Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

TAR -- I feel like often when there's been a U-Turn, it's been a non-elim leg, right? I was surprised that a strategic move like that actually took out a team!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That was a very unexpected outcome. I always thought the U-Turn being non-elim was kind of a cop-out, so I'm as glad they've dispensed with that. No Roadblock this ep - I wonder why?

ETA: I'm betting the cops are even more surprised.

Art Crawl!!!

Oh, yeah. Well, they had to know that was a possibility.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I always thought the U-Turn being non-elim was kind of a cop-out, so I'm as glad they've dispensed with that.

I agree, but...DAMNIT. For Joe and Heidi to be passed by two teams who are just barely literate is seriously frelled. I felt so bad for them.

Brandy and (?) made me wish they HAD done the Morse code. You go on the Amazing Race and expect not to get dirty? Hello? And only "stupid teams" take the physical task? Ummmm, you chose it too.

I kept confusing the models and the BB couple. Both teams were so whiny.

Punishingly Intricate

I can't help it, I still love Jeff. "Big Ben! Parliament!"

He's pretty funny and they are both generally good sports even if they are dumb as a box of rocks. The models are just super annoying.

I felt kind of bad for Joe & Heidi but, dag, did they come smug. Her thing about liking the models because they clearly came from "good families" like her and Joe from a past ep (last week? week before?)? What was that about??

Reading your posts makes me very comfortable with my decision not to watch this season.
