Ep 9 East Coast SHOW updates and commentary **please read post 1!!**

I will disagree on that point. Mark had a difficult time with the sequence of dance moves. He was making mistakes on moving his body in the correct direction. I did not think he got a mercy pass on his 12th attempt. I thought he earned it. I doubt that it will matter at this point, as my thoughts on the imminent elimination of Mark and Bopper are posted in another thread (#1040 in spoilers).

I think they did that for all teams. That's how the do it in Bollywood movies.

I noticed that as well and didn't notice it for the others, maybe it just wasn't shown to us. ??? I was so happy that Mark tried again and that the dance instructor and dancers were so happy for him when he finally got it right. 

Mark looked haggard when he was talking with Phil. Both of them are in bad shape at this stage of the race. I love these two, I wish they had gotten further.

theschnauzers:
I'd have to go back and watch again, but IIRC, the editors did not use that particular angle for showing the "coaching" the dance troup during any of the other attempts; but from what I've seen in other contexts it isn't all that unusual in choreographed stage dances to have that, just like in choral music performances or an orchestra there would be a director to keep everyone on the same pace.

It did not look to me that Mark got any pity from that particular task master; the taskmasters for all three tasks were quite strict in this episode.

Close, but no cigar. My information says that the ARA3 pitstop was on Bolgatty Island, but at the Bolgatty Palace. That is clearly different from the Bolgatty Island Resort, which is where the AR20 ep. 9 pitstop is.

In each season, teams were instructed to go to Bolgatty Palace. One of the Pitstops is in front of the building and the other is behind it.
