I completely agree that there's a lot more to Josee than what meets the eye. In the episode where Jacques mentions the lamp, Josee looks up as she says she would win for her mother. This was pretty much a sign that hinted Josee's mother as possibly having passed away. This is even further supported if you think Josee and Jacques are based off as Jesse and James, as Jesse's mother was also said to be dead.

I think that like many of the other characters, Josee was shaped by her family and surroundings, which taught her that the only important thing was to win. Even though she says her mother's name with a bitter tone, she probably stills looks up to her and her achievements. I think that even though she and her mother are distant, Josee still wants to try to impress her, much like Monica and her mom if you watch Friends.

She and Jacques were definitely one of my top teams in RR and I really hope they make an appearance in another season
