LMAO! That is too perfect. And so very true! Patronizing. Definitely.

ETA: So in which alternate universe are Charla and Mirna "two young girls"? Cause, um, sorry, not in mine!

Yup. Just checked. Sorry, Mirna, but two 30-year olds ain't "young girls." Nice try.

Annie, it's the way Mirna always runs around saying "two young girls." I think of myself as young, but the IMPRESSION she gives (due to her voice and editing) is she thinks she's 20 years old. She's actually not the youngest female in the race, so it irritates me when she constantly tries to play that card!

And honestly, the BQs were able to get help, as were most of the others. I think it has more to do with the attitude, the way she talks (fake accent), and the slightly belligerent "my friend" tone she takes with people. Like they should be honored to help her.

And I can't believe that some of them aren't still in Poland trying to tune the pianos.

The pianist was VERY generous in letting them go.

Besides the BQs, NONE of them had the key anywhere close to in tune.

<Marm could have gotten it in under 10 seconds, but then again, she's done it before.>

I can't believe that Mirna doesn't understand why people don't like her or want to help her. I could have sworn I heard her call that first travel agent "my sister." After a bajillion people don't like you, wouldn't you eventually stop to question if something was wrong with your own personality? Mirna is even treating Charla like crap on this race. Pretty soon she'll drive away the last person who seems to like her.

I agree, Marm, about the piano tuning. I am not a musician, and I could hear that the string was not in tune!

I am sooooooo glad to see so many people coming to see that the BQ's are smart and pleasant as well as pretty! The one that has been playing the piano since she was six might just be talented as well!

I never understood why people didnt like the BQs in the last Amazing race, I always liked them. I was very very very happy to see Team Guido gone. I am rooting for the BQs for the win, they just have a good attitude.

I think the BQs are great (but everyone knows that by this point). They're smart, they have fun, they treat each other well, they treat local people well, they work with other teams (even ones they don't like all that much), they are extremely competitive, they rarely complain, they never get down about things and they enjoy the race and the places they visit! They have done everything possible to destroy the stereotypical blonde beauty queen image and I love it! I think at this point they are my favorite team of any TAR.

The BQs were also my favorite team last year... and right about now they are ranked up there with the hippies as one of my all-time favorite TAR teams.

I still think there was something odd with the Polish people Mirna was asking help from. From the beginning they would turn away, even the police. Do you suppose they were really freaked out by tiny Carla? There truly was a universal snubbing of them.

I love the BQs! I am hoping they make it to at least final 3 (and hopefully all the way).

That may have been. But I also think a lot of it had to do with the way Mirna approached them. Maybe if she wasn't so aggressive?

Don't forget, its not just being approached by two "young girls" (snerk), but the cameras that accompany them...not everyone wants to be on camera!

Aha, Kizz, maybe a little paranoia left over from the communist era. I never thought of that, but I'll bet you are right.

Ok, Mirna is rude and does come across as a bit "in your face", but it just seemed like if no one wanted to help them at all. This was unusual for me because TAR editing has shown Mirna/Charla being able to obtain help in other countries.
