"You crazy!" Bill was sounding like a such a clueless hypocrite... About sharing Margene with Goran. Anna was spot on about him being crazy. I am liking Anna more and more these days. ;D

Not me. Ana brought us Goran. I get the feeling that mofo is the gift that keeps on giving.
Bill is an ass, for sure.
I'd love the idea of the house turning into a free love commune though. Bring back Ray for Nicki, bring on Tommy for Barb, find somebody less gross for Margene.
Bill will still get his nights, so he doesn't need to bitch about it.

LOL! I never really liked Anna, especially when she was "dating the family to be the 4th wife" but now that she sees how nuts Bill is and isn't afraid to call him out on it, I find myself hating her less. LOL! Hey you never know... With the whole tether ball court, free love commune and nudist colony might not be that far off the charts.

What made Margene change her mind about marrying Goran? Is it that Margene is afraid that she will fall for Goran and her life will end up sharing not one but two men? Is Margene changing her mind because she thinks her actions will lead to what BigLoveWrote wrote "free love commune and nudist colony might not be that far off the charts." And, it may not be as drastic as that, but I hope you get the point.
Did Margene decide to come clean that she made the decision to save herself and the marriage had nothing to do with the family? Did Margene change her mind because Goran made her uncomfortable and she decided that she did not want to have anything to do with him?
Barb made a decision about the casino and Marilyn due to her feelings of anger towards Bill. Margene made a decision to marry Goran to protect her business (even though I still do not understand how Margene being married to Goran will help Margene when and if they go public because now they will have to explain why one of the wives of Bill legally married the fiance of the woman Bill got pregnant out of wedlock and it will come out that Margene's married to Goran was based on false pretenses. And, when and if they come out Margene's marriage to Goran is not going to stop Bill from introducing Margene as his third wife. So, I don't understand why Margene thought being legally married to Goran could help her. If anyone could explain this to me please do!).
It seems as though there have been many decisions made lately based on emotions caused by Bill anger (Barb) and fear (Margene?).
Ana knew what she was getting herself into when dating the wives and Bill then deciding to get sealed. When all of the wives showed up at Ana's restaurant offering help I would think that somewhere Ana would be touched. Here Ana is pregnant with their husband's child and they are reaching out to her and being nice.

I think the whole INS thing scared the living crap out of Margene... She heard 5 years prison time and a fine and she was white as a ghost!
About Anna, I agree... She knew what the deal was and showed up saying "Okay I'm here, on your terms"... So she accepted the situation as it was. Now she's acting as if they are whacked and she's thought so all along.
I agree with everything you said Albertaleon.

I found it more than a little humorous when Bill was talking about how sharing his wives would be "nasty". His words, not mine! He did not seem to even vaguely understand why Ana would find that funny.

I agree with everything you said Albertaleon. But isn't it too late for Margene? She already married Goran, she already lied (badly) in the INS interviewer's office. If she doesn't keep pretending the marriage is real, and doesn't convince the INS of that, isn't she already in serious legal trouble?

As someone stated in another thread though, Margene just acts on impulse without thinking. She heard 5 years and in her mind figures if the marriage goes away, so does the problem.

Initially Bill said to Margene that the marriage would have to be annulled. I guess that there is time to get out of the marriage. Now with the Marilyn crisis Bill decided that Margene needs to stay married. I think it would be better and safer for everyone to have the marriage annulled.
Why did Barb tell Margene "you are playing with fire" during the teether ball scene? They are all kind of playing with fire. I think the Hendricksons need to come together and have a real family meeting. Everyone needs to start going in the same directions. Barb needs to stop saying remarks to Margene like she did during the conversation when Margene was telling Bill she did not want to be married to Ana's fiance, and, comments such as "you are playing with fire." Margene kissed Ben because she was very lonely and he was the only one to show up. Barb signed papers hiring Marilyn because she was mad at Bill. Margene and Barb both did things that were wrong and caused adverse subsequences. However, both Barb and Margene did these things due to feelings about their family.

I have NO idea why Margene did not know that marrying someone for immigration purposes is a serious thing with serious reprocusions! When she heard ALL that, she got scared. Anna and Goran knew all this but did it anyway. Only Margene was in the dark. Margene also clued us in a bit that she did it for selfish reasons. By the way, Wasn't Goran the name of the doctor on ER?

"What made Margene change her mind about marrying Goran?" Which time? She changed her mind when she realized she could go to jail for 5 years! Without mentioning that little detail to Bill, she said she wanted to get out of the marriage and Bill told her, no, not now. He's using her marriage to Goran to throw Marilyn off the scent. Margene is mad because she can't get out of this colossal mistake she's made, so she's throwing Goran in Bill's face hoping to make Bill mad and jealous enough to say, "Forget Marilyn. Get rid of this jerk." That's why Barb said, "You're playing with fire, Margene." Taunting Bill is not a good idea.

I'm not sold on Margene being this poor little girl in the dark who didn't know any better. If she is smart enough to figure out they can marry to get his citizenship then she has to be smart enough to know there are SOME consequences if you are caught. I just don't think she cared about the consequences because the consequences involved in being exposed as a polygamist, in her mind outweighed the INS consequences. She was confidant she could pull it off and use her cuteness to make it work.
It was only when she realized the INS agent wasn't buying her lies and threatening her with prison time... THEN she got scared.
Margene is becoming very self centered as time goes by and it is going to bite her in the ass. She will have no choice but to move on without Goran, Anna and the Henrickson clan.
