This life is but a speck of time


Big Love is back and more interesting than ever. The recap of last season was so crazy and full of information. I had forgotten all that had happened.
This episode Bill is still hanging around with Anna but she does not seem interested in becoming his fourth wife. She really just wants to sleep with Bill. He holds out for a while but then commits a big sin. Finally by the end of the episode she comes around to the idea of dating Bill and his three wives. It looks like Anna will continue to be around for the rest of this season at least.
The Henricksen's are worried that everyone on the block knows about their plural marriage but it turns out no one does. It is a scary time to be a polygamist. Around the country they are shutting down compounds.
The UEB compound is a big mess because Alby is in charge and one of Bill's half brothers gets thrown out of the compound. Someone tries to have him killed when he is off the compound trying to illicit sex at a public restroom.
The biggest news of the whole episode is that Barb's cancer might be back. She doesn't tell anyone about it but that seems to be why she changes her mind about the 4th wife. She beat cancer 7 years ago and does not want to accept the fact that it might be back.
Margie makes herself useful by helping Bill to secure a casino business with a Native American tribe. Bill's great idea is to have Mormon friendly casino. No drinking,no smoking, kid friendly sounds weird to me. The wife of the Native American really blasts bill about the Book of Mormon's racist ideas. Margie seems to settle everyone down and the deal looks like it will go through.
Nicki has taken a job to pay off her huge credit card debt but really it is to spy at the DAs office for her mother.
Many a time during this episode I felt uncomfortable because there is a lot of creepiness and deception but I love it. Everything is so much crazier than when it all began.
