Whoever created this free-range and double-whammy Roadblock deserves the world. One of my favorite tasks so far, and it brought a ton of classic Race entertainment with its open-ended method and interpretation. The four-way battle between Kristine, Simone, Chelsie, and Paige co-signs a signature moment of this season. Between racers struggling to assemble their roller trays, Jas and Simone having theirs come apart during the rally, major and potential placement shifts, and so many teams feeling like they were falling out of the race with inadequate times, it truly made individual racers shine from just their team. Hoping for more moments like these in the coming legs because the drama was beautiful!

Dubrovnik is 2-for-2 seeking out the best, worst, and most unhinged and random reactions of TAR and I'm over here laughing. :funny: I thought the Detour was a good split between the monkfish filleting and chum bucket/net delivery, the U-Turn location hunt and the fallout over the results at the Roadblock peanut gallery was a fun moment, and Izzy & Paige's grudge against Jas & Jag was reminiscent of Kelly & Christy stewing over Nick & Starr. I enjoyed this leg and the edit so much. Jack & Chelsie and Rubina & Kristine are solidified as my favorites of this season and I can't wait to see what comes about next week. Really miss live updating, especially this episode, but I'm glad to still watch whenever I have time after work.

Way more edge of your seat moments here compared to the Survivor episode that aired before it. First leg with a complete equalizer of all of teams, which was needed considering how small the old section of Dubrovnik is. That was a pretty iconic reaction from Izzy to being U-Turned, though fortunately for her the Roadblock allowed a lot of time to catch up. The fact that it came down to a 4-way race to avoid elimination was intense.

Quite an emotional finish for Hannah & Simone. They showed that they could bounce back before, but sadly lightning did not strike twice.

That Roadblock was deceptively challenging. It wasn't just "ride down a hill", the racers who did a crappy job building their cart ended up being the slower ones.

It's kinda fun when they don't tip off the U-Turn to the teams until right before they race to it.* What an epic location for the U-Turn board- it made its return in style!

I echo the compliments of the Roadblock. Not only is it a good two-part challenge on paper, it worked out great in practice to have a 4-way race to stay out of last (which was then whittled down to 3-way and 2-way).

Whenever 2 teams are U-Turned, at least one will survive to the next leg. Here, both teams survived, and both seem very fired up about coming back with a vengeance on the next leg. Before, the pre-existing relationships of Big Brother didn't feel like they were adding much substance to the Race. Now, with this U-Turn drama, the relationships are augmenting the storyline. Being U-Turned is pretext for reprisal, and neither Jas & Jag nor Joseph & Adam have a Courtesy Of Pass anymore...

*It's also more fun when teams can't see what the Roadblock task is before they decide who has to do it, but I digress
