Elsewhere, Gretchen, still on the freeway, thinks she and Meredith are going the wrong direction. She makes repeated use of both "doggone it" and "goddarn it." Missing in action: "Dagnabbit" and "Fuck all." She surmises that they will have to go all around the airport. Rob and Amber, on the other hand, have arrived at the airport at last. On the shuttle, Uchenna and Joyce are discussing the fact that they'll run into the American terminal first. They know, however, that that's the later-leaving flight. They discuss the possibility, however, that later-leaving can be earlier-arriving, and they wind up hopping off the shuttle at American. These teams get in line behind Patrick and Susan, and Susan fills them in on what they know. Somebody begs a cell phone, which they use to check on the United flight, because apparently, American won't tell them? That definitely makes American the assholes of the episode, which is sort of surprising, since what the teams would find out is that American arrives sooner, and that they're a sponsor. Good one! Bianca (I think) checks the status of the flight, and finds out that they're good where they are, because American leaves sooner.
Out in the parking lot, Rob (dryly -- or stupidly, depending on how you read him) observes, "We got to be a little quicker, I think. I think we're taking our time too much." Heh. They walk in. Gretchen and Meredith are here, finally, as well. On the shuttle, Rob encourages it to go, and not to stop for the old people calling out for it to stop. The shuttle starts to roll on. "That's too bad," Rob smirks, because he's not at all sorry. "Doggone it," Gretchen says...again. Maybe I should just interpret for you and insert the word she really means. Like so: "[Shit]," Gretchen says.
Commercials. Dove deep conditioning. Now without cucumber porn, unlike some of their sister products.
When we return, the shuttle does in fact stop and let Gretchen and Meredith on, and they ask for United, and Gretchen chastises, "You guys were all saying, 'Go, go, go.'" Well, right. Remember about treachery? Let's not be hypocritical there, lady. They grin broadly and Amber, trying to deflect as gracefully as possible (in my opinion), says, "That's not necessarily true," in a way that basically admits that it is. ["…Race. Shut up, Gretchen." -- Sars]
