But, yeah the scene was w-e-i-r-d. Totally gross. I just can't imagine having sex with someone so gross. Notice how she just laid there in silence. Probably was all she could do to keep from vomiting.

I thnk maybe i'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around two facets of adaleens personality - her strength and strong will & her true beleif in the principle. Somehow they end up canceling each other out in my mind. Iow's i think "how can such a strong woman allow her grandaughter to be married off to some dirty old man?!?" or "why didnt she even give Nicki a heads up?" or whatever, and forget in the process that she really beleives in the flds and living the principle, etc.

I suspect Adaleen is doing exactly what Roman would want her to do. Roman would not want JJ's inbred creepy ass becoming prophet and Adalene isn't stupid...She knows he's up to something shady.
When she first found out she was to be sealed to him she was screaming and honking her horn, HYSTERICAL over it. Then a sudden calm of acceptance?
No, she's definitely up to something and plans on ruining JJ. Giving up her body is just something she has to go through in order to get there. The look she was giving him when he was singing to her was a look of total hate and disgust.

Mormon garments are worn directly touching the skin so a bra is worn on top of the garments. I don't know about underwear.

I grew up in a mormon family and my parents wore their underwear on top of their garments. My sister is still mormon and I noticed she does the same thing. The garments shown on Big Love are traditional from the 1800's. I know that the modern garments are lightweight, two-piece, end above the knee and the top is like an undershirt. One layer too much if you ask me.

I posted in one of the other threads that I really think Adaleen has realized she can parlay her marriage to JJ into a return to the Big House. She probably believes that the two of them can manage to make him the prophet. Her perfect obedience is in line with this. She once told Barb (I think it was Barb) that she had walked over the backs of a number of sister wives to become Roman's number one. She will do it again.
Gotta love Mary Kay Place!

That is exactly it!I think that Adaleen's eyes are on the prize: THE BIG HOUSE. As long as she is the prophets wife, she is perfectly content. She knows that if JJ stays and becomes prophet, she will be right back in the big house and she can somehow find her way into JJ's esteem as a trusted wife. As far as Cara Lynn's situation, Adaleen has never spoken against sealings of under aged girls. Remember how nonchalant Adaleen acted when Nikki told her that Roman had put her in the joy book? Adaleen didn't even flinch. She reacted as any traditional polygamist woman would. She believes in the principle and all of it's trappings. I am sure that Adaleen was married off at a very young age as well; she probably sees the wrong in it but would never go against it because it is has happened for so many generations.

Adaleen is a power junkie and can spot another power monger a mile away! I think she sees potential in JJ and knows she can knock Melinda right out of her wheelchair and pull the plug on her oxygen. Remember she walked over the backs of five elder wives to become Roman's number one. Adalene is nothing if not calculating.

If Adalene unplugs Malinda's oxygen and murders her, I will be even a bigger fan of hers lol!
I hate Malinda! She reminds me of that sick woman child molester from that movie Running Scared.

Thanks for the insight into the undergarments thing.

Probably was all she could do to keep from vomiting. I doubt if that woman has any idea that sex can be fun. Lying there in silence is how she's been brought up to accept sex. Look at how Nicki freaked at the idea of oral sex! But if it's only for procreation, isn't Adaleen past the age? Mary Kay Place is 62, but Adaleen could be younger. But almost certainly past pregnancy age. But if she's not...wouldn't that be a kick?

Hopefully that means Adalene won't be breeding with JJ. LOL!

Yep. 62 - same age as me, and I WISH I looked like her!
My mother was 46 when I was born, so it can happen. But I agree, it's not likely. Since Nicki is somewhere in her 30's, and Adaleen was married very young, it might be possible, though.

could be possible adaleen becomes pregnant. My grandmother had her last child at 47 years old... she didnt think she could still get pregnant either lol so it happens.
Really hope it doesnt for adaleen though...

I love the idea of Adaleen whining and sniveling her way through pregnancy. Don't forget that Adaleen married the Prohet at 16 (remember her hilarious recording of her memoirs in her Van?) As to the ages, here is my guess: if Cara Lynn is 13 or 14, Nicki would be about 28, not more than 30, making Adaleen about 50. Unusual but not unheard of, especially when relying on natural hormones with no birth control. At the risk of TMI, I am 48 and when my SO is out of town for 2 weeks like he is twice a year, my hormones respond to his return and I know that I ovulate. So much of it really is all about biology!
