THE CONSERVATIVE HIPSTERS

It took me about 1.5 seconds to figure out the men would lose. The second the big DT said the word "fashion" I knew Mosaic was going into the Boardroom of Horrors. Give me a break. These guys were outgunned from the get go. The Apex vixens are extremely well dressed, obviously fashion conscious and at least have a clue. The only thing the guys had was their head up their collective asses.

So, I'm not as disappointed as much as I normally would be. Mosaic was doomed from the beginning. But they didn't help themselves. From drooling over the models to my man Raj acting like a schoolkid with ADD constantly asking questions, it was just bad. So, here are my main thoughts:

• What's with the King Henry VIII entrance the DT makes each episode? I know he looks like he has some sort of "hair crown", but please. Trumpets?
• John (the PM) was brutal. He sat there with a thumb up his butt while Kelly drove the team. But that paled in comparison to him begging for his proverbial life when it looked like he was going to get wacked. Have some respect for yourself, man! The hostages in Iraq had much more intestinal fortitude than you and they are looking death in the face. I love DT toying with him saying "Can't I be a witness too?", and making him admit he made a mistake.
• Raj, Raj, Raj. His "colourful" personality, which I love, was a real problem on this task. Maybe the gals had it right--segregate the problem child from the rest of the class. He might have a flare for fashion (and, apparently, German) but someone must dress him because he was lost out there.
• Those fashions were straight up hideous. On both sides. I know they are the clothing equivalent of a concept car, but my god. Shoulder capes? I thought one of the models wore the shirt as a pair of pants by mistake.

John the Beggar

Anyway, the girls deserve the win. They knew what they were talking about and floated right through the task. I'm sure the guys couldn't be that upset with missing Cirque de Soliel at the Hugo Boss party. I'm sure they saw enough men in brightly coloured tights for one day (besides Raj).
