I think it was sneaky, but not malicious.

Since we didn't actually see the conversation with the mom's, it's impossible to guess one way or another. The moms don't seem all that crafty to me.

Yeah, I think maybe the dad misheard or took a whimsical statement as fact. I can't see the moms diliberately being that sneaky. Plus, they probably would have shown the clip if they had told them that.

I didn't like the father/daughter team at first because in their intros, she seemed whiny and he seemed patronizing. "I don't treat you like an 11-year old kid; I treat you like a 26-year old kid."

Since then, though, they've grown on me.

I dont' see anything wrong w/ it. It's not their fault they actually fell for it.

My all-time favorite moment from this episode was when Charla kept pushing to get directions from the girl in the dance outfit near a bus stop, and Mirna told her to "leave her alone because she has work to do" (as a prostitute).
Those two are a trip.

Best. Reality. Show. Hands. Down.

Not one second of relaxtion. One hour of tension from beginining to end.

That currency exchange thing was kinda weird. Would be nice to see exactly what was said.

Chip and a twin both sitting in a cab and not moving. That was awesome.

Filming this stuff must be wild. I'd love to see a behind the scenes show on this.

Yeah - very gullible. Show me a foreign country outside of Europe where people don't gladly take American dollars.

Much like last year, I've pledged to stop watching when my team gets eliminated....and the twins were awfully close to ending my season pass.

I was clapping for Donny and Allison when they got the boot. But now that they're gone, who will be the evil team we love to hate that sticks around, like we've had in other seasons? And what was that crap about Donny saying that he needed to "redefine" his relationship with Allison? I hope that's Donny-speak for "dump that whiny bitch."

He can't dump her until she gives him permission to do so. She may be a cast-iron bitch, but I don't think that Donny could even manage to tie his shoes without Allison telling him how to do it.

Exactly - unless you never read a newspaper and don't watch the news, you would know that Argentina's financial state is a disaster. Of course they are going to take an American dollar. The only reason they might not do it in Europe right now is because the Euro has been pretty strong against the dollar over the last year or so.

How about the twins being pissed because Chip wouldn't just let them get ahead without a fight. "He's showing his true colors..." (paraphrased). Hello! It's a race!

Just like Groucho to support his favorite team (Bowling Moms) instead of looking at the facts...

Thank God Alison is gone. She's a total bitch. I didn't think it was an act on Big Brother and on The Amazing Race, it's clear that she is. She needs help. Her boyfriend, Donnie, probably deserves her.

However, I did think they would get further. Buh-bye and good riddance!
