I agree with the others that say the photo was meant as a sweet momento that will be trouble if it gets in the wrong hands. The moment I saw that, I thought of Lura!

The sex, bedroom scenes didn't bother me. They've fallen in lust and are behaving accordingly. As for the picture, I agree that Lura will likely find it.

Angel - so basically, in your bothers case, he belives that the urge to be with someone of the same sex wasnt the true desire / preference but rather something that masked his true fear of repeating the abuse he received from his own father? (the alternative having been being with women and thus risking finding himself a father.) ?
sorry if i just twisted that up, just trying to understand.
Thanks for sharing with us btw, it's very interesting... ateast to me, as it's a point of view i've never been privvy to before.

I do not want to offend anyone, but I was sickened by the gay scenes. Also, I personally find lesbian scenes quite disturbing as well. I would prefer they not show such things. To be fair though, I am not a fan of any public display of affection. Keep your sexual life private people. I was happy when Big Love cleaned up a bit from their pornographic first season, but this season is a major backslide. I will say though I was delighted to see Roman again!!! I loved his saying... (To Alby) You are a "Filthy, Unrepentant Sodamite" the best thing you could do is "jump out of a window and hope you break your neck". This was SO ROMAN GRANT!!!

(the alternative having been being with women and thus risking finding himself a father.) ? Correct. For him, it was a choice, not made by biology. Hence, my interest in how they will choose to deal with this issue on the show - not just the conflict between LDS and FLDS, but also between what both men profess to believe, and what their actions are. The last scene between the two of them didn't have either one rushing off in a fit of guilt and remorse. It had them planning to become greater parts of each others lives than they already were. That implies a relationship, even if it's hidden from the public. |

Thanks, Angel. Appreciated the explanation. Your brother's real life experience certainly fits with what the Dale character seems to be telling Alby and was inciteful about Mormonism.

angel - thanks for the clarification.
I also agree that relationship is forming, and as it does it seems dale is feeling less remorse and only feeling fear of being found out.

I really hope that Dale and Alby get caught in bed by one of their wives. LOL! Or Adaleen!

I dont think laura (alby's top wife) knows the specifics, but i definitely dont think she's clueless as to alby's sexual prefernces... and I dont think she really cares as long a sit doesnt put someone else before her in alby's esteem - IOW's as long as she feels liek she's 2nd in command.

I could live without the scenes but they are kinda integral to Alby and this storyline. It is HBO so I know what I'm getting into.  Alby really likes this guy! He did bring him jelly. ;D |

Adeleen knows her son is gay and she tried to have him killed. I wonder what Laura would do if she found out. Here is a good story line. Frank discovers the picture and blackmails Alby.

At first I totally thought that Alby was taking the picture for blackmail, but the person I was watching with thought is was a momento. I didn't even think of that as a possibility till she said it. Then the breaking into the house scene, with the turkey tettrazini and grape jelly really opened my eyes to this new side of Alby. I like this Alby so much more than the other one, and am happy that Dale is a nice guy. Alby needs to be around a nice guy.

I thnk we've seen hints of this softer side of alby before this season , but we are defnitely getting a much broader view via his reationship with Dale.
I still say laura knows ... not necessarily about dale, but that Alby is gay.
Remember when roman first got out of jail and called all his kids to that hotel to reassess everyone place , etc. (nicki went and bill caught her there?) adaleen madea "tap tap tap" rewference during that meeting and looked right at laura when she said it... laura didnt look shocked to me - just annoyed.
Also, on the day alby and dale met (the romp in th epark) she was suspicious of his "jogging" story.
I dont think she's clueless.
I think the photo was a momento but I agree someone is going to find it and it's going to bite alby right int the ass.
