Welcome to Plathville Season 4 returned for another tense episode on Tuesday night. Over the past few weeks, the Plath family has undergone some massive changes, and while most kids haven't said much about Kim and Barry's split, Amber didn't shy away from telling Kim exactly what she had in mind.

Titled I Was Born in the Dining Room, this week the girls went to Kim's rental place for a sleepover. After Kim shared why she decided to leave Barry, Amber questioned her about asking Barry to move out. She said,

"I know dad's willing to move, because he'll do it for you, but it seems like if you're the one that wants to break it up, and you're the one that doesn't want to stay, then shouldn't you be the one to move?"

Kim didn't expect this question from Amber and was taken aback. But fans who watched the episode applauded the young Welcome to Plathville star for calling out her mother's actions.

What happened this week on Welcome to Plathville Season 4, Episode 5?

While Kim was shocked by Amber's comments, she also said that according to her, the one who was taking care of the kids was the one that needed to stay at their family home, thereby justifying her decision.

During her confessional, Kim shared,

"I feel like she blames me. Which to some extent, yes it is me. Because I'm the one that wants to leave. But it's also Barry, because he's the reason I wanna leave. So how can one blame the other? And we're both at fault."

Kim then told Amber that even though she had been doing other things lately, she was more flexible compared to Barry, who worked a full-time job.

Ethan, on the other hand, found himself in hot soup with Olivia. The Welcome to Plathville star finally told his wife about his car, which had been a secret for eight months. Even though he expected his wife to be glad, she was furious that he hid this from her, and walked away from the scene.

Olivia and Moriah decided to go on a road trip to Miami, Florida, to get some air and some time to think. Olivia told Moriah that when she found out about the car, she wanted to kill Ethan, and had therefore left the place.


Welcome to Plathville airs every Tuesday night at 10 pm ET on TLC. Readers can check their local listings for more information.
