Episode Report Card Miss Alli: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Camel Kicks And Milk
By Miss Alli | Season 12 | Episode 3 | Aired on 11.17.2007
Meanwhile, back at the camels, Jennifer is all done, so they're ready to lead the camels on the path. This leaves Julia and Lorena.
Azaria and Hendekea are taking the Learn It option. Fortunately for them, they run into a kid who knows where they're supposed to go and can lead them there. Now, the other jumble of teams has finally found its way to the right spot, so we can have some teaching and some learning. Ron attempts to teach the word "skyscraper" by making a King Kong reference, which...you'd be lucky if an American kid the age of these kids understood that, and I don't understand why that would help teach the word anyway. I think he just wanted to beat on his chest, which is actually Tarzan, the way he does it, so...just push it back in, Ron. Push it all back in. The only learning team that seems to be splitting the words (as would seem logical) is Azaria and Hendekea. They're each taking five words, just kind of turning the cards over in their hands, not really interacting with the "teaching" child at all. It's probably most efficient, but I'm not sure it's the most memorable way to approach it, if you know what I mean. There are some really good shots of Nick and of TK and Rachel having a really nice time working with their kids. Jen brags in an interview that she's better at things involving patience. All evidence to the contrary, I guess.
Azaria and Hendekea, despite having fallen to sixth during the camel-milking, are indeed the first to leave the Detour, after successfully completing the recitation of their words. The clue they receive tells them to follow the marked path to the pit stop, which Phil tells us is on "the outskirts of Bingo." I'm interested in the notion that a community this tiny has "outskirts." I wouldn't even have thought it had...skirts.
As they run off, Nate looks out the window of the school and sees what he calls "a fat storm coming." Indeed, it's getting quite dark, and some animals appear to be taking cover. Now, with the storm closing in and still no milk, Lorena is genuinely beginning to freak out, just as Azaria and Hendekea -- with her in the lead -- are finding their way to the pit stop. Along with the friend who's been leading them around, they land on the very wet mat in front of Phil, who's holding an umbrella over himself. Do not disturb the spiky! They are Team #1, and they win another very romantic vacation, of which it appears they may wind up with several. This one is to Bermuda. Sexy! With your...sibling! That will be...kind of weird! Azaria says they now feel like they have a target on them, which...I guess, with the Yield, okay, but...I still think that makes it sound like you're on The Real World/Road Rules Challenge.
