TARUS15 - Globetrotters first & Marcy/Ron eliminated.

I have come up with a different writing style for this episode of TAR15, and I want to know how it looks. Since this was one of those episodes that had a lot of stuff going on, such as half the teams on such and such, the other half on the other such and such, I am giving an individual summary of how the team performed on this leg. I’ll start with all the tasks, and put the team summaries and review of them in placement order.

THE TASKS OF LEG 03: The teams traveled back to Ho Chi Mihn City, where they to snatch a bullet from a dragon in a puppet theatre, where they received a stamp to a post office. In the detour, they had to either carry a cute, wooden animal across a park to get five balloons, or actually use their brains to search for letters on motorbikes and then scramble that word (SUCLAP) which is Vietnamese for independence. Then, in the roadblock, teams had to simply take some sort of electronic devise apart.

1ST - Herb/Nate - Flight/Time/Big Easy easily got the lead from the puppet theatre all the way to first place. They did well on the Child’s play detour and easily took down the roadblock. The are probably going to be the team to beat, and I truly wonder why Marcy said in Elimination station they’ll be the next team out, unless they get U-Turned, which we hope doesn’t happen.

2ND - Meghan/Cheyne - They are also running a solid race so far, they got a good taxi which put them in the front of the pack and did exceptionally well on the detour and roadblock. They could have a potential good run on this race, despite the abundance of completive nature we have this season.

3RD - Gary/Mat - They are doing well, surprisingly, and I really didn’t think that would happen for them. I guess, they have surprised me, just like I thought Mel/Mike would go early in TAR14, they could have that happen to them.

4TH - Brian/Ericka - This is our comeback team, they started the leg in last, and came to the pit stop in fourth place. Hey nicknamed themselves Team Zebra, and seemed to be a lot calmer this leg than last leg a lot. I’m still thinking I’ll be rooting for them, simply because I still love their positive message their trying to spread, and really feel they’ll have a chance in this race.

5TH - Sam/Dan - These two guys were really arguing a lot this episode, but not the most, though. I really don’t think we’ll get must positively vibes from this duo. They’ll probably get annoying, just like Lance/Keri. They are, however, decent racers so far, and could have a bit of potential to go far in the race.

6TH - Maria/Tiffany - They are also not bad racers, and could really do well on this show. They seem to have had the last two legs work out for them, and I’m ready to se if they can get to the front of the pack. We really didn’t get to see them react much with Sam/Dan, like they were last week, and it seems now that them being poker players isn’t being mentioned as a huge deal anymore.

7TH - Mika/Canaan - They are slowly getting better, but really need to step it up more than all of the other teams. I still like them as a team, but not really as much as I like Brian/Ericka. They are really looking like underdogs, but than again, some other teams were kind of in a similar situation for sure.

8TH - Zev/Justin - I’m not exactly sure how they got so far in the back of the pack, but I thought they’d be doing better than what they are now. Oh ell, and I don’t really remember much about them either. That’s too bad, because I really liked them the first leg.

9TH - Lance/Keri - I don’t see this team doing us much of a favor, as a mater of fact, I think they are this year’s fighting team. They really didn’t seem to have much luck this time, and I believe they would’ve been eliminated if Marcy/Ron chose the faster detour.

10th - Marcy/Ron were probably eliminated because they chose the opposing detour, in which all the other nine teams did child’s play, where they did Word Play. They were also the least edited team, which kind of had me feeling they weren’t going to last long after all.
