Kris is such a snake.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 14 Episode 11 is a step backward for the show as they've been attempting to keep it socially-charged with stories about Planned Parenthood, homelessness, and gun violence, but it's a delight nonetheless.

While it's disappointing to see an episode again not address anything hugely important in their lives, it's a requirement that we're tuned in for the Kardashian-Jenner high jinks as well.
Khloe, Kim, and Kris' shared time in this episode delivered an excellent plot twist, changing the ending quite like any dramatic television show would.
It's funny to see the girls compete to be Kris' favorite (when we all know her favorite is whoever is bringing in the cash), but they go to such extremes to do so. Khloe's pantry organization task is classic "KhlOCD," while Kim sneaking in with a cake is exactly what I expected from her.

Khloe
I didn't expect for Kris to be lying about what Kylie's done for her, like buying her a toaster or getting her a massage, but it was an incredible twist and Khloe, and Kim handled it quite well.
These girls are usually so awful to their mother most of the time, aside from when they need something or it's convenient, but when they're all getting along and playing pranks on one another, it's fun to see the lightheartedness of their relationships.
Especially on a series thriving on the drama in their lives, Keeping Up with the Kardashians excels at capturing the good moments with the bad, which reality television so often forgets to showcase in various shows.
I really enjoy the relationship between Kim and Khloe because they seem to be the closest out of the entire family, or at least the most similar to one another. Just like Kylie and Kendall have each other, Kim and Khloe are side-by-side every time it counts.
Any future spin-offs for Keeping Up with the Kardashians should be focused on Khloe and Kim if they're only focusing on two of them.
Khloe: You’ve never been to one of my Good American meetings.
Kim: You never come to my makeup meetings.
As someone who used to admire Kourtney's sense of normalcy in her family and thought she was the best of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, I have to say as the season continues, I like Kourtney less and less.
It's tiring to see her getting angry with her family for trying to get her to interact like a normal human being, and she screams at them so often for no reason at all.
Not only that, but Kourtney has become so wrapped up in her fame that she's ignorant and conceded, and it's just tiresome to see the same themes continuing every week.
Someone needs to call Kourt out on her shit because it has to stop. She has so much power coming from her family, yet she doesn't use it. She could be like Kim and use her power to bring attention to good causes, but no.
She's too busy not paying attention to the news or anything else in the world and keeping her income flowing in with her app and new fashion line.
Kim: You're teaching us bribing, lying, scamming...
Kris: They're life lessons.
The story with Kourtney's boyfriend is just incredibly boring because it was all about getting her to admit his name and that he's her boyfriend, and only one half of that happened. Sure, now we know her boyfriend's name after months of the paparazzi following them.
But they didn't say it on the show, and that's literally what Khloe was trying to do the entire time.
Plus, Kourtney seems more aware and concerned about exposing her boyfriend's name on the show than she does about her children being in every episode and showcased sometimes?
For someone who spends all of her energy on her kids, she isn't doing much to keep them out of the spotlight and keep the chatter away from them, especially with what is going on in Scott's life over these last few years.
They're under more scrutiny than ever because Scott is, and he's their father, so by default they're of importance to his story. Kourtney's kids show up much more often than Kim's do before anyone mentions that.
Kim's pregnant (via surrogacy)! It's exciting news for the mom-to-be, which was already announced and is now several months in, but nonetheless, Kim is obviously excited about it.
I'm sure for women who can't get pregnant at all or again, like Kim cannot, it provides a sense of hope to see Kim having another child when the doctors told her it was impossible. Also, while I'm here, let's mention the fact that, instead of bringing another child into the world, why don't more people look into adoption?
