Sister Wives: How did the Coyote Pass sale go through? Details explored

The November 16, 2025 episode of Sister Wives felt like the mother of all family stand offs. Everyone showed up at Coyote Pass for one last official gathering before the land finally went up for sale, but the vibe was icy enough to freeze the whole property. Kody, Robyn, Meri, and Janelle all pulled in, parked, and then stayed put. Instead of talking, they sat in separate cars like teenagers avoiding each other after a terrible group project.

Sister Wives' Meri and Janelle camped out in their vehicles on purpose, and Robyn immediately decided it was some kind of emotional sneak attack. Meanwhile, the real estate agent was probably wondering how this turned into a parking lot showdown. What should’ve been a quick, boring land sale moment turned into a full on symbol of how split everyone is now with lots of silence, lots of staring, and everyone pretending the cold air was the only thing making them uncomfortable.

Sister Wives: What happened when the family arrived at Coyote Pass?

Sister Wives' Meri was the first to reach Coyote Pass, finding Janelle already parked and waiting outside her vehicle. In her confessional, Meri acknowledged uncertainty about what would unfold beyond knowing everyone would be present along with the real estate agent. The two women exchanged simple greetings. Janelle immediately expressed relief that the property was finally being sold after such a prolonged struggle. Her tone carried both exhaustion and satisfaction.

In her Sister Wives confessional, Janelle reflected on the fight it took to reach this point. She believed that without her persistence and Meri's determination, they'd still be waiting while Kody assumed he could sell whenever he wanted and take what he felt entitled to. Janelle credited their combined efforts with securing some financial stability. She admitted the investment ultimately saved them, giving both women at least a small piece of the financial outcome they deserved.

Meri acknowledged something surprising: she and Janelle were never close friends. However, she appreciated having Janelle as an ally during the property battle. Knowing someone else was fighting the same fight provided comfort. The weather turned cold and windy while Kody and Robyn had yet to arrive. Janelle suggested retreating to her car to wait. Meri agreed, and both women returned to their vehicles.

When Kody and Robyn finally pulled up, they immediately noticed Meri and Janelle sitting in separate cars. Robyn took this as a clear message that the women had no interest in interacting with them before absolutely necessary. Inside her car, Janelle's anxiety escalated. She grew increasingly nervous and panicky, admitting she didn't understand what they were waiting for. All she wanted was to return to her hotel, change into comfortable clothes, and watch television.

Meri attempted to lighten the mood with humor, joking about saying prayers. She then genuinely prayed for peace as they prepared to face their former husband on Sister Wives.

What is Kody’s perspective?

Watching from his car, Kody felt uncomfortable seeing nobody emerging from their vehicles. He explained they were waiting for the real estate agent because there was no natural desire to meet Meri and Janelle at Coyote Pass after everything that had happened.

He mentioned communicating with Meri through lawyers for months, expressing frustration about never understanding what the final outcome would be.

Janelle summed up the bizarre scene perfectly, calling it "a standoff at the Coyote Pass final showdown." The description captured the absurdity and sadness of four people who once shared a life now unable to simply stand together in the cold. The sale would proceed on Sister Wives, but the emotional distance proved far greater than the physical space between their cars.
