In the meantime, Kyle and Amanda are househunting within the ‘burbs, however he doesn’t actually need to depart the town, and it’s placing a pressure on their already-struggling relationship. Listed below are a few of the highlights from Summer time Home Season 8, Episode 7.
These “miniature flags” are literally billboards
When final we left Summer time Home, Paige was questioning whether or not Lindsay and Carl needs to be getting married. “Are you constructive?” she requested. “In the event you’re not, it’s method simpler to name off or postpone a marriage than it’s to get divorced two months later.”
Whereas Lindsay admits she sees some “little, miniature flags” (she really means huge, big ones), however they’re not “pink sufficient” for her to cancel the marriage. How pink have they got to be, Lindsay?
“Perhaps it’s naïve of me,” she says. “however I don’t assume so … We’re each simply so prepared to work on it, which is half the battle.” However then there’s that different ugly half.
“I get that relationships are laborious work,” Paige interviews. “However sooner or later, punch out. I feel Lindsay deep down is aware of she shouldn’t marry this man. However I feel she needs this, like, fairytale … however that is actual life. You guys don’t like one another.”
In the meantime, the fellows are speaking to Carl in one other nook of the yard. “I’m slightly hesitant to offer my honest-to-goodness ideas on the state of affairs,” Kyle interviews. “[Carl] was nothing however supportive of me and Amanda via our trials and tribulations. However once I look again at that, in fact. Amanda didn’t do something incorrect. I used to be an fool, and he was being a supportive pal in serving to me attempt to notice what I had. It’s probably not an apples-to-apples state of affairs right here.”
“For the file,” Jesse tells Carl, “I really like you. I really like Lindsay … I simply need to just be sure you guys are gonna be good collectively. All of it comes from a very good place.”
Kyle’s within the marriage ceremony occasion as a … “flower boy?”
Kyle and Carl are sitting within the 1986 Indy 500 tempo automotive when Carl says, “Lindsay and I are getting married November 17. I actually need you to be part of our marriage ceremony.”
“I’d be honored,” Kyle responds.
“I might love so that you can be … a flower boy, for those who’re okay with it. We’ve obtained Andrea [Denver], Luke [Gulbranson], and also you as flower boys.” Is he severe? I believed he was going to ask Kyle to be his greatest man.
“You’ve got groomsmen?” Kyle asks. “However I’m not a groomsman?”
“Your position is gonna be the flower boy,” Carl repeats.
“Deciding on groomsmen has been slightly little bit of a course of,” Carl interviews. “Lindsay didn’t need Kyle to be a groomsman. Final 12 months … wasn’t nice, however I would like Kyle there. I additionally need to play ball with my [future] spouse.”
“It’s been a tricky couple of weeks,” Kyle says. “I’m right here for you guys … I really like you, and I really like Lindsay … Final summer season was by no means about our friendship. It was a few large adjustment.”
Carl’s simply glad they’ve moved previous “all of the bullsh*t” and are associates once more.
“However I’m not a groomsman?” Kyle asks once more.
“Flower boy,” Carl insists. That’s some bullsh*t, proper there. Is that this an April Idiot’s joke?
“Does this really feel like a little bit of a demotion,” Kyle asks in a confessional, “coming from one of the best man and officiant at my marriage ceremony? Yeah. However on the finish of the day, he wants my assist. I’m not gonna query something. I’ll be one of the best rattling flower boy he’s ever seen.”
Jesse breaks Bro Code
Again in NYC, West and Ciara meet up with Jesse and Danielle for drinks. After Danielle provides intimate particulars about her current hookup with a drummer from LA, Jesse feedback about West and Ciara, “They’re not having intercourse, so that you don’t must ask them.” Whoa! That was slightly private, Jesse.
“Are you f*cking kidding?” Ciara asks. “Asserting my enterprise?”
“When are you going to have intercourse with my pal?” Jesse flat-out needs to know.
“Actually by no means,” Ciara says, surprising everybody, particularly West.
“I don’t know if Bro Code is actual,” West interviews, “however for those who’re associates with Jesse Solomon, it’s not … I clearly instructed him we’re not hooking up, after which the very first thing he does is simply f*cking grill her. In a method, although, I used to be form of like, ‘Preserve it going! Preserve it going!’” West needs to know when/in the event that they’ll even have intercourse.
“Look,” Ciara says, “I’m not attempting to hurry into something. I form of like that we’re taking it gradual. We’ll have intercourse once I’m prepared.” When Danielle asks if West likes taking it gradual as effectively, he drawls, “Yeah … It seems like time’s actually slowing down.” All of them giggle at his response.
Paige weighs in
It’s Friday evening once more on the home, and Jesse and Paige are hanging out within the yard when Carl and Lindsay arrive. Jesse apologizes for not assembly Carl the evening earlier than, however he was in exercise garments and didn’t assume he’d slot in with all of Carl’s buddies. Lindsay says there have been 17 of them, so it was “principally a bachelor occasion.” Kyle and Andrea have been each there.
Jesse asks if Kyle is a groomsman, and Carl dodges the query with, “Kyle’s within the marriage ceremony occasion, yeah.”
“However he’s not a groomsman?” Jesse presses.
“His position is to be a flower boy,” Carl admits, which will get Paige’s consideration. “So is Andrea, and so is Luke.”
“Bought it,” Jesse responds.
“I do know that it appears like I’m sitting right here listening to this dialog,” Paige interviews. “I’m bursting inside. Carl officiated their marriage ceremony, they usually’re making him a flower boy? I’m wondering who made that call. ‘He’ll throw petals as I stroll down the aisle.’ That’s what [Lindsay] thought.”
“That’s insane,” she continues. “I wouldn’t even go. I might have slapped Carl in his face if he’d stated that to me. I’d be, like, have enjoyable at your marriage ceremony. See ya!” Thanks! I 100% agree. It’s insulting.
“Kyle’s extra of a flower boy, proper?” Carl says to Lindsay. “I feel it matches his character.” Wow. Good former BFF.
Later, Ciara and Paige are hanging out with Amanda. Paige asks, “Is Kyle mad that he’s a ‘flower woman?’”
“He was slightly confused,” Amanda admits.
“I imply, he’s 31!” Ciara giggles. “He’s gonna be strolling down the aisle with flowers in a basket.”
“He’s doing it with Andrea and Luke,” Amanda explains.
“Which is definitely much more insulting,” Paige says.
Kyle affords Carl a job
In the meantime, Kyle is displaying Carl the brand new Loverboy non-alcoholic drinks. “They’re very mild, however I feel you’ll discover them actually refreshing,” Kyle says. “It’s not like ingesting, like, a Snapple.”
“I simply obtained chills,” Carl says. “Dude, this appears actually good.”
“The most effective non-alc merchandise coming to market are from alcohol manufacturers,” Kyle interviews. “I form of put it on the market, … ‘Why don’t we begin growing it?’ … We lastly have samples, however I simply needed to do it with Carl. I needed to get again to a very good place. I needed him to be the primary individual to listen to about it, be the primary individual to style it, and see what we will work out.”
“That is thrilling!” Carl says.
“To not put you on the spot,” Kyle says, “however my thought is that this might form of be a aspect hustle if you need. You would principally assist promote these items, and we might create a rev-share primarily based on how concerned you need to get. I feel it’d be form of a cool approach to get again concerned, even simply part-time.”
“I adore it,” Carl agrees. “I’ll give it some thought.” Which means he has to speak to Lindsay, who most likely received’t need him having something to do with Kyle.
“You’ve got this non-alcoholic challenge,” Carl interviews. “It simply makes good sense. It’s … an enormous alternative. I’d be loopy not to have a look at this critically. However a part of my concern is … that Lindsay simply received’t be on board with it. We’re in a very good streak proper now, however bringing one thing like this to the desk might trigger her some extra points.” That’s actually a disgrace as a result of it’s an ideal alternative for him. Why would she be in opposition to that? Oh, yeah. As a result of she’s an insecure and self-centered.
Kyle and Amanda on the wrestle bus
Kyle and Amanda are househunting within the burbs. Amanda needs to get out of the town, and Kyle’s lastly agreed to start out wanting. She needs to start out a household, however she doesn’t need to do it in New York.

At dinner, Danielle asks how the search is coming.
“It could be an funding property,” Amanda responds, “so we’ll nonetheless maintain the condo … This could be someplace that I might get out of the town. [Kyle’s] not prepared to depart but, however typically I simply must take away myself from New York…”

“I really like our condo, although,” Kyle says sadly.
