“When they called it 'Kylie getting out of everything' I assumed they were going to a business meeting or something. Then they turn up to a nice chalet?” one confused viewer wrote.

This week’s episode of The Kardashians featured a pretty dramatic moment where emotional Kylie Jenner pleaded to get off the family’s private jet because she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.

For context, Kylie was joining her sisters Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and their mom, Kris Jenner, for a family trip to Aspen, Colorado, when the panic set in. 


“I’m very excited, I’ve been wanting to go to Aspen this year,” Kylie enthusiastically said in a confessional beforehand. “I’m just feeling blessed to be around family.”


However, when their flight was delayed on the ground due to low visibility at their destination airport, Kylie started to get anxious.

“I’ve been having a really bad feeling for the last two days, even last night,” she told the others, outraging Kendall, who snapped: “Why would you say that?! The fact that you even put that out in the universe is one of the weirdest things!”

But Kylie doubled down, saying that she couldn’t sleep because of this bad feeling, and didn’t “like this series of events.” She tearfully repeated: "I'm just having a lot of anxiety."


As the plane finally started to taxi, she decided that she wanted to get off — so Kris asked the captain to return to the terminal so that Kylie could disembark the aircraft.

However, the sisters’ reaction to Kylie bailing on the trip at the last minute has raised eyebrows, with some viewers claiming that it is proof the KarJenners view spending time together as a “chore” for their TV show.

Claiming that this was a “pattern” of Kylie’s, unimpressed Kendall said: “I think she just thinks she can get away with whatever.”


Kim added: “It’s always like this, it’s always fucking like this,” to which Kendall replied: “The fact that she always gets out of this shit is very fucking annoying.”


And they were still fuming when they were in the car from the airport in Colorado to their luxury accommodation, with Kim saying: “I really can’t believe Kylie manages to get out of everything.”


“She always does,” Khloé matter-of-factly agreed.

Over dinner, the sisters also pointed out that if Kylie genuinely felt unsafe on the plane, she wouldn’t have left her family on board.

Clearly unamused, Khloé asked: “She’s going to leave [her] whole family and let them die?”


“If you feel that unsafe you’ll beg and plead and cry for your family to get off the plane,” Kim agreed.

Many watching at home were confused as to why the family viewed Kylie not joining a lavish vacation as her getting out of something, with one person writing on a Reddit forum: “Why are they calling it ‘get out of everything’ basically admitting the trip is a chore just for the show💀 they don’t even try to pretend anymore.”

“right? I zoned out for a second and when they called it 'Kylie getting out of everything' I assumed they were going to a business meeting or something. Then they turn up to a nice chalet?” another confused viewer replied.


“I thought that too!!” somebody else wrote. “Why were they implying she’s so lucky she gets outta everything?”


And others theorized that this has been a theme for a while on The Kardashians, with one user writing: “All of their ‘vacations’ on recent seasons have just been work trips. they show up, film whatever was agreed upon prior, then clock out. they don’t show or share anything of substance. ofc this was also a work trip.”


“The trip they went on when khloe was scared of the whales (I think Mexico?) was VERY much giving ‘this could’ve been an email,’” somebody else claimed. “They didn’t look like they were enjoying themselves at all and they didn’t film anything interesting.”

While Kylie ruffled feathers by not going on the trip, Kourtney Kardashian Barker was understandably absent, having just given birth to her son Rocky two months prior.

In a candid conversation with Kris, Kourtney revealed that her husband, Travis Barker, wasn’t comfortable with her and Rocky flying for the first time without him present, with Travis famously surviving a fatal plane crash in 2008.

The Kardashians can be streamed on Hulu in the US and Disney+ internationally.
