Amazing Race's Liz and Marie: Our Cabbie Ripped Us Off

Liz And Marie Kat Dennings and Janet Behrs aren't the only real 2 Broke Women on CBS. Liz and Marie Canavan did not possess a cent for their title once they showed up in Bangkok around the Amazing Race after giving almost all their cash to some cabbie. So that they were instructed to walk the majority of the method to their destination, eventually resulting in their elimination. "I believe we could've swept up had we'd money," Liz informs TVGuide.com. "We could've taken cabs and also you saw how unpredictable that got." The twins ended up getting two free cab rides - although past too far - however they don't regret not requesting them earlier. Discover why - and why they love tigers.Amazing Race's Kaylani and Lisa: We are shocked Marcus didn't remember the answerHow far behind Jeremy and Sandy had you been?Jessica: Well, i was most likely an hour or so in it. An hour or so to 2 hrs. ... We understood i was last.Why everyone were so short on money when Laurence and Zac can afford two teams of bus tickets?Marie: Well, all of us began [the lower limb] with $186. Whenever we showed up at this bus station, our cab driver wanted $190 and that we did not have that. And that we needed to buy bus tickets which were $15 each, therefore we first gave him money and that he was like, "Not a way,Inch therefore we stated we'll get our bus tickets after which see what goes on. Therefore we bought our bus tickets and literally had nothing left to pay for him while he needed more. So there is a large fight about this. So finally the cab driver understood we'd nothing, so he was like, "Okay, whatever." ... He then was like, "OK, get in." I was like, "You simply fought against around for 30 minutes and today you are giving us a totally free ride towards the bus? What is?" The like public transit to Bangkok, i was like, "What exactly are we likely to do?" We literally didn't have money.Liz: We did not know what to anticipate in Bangkok. We did not know in which the bus terminal was, such as the countryside or even the city. I was so blinded.Why was your fare greater? Another teams which were proven only compensated $150. Was he ripping you off?Liz: He was totally ripping us off. Marie: It had been luck from the draw what your cab driver was prepared to take.Last leg, you stated you did not exchange your Indonesian money for Thai money. Did affecting your hard earned money stash?Marie: No. Whenever we showed up in Phuket, which was an issue, but when we began this leg, we'd the right money, to ensure that wasn't the problem. It had been literally getting screwed with that cab driver.Liz: Yeah, and that we understood we were not dead last. Our [bus] was at 8:15 and [Laurence and Zac's] was at 8, therefore it would be a 15-minute difference. ... But we did not leave until nearer to 9 because [we needed to settle with this cabbie].Amazing Race's Ron and Bill: We could not get over two bad cabbiesDid public transit really watch for you whenever you were negotiating using the cabbie?Liz: Yeah, so as we bought the tickets, public transit left and also the lady was nice enough to call public transit driver and also have him watch for us. Why you have towards the bus station so late? You saw Bill and Cathi in the tigers plus they got around the 5:30 bus.Liz: We do not know. We never got lost. I believe we left a lot after another teams that even if saw Bill and Cathi, the elephant ride still required a very long time and i believe that they are capable of making up time that people could not constitute.Jessica: We didn't have the opportunity to constitute time. We left last and that we could not get caught up. I had been thinking following the Spirit House [we'd an opportunity as we swept up with teams in the bus terminal, but when we've got there, i was like, "We are so screwed." But you are not going to stop.How lengthy have you walk in Bangkok prior to getting that free ride?Liz: We walked for, like, four hrs. We simply understood we could not quit. I was like, "We are just going to get for this Pit Stop regardless of what.Inch Each time we requested [how lengthy it might take] we'd get "three blocks" or "15 hrs." [Laughs] I was literally on the road and that we would stop motorbike people and request as we were going the proper way. They'd all laugh, like, "What's happening?Inch I believe all of them understood how far it had been. These were like, "Yeah, it's this way, but you are never gonna make it happen.InchYou've made a place of not pleading local people for the money.Jessica: Well, across the highway were the indegent plus they were also pleading for the money. Liz and that i aren't like this. We are able to suck this up. Even when we needed to walk, we are able to walk. I am not likely to request those who have nothing for something. It had not been worthwhile. ... Also, our father never drove. He was blind in a single eye, so he never got a license and that he walked literally everywhere. He was like, "Basically can perform it, it can be done.Inch He required the train every single day to operate and that we resided within the city, so he walked everywhere. Therefore we were really like, "OK, we are able to suck up and check out it."Amazing Race's Ethan and Jenna: We prefer SurvivorThen you saw a cabbie and requested him for any free ride?Liz: Yeah, first he chuckled within our face and was like, "Get free from here!" Finally, I believe he felt so harmful to us and that he required us midway.Marie: In the end were walking, we flagged cabs lower. Everybody just chuckled at us. It had not been like we were not asking [cabbies] the entire time, but simply not strongly. We do not regret that whatsoever. I was fine as we needed to walk completely. It was the luck from the draw finding both of these cabbies who'd drive us free of charge.So why do you like tigers a lot?Jessica: I really like them simply because they possess the nearest feelings to humans, so that they grieve like humans and they are so cute! I really like them! [Whenever we saw them] I dropped my backpack and merely went in to the water.Liz: Marie put herself in internet marketing! I was more happy compared to what they described on television. I was elated!Marie: Whenever we were driving we had an indication nevertheless "Baby tigers" and that we were really like, "No! Way!"Liz: Since which was area of the day, i was like, "It's not necessarily a bad day."What exactly are you so far?Jessica: I am working at Penny's From Paradise. It is a baby store in Lake Forest [Illinois]. And using for jobs. I've got a meeting with Blue Mix Blue Shield Wednesday.Liz: I am working like a marketing assistant at Great American Group.
