It's down to the Final Four teams. Who will be eliminated next?
Last week we left our amazing teams in Perth (Australia) at the 9th Pit Stop of the race. Since Eric and Jeremy were the first to arrive there, they were the first to leave after a 12-hour long mandatory rest period. At 11:47 pm, they opened the clue which directed them to the Swan Bells Tower located about 15 miles away. The last team to leave, Ray and Yolanda, left at 12:23 am. So, we're talking a roughly a half hour between first and last — that's not a heck of a lot in a race around the world.
Oh, but of course, that doesn't stop the show from having yet another one of its infamous bunching points where the teams have to wait for a place to open! Sure enough, all the teams gathered before 1:00 am awaiting the opening of Swan Bells Tower at 8:00 am. As the race nears the end, teams are definitely a bit more stressed. Monica and Joe seem to have a few nasty words about everyone, but mostly directed at BJ and Tyler. Meanwhile, BJ tried to instigate Joe's jealousy by hinting that Eric was flirting with Monica. Hey, he flirts with every woman he sees. Of course, he's flirting with her. Ray and Yolanda got a bit away from the others, most likely to preserve their own sanity. Eric/Jeremy and Monica/Joe are now considered the "pretty teams." Um. Okay. Me? I still like BJ and Tyler the most, with Ray and Yolanda running second. I find Monica and Joe pretty...pretty annoying, that is!
Why annoying, you ask? Well, here's one example: All of the teams called taxis to meet them after they found the clue in the tower. What did Joe do? He schemed with Eric and Jeremy to impersonate both Ray and Tyler canceling the taxis! What a lowdown dirty sneaky thing to do! When the time came to catch the cabs, BJ and Tyler had entered one believing it to be the one they ordered only to have Joe go into a thorny snit about it being his cab. BJ and Tyler got out and it wasn't long before the dirty deed was exposed. I may have missed it, but it looks like Joe even canceled Jeremy and Eric's cab although they were in on the scheme to cancel the others.

"I was hoping one would at least nip at Monica to freak her out."
Are you friggin' serious? You wish a person, however badly behaved, to endure any amount of pain for your enjoyment?

Monica is so freaking hot, any word if she will pose for Playboy?
They really need an Amazing Race issue with her as the central person.

NR - Excuse me? Nip AT her, not NIP HER. There's a big difference. Where in my statement did I say I wished her any pain? You quoted the line I wrote. Nowhere did I say bite her.

Actually, MoJo didn't cancel the taxicabs, the frat boys did. And they didn't exactly correct the misassumption allowing the blame to fall on MoJo.
