Alright guys, we’re only two episodes away from the Kourtney and Kim Take New York season finale. After Sunday night’s part one episode, we get a much closer look into the lives of the famous sisters, but more importantly, we get to watch on the sidelines as Kim and Kris’ marriage slowly begins to crumble.
So here’s how this week’s episode went down. Kris’ sister Kaela comes into town to visit. However, Kris conveniently tells Kim the news the day before she’s expected to arrive. While Kim says she loves Kaela, her first words when she hears what should be exciting news is “for what?” That sure sounds like a loving sister to me. Kris doesn’t see why he should have to tell his wife in advance about the visit when it’s his home too and unlike the rest of the Kardashian whipped men, he doesn’t need permission to do stuff. Kim tells Kris that her schedule is just so busy this week that she won’t have much time to spend with the two.
Kourtney and Scott walk around New York and get a caricature drawn of them because Kourtney just hates having pictures of her in the house. Yawn. We see a bunch of scenes of the couple being all couple-y and they even decide to get a painted portrait done because it means a lot to Scott. However, Kourtney sabotages the painting when she asks the artists to put a unibrow on Scott as a joke. When he reveals the masterpiece in front of Kim and Kris, he gets upset that Kourtney made a mockery out of the whole thing. Suddenly, Kris a.k.a Frankenstein gets all Dr. Phil and breaks it down to Kourtney why Scott is so upset and encourages her to apologize. Sigh, rich-people problems.
Back to the important stuff.
When Kaela finally arrives the next day, she like any tourist wants to see and experience New York but poor Kim is just so tired that she decides to get some sleep. She later tells us that because of the tension between her and her hubby, she feels it’s best to avoid his sister altogether. What a great way to handle things, Kim. Kaela quickly begins to pick up on Kim’s cold shoulder and asks Scott and Kris if she’s upset about something because unlike Kim, Kaela really wants to get to know her new sister-in-law. Even Scott begins to chime in on the couple’s lack of communication. Scott reveals to Kaela that Kim had no idea she was coming to visit and had a lot of pre-scheduled work commitments for that week. Kaela later sends Kim a text apologizing for disrupting her busy week and decides to cut her trip short and heads back home. Kris gives it to Kim and tells her that his sister is probably over her too busy for everyone attitude.
Ironically, when Kim receives a call from the medium, John Edward, who she so badly wants to connect with in hopes to hear from her dad again, she tells him she will move whatever she has to around in order to make it work. If only she would employ that same effort to her marriage. Kim takes his call as a sign that it’s meant to be. Well of course he returned her call. What kind of businessman would pass up an opportunity for free publicity? Anyway, Kris tells Kim he doesn’t agree with speaking to the dead and feels he has a conviction from God to stand strong against such things. Despite his adamant feelings towards it, Kim goes ahead and does it anyway. But wait, she justifies it perfectly. You see, Kim says that because of his strong religious beliefs and the fact that he hasn’t lost anyone close to him before, she should just hide it from him not talk to him about it, like at all. Like her pale-skinned, white haired friend says, that sh*t is cray.
Like Kris, Kourtney is against the idea of seeing a medium but decides to go along with it for Kim’s sake. A true professional medium, John digs deep with the sisters bringing up unresolved family issues revolving their father’s passing. But what really hits home with Kim is when he mentions her previous divorce. We see Kim break down at this point, but it’s not until he leaves where she reveals to Kourtney in the last remaining minute of the show that she doesn’t want to be married anymore. Dun, dun, dun.
Only one more week until we finally see how it all goes down!
