Breaking Amish Recap: Avoiding Scandal 101: Confuse the Sh*t Out of Your Viewers


By Sugarbush | | 2:53 pm | 20 Comments

The Amish Meatballs run back in to ride the mechanical bull in an empty restaurant.  Afterwards, Jeremiah heads to the girls’ room to apologize for being ugly to them, but they’re way too gone to understand.  Kate realizes that Jeremiah only said that to keep open his chances of getting into Sabrina’s pants. 

More horror movie shots as Sabrina tells us that Kate woke her in the wee hours of the morning with a flip camera in her face talking about monsters and having conniptions on the bed.  Kate, though, tells us that Jeremiah and Sabrina are fascinated with witchcraft.  Well, that explains why she’s named “Sabrina”. As Kate interviews about the creepy dealings with Sabrina and Jeremiah, the producers question her about her weird behavior during the night.  Kate feigns ignorance and says their revelations are scaring her. 

She’s either possessed or she’s playing air banjo.

Sabrina and Jeremiah get together to move Kate into the boys’ room and the boys in with Sabrina and Rebecca.  Jeremiah asks Sabrina if she remembers getting wasted the night before.  He says she chugged a mug of booze then fell face down on the bed snoring.  Then, Kate started to tear up laughing and said that Sabrina would be out for a while.  Kate apparently refused to drink anything of which Sabrina was partaking, so they believe she put the voodoo into her glass.

Abe and Rebecca come home to discover that they are now supposed to fear Kate.  Kate cries to the producers that she doesn’t have a clue what they’re talking about.  Kate comes home to find everyone in her room.  The first thing she wants to do is have a one-on-one with Sabrina to figure out what happened the night before.  Kate starts to flip out on Jeremiah so badly that they have to use subtitles.  Rebecca tries to keep her distance from this whole scene, which is right where I would be if I were her.  This all stinks to high heaven.  Kate books it for the stairwell in hopes of losing the camera guys, who film it all in a Blair Witch Project manner.  

I don’t know about anyone else, but this episode confused the living shit out of me.  I’m not completely sure what happened.  I don’t know if it was poor editing or clever editing.  Either way, my mind is blown.

Next week, Sabrina meets her dad, Abe talks to Momma about proposal, and Rebecca and Abe think Jeremiah and Sabrina are playing Kate.

This is turning out to be like Amish Jersey Shore, except there’s more raunchiness and excitement on this show than the current season of Jersey Shore.  What a snoozefest what with them getting all mature (for them) on us! 

Until next week, my loves!

Hi, there!  About me...well, let's see.  I like to think of myself as an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in a mystery.  Sometimes my personality doesn't even reconcile in my own head.  I'm a really caring and sensitive person, but I have a dark, dry, sarcastic sense of humor which tends gives the impression that I have no soul.  I am married to a great guy who shares my sense of humor and we have a son who, both fortunately and unfortunately, has his mother's personality.   I'm an independent contractor who works from home and keeps the kid all day, everyday.  I've loved to write my whole life and have big, never-to-be-achieved dreams of one day writing a book.  My favorite past time is laughing, which is what brought me to this site.  I can laugh at almost anything, so beware.

    All the news stories coming out about Jeremiah keep getting worse and worse. To where you have to wonder how the ins co would even let TLC put him on the show.

    Ok, I thought my glass of Chardonnay had gone to my head and that’s why I had NO IDEA WHAT I WAS WATCHING!!! Seriously, WTF was with this episode? If you look back to how this show was heavily promoted by TLC and then watch this episode you would think you were watching the wrong show. Even with all the lies being exposed I was still interested in it but I feel like whatever Kate allegedly slipped into Sabrina’s drink somehow made its way into mine! Huh???

    It was very WTF.
    I felt sorry for Kate though, in the confessional when they told her about what she’d supposedly done in the middle of the night. I mean, she seemed to be really crying.

    And why do they make them wear their Amish clothes in the confessionals, when they’re not wearing them at all at this point?

    i hate the museum of sex and all the idiots who go there. it’s always people being immature assholes. i had to walk by it all the time when i was in college a few blocks away (same damn street) and it just .. annoys me.

    as someone who has been anorexic for over a decade (closer to two, ugh), i was annoyed at the attacks as well. anorexia isn’t some attention-whore game people like to imply it is; it’s freakin’ disease. and eating disorders are often comorbid with substance abuse. she needs professional help, especially if she’s just entered the first stages of anorexia (which it sounded like) — it’s MUCH easier to cure in early stages (thus why i am chronic; it took over 10 years for me to get any kind of treatment, and developed in childhood) … she would actually have a pretty good chance right now. er, assuming it’s not for show, anyway.

    also, if it’s not for sure, could she suffer from some bizarrely quickly cycling bipolar disorder? since i’m sure these episodes film over the course of at least a week, it’s possible.

    you CAN buy an engagement ring for under $300 — it’s just not going to be amazing. but i think it’s worse to buy a $10,000 ring you can’t afford than to buy something very modest that won’t put you in debt that you’ll then just share with your wife-to-be. sounds logical. i didn’t quite see what the signage was, but at independent jewelers in nyc, you can DEFINITELY haggle, especially because the diamond district just means 29094739 stores in competition.

    i also didn’t understand why the hell anyone would want to meet their allegedly drug addict parents who threw them in the trash. i mean, really? you’re probably better off. i’m also a fervid adoption proponent (would like to adopt myself, even though i am capable of getting pregnant despite all the abuse i’ve put myself through), and i think it’s kind-of insulting that she needs to seek out these baby-trashing people when someone else brought her in and brought her up without, uh, throwing her in the trash. unless she had horrible adoptive parents, i guess, but there’s never been any mention of that.

    I’m wondering if production was on something when they pieced together this episode. Why would TLC let it air being so disjointed?

    I’m so relieved to know that I’m not the only one who thought this was like Frankenepisode. I still don’t really know how the hell we got from Point A to Point SLDK3L9DJLK3.

    I really want to see how/if TLC is going to address all of the stories that have come out in regarding to this cast. And don’t they do some research before making their picks? I would think they could have found some people who had way fewer skeletons in their closet.

    And despite the completely fabricated nature of this show, I still find myself watching!

    @Begonia – I thought the same thing, but then I realized that there’s no way I’d be able to do that weird back-bend/crab crawl thing. I get winded when I get up off the couch once every four hours.

    @ConfusedinCanada There’s a mess of them. Here’s a paste from 1 it seems like a lot of them link back to. (Stutzman’s his ex wife’s last name)

    In a phone conversation right before Stutzman says TLC offered her $10,000 to stay quiet, she told CBS 21, “I’ve been in the hospital multiple times from this man. He was physically abusive. I have the police reports”

    Stutzman cut off contact with us before sending those police reports. So we found them on our own, including a mug shot from a 2005 arrest for domestic abuse against Stutzman..

    Jeremiah appears in at least 17 police reports; eight for domestic violence.

    The reports say Jeremiah would become enraged, grabbing Stutzman and throwing her down. When she’d tried to get up, he would push her back down. One report stats he hit her in the stomach, while she was pregnant and said if she leaves him she will, “not have his baby.”
    CBS 21

    Starcasm says

    (Stutzman later spoke with Star magazine, so I wonder if the offer was from them and not TLC. Of course, she said nothing about Jeremiah’s criminal past and history with domestic violence, which would seem to be the only information she had worth that sort of money.)

    I’m guessing there’ll be some more coming out before long.

    So wait, who was watching their kid while they filmed?

    I know calling bullshit on this show’s like calling curly fur on a poodle dog.

    But I bet TLC made up that whole witchcraft story line because the girl’s Amish hats reminded 1 of the producers of their costume when their high school drama class did The Crucible.

    If they don’t even know anorexia’s a sickness I doubt they know the vocabulary word of telekinesis. Much less sit around having conversations about it.

    The Amish at the sex museum part needs to get the Emmy award for stupidest scene in a semi scripted fake reality show.

    To me it sounded like Abe said he got “blow in the dark condoms.” Even playing it back 3 or 4 times. I think he meant “glow in the dark.” But you never know.

    Then his next line was this:

    I figure I’m going to have to wrap that stump before I hump so I might as well make it look good

    Idk why I keep watching this show! I’m secretly hoping a producer will jump out and say ‘hahahaha!! Just kiddin Ya’ll!!’ this episode made little to no sense, to say the least. They should’ve named it After leaving the Amish these Fools are still Fools… What a trainwreck!

    I am so confused by this show. I mean it is so obviously fake, and there are so many holes in the story lines that I just don’t understand why the producers would air the show. Did they know about all the arrests, marriages/divorces, babies etc…? But I will keep watching it because I feel like at any moment Ashton Kutcher is going to come out and its going to be just one big long episode of Punk’d lol.

    What confused me is that they said that Sabrina’s mom died surrounded by pictures of Sabrina, right? So unless after throwing their baby in the dumpster they did a “Baby in Trash” photo-op then where did she get all those pictures of her? I mean, if they truly were sociopaths and really did leave a live child in the dumpster they would not know where she ended up, what she was named, etc, etc so how did they “track” her to get all the pics for the “Death-bed Mosaic”? And I didn’t even watch this episode, but now I will have to catch it on Demand, you’ve all made it too tempting to pass up. Weird to say the least.
