Finally an interesting moment of the mother wanting to surprise visit Nesanel and Rikki

Didn’t we all see this coming?

I’m not sure why Nesanel was so convinced that no one would ever visit him so FAR away…

Obviously. It's not like they moved to Mars. Or even to another country. I mean it's just Dallas for heavens sake, of course it was going to happen

I think she'll be horrified but will then go along with the 'illusion'.

It's annoying though. Rikki should not go along with it.

I feel like Rikki (is that her name?) and her kids are being abused. What kind of man puts his family through all this? All to keep up his phony image. Is this even realistic?

Also doesn’t really add up everything is in the news today unfortunately, someone would have seen this accident reported

About the accident, that storyline was just dropped. Like he put a guy in the hospital, he’s being sued and all he’s concerned about is the “family chat”

This story is entertaining but way out there

I was waiting for this, as soon as I read last week that Rikki started working for a medical referral company.

Rikki got a job in a medical referral agency. She's now working alongside her super sweet neighbor. Boss is extremely nice. The boss and neighbor go into a meeting and give her a file to look at so she could see a sample intake file to know which information to ask for. It's a file on her nephew (the one with the crazy behavioral issues). Oh and of course she was told earlier that she's never ever allowed to talk about who any of the clients are outside the office!!!

That's far fetched. Why would Malky and whatever her husband's name contact a medical referral agency this far if they aren't planning on moving there (obviously, cause Rikki's family went there)?

Are Riki's parents mentioned anywhere in the story? Do they even matter?

Not that I recall.

I wonder what happened to senior Mr Kanner. He had some news he didn't want to share with his wife. I had originally thought it'll be a sickness they'll hide and they'll use the same referral agency that Riki just got a job at.

But now with Malky having used the referral agency I think it's too much to have Mr Kanner call in as well.

What's your theory?

I think he must have heard about the issues with one of his sons (probably the lawyer - sorry I don't remember which son is which. Can't keep the names straight especially since two of them begin with the letter n) from someone in shul and is keeping it from his wife.

How low does ones self esteem have to be to drag his family through all this, not ask for help from his parents and brothers, just to keep up appearances..
this story makes me sad and mad.

I thought it would be some kind of trouble that they also have to be busy hiding from everyone including the kids. The author seems to be trying to build a giant tower with all family members pretending to everyone else that life is perfect. At some point itll all come crashing down. I assumed the seniors will also be dealing with something. Perhaps it has to do with the shidduch age son ?

I'd want it to be something more interesting than just discovering all the lies.

I blame the daughter in laws. They should not put up with this craziness. The men grew up with this disfunction. It's ingrained in them and they can't see how it isn't normal but the wives should not tolerate it. In Riki case she had to refuse the move and ask for help. It would kill her husband's self esteem but hopefully once it's shot he'd be able to rehabilitate himself from the disfunction. To go along with the pretend life is so damaging to her sanity.
