3:41 AM. Boston. They're sort of dressed for casual Friday today, with Alex in a dark button-down shirt and Chris in a cable-icious coffee-colored sweater. Chris, however, is also wearing an ugly hat. A gray one. Knit. With a white stripe. If that sounds to you like it wouldn't really go with a coffee-colored cable-knit sweater, you are onto something. As they read the clue and clamber into their camper, Alex voices over with some shock that people originally seemed to think he and Chris were dumb, but now everyone can see that they have "a head on their shoulders." See? I told you they didn't have necks. Chris calls the camper "posh." Heh. They head out.
In the Teeth Camper, Blake is expositing for Paige that there are two islands that make up New Zealand, and they're going from one to the other. She is fascinated. Wil and Tara, meanwhile, are rather spectacularly lost. He insists that she told him to go in this direction, and she insists that she couldn't have directed him to go anywhere, because she's busy reading the map. I'm not sure I see the logic in that one, I must admit. Having the passenger read a map doesn't do a whole lot of good unless said passenger also occasionally communicates with the driver regarding where the driver ought to go. ("You just keep driving! I'm busy reading the directions!") As they stop to regroup, Tara voices over that being stuck with the Weasel for a month is taking its toll on her. Now that I can believe. Back in the camper, she yells at him that he's yelling at her, and he yells back, "Yeah, 'cause you're stupid." Tara: "I'm not stupid, but I can't see the road and read the map at the same time." Here, she makes a meager attempt at diplomacy by voicing over that anyone would probably have driven her nuts by this point, so it might not be Wil in particular. Oh, no. I think it is. He orders her to drive. She takes the wheel, and is trying to put the thing in neutral so she can start it. "I don't know what you did to make it not go in neutral, but it won't go in neutral now," she snots. Oy. I think this is a good example of people who just bring out each other's worst qualities, and when that happens, you've just got to get away as quickly as you possibly can.
5:04 AM. Cha-Cha-Cha, last to leave. Oswald emphatically rips open the clue. (I don't know how else to describe it. I'm surprised he didn't say, "Olé!") They are particularly excited when they get in the Cha-Cha-Camper and they find out that it's a Mercedes. Danny voices over that they try to enjoy themselves no matter what. Sniff. They're such darlings. Let's get a pedicure, boys, when all this silliness is over. It's on me.
