Shelisa's reaction to Derek's boleadora throws was the best thing about the first half of the episode

Super disappointed at Amber wanting to stay and help at the first RB. At a Roadblock, your own race partner isn't allowed to help you, yet someone from another team can come over to your workstation and give you the answer. Ugh. It takes the "Amazing" out of "Amazing Race" to see a racer be able to take that kind of escape hatch.
That said, as it stands, I do concede that helping other teams can be a strategic move in some circumstances. So there has to be something that can be done to remove the incentives teams might have to gift other teams with help to this extent.

Rod getting the sports RB on the first try was the most predictable thing ever.

Too bad we didn't see anyone doing the fingerprinting detour; forensics is quite an intriguing topic. It's possible Derek & Shelisa chose it given their occupations but they were too far behind to catch up via either Detour.


Starting to hate the annoying Mother & Son Team. Amber actually staying, helping and sobbing at the Rally RB is one of the worst I've seen across all seasons of TAR. Like this is Amazing Race not Amazing Friend. I hope this alliance crumbles very soon. I can't wait for it's demise. I want them to experience downfall a la Mine Five (Eswar & Aparna, DeAngelo & Gary). I hope the one from the alliance that makes F3 does not win.

Finally someone other than the boyfriends win a leg  :conf:

The alliance thing gets annoying and then by the end of the leg the two FF teams start teaming up together  :groan:

Can we get over this the next week?

Happy that Juan & Shane won 1st.  Well-deserved. Loved this leg in Argentina. This and Colombia's are my favorites so far.

I miss when tasks weren’t so consistently answer-based

Good job Alenaveda on identifying the locations, both here and in the Live Sightings thread!

If we combine kitesurfing locations in Montevideo with the rightward hook on the beach, I think the Pit Stop could be at Playa Malvín, east of town.

The singing stage is set up on Plaza Juan Ramón Gomez, a block and a half away from the drummers on Isla de Flores between Minas and Magallanes.
A shame they miss the oppotunity to go to Estadio Centenario  :'(

I wonder which one of the Murgas is involved on the Detour. The home of "Agarrate Catalina" is placed in that area, not so far from where both sides are performed, so maybe them?

“I don’t mind the alliances—I think there’s something really exciting about that, and when other teams don’t even know there’s an alliance or they think that they’re part of an alliance,” she said. “I like all that intrigue; I think that’s kind of fun. But, you know, helping a team that might be struggling because you want them to advance over another team? I think we have to look at that, and I don’t know what the answer to that as yet, but it’s definitely something we’re going to look at.”

The existence of alliances, and helping others that are struggling, is not the same as abjectly providing the correct answer to someone and solving the Roadblock for them. THAT is what I assumed was going to be banned in future seasons after the response to Season 32.

I guess that's in the eye of the beholder then.
