And here come Linda and Karen. They're quite afraid that they're last. "I've never seen so much traffic on one street," Linda says. Elsewhere, the Twinkies are urging their driver to "go faster." By driving over other cars, perhaps. The Moms and Twinkies find the pit stop, and Linda and Karen are the first to hit the mat. Welcome, you are team number three. They're quite relieved. They high-five. And here come the Twinkies. Now they really think they're eliminated. Phil makes them suffer a little, and then tells them that they're team number four. They hate each other, but they act happy anyway.
Sigh. It is getting dark, and Brandon and Nicole are finishing the Heavy But Short task. It wasn't even approaching dusk when the other teams were finishing, so they were indeed running quite a bit behind. They get the necessary local pushing, they get the pit stop clue, and they get a cab. In the cab, Brandon talks about how "nuts" the day was, and adds, "We weren't expecting to have to shave our heads." Heh. "I have the sweet boyfriend, that's all that matters," Nicole says. She looks over at Brandon, and it takes him a minute to snap around, but then he smiles at her obligingly. I have a feeling that he is a doof, but an extremely good boyfriend.
Sad music plays as they pull up to the pit stop. "Well, we know what's coming," Brandon says. "Yeah," she says. "I love you," he adds. "I love you, too," she returns. "You okay?" he asks as they walk toward Phil. "Yeah," she says, only medium-okay, but doing her best. They talk about how they're "definitely goners," and then they are on the mat. Welcome, blah dee blah, you are the last team to arrive. They sigh. And then Phil busts out, "The good news is..." and they realize that it's non-elimination. Brandon's jaw drops -- literally -- and he stares at Phil like, "You're shitting me, Phil!" Although he can't say that because of Standards and Practices. And because of Jesus. Instead, he just goes, "WHAT?" Hee. Nicole, shocked, brushes her hand over her head, brushing off the flower petals and assuring herself great public castigation for another week. Phil explains, however, that he will be taking all their money. They don't care, though, because they're so happy not to be gone that Phil can have all their money and they barely mind. "We had no hope," Brandon tells Phil. "We were hopeless." Hee. "We'll take it," says Nicole, glad to still be in it with about 75 percent of herself, I think. I think the other quarter of Nicole has had it, and would just as soon go home. ["Yeah. I think the percentage was higher than that. To me, she looked a little disappointed that she didn't get to leave India immediately to go chill in Sequesterville. She is really so tired and wrecked at this point." -- Wing Chun] Phil asks how they feel about heading off from a pit stop in India with no money. Brandon says he's too relieved to care.
