HOORAY FOR JOEBRINA'S NEL!

Let's see, fly to Singapore to wash a car, then go to the fountain of wealth, then fly to Bangkok? Wth?

Then we have the Roadblock, which doesn't even look like it's hard as hell.

Then we have one Detour which is painfully easy to finish, and the other which is delivering stupid eggs.

I hate this leg of TARA. It's like the worst episode of TAR i've ever seen in ages. Roll Eyes

I like their spirit

and how encouraging they are to each other

NEVER SAY DIE!!

This leg is kinda no-need-to-use-brain leg. You just go from 1 place to the other, do some physical work, find, find and find some places. Seems like the teams in ARA keep having difficulties at "finding" Angry

(e.g. look for a girl on a swing)

Exactly, i don't know what's with the all-female team curse. But if they don't make it to the final 3, then i'll probably root for Sandy/Francesca. Sad

Joebrina PWNZ!

I'm sure this leg was harder than it looked. Thailand looks like a challenge to race in.

Sandy and Francesca were the first to depart at 2.54.
Third place, Zabrina and Joejer departed at 3.15.
Andy and Laura, who were second but incurred a 92 minutes penalty departed at 6.05.
Huh

That's 3 hours later.......

Nice to see someone else on Mindanao for once.

Anyway, I think I pretty much love all the teams, but Zabrina/Joe Jer, Andy/Laura, and Sandy/Francesca are my top 3. Grin

Mr K, i'm not in Mindanao but i'm definitely going to visit there. I'm in Cebu now, taking a flight to Bacolod this afternoon..

Anyway, my final 3 picks are Andrew/Seyon, Andy/Laura and Joe Jer/Zabrina.

Howard/Sahran and Mardy/Marsio will take up 6th and 5th place respectively.

Here's what i think the order will be -

6th - Mardy/Marsio
5th - Howard/Sahran
4th - Sandy/Francesca (NOOOOO)
3rd - Andrew/Seyon
2nd - Andy/Laura
1st - Joe Jer/Zabrina (It seems impossible but it's good to believe in what you hope is going to happen) Grin

I didn't like how they have a half-leg of Singapore!

The Thailand leg looks VERY difficult! I like the Detour options, because they "divide" teams into the physically strong teams (they'll do the eggs Detour) and the "smart" team (they'll do the bacon Detour). Although, from what we've seen, the teams who chose Bacon weren't so, um, "directionally intelligent" (a new phrase lmao).

I was hoping for a non-elim and it was good that the episode delivered. Dang would have loved to see the M&M's eliminated, although they are funny and entertaining. hehe

i gave up on that in 2 minutes and downloaded the torrent, it kept tearing and jumping so i just downloaded the torrent, that dude is hopeless at uploading, theres somebody else who uploads as well but hes been busy and hasn't uploaded

That episode was pretty lame, i was really quite disapointed with the bell challange i thought it would have been like TAR6's unlock the lock challange

Sandy and Francesca are going to get eliminated if they keep getting lost like that..

I belive Andy and Laura got to the pit stop at 4:30 something not 3:00

I think it was harder than it looked, it was just that they probabaly shortened it so that we could watch the racers run around like chickens with their heads cut off while trying to find out where they are supposed to go.
