Oh! I almost forgot another great line. I think it was Jill(?) talking about Thomas and the bridge Roadblock.
“He grew up in the mountains. They do this all the time.”
Huh? I grew up in the mountains, too, and I don’t recall anyone who wasn’t in military training (or ROTC) doing any rappeling. Hiking, yes. Camping, yes. Rappeling, no. It’s not like he grew up in the mountains in the 1910s and there weren’t any roads and you had to rappel down to town from your rickety house-on-stilts clinging to the side of a cliff.
She didn’t just match their speed, she crushed it. When she started the climb, Chad was pretty close behind her, and when she got to the top Chad was much farther behind.
That was interesting. First of all, away from the cover of a loser’s edit, Tony and Ron set my gaydar SCREAMING.
Second of all, I had no idea there was (apparently) some kind of bad blood between Team Volleyball and Team Darker-Oswald-and-Danny. I wonder if it’s because Tony and Ron are black, because they’re gay, or because of some incident that didn’t make the edit on the race itself?
One of the women on Team Volleyball seemed a LOT more into the Race and overall, more of a regular, down-to-Earth woman, while her teammate was fairly unpleasant to everyone she interacted with, including her partner…
(the more attractive of the two was the unpleasant one, FWIW)
I don’t know because Ron and Tony strike me as thoroughly likable people. Really charming, kind, and funny. I mean, maybe they are secretly horrible, but they sure don’t come off that way to me.
Hmmm, Tony & Ron fell behind so far and fast in England, I would think the only interaction between them and the rest would have been in the Boston airport or on the plane to London…
