I'm okay with Becca losing her cool at the egg count as they were on their second challenge of the U-Turn and her self frustration level was really high. When they returned she assured the young man that she wouldn't throw an egg at him. I would rather see them running the next leg than the Afganimals; who are rude to the point of mean. I'm really liking Colin/Christie and Kory/Tyler and appreciate that Nicole/Victor didn't give up during the turn around challenge at their part of the U-Turn. Happy Birthday, Nicole! If Team Fun had found the farm instead of missing it they would be in the race. They would have been potentially ahead of Granimals and not U Turned. Team Fun was able to both challenges quickly but going back for the eggs did them in. Back directions, being U Turned, cracked eggs. They could have recovered made it from two situations but all three did them in. Nicole and Victor, had a horrible time jumping the canal, over 10 attempts, but they checked their eggs. They were U Turned, and had to haul the cow up the Tower twice, they also couldn't find the farm. Both teams made mistakes and had problems with directions and physical tasks. It looked close. Nicole and Victor look as if they are the under dogs for the finale as Nicole is the one that tends to want to give up and she is not physically strong partner. She is lucky that she had Victor as a partner.

"I'm not really liking Becca right now."
That's not the first time she got really nasty when something didn't go her way. I remember the last time they were on the show, she did the same thing. She NORMALLY has a good attitude, but when the ugly side of her comes out, it comes out hard!

I was thinking the same thing. Last time Becca raced, she turned really nasty & angry like the flip of a switch. I was shocked. People do get upset and angry on this race, but not usually in the same scary way that a Becca did. She showed the same quick, intense anger when she told the guy she wanted to throw an egg in his face. Again, scary. She did recover quickly, though. My husband was saying that her Team Fun persona is probably a deliberate effort in her life to cover her anger issues. As a social worker & counselor, I'm tempted to agree.

"I guess I am super unpopular, lol I didn't like Team Fun, like you said Floyd is fine.. but Becca just not my cup of tea."
You're not the only one. I like Floyd, and MOST of the time Becca is fine. But I hate when racers are nasty with people from other countries. When she said she wanted to smash that egg in the guy's face, I feel like he's thinking "God these Americans are awful". I understand frustration...but she was feeding into the stereotype of Americans.
