I'm watching on DVR and they changed clothes in India and I had to double and triple check that I wasn't watching another season (I have a couple unfinished seasons on my dvr)

E: drat, I'm not exactly inclined to like the dad and daughter team and they're being lovely about this but drat they're kind of hyper competent at this game so far.

also: "OUT OF TOWNERS!" rules.

I wonder how long the hay thing took because army bros had enough time to forget their book and still come in fourth and dad daughter self-speed bumped and didn�t lose.

Yeah haha the editing at the very end made me think there actually was a point to all of Anna Leigh's yelling, plus episode name, made me think they were actually at risk but they were just the slowest of their little tour group. And if she didn't want to be last on that group she could've stopped having everyone follow? I wonder if having places matter beyond last night incentivized some more competition when you get to weird clusters like that.

There was a shot that I as a passive viewer thought managed to catch the last two just on opposite sides of the last bridge, but I went back and looked at it and it just happened to be people dressed kind of similar.

Editors/camera people are working hard this season.

This has been a good season. Also it's really funny that they made Anna Leigh dad yelling sound way worse in the previews than it actually was. Or maybe they edited it down. It's definitely been worse earlier episodes.

I'm pretty interested in the locations in that wiki. Could be seen as limiting I guess gut it's gonna feature a lot of places they rarely go.

That lasso thing ruled. Everyone did it differently and the talent of the rope guys was very clear to me. Like check it, #7 uses some incredible control to get some absolutely awful jumps through the center.

I feel for the last place team. That is a nightmare to have to do that 20 point backup thing.

drat I really want to just get in my car and head to Mexico lol.

We at the very least would have handled the lucha segment better.

I�m relaxed extremely not relaxed.

Lol the decline in the strictness of the face paint judge after like team 4 was exponential. But couple in pink were doing screen quality makeup.

Y�all were right this game area was very small, they walked by that parking garage in every leg.

This looked like one of the most physically demanding legs in a long time. Usually it�s straight line running and like maybe one leg has a single staircase component. But this place was all hills and stairs.

I swore they said no switching allowed when they read the clue but I guess since it was the last two teams it didn�t matter.

I feel like the jeep thing would not be a big deal if it was just getting stuff on there but having to match it made that an event that was going to take an hour at least . That was like a 20-30 minute cooking challenge.

There was some really obvious ADR where one of the twins mouthed �adhd� but they replaced it with �attention to detail.�

Pleasant episode all things considered though.

No switching was in reference to the water taxis, you can't switch your boat (which is why mom/son were stuck waiting for their boat to start again).

Ah, that makes sense.

I was mad when the firefighters switched because that cbs production library generic breakdance song was driving me crazy. But drat what a comeback.

I really loved the ending sequence.

Not allowed to run or walk on the escalator, dog gets it.

It knows the rules.

Ricky and Cesar briefly struggle and still end up crushing the leg.

Although the firefighters might be doing better than them at the challenges but just can�t get out of their own way. Maybe Kramer was right about the navigation skills of firefighters.

Ready for the "Dream Team" to go home, they do not appear to be having any fun, nor do they seem to like each other at all. Cops can go home too

I'm so annoyed, they have a team from Tucson a few years ago, and they 're border patrol, they have a team from Ontario California and they're cops.

The fingerprint thing looked impossible but it would have been fun to see someone try it. Oh well.

The soccer thing was funny because the opposing team definitely weren�t trying to keep people there too long and were basically setting up the goals for the people in their second attempts.

My favorite part of the episode was Rod, the former NFL receiver built like a truck, getting bumped and going "oh that's legal? Hell yes let's go" and just destroying everyone in his path

Yeah it was really great.

Danny calls Leticia Chi Chi which is an interesting nickname in a spanish speaking country.

It seems some of the things they did last season which was filmed after this season was a response to this season, such as the forced public uturn votes.

Most interesting thing from the last one to me was that it seemed like most of the people who never welded before did a lot better because they had to actually pay attention to the instruction. Some sort of life lesson there that I refuse to learn.

I still don�t understand what the firefighters were even doing. Was their strategy to just drive aimlessly until they found the right plaza? They didn�t seem to ask anybody until they ended up in a restricted stockyard and even then the guys just said �no, this isn�t a plaza�

The implication to me they were just driving from place to place called "plaza" was very funny.

That was such a bummer way for a team to go out. I really wish they had done something about it.

Rod just pushing that car out of the mud was pretty badass.

Lol that one taxi driver just driving in a random direction. Didn�t seem to make a difference though.

I zoned out the first roadblock but enjoyed the rest of this one.
