We're diving into the dramatic start of Big Love Season 3, and tensions are running high. Roman Grant's trial is shaking up the community, and Nikki's desperation for her father's approval leads her to betray other women. Barb faces a frightening cancer scare, Margie struggles with the loss of her mother, and despite it all, Bill is still determined to court Ana as a fourth wife. The weight of polygamy is becoming impossible to ignore — even Bill starts questioning if he's a good man for living the principle. Join us as we break down all the drama, heartbreak, and tough questions in this intense season opener!
