Episode Report Card M. Giant: B | 2 USERS: C YOU GRADE IT Smithing and Sewing
By M. Giant | Season 21 | Episode 4 | Aired on 10.21.2012
Gary seems to realize that they let down the fans they were supposedly representing, and they finally make it to the mat when the sun's getting low in the sky. The greeter welcomes them to Dhaka, and Phil says they're the last team to arrive. But there have already been three elimination legs in a row, so maybe--nah, they're Philiminated. They emote disappointment theatrically. "We gave it the best shot we had," Will says, which is the saddest part of all. "Aabar dekha hobe (Goodbye)," the orange-bearded greeter says, already understandably tired of them. They interview that they wouldn't trade anything for this experience, which was the greatest of their life. At least they don't say there wasn't anyone else they'd have rather done this with, because obviously that would have been a Bald-Faced Lie, and finger-bells don't really fit the mood at the end of a Philimination episode.
