During season 7, episode 4 of Outdaughtered, titled "Quints In Quarantine," tension continues to build as the Busby family adjusts to a life in lockdown due to COVID-19. With six children, including quintuplets, and a busy household, the family must find ways to keep themselves entertained, continue with schooling, and spend time together 24/7.
As the episode opens, the family is already several weeks into their quarantine, and the pressure is beginning to take its toll. Danielle and Adam both struggle to find time for themselves while managing the household, including cooking, cleaning, and keeping the children engaged. Meanwhile, the quints are becoming increasingly restless, with limited activities and social interaction now available.
Throughout "Quints In Quarantine," viewers will see the family tackle a variety of challenges unique to their situation. For instance, when school closures leave the older Busby children without their usual classes, Danielle must try to keep them on track while juggling the needs of the quints.
In the midst of all this, the family is also dealing with worries about the virus itself. With Danielle working in healthcare and Adam still employed outside the home, the family is hyper-aware of the risks that come with exposure. This fear is compounded when one of the family members begins to exhibit symptoms of COVID-19, leaving them all worrying over the possibility of infection.
Despite the many challenges, the Busby family continues to stay positive and focus on spending time together. At one point in the episode, Adam and Danielle plan a "family date" night, complete with a fun movie, snacks, and a tent set up in the living room. As always, the quintuplets are front and center, offering plenty of laughs and mischief throughout the episode.
Ultimately, "Quints In Quarantine" will leave audiences feeling both touched by the family's unity and inspired by their resilience. Although life in quarantine is far from easy, the Busbys demonstrate that with love, a little creativity, and a lot of patience, anything is possible. So, the episode ends with a message of hope and to keep fighting against all the odds.
