EP3 commentary

<< < (13/28) > >>

mswood:
Motorized bikes line the streets in Ouaga!
Our fine teams take taxis. Those who speak French have a leg up ... it's the only common national language in a country with over 40 tribal languages.
The blondes think they're going to get robbed!   
Mariana/Julia, on the other hand, are thrilled to be in Africa.

CLUE, Nathan/Jenn: Take a train to BINGO.
Phil: Teams must travel to the African Savanna, and they'll have to pay attention as the stops are called. The train will let them off in the middle of nowhere to search for their next clue.

mswood:
The blondes made the QUINTESSENTIAL AFRICAN MISTAKE: They are negotiating the price of their cab as they are getting out.
Shades of Slim Shady ... The driver follows them into the ticket office.   
Oops ... Ticket office is closed and the teams will party in Ouaga.
Gramps is enamored with the blondes.
Scene, a local - Drinking something that can either be coffee, coke, or alcohol to wake up.

Gawd, I love this place already!!   

WOW!!! Background Music from the TAR 5 trip to Tanzania! 

Shana/Jenn turned off by the "just beyond dirty" train. "Nothing is clean. I could not live this way."
Hendekea: I don't think the blondes are comfortable in Africa.
Az: Africa to me feels like home.
(Me too, Az.)

Love the RXR crossing sign!   

Voice: It's the middle of nowhere.
Teams get out, run looking for a cluebox.
Teams offer to help each other; some go it on their own.

CLUE, TK/Rachel. ROADBLOCK.
Who's worked up a thirst?
Phil: Toareg nomad task - milk a camel, fill a bowl up to the designated line. Then, drink it. If you spill the milk, you may not get enough from your camel to fill the bowl. IF YOUR CAMEL RUNS DRY YOU MUST WAIT UNTIL ALL TEAMS ARE FINISHED TO USE ONE OF THEIRS.

mswood:
What a wimp Lorena is! She shrieks as she touches the camel.
AAAAGH!!   

Azaria: This is strange. Grabbing a camel's breast?
Jennifer: COME ON, NATE!
Nate: I spilled some lilke a frikin idiot.
Jenn: Be careful. You're handling nipples!!
TK is workin' it. (Maybe he has practice handling nipples?)
Vixsin is doing fine. So is Gramps.
Lorena is nervous.
Jason: You can do it, baby!
Camel shakes its head side-to-side.
TK has enough milk. He drinks it. Then burps.   
TK conf: I had trouble getting it down. Grainy, sweet, warm ...

TK/Rachel, CLUE: Take four camels along a marked path to the next clue.
Phil: After handing off their camels to these nomads, they get the next clue.
