Kim Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian have shared an unexpected teenage prank from their past. The revelation unfolded in a recent episode of “The Kardashians,” which began streaming on Thursday, October 5.

During a visit to Century City mall, Khloé Kardashian, the younger sister of Kim and Kourtney, playfully exposed her older siblings’ youthful antics. Khloé, 39, informed the cameras about their past mischief, saying, “This mall has been around for years. You should ask Kourtney and Kim, they used to call 900 numbers [premium rate telephone numbers] and ask gentlemen to meet them here.”

In a confessional, Kim, 42, revealed the details of their strategy, saying, “We would talk to these guys — we were 15 — and then they would be like, ‘Meet me at Blockbuster or at the mall.’ And we would see the poor guy and we would stand him up. We would take a Polaroid, I have a book of Polaroids of these guys that we would stand up at the mall.”

Curious about their prank, Kim called Kourtney, 44, to see if she still remembered the number they used. Confirming her memory, Kourtney revealed she knew the number “by heart,” and Kim made the call during filming of the Hulu reality series.

The automated message for the service announced, “This is [redacted], where naughty is nice. Your live chat starts now.”

Viewers witnessed Kim briefly engage in a conversation with an unidentified individual before hanging up. She introduced herself as “Samantha” and asked for the caller’s name and location before ending the call with a playful comment, “I can’t. I got to save that number in my phone.”

Kim and Kourtney’s reminiscence of their teenage years follows a recent feud between the sisters that aired in the season 4 premiere. The conflict initially began in the previous season when Kourtney accused Kim of exploiting her wedding to Travis Barker for business purposes. Their disagreements escalated after reviewing confessional interviews from the third season.

Explaining their recurring tensions, Kim shared, “The problem is — and I will be real with you guys — last season was really rough. Then we were over it, we had fun. We talked it out [and] everything had been fine. Then we watched the edits for our show and I start hearing what she is saying about me. She hears what I am saying about her and then we get mad all over again. It brings up so many feelings.”
