Just checked... He said W-Turn.

Alright, thanks! :tup:
In that case, a single U-turn will be really exciting to see! :yess: I wonder how many fans will welcome it back. :please:

No, they just went to the side of the restaurant to read the clue (then the boys could come in and check their RB result).
RachelLeVega:
What an okay leg! :grins: I am reverting back to a drunken TAR after-show review after drinking three vodka shots. :lol:
*Note: Some parts of this not actually true, I just make poor typing choices when I have a tad bit too much alcohol.
LEG 8 (The Netherlands --> Poland) EPISODE REVIEW
We start off in The Netherlands and fly to Krakow, Poland, which at first sight, closely resembles Rotterdam too. Too awkward... We are then taken to a pool in the middle of somewhere looking like nowhere where teams chose to get drenched for their next clue. Did somebody on the new TAR route planning cast say ratings fail yet?
DETOUR: (Working Like Miners or Playing Like Beggars)
Although the courage level between the two tasks seemed balanced, I only liked the stuff from the Wieliczka Salt Mine. Even with that said, the mine didn't seem to be used to its full potential giving only a taste of the work field by hauling one log and pushing one cart filled with salt. I think I can do that in half an hour with one arm tied behind my back. :res: I cannot find kinder words to describe the latter other than: Why beg for money again?! This is the type of task that I really can not stand. I felt so sorry for Tiffany & Krista having to offer incentives to finish the task. The piano crashing into cracks and bumps along the cobblestone and sidewalks were fun to watch though.
DEROUE ACORESDETOUR SCORES: 8/10
Trying to stay as sober and honest as possible for this, I really liked the historical snippet of Oskar Schindler. I believe it's a groundbreaking feat for a season like this to take on. I am truly appreciative of this emotionally humbling moment. And then we run off to the Jewish Quarters where we will dance, but not before...
ROADBLOCK: (Who is cuckoo for kugel?)
I thought this would be a nice and very mind-boggling task, but instead, in this day and age, everything is at a hand's grasp by locals using their smartphones to heck the items off the racers' list. How exciting... Still pretty courageous to find all the items for yourself.
ROADBLOCK SCORE: 8.5/10 (It had potential, but didn't Phil say teams had to deliver the food to a table inside the restaurant?)
And we get our athleticism-mance at the end of the episode as Tiffany & Krista and Tanner & Josh fall in love with each others' racing spirits and personality. How adorable! Fortunately or unfortunately, this ends with a non-elimination Leg.
Mozeltov? (Indifferently drinking a shot of vodka)
OVERALL: 8.7/10
Don't like the ratings? In the words of Mirna of Poland:
"Just eat the damn thing!"
