Yeah she probably is. I mean for the most part it's probably just Mike and occasionally the other guys down there.

The basement likely gets cleaned far less than it should… I don’t think we’ve ever seen Karen down there even. She might be horrified! 🤭

I think she was there once when she found that blond wig strand.

Yup, the only time I remember her being in the basement is when she finds the blond wig strand by the fort. I’m guessing the laundry room’s down there too, so she’d be in there more frequently.

This line gets me every time I watch it too. I always remember my DIL (then oldest son’s gf) complaining that our other sitting room “stank of teenage boys” not surprising seeing as younger son and his friends had been in there playing games for a while before. As a Mom of boys I can smell the Wheeler’s basement 🤣

Didn't get it context please.

This scene is in season 4 episode 4 when she wants to go to Billy's grave. Steve doesn't want her to go but she refused to stay because it's possibly her last day on earth and spending it in the armpit that is mike wheelers basement isn't how she wants to spend it

Man this line really makes we want to see for scene of Mike and Max!
