Episode Report Card Miss Alli: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT More-WHAT-ee-us?

By Miss Alli | Season 10 | Episode 7 | Aired on 10.28.2006

But it's also interesting that Tyler said basically the same thing Rob said about "segregating themselves," which is very similar to some of what Dustin and Kandice have said. These people don't like Lyn and Karlyn partly -- not exclusively, but partly -- because they don't feel like they talk to anyone. We don't like them, but they didn't like us first! It's a damn epidemic.

Anyway, commercials. Now, Duracell is taking credit for firefighting. All righty.

When we return, we see the tail end of the fight, and then Tyler is out in the hallway, apparently post-ticket-buying, saying that the *lyns are complaining about rules, "which is crap because they're just jealous." And then he and James crack up, so I did take that as something of a joking use of the "y'all are just jealous!" refrain that's become something of a catchphrase (heavily, but not exclusively, on the American Idol boards, where it is usually employed without irony), not that this changes the fact that Tyler had plenty of real dick moments during that discussion. In fact, as he's on his way out of the office, tickets in hand, he can't resist yelling out, "Bye, guys," which is so unnecessarily prickish that James tells him to knock it off. Meanwhile, Karlyn is also still being obnoxious, telling Ticket Joe, "I hope you feel good about what you did," as Lyn loses patience and says to her, "Leave him alone." Karlyn goes on about how it wasn't right, and Lyn waits for her to be quiet, and then says to Ticket Joe, "I need the fastest flight to Mauritius." I wish she and James could have gone for coffee after that happened, leaving Tyler and Karlyn in time-out. The *lyns get their tickets.

So after all that, all the teams are on their way to Mauritius on the same route, connecting through London. (Amazing Yellow Line: "Oy.") In Mauritius, the teams hop off the plane and start looking for the marked cars. Tyler and James comment on the very nice weather they're having. When they get to a car, they find a model boat that says, "Swim to me." And the boat is called "Isla Maurita." As Phil explains, they have to figure out (!) that this is a real boat anchored in Grand Bais. Really? They have to figure something out, rather than just "drive here"? Shocking! As Tyler and James get going, they're having a little trouble remembering what side of the road to drive on. It turns out that they have left the airport, however, with absolutely no idea where they're going. They start to wonder, once on the road, whether that was the best idea. James thinks a hotel might know where the thing is, but Tyler isn't sure where a hotel would be. See, I would have tried someone at the airport, knuckleheads. I swear, they would leave a Walgreens and drive to a hardware store to buy tampons.
