RFF TAR 15 pick-em game
Coutzy:
I never heard Meghan say "I can't do this" before Sam mentioned he wanted to kill his brother.
What I did hear her say was a lot of things along the lines of not being able to do it, but I never heard the quote.
What we need to decide is whether we are taking it literally or not.
mswood:
Yeah I will be going over this episode very carefully right now, as there are several questions that are tricky.
I can answer one question. I don't consider drivers stopping to get directions or getting someone to lead them as being lost (after all I assume all racers are lost and don't know their destinations or how to get there). Now if they have to turn around to follow said directions or cab driver then I would count it, as it is changing their course of direction (ie they are going the wrong way).

Even though I'm probably nuking my chances of a good score (I picked 1 team to get lost) I think Herb and Nate mention that they have gone to the wrong farm and need to turn around.
