Random thoughts on this episode while watching the finale.
Any doubts I had about Jeff being a total hypocrite as far as his faith goes have been erased. He's actively rubbing his success in the face of the other team and being cruel for the sake of being cruel. Ironic considering his fans are complaining about the other team bullying Shane and Dani J. Yet nobody complains about Chris and Luke bullying Honora, oddly enough.
Eva says that she considered Jeff her brother after Madagascar. Presumably the one who gave you a swirly, ripped your clothes and blamed you when he broke your mom's vase.
Inspiring how the Team of Six work together here. Wish they'd shown more of this in the earlier episodes.
Jeff's back-paddling when Eva called him out on everything he said about their group to his diary cam is the funniest thing ever.
Again, they act like the Team of Six sharing is a big deal when EJ confirmed in his social media that there was a lot more sharing than the show depicted.
Clear Manipulative Editing cut of Alana making a face as Eva suggests taking their kill to EJ and Jeff in spite of everything they did to insult their group.
The announcement that the final XLR rating would be based on how many people made it to the extraction point has REALLY pissed off the Fan Dumb. Unless there's a total wipe out, the Boring but Practical Team Of Six will clearly come out ahead.
In the end, Slow and Steady won the race. And while their XLR rating was .1 lower than The Alpha Males, their final score JUMPED while the Alpha Males went down on the final approach.
