And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I also wonder how much prior boat-handling experience was helpful.

Yeah, I think if you're not used to handling currents that would have been incredibly difficult.

I thought Korina and Emily's clothes were better constructed but I'm not a judge.

I liked Korina/Emily's clothes better on the runway, but as soon as all three models were standing next to each other it was so obviously a hot mess. Still, I thought Char would go home for boring & bad construction. I didn't think it was close enough for a sew-off.

Because books.

My favorite part was Heidi and Sean making faces at each other while Korina was ranting.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Korina is a piece of work. I do think Char should have gone home, but now I'm glad she won the sew-off. The Sean probably had something to do with that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sean had a lot to do with it, but Char did have the sense to pick good fabric for an hour challenge. Korina's often gone wrong at choosing fabric - she probably shouldn't have been the one to go to Mood for her team, really.

I was disappointed that the flight attendant mom and daughter on TAR were falling apart so bad. Also OMG WTF with the peeing!?!?!?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oh yeah, with the peeing. (If you're absolutely going to do it, jump off the boat and hunker down in the opaque water, please.)

Also OMG WTF with the peeing!?!?!?

I think because they are superfans, the daughter remembers that season where the African American sisters team got eliminated because one of them had to stop to pee on the way to the pit stop. She was probably thinking, "No way is that going to happen to me." But I agree that melting down this early is worrying. What happens when you get to India and Killer Fatigue is setting in?

I am liking the season so far. I still don't like the Dentists but I give it to them. They are very strong competitors. I love the Soul Surfers. They just seem like genuinely lovely people. They work well together and they enjoy the race. I guess surviving your arm getting bitten off in such spectacular fashion will bring some perspective to your life.

So Twitch is going to be in the new Magic Mike movie. I didn't need another reason to see it, but that certainly is one.

Awesome!

...I would like an LAista movie outing for this, I think.
