I wish the challenges had been longer this time to give Mark and Bopper a chance. I wasn't sure if they even started on time because Mark was getting an IV. These challenges seemed pretty simple this time and didn't take much time. Maybe they started so far behind that there was no way to catch up but winning the FF should have meant they had a chance.

I think it showed a lot of courage and pride in one's self to not shave her head for the Fast Forward. It really speaks to her character that she would not go the easy route to gain an advantage.

Actually, since the issue was hair extensions, it is more like pride in an object that she bought. Since that's an object anyone with $500 can buy, it has nothing to do with "self." really thought, it was a pretty clear display of low self esteem.

Since they didn't get eliminated this round, it turned out good for her. Since they have to fly out of India, there'll most likely be a bunch at the airport, so any time advanatge they might have gained by using the fast forward would have been wiped out within the first five minutes of next week's episode.

I'm so disappointed that Mark and Bopper got eliminated. I don't care who wins now either. I know I don't want Art and JJ to win.

I think it showed a lot of vanity and stupidity she didn't do the FF.

I take a different view. The lady who won a few seasons ago did indeed shave her head. She did away with vanity and did it for the chance her family/loved ones could have a much better life. Not only did she win, she looked lovely winning.

Not doing the FF because of $500 hair extensions, cost them $10,000 each.
It's a no-brainer; you're there you do the FF, move directly to the pit stop.

Mark and Bopper never had a chance. Kind of disappointing for them to be put in that predicament. Is this the first time a team has completed the FF and still come in last?

It has to be. They were nearly 4 hours behind in starting though. The most upbeat and likable team since I started watching AR. I don't think we have seen the last of these 2. Maybe not AR again nor Survivor, but somewhere.

I have to put them up there with Jet and Cord McCoy brothers from Oklahoma and both rodeo cowboys.

I told My wife that same thing, we'll see them again.
