TAR 30 EPISODE 7 & 8 LIVE UPDATES/COMMENTARY WED 2/7/18 9-11PM EST
RachelLeVega:
We come back with teams in some kind of emotional disarray as they realize they are swapping partners. They will be racing together until further notice. Cody & Jess were 1st to finish and chose Kristi & Jen to swap partners with as both are relatively strong racers. Lucas & Brittany go with Alex & Conor because Brittany wants muscle on her side. And that ends up with Henry & Evan swapping with Eric & Daniel. Basically, an extended Intersection Roadblock.
This is gonna be sooo confusing. :drama
Swapped teams must make a raft and row around Imire Lake and search for a canteen for their next clue. Everyone gets to the lake and are oaring their butts off.
RachelLeVega:
Swappees are looking everywhere and Brittany spots the first.
Teams must go to a lookout tower where rangers survey the land for potential poachers. And this is also the location of their next clue will be.
Lucas falls into the lake while everyone is steadily rowing. Brittany bursts into song while compliments Alex appreciates her style.
DETOUR: Rhino Track or Bushwhack
In Rhino Track, teams must look for evidence of poaching evidence and place them on a map at the end of the horseback ride to receive their next clue. In Bushwhack, teams must replenish a ranger's water supply and drive a 4x4 across Zimbabwean bogs, if they can get out of the mess, to receive their next clue.
Henry & Evan and Lucas & Conor find their clues and I'm suddenly regretting this twist.
RachelLeVega:
Jessica & Kristi are traveling to the supply depot and suddenly change Detours because neither of them can drive stick shift. Henry & Daniel? are still rowing while Jen & Cody find the Detour clue. They choose the 4x4 choice while Jessica & Kristi are at the detective work option. Jen is freaking out. "Oh my gosh, this is hard."
cCommercials.
RachelLeVega:
Commercials are over and Jen is regretting their choice while Cody assures they did the right thing. Brittany & Alex document the first piece of evidence. Meanwhile, Kristi tells Jessica she is so cute to replicate Cody. Henry & Evan and Eric & Daniel are on their way to split up the tasks between each other too. I think.
Cody & Jen are driving and QUICKLY SPOT RHINOS, ZEBRAS, WARTHOGS, oh my! We are also shown "Little Bambis" (perfect title quote) as Jessica & Kristi enjoy the scenery. Cody & Jen use their feet to find a shallow spot to drive their 4x4 across. All teams are making some progress on both tasks. Cody & Jen successfully cross the 1st ravine while Eric & Henry and Lucas & Conor arrive at the first bog.
Alex finishes the crossing while Cody & Jen find the water tank at the dig site. They replace that tank with a plastic jug and move onto driving back. Alex and Lucas also finish up this part and are on each other's tail despite the very sleepy music playing. I feel like this is just wildlife observatory marketing....
RachelLeVega:
Cody & Jen drive across the 2nd bog, an ever deeper one, and reveals he has had 4x4 experience prior to the race. "I really hope that other challenge was more meticulous." Jessica & Kristi are enjoying the site and find their 5th and 6th poaching relics.
Meanwhile, Alex nearly faceplants in the muck, but end up STUCK in the 2nd bog. At the other Detour, teams are finding relics.
Cody & Jen get their clue!
ROUTE INFO: Make your way to the Savannah Plains Overlook, the next Pit Stop. Last team to check in may be eliminated. Yeah right.
Lucas tries pulling the jeep out of the mud.
Cody & Jen arrive 1st at the Pit Stop, HOWEVER, they must wait for both of their teammates to arrive. :zz:
Everyone doing very well, except for Lucas & Conor.
