Great post Bastable! You are right on! The only thing that made me sad to see Heather and Eve go is that Aaron and Arianne DIDN'T! I'm with you on that, Essence.

Eve was a huge whiner. I wonder what it's like for her to watch herself. I thought it was hideous that they made another contestant move that port.

And can you believe they had the nerve to say at the end, that they were proud of how they played with ethics and morals?!?!

Begging for money at the airports? Blocking someone in and making them carry your wine before you move, etc, etc, etc....

I am so glad they are gone!

They were "proud of their ethics and morals" because they were FILMED taking the taxi when they should have walked! They knew the truth would come out.
I just wonder if they volunteered that info right away, or if they waited to see what would happen, then were confronted about it and given the chance to admit it on camera.

Future lawyers of America! These are the people at the front lines of justice system. Scary. Is it any wonder why our legal system is gummed up and barely works anymore?

As I said in another thread, lawyers like these terrify me and hold our legal system hostage. To them, rules aren't infallible...they're only a good as your ability to argue around them.

Please let me be the first to thank the producers of the show for laying down the law and refusing to indulge H&H with their fluid definitions of the rules.

On the CBS Amazing Race site there is a video of Heave after the race. They talk about their "quarter life crisis" and how hard it is to be 25, etc.

I think these are girls who went to college to find good husbands (no better place than an Ivy League college!) and stayed in school because they didn't find husbands, and are now not sure they want to be lawyers even though they got the degrees.

I had a few friends like this when I was in college. They were amazed that I actually wanted to be an Accountant when I graduated. Three of them went on to get Master's degrees, because they didn't want to go out into the cold cruel world and get real jobs!

I think I agree with everyone here! Glad to see their whiney butts go, but I wish A&A had been elimated too.

So, you really think they were playing dumb, or are they just really that dumb that they can't read a clue and follow directions. "Walk? We can't take a cab?! No, that just means we have to walk INTO the pit stop." This is just beyond stupid! I didn't see them as pretending to be dumb, I saw them as really being this dumb. Unbelievable.

When A&A were sitting there at the end (when the lawyers were being told about the rule infraction)the look on the female A's face was so smug I wanted to slap it. Can't wait to see them gone too.

Brenda, I don't think they are dumb. One of them started to tell the cab to turn around and go back, so they could walk.

But all of a sudden, the other one started the "it means you just have to walk into the pit stop" routine and the first one followed her line of thinking.

I think they panicked and took their chance that they could argue it to the producers.

And they lost. :)

It's no excuse but on the Early Show, the lawyers said their cameraman told them it was okay to take the cab. Also, they said that the producers only review the tapes after 48 hours (really?) so it was only because the lawyers 'fessed up that the producers found out about it at that time.

Well, if that is true, Spear, then their comment about playing the game ethically makes a lot more sense.

To give the Harvard Chicks the benefit of the doubt (which is really stretching it for me), at the very LEAST they suffered from a terminal case of "Street Dumbs".

I have a lot of respect for Harvard's law school and I imagine any law students who follow TAR are amazingly embarassed by the poor (and stupid and prissy and whiney) showing of their colleagues.

Now that these bimbos are gone I can concentrate on cheering hard for Ian to get his ass booted.

I thought Heather was nice and not whiney... Eve on the other hand....

Like I said, they should have applied to be on "The Bachelor" instead.

I think they are both ditsy. I wouldn't hire them.
Did anyone see them on Caroline Rhea? They blew right past her, and went up to sit in the chairs. Caroline has sent them to Saks 5th Ave to buy a gift for John Secada in 40 mins. This should be interesting. They have 5 mins to make the camera outside NBC studios.

Well, they made it back to the (Caroline) show. Let's see what they bought him.....

Oh.. they had an "adventure". They got accousted by a perfume spritzer..LOL

I missed what they said they tried to get Cartier something, but it was 650.00, so instead they got him numbing shaving cream and astringent because they know that shaving can be a problem.. (LOL!!)
For the BIG gift they got him silk boxers. Uh-- ok girls.

Caroline and the show gave the girls a trip to San Fran. The audience got CD's.

Spear, I saw the Early Show too and am surprised it didn't have it's own thread. Why would they accept the opinion of the camerman. It was obvious that they should have walked. Even if the tapes are not reviewed until 48 hours (according to the girls) later they had to have know that they were seen by staff members when they arrived. Their confession was not necessary. They just plain cheated.

the cameramen aren't allowed to interfere with game play at all, but could certainly say something to the host once they arrived at the pit stop. i didn't hear the camera man say anything to them. i didn't even here him scream when the one girl drove like an idiot and hit a pole!

I saw them on the Early and was SO unconvinced of their story.

First of all...who's playing the game? Why was the cameraman involved in any decision making process? Why would you ask him his opinion? You are the contestants...it's your game..YOU make the decisions. He is a friggin cameraman, leave him out of it!

Second, "the tapes weren't reviewed for 48 hours...so we came clean on our own". Baloney! I bet the cameraman squealed, or they were spotted getting out of the taxi, and they had no choice to but to admit their "error". Why would they have changed the wording of the greetings, if they hadn't thought there might be a problem from the outset? I think the staff knew the girls had taken a cab at the time of their arrival.

I found it so telling how these two were able to rationalize and spin everything to make themselves look better. They claim they wanted to play the game ethically...well, I think their ethics are somewhat lacking. My ethics do not include panhandling in airports, using my good looks and femeine whiles to take money from guys for no good reason.

Ethics mean...when it says "walk"...you don't take a cab. You hoof it just like everyone else did. If you made an honest maistake...then you go back and fix it...you make it right.

I felt no sincerity in their interviews. I wanted to admire these gals...but I came away with nothing but contempt for them. No wonder people don't trust lawyers. (and being that lawyers make up most of our Congress...no wonder people don't trust them either!)

These girls need to go back to school and take "Following Directions 101". The directions for each leg of the race have specific rules. In this leg it said "must walk", is that hard to understand?. Watching all the other teams at the pit stop sweating their %@#$%^'s off and than seeing Heather & Eve show up without a drop of sweat was too funny. The girls knew something was wrong when they were in the cab and even thought they should go back to the stadium, they went on to the pit stop in the cab anyway. There was a team that made the same mistake last year but they realized it after looking at the directions again and corrected it. And to hear Eve complain about the rules at the end topped it off. I have no sympathy for these two at all.
