I was shocked to see adaleen still practicing her "perfect obedience" with JJ, especially where caralyn being sealed was concerned... i mean not even giving nicki a heads up? I'm begining to think all adaleens strength died with roman. Is it possibel she really IS just going to go along with all this with no hidden agenda? I neevr would have thought it... untill this ep.

Oh no, no, no JJ77. I think Adaleen is practicing studied, careful, time-biding. She's going to get him. Sex has never been equated with love for her, so I think she's decided to tolerate JJ until she can make her move against him.

well i guess my issue is this - what utllimate agenda could she possibly have that would justify all the casualties along the way ? Casualties to he rdaughter, grand daughter, etc. ? will the end justify the means? I'm not sure.

Adaleen is really creeping me out -- her weird little bonding with Caralyn -- "We're painting fluffy clouds, and I sewed matching dresses for us, and we share a bathroom, just like sisters!" All the while knowing that poor 15 year old girl was going to be sealed to a man that had to be over 40??? Ewwwww...
Adaleen and JJ on their wedding night made my skin crawl. Adaleen seemed horrified, and resigned. Either she has something major up her sleeve and is biding her time for the perfect moment when JJ has his guard down, or she is really truly broken, and can't fight back anymore. But then, knowing Adaleen, maybe that's what will make her snap and poison his food or something...

Adaleen is nowhere near broken yet... I think she has something up her sleeve and she was obviously disgusted by JJ.

"Adaleen and JJ on their wedding night made my skin crawl."
Yeah, me too. That scene was difficult to watch. I hope she does have something up her sleeve.

Ugh, Adaleen and JJ on their wedding night was way creepier than anything Alby ever did.
I think Adaleen is biding her time and putting up with JJ until she can make her move. After all, she did plot to kill her own son at one point.

That scene was sick.
I loved it. It made your skin crawl.
Imagine Caralynn being sealed to an adult male like that.
At the very least, Adaleen is a grown woman. A 13 year old child??? It spoke volumes about some of the abusive type of polygamy practiced.

I agree that the scene was very creepy. There was a lot of creepiness in last nights episode though. It was a fast paced episode and I liked that about it, but a lot of "cringe" moments too!

Adaleen doesn't have an issue with young girls being sealed to older men, Or at least, if she does, she's buried it deep. Remember Rhonda was one of her sisters at one point. She did try to give her an education, but she has never expressed any issues with underage marriage.
Nicki did it. Presumably her other sisters did it. Rhonda did it. We must assume that Adaleen herself did it too. So, why would she try to stop Caralynn from doing it? Remember she thinks that Nicki is in the wrong with most of her views about Juniper Creek and has gone off track with regard to their religion.
However I think that is a totally different issue from her accepting being sealed to JJ. She definitely has something up her sleeve there. She's just never been one to shy away from casualties as long as they help her.

Either Adaleen is in cohoots (how do you spell that??) with Alby or is acting alone in her own best interest. I can't figure out which one it is. Alby hates Adaleen so I doubt he'd plan anything with her. I can't see those two planning lunch together let alone a whole major plan to take down J.J. ;D She certainly has some type of plan. Whatever it is. Adaleen is not a cream puff. She has had a taste of power with being the prophet's wife. There is not way she is going to be happy washing windows and painting fluffy clouds.

I think JJ "has something" on Adaleen and she has no other option than perfect obedience. I can't imagine what it could be, but she is far too strong willed to be putting up with a marriage to someone who obviously makes her skin crawl unless there was something else, even worse, at stake.
JJ has already positioned Joey by coaxing him into disinterring and burning Roman's body and then getting pictures of it.
JJ is hatching some plot that he's going to force Adaleen and Joey to play some part in. My guess is that it involves Nikki - he's got both her mother and brother-in-law beholden to him somehow and will use them against Nikki.

What was the deal with Adaleen wearing her bra and panties on top of long underwear? Did anyone else notice that?

Isn't that what they do? The long underwear is their "garments" and then they wear the bra and panties on top?
