No kidding this was a great episode. Thank whoever's watching these things that Ray and Deanna are gone and the brothers are still around. And there was a sweet, karmic justice that Ray and Deana went from first to last in one leg and that Meredith and Gretchen beat them.

I'm as conflicted as mary_linton about Rob and Amber. They're good racers, they treat each other well, and they seem to be enjoying themselves. They're good television, too. But they don't treat anyone else on the race with any respect whatsoever, and Rob said a couple of things last night that really bothered me.

Although the crap treatment is pretty mutual. If it had been Rob and Amber who crashed, I don't think Lynn and Alex would have stopped - no matter how much they pride themselves on being decent human beings. Really decent human beings don't bitch about others the way those two do about Rob and Amber. Or shriek at fishmongers that they're cheats.

The lions were cool.
