Yes it was a shocker indeed & a TAR historical event!
Grant Bowler of TAR Au said that you need 3 things to be successful in TAR:-
1. Get Fit
2. Think, think, think!
3. Teamwork
Now this "historical" team didn't do No. 2... What a waste! (:;)
The editing/camera work is not as good as TAR US as the camera man/assistant can be seen in the taxi & at the eating challenge. The only camera man I saw in the TAR US eps was just a shadow - that's how good they are! :tup:
I liked the way the racers greet each other, and saying "TQ" to the boat women. Maybe it's the Asian value. Way to go, racers! :yess:

Ep 3 Recap - One false step leads to anotherStarting time:
#1: Cousins 6:21
#2: Actor 6:22
#3: Married couple 6:24
#4: Pro travelers 6:26
#5: Young girls (best friends) 6:28
#6: Châus 7:15
#7: Brothers 7:45
#8: Athletic couple 7:57
#9: Co-workers 9:08
#10: RiMi: 9:09
Route Info: Travel to Mount Ky Lan at Ninh Binh province. Here find the next clue in the marked area. You have 680,000 VND for this leg of the race. They didn't show how teams traveled to Ninh Binh, probably by taxis. They had to climb to the ... (don't know the word in English :duno:) on top of the mountain as in the picture to pick up their next clue.
Teams found their next clue in the following order:
#1: Actor (+1)
#2: Cousins (-1)
#3: Married couple (=)
#4: Pro travelers (=)
#5: Young girls (=)
#6: Châus (=)
#7: Brothers (=)
#8: Athletic couple (=)
#9: Co-workers (=)
#10: RiMi (=)
Detour: Eat of Play
In eat, teams make their way to a restaurant and eat 40 plates of cơm cháy (crispy rice?). They were excited about this detour (some hadn't eaten yet) but shocked when they saw what they had to eat. Actors, pro travelers, RiMi changed detour immediately (Richie thought it was cơm chay - vegetarian food). Brothers and athletic couple left halfway. Only cousins and young girls stayed. BIG MISTAKE (:;)
In play, teams make their way to a goat farm and play bịt mắt bắt dê (translation: blindfolded catch goat, blind man's buff in English) literally. One team member is blindfolded with a colored silk, directed by their teammate, have to catch a goat with the exact color and bring it to cage to receive the next clue. Teams had to work together to complete the task. Married couple, Châus, Co-workers This is by far the funniest detour in the race, especially when Richie grabbed others people :lol3:
Teams finished the detour in the following order:
#1: Actors (=)
#2: Married couple (+1)
#3: Pro travelers (+1)
#4: Châus (+2)
#5: RiMi (+5)
#6: Co-workers (+3)
#7: Brothers (=)
#8: Athletic couple (=)
#9: Cousins (-7) (when it was dark)
#10: Young girls (-5)
Route Info: Find the old dock at Trang An Ecotourism, pick a boat and paddle to Tropical Almond Dock to pick up your next clue. You must put on the life vest.
#1: Actors (=)
#2: Married couple (=)
#3: Pro travelers (=)
#4: Châus (=)
#5: RiMi (=)
#6: Co-workers (=)
#7: Brothers (=)
#8: Athletic couple (=)
#9: Cousins (=)
#10: Young girls (=)
Roadblock: Who wants to test their patience?
One team member must climb the steps to the top of the mountain, where a young monk will tell them the task. The task was count the steps (trolling? :lol3:). There were 214 steps to count, someone spoke to the speaker to distract the teams. Baggio, Trâm, Long, Châu M., Mimi, Bình, Chung, Hoàng, Anh & Thủy performed this roadblock. Finish order:
#1: Actors (=)
#2: Married couple (=)
#3: Pro travelers (=)
#4: Châus (=)
#5: RiMi (=)
#6: Co-workers (=)
#7: Brothers (=)
#8: Athletic couple (=)
#9: Cousins (=)
#10: Young girls (=) (used Express Pass)
Route Info: Go back to the old dock and take a taxi to the next pit stop, Thai Vi Temple. On the way back the docker will paddle for you. Follow the safety rules. The last team to check in may be eliminated.
Placing:
#1: Actors (=) (CURSED)
#2: Married couple (=)
#3: Pro travelers (=)
#4: Châus (=)
#5: Brothers (+2)
#6: Athletic couple (+2)
#7: Co-workers (-2)
#8: RiMi (-3) (came in 5th but received a 30-minute penalty because Mimi took off her life vest when they were still on the boat)
#9: Cousins (=)
#10: Young girls (=) (Eliminated) :groan:
Well, like they say in Vietnam: Never Give Up = NGU :'(

Well, it was some kind of agreement between the cousins and the girls. They said they wouldn't use the express pass at the detour :duno:
