1. Bill and Nicki (and Barb and Margene) in therapy. I think it would be awkward and hilarious, yet very cathartic for them to get their issues on the table.
2. Frankie in Nicaragua. Due to the recent murders of some FLDS members on Mexican compounds I think Big Love could make something really interesting here. He could be taken captive, held for ransom, killed. There's a lot of opportunity for action.
3. Nicki in court suing for custody of Cara Lynn. With Barb by her side and Ray Henry somewhat involved.
4. Alby arrested for his father's murder. I mean, he did try and kill Adaleen. He's a far more obvious choice than Joey to indict.
5. Alby having a homosexual encounter in jail.
6. A new love-interest for Ben. I hope. The Margie thing has to stop. Maybe Cara Lynn...I mean they both want to be polygamists. I know its a bit obvious but...
7. Sarah calls off the wedding with Scott. That girl can't make up her mind, I doubt she'll go through with it.
8. Margie working a lot and neglecting her family. Perhaps she'll even start drinking and smoking again around her new colleagues and this will be a bone of contention for the sister-wives.
9. Less inter-compound drama, power-struggle between Bill and Alby drama, and more drama with the wives and Bill - family stuff. Last season was sooo heavy and emotionally taxing. Maybe they'll go back to the slightly more light-hearted stuff of Season One.
They're filming in August so I'm assuming we can expect yet another season that takes place in summer. Its Utah for heaven's sake! It snows half the year!
What are your predictions?

Here's what BL creators Mark Olsen and Will Scheffer have to say about (some of) what we can expect to see in January. It's from the L.A.Times.com Big Love blog.
'Big Love' creators talk Emmys, Season 4 surprises
03:07 PM PT, Jul 27 2009
File it under things that are awesome: ?Big Love? has been nominated for a best drama Emmy! It?s sweet vindication for fans of the acclaimed HBO series who have seen this extended family drama finish its strongest season yet.
And the show runners don?t find it too shabby, either. ?We're beyond thrilled to be recognized, finally, and honored to be a part of a really amazing group of nominees,? wrote ?Big Love? creators/executive producers Mark V. Olsen and Will Scheffer in an e-mail. ?Honestly, we feel just to be nominated is already to have won. And to be nominated, for a first time, for our third season, suggests to us it really is about the work -- not the buzz or the hype, but the bone-crushing, sleep-depriving, punishing, yet exhilarating work that all of us invest in the show.?
The news is a little bittersweet, however, as the series failed to garner any nominations aside from best drama. ?Of course, we're disappointed that our actors, writers, directors and creative team were not nominated,? Olsen and Scheffer wrote. ?But we're hopeful this nomination opens the door for a fuller, longer look by the Academy next year. A show really can't be recognized as being superior without recognizing the superiority of its constituent parts. In fact, we think our show is so strong in all of its elements, from acting to costumes, music and editing (not to mention writing), that we're confident it really is just a matter of time, and that due recognition will come.?
In the meantime, Season 4 is just around the corner, and we asked Olsen and Scheffer to give us a little glimpse as to what we can expect come January. The biggest doozy comes with the patriarch. ?Bill is going to take an action that is fundamentally more dramatic and potentially game changing than anything he's done before,? the creators declared. ?He's seeking political office in Utah.? Gasp -- and risk exposure for his entire family? ?Let?s just say the stakes are life and death and that he sees no other way but to batten down the hatches and dive into the fray,? they said.
Bill?s run for office doesn?t put a stop to the Indian casino storyline, however. ?We will be there on the reservation in Idaho to fully participate in the Casino opening and everything that new franchise implies,? the creators said. ?And where there is a Casino, intrigue follows, and Barb will play significantly in it.? The creators confirmed reports that Adam Beach (?Law & Order: SVU?) has been cast as gaming bigwig Jerry Flute?s son. According to the creators, Beach ?is going to be a great character in terms of opening up that world for our family and our viewers.?
Back on the homestead, Nicki has her hands full now that teenage daughter Cara Lynn is back in her life. Also, ?things are still a bit rocky with Bill after her indiscretions last year, so expect some more trouble for her and from her around her ex husband J.J coming back into the picture,? they wrote. Back at Juniper Creek, Roman is still dead (alas), and ?compound life is never going to be the same.?
It?s going to be a banner year for the women. ?All of our females (including Adaleen, Lois, Wanda, Heather, Cara Lynn, Lura) are starting from completely new positions of reality and conflicts,? the creators wrote. ?It?s a season of rebirths, with all the excitement and danger that implies.? Margie?s chugging along with her new jewelry business. ?She's coming into her own in a way that's unprecedented for her character,? Olsen and Scheffer wrote. ?Her struggles to reinvent herself in the midst of the patriarchal family system she's a part of is going to resound and echo through the season for her and Bill, and also for the other wives.?
?Sarah is becoming her own woman,? the producing team offered. ?Even Teenie is back from her long summer away at various camps and an extended ?rehabilitative? stay with Barb's side of the family. So she's like an entirely different person, too.?
As for the oldest Henrickson son, ?Ben is maturing and he's reaching that moment in his life where simply living out his father's wishes for him may not be enough to satisfy him anymore,? Olsen and Scheffer said. They concluded with a phrase that could be summed up for the entire season: ?Expect surprises.?

I like Sara and Scott married and in a house. What is she going to do if someone or the entire family needs to find refuge there? How are they going to marry. Vegas? Church of Bill? Can she qualify for a LDS recommend and be married in the Temple? Scott's family has a brother who is a Bishop. How her family interacts with his family. Interesting inlaw stuff. Her family was polygamist but she was baptized in the LDS church before her folks became inactive. She may do this to please his family.
How bout some Lois and Frank conflict? Where is he? Why are both still alive? Very odd?
I'd like to see Teeny date. She will likely live the principle as she knows only that. That should be interesting as modern dating has problems with someone going out with another's boyfriend. With polygamy that's okay considering how she's been raised. But the world doesn't sit right with that. So she will have a different school experience than Sara who gets teased but though devoted to her family and wants to protect them feels the criticism is justified. She doesn't like the lifestyle where Teeny will tell strangers on the street what she believes. Teeny and Cara Lynn are going to battle.
Ben has to get off the Margene thing. The writer's are making both actors look like idiots with that storyline.
Bill should date an old workmate of Sara. Or maybe Brynn.
Heather should get into BYU through Bill's LDS business connections.
Love for Alby to be arrested.
I wonder who will get Roman's wives. Adelaide could be reassigned to Jay Jay or Frank. LOL Why hasn't the compound assigned Bill a wife? They pay Juniper Creek regular... Wouldn't that be funny for someone to end up on their doorstep with a prophet ready to seal her to Bill and wives? How would they handle that?
I hope Don and Peg get more wives. And some visitation for the children who left.

Personally, I would love it if Rhonda Volmer would blackmail and manipulate the three wives into convincing Bill to take Rhonda as the Fourth. Could you imagine the story lines?!? It would be way better than anything that would involve Ana coming back into the fold. Rhonda would be a perfect angel around Bill and downright ruthless behind his back. It would make perfect sense.
