Oh, and still another good episode. Nice tasks. Just don't like the freebee award.
I wonder why they do them now. Season 12 was only the 1st time they have had a linear leg since season 1 (which had one), ever since every seasons has had one or two. And while I like the idea of teams being able to keep their lead from a previous leg (Imagine how some of the teams from seasons 2-10 could have done), but it really does limit the drama.

Not a true Switchback, but this looks harder. Looks like identifying a particular musical piece being played in a room where many different pieces are being played simultaneously. The Ukraine task was just: find the sheet music, give it to someone to play.

^ I thought about that but an hours of operations really doesn't cost much more then a price of a sign.

True but the only place they could have placed it was either at the FF or the gondola (I don't think the gondola managers would like being told to keep closed after their normal opening hours), none of the locations justified a HoH other than those.
