TAR 22 Ep 4 East Coast SHOW updates and commentary **Please read the rules**
starrynight:
She should have put her hand over the image so they couldn't see it.
And the Bora Bora leg may have been a nice location, but I need more than that to enjoy this program as it's meant to be a race. This leg was the best so far as it had race excitement.

Connor <//////////3 cheaters never win, not the entire race. DISLIKE. :lol3:

The issue was not using the Express Pass at the beginning of the ROADBLOCK. It was too late then. However, it should have been used instead of switching to the Sandy bottom DETOUR, as that took unnecessary time. John would certainly have been ahead of Bates/Anthony at that time and maybe also some other teams. There would have been more correct surfboards to find, so he would have done so much earlier and saved his team from elimination.
Why didn't Jessica and John do that? We will have to read the interviews coming out this week to find out.

Oh good no more Meghan & Cheyne TAR22 version (they're not really like them, they just reminded me of them). I honestly couldn't tell if John was stating that principle of his because he fully believes in it or he's first being positive and then when Jessica told him they were last he started saying things like 'I'm not gonna give up' and not show any frustration and keep forcing a smile all the way to the end. I mean, it's just hard to watch because I do respect them as racers but John, as the one visibly dominating the team's decisions, wasn't being realistic/strategic enough.
Connor lost a bit of respect for me, maybe he wanted to win a bit too much, but maybe that's just the heat of the moment.
I'm just wondering why the preview for next eppy show Mona & Beth and Joey & Meghan as targets. :(
On the whole, Bora Bora and then Bali? <333
starrynight:
But a team was still at the roadblock when they arrived, so they could still have used the EP if they had done so straight away and saved themselves?
Do they have to have each teammate do an equal amount of roadblocks now (which I think is the better rules)? I suspect not, which means the father and son could survive longer than you might expect.
Also it seemed to me that they were given alot of info as to which detour to choose, but very little information as to what the roadblock entailed.
BuuYaa:

maybe Chuck told John something like "Hey John you know Bates&Anthony haven't arrived yet."
LOL That would be so epic should've made the cut had it happened
I adore Chuck&Wynona
but technically, only Jessica knew they were the last two because Wynona told her. And she was not at the same place with John. John didn't know and Chuck did. he screwed him a little telling John there's one team that hasn't arrived to make sure JJ not using the EP until he&Wynona checked in.
Well I didn't think Chuck will do something like that but if he did, :lol3: :lol3: :lol3:
When John first went back to Jessica, he did think and say that there's one team behind them (and that was after Chuck&Wynona already checked in). I mean who would've told him that if it wasn't Chuck? The only other teams JJ encountered at the RB was Chuck&Wynona
What JJ should've done was actually Expresspassing the Detour as Jessica wished. They would've gotten 5th place. They would BE with Joey&Meghan in the RB who would most likely help them.

I think the alliance is noticed by the other teams...
Or maybe Mona&Beth-Joey&Meghan antagonizing themselves with every other teams ala Nick&Starr-Ken&Tina. They would ONLY help each other, even screw another teams
At least the alliance of Trey&Lexi-Natalie&Nadiya only antagonizing Abby&Ryan LOL
Or maybe Mona&Beth-Joey&Meghan want to use the U-turn but they're not telling on whom. The other teams heard them. So that's why Jennifer said "We just have to get there before Joey&Meghan and RollerDerbies"
