Scott & Khloe Shouldn't Be Friends Right Now

by Christine DiStasio

As a Kardashian fan, it's entirely your job to be concerned about the wellbeing of Scott Disick. Mostly because you realize how great Kourtney is, but also because he's Scott Disick and he needs your attention. And, what the Lord demands, the Lord shall receive. So far on this season of Kourtney & Khloe Take the Hamptons , Scott's family history and the deaths of his parents have made it really difficult for him to cope with spending the summer on the beach with his family. Which — I know — sounds absurd, but what's more absurd is how Scott and Khloe Kardashian's friendship, while hilarious, is the worst possible thing for him right now.

Obviously I'm referring to Khloe going completely against Kourtney's wishes and giving Scott every opportunity to run to Manhattan to party. I'm also referring to the fact that Khloe's banded together with Scott to make Kourtney seem like a raging lunatic. (The tennis ball thing was a little much, but not entirely undeserved.) What works for Khloe in her attempts to get over the tragedy of her marriage to Lamar Odom, doesn't work for Scott and it definitely doesn't work for her sister. Which, you'd think, after all of the years Khloe spent telling Kourtney to break up with Scott, she wouldn't be turning him into a legitimate monster.

No offense to Khloe, because the girl needs to do what she's got to do, but her newfound friendship with Scott is quite possibly the worst thing that could possibly happen in the Hamptons. It's so bad that I actually can't help wonder — at least three times during each episode — why Kourtney even invited Khloe to the beach at all? With that being said, here are 5 reasons why Khloe and Scott really shouldn't be friends right now.

She's Recovering As Well

Khloe is hardly in a position to be counseling someone else on tragedy — during last week's episode, she confessed that she still wishes she were married to Lamar Odom today. And, honestly, Khloe shouldn't have to be at a point in the collapse of her marriage to be able to carry Scott through his grief. But it definitely doesn't mean that they should be BFFs.

Khloe's Always Been A Partier

And, right now, the last thing Scott and his relationship with Kourtney need is for him to be peer pressured by Khloe to party. She's living it up with French Montana and that's all well and good, but that lifestyle clearly isn't right for Scott. Especially when we consider his relationship with alcohol.

Scott Needs Structure, Not A PIC

Scott is flailing and he needs serious help, which is why he really needed to go to rehab during last Sunday's episode. Everything seems like it's kind of a joke to Khloe right now, which is fine if she wants to live the YOLO-life, but Scott needs more structure than that. And he absolutely needs more of a support system, rather than a quick-fix, partner-in-crime to wreak havoc with.

They Never Really Got Along Before

I mean, Khloe accused him of being a murderer. Did she just decide that she DGAF about murderers anymore?

Khloe Undermines Kourtney All The Time

I get that Khloe thinks Kourtney can be totally nuts. They're sisters, that's fine. But she absolutely shouldn't be agreeing with Scott and undermining Kourtney while she's staying in her house. If Kourtney wants Scott to sleep on the couch, Khloe shouldn't be letting him crash in her room. She's driving a wedge between Kourtney and Scott and making his situation worse by not sticking by her sister's side.
