Nancy, in an interview, says that she is having a hard time with the language she's hearing from some of the other contestants cough Paul and Amie cough. She also mentions the issue of "backstabbing," which again makes me really think I'm right that they didn't poach the cab, because if they did, she's so going to be struck by lightning. Nancy thinks Emily would be mortified if she knew her mom was saying these things, but frankly, I think a certain amount of that from your mom is expected. Your mom is supposed to be a little less wild than you are -- it's the nature of things. (Yeah, yeah, your exceptions are noted, Cher and Grace Slick.)
In their cab, Margaretta tells Davey she thinks she's handling things well. "You're doing extremely well," he agrees plainly. "You were brilliant last night, honey, thinking about having this cab waiting here for us. Absolutely brilliant." Margaretta leans on his shoulder and smiles. Meanwhile, Paul and Amie have EXACTLY the same argument they had in the cab after the Taxicab Skirmish -- he wants to quit, she wants him to stop threatening to quit, quaaaack quack quack. In an interview, Paul says that he would rather have Amie than a million dollars. The producers of Antique Roadshow immediately call to offer Paul a certain appraisal they think might be of interest to him.
Team Ensure's driver clears up that the flag isn't from Turkey, it's from Tunisia. "We're going to Tunis?" Davey asks. "I didn't know that was Turkey. Turkey's not Tunisia." You know I love you, Davey, but huh?
Paul and Amie are looking for a boat to Turkey. Man, these people are inept. I'm surprised they don't cook their clothes and dry-clean dinner.
Bill and Joe are getting the skinny on the flag, and I am not joking when I say this: Joe looks at the guy they're talking to and says, in English with a slight accent of indiscriminate origin, "This is Tunisian flag?" What the hell? I think everybody ate some funny mushrooms at the chateau last night.
Kevin waves down at Nancy and Emily from a high window as they arrive at the Port of Marseilles. Momily (tm somebody -- claim your tm and I'll get you next time) are trying to figure out how to get up to where he is. Nancy's voice says, "We are extremely fond of Kevin and Drew. Those two guys are just great. They're so good to us." Once the teams manage to meet up, Kevin greets Emily with a big hug. "Plenty of time, plenty of time," he reassures them as he curls an arm around Nancy and drops a kiss on top of her head. Kevin: "Nancy and Emily, they're like family at this point in time, and we've been with them since the very beginning. Drew and I have sort of adopted them as the mom and the little sister." Next, Drew's slightly more pragmatic view is heard: "We do have a motive helping them out. I'd rather have Nancy and Emily in the final leg than have to go against the attorneys, and Guidos " I suspect both of these things -- affection and self-interest -- are at work.
