You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

ahaha- man, they were the ultimate worst clue readers and clue getters in the history of the show, based on frequency of going off the rails, how far off track they would go, and how freaking long it would take for them to FINALLY GET IT.

At this point (as it has been since the geeks got eliminated) the only team I'd be actually sad if they got eliminated is Toni & Dallas. But the Flowers in the Attic siblings and Team Almost Divorced are growing on me, mostly because they seem to work well together and are racing smart(er than, say, the Divorces and the Frat Boyz).

Next out: Terence and Sarah please!!

I also loved loved loved the Phil/greeter stuff. Man, that made me laugh. I also loved how Ken and Tina got out of their cab to clear a path! Tina: "Ken, be respectful!"

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

Nora is me.

Ken & Tina getting out of the cab to clear the path was the moment that really sold me on them, I think. It was a smart unexpected move and they worked really well together doing it.

And Phil summoning the gardener to greet each team was HILARIOUS. Seriously, nobody in Delhi could take the afternoon off for this?

So the Frats or Terrence and Sarah Next and then the decision gets more difficult. Actually, if we get the elimination of T&S and the Frats then we'll have a final three of v. good teams.

On a completely shallow note: the shot of Dallas's arms when they were running with the local kids just took my breath away! Yum!!!

Punishingly Intricate

the shot of Dallas's arms when they were running with the local kids just took my breath away! Yum!!!

seriously! And then his mom talking about how proud she is of the man he's become made me tear up.

I don't really like the sibs but they are racing well and they seem to be having a great time.

I could get on board with the sibs a lot more if they would just freaking stop talking about how they "have a target on their back" and how people are "gunning for" them. Um, NO! Also, shut up.

I forgot to mention that also the power lines number judge guy was HILARIOUS.

Oh god yes. He might have been my favorite part of the whole ep.
