By Miss Alli | Season 11 | Episode 11 | Aired on 04.28.2007
There is much driving around, but is this really suspenseful at this point? Pink is navigating, and she seems a little baffled, while Mirna is self-navigating, as she tends to do, and Danny and Oswald are asking for directions. Driving, driving, driving. Maybe I'm losing interest in driving after eleven seasons. And now, at the pit stop...Eric and Pink! Welcome, you are team number two. And you are among the final three. Phil pretty much tells Eric that he should be proud of Pink for beating people who are better than she is. Once again, Man proud of Woman for Woman's accomplishments! Woman adorable! Woman cute as button! Woman finest accessory after frat pin!
Oswald and Danny, Charla and Mirna, blah bling blah. Pit stop, and it's Mirna and Charla, obviously, because that's the way these things go. Welcome to the final three. Charla gives a big scream.
And then, here come Danny and Oswald to the pit stop, going past (I believe) all the other teams' cars. Phil informs them that they're last, and that they're eliminated. They talk about how great the experience was, and then Oswald announces that they want Charla and Mirna to win. Danny continues: "Because I sincerely feel that those ladies are a class act." Oh, man. We have just stepped through the looking glass, people. I mean...obviously, my head just about exploded when I first heard that comment, because with the rudeness and the presumptuousness and the hypocrisy and the bullshit, "class act" is just about the last thing I would call them, after "calm." But I eventually decided that Danny and Oswald are applying the opposite principle that I did. Basically, because Mirna is a jerk, I tend to think of the team as sucking, even though there's nothing wrong with Charla, really. I think they focus on Charla, and they think of themselves as liking the team even though half of it sucks, just like I think of myself as hating the team even though half of it is fine. So their position is as valid as anyone's, despite the fact that it kind of makes me want to throw up to hear them say it.
Anyway, they say that they have "no regrets, darling," and they had a great time, and of their "many chapters," they agree that this is "two chapters." In an interview, Danny says that Oswald "will be pushing the wheelchair as I'm going into the home. The gay nursing home that I'm going to open up." Oswald dryly observes that maybe Danny will stop talking all the time. Ha! Still lovely, lovely people, even though the last couple of legs were uneven for them, as far as my personal opinions of a few of the things that happened.
