
Let's blend these flavors.
216
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,133
[Aspyn] No!
217
00:08:25,467 --> 00:08:26,800
[all laughing]
218
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,700
-"Let's blend these flavors"?
-[chuckling]
219
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:31,000
Uh, I'm not really
used to seeing my mom,
220
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,767
uh, be affectionate
with somebody,
221
00:08:33,767 --> 00:08:37,467
and I haven't seen it
in a while I feel like, so...
222
00:08:37,467 --> 00:08:39,400
I remember Mom
dancing with Dad
223
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,667
in the kitchen, in Vegas.
224
00:08:41,667 --> 00:08:44,467
But, um, it's nobody new.
225
00:08:44,467 --> 00:08:46,233
And so that's what's
different to me.
226
00:08:50,166 --> 00:08:52,800
And so when she does it,
I'm extremely
caught off guard.
227
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,467
I'm just... you know what?
I'm just testing them.
228
00:08:55,467 --> 00:08:56,867
They have to get used to it.
229
00:08:56,867 --> 00:08:58,367
It's just what's
going to happen.
230
00:08:58,367 --> 00:09:00,300
To be comfortable
in front of my kids.
231
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:01,600
They kiss in front of me.
232
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,367
I'm going to kiss
in front of them.
233
00:09:03,367 --> 00:09:04,800
You guys are all good.
234
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,000
Wait, you guys are all good
with us getting married then,
apparently.
235
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,400
Good? Good?
236
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,467
[indistinct crosstalk]
237
00:09:10,467 --> 00:09:12,567
-Hold on.
-Tony, I knew...
I knew this was coming.
238
00:09:12,567 --> 00:09:15,100
I think I'm gonna need to get
to know him better.
239
00:09:15,100 --> 00:09:16,767
I'm just not ready.
240
00:09:16,767 --> 00:09:18,867
[Mykelti] We have six months
after Gwendlyn's wedding,
241
00:09:18,867 --> 00:09:21,200
-it's not--
-[Tony] It's just too close.
242
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,900
Mykelti and Tony
tease me all the time
243
00:09:23,900 --> 00:09:28,567
because I was, like...
put the brakes hard
on their relationship.
244
00:09:28,567 --> 00:09:30,400
-[Kody] Mr. Tony...
-[Christine] Mr. Tony.
245
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,867
...has, um, asked
for Mykelti's hand
in marriage.
246
00:09:35,867 --> 00:09:38,500
I would be a little
more comfortable with...
247
00:09:39,300 --> 00:09:41,200
December.
248
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,900
It will be a difficult
experience for me
249
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:46,700
to have you guys
celebrated it...
250
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:50,667
only two months
after doing Madison's wedding.
251
00:09:50,667 --> 00:09:52,600
Okay, that's gonna clobber me.
252
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,200
I remember what it was like
being on the other side,
253
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,266
and not understanding, at all,
254
00:09:57,266 --> 00:09:58,467
why you guys had to rush.
255
00:09:58,467 --> 00:09:59,767
Like, "why do you
have to rush?
256
00:09:59,767 --> 00:10:01,467
What's the big deal?"
And now I'm like,
257
00:10:01,467 --> 00:10:03,467
"We need to rush.
This is ridiculous."
You know, whatever.
258
00:10:03,467 --> 00:10:05,066
Yes, I do
completely support it.
259
00:10:05,066 --> 00:10:07,500
But like, if I didn't,
would that matter?
260
00:10:07,500 --> 00:10:10,166
-No.
-Yeah, I didn't think so.
261
00:10:10,166 --> 00:10:11,900
Paedon's having a hard time.
262
00:10:11,900 --> 00:10:13,500
Then Ysabel's having
a hard time
263
00:10:13,500 --> 00:10:14,767
with how fast we're moving.
264
00:10:14,767 --> 00:10:15,734
She likes David,
265
00:10:15,734 --> 00:10:18,600
but she just thinks
it's moving really fast.
266
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,100
When are you meeting
Janelle and her boys?
267
00:10:21,100 --> 00:10:22,266
-Next weekend.
-And some of them--
268
00:10:22,266 --> 00:10:24,166
-[Aspyn] Really?
-Yeah, next weekend. Yeah.
269
00:10:24,166 --> 00:10:26,600
-All of them or--
-Whoever can make it.
270
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,867
Janelle fully... Janelle fully
supports this relationship.
271
00:10:28,867 --> 00:10:31,266
I sent her a picture
of David and us together,
272
00:10:31,266 --> 00:10:32,233
and I talked
with her about it,
273
00:10:32,233 --> 00:10:34,700
and she's gonna meet David
next weekend, too.
274
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:35,800
I've never met him...
275
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,400
[chuckles] but I hear
really good things about him.
276
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,800
He was a guy whose wife died,
277
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,367
and he raised eight kids
on his own.
278
00:10:42,367 --> 00:10:44,767
So, to me,
that's like this huge,
279
00:10:44,767 --> 00:10:48,700
shining thing
about who he is, right? So...
280
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:51,367
And he has a relationship
with all his kids still.
281
00:10:51,367 --> 00:10:53,867
Anything else
we should know about you?
282
00:10:53,867 --> 00:10:55,767
[Mykelti] How many tattoos
do you have?
283
00:10:55,767 --> 00:10:58,967
Oh, yeah, tattoos.
I was looking for someone
bald with tattoos
284
00:10:58,967 --> 00:11:00,700
and driving a motorcycle.
285
00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:03,433
-So we're gonna get tattoos.
Yes, it's true.
-Whoa.
286
00:11:04,100 --> 00:11:06,000
You have the perfect
leather pants...
287
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,867
-for riding.
-I know, I know.
I have my leather pants.
288
00:11:08,867 --> 00:11:12,567
How cliche and cheesy is that?
289
00:11:12,567 --> 00:11:16,000
Matching tattoos?
That's adorable.
290
00:11:17,867 --> 00:11:20,900
It's... might as well get one,
and I'm happy
that she's getting one
291
00:11:20,900 --> 00:11:22,166
with someone she cares about,
292
00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:23,634
but also that's really weird.
293
00:11:24,567 --> 00:11:26,567
Oh, my gosh,
she's gonna push me over.
294
00:11:26,567 --> 00:11:28,266
Yeah, I am.
295
00:11:28,266 --> 00:11:30,467
[Kody] I've been sitting here
thinking about Christine,
296
00:11:30,467 --> 00:11:32,867
not in the regret place
anymore.
297
00:11:32,867 --> 00:11:34,367
I'm sitting back,
looking back,
298
00:11:34,367 --> 00:11:35,800
"Wow, we had some fun times."
299
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,367
There were some special times.
300
00:11:37,367 --> 00:11:39,900
I would have loved to have
had a breakup where we could
have stayed friends,
301
00:11:39,900 --> 00:11:42,700
but I think the reason
we couldn't was because
I just felt like
302
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,767
every step of it
was a betrayal.
303
00:11:44,767 --> 00:11:47,567
And because of that,
I don't know if I'll ever...
304
00:11:47,567 --> 00:11:49,600
get to be
in a good place with her.
305
00:11:50,967 --> 00:11:52,800
Listen. You're making it
very difficult.
306
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,100
You're fired.
307
00:11:54,100 --> 00:11:55,333
-[David] "You're fired"?
-Hey, you're fired.
308
00:11:55,333 --> 00:11:59,266
-[Paedon] You cannot
fire your daughter.
-[David chuckling]
309
00:11:59,266 --> 00:12:00,667
[Paedon] David seems
like a really good guy.
310
00:12:00,667 --> 00:12:02,400
I see a future being there,
311
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,467
but also anything
could happen.
312
00:12:04,467 --> 00:12:08,100
Yeah, it does still feel like
it's moving fast,
a little bit too fast.
313
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:10,166
It makes me happy
to see my mom happy.
314
00:12:10,166 --> 00:12:11,100
Um...
315
00:12:11,100 --> 00:12:13,367
But do I think it's fast? Yes.
316
00:12:13,367 --> 00:12:15,000
I still think it's fast.
317
00:12:19,900 --> 00:12:22,266
It's my 55th birthday.
318
00:12:22,266 --> 00:12:25,567
I've lost a sense of direction
for my life.
319
00:12:25,567 --> 00:12:27,467
[Robyn] Kody's been
a very angry,
320
00:12:27,467 --> 00:12:29,867
lost person.
321
00:12:29,867 --> 00:12:32,934
I feel like he's struggling
right now...
322
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,333
but it's not who he is.
323
00:12:47,066 --> 00:12:49,300
It's my 55th birthday...
324
00:12:50,266 --> 00:12:51,300
today.
325
00:12:51,300 --> 00:12:53,133
And, um... I've had a...
326
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:54,900
interesting life.
327
00:12:54,900 --> 00:12:57,266
I remember five years ago,
on my birthday, thinking,
328
00:12:57,266 --> 00:13:00,066
"Okay, I'm halfway through.
329
00:13:00,066 --> 00:13:02,266
Um, what do I wanna do
for the rest of my life?
330
00:13:02,266 --> 00:13:04,433
What do I wanna be
for the rest of my life?"
331
00:13:05,266 --> 00:13:07,867
Last night,
I was up late with Robyn.
332
00:13:07,867 --> 00:13:11,166
We were having a discussion
about our values.
333
00:13:11,166 --> 00:13:13,700
And the fact that
I've struggled with mine...
334
00:13:14,266 --> 00:13:16,200
through the divorce process,
335
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,900
everything that's happened...
336
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:22,100
I've lost a sense of direction
for my life.
337
00:13:22,100 --> 00:13:24,000
There's a struggle
that I have had
338
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,734
because I had this big picture
that got... shattered.
339
00:13:28,166 --> 00:13:30,467
But I have a safe,
340
00:13:30,467 --> 00:13:32,100
kind and sweet place
341
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:34,066
with my wife, Robyn.
342
00:13:34,066 --> 00:13:35,166
And then I have tons of guilt
343
00:13:35,166 --> 00:13:36,967
because I'm not more involved
344
00:13:36,967 --> 00:13:39,233
with everybody else
that's out there.
345
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:43,000
Uh, Kody's been
a very angry...
346
00:13:43,266 --> 00:13:45,100
upset, um...
347
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,166
uh... [sighs]
348
00:13:48,166 --> 00:13:50,700
a very lost person
349
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:52,066
in the last few years.
350
00:13:52,066 --> 00:13:55,200
And... I have to recognize it
for what it is.
351
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,266
It's just him
in a painful place,
352
00:13:57,266 --> 00:13:59,900
and him in place of fear,
353
00:13:59,900 --> 00:14:01,700
that I will leave him, too.
354
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:04,400
What was my purpose
ten, fifteen,
355
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,300
twenty years ago,
thirty years ago?
356
00:14:07,667 --> 00:14:09,300
It was always...
357
00:14:09,300 --> 00:14:11,433
my family, my children.
358
00:14:13,266 --> 00:14:15,767
When I was younger,
I was so naive
359
00:14:15,767 --> 00:14:17,467
coming into plural marriage,
360
00:14:17,467 --> 00:14:18,967
I guess, idealistic,
361
00:14:18,967 --> 00:14:20,367
that I think I saw myself,
362
00:14:20,367 --> 00:14:23,100
sort of,
surrounded by children
363
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:25,000
and surrounded by wives.
364
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,533
I literally imagined...
365
00:14:27,467 --> 00:14:28,767
that my five, six oldest
366
00:14:28,767 --> 00:14:30,266
would be living
across the street,
367
00:14:30,266 --> 00:14:32,667
in homes
with their spouses.
368
00:14:32,667 --> 00:14:34,600
I mean, this is literally
what I imagined.
369
00:14:38,066 --> 00:14:39,133
Hmm.
370
00:14:40,467 --> 00:14:43,667
That fantasy
all came out of...
371
00:14:43,667 --> 00:14:46,300
the affection I felt
for my children.
372
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:48,266
To me, it wasn't
a plural-family thing,
373
00:14:48,266 --> 00:14:51,400
it was just
enjoying-my-family thing.
374
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,166
I'm hoping that
they will not reject this,
375
00:14:54,166 --> 00:14:56,867
as some of them
won't even talk to me.
376
00:14:56,867 --> 00:14:59,600
But my new goal will be
back to being Dad.
377
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,000
Incidentally, I'm meeting
with Janelle tomorrow...
378
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,567
for lunch to talk about
379
00:15:05,567 --> 00:15:07,033
business and property.
380
00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:09,500
I hope that's good.
381
00:15:12,467 --> 00:15:14,767
[Robyn] Can you remember
who you are?
382
00:15:14,767 --> 00:15:16,800
Remember the guy that I met?
383
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,734
The guy who... I saw
384
00:15:20,567 --> 00:15:22,600
loving his kids.
385
00:15:24,567 --> 00:15:26,266
And, uh, I feel like...
386
00:15:26,266 --> 00:15:28,600
he's struggling
with that right now...
387
00:15:29,166 --> 00:15:30,834
because he's so hurt.
388
00:15:31,667 --> 00:15:33,634
But it's not who he is.
389
00:15:37,900 --> 00:15:39,300
[Kody] So that will be
my new thing.
390
00:15:39,300 --> 00:15:42,266
This... today
is my 55th birthday,
391
00:15:42,266 --> 00:15:43,600
and I have...
392
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:45,367
with God,
393
00:15:45,367 --> 00:15:47,066
in covenant form,
394
00:15:47,066 --> 00:15:48,700
reasserted myself...
395
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,166
to, from here on out,
396
00:15:51,166 --> 00:15:53,567
be the loving father
and the dad that...
397
00:15:53,567 --> 00:15:56,133
that has always given me
purpose in my life.
398
00:15:58,300 --> 00:16:01,266
Onward and upward
with the goals in life,
399
00:16:01,266 --> 00:16:03,300
and making my family
whole again.
400
00:16:03,300 --> 00:16:04,800
That's my desire.
401
00:16:16,867 --> 00:16:18,700
So, David told me
a couple of...
402
00:16:18,700 --> 00:16:20,266
well, weeks ago,
honestly, he's like,
403
00:16:20,266 --> 00:16:22,266
"I think it's time for us
to go jewelry shopping,"
404
00:16:22,266 --> 00:16:23,567
and I'm like...
405
00:16:23,567 --> 00:16:25,166
"Okay, let's go
jewellery shopping!"
406
00:16:25,166 --> 00:16:27,000
And then he goes,
"Well, ring shopping."
407
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,200
And I'm like, "Oh, my gosh."
408
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:30,367
So, here we are.
409
00:16:30,367 --> 00:16:32,066
And today,
we're going ring shopping.
410
00:16:32,066 --> 00:16:33,166
So, we're not engaged.
411
00:16:33,166 --> 00:16:34,400
We're just looking at rings.
412
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,200
-Hi.
-Hi. I'm Lisa.
413
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,367
-I'm David.
-Thank you so much.
414
00:16:37,367 --> 00:16:38,100
[both] Nice to meet you.
415
00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:39,867
-Congratulations.
-Thank you.
416
00:16:39,867 --> 00:16:41,367
But I've never gone
ring shopping.
417
00:16:41,367 --> 00:16:42,867
Kody just got the ring,
418
00:16:42,867 --> 00:16:44,000
and he brought it home.
419
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,600
I'm not one for surprises.
420
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,066
What I like is
time spent doing things.
421
00:16:48,066 --> 00:16:49,367
So, I love the idea,
422
00:16:49,367 --> 00:16:51,266
love the idea
of ring shopping.
423
00:16:51,266 --> 00:16:53,066
I talked to you on the phone,
and I knew
424
00:16:53,066 --> 00:16:54,467
that you like
the marquise-cut diamond,
425
00:16:54,467 --> 00:16:56,667
so I pulled
a few marquise cuts...
426
00:16:56,667 --> 00:16:58,266
different sizes.
427
00:16:58,266 --> 00:17:01,367
I have no idea what's popular,
trendy, modern.
428
00:17:01,367 --> 00:17:02,266
All I know is what I like.
429
00:17:02,266 --> 00:17:04,567
And it's the diamond
shape, specifically,
430
00:17:04,567 --> 00:17:07,767
and then it's just some, uh,
different colors of metals.
431
00:17:07,767 --> 00:17:10,367
That's what I'm tending
to gravitate more towards.
432
00:17:10,367 --> 00:17:12,400
[Lisa] Yes, so we could
make it your own design,
433
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,000
exactly how you want.
434
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,600
We do it on a computerized
CAD system now.
435
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,367
So, my first ring with Kody,
436
00:17:18,367 --> 00:17:20,467
like, the engagement ring,
was a Claddagh ring,
437
00:17:20,467 --> 00:17:21,767
the Irish wedding ring.
438
00:17:21,767 --> 00:17:24,000
It symbolizes love,
loyalty, friendship.
439
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,567
And that was
my engagement ring.
440
00:17:25,567 --> 00:17:27,266
They can
give you options there.
441
00:17:27,266 --> 00:17:29,266
Well, if you design it, just
do two different options...
442
00:17:29,266 --> 00:17:30,867
-Oh.
-...so that you can
set the look and see.
443
00:17:30,867 --> 00:17:32,000
-Yeah.
-[Lisa] Yeah, exactly.
444
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,500
I think if I get remarried,
445
00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:35,700
I seriously would, probably,
just do a gold band.
446
00:17:35,700 --> 00:17:37,567
I just always was more simple.
447
00:17:37,567 --> 00:17:39,600
I'll have to give him
some guidelines
448
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:40,900
of what I do and I don't like.
449
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:42,734
I don't like a marquise.
450
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:45,200
I do like square.
451
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,400
I... This is my favorite.
I like the twisty thing...
452
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,066
-like, the different metals
and stuff.
-[David] Yeah.
453
00:17:50,066 --> 00:17:51,400
[Christine] I really
like that.
454
00:17:52,266 --> 00:17:54,367
Yeah, but I have no idea
if Christine's dating,
455
00:17:54,367 --> 00:17:56,066
I imagine that she would be,
456
00:17:56,066 --> 00:17:58,867
specifically because
that was her goal in leaving.
457
00:17:58,867 --> 00:18:03,266
It was to go find a soulmate.
458
00:18:03,266 --> 00:18:05,567
To be fair,
I was asked once before,
459
00:18:05,567 --> 00:18:07,900
"When do you think
it's okay for Christine
to start dating?"
460
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:10,300
And I'm like,
"the day she left." [chuckles]
461
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:12,367
-Okay. I'm just so excited.
-[both chuckle softly]
462
00:18:12,367 --> 00:18:13,867
[both] Mmm.
463
00:18:13,867 --> 00:18:15,400
-So, am I.
-Yeah, baby.
464
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,567
Yep. It's gonna be a good day.
Great day. Awesome day.
465
00:18:18,567 --> 00:18:20,700
In plural marriage,
with the weddings...
466
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,000
you don't feel celebrated.
467
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,266
I just got married.
And that was it.
468
00:18:26,266 --> 00:18:28,467
And I didn't invite
a lot of people.
469
00:18:28,467 --> 00:18:31,500
It's just what was accepted
and what was done.
470
00:18:31,500 --> 00:18:33,767
When you're a plural wife,
the focus isn't on you,
471
00:18:33,767 --> 00:18:35,000
and it's not supposed
to be on you.
472
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,166
It's supposed to be
on the family.
473
00:18:36,166 --> 00:18:38,867
But then when I left Kody,
474
00:18:38,867 --> 00:18:40,600
I really thought
about the next relationship
475
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,700
and what it would look like.
476
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:42,700
And I wanted all of it.
477
00:18:42,700 --> 00:18:44,000
The bridal shower,
478
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,400
or the wedding shower and...
479
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,100
I just want to do it all.
480
00:18:47,100 --> 00:18:48,600
Everybody should get
what they want.
481
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,400
For me, it's...
482
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,600
If I ever get married again,
483
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,200
it's gonna be on the top
of a mountain somewhere,
484
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,000
and it's gonna be simple.
And I just want a gold ring,
485
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,100
and maybe we'll get married
in our jeans.
486
00:18:57,100 --> 00:19:00,600
I'm sure there will come
a time where I will
487
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,266
you know, think about that
a little bit more.
488
00:19:03,266 --> 00:19:04,667
But right now, it's just...
489
00:19:04,667 --> 00:19:07,300
It's kind of strange
to think about those things.
490
00:19:07,867 --> 00:19:09,000
Okay, rings for him, too.
491
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,033
We didn't talk about that.
492
00:19:10,033 --> 00:19:13,066
Okay. I... I have
all kinds of bands over here.
493
00:19:13,066 --> 00:19:14,500
Um, there's different metals.
494
00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:17,100
Tungsten, titanium,
cobalt chrome.
495
00:19:17,100 --> 00:19:19,467
That one...
Let's see in the middle.
496
00:19:19,467 --> 00:19:20,700
-[Lisa] The black?
-[David] But I like...
497
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:22,000
Yeah, the black one there.
498
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:22,967
That's nice. I like it.
499
00:19:22,967 --> 00:19:24,567
-I like the--
-I like that one right there.
500
00:19:24,567 --> 00:19:25,767
Yeah, that's gorgeous.
501
00:19:25,767 --> 00:19:27,667
I liked the black ring
'cause it was cool.
502
00:19:27,667 --> 00:19:30,266
Like, um...
my first ring I had was gold.
503
00:19:30,266 --> 00:19:31,567
And it was all right.
504
00:19:31,567 --> 00:19:33,200
You know,
I was married once before.
505
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,667
I just, kind of, just wanted
something different.
506
00:19:35,667 --> 00:19:38,867
What about a stripe
of the black metal on my ring?
507
00:19:38,867 --> 00:19:40,567
-[Lisa] You could do that.
-What about that?
508
00:19:40,567 --> 00:19:41,767
-Oh...
-And match and mix them.
509
00:19:41,767 --> 00:19:42,967
-Wow.
-Let's do the black.
510
00:19:42,967 --> 00:19:44,066
-Let's do that.
-That'll be really cool.
511
00:19:44,066 --> 00:19:44,900
[Christine softly] Yes!
512
00:19:46,867 --> 00:19:47,867
[all laughing]
513
00:19:47,867 --> 00:19:50,467
Yeah, so David and I
both picked out our rings.
514
00:19:50,467 --> 00:19:52,667
David has a black ring,
515
00:19:52,667 --> 00:19:56,166
and then my ring
has yellow gold, platinum,
516
00:19:56,166 --> 00:19:58,300
and then the marquise,
and put them black in there.
517
00:19:58,300 --> 00:20:00,000
It... it's beautiful.
518
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,567
I didn't know I was,
kind of, an edgy
kind of a person,
519
00:20:03,567 --> 00:20:04,800
and it appears I am.
520
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,300
-Congratulations.
-Thank you so much.
So good to meet you.
521
00:20:09,467 --> 00:20:11,967
...and I told you
I could marry you tonight?
522
00:20:11,967 --> 00:20:13,166
Yeah, I do.
523
00:20:13,166 --> 00:20:15,500
-Well, I was ready then.
-I know.
524
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:17,500
I was single for too long.
525
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:18,600
Yeah.
526
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,166
And I'm very unhappy.
527
00:20:20,166 --> 00:20:21,900
But now I'm very happy.
528
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:23,300
Same.
529
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:28,667
[Janelle] The clock is really
ticking on this note,
530
00:20:28,667 --> 00:20:30,000
and we owe this money.
531
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,300
If I have to take
action legally, I will.
532
00:20:32,300 --> 00:20:34,066
What? What about us?
533
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:35,400
What about you living
on the property?
534
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,634
What about you and me?
535
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:39,200
Janelle and I talking...
536
00:20:39,667 --> 00:20:42,600
about reconciliation...
537
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,834
is a bull... [bleep]
pipe dream from both of us.
538
00:20:56,300 --> 00:20:58,266
Oh, we have you sitting
right here, right?
539
00:20:58,266 --> 00:21:00,367
So the holidays are over with,
540
00:21:00,367 --> 00:21:03,667
and I'm... going to go
have lunch with Kody.
541
00:21:03,667 --> 00:21:05,967
I haven't seen him in person
for a long time.
542
00:21:05,967 --> 00:21:08,367
The clock is really ticking
on this note,
543
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:10,000
and we owe this money.
544
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,867
Because of the breakdown
in the family,
545
00:21:11,867 --> 00:21:13,467
there is no communication,
546
00:21:13,467 --> 00:21:14,700
there is no cooperation.
547
00:21:14,700 --> 00:21:16,066
There's nothing.
548
00:21:16,066 --> 00:21:17,667
-Hi.
-Hey. How's it going?
549
00:21:17,667 --> 00:21:19,467
-[Janelle] Good.
-[chuckling]
550
00:21:19,467 --> 00:21:22,000
So... [chuckles]
this is intimate.
551
00:21:23,066 --> 00:21:26,400
At this point,
I'm really hoping
Kody has something to say
552
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,500
or some sort of concrete plan,
553
00:21:28,500 --> 00:21:32,266
because I don't trust
very much.
554
00:21:32,266 --> 00:21:35,266
So, I've already started
to make contingency plans.
555
00:21:35,266 --> 00:21:37,767
If I have to take action
legally, I will.
556
00:21:37,767 --> 00:21:41,300
I've talked to only
one lawyer in town,
and there are a lot of them.
557
00:21:42,166 --> 00:21:43,467
So what's...
what's the occasion?
558
00:21:43,467 --> 00:21:45,100
What's... what's going on?
559
00:21:45,100 --> 00:21:46,800
Um, well...
560
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,567
I know that you've been...
561
00:21:48,567 --> 00:21:50,667
like, not wanting
to necessarily discuss
562
00:21:50,667 --> 00:21:52,467
the property, but we need to.
563
00:21:52,467 --> 00:21:55,100
Let's, kind of,
put our heads together
'cause it's coming up.
564
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:56,567
I mean, it's almost February.
565
00:21:56,567 --> 00:21:58,100
We've got months to go.
566
00:21:58,100 --> 00:22:00,867
-Um...
-We have really only about
three-and-a-half months.
567
00:22:00,867 --> 00:22:02,200
-[Kody] Yeah.
-And so if...
568
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,000
If we don't have the cash
to pay it off,
569
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,500
we're gonna need to do
some different financing.
570
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:10,200
If we can't make
this balloon payment
that's coming up,
571
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,367
in, like, three-and-a-half,
four months,
572
00:22:12,367 --> 00:22:14,800
technically, they could take
the whole property back
573
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,467
'cause we signed
a really bad contract.
574
00:22:16,467 --> 00:22:18,266
We were not smart.
575
00:22:18,266 --> 00:22:20,367
[Kody] Christine left,
and because of the equity
in her home,
576
00:22:20,367 --> 00:22:23,800
she traded that for her
equity in Coyote Pass.
577
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,166
So now Coyote Pass
has just got four owners.
578
00:22:26,166 --> 00:22:27,867
How are we going to divide,
yada yada yada...
579
00:22:27,867 --> 00:22:29,367
We're still going
through that process,
580
00:22:29,367 --> 00:22:30,600
and Janelle is like, "Well,
we've got to pay it off.
581
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,700
We've got to pay it off.
Got to pay it off."
582
00:22:31,700 --> 00:22:34,367
Well, I don't feel like
doing you any favors, Janelle.
583
00:22:34,367 --> 00:22:36,900
But I know
we have to pay it off.
584
00:22:36,900 --> 00:22:38,500
So I have thought about...
585
00:22:38,500 --> 00:22:41,233
Are you interested
in buying me out?
586
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,500
Well, wait a second. Um...
587
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,900
You jumped to the end.
[chuckles]
588
00:22:51,367 --> 00:22:53,100
What? What about us?
589
00:22:53,100 --> 00:22:54,500
What about you
living on the property?
590
00:22:54,500 --> 00:22:55,900
What about you and me?
591
00:22:57,166 --> 00:22:58,667
I don't...
Honey, I don't think
592
00:22:58,667 --> 00:23:01,600
we even exist
in the same universe anymore.
593
00:23:03,467 --> 00:23:04,967
Like, I think you're awesome.
594
00:23:04,967 --> 00:23:07,667
And whenever we talk,
I still feel that, like...
595
00:23:07,667 --> 00:23:10,066
you've got this little...
this little...
596
00:23:10,066 --> 00:23:11,467
hook in me or whatever,
597
00:23:11,467 --> 00:23:13,266
but I've been
so happy that I don't...
598
00:23:13,266 --> 00:23:15,467
I don't foresee...
599
00:23:15,467 --> 00:23:18,133
I don't foresee
a long-term thing for us.
600
00:23:19,500 --> 00:23:21,800
I don't even know
who he is anymore, really.
601
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,367
Like, he hasn't been
in my house for two years.
602
00:23:25,367 --> 00:23:29,000
Mmm. We haven't really talked
about our relationship.
603
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:30,600
We've had some conversations.
It's not like
604
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,567
-we've not talked.
-Yeah, no,
but that's not really...
605
00:23:32,567 --> 00:23:34,700
having a conversation
about our relationship.
606
00:23:36,767 --> 00:23:38,667
We have had
so many conversations
607
00:23:38,667 --> 00:23:41,100
where I've said,
"It's done. We're done.
We're not compatible,"
608
00:23:41,100 --> 00:23:43,367
and he's agreed.
And he's like,
"Yeah, it's really sad."
609
00:23:43,367 --> 00:23:45,467
I don't I... I...
610
00:23:45,467 --> 00:23:47,000
Like, why are we talking
about it then?
611
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,166
I feel like it's almost like
a diversion tactic.
612
00:23:49,166 --> 00:23:50,467
Here's the thing,
613
00:23:50,467 --> 00:23:53,000
the things that have gone on,
my relationship
with Christine,
614
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,400
my relationship with Meri...
615
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:55,867
Meri and I, fortunately,
616
00:23:55,867 --> 00:23:58,467
are in a place
where we'll always be friends.
617
00:23:58,467 --> 00:24:02,000
-I'll never say a bad thing
about Meri... again.
-[Janelle] Mmm-hmm.
618
00:24:03,100 --> 00:24:05,300
Janelle and I talking...
619
00:24:05,300 --> 00:24:08,400
about reconciliation...
620
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,367
is a bull... [bleep]
pipe dream from both of us.
621
00:24:11,367 --> 00:24:14,467
I talk about reconciling
with her
622
00:24:14,467 --> 00:24:18,000
because I'd like to be back
in graces with my children.
623
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,900
But I know
that reconciling with her
624
00:24:20,900 --> 00:24:24,567
would require
some kind of power game
625
00:24:24,567 --> 00:24:27,367
where I gave her all the power
in the relationship,
626
00:24:27,367 --> 00:24:31,066
which I think is fair
because I had it
for so many years.
627
00:24:31,066 --> 00:24:32,867
But I'm not interested
in that.
628
00:24:32,867 --> 00:24:36,100
I think it's...
it's a fake discussion
for both of us.
629
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:39,567
And the reason is,
is 'cause I think both of us,
630
00:24:39,567 --> 00:24:41,800
I'm telling you
my heart's truth,
631
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,000
don't want to be the one
that's accountable
for breaking up.
632
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,400
He wants a wife
that acts differently
than I do. [chuckles]
633
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,967
So, uh... it's... It's over.
634
00:24:51,967 --> 00:24:53,600
It's over. I...
635
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:58,166
I guess I don't need
some finality piece
to say that., so...
636
00:24:58,166 --> 00:24:59,867
You know, you complain
about my independence,
637
00:24:59,867 --> 00:25:02,233
and I will complain
about your...
638
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,567
selfishness
and self-absorbed...
639
00:25:06,567 --> 00:25:08,166
you're a little bit...
640
00:25:08,166 --> 00:25:10,967
Is that in the past two years,
with the divorce?
641
00:25:10,967 --> 00:25:12,900
-No, just--
-[Kody] You feel like
I always was?
642
00:25:12,900 --> 00:25:14,400
Maybe you always were.
643
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,567
And there's a big question
of the kids.
644
00:25:20,567 --> 00:25:22,400
The kids now talk about
the dad they grew up with
645
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:23,834
versus who you are now.
646
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,800
Well, they've shut me out,
647
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,867
and they're going
based upon...
648
00:25:28,867 --> 00:25:29,934
recency bias.
649
00:25:29,934 --> 00:25:32,300
They're going based upon
what happened during COVID.
650
00:25:33,367 --> 00:25:36,066
You know, even through
the ebbs and flows
in our relationship,
651
00:25:36,066 --> 00:25:38,100
he was always a good dad.
652
00:25:38,100 --> 00:25:40,266
That always
endeared him to me.
653
00:25:40,266 --> 00:25:43,367
But now, I don't know
how I would ever reconcile
with him,
654
00:25:43,367 --> 00:25:46,700
and not... have him
not have a relationship
with my kids. No.
655
00:25:46,700 --> 00:25:48,600
I'm gonna always
choose my kids.
[chuckles softly]
656
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,567
I'm always gonna
choose my kids.
657
00:25:50,567 --> 00:25:54,567
I always felt like your life
centered so much
about Robyn's house.
658
00:25:54,567 --> 00:25:58,600
Well, in the past two years,
Robyn's been this place
that things were safe.
659
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,433
Kody, even before that,
it felt like there was...
660
00:26:02,467 --> 00:26:04,500
I wasn't as important.
661
00:26:06,667 --> 00:26:09,767
I don't know,
I feel like any time
Kody makes a choice
662
00:26:09,767 --> 00:26:12,266
and they don't like it,
I get blamed.
663
00:26:12,266 --> 00:26:14,867
There's this new concept
664
00:26:14,867 --> 00:26:18,667
that I... have Kody
just wrapped around
my little finger,
665
00:26:18,667 --> 00:26:21,467
and I'm...
doing evil spells on him,
666
00:26:21,467 --> 00:26:25,467
and I'm... [laughs]
Ridiculous.
667
00:26:25,467 --> 00:26:29,200
If you know Kody Brown,
you know he's not
to be controlled.
668
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,467
And that's right. Your life
is very much centered
around the little kids,
669
00:26:32,467 --> 00:26:34,500
-and... and all of that.
-Always was.
670
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:37,066
-Always was, But I--
-When you don't have
little kids,
671
00:26:37,066 --> 00:26:39,000
does that mean that, you know,
the generation gap
672
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,200
between you and Robyn
is too much to...
673
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,867
-to actually bridge?
-I... I don't find
674
00:26:42,867 --> 00:26:44,300
I have much in common...
675
00:26:45,100 --> 00:26:45,900
with her.
676
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:49,734
And I feel like...
677
00:26:50,500 --> 00:26:51,767
um...
678
00:26:51,767 --> 00:26:53,900
I feel like it's a problem
that I'm not...
679
00:26:53,900 --> 00:26:56,066
And then Kody,
there's these times when...
680
00:26:56,066 --> 00:26:59,200
I can remember, one time
we were traveling...
I think it was my birthday.
681
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,800
And you started
getting mad at me
about a conversation
682
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,066
that you and...
I had had with her
683
00:27:04,066 --> 00:27:06,233
that I don't know
how you knew about...
684
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,567
unless she came to you
and told you.
685
00:27:09,567 --> 00:27:12,767
So, I had a conversation
with Robyn years ago
686
00:27:12,767 --> 00:27:14,867
when she was getting ready
to buy the house.
687
00:27:14,867 --> 00:27:18,767
And I just said to her,
"Please, if you cannot...
buy something
688
00:27:18,767 --> 00:27:21,567
that's gonna chew
through our resources."
689
00:27:21,567 --> 00:27:23,800
And, you know, we all agreed
she was amiable with me,
690
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,734
but apparently...
691
00:27:26,367 --> 00:27:29,767
she went and, uh,
told on me to Kody,
692
00:27:29,767 --> 00:27:33,300
And Kody's like, "Well,
you were so mean to Robyn
about blah, blah, blah."
693
00:27:33,300 --> 00:27:36,266
And I'm like, "Uh...
Well, I don't know how
you know that.
694
00:27:36,266 --> 00:27:38,000
I don't know how you know
about that conversation.
695
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,000
I didn't ever say anything
to you about it," so...
696
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,667
So I didn't tattle on Janelle.
697
00:27:42,667 --> 00:27:45,867
I just told Kody that Janelle
and I were in agreement
698
00:27:45,867 --> 00:27:47,800
about not buying my home.
699
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,100
And then it turned into
some big, huge thing,
700
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:51,900
and I got into trouble
with Janelle
701
00:27:51,900 --> 00:27:53,700
because Kody got after her.
702
00:27:53,700 --> 00:27:56,100
It was just that her
and I agreed,
703
00:27:56,100 --> 00:27:58,100
and I thought that
was important to tell him.
704
00:27:58,100 --> 00:27:59,600
Don't go down that road.
705
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,567
We're trying to heal things.
706
00:28:01,567 --> 00:28:03,567
More destruction isn't
gonna help us here.
707
00:28:03,567 --> 00:28:06,066
Okay, then I... If you...
If I can't talk freely,
708
00:28:06,066 --> 00:28:08,800
then let's just leave it
as I don't really want to.
709
00:28:10,467 --> 00:28:12,800
This happens every time.
710
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,400
I... the kids talk to him
about Robyn
711
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:16,667
or I talk to him, it's like,
712
00:28:16,667 --> 00:28:17,767
he just doesn't wanna
go there.
713
00:28:17,767 --> 00:28:18,767
That's his sacred cow.
714
00:28:18,767 --> 00:28:19,867
She's perfect.
715
00:28:19,867 --> 00:28:21,467
Don't dare talk about her.
716
00:28:21,467 --> 00:28:25,066
And I'm like, "Well, dude,
how do you expect to be
in a plural marriage with me?"
717
00:28:25,066 --> 00:28:28,300
If you have this...
this person that you worship,
718
00:28:28,300 --> 00:28:30,367
That's part of being a husband
in a plural marriage.
719
00:28:30,367 --> 00:28:32,800
You have to be able
to hear everybody equally.
720
00:28:37,266 --> 00:28:38,767
So today is my birthday,
721
00:28:38,767 --> 00:28:41,000
and I get to finally see
722
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,000
my carriage house all done.
723
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,567
[Blair] You've a workout area.
724
00:28:44,567 --> 00:28:46,367
-You've got a yoga area.
-Oh, my God. Wait.
725
00:28:46,367 --> 00:28:49,667
-And we can do
my pole dancing...
-[Blair] TRX, yes.
726
00:28:49,667 --> 00:28:52,100
-I mean, TRX...
-[Jenn laughing]
727
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:53,767
I'm officially a single woman,
728
00:28:53,767 --> 00:28:58,367
and that's really been weird
729
00:28:58,367 --> 00:29:00,066
to wrap my head around.
730
00:29:10,266 --> 00:29:11,800
It's my birthday!
731
00:29:12,667 --> 00:29:13,767
So today is my birthday,
732
00:29:13,767 --> 00:29:17,900
and I get to finally see
my carriage house all done.
733
00:29:17,900 --> 00:29:20,000
Blair has been here
working on it,
734
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,567
and Jenn has really taken
on the role of contractor.
735
00:29:24,567 --> 00:29:26,767
She's done an amazing job.
736
00:29:26,767 --> 00:29:30,600
This is like a very, very good
birthday present
for me this year.
737
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,900
It's just good timing.
738
00:29:32,266 --> 00:29:33,867
It's all good timing.
739
00:29:33,867 --> 00:29:35,667
It's only been
just about a month
740
00:29:35,667 --> 00:29:38,233
since I officially split
from Kody.
741
00:29:38,567 --> 00:29:40,100
I'm grieving a loss
742
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:43,834
of what I thought
was going to be forever.
743
00:29:44,367 --> 00:29:45,800
That is just weird.
744
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,867
I don't know what other word
to put to it,
745
00:29:48,867 --> 00:29:52,100
except for it's just weird.
746
00:29:52,100 --> 00:29:54,667
-Hey.
-We're ready for you.
747
00:29:54,667 --> 00:29:56,333
[Meri] I'm so ready.
748
00:29:57,900 --> 00:30:00,600
-[Jenn] I can't just cry
in face.
-[Blair] Deep breath.
749
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,900
-I haven't cried--
-You're already getting
teary eyed.
750
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,300
I'm so excited.
751
00:30:05,300 --> 00:30:09,000
So the carriage house
is going to be my work space.
752
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,467
I run
an online clothing business
753
00:30:12,467 --> 00:30:15,100
and then upstairs
is going to be a gym for me.
754
00:30:15,100 --> 00:30:17,767
This space
has just been storage.
755
00:30:17,767 --> 00:30:21,867
It was a cement floor,
and just basic walls,
756
00:30:21,867 --> 00:30:25,500
like they weren't
even painted,
and I cannot wait to see it.
757
00:30:26,066 --> 00:30:28,000
-Okay.
-Are you ready?
758
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,166
[Meri] Yes.
759
00:30:29,166 --> 00:30:32,166
I have some high expectations
for this.
760
00:30:32,166 --> 00:30:34,266
I have seen some of the work
that Blair does.
761
00:30:34,266 --> 00:30:36,333
I am so excited to see this.
762
00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:38,400
After you.
763
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:39,934
Oh, it's really pretty.
764
00:30:40,667 --> 00:30:42,100
It's really pretty.
765
00:30:43,066 --> 00:30:44,433
Oh, my God.
766
00:30:48,100 --> 00:30:49,100
[laughs]
767
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:50,667
My God.
768
00:30:50,667 --> 00:30:53,367
It's completely transformed.
769
00:30:53,367 --> 00:30:55,600
Holy [bleep]!
770
00:30:56,667 --> 00:30:59,166
This is the most
amazing transformation.
771
00:30:59,166 --> 00:31:02,166
Like, I can't stop looking
at all the things,
772
00:31:02,166 --> 00:31:06,100
all the detail, all the things
that he's hung up on the wall.
773
00:31:06,100 --> 00:31:09,000
But one of the best parts
about it is the countertop.
774
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,300
I'm dying. It's amazing.
775
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,233
Amazing.
776
00:31:13,233 --> 00:31:15,467
I need you to direct your eye
to that up corner right there.
777
00:31:15,467 --> 00:31:16,600
[sighs]
778
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,200
[Meri] She's just hanging out.
779
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,367
-[Blair] Had to be front
and center looking over you.
-[Jenn] Uh-huh.
780
00:31:22,367 --> 00:31:24,900
So when my mom passed away,
781
00:31:24,900 --> 00:31:27,000
we had a bunch of her
favorite shirts,
782
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,000
and we had them made
into these memory bears.
783
00:31:31,166 --> 00:31:32,600
This is so good.
784
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,266
[Blair] I'm so glad
you like it.
785
00:31:34,266 --> 00:31:36,266
[crying] It is so good.
786
00:31:36,266 --> 00:31:38,300
[Blair] Oh. You deserve it.
787
00:31:38,867 --> 00:31:40,567
[Meri] It keeps my mom close.
788
00:31:40,567 --> 00:31:42,200
She loved the B&B.
789
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,600
She loved living here,
790
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,266
so it's just appropriate
to have this out here.
791
00:31:47,266 --> 00:31:51,567
-Thank you for all the [bleep]
you had to deal with.
-[laughing]
792
00:31:51,567 --> 00:31:56,166
You know, it's no secret
that Kody
and I have had struggles
793
00:31:56,166 --> 00:31:58,567
in our relationship
for a lot of years.
794
00:31:58,567 --> 00:32:00,600
All that money,
we just don't have it.
795
00:32:02,066 --> 00:32:02,934
Here's the thing.
796
00:32:02,934 --> 00:32:05,433
The answer is yes,
on... on conditions,
797
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,867
but we don't have it now.
798
00:32:07,867 --> 00:32:11,100
So in the springtime,
I think we might be able
to revisit this.
799
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:12,767
[Janelle] I don't know.
I mean, I don't know
a timeframe.
800
00:32:12,767 --> 00:32:14,900
I'm not gonna wait
until the spring.
801
00:32:15,467 --> 00:32:16,800
I can't wait until the spring.
802
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,667
So I'm actually,
803
00:32:18,667 --> 00:32:21,700
we'll probably
leave right now
and go do a sale.
804
00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:25,867
And start making
that other $40,000
and just, like, bust my butt.
805
00:32:25,867 --> 00:32:29,166
So don't expect me to feed
any family functions,
or anything,
806
00:32:29,166 --> 00:32:30,433
because I need to do it.
807
00:32:31,567 --> 00:32:35,467
In the years since,
like, I really have been
808
00:32:35,467 --> 00:32:38,700
doing basically everything
in my life...
809
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:40,166
alone.
810
00:32:40,166 --> 00:32:42,000
I've been very independent.
811
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,100
I've been very confident
in what I've been doing,
you know,
812
00:32:45,100 --> 00:32:48,900
and it's something
that I've had
to kind of grow into.
813
00:32:48,900 --> 00:32:52,567
Having this home
back in the family
814
00:32:52,567 --> 00:32:55,166
has really been
a big part of that.
815
00:32:55,166 --> 00:32:57,800
Oh, my gosh.
816
00:32:59,266 --> 00:33:02,867
So for my workouts,
I have my stationary bike.
817
00:33:02,867 --> 00:33:04,266
I have a lot of weights.
818
00:33:04,266 --> 00:33:05,900
I do
a lot of strength training.
819
00:33:05,900 --> 00:33:09,800
It's my space
that I'm gonna go in
and just, you know,
820
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,500
whether it's working
or working out
821
00:33:11,500 --> 00:33:15,567
or just, like, being me,
like, it's just mine.
It's all mine.
822
00:33:15,567 --> 00:33:18,867
And we can do my pole dancing.
823
00:33:18,867 --> 00:33:20,834
-I mean, TRX...
-[Jenn laughing]
824
00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:22,900
I'm officially a single woman,
825
00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:29,066
and that's really been weird
to wrap my head around.
826
00:33:29,066 --> 00:33:33,066
I'm not ready
to look into dating.
827
00:33:33,066 --> 00:33:36,567
It's so new right now,
like, I'm not ready for that.
828
00:33:36,567 --> 00:33:39,667
So Meri's reaction
was everything we had hoped
it would be.
829
00:33:39,667 --> 00:33:41,767
-And more.
-There were tears,
and that made me happy
830
00:33:41,767 --> 00:33:43,867
because she's, like--
831
00:33:43,867 --> 00:33:47,100
-She's good about
controlling her emotions.
-[Blair] Right.
832
00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:49,200
-And she deserves it, so.
-Yeah.
833
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,700
I feel so in charge.
834
00:33:50,700 --> 00:33:55,066
-Now I'm at the head--
-Well, this is your space,
so you are in charge.
835
00:33:55,066 --> 00:33:58,667
If they don't want you
at your table--
at their table, make your own.
836
00:33:58,667 --> 00:34:00,066
-[Blair] Here it is.
-[Jenn] You made your own.
837
00:34:00,066 --> 00:34:02,133
Come join me at my table,
my friends.
838
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,300
Join me at my table.
839
00:34:04,300 --> 00:34:06,100
Hello. Welcome.
840
00:34:06,100 --> 00:34:09,700
I don't have to be somewhere
where I'm not wanted.
841
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,667
I'm gonna have my own table,
842
00:34:13,667 --> 00:34:16,700
and the people
who want to be with me
will be in my life.
843
00:34:16,700 --> 00:34:20,667
And I am so happy about
the life that I'm creating
844
00:34:20,667 --> 00:34:23,767
and the table that I have.
845
00:34:23,767 --> 00:34:25,000
[Jenn] Yes.
846
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,400
[all cheering]
847
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,800
Okay, So I did call
that lawyer
that you talked to.
848
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,367
Oh.
849
00:34:35,367 --> 00:34:37,867
Janelle has a card
that says "victim" on it.
850
00:34:37,867 --> 00:34:39,367
She likes to play it.
851
00:34:39,367 --> 00:34:40,700
I don't know.
But I keep thinking
852
00:34:40,700 --> 00:34:42,767
that you and I
could make this work.
853
00:34:42,767 --> 00:34:46,500
In some regards, especially
coming from the culture
that we come from,
854
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:50,600
he's a failure to have lost
all his marriages
except for the one.
855
00:35:00,066 --> 00:35:02,767
Here's the thing, Kody.
The fact that
there's these sacred cows
856
00:35:02,767 --> 00:35:04,767
that I can't talk about
freely to you,
857
00:35:04,767 --> 00:35:06,867
about my emotions
and my feelings
858
00:35:06,867 --> 00:35:10,100
is a big indicator
of some things that are wrong.
859
00:35:10,100 --> 00:35:12,100
But you can't talk to me
about your feelings
and your emotions.
860
00:35:12,100 --> 00:35:14,467
No, but there's a bias,
861
00:35:14,467 --> 00:35:16,900
and I... and I... I don't want
to do that anymore.
862
00:35:18,567 --> 00:35:20,367
A bias.
863
00:35:20,367 --> 00:35:23,100
Janelle has a card.
It says "victim" on it.
864
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:24,900
She likes to play it.
865
00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:27,567
I just think
that's such a man thing,
a male thing to do.
866
00:35:27,567 --> 00:35:30,400
Like, here I am, a woman
who's really just trying
to speak up
867
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,467
and advocate
and protect herself,
868
00:35:32,467 --> 00:35:36,567
and it's labeled
as something negative,
victim behavior in this case.
869
00:35:36,567 --> 00:35:39,367
But I just don't know
if we really work.
870
00:35:39,367 --> 00:35:43,000
Because I don't feel like
I ever would be
on an equal playing ground.
871
00:35:45,300 --> 00:35:47,567
-I want to be able to talk--
-The playing field
is always equal.
872
00:35:47,567 --> 00:35:49,200
Okay, see, this is...
873
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:50,600
This is why I don't think--
874
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,467
It's like I can't even...
I can't explain to you
875
00:35:53,467 --> 00:35:55,467
and you're still...
you're getting mad
876
00:35:55,467 --> 00:35:57,567
when I'm bringing up
certain subjects.
877
00:35:57,567 --> 00:36:00,667
I'm not getting angry
about certain subjects.
878
00:36:00,667 --> 00:36:04,266
-So I just feel like--
-And there are no sacred cows.
879
00:36:04,266 --> 00:36:07,100
My primary motivation,
880
00:36:07,100 --> 00:36:11,533
for Janelle and I reconciling
would be for our family.
881
00:36:12,367 --> 00:36:13,600
I... I...
882
00:36:14,700 --> 00:36:17,367
But for us to reconcile,
883
00:36:17,367 --> 00:36:23,166
I will want her and I
to partner with each other.
884
00:36:23,166 --> 00:36:26,734
It's not been
a real partnership ever.
885
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:32,133
I almost don't really
consider us married anymore.
886
00:36:33,066 --> 00:36:34,333
I mean, we're married.
887
00:36:34,333 --> 00:36:36,667
-Well, then--
-My spiritual belief
says that we're married--
888
00:36:36,667 --> 00:36:40,000
That's-- Let's... Let's cut
the bull[bleep] about
what you just--
889
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,600
No, you have to know,
I really struggle with how
to proceed here.
890
00:36:44,367 --> 00:36:46,400
Because I know
I don't want to go back.
891
00:36:47,767 --> 00:36:50,100
I don't want to be married
to him anymore,
892
00:36:50,100 --> 00:36:52,800
but yet I don't even know
who to go ask
893
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,867
for a release.
894
00:36:53,867 --> 00:36:57,367
However, I do know that Meri
895
00:36:57,367 --> 00:36:59,367
was able to just get
a spiritual release,
896
00:36:59,367 --> 00:37:01,367
and we are both
in the same boat.
897
00:37:01,367 --> 00:37:03,800
We haven't been
part of that congregation
for a long time.
898
00:37:05,100 --> 00:37:06,667
So maybe I... maybe I can.
899
00:37:06,667 --> 00:37:08,033
Maybe I can get one.
900
00:37:08,367 --> 00:37:10,166
[sighs]
901
00:37:10,166 --> 00:37:13,266
I think maybe it's just
the pressure of the faith.
902
00:37:13,266 --> 00:37:16,867
Maybe it's the idea
that I don't want
to have another failure.
903
00:37:16,867 --> 00:37:19,834
I don't know. But I keep
thinking that you and I
could make this work.
904
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,500
I think you and I would have
to be different people.
905
00:37:30,166 --> 00:37:31,033
Ah.
906
00:37:31,867 --> 00:37:33,600
You know, Kody keeps
bringing up this.
907
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:34,867
Could we
get back together again?
908
00:37:34,867 --> 00:37:38,700
And I just don't think
it's really driven
by any real emotion.
909
00:37:38,700 --> 00:37:40,767
Because if we were
truly heartbroken,
910
00:37:40,767 --> 00:37:43,166
you would be seeing
a lot more distress,
911
00:37:43,166 --> 00:37:45,266
a lot more effort
on both sides.
912
00:37:45,266 --> 00:37:49,066
All I can think is that
it's somehow driven
by his ego.
913
00:37:49,066 --> 00:37:52,467
In some regards, especially
coming from the culture
that we come from,
914
00:37:52,467 --> 00:37:57,133
he's a failure to have lost
all his marriages
except for the one.
915
00:37:57,667 --> 00:37:58,967
What do you really want to do?
916
00:37:58,967 --> 00:38:01,300
Do you want to build
out there, or would you
like me to buy it?
917
00:38:01,867 --> 00:38:03,200
Probably the money.
918
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,100
But if the land is what I get,
then I'm happy
to build out there.
919
00:38:06,100 --> 00:38:08,800
In fact, I thought if I took
that four-acre piece,
920
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,767
I'd probably just build
a house right up on the hill.
921
00:38:10,767 --> 00:38:12,266
Forget the casino.
922
00:38:12,967 --> 00:38:15,867
If you build out there,
you will be calling me
every week.
923
00:38:15,867 --> 00:38:17,000
I know, that's part of it too.
924
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,467
I'm not sure
I can do that independently.
925
00:38:19,467 --> 00:38:21,800
Do you want to try
a love affair again?
926
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,300
[laughs]
927
00:38:23,300 --> 00:38:25,367
The property shouldn't be
the motivation there.
928
00:38:25,367 --> 00:38:29,700
-That's tough.
-I need my autonomy.
I need my independence.
929
00:38:29,700 --> 00:38:31,834
You know what I mean?
I just do.
930
00:38:32,500 --> 00:38:35,266
If she builds
on Coyote Pass...
931
00:38:35,266 --> 00:38:36,700
[clears throat]
932
00:38:36,700 --> 00:38:40,100
...I believe
that Robyn and I will go,
933
00:38:40,100 --> 00:38:41,800
"Wait a second.
934
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:43,900
The ex-wife is on Coyote Pass.
935
00:38:43,900 --> 00:38:46,600
Why are we going
to go on to Coyote Pass?"
936
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,200
If Janelle built
on Coyote Pass,
937
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,867
it would set me free, I think,
938
00:38:50,867 --> 00:38:53,467
because I would leave
this area.
939
00:38:53,467 --> 00:38:56,567
If you buy me out,
then I can go where Maddie is,
940
00:38:56,567 --> 00:38:59,266
or you know I have options.
941
00:38:59,266 --> 00:39:01,667
-Which I have thought about.
-Mm-hmm.
942
00:39:01,667 --> 00:39:03,533
Moving closer
to the grandkids.
943
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,166
[Kody] Hmm.
944
00:39:05,166 --> 00:39:08,066
Why didn't she call me
to tell me
she was having a baby?
945
00:39:08,066 --> 00:39:10,734
The kids are all feeling
very estranged from you.
946
00:39:11,867 --> 00:39:14,867
Maddie has observed to me
that Kody has not been out
947
00:39:14,867 --> 00:39:17,867
to see her kids
since Evie was born.
948
00:39:17,867 --> 00:39:19,667
And Evie's three.
949
00:39:19,667 --> 00:39:23,467
Maddie's like,
"Why would I tell him
that I'm having another one?"
950
00:39:23,467 --> 00:39:26,467
He hasn't really shown
that much interest
in the other two.
951
00:39:26,467 --> 00:39:31,166
Oh. They're talking like
I've done something,
kind of, evil to them.
952
00:39:31,166 --> 00:39:33,333
I'm missing something here.
953
00:39:34,367 --> 00:39:36,033
You know, I just-- I can--
954
00:39:37,266 --> 00:39:40,133
There's a lot of nuances,
and I can't be in the middle.
955
00:39:43,266 --> 00:39:44,934
Jealousy and gossip.
956
00:39:45,967 --> 00:39:48,033
No, I think
there's a lot more to it.
957
00:39:49,967 --> 00:39:54,600
[Kody] I was a hero
for 25 years with these kids.
958
00:39:55,567 --> 00:39:57,767
And now I'm not.
959
00:39:57,767 --> 00:40:00,000
I don't know. I don't know
the answers to this.
960
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,600
I know that it's been
a hard process
and that I am moving forward
961
00:40:06,367 --> 00:40:09,767
with a lot of disappointment
in failure.
962
00:40:09,767 --> 00:40:16,367
But hope that we can patch up
some of the heartbreak.
963
00:40:16,367 --> 00:40:20,000
Okay, so I did call
that lawyer
that you talked to
964
00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:21,634
a few years ago
965
00:40:21,634 --> 00:40:24,367
because he's the only real...
real estate guy in town.
966
00:40:24,367 --> 00:40:25,700
Oh.
967
00:40:25,700 --> 00:40:27,266
He said he would meet
with both of us
968
00:40:27,266 --> 00:40:29,567
because he's talked to you
a few years ago.
969
00:40:29,567 --> 00:40:33,266
He felt more comfortable
if we were both
in the office together.
970
00:40:33,266 --> 00:40:36,000
And it would be simply
a fact-finding thing.
971
00:40:36,867 --> 00:40:39,667
Like, what we can do,
what the constraints are.
972
00:40:39,667 --> 00:40:42,300
You know, even have him
look at the contract we have.
973
00:40:44,667 --> 00:40:46,734
I... I think Janelle
974
00:40:48,166 --> 00:40:49,867
would do anything
she could to screw me,
975
00:40:49,867 --> 00:40:52,200
so she's afraid
I'll try to screw her.
976
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:53,667
[laughs]
977
00:40:53,667 --> 00:40:56,000
And so where I'm at is,
I'm bitter.
978
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,266
And I don't care. [laughs]
979
00:41:00,266 --> 00:41:02,600
We've got to head off
the nine-alarm fire.
980
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,100
-Yeah.
-And then we can talk about--
981
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:05,767
Just talk to the lawyer
after we've got
more information.
982
00:41:05,767 --> 00:41:07,100
-Okay. All right.
-Okay.
983
00:41:07,100 --> 00:41:08,467
That's good with me.
984
00:41:08,467 --> 00:41:13,066
And again,
there's no definite, like,
yeah, we're going to do this.
985
00:41:13,066 --> 00:41:16,367
[Kody] I have made an effort
for you for years.
986
00:41:16,367 --> 00:41:18,100
And what did you give me?
987
00:41:18,100 --> 00:41:20,400
You betrayed me.
988
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,100
She teamed up with Christine
when Christine was leaving.
989
00:41:23,100 --> 00:41:25,867
She gave Christine
her empathy, her sympathy,
990
00:41:25,867 --> 00:41:28,634
her kindness,
her attention, her time.
991
00:41:29,867 --> 00:41:31,700
So you worry about
what you're gonna do,
992
00:41:31,700 --> 00:41:33,567
and I'll worry about
what I'm gonna do.
993
00:41:33,567 --> 00:41:36,000
-So, hey, I'll see you later.
-Bye.
994
00:41:38,467 --> 00:41:40,800
Okay, maybe it's time
for me to lawyer up.
995
00:41:45,367 --> 00:41:47,700
[Kody reading]
996
00:41:47,700 --> 00:41:50,867
Kody and I
have officially said
it's not working.
997
00:41:50,867 --> 00:41:53,900
I mean, I wish things,
you know, in the family
998
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:55,734
could have gone
a different way.
999
00:41:57,367 --> 00:41:58,900
Yeah, me, too.
1000
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:02,066
I've had some
definite cutting-ties moments.
1001
00:42:02,066 --> 00:42:04,266
-This is Savanah,
one of my girls.
-[David] Hi.
1002
00:42:04,266 --> 00:42:06,667
And then this is Gabe,
one of my boys.
1003
00:42:06,667 --> 00:42:12,233
I hope that Meri and Janelle
are moving on with
