Keeping Up with the Kardashians Recap: The Kourtney Konundrum

Last night on Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 13 Episode 12, Kourtney Kardashian talked candidly about life after Scott Disick.


And while one would expect it would be nothing but peaches, cream and freedom, the reality star admitted that it’s been challenging at times, for reasons we never really contemplated before.


Oh, and Korutney also dressed up like a firefighter.


Allow us to explain…



The main topic on an installment aptly titled “Decisions, Decisions” centered on how terrible Kourtney has become at making any sort of choice now that she’s a single woman.


Case in point:


The episode opened with Kourtney taking Kim up on an invite to New York Fashion Week.


But she then called Kim at the literal last minute (the latter was already on board her private jet) to change her mind, telling her sister that she decided to stay home instead.


This caused Kim to get angry (“You need, like, serious therapy. Who would do a full fitting and … not go?” she yelled over the phone) and for Kourtney to be honest about herself.


“I know I’m indecisive. It’s debilitating,” she told Khloe when the siblings sat down for lunch.



Vented Khloe to mother Kris Jenner later on:


“Kourt doesn’t get how her lack of decision-making affects other people.”


How to solve this problem?


After playing a series of pranks on her oldest sister, Khloe (totally on her own, we’re sure, and totally not told to do so by producers) decided it was time to take things to the a new, unique, different sort of level.


She took Kourtney to a local fire station and, along with a bunch of firefighters, tasked her indecisive sister with saving Kris from a fake fire.


Because of course, right? That’s the obvious solution to this sort of problem, isn’t it?



Kourtney ultimate failed in this pretend mission, but did come to a realization while speaking to her sisters.


“I feel like Scott and I were very co-dependent and I just would always bounce every idea off of him,” she said, adding:


“Also, I’m just living a different life now where doing more for myself is an option and now that I am able to make my own decisions, I want to make the best decisions.


“Tony Robbins taught me to make decisions from the heart and not from your head … I want to start listening.”


We’ll be curious to see if this lasts.


And curious to see what ridiculous idea Khloe comes up with next week for a member of her family.



ELSEWHERE on Sunday night, Rob Kardashian struggled with maintaining a civil relationship with Blac Chyna.


If you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online, you know that when it comes to this overweight relative, it is literally always something.


His mom and sisters never know what to do. Help out a family member who’s clearly struggling, or institute a little tough love? (Or a lot.)


In this case, Kim said she supported Rob and Chyna having broken up because it’s “the best path” for the ex-lovers, despite both wanting to raise a happy and healthy daughter.


Rob went to see Chyna during a photoshoot at one point, after not seeing her for quite some time, admitting to the camera that he was “nervous” about the encounter.


“Chyna is acting super weird to me,” he said shortly after getting a cold shoulder from his baby mama.


“There is so much awkward tension between Chyna and I. I don’t know how to act around her.”



But at least the relationship has helped Rob grow close again to his mother.


Following this failed attempt to reconnect with Chyna, Rob went home and talked to Kris about his hopes for both his future and, more importantly, the future of his daughter.


“Everything is fine. I’m trying to be peaceful,” he said. “We just communicate really poorly. It’s all dumb. Fights … I want to have the type of relationship that you and my dad had…


“It would just kill me if we didn’t have that friendship for Dream.”


Finally… Kanye West made a rare appearance on the show!



Despite the aforementioned snub from Kourtney, Kim still jetted to New York City and attended her husband’s fashion show, sitting next to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour in the front row.


Kim also gushed about the rapper’s collection, saying:


“Kanye came up with this amazing idea where the models are seen inside of this giant cube.”


Sure. Absolutely. That sounds totally amazing. We guess.


The star also seemed to glow with pride while watching the group of fashion models walk by in oversize hoodies and coats.


Confused about what the heck this looked like and why it served as evidence of Kanye’s genius?
