Ep 6. Blast From the Past

Seeking Sister Wife is an American reality television series that follows various families as they embark on the unique and often challenging journey of adding a sister wife to their polygamous family. In season 1, episode 6, titled "Blast From the Past," viewers are introduced to a new family joining the show, the Snowden family.

The Snowdens are a young and attractive couple from Atlanta, Georgia, who have been married for three years. Ashley, the wife, is in her late twenties and runs a successful business. While Ashley's husband, Dimitri, also in his late twenties, works as a personal trainer. The couple, who have two young children, have been looking to add a sister-wife to their family for some time now. They believe that polygamy is the best way to live their lives together and build a strong family unit.

The episode begins with Ashley and Dimitri meeting with a potential sister-wife, Vanessa. Vanessa is a beautiful and confident woman who is interested in joining the Snowden family. The couple takes Vanessa out on a date to get to know her better and discuss their lifestyle. Vanessa tells the couple that she grew up in a polygamous family and is interested in exploring this lifestyle again as an adult.

As the date progresses, Vanessa seems to fit in well with the Snowdens, and the couple is excited about the possibility of adding her to their family. They discuss the logistics of adding a third wife, including where she would live and how they would make it work financially. Ashley and Dimitri acknowledge that they have faced challenges in their search for a sister-wife, including judgment and criticism from those who do not understand their lifestyle. However, they remain committed to finding the perfect partner to join their family.

The episode then jumps to another family's journey in polygamy. The Alldredges, who were introduced in earlier episodes, are shown preparing for a visit from another potential sister-wife, Jennifer. The Alldredges are a family of five, including patriarch Garrick and his three wives, Dannielle, Roberta, and Sophie.

Jennifer arrives for her first meeting with the Alldredges, and the family spends time getting to know her and discussing their lifestyle. Jennifer expresses interest in joining the family and living in a polygamous relationship. However, the episode shows that there may be some tension between Jennifer and one of the existing wives, Dannielle, who is struggling with jealousy and feeling as though her relationship with Garrick may suffer if a new wife is added to the family.

As the episode continues, the family matriarch, Colton's family, also comes face to face with a former potential sister-wife. They dated in the past and have history to work through as well as adjusting to Colton's expectations of the lifestyle he wants to lead with his future sister wife.
