"THE HANDYMAN" recap!

Welcome to a Very Special Episode: Ma’s Hair Is Down & Everything Goes to Hell (almost!).

This week on Little House 50 Podcast, we dive headfirst into an episode that has it all: emotional turmoil, slow-burn temptation, passive-aggressive teenage angst, and… Ma’s hair down. Yes, DOWN. That’s when you know things are about to get spicy on the prairie.

Charles hops on a wagon and leaves for a job, so Caroline hires a handsome, mysteriously single handyman named Chris to finish the kitchen extension. He’s good with tools. Very good. Suspiciously good. Soon, he’s hammering more than nails—he’s hammering his way into Ma’s heart.

Mary, ever the emotionally intelligent eldest child, smells drama from a mile away and starts throwing shade with the precision of a seasoned Real Housewife of Sleepy Eye. Honestly? She’s kind of a bitch in this episode—but like, a justified bitch. We support her.

Meanwhile, Laura is blissfully unaware that her family is one flirty barn-raising away from a full-blown scandal.

And then there’s Ma. Sweet, proper, dutiful Ma—until suddenly, she’s got her hair down and a suspiciously candlelit glow in the kitchen. You don’t let your hair down in Walnut Grove unless you’re catching feelings or catching trouble.

And honestly, if anyone earned the right to slap Nellie into next Tuesday, it’s Mary in this episode.

Will Laura keep calling him “Uncle Chris,” even though he is giving major stranger danger with a toolbox energy?! Girl.

Will Ma go there?? (She won’t... but we all kinda wanted her to for a second.)

Grab your bonnet and your prairie popcorn—this episode is pure frontier soap opera.
Let’s get into it.
