Ep 2. Irreconcilable Differences

In Seeking Sister Wife season 3 episode 2, titled "Irreconcilable Differences," viewers are taken through the continued journey of two couples and their attempts to add a sister wife to their polygamous families. However, as the episode title suggests, some irreconcilable differences arise and cause tension and uncertainty in both relationships.

First, viewers catch up with the Snowdens, a polygamous family who have already welcomed a potential sister wife, Christeline, into their lives. While the Snowdens originally thought Christeline was the perfect fit for their family, they soon realize that their differing beliefs and expectations about polygamy may be too hard to overcome. Dimitri, one of the heads of the Snowden household, expresses frustration with Christeline's hesitancy to fully embrace polygamy, stating that he is "done playing games." Meanwhile, his wife Ashley worries that they may have rushed into things too quickly without properly communicating their expectations with Christeline.

Next, viewers follow the Jones family, who are still searching for the perfect sister wife to join their family. They have recently started getting to know a potential match, Alexandra, but quickly run into problems when she expresses discomfort living with children who are not her own. The Joneses have two children from a previous marriage, and Alexandra is unsure if she wants to take on the responsibilities of being a stepmother without having her own children. Despite this, the Joneses remain hopeful and continue to pursue their relationship with Alexandra.

As the episode progresses, both the Snowdens and the Joneses face unique challenges in their pursuit of polygamy. The Snowdens must come to terms with the fact that their beliefs and expectations may not align with those of Christeline, and may need to acknowledge that she may not be the right fit for their family. The Joneses, on the other hand, must navigate the challenges that come with being part of a non-traditional family structure, including dealing with outside judgment and potential legal issues.

Overall, "Irreconcilable Differences" presents a complex and nuanced look at the polygamous lifestyle, including the challenges that can arise when attempting to add a new member to the family. Through the experiences of the Snowdens and the Joneses, viewers are provided with a better understanding of the joys and difficulties of polygamy, and are left wondering what the future holds for these families.
