So glad JV&J got to stay. My favs are JVJ and Oh Brother! Do not like Flo. Do not like Ian. Very neutral on twins.

Nope, it was a non-elimination round with two more of them to come. This was a fast-paced episode all the way!

Well, I've realized who my favorite team is now. It was a toss-up between Oh Brother and JV&J for quite a while. But when it was just the two of them, and I momentarily forgot that it was probably a non-elimination round, I was rooting for JV&J to make it. I'm *very* glad that we'll get to see both teams next week, though.

My opinion of Zach has really gone up. He is strong and supportive, and rarely snaps back at Flo. Sometimes I think it'd be better if he did stand up for himself, but I guess it's just his nature...kudos to him for keeping his cool. I have to wonder if he really cares too much about Flo and Drew, though. They never show him commenting on his relationship with Flo much, so he might not even be particularly interested. I really wouldn't blame him, either...based on her behavior on this race, she's not much of a prize.

Didn't like Ken & Gerard's anti-twin thing going. It's fine if they think the twins are their biggest competition, but they seemed a tad more nasty than usual. I still love them, though. :)

Ian and Teri are still despicable. I REALLY didn't have to see Ian grabbing her behind and adjusting her pants, either.

Switzerland is a great stop for TAR. So pretty.

When Ken and Gerard talk about Ian, I crack up :)

And when they saw the goats, what a riot..

Ian is a basic jerk. Teri is his wife, not a grunt in basic training.. he warns her about a fence but doesn't just hold it for her, which would only speed them up. <>.

Oh and if Ian ever comes to Orange County, he will be limited to Stanton.

I was surprized to see that John Vito and Jill did not get a 30 min penality for not going together. It was not a roadblock and I was under the impression that both members of a team had to get to the point together. Clever move though!

I am expecting to see, next week, that other teams complained about this and next week will see the host explain that they must leave 30 mins after Gerald and Gerard.

Terry and Ian must be horrified as they watch the show and see themselves labeled The Bickering Couple and view their dynamic on tape.

I nearly peed my pants when Ken & Gerard were running back to put in their combination and saw Ian's backpack lying on the ground outside - "Oh, Ian & Terri are here!" I was howling!!!

I too was confused as to how JV&J can get away with not doing the hike up the falls together - next week should be interesting!

On a side note - this is the only reality show that my boyfriend likes, and all through last night, every time that Ian & Terri were on the screen he would shout "Would you two lose already?!" Made me laugh everytime!

If Teri and Ian had watched the Mole, they would have known the smart thing would be to guess the number of trees with red ribbons ( they know about how many there were from counting) and put in numbers close to what they had. Why on earth would they run back to re-count.

Fruitbat

I thought the same exact thing, Dogdoc. It made no sense.

Great point Dogdoc! I didn't even think about that!

I think most of the teams (if not all) went back to re-count the trees didn't they? The whole time I was thinking that it would have made sense to just try to vary the number of trees if they knew the 12 from the statue and the 78 from clock thing. I was also wondering why no one added the clock numbers backwards from largest to smallest. It seems easier to me to start 12+11+10 etc. and just keep adding the smaller numbers onto your total, but maybe you panic under the pressure especially when they were all so close.

Hey Mombat! I'm planning on marrying him - glad you approve!

I actually added the clock up starting at 12:
12+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11= 78

I guess I'm a little weird that way!!!

I also think JV&J should get a penalty for not going together to get the clue. I guess we will see what happens next week. Here is what the CBS Amazing Race website said about the incident:

"At the same time, John Vito & Jill arrived at the Rheinfall and hopped on a boat behind the other Teams. At the island with the route marker, there is room for only one boat at the landing. Jill realized this and asked her guide to wait at the landing with their boat while John Vito climbed up the rock to get the next clue. This meant that the other boat, holding all of the belongings of the other four Teams, would need to wait to pick the others up until John Vito & Jill's boat left. On the situation, Zach said, "The rest of the Teams were standing there facing Jill and that was kind of a weird moment, a little face-off." On the tension, Jill commented, "I think that the other Teams were just pissed that we outfoxed them." For her quick thinking, John Vito & Jill took the lead as their boat headed back to shore."

I cannot believe that the twins didn't learn from the first episode to NEVER leave your stuff in/on a vehicle of any sort.. or a boat. If they had had their packs I think they would have been able to boat-jack Jill's craft.

I am rooting for J/JV but it seems like they should get some penalty :(

Sea..ROTF!!! ..Ian limited to Stanton!! LOL!!!

Personally, I don't think a penalty should be incurred. It was a bonehead move to leave their packs(other 4 teams) in the boat to begin with. Jill saw an opportunity and took it. Unless there were specific instructions in the clue stating that both team members had to retreive the clue, it was just another instance of Jill showing off her big brain and her moxy. And JV/J were the only team to catch a cab to the pitstop as well and they almost caught K/G. That's one smart girl, and to JV's credit he seems to know it.

I'd have to say this episode was the best of the season so far. And although I am a Survivor fan, TAR is the more entertaining show this fall.

Still rooting for John and Jill.

Oh, I don't want J/J to be penalized, just think in the past both team members have had to get a clue unless otherwise specified.

We get two hours of TAR next week!!

I thought that both members had to do everything together except when otherwise instructed. I don't want JV&J to be penalized, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were. I can't wait for next week!!!!

Djgirl does a happy dance as she leaves the room in anticipation of next week...
