Man, the twins aren't too bright.

I'm liking Chip and Kim more and more. Just like the cousins they seem really grateful for the experience. It always bothers me when other teams are rude to the locals. Chip and Kim and the cousins never seem to be.

Yell - I'm not sure what happened to the brother's leg. I was going to say he fell during one part of the race but then realized that was one of the bowling moms so I'm not sure what happened to him or if it was just a pre-existing condition.

I think he just had weak knees and they got beat up in the race.

"On the next episode of TAR, Brandon and Nicole argue with the locals while Chip and Kim befriend them. And Colin and Christie and Charla and Mirna get physical."

I want to keep rooting for Myrna and Charla....but I have got to where I can not stand Myrna (who is down right rude IMHO) and I think her rudeness rubs off on Charla.

And then I see it differently. I think she is justified in her rudeness, cuz Colin is rude to her first... I don't see Charla as rude at all...

I so want to like Charla and Myrna. And I find myself rooting for them even after Myrna says the craziest things. Myrna isn't my favorite player. I think she blows alot of things out of proportion. I don't know if it's for attention or what. But the thing is, I just can't keep myself from rooting for them LOL. Now Colin is just plain rude and I don't care for him at all. I think he's going to be tough to beat though. Chip and Kim have emerged to be my favorite team I think.

I like Chip, he seems to be good people. He will take more from this experience than anyone else playing.

Chip and Kim didn't do well in the beginning but now it seems they are finally getting into the swing of things. I really like them. They are respectful and low key, not in-your-face at all!!

Chip and Kim are my favs as well. They seem like such grounded people.
Kami and Karli are where they are strictly by luck, they seem so disoriented. I was a little surprised no one seemed to know what a scarab was, had no one seen The Mummy?
Charla and Myrna, what can I say, Colin did not choose to tell them in any sort of rational manner that their belongings were in the cab and they had not yet paid, he chooses to just attack, imo. I do not like this guy at all, but Myrna does tend to grate. I love that C&C lost their lead. Yahoo for the bowling moms, glad they are still in it.

I disagree. I think M/C (most especially Mirna) are rude and disagreeable. C/C hadn't released their cab and their stuff was still in it. Although they might have been more pleasant about it M/C haven't shown themselves to be at all pleasant or reasonable. I probably would have been rude to them myself (and I try never to be rude). Although C/C aren't my favorite team I would like to see them go much farther than M/C. (I would like to see Charla go further but with a different partner but what the heck, you can't pick your relatives!)

But one of the best moments on the show was Charla in the pyramid tunnel...you could tell how pleased she was to be in a position where she had the advantage. Kudos to her!

Yeah!! Thanks - I missed the last 5 minutes!!

My take, I'm wondering is it partly because Myrna is from New York? And that's just part of it? Plus isnt she an attorny? Maybe in a kill or be killed kinda manner, she stands up for herself, it comes off as really brash, but then I'm with you Colin is like egging her on for a fight, and then he can sit back and gloat, I think he instigates a lot of that - just my take, maybe because I want to like Myrna, and maybe outside the game I would like Myrna a lot more than I would ever like Colin???

Yep, Colin does instigate stuff and he was wrong in the cab deal.

Jasper is rright, Colin chose to attack and didn't try to be reasonable.

Everyone seems to like Charla, but on the Early Show, Marshall & Lance specifically talked about Charla and how much they didn't like her. (They didn't like either of them.)

Is anyone else bothered by how the poor taxi cab drivers are treated by these teams. If I were the driver, I'd dump them - being respecful to the drivers and not stressing them would probably be a better tactic. The teams are visitors and should treat the locals better.

Oh, and I actually like Ch and M - they are so funny - they crack me up every time I see them.

I was astonished that so many - was it every team?! - didn't know what a scarab was.

With only two FFs available this season, I can't fault Colin & Christie for using the one last week. While it's always an advantage to have the FF available, if they're not in position to use it, it won't do them any good anyway. And they can still use the Yield after all. They're a very strong team and Colin's hotheadness aside, I like them.

I felt sorry for the goats and cringed at Linda & Karen hitting up the tourists for money (not that they had a choice).

I was happy to see Kim do a Roadblock although I do think she should have helped Chip get the goats off the boat as well. (Even though you will smell like a goat the rest of the day once you touch one, lol). Well, maybe she did but I just saw her standing off to the side. This team is my favorite for likeability and I also think they have what it takes to win the Race.

I know TAR4's Kelly irked a lot of people (including me at times) but I really liked her energy and enthusiasm. So far none of the female players on this season's co-ed teams appear to be a match for her.

Kami and Karli frustrate me too but it was nice to see them finally make a decent showing. They looked so happy!

I never cared for the brothers but was touched at how Lance supported Marshall, carrying both their packs & doing all the tasks. And they kept a sense of humor about their situation too.

Maybe not knowing what a scarab is was a good thing, the scarabs I have are much smaller than that large one they had, I would have been sifting through everything.

Regardless of how rude Mirna is, Colin should never push her like he did at the ticket counter. Looks like it gets worse between these two teams next week. I wonder how far they can go without getting penalized?

I missed the show! :-( Thanks to everyone for posting!

I know it's the nature of the race, but I am disappointed for the team that had the 7 hr. lead taken down to a 40 min. lead because they had to wait for something to open.
