Legos: capital of Nigeria and fun activity

I haven’t found love like this. The car stays.

I sacrificed my furniture to be here. Goodbye, ottoman.

Who would’ve known that moving to India would mean fewer English speakers? Not Jenny.

What the fuck is Usman saying at any given time?

Naturally, but it would take a long ego-crushing time.

I sure as hell hope not- IIRC she once ran on a torn MCL(?) in a final leg 1 just for him to refuse to eat on leg 2.

I would’ve loved to see Messy and Nelly (the two rocket scientists) in a strategic elimination like Bananas v Devin with the light switches. They would’ve had to provide sleeping bags for the spectators.

I’m a little out of practice but… with online dating, isn’t excessive filtering like Ashley and Monique’s sort of… ill advised? Frowned upon? The white truck might be Derek going “No that’s not her. Different head and body entirely.”

Jordan’s a little shit who no one should be inviting into bed. That’s all. Also we’re missing the “Nelly: Ride (or die) Wit Me” from the episode title which makes it punny.

My brain, every time Kimbolly screams that she’s A Grown Ass Woman:

Ashley is… odd. So she mistook Handy’s “Hey am I still watching your dog and house?” for a “I’m no longer watching your dog and house”…? Just to create a situation where she could “feel guilty” enough to have a drink with Handy against her boyfriend’s direct wishes for her to simply not drink with men who’ve expressed a desire to sleep with her and live next door? Seems like it’ll all work out. Not crazy about Gabby but her soon to be in-laws suck. “This is our car because our son/brother bought it for her” - No idiots, that makes it her car. Michael seems pretty chill but I’m skeptical that Justine’s going to do herself any favors in the baby mama PR department.

Miscarriage, actually. I felt for Jason on this; it wouldn’t have killed Lindsay to give him a heads up that she’d be putting their very recent, very shared loss on the cover of People Magazine. I think he also mentioned she shared it with the media before he’d even processed it and told his family. Jason seems like good people.

I was coming here to write everything @mojoween said. Devin is killing it in these confessionals. ”He’s like a carpenter. Or an electrician. The handsomest electrician on the planet.” I like them gassing up Horacio because he seems like a genuinely nice guy and good sportsman. I thought a better Zone Twist would’ve been “Vote someone on the other team into elimination, their RoD (on your team) competes with them and maybe they both get eliminated.

I found it interesting that the same Jessica who didn’t have room for Luke to respond to her feelings night two(?) seemed so butthurt that Rachel did the same to her when she came into the kitchen to say her piece.

Booker's mom kept calling Price's office to say he was innocent (no known video at that point) and showed up at the courthouse during another case- he told Moms it wasn't appropriate for him to converse with her directly and that Booker's lawyer should be the one reaching out. I imagine that's why/when they hired Ms. Frazier, who called for a pre-trial/new evidence hearing.

FWIW, the OP said Booker's race had nothing to do with OP's opinion of him, not that it had nothing to do with the episode/case. I don't feel we can characterize the shooting of the CO as an accident when the gun was pointed at him by Booker, and the gun was drawn as result of Booker attacking the CO. The attack of course being an attempt to incapacitate the CO (incapicitate, or kill, I don't think Booker cared either way in that moment) in order to get away. That's malice/intent. He also fled the scene and didn't attempt to help him after the shooting did happen. At minimum it's involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide.

Two cheeseburgers and a milkshake in fifteen minutes, after a year plus in prison? I think we all figured he was in the toilet.

Someone make it make sense. They start out picking alternates (Pick 1 for Messy is F, Pick 1 for Moriah is M) but then switch after two picks each to both selecting guys? Did Production just not want Messy to start crying / breaking his toys? Also -- does this Jordan thing mean Nurys and Johnny weren't soulmates?

"Hey look at this video I took of Booker absolutely not killing that guy." "Woopsy." It's true, mostly because I would never confess to a a murder I didn't commit. But I've been taught from a young age that if you're being questioned about your involvement in a crime, you don't tell the cops a fucking thing. They tell you themselves that they have every intention of using anything you say against you. Luckily he didn't go to jail for the murder he didn't commit, he went to jail for the one he did commit.

^^This for me, too. I get that once someone confesses to a murder, the police aren't going to spend time and resources trying to disprove them.. but.. Were there really no witnesses willing to speak to police at the scene and tell them that Booker had just been in the wrong place and tried to help? Booker confesses to a murder he didn't commit in <2 hours because Shaw said what every investigating cop is says to a suspect- that he can help himself by telling the truth- because no one wants to listen to their Miranda warnings apparently. He attempts an escape, killing a CO in the process, during the new evidence hearing of a timestamped 4K video of someone else shooting the victim and he/Booker coming to his aid that would 100% exonerate him since the framing and quality was such that the camera could have only been mounted on the fucking streetlight directly above the victim's corpse. On the lam he stops for some cheeseburgers with his brother but leaves the minute his CO ladyfriend doesn't show up, because he (correctly) assumes she ratted him out, stopping to drag a mother-of-3 hostage at gunpoint into a crowded bookstore (the most sacred of places) and terrorizes people who just wanted an iced mocha and something to read. Not to mention his story about the white supremacist's murder threat, which turned out to be bullshit. If you want us to feel sympathy for Booker, L&O, don't make him so unsympathetic and fucking reckless with human lives. And if you want us to think Shaw is a shitty cop, you need to show us how he was shitty. Nothing we've seen from the character so far gives any indication he would leave a scene without the due diligence of talking to witnesses and scouting for cameras. And Shaw motioning to them to move slowly, as if Booker was a T-Rex?

The comment she made to Rachel about how she/Jess is the girl who gets the guys right away but she/Rachel is the one who will get them later reeks of delusion and condescension. And I hope I didn’t hear correctly in the preview that she told Rachel no guys are interested in her due to her lack of T&A. What the actual fuck Messica. IMO: Rachel is the most beautiful girl to appear on this franchise.

“He’s not done (with drugs)” “You can’t save him” “In December he’ll be good for a month then spend all your money on drugs” “You think he’s right for you because you’re in love, that’s why I’m here to tell you that you’re stupid” “He’s already shown you he won’t change” …It’s really saying something when Jessica’s sloppy chest-tattooed word-slurring friend is the wisest person to ever appear on any iteration of this show.

Logan: * perfectly verbalizes how Kate puts him down constantly and emotionally terrorizes him * Kate: “No I don’t.” Logan: “Yeah no, you’re right.” Should’ve gone on a date with Elsa, my dude. Kate’s got major Wicked Mother-in-Law vibes. …Why didn’t Elsa tell him to Let It Go..?

If they ever remake the movies “Big” or “The Truman Show” they can have Bilal play the same character from infancy through old age.
