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

It's in France, and you get to see quite a bit of it since several teams spend a lot of time driving to the wrong town and back again.

People who watched Big Brother, tell me - how does Jordan manage to dress herself every morning? Every time she opens her mouth, I am stunned that she has survived to adulthood.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I know, right? She needs supervision.

I have to saw, as dumb as a post Jordan undeniably is, that team did in fact grow on me. I liked Jeff. Despite myself.

Since even I have done this when navigating with my sister, I will try not to judge too harshly.

Me too. I just cannon wait for Brent and Caite to be gone gone gone--they are soooo annoying with all of their passive aggressiveness and whining.

I was cheering when the brothers managed to stack those last few glasses and get the champagne poured! Way to balance, brothers.

I'm surprised at the strength of the cops--I had them pegged as early eliminees at the beginning of the race, lumped them in with the air traffic controllers back in TAR4.

Loved Steve's repair job on the car, and the fact that his wife's faith in duct tape was how he fixed it.

Ah, man, I missed Verdun!

ETA: These people are killing me. I think I'm glad I didn't watch this season.

And once again, Undercover Boss makes me cry.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Ticket on the Brent/Caite hate train, please. I will be so glad to see them go. Has there been a beauty queen on this show who has not been an entitled brat? I know there must be some perfectly lovely beauty contestants out there, but Caite is definitely not one of them. Maybe next week, we'll be lucky?

The police officers are definitely a surprise. It's tough to win three legs in a row. I'm still all about the cowboys, but I respect the cops racing ability. I have to give it up to dad and daughter, too. The duct tape auto repair job was badass. Dad just was not going to let that car beat him.

I have a strong suspicion that these particular ladies will not be the first all female winners of the race, no? The only reason they grabbed second was that so many other teams had navigation challenges.

Undercover Boss- I think that girl Danielle got a job at Southern California Edison and has been put in charge of answering all of my calls. She was heinous. I don't think I ever figured put what that company actually does? It wasn't exactly 7-11 or Hooters in terms of name recognition.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

UB: They do internet commerce, distribution and shipping. So you buy something from mlb.com, right, the baseball people don`t actually do Ll that work, They just have that guy`s company do it for them, warehouse, take orders, man the phones. I enjoyed it because I did inventory control once upon a time. But again I felt like there were more individual and no procedural changes.
 
TAR: I was so relieved the cowboys made up both their delays. Also love that their bad day did not dampen their spirits. "Hey, people pay thousands of dollars to take a tour like this."
 
I am loving the detectives. "I can find cocaine up someone`s butt, I can find a bunch of grapes." And grid search was smart. I love that they`re methodical.
 
I also agree that Brent and Caite can go right freaking now. Although that glasses crash was a thing of beauty.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

PR: I loved the winning looks so much! I need that dress. I could rock that dress. I loved the inspiration too and could totally see it as a modern day Billie Holiday. Plus they were so cohesive. I thought it was great they got a double win. I was really glad to see them work together so well.
