Amazing Race Aside S22E5

I believe this photo is an attempt to catch them giving  their look of "fiery righteousness", but if anything needs a Meme or a Gif or whatever those crazy kids create for the internet nowadays, the two seconds they gave to the camera during the episode would be it.  That said, here's my Amazing Race Aside for the fifth episode ...

PITHIEST COMMENT OF THE NIGHT:  With apologies for the fact that I don't have the traditional symbols ... "vinh quang thay the he thanh nien chung ta"!

HOW DO THEY DO THAT?  BEHIND-THE-SCENES REQUEST:  Maybe not so much a request than pointing out a missed opportunity -- but come on producers, couldn't you have gotten the B-52's to be performing in the background of the B-52 memorial?

IMAGE I WON'T SOON FORGET:  Beyond the moped madness or the aforementioned look of fiery righteousness, I'd have to say that I was surprised that the young Viet socialist performing kids all shared the look of local Chi-town hipsters.  So it looks like we've exported THAT phenomenon now!

LET ME JUST SAY THIS:  If everyone joins together to fight the alliance because alliances are bad -- then you've just created a second de-facto alliance.  Can't we just play the game with individual integrity and stop this clique-iness?  I know it works for other shows -- but keep it out of this one, please!
