Okay, look at the pic where the Bates family watches the wedding. Do you see the girl in the back with the black shirt? I've been seeing her in lots of episodes. Do you know who she is? Once the camera even zoomed in on her face. I think we should have an explanation about who she is. And is Carlin wearing a tank top in that one picture?
ReplyDeleteIsn't that their niece?
DeleteShe's wearing a wrap dress with a tank underneath it. I only know this because I have the same dress.
DeleteThe girl in the black shirt is a friend of the family, she hangs out with and goes to college with the girls!
DeleteWhy does it matter if she's wearing a tank top? She's still dressed modestly.
DeleteWhere did you get that dress? It's sooooooo cute!
DeleteYes Carlin is! I have seen her in a lots of episodes. do you think she likes trace?
ReplyDeleteI should hope she wouldn't be attracted to her own brother, cuz that would be kinda weird.

DeleteI think that girl is a friend of the Bates girls, especially Katie, Josie, Carlin and Tori. Am I right?

If that girl is just a friend, why would she go to a family wedding?
DeleteI noticed that girl too. I Think she was a friend of Nathan or Trace who visited before from New York.I think I saw her in the episode of 20th Bates.
ReplyDeleteI have also wondered the same thing about that girl.... who is she??????
ReplyDeleteWhy not just call her a "sister," rather than "adopted sister"?
ReplyDeleteI agree, it's unnecessary and offensive to label her the "adopted sister". It's irrelevant. She is Kelly's sister, whether blood related or otherwise. Very insensitive.
DeleteEverybody looks sooo happy in the pictures. Can't wait to see the next season.
ReplyDeleteHonk if you like tank tops in the summer heat!

DeleteSo many people forget what women had to wear in colonial times. Even in the summer. I live down in Texas and have survived every summer wearing sleeves and a modest skirt. Doesn't the Bible say that women should dress modestly?
ReplyDeleteIt does and that is exactly how Carlin is dressed.
DeleteCarlin wasn't dressed immodestly. Her dress was long enough she had a shirt underneath and sure her dresses sleeves where not full but they where thick they just were rolled up cause she had her arms up.
ReplyDeleteShe helps with the children.
