If I can't start following this better by Episode 3, I'm going to have to quit wasting my time on TAR. The pace at which the show travels and the rate at which the closed captioning lags behind are making this pretty impossible for me to follow and thus enjoy. :(

Gay couple talks about seeing people cut in line so they have changed their mind about playing the game honorably. Looks like teams are catching up with each other at the train station. David and Jeff sled down the hill. Everyone is caught up. Gay couple calls father and son Wheezer and Geezer and talks about how they bought tickets for the air traffic controllers. Russell and Cindy have finished the sled ride and Tian and Jaree have just left the pit stop. Gay couple is blocking the doors to the train station.

tian/jaree leave at 3:43

monica/sheree telling r/c that the other teams want to get rid of them. r/c saying that the clue didn't say 1st come 1st served.

the older guys saying that others were there before them. r/c saying that the older guys broke in line at lax.

There is an arguement about how the father and son left their place in line and left a backpack at the door but Reichen and Chip say that doesn't save their space. Someone finds that there is a bus to the other train station with the earlier train so they all rush to get on the bus.

Sorry, Herm, it's hard enough to follow for the hearing people. It must be very frustrating for you!

cindy wondering if russell is the partner for her. he is talking with other players making decisions, but not with her.

kelly/jon and tian/jaree are the two teams not on the train with the others. they caught a different train. i think they are in a better position than the other teams.

Tian and Jaree are bickering. Kelly and Jon and Tian and Jaree missed the bus to the other station. They wonder where the others went when they don't see them on the train.

What just happened with the models? Are they alone on a train? I'm confused.

Hermi.. we just love having you around.. I hope it gets better, but it IS fast-paced.

there are 2 stations they can take the train from. The majority of the teams took the bus to the farther away station, but it has an earlier train. K/J and T/J are at the closer station, but the train left later.

Mak1, it is, I won't deny that. I'm about to just shrug it off and go back to Super Mario World or do The Grind. Oh well. I'm going to log off and see if I can follow it better without the computer as a distraction as well. If not, I dunno. Maybe I'll give it one more episode, but I really feel like I am spinning my wheels.

Why do Tian/Jaree bicker so much? I've never had a friendship like that......thank goodness, it wouldn't have lasted very long.

Nine teams took the earlier train. Only 2 teams are on the later train.

There was about a 31/2 to 4 hour time difference between 1 place and last place.

i think russell/cindy are arguing right now.

they are all in venice running to get the clues.

detour...waterway or pathway.

waterway can only use map to steer gondolas. cannot get directions from the locals. pathway have to walk but can get directions. looks like veryone is taking waterway.

milli/chuck decided to walk

First 9 teams find the Detour on the bridge. Waterway - take a gondola navigating with only a map to a small plaza. Walkway - walk along the streets and can ask locals for help. Gondola can not ask for help. Millie and Chuck decide to walk because so many others have taken the boats.

amanda/chris are in 7th place right now. dave/jeff 1st, monica/sheree 4th, russell/cindy 2nd, reichen/chip 3rd

Chris says he will be mean to win. Millie and Chuck are running. David and Jeff are ahead in the gondolas. Russell and Cindy are 2nd. David and Jeff get stuck in a small passageway which allows last place Chris and Amanda to get into first place. Chuck and Millie reach the clue first. They must get to a party at 5PM.
