A much more balanced leg, excited for who won the leg, sad to see the eliminated team to be confirmed.
The use of the pass both made sense, as much as that pretty much doomed the girls, especially after they got stuck behind the drag queens, after they got lost. If they had not gotten lost on the way to the pass board, they would have probably survived.

Update from rewatch, as I missed some parts when the stream lagged.
- I completely missed the Samsung sponsor insert during one of those lag.
- Guru is back, with the most pointless sign-up board, as it mostly send them into a HOO with the Tarot. It only teased how much self-driving would affect some of the outcomes, as self-driving mostly shifted placements.
- Guru Diving ARI, was insteresting, but really weird way of having a sponsor insert. Swimming and diving ability definitely affected placements. It all made this into Tyler and Kayleen leg, they were ahead from tarot, and just never let go. While struggling at this task sent the girls to the back of the pack.
- Despal saying that the sand side of the detour would be easy. "Oh my"....
- As stated elsewhere, really sad to see the Drag Queens outlast the girls.

I had a couple of thoughts about the pass. Assume you are Ty & Kay and have been placed on the board.
You see that Ben & Anwar are approaching, can you put them on the board? Or do you have to wait for them to open their next clue before you can do anything?
If you can put them on the board, what happens then? I assume you must both wait until the next team arrive before any of you can move?

So given this I get the impression that it is either not allowed or pointless to apply the pass to the next team which arrives. Which is an interesting wrinkle to this game twist.

Back from vacaycay and finally able to watch the last 3 episodes...
So sad to see the girls go.... If only they had turned on the first drive to the taco shop, they would have survived (probably be at the same time as Deven and Amanda, as they would have been right after them). Also, the drag queens got lucky again team Derpal had been there for hours and they noticed the ones that they rebuild, that eliminated a good chunk of castle!
Alas c'est la vie!

I think this leg was great, lots of tasks to make the order change. I think the girls occupied all 7 positions during the leg:
First: During the sign-up board
Second: Starting the leg
Third: At the roadblock
4th: During the reading
5th: Leaving the roadblock
6th: To the taco shop
Last: Pitstop
