I Never Thought I’d See the Day

In episode 8 of The Kardashians Season 2, Kourtney and Travis are touring around Milan and visiting churches among other places before their wedding outfit trial the following day. Kourtney jokes that she plans on running down the aisle to Travis for their wedding as a gesture towards him which the Blink182 drummer approves.

The couple takes photos in their usual make-out pose and has a private tour of one of the churches. Kim is in Florida trying to get her hands on the dress and try it on another time now that she has lost a lot of weight. The mother of four reveals that the owners of the dress were not even going to let Kim try it on until the Momager, Kris called them and pulled some strings.

Kris jokes and shares that her secret is that if someone says no to her request, she’s talking to the wrong person. Kim mentions that if the dress fits her, she will be going to the MET Gala and if it does not, she won’t be going altogether. She tries on SKIMS shapewear and eventually tries on the dress with the people pushing her butt inside the dress.

Travis and Kourtney are getting ready for the wedding fitting. They share how nervous they are about the outfit trial.

Kourtney Kardashian and her entourage greet Domenico Dolce as he arrives at the event. Kourtney shares that she is close with the designer and that he has been a huge help with her upcoming wedding. Domenico starts sharing his ideas about the wedding planning, and the couple eventually part ways for their respective trials. The episode takes us through Kourtney’s fitting as she tries on her outfit. ..

Kourtney’s entourage is emotional as they see her in the outfit and the designer, Dolce starts working his magic on the dress as Kourtney is wearing it. Travis is trying on his outfit which he loves too. Kourtney tries on her veil and FaceTime’s Kris who is emotional seeing her firstborn in her wedding dress. The mother of three shares that she never imagined there would be a day when she would be trying on a wedding dress. ..

Khloe Kardashian is trying on her Moschino dress at home in the USA. Kim Kardashian says that Khloe is modelesque and “skinnier than ever” which means she should really go to the MET Gala. Khloe claims that she was coaxed into going to the event and Kim adds that she decided that Khloe had to go which means the third Kardashian sister had to go. ..

Kim let Khloe borrow her glam team in order to make Khloe feel good about herself. Khloe states that she can’t breathe in the dress and Kim states that she does not need to breathe. Kris joins the party and starts hyping Khloe up for the fitting. Kris shares that even though she is tired from the intense trial, she is taking some downtime by being there for her kids.

Khloe Kardashian shared how great she feels in the dress and how she is slowly starting to be excited about the event. Back in Milan, Kourtney and Travis along with their friends are having dinner. Kourtney mentions how they had an eventful day and adds how Travis gets overwhelmed when it comes to Kourtney’s schedules. ..

Kourtney’s friend jokes that her not being involved in the trial is so natural because she usually always is away from drama. In California, Kim is working out despite being able to fit into the dress because she is still watching her weight. She mentions how this seems to her like a movie role where actors lose and gain weight for a role and adds that Kim is playing Marilyn Monroe.

Khloe Kardashian and Kris Humphries are on a flight to New York City where they are joined by Kylie Jenner.

Khloe shares that the trial scares her because she has to trust the 12 jury members with her life. Kris mentions that nothing surprises her anymore. As they drive to NYC, Khloe mentions how she has gotten tired of Kris’ repetitive New York stories but humours her mother. In Milan, Kourtney and Travis are getting ready to fly back to New York.

The couple arrives in the states and tries on their MET Gala outfits with Thom Browne. The outfits the couple will be wearing come in pairs and Kourtney’s deconstructed outfit is completed by Travis’ complete suit. Kim is in her hotel room as she gets her hair bleached in order to get Marilyn Monroe to look down.

“I know it’s high stakes, but I need to be sure that I look my best for the MET,” Kim tells her hair team. “I’m bleaching my head when Kylie, Khloe and Kendall arrive at the same hotel. Kylie is trying on her dress in a different room and Kim joins the sisters and starts taking photos for Kylie.” The sisters talk about how the trial had been draining them out and Kim mentions that they should now focus on the MET to draw their minds away from the verdict.

The Episode Review

After the Blac Chyna trial, it seems that the narrative about the sisters being worried about the trial was very anti-climactic. We already know that the Kardashians won the trial and that all five sisters were going to be at the MET Gala. ..

It is understandable to show Kim’s weight loss journey in order to fit into the Marilyn Monroe dress but the rest of the MET Gala does not do much for the purpose of the show.

Fans of the Hulu original series KarJenner want to know more about the lives of the sisters, which are not being shared online. The show does not do a good job of portraying both sides of the story, leaving us with little to look forward to other than Kourtney’s wedding.

Episode 8 of “The Break with Michelle Wolf” aired on Sunday night and yet there is still no clip of comedian Pete Davidson. This has led some to believe that the entire show is nothing more than a ploy to get people to watch it for the promotional trailer, only to be let down once again. ..
