I think Wiki took out the part about Barb having an affair. I searched the article, and affair only came up in regards to Bill having an affair with Ana. The part that was quoted in the original post was changed. The last sentence is now omitted.
Obviously this isn't proof that Barb doesn't have an affair, but it's also not proof that she will. Soooo, only time will tell!

Tommy definitely looks younger than Barb... I think a lot of that has to do with the way she wears her hair and clothes though. Some men like older women...  IF they have an affair...I see it playing out like this... Barb is at the casino, obviously upset about Ben being cast out...Tommy offers to listen and hears about how she got into her polygamous marriage in the first place...She tells him about how she had cancer, and Nikki was brought in...The next wife was the babysitter...Tommy is going to tell Barb she is too beautiful and smart of a woman to have to settle for that kind of life. They'll end up in bed and she'll realize what a real man feels like and never look back.  |

I can see you've been thinking about this BLR!
I think I'd prefer more of an angry affair. Tommy and Barb are arguing about something, and while Barb is upset and defending her point, Tommy (because I can't see Barb initiating it, but it could be either one) leans over and steals a hot and steamy kiss. Barb, at first, is taken aback, but eventually falls into it, and next thing you know they're angrily going at it.

AS, I think I have part of the script for that scene.
Barb is bitching and moaning about this and that.
Tommy: Would you just shut up and listen!
Barb: I will not shut up. I am a full partner in this casino and I have a say in what goes on here. Just because... (Tommy leans in and lays a passionate kiss on Barb to shut her up)

HOT! I looked up Jeanne Tripplehorn and Adam Beach. Jeanne is 46 and Adam is 37..9 years difference! But we all knew he looked younger. I also found out he had quite a traumatic childhood...His mother died then his father killed himself. Just terrible! Anyway...I just want to see him naked. I don't care with who. LOL! |

I'm still sticking with my notion of barb having a physical / sexual affair as being too far a stretch and too far out of character. I could however see her developing feelings for someone else though and in essence having an "emotional" affair.

I agree, JJ77. I was just playing around with what I think would be the best way to make it happen if it were to. But I can't see Barb actually doing anything physical.

I aso dont really see the chemistry / sexual tension between Tommy and Barb that some seem to... so maybe that's just me? But I think for the most part I just see their tensions as being motivated by Tommy's feelings of mistrust for white people and these "mormon white people" who he's in business with... I think the breaking down of that we've seen thus far has come from him seeing Barb as a person and feeling compassion for her situation. Breaking that barrier (or even a layer of it) was not an easy thing for him , so I think that's why he felt extra betrayed by the whole sarah and layla thing when he approached barb about her knowledge of it.
I know this theory doesnt exacty lead to a steamy scene / a naked Tommy ... LOL but it's my take on it.

Some of us just want a steamy naked Tommy scene. I for one don't care who it is with as long as it's not Alby.

Wow, I never thought that Barb would have an affair but...after this epi, who knows? Looks like she's really struggling with a lot of things now & maybe it will happen. I still can't see Barb actually sleeping with someone else though, maybe more of an emotional affair?

Hey you guys DID "technically" get a steamy 1/2 naked Tommy scene last ep... including barb.
LOL
Even I thought something might happen. I'matleast starting to think maybe Tommy would be inclined to want something to. He seemed kind of amused by her being uncomfortable with him in the "sweat lodge" lol

The whole "Oh a sweat lodge." comment just made wonder otherwise. Maybe Tommy and Barb will be like Ben and Margene. Barb will fall into Tommy's arms because her husband isn't there when she needs him the most. Not a full on affair but something there. |

That was a good plot there.  It was sexy but not too much that would be totally out of character for Barb. Maybe this opens the door but I like how the door is opening slowly. I liked how Barb was sitting in her bathroom sweating...obviously that sweat lodge meant something to her.  |

But maybe that is why it will happen, because it would be out of character. Barb is human, and affairs happen all the time. Barb has got to be thinking about everything that Bill does, and face it, he hasnt been faithful to her. And with everything that Bill is doing now is not good for the family, and Barb is seeing this. Barb is not happy, and why shouldnt she be happy. She is living life on Bill's terms and the way Bill wants to live, isnt it time she lives her life, after all she was given a second chance.....
