Season 4 of 'Welcome to Plathville' has seen the Plath family go through some serious changes. From being overtly religious to the older Plath kids setting out on their path, the dynamics within the family have changed a lot since Season 1. And right now, it all boils down to Kim.

Kim's transformation this season has been really something else. From once shaming Moriah over her clothes to now wearing short skirts herself, a lot seems to have gone done in Kim's life. And it all began when she started gyming and taking care of herself.

Speaking of the gym, Kim had one of her friends from the gym, Nigel, show up and cook for the family. Nigel is from Jamacia and the two of them became instant friends while at the gym. Seeing that Kim often talked about Nigel, she decided to invite him to their home, where he was going to cook a meal for the family. In his confessionals, Barry opened up about how he was not a jealous person, but he felt as though it was time to wear his heart on his sleeve. Kim also spoke about how she wasn't trying to make Barry jealous but toyed with the idea of pushing him ever so slightly.

Fans didn't know what to make of this messy storyline. "Kim smiling like a giddy little school girl. #welcometoplathville" tweeted a fan. "Kim bringing her side dish over to make dinner for Barry… #welcometoplathville" added a fan. "Kim done brought this man to cook jerk chicken Y’all see that hug he wanted to give her….. hon-tay this too much…#WelcomeToPlathville" said another. "I knew it. I knew I knew it. Some black dude jumped in Kim's DM. Winked at her.Told her she fine now she redy to go. #WelcomeToPlathville" wrote a fan. "not Kim obtaining a Jamaican chocolate drop #welcometoplathville" said another.
