Okay. I didn't get to see last week's ep of TAR 10 until today, so, double dip time. TAR Asia heads to New Zealand, while TAR 10 goes to Barcelona by way of Casablanca.
TAR Asia in NZ:
1. What, couldn't they have just written on the clues where the kid on the swing was? I mean, so many people searched all over the town (Davenport) for an hour when s/he was waiting practically right outside the terminal. The heck?
2. Prashant and Sahil get penalized out of the race for hitchhiking, during all that fruitless searching for a kid on a swing. They b!tch a lot about getting penalized over this: "Big deal!"
3. Detour: Rugby, and Rigging. Man, it's hard to kick a rugby ball...
4. Roadblock: Skyjumping off some tower in Auckland (while the other uses [product placement alert!] a Sony camera to film it... one team didn't even get the jumping on the camera, but got no penalty). The preview shows a bungee jump next week. I bet some racer is going to say, "Not another big jump!"
5. And after 4 straight 7th place finishes, AND a bum knee on one contestant, Andy and Laura finally do Thailand proud and finish 1st. Whee!
TAR 10 in Casablanca and Barcelona:
1. Camel eating! I asked my mom, and she says that it's actually a luxury food in the middle east. Yet it seems normal in Morocco. Hmm...
2. Quotes: "Better than fish eyes" "Hot giant chick"
3. Tomato fight! And read Miss Alli's take on Rob and Kim's tomato meltdown (while the *lyns don't have any issues).
4. Meanwhile, the other teams carry huge-ass costumes to some square. Yawn...
5. Rob and Kim win the leg despite the meltdown, the *lyns become the first ever all-girl team in the final 3 (and they also did it without winning a single leg!), while James and Tyler beat Dustin and Kandice (even w/o the penalty) to complete the final 3.
