Seems like Rachel & Elissa were trying to have plausible deniability in the plan to U-Turn Nicole & Victor, but the way they backtracked pretty much backfired. For Nicole & Victor, I still don't get their anger at the Mat for being told that they might be U-Turned. In many ways this leg was reminiscent of the Swiss leg on TAR 24 in that this leg was essentially a prelude for U-Turn drama.

Vic & Nicole explained this on their podcast, rachel tried to manipulate them and when didnt go her way she just bullied nicole, and they never in alliance with rachel

In many ways this leg was reminiscent of the Swiss leg on TAR 24 in that this leg was essentially a prelude for U-Turn drama. This leg was also an interesting case in that I thought the teams were more entertaining this leg than in Uganda. At the same time, the tasks were worse than the Uganda tasks. The tasks were better than the TAR 24 tasks (not a high bar, I know), but the leg was pretty much decided after the 3K run. Happy to see self-driving return if only for half a leg, and I hope that it will continue on the next leg. Even if the leg wasn't great, one thing I will never fault TAR is the cinematography since Switzerland was stunning as usual. Ultimately, this leg consisted of fun tasks to do, but the tasks had very little variance.
Becca bribing the Reilly sisters with beer. :funny:
Colin feeling the love of the universe and Rachel not having it. :funny:
TAR providing a photo for the Boston PD. :funny:
Christie's look at the camera after seeing her instructor. :funny:
Colin acting like an action movie hero after leaving the helicopter. :funny:
Colin mooning Tyler & Korey. :funny:
Rachel & Elissa interrupting each other during the Pit Stop interview.
No mentions of swinging fat b******s or falling pants. >:(
Canyon Swing: Looks awesome, but if the show is going to do a task like this, then there needs to be a few opportunities for teams in the back to catch up. In this case, there weren't. TAR 27 did this perfectly.
Water Power: Location was lovely and the task seemed difficult on paper, but the teams made it look easy.
Water Drop: Looked like fun and would love to do it, but there really was no way for teams to pass each other.
2/5

Why? Seriously TAR 27 leg 5 did as poorly as this leg with task arrangement as the Underwater detour and the walking with lion task were also first-come-first-serve

Fairplay's dead grandma lie was quite funny in the context of the game. I prefer an anti-hero to the Rupert hero image we had to put up with in Survivor.
And of course very funny this season was the Afghanimals passing Victor and Nicole when they were silly enough to believe them concerning directions (did that grab them a first place and prize?). Rachel didn't win any prize for helping Victor and Nicole.

Now that u mention it, it quite funny when mr dimple interview his grandma in finale
but swear on dead families or even alive ones considered low move for any castaways
rachel hurtful to nicole with that line, and dont forget now theres 2 teams furious at rachel when they at mat
Nyoman_SB1:
i also confused about that argument and drama :gnome
The roadblock was fun, i'd love to try it. I was shock that the racer who performed the roadblock didn't use helmet for safety because they looked close to the cliff wall. Water Power detour looked easy because Afghanimals & Vicole got it in their first try. So glad we finally have self driving even though it was only half of the leg. Switzerland always has the best landscape and scenery but i wish the tasks were more difficult.
