Kody, Christine and Janelle experiment with working in real estate; the teens are going out with new friends in Las Vegas; Robyn and Kody receive a scare.

I have seen these early episode several times, but there's an interesting dynamic I noticed this time around. Let's just say Robyn's influence on the family and on Kody is especially evident. But only if you're keeping an eye out for it! She is tricky to say the least.

Also in this episode, the teens spill their secret-not-so-secret dating history, Christine climbs onto Kody's shoulders, and Janelle is jumping out of her skin to go back to work.

My kids are young, but this episode still got me thinking about their sexual health education, or as it's called in their school-- 'body science', and how I am and will do things differently than the Browns. They sure are shaming and rigid. BUT I think there are more messages being communicated between the lines...

How did 'the talk' go for you growing up?

Robyn finally announces her new pregnancy; the older teens' unhappiness starts to bubble to the surface.

To be honest, I was not looking forward to this episode. The whole kerfuffle about announcing Robyn's pregnancy with Sol BOTHERS me. From performatively telling Meri 'privately' on camera to Kody framing the official announcement through the de-throning of Truly as the baby to the adults following Leon who was trying to take some space, so many points had me clutching at my chest for how cringy and cruel Kody and Robyn were being. In the end though, the episode as a whole has so many iconic moments that must be unpacked. Christine calling Pastor Ray a shark predating on their children to his face. Robyn yelling about frontal lobes. It's a good one.

The Browns finally arrive in Las Vegas but face new challenges in building their life away from Utah, like finding a home. Meanwhile, which wife has exciting news to announce?

As the Browns settle in the vacation rental, they are sitting with this new reality: they no longer live under one roof, they have to find housing in under a month, and that will require a whole lot of money they don't really have. There's plenty of discussion of finite resources, what's fair, and whose needs and wants take priority when. Janelle is stressed about money. Logan continues to carry too much responsibility. Kody is just giddy to be in a new place. And Robyn is excited to decorate.
