On Kourtney, Kim and Khloe Take Palm Springs aka Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 13 Episode 11, the sisters try to reconnect after a failed family vacation to Costa Rica.
The episode opens with Scott and Kourtney's daughter, Penelope, in ice skating lessons. She's honestly so adorable, and it's refreshing to see the Kardashian kids do normal activities.
(It was a private lesson, but still.)
And Caitlyn thought she was going to be the only Olympic person in this family.
Scott
At lunch with Kourtney and Kim, Kris points out that it feels weird in LA without Khloe because she's spending all of her time in Cleveland with her boyfriend Tristan Thompson. Kourtney and Kim still feel bad about fighting with Khloe on the last family vacay, so they think it's time to try for round two.
And because it's obvious they have no desire to go to Cleveland (who could blame them), they decide to have a sister weekend in Palm Springs.
Khloe reluctantly agrees, but you can tell she would rather hideaway from her crazy sisters in Ohio.
Back at the house, Kris gets papers in the mail requesting her to be someone's egg donor.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is one of the most ridiculous storylines in KUWTK history. It's right up there with the time Kris thought she could still get pregnant a few seasons back.
She's 61... I don't think she has any eggs.
Kourtney
Speaking of babies, Rob stops by with Dream and opens up about his relationship with Chyna. They're still not getting along, but Rob refuses to give up on her and his dream (see what I did there?) of having a family.
And if you dream it (again!), you can achieve it.
Unless you're Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna because there is a 0% chance that relationship is going to work out.
Kim, Kourtney and Khloe head to Palm Springs, and in an effort to be discrete and relatable, Kourtney drives them in a rented car.
If I was as rich as the Kardashians, I would never drive a car again.
It turns out that they used to go to Palm Springs a lot as kids, and their parents never let them stop at a dinosaur exhibit on the way. They finally get their chance, and naturally it's time for a photoshoot.
Kourtney and I used to go the Large Marge monologue all of the time.
Kim
Meanwhile, Kris recommends that Rob sees a life coach to help him with his issues. Kris seems super into this particular life coach, and I have a feeling she might be pitching another show. Or at least giving him a guest spot on Revenge Body.
The life coach seems to be giving Rob good advice, but I'm too distracted by his nose piercing to really pay attention to anything he is saying.
Kourtney rents a vintage car to take her sisters shopping in, and it's clear from the beginning that she doesn't know how to drive it. The car breaks down in a matter of minutes, and Khloe and Kim have to get out to push the car.
Kim is more concerned about people taking pictures of them and the paparazzi finding out they're in Palm Springs than the car, and I'm honestly shocked they didn't just abandon the car and Uber back to their room.
Kris' BFF Faye Resnick (yes, the morally corrupt Faye Resnick) comes over to hear about the people who want to purchase Kris' eggs.
Sidenote: Do you think it's in Faye's contract to be credited as a designer every time she appears on KUWTK and RHOBH? We get it Faye, you pick out wallpaper for your friends.
Kris is seriously "considering" giving her eggs to the "royal" family that requested them. I think she's forgetting she already has someone royal in her family.
In Palm Springs, Khloe thinks that Kourtney and Kim are ignoring her in the store, so she starts to talk to Rob's imaginary friend Cornelius (apparently Cornelius frequents Palm Springs).
Instead of having an episode where Khloe talks to herself, the Kardashians should have aired a rerun tonight.
Speaking of reruns, Rob's storyline of "taking charge of his life" feels like it started six seasons ago. Iwonder if Kris has had a Men's Health or GQ cover ready to go for whenever Rob gets in shape again since 2010.
The sisters continue to bond in Palm Springs by playing Head's Up and jumping on the bed.
Stars: they're just like us!
(Except when they play Head's Up their clues are personal like "you went on a date with him to a movie theater!" The answer was Nick Lachey, by the way.)
Obviously Khlo$ has to bring the party.
Khloe
Before they head back to LA, Kourtney, Kim and Khloe go to their grandparent's old house. They knock on the door, the new owner lets them in.
Could you imagine how funny it would be if he slammed the door in their faces and said he hated the Kardashians? I mean, they had like a 50/50 shot of that happening.
On a more positive note, it is cool to see the house now and then the house in their home videos.
Overall, it was a pretty uneventful trip as far as Kardashian vacations go.
Before the episode ends, Kris has to wrap up her ridiculous egg donor storyline. She tells Kim and Kourtney that she went to see their OBGYN to find out if she could ever make eggs again.
That ship has definitely sailed, and it's in the fucking Bermuda triangle down at the bottom of the ocean.
Kim
She can't (shocker!) and admits she let the "silliness" get the best of her.
Never change Kris, never change.
