Danielle Busby Hesitates to Put Daughter Blayke in Charge of the Quints and Worries About Her Unanswered Phone Call While Out

Adam suggested that Blayke’s two cousins — who are closer in age to her — could come over and help watch the quints, plus the younger cousins, while the parents went out for Ashley and Crystal’s birthday.

“Ten kids coming over to the house and they’re all gonna party while we’re not here,” his wife responded with a tired laugh.

“If my cousins are up for it,” Blayke eventually agreed, “then yeah, I wanna do it.”

Later in the episode, Danielle, Adam, the aunts and the uncles laid out some ground rules before heading out for the evening: no going outside, and Blayke and older cousins Lily and McKenzie would be in charge. They added half-jokingly, “Don’t call unless there’s blood, throw up or a fire.”

“I don’t know what’s gonna happen,” Danielle said nervously. “We’ve done what we could, we’ve said all we can and now we have to let [the kids] have the reins and show us that they can do this.”

While the parents were out, Blayke, the quints, and the cousins ate dinner, played and focused on putting together a special birthday surprise for Ashley and Crystal. They decided to make a funny poster and put on a talent show with songs to “roast” them.

Toward the end of the birthday dinner, Danielle decided to give Blayke a call and check in on everyone. But when there was no answer, she immediately began to worry. The parents decided to call it a night and head home to make sure everything was OK.

When the adults got home, they were greeted with total silence, which instantly set off alarm bells for Adam. “Any time that you get home and it’s like, dead silent, it’s usually a bad sign,” he said.

Luckily, they had no reason to worry after all. The kids popped out and surprised them with their birthday talent show.

At the end of the episode, Danielle and Adam got the quints ready for bed and retired for the evening, relieved everything went okay after all.

“This evening’s been a blast,” she said. “But I’mexhausted.”
