Beauty & The Geek: Flame Broiled Geeks

All apologies for this going up so late: everything should be on schedule next week. But it was a tough week for beauties, including yours truly and the gals on Beauty and the Geek (like that transition?) Seriously, though, didn't it seem like another week where the beauties' work seemed tougher than the guys'? The firefighting challenge definitely appeared physically grueling but having to sort through trash while doing math and then answering more arithmetic questions (as compared to trivia about heroes) seemed much harder. Then again, the girls looked kind of cute in their trashwoman outfits.
Joe became slightly more palatable this episode as he stood up for Tara after the girls wanted to terrorize her in her sleep. Of course, him spitting on the floor in front of Randi after she blew up in front of him was less than charming, but nobody seemed to be taking Randi's side, including Tara and also, notably, Greg. Also, I could have done without Joe's bromides about all the various battles that him vs. Randi were similar to. As my fiance noted, "There's nothing worse than an over-confident geek."
