TV Review: Big Love - "Reunion" Part 1
Published July 02, 2007
We hear Margie squealing outside, and Random Redhead glances through the backdoor. Maybe that’s why she’s here? Because Don’s wives would already know what Margie’s like? I … don’t know. Random says that it’s all Larry King and Anderson Cooper’s fault because they make them look like retards and perverts. Retards? Really?
More squealing and we see that Margie and Ben are running around, squirting each other with the hose. Barb looks bothered. When they finally fall in the pool, Peg just looks at Barb and Random asks which one is older, “your boy or your girl?”’ Barb purses her lips and heads outside to do some scolding.
Margie is actually on Ben’s back, holding him under the water. Barb yells at her to let him up NOW. She then barks at Ben to do his homework and when he says he did it already, she just demands that he get out. Isn’t it summer? Didn’t they just sign Teeny up for summer school? Is Ben also in summer school?? I’m too anal for these screwy timelines. Grey’s Anatomy gives me fracking anxiety attacks with everyone saying “last night” when stuff actually happened two or three days ago. Not to mention setting up an entire clinic in eight days. Ahem. Back to your regularly scheduled recap.
Barb then orders Margie back into her house to finish the nursery. I’m surprised she’s behaving this way. Usually Nicki is the one to treat Margie like one of the kids. She tells Margie that they need to teach Ben priorities. Margie nods and says okay. Barb goes on to say there needs to be play time and work time. Margie looks confused. Barb adds friend time versus family time very pointedly. She asks if Margie knows where she’s going with this. Margie smiles and says, “Of course.” She totally has no clue what Barb is talking about.
Juniper Creek. Nicki and two of her sisters, who look exactly like her, peel potatoes while Adaleen attacks a pig with a bone saw. Heh. She is so awesome. The girls talk about the poisoning and Nicki tells them that she doesn’t think Joey did it. One of the sisters says she thinks Wanda did it and asks if Nicki is still close to her. She then says that Wanda is a nutcase. Nicki looks troubled.
