TAR 24 East Coast EP 3 SHOW updates and commentary **please read the rules**
Jobby:
Can I say, when Dave and Connor abandoned their raft, and then ran back to deliver their items, should they have ran all the way back and used the raft to go all the way down the river?
Was there some sort of penalty that should be given for incorrect completion of task. Imagine if it's a really meandering river, that would mean that if they actually WALKED instead of RAFTED down the river, they could have saved so much more time because it all seemed really near? They missed three bridges and are still able to walk ALL the way back showing that it's completely in walking distance for the river Detour tasks?
Anyone has the clue image of the Detour? It just seems puzzling to me that they were able to go 4th to 1st on foot.. and we all know that sometimes road travel is faster than water travel.
I certainly hope that did not happen.
Jobby:
I relooked the scene and Dave and Connor ran down on land to the man handing out the Detour completion clue, while the others arrived on RAFT.
When Leo and Jamal received their clue, they said "CONTINUE DOWN THE RIVER", which they were already using raft at that time so the clue would naturally mean to use the raft. So if Dave and Connor ended up running down instead (which now it seems like), then that isn't really fair? If the Cowboys, Margie and Luke or Leo and Jamal were to run instead of rafted down, they would have been before Dave and Connor.

PS: I wish they stop trying really hard to show a negative side of Luke this season?
First leg we see Margie saying that Luke held his hand and run and she can't do it because he's fast and she's not (trying to show that he's inconsiderate).
Second leg the only memorable thing I remembered about Luke was how Luke refused to listen to his mom right at the start when he just sent a taxi driver off and Margie was like let me talk to him.
This leg they were relatively not shown and then at the end of the episode, we got reminded how Luke's really breaking under pressure.
:res:

I expect production calculated exactly what Dave and Connor could do. They may have actually gone FURTHER.
And I love Luke, but we all know that he does becomes frustrated easily...surfboards, tea, and now bartending. Handling these frustrating tasks more calmly would have helped him enormously....
Jobby:
But how did they just go from 4th to 1st? It just doesn't make sense. Suddenly it becomes an American Idol edit this season. :funny:
