Maybe the conflict of dating a soldier while supporting a platform for world peace is just too much for Kelly?

The more I see these two together the more its obvious they are not a pair meant to be together. Neither of them really have personality and after seeing her on this program I wonder how in the world she won a state beauty pageant. The personality is just not there.

Per a clip, not only did Joyce and Uchenna give clothing to Gretchen and Meredith, but Ron and Kelly also gave them clothing..

Tonight, they might as well have been driving around in downtown Cleveland for all the excitement they showed about their surroundings.. just want to shake them and say LOOK AROUND YOU! Giraffes, Elephants, ostriches, HIPPOS, and I think that was a warthog? Well okay maybe only Lynn and Alex saw that one..

At the pitstop they just had dead eyes.. no spark.. just sour. And Kelly and her sarcastic monologs.. wow.. not pretty.

Sea you must have been gone to the fridge when Ron said "This is a beautiful place, all the wildlife and everything, it's really amazing!" and "Check it out, that is so cool! Look how BIG that thing is!" when he saw the elephants.

No fridge, but if he said it, cool.. I was probably riveted by Kelly staring at the camera..

Yeah, when I went back to that part (because people wanted to know if he really said what she said he said..) I watched closely.. I can see how I got it tangled.. they were flipping cameras from a shot of Rob driving with backwards ballcap, with Amber in the back, to Ron driving with a backwards ball cap, with Kelly in back and if you weren't watching closely (I wasn't) you would hear Ron's excitement and see Kelly turn to look out the window, momentarily distracted from her ragging on him.. then they flipped to Rob and Amber again.

I do hope they found some moments to enjoy the moment.

And if they had won a leg with a trip prize, I'd think they wouldn't have taken the trip together.. the prizes they'd have wanted were the $10,000 each for the first leg, or the two vehicles that Ray and Deana won..

Mocha, I think he was excited AND hoping to distract her, or break through her endless loop.. he tried a few more times to interject talk of the race or not respond, but she kept it up.. up to, on and then off the mat..

This team is so painful to watch. I'm sticking with my earlier comment that this is like a bad date that won't end. They are in Africa surrounded by these magnificent animals (an African safari has always been my dream vacation) and they are doing nothing but *****ing at each other.

LOL! @ "momentarily distracted from her ragging on him."

This is a prime example of why I would never want to be ON the show. I always say that I'd rather have my hair pulled out one strand at a time than actually compete. I HATE to not know where I'm going or to be lost, I HATE to be in a hurry and then on top of all of that, I'd be in all of those well ......... amazing ......... places and wouldn't have time to stop and enjoy them. Like last season when they were in China where the clay soldiers were. I remember seeing just a handful of them at the 1982 Worlds Fair when I was a kid. I would have been SO COOL to see the whole place.

Love watching the show though. But nah, would never BE on it.

I was surprised at what Kelly thinks Ron said to her when he told her to chill out. SHe'll have egg on her face when she views the tape.

I'm sort of dreading their "exit interviews".. just fear they will be full of sniping. But I'm looking forward to their exit as they've become painful to observe.

This goes to show you that if a couple is really incompatible or not truely loving, if you put them into a stressful situation it will be most difficult for them to maintain a nice facade..

This can't be too comfortable for them, either, to be acting like this in front of the camera..

I agree Sea... I thought Kelly behavior was shameful as she just totally ignored Ron at the final pit stop. He tried to be congratulatory and touched her arm...she just turned away and then just walked off leaving him standing there alone.

All I can say, is its a good thing they are finding out now they aren't compatible....

Something interesting I just learned is that Kelly and Ron had broken up after they applied for the show but before the race actually started. They decided to try it anyway, and that may account for the strained nature of their relationship.

Apparently Kelly is dating someone new from her church, who doesn't enjoy seeing her on the show very much.....

Maybe this will be an eye-opener for her. She's not ancient and perhaps she can make a positive turn in her life. And if the new guy she's dating has what it takes, and if she is chagrinned, maybe they can grow together, who knows?

Julieboo - I thought that redeemed her alot to - she was truly concerned about someone else.

I give these 2 props for admitting they aren't a good couple and moving on rather than sticking together and getting married/staying married....

I thought she was telling Gretchen to get out and help Meredith, not asking others to help ... I'll have to watch my tape and see if i got it wrong - wouldn't be the first time!

I could be wrong too, she easily could have been yelling that to Gretchen. That would actually make more sense-especially seeing how emotional she was getting...

Didn't she say (on the previews)to Ron that he couldn't make a commitment, he pointed out that he was in the military and she said something about he got out of that by becoming a POW? Seemed like they were arguing. Unless this is some editing trick, that remark by Kelly was pretty disturbing.

I see there is a lot of talk about Kelly's comment going on in the thread about last night's show. I was surprised when I came in here and read nothing about it.

What can you say about that comment Happy? It was probably the worst thing I can remember hearing on any reality show. The girl is just so self involved she didnt even see what she was saying as anything bad. That was the saddest part. She was a beauty queen? Dont they usually give speeches that they want to save the world and be kind to ants?
