DON'T. Don't even mention. It will come. Let it rest for now.

Zachary:
All hail the blondes!!!

It's kinda a low move on their part but It paid off eventually.
Besides, The blondes are generally one of the weakest teams so far.
it's only fair to give it to them
why risk having them going home and would have to give it to another team besides them

this leg is soooooo messy I can't even ...
what with the different placements at the starting point from last week's pit stop and the seven teams at the pit-stop and the mark-mallory going at it ...

the only highlights were the kids and Brenchel finally winning a leg. They're one of the only few teams in the race that hasn't won a leg at all. So pumped they finally won one. Hopefully more to come

Brenchel seemed to be more in sync this time around. Although I am not surprised because compared to season 20, Brenchel should have this season way easier than 20. I wish I could speak the same for Mark since he actually won a leg in 20.

And to be quite honest, I don't really see Mark and Mallory as a compatible team for this race. It was a failure attempt and oddly it just seemed so ... forced. Not that I dislike any of them, even Bopper, but I kinda wish they just cast another team. I feel like either they "really" want to have Mark in the race, or they "really" want to have Mallory in the race, but either's partner is eligible to come back... just saying...

Platrium:
Just like everyone else, I think this episode is better than the previous one, sad elimination though. :(
- I liked seeing the cowboys fall from first to last. Just like what I said last season about the Exes falling from 1st. Too bad the cowboys caught up. :lol: After all, it's a fun part seeing them climbing out of last.
- I only like seeing teams go from 1st to last when it doesn't get the team eliminated. For Team Kentucky unfortunately...  :torche
- Rb was nice with the kids around. :)
- Team Kentucky: Imo, I don't know who to blame, because their opinions are different. They bickered all the way to the detour. Just like everyone else said, they look good together as a hybrid team, but they don't work well. :( From last leg's stadium-trust thingy, all the way to this. It's sad seeing them go, but they really don't work together, since they didn't know each other much before the race. Their trust and communication to each other was... trainwreck.
- Honestly, I don't like Rachel, but she has changed, in a likable way. She's not a crybaby anymore unlike back then in TAR20. So I will now put away my hate from this team. Good thing that they finally won a leg too. Poor Margie & Luke though, but they've won at least a leg before, and it's their 3rd time anyway.
- On the other hand, the Country Singers: :groan: :tantrum (:;) I wanted them out :( and they should've gone home this leg instead of Team Kentucky. They way they begged for the EP: :gaah: Although the Cowboys made a smart move by giving it away to a weak team, I just don't like them surviving. I even want to question why they're in all-stars, but I just let it be, and I don't like them. :( From TAR22's u-turn alliance, and now this EP thing. :gaah: I wanted them out soon, but the spoilers... :( but I think what they'll be doing on the cowboys will be fun to watch. :lol:
- Meghan helping out Team JJ was a selfless move for an alliance, but they were fighting for last. It's a good thing that they didn't get eliminated for that, but it was a close one.
- The 7 teams on the mat almost simultaneously. :hrt: It was awesome, and record breaking! :conf: :hearts:
- The tasks were much better than last leg's. Too bad we didn't get to see the therapy detour.
- The placement changes during and between the tasks were great. They weren't linear. :)

RaceUntilWeDie:
Bringing in Mallory as Mark's partner was a terrible idea imo. Remember how Brook & Claire couldn't race because of Claire's pregnancy (though I believe they also couldn't race due to contract issues) - they didn't just drop Claire, they dropped the whole team and replaced them with someone else. Why couldn't they do the same? And bring in GARY & Mallory (who I'm sure would be nice enough to race for the same cause: Bopper.)

Someone else said it a few posts earlier than me, but I think both of them are to blame in this particular situation.

- They should check their stuff before taking off..? I know the Race is stressful and stuff, but how did neither of them notice that Mark's bag wasn't put into the trunk?
- I noticed that a majority of you guys love Mallory (who doesn't?! Well.. the Facebook casuals :res: ) and are taking her side because she brought up the fact that she has the medicine Mark needs and offered to buy a new backpack. But let's face it - what would happen to Mark when he needs a nice warm jacket in, [let's say,] the Arctic? And honestly I wouldn't want to race with one set of clothes for 20+ days straight.
- Mallory should have handed his bag to him at least.
- Mark was getting frustrated with EVERY single thing Mallory did which made me feel bad :(

Their communication was a big, big mess. This is obviously due to the fact that they are practically STRANGERS and don't have much trust in each other.

- If GARY had left his backpack lying around in the same situation,  I think Mallory would have understood a bit more. Mallory, as the daughter, would have listened or showed some understanding/care. Since Mark was her partner and NOT her dad, she fought for what she felt was right (to leave the bag and go).
- The same goes for Mark except I don't think he would have been so aggressive towards Bopper.

I feel sosososo bad that Mark and Mallory were put into this mess. :'(

Let's be real, those were two of the best teams in this "All Stars" cast. So I can't really blame them.

--- End quote ---

Or because they're eliminated

--- End quote ---

It was all about them because they were eliminated??? Because that would be crappy editing on the producers' part.
